Chapter 356: Chapter 343: Rarely Seen in the World
Knowing that today was Fan Wenxuan’s first day of teaching, and that he was staying for lunch, Zhuang Qingning asked Zhuang Mingli to join in for the midday meal and asked him to inform Mrs. He.
She then went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Fan Wenxuan, on the other hand, was sitting in the courtyard, sipping a fragrant cup of tea and watching Zhuang Qingsui playing with snowglobe with a stalk of foxtail grass.
With the greenery above, a lovely student by his side, and the prospect of delicious food, he felt exceptionally comfortable.
Fan Wenxuan felt teaching Zhuang Qingsui was the best thing he had done.
He couldn’t help but think that even the ruthless Chu Jinnian had his good days.
Before Fan Wenxuan could finish his musings, Zhuang Mingli came back, and Zhuang Qingning had already prepared lunch.
Since Zhuang Qingsui and Zhuang Mingli couldn’t eat spicy food, Zhuang Qingning made two bowls of clear soup. For her and Fan Wenxuan, she prepared two bowls of rich, oily, and spicy hot and sour soup noodles.
Fan Wenxuan looked at the vibrant and aromatic hot and sour soup, and his mouth started to water. He didn’t care about his guests’ manners and began to eat.
Sour, spicy, fragrant…
If these words were to be combined, they could only be described as “delicious”.
Fan Wenxuan felt as if all his pores were open, and the strong sour and spicy taste in his mouth, and the sweat beads on his forehead due to the hot weather and spicy food, made him feel incredibly comfortable.
The hot and sour noodles were delicious enough, but the key was the crunchy crust and fragrant filling of the pastry that came with it. Each bite was full of meaty flavor, which complemented the hot and sour noodles. It was like the perfect harmony and natural combination of red flowers and green leaves.
In short, Fan Wenxuan felt this was the best meal he’d had since leaving the capital city.
Exhilarating!
“What’s the name of this cake? It’s so delicious!” Fan Wenxuan couldn’t help but ask.
He had tasted all kinds of delicious food in the streets of the capital city, but he had never tasted such a pastry.
“It’s called Guokui,” Zhuang Qingning replied with a smile. “It’s a snack from Bashu region. I heard from someone who had been there about its deliciousness when paired with hot and sour noodles, so I tried making it according to his description, and it’s indeed tasty.”
Zhuang Qingning casually lied.
“It turns out to be Guokui.” Fan Wenxuan stared at the crispy pastry in his hand for a long time and praised, “The name is quite unique, and it tastes great.”
When Fan Wenxuan left, he was quite satisfied.
But on his way back, he was pondering over a very important problem…
He had to find a way to marry Zhuang Qingning to one of his excellent students. In this way, as a teacher, he could have a legitimate excuse to freeload meals anytime.
As for freeloading meals now as Zhuang Qingsui’s teacher…
Yes, he could for now.
But Zhuang Qingning was going to get married in the future. Even as her sister’s teacher, he wouldn’t be able to freeload from her future marital home, would he?
So, he had to choose the right in-law family!
