At this moment, Gu Nan felt even more uncomfortable watching Su Niannian smile and talk to Li Ergou.

Su Niannian ignored him all day, but when she saw Li Ergou, she greeted him very warmly.

The feeling was as if a stone was pressing on Gu Nan's chest, making it difficult to breathe.

Mother Gu invited everyone to sit down, and Su Niannian also placed the freshly steamed cornbread buns on the table.

It's a large, yellow steamed bun made from cornmeal and wheat flour.

The dough looks like it's risen very well; it's very fluffy.

Li Ergou's mouth watered as he looked at the braised pork and stir-fried pork in front of him.

Although the Li family also received meat yesterday, his mother only cut a few slices when stewing the vegetables, so it only had a slight meaty flavor. It was nothing like the Gu family, who seemed to have eaten even better food than during the New Year.

In particular, Su Niannian's cooking skills are absolutely amazing.

How could pig offal smell like that?

Seeing Li Ergou like this, Gu's mother smiled and urged everyone to start eating.

In the eldest brother's room, there was also a bowl of braised pork offal and a plate of stir-fried pork.

It wasn't that Gu's mother and Gu Nan didn't want their eldest brother to come out and eat with them, but rather that their eldest brother simply didn't want to leave the house or see anyone.

Several people picked up a piece of pork offal and put it in their mouths.

The rich flavor of braised meat spread throughout the mouth.

The pork liver absorbed the broth and became very flavorful, with a slightly grainy texture.

Pig heart, pig stomach, and pig intestines are all very chewy.

The pig lungs were tender and smooth, and very delicious.

Because it contains various parts of the pig's offal, each part has a slightly different texture.

But whether it's pig liver, pig heart, pig lungs, pig stomach, or pig intestines, they are all delicious.

It was the best they had ever tasted.

Gu Nan thought that the girl in front of him was really amazing.

Something that costs only a penny per pound can be made so delicious.

Moreover, his medical skills must be top-notch.

My mother's condition is clearly much better today than yesterday.

Especially after taking that medicine, I felt like my whole state of being was different.

Gu Nan was increasingly convinced that the little girl could cure him in less than a month.

A month later, Gu Nan will try to get the brigade to issue a letter of introduction so he can take his mother to the city for another check-up.

"Su, you're amazing! I've never eaten anything this delicious in my life. Is this really pig offal??"

Er Gou was absolutely amazed when he tasted Su Niannian's cooking for the first time. He had never eaten anything so delicious in his entire life.

It's so delicious I want to do somersaults and scream!

When Gu Ningning and her mother saw Li Ergou like this, they couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

Li Ergou scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"It really is so delicious! You're amazing!" Although Li Ergou was a little embarrassed, he wasn't exaggerating at all; he genuinely thought it was incredibly delicious.

If it's so delicious, you'll bite your tongue off.

Then eat the yellow steamed bun in your hand.

It's soft and delicious, with a natural cornmeal aroma, but it's very smooth and doesn't hurt your throat at all. It also has a hint of sweetness.

Li Ergou even had the illusion that eating this stuff had made him feel much more energetic.

Because it was made for the Gu family, Su Niannian added spiritual spring water.

"Actually, it's nothing much, just that I put in a lot of seasoning. It removed the fishy and earthy smell of the offal." Su Niannian said with a smile, picking up a piece of pig lung and putting it into Gu's mother's bowl.

"Auntie, eat more; it's good to have something similar to nourish it."

Then he picked up a piece of pork belly from the stir-fried pork and put it on Gu Ningning's plate.

At this moment, Li Ergou, for some unknown reason, saw Su Niannian serving food to the two of them, and shamelessly stretched out his bowl as well.

A dark glint appeared in Gu Nan's eyes. His lips twitched involuntarily.

Su Niannian immediately realized this. Although she also wanted to annoy Gu Nan, she still knew her limits.

Besides, it wouldn't be good if I served food to Li Ergou and he misunderstood something.

After all, Li Ergou was Gu Nan's good brother, and the two often secretly hunted together to sell their catch.

Although Li Ergou was a distant relative of Village Chief Li, they were already beyond the third degree of kinship. Li Ergou and Village Chief Li's family were not close, so Village Chief Li did not take much care of Li Ergou's family.

His family's living conditions were not good either. If it weren't for Gu Nan helping him earn money, they would probably be a very poor family.

Seeing that Su Niannian had no intention of serving him any food, Li Ergou could only chuckle awkwardly and then serve himself some food.

After taking a couple more bites, Li Ergou quickly forgot about the little incident because of the delicious food.

After Su Niannian finished eating, she packed some braised pork offal for Song Zhaodi in an aluminum lunchbox before heading back to the educated youth settlement.

"Niannian, won't you eat something? You're too thin, you always eat so little," Gu's mother asked with some concern.

Su Niannian's appetite is really too small.

"No, I have to go back early. I don't want Song Zhiqing to worry about me, and I'm also worried that she'll go hungry since we cook together." Su Niannian smiled and prepared to leave.

"Niannian, what should we do with the remaining braised pork offal?" Su Niannian still had a lot left over!

"It's alright, you can keep it and eat it. It's all just cheap stuff anyway."

Actually, Su Niannian bought so many pig offal dishes to let Gu Nan taste them and see if they were good. If he thought they were good, she could make them and sell them on the black market.

But there's no rush. She has many ways to make money and isn't in a hurry.

Moreover, the current environment does not allow for private transactions, and going to the black market also carries risks.

Her main task now is to win over Gu Nan.

I'll leave him alone for a couple of days and see what he thinks. If he likes me, he'll eventually show it.

Li Ergou was eating happily, completely forgetting that he had come to see Gu Nan on important business.

"Gu Nan, why don't you go and see Niannian off?" Gu's mother said to Gu Nan. It was already getting dark, and after all, she was just a young girl; it wasn't very safe for her to walk alone.

Upon hearing this, Gu Nan immediately put down his chopsticks and stood up.

But just as he stood up, he heard Su Niannian's gentle and calm voice.

"No need, I can manage on my own." Su Niannian refused!

She refused his offer to take her.

Gu Nan, who was standing still, couldn't help but be stunned.

Yesterday, Mingming offered to take her home, and she happily agreed.

Why today...

Do I not need to take her there myself today?

"Auntie, you need to rest more and take good care of yourself. I'll come back the day after tomorrow to brew you some medicine." Su Niannian said, waving her hand, and picked up her basket and left.

Gu Nan stood there, feeling even emptier inside.

He didn't even react when Li Ergou spoke to him from the side.

The little girl was angry, really angry.

He originally thought that this way the young girl wouldn't have her reputation tarnished by him, which was a good thing.

But why do I feel so sad?
