章 39: Chapter 39 Going Head-to-head

"What dish is that? It smells so good, I could smell it from far away," Uncle Hui said as soon as he entered the kitchen, his voice loud.

"Yes, indeed. I could smell it as soon as I left the main room," Auntie Hui chimed in from beside him.

"Mmm, Jiaojiao is getting better and better at cooking," Big Brother Feng Xi said with a laugh, giving her a thumbs up.

"Heh, this is my first time eating the Feng family's little sister's cooking. It smells good; I bet it tastes even better," Zhang Yijiang said, speaking more than he usually did.

"Hehe, then please try the tofu feast I made tonight and see how it tastes," she said, sitting next to her brother, her face flushed with embarrassment from the praise.

"Then we won't be shy," Jiaojiao said while helping herself to the food and bringing it to her mouth. She swallowed quickly, slurping to cool the hot food, and kept saying how delicious it was.

The meal was eaten amidst soft laughter and conversation.
