Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Aunty Yu was not good at being turned down. She looked at her gloomily. “As you wish. Remember to clean up.”

“Alright!” Zuo Weiyi nodded.

Aunty Yu took a look at her, then turned to leave. She went back to her own room to rest.

After Aunty Yu left, Zuo Weiyi entered the kitchen. She opened the refrigerator and discovered some premium ingredients stored within like steaks and seafood. She didn’t know how to cook these.

She was born into an ordinary family. All she knew how to prepare were some simple dishes like tomato and egg stir-fry, green pepper fried eggs, fried rice with eggs…

Oh, yes, fried rice with eggs!

She suddenly thought of fried rice with eggs. Zuo Weiyi regained her senses and saw some eggs in the refrigerator.

Then, she opened the rice cooker and was disappointed not to find any leftover rice.

However, there was uncooked rice on the shelf beside her.

She thought, why not cook the rice first before frying?

After all, she had not eaten fried rice with eggs for quite some time.

Previously, her mother would occasionally cook fried rice with eggs for breakfast and she loved it.

She took the rice cooker pot with one hand and washed it under the running faucet. Then, she poured some rice into it and washed the rice.

This was indeed a rich family. Even the rice cooker was a premium product. The rice cooked in just eight minutes and every grain was glistening.

After forty minutes, she finally had a plate of aromatic fried rice with eggs.

Zuo Weiyi sat at the dining table, about to start eating.

Just then, she could hear the sound of someone in slippers walking toward the dining hall.

She raised her head and saw Shi Nuannuan showing up curiously.

“Wow, how aromatic. What are you eating?”

Shi Nuannuan had taken a short nap and woken up. When she came downstairs, she could smell the aroma.

She came in following the aroma and saw Zuo Weiyi eating at the dining table.

She walked into the dining hall and sat right across from Zuo Weiyi. She stared curiously at the plate of fried rice with eggs.

She had seen this but had not tried it.

“Fried rice with eggs?”

Zuo Weiyi nodded and replied, “Yes.” This was followed by a polite question. “Would you like to have some?”

Although she was hungry, she had cooked a big plate. She thought it would be enough for two.

Anyway, three hours later, they would be having their dinner.

Shi Nuannuan nodded excitedly.

“Yes, please!”

She had always wanted to try fried rice with eggs but their chefs had never cooked this dish before.

When they dined out at restaurants, she would forget to order the dish.

However, their family would go to big restaurants and fine dining restaurants, and it seemed like these restaurants did not serve this dish.

Zuo Weiyi smiled and walked into the kitchen to get another set of bowl and chopsticks. She divided the fried rice into two portions, one for herself and one for Shi Nuannuan.

Both girls started eating.

Shi Nuannuan took a spoonful and thought that it was delicious. She looked at Zuo Weiyi and asked, “Did you cook this?”

“Yes.”

Shi Nuannuan smiled and gave her a thumbs up. “Superb!”

After eating, Shi Nuannuan left the dining hall satisfied.

Zuo Weiyi continued cleaning up.

When it was time to wash the dishes, Zuo Weiyi remembered that the doctor had told her not to wet her injured hand. However, it was difficult to wash the dishes with one hand.

Looking at her injured hand, Zuo Weiyi pursed her lips and was deep in thought.

It should be fine if she wet her hand a little, shouldn’t it?

She remembered Aunty Yu telling her to clean up after meal.
