Chapter 391: The farmhouse (1/2)

”Mhmm, this meat is so good. As expected of sister, she's a genius at anything she puts her hand on,” Liz said as she bit on the piece of chicken meat.

”Your brother prepared fresh chicken meat today since you guys were coming. That's why it's so tasty. I merely added a bit of flair,” Helen said.

”I have tried cooking, but I can never get it to your level. Tell me, where did you learn it from? Were you learning culinary art before you met my brother?” Liz asked.

”Of course not. I learned it all from the cookbooks that the people gave us from those restaurants your brother sells to. You just have to follow the recipe, and you can easily make the chicken this perfect too,” Helen said.

The other 4 people in the dining room ate without making any sounds, but they too couldn't deny how good the food was.

”I'm sometimes surprised how both Alex and big brother managed to stay in shape when they got to eat this delicious a meal all the time,” Liz said.

”Haha, I wonder that too. I think their metabolism is just too high,” Helen said.

”So, how're your classes going?” Alex's father spoke, trying to change the topic from food to something else.

”Yeah, it's good. Our assignments are coming up soon for this semester,” Alex said.

”Oh, so quick. I guess that makes sense,” Helen said. ”What about you Hannah?”

”My classes ended 2 weeks ago. I'm just waiting for the exams and I'm done with university,” Hannah said.

”Oh wow, look at you. You're not even 22 and you're already finishing University. I remember when you were here last time. You were so excited about going to the University,” Helen said.

”Well, I doubt she will even need the university degree though,” Alex's father said from the side.

”What's that supposed to mean?” Helen got a little angry.

”What?” he made an innocent face. ”Don't you know how much these kids make nowadays? It's highly unlikely they will ever need an actual job. At least not one where they have to spill blood and sweat,” he said.

Helen still made an angry face. ”What? I'm saying that as a good thing,” he said. Then he turned towards Alex and Hannah, and said, ”Be frugal, learn to save your money, invest it somewhere. If you do all those things correctly, you won't ever need to worry about money with how much you guys are making.”

Hannah and Alex nodded. Alex had already done everything he could and had also made his cousin do the same thing. So, now they had most of their money in savings and only a little in use.

Hannah however had a regular supply of Spirit stones as opposed to Alex however, so she constantly had excess money in her bank account.

They talked for a little longer and took the conversation to the living room.
