Deng Chen was astonished to hear about fresh and tender vegetables being delivered even in the midst of winter, as no one had yet used greenhouses to grow vegetables during this season—Su Wenyue was a pioneer.
“To have fresh vegetables even in winter, did you grow them on your Zhuangzi? That’s truly amazing,” he said.
“It’s nothing much, just constructed a few greenhouses. The principle is quite simple; it’s just that no one had thought to go in this direction before. I also started it because I was getting fed up with having the same few things in winter, so I came up with this method.”
“Younger sister-in-law, you are truly ingenious. As they say, being early is not as good as being timely. I came at the right moment today. You must ensure enough portions for the meal; I have a hearty appetite,” Deng Chen reminded again, still reminiscing about the excellent food he had at the Han Mansion last time, and eagerly looking forward to it.
“Husband, Brother Deng, then please chat for a while. I will go to the kitchen and make the arrangements.”
Su Wenyue was in good spirits today, having acquired quite a few fine ingredients, and with the fresh vegetables Xiao Xi had brought, she had the kitchen prepare many dishes, and she even personally cooked a few of them herself—it was indeed a lavish meal.
Deng Chen was even more satisfied with this meal. Heeding his special request, Su Wenyue not only prepared a wide variety of dishes, but also made generous portions. Deng Chen’s stomach was almost bursting from eating so much, but with a table still laden with plenty of dishes, he couldn’t bear to stop eating. Han Yu was somewhat speechless seeing Deng Chen like this.
“Brother Deng, if you find the dishes my wife makes delicious, then come over next time. After all, we’ve now moved into the prefecture, and our families live not far from one another. Don’t overdo it by eating so much at once,” Han Yu suggested.
Hearing this, Deng Chen was somewhat embarrassed and finally laid down his chopsticks: “Okay, that’s settled then. I’ll be stopping by your mansion often in the future, and I hope, brother, that you won’t find me bothersome. It’s really amazing—where did your family’s chef learn such fine culinary skills? The cooking here is even better than the food at the best restaurant in the city.”
“Brother Deng, feel free to come over anytime,” Han Yu was eager to foster a friendship with Deng Chen and readily agreed. Deng Chen was not an easy person to get along with unless he truly shared interests and enjoyed good food; after all, there was not only Deng Chen’s status to consider but also the Deng Family behind him.
Deng Chen had come to the Han Mansion to scrounge for food and drink, and after eating his fill, he took his leave. Han Yu and Su Wenyue escorted him to the door.
“Brother Han, younger sister-in-law, there’s no need for such courtesy, otherwise, I won’t feel comfortable visiting next time,” Deng Chen said.
“Brother Deng, take care. In a few days, we can harvest vegetables from the Zhuangzi. I’ll have someone send some to your mansion then.”
“That’s great, I thank you in advance. I’ll let my sister-in-law try the freshness, too.”
After seeing off Deng Chen, Han Yu didn’t go elsewhere but pulled Su Wenyue back to their room. Su Wenyue still had some instructions to give in the kitchen, but Han Yu asked her to tend to them later; Su Wenyue could only follow Han Yu.
“Husband, what’s the rush? Couldn’t you wait for a while?” Su Wenyue was very curious about what Han Yu was in such a hurry to do.
