Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Even if You’re Fat, I Won’t Despise You Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Even if You’re Fat, I Won’t Despise You After Luo Qiao had finished ironing Grandpa’s clothes, she said, “Grandpa, Grandma, please try these on to see if they fit. If there’s anything that needs adjusting, I can make the changes.”
The old couple went back to their room to change, and after coming out to the living room with smiles, Zhou Guifang said with a laugh, “I must say, clothes made from this material really are comfortable.”
Luo Qiao smiled and replied, “I’m glad you like them.”
Early the next morning, Luo Qiao got up early. First, she ditated in the woods behind the house, then strolled over to the morning market. She bought two pairs of pig’s trotters and several carp, along with so tofu, before heading ho.
When she arrived, Grandpa was just about to head out to the morning market, but seeing what Luo Qiao had brought, he turned to his wife, “Now I don’t need to go; Qiaoqiao has already bought everything.”
Zhou Guifang took the items from Luo Qiao, “You don’t have to hurry to spend your money on everything. I just had your grandpa go to the morning market, and now you’ve brought everything back.”
Following behind into the kitchen, Luo Qiao said, “Why make such a big deal about it? I can only co ho a few days a month. Isn’t it okay for to pamper you a little?”
Zhou Guifang looked at the ingredients in her hands, “I can never win an argunt with you. Should we cook both these dishes or just one?”
Luo Qiao reached out to help Grandma clean the pig’s trotters, “Let’s cook both. It’s good for everyone to have a nutritious al, especially my sister-in-law. Later, I’ll take two thermos containers over; Sister Jialin can choose whichever she likes. And if there are leftovers, mom and brother-in-law will have so, so nothing will go to waste.”
As she spoke, Luo Qiao rembered that Lu Yichen was on duty today and would probably need to drop by to deliver so warmth. After all that happened yesterday, she figured he might be even more uncomfortable than her.
Soup with pig’s trotters was simring on the coal stove, while carp and tofu soup was cooking on the big stove. There were also stead buns and rolls made with mixed flour from a few days ago, which just needed to be stead again.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Luo Qiao said, “Grandma, I’m going upstairs to catch a bit more sleep.”
Zhou Guifang waved her hand with a smile, “Go on, go. You finally have a day off, and you got up so early.”
Once back in her room, Luo Qiao locked the door and entered her space. She harvested the ripe crops and planted new ones, collected the chicken and duck eggs, checked the ti, and then quickly went to the storeroom to get so lamb and beef.
She chopped up the at, seasoned the fillings to let the flavors ld, prepared the dough and let it rest, then started preparing the dishes: braised fish chunks, mixed cold salad, and bok choy with mushrooms.
Before cooking, Luo Qiao took out the thermal containers she bought down south, washed them and set them aside. After cooking the dishes and portioning them out, she put them in the storeroom to keep them fresh.
She prepared a lunch box of dumplings with both lamb and beef filling, then packed everything up and placed it in the storeroom. After tidying up, she had just left her room when she heard Stone knocking on the door, “Sister, it’s ti to eat.”
Luo Qiao opened the door, “Coming.”
The siblings went downstairs one after the other, with Luo Qiao comnting on the aroma, “That slls delicious.”
Zhou Guifang laughed, “Co eat, and afterward, aren’t you going to take so nourishing soup to Zheng Family’s place for your Sister Jialin?”
Luo Qiao checked the ti, “I estimate they are just having breakfast now. With all the paperwork and travel, I should arrive just in ti.”
Turning to her sister-in-law, she helped serve a bowl of fish soup, “Sister-in-law, drink up.”
As soon as Luo Qiao put down the bowl, Big Brother served Sister-in-law a bowl of pig’s trotter soup and placed it in front of her, then everyone just exchanged smiles.
Woo Yuni’s face was full of joy, “Qiaoqiao, you’ve said before that drinking fish soup is good for fetal developnt and can boost the mother’s immunity, while eating pig’s trotters can help with staying calm and is good for pregnant won’s beauty and complexion.”
“Grandma really took those words to heart. Lately, I’ve been drinking a lot of fish soup and eating pig’s trotters. I’m just worried if I keep eating like this, I’ll be so heavy I won’t be able to walk.”
At this mont, Luo Xuyan spoke up, “Eat all you want, as long as it’s good for you and the baby. Even if you get fat, I won’t mind.”
As soon as Luo Xuyan’s words were spoken, Woo Yuni gave him a sideways glance, “That sounds nice, but if I really do get as round as a ball, you won’t be able to stand it.”
Luo Qiao laughed, “Don’t worry, Sister-in-law. Eating nutritious food in moderation won’t make you ridiculously fat. Right now, you’re eating for two. How much weight could you really gain?
And even if you do put on so weight, it’s not a problem. I’ll make you so fat-burning tea, and you’ll slim down in no ti.”
