Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

Chapter 170 Celebrating a Birthday

To confirm whether the problem was with the bok choy, Wang Fei also tried other dishes, which tasted as delicious as ever. Father Jiang's cooking skills were truly exceptional.

But upon closer inspection, he still felt that the green vegetables had a unique flavor, so he reached for the two green vegetables with his chopsticks. He even felt that the tofu in the bok choy had absorbed a wonderful flavor, even better than meat.

The three of them buried themselves in the two vegetarian dishes in front of them, not giving a second glance to the other large fish and meat dishes.

This surprised the others at the table. Aunt Jiang glanced at the three of them and said, "Why are these three kids eating vegetarian food? I bought some really good food today, including crayfish. I remember you three really like crayfish, especially since it was made by a chef today."

Aunt Jiang was also puzzled, "Is this dish really that delicious?"

Jiang Man just shook her head when she heard this, "Hmm, Aunt and Second Aunt, these green vegetables are still the best."

Hearing this, Wang's father became curious. Seeing his silly son eating so happily, he also reached out with his chopsticks, saying, "Since you all say this dish is delicious, let me try it."

He casually picked up a bok choy, tossed it into his mouth, and chewed it absentmindedly.

The result was amazing! His eyes lit up. "Wow, you guys have to try this vegetable! It's incredible! It's just as good as beef and seafood, and it tastes even fresher and tastier."

"Wow, if you put it that way, I'll have to try it."

Aunt Jiang also casually picked up a little to eat, and this time she didn't say anything and silently sped up her eating speed.

Looking at her with suspicion, could it be that her daughter really didn't buy things randomly this time? She tentatively picked up a piece of vegetables with her chopsticks, ate it, and then remained silent.

Next, the adults at the table competed with Jiang Cha and the others for vegetables.

That's right, it's competition.

At first, it was fine when only the three children were eating. Although the three of them ate quickly, they still took some time to savor the food, since it was so delicious that it tasted even better with rice.

But once Jiang's mother and the other adults joined in, the atmosphere at the dinner table became tense.

"Dad, what are you doing? Give me this last piece of lettuce."

Wang Fei held onto the lettuce tightly with his chopsticks; it was the last leaf.

"Hey, you little rascal, why are you trying to take it from your dad? You've already eaten several pieces, this one should be mine."

Jiang Cha also complained a few times, "Mom, why did you scoop out such a big bowl of soup at the beginning? Half of the soup has already been gone."

Jiang's mother didn't care about all that, "No way, you ate quite a lot just now, what's a little bit for your mother?"

A group of people started scrambling for it. Jiang Man even took the empty oyster sauce plate, washing it with rice and making a dish of oyster sauce lettuce scraps mixed with rice.

The commotion at the table caught the attention of Grandpa and Grandma Jiang. Grandma Jiang looked over curiously and asked, "What are Xiaocha and the others doing?"

Father Jiang glanced at it and shook his head. "They're just messing around. Such a big group of people went and grabbed two plates of vegetables."

When Grandma Jiang saw this, she called out to the children, "Cha Cha, Man Man, Xiao Fei, if you want some vegetables, there are still some here. Just come over and get them."

The two vegetarian dishes in front of Grandma Jiang haven't been touched yet; everyone's busy eating the other dishes.

The three, who had been looking dejected, immediately raised their heads upon hearing this, their eyes shining like a husky's. "Really, Grandma/Grandma!"

Grandma Jiang was amused by their expressions and laughed heartily. "Of course it's true, come and eat!"

As soon as Grandma Jiang finished speaking, the three of them wanted to take action.

But Jiang Cha thought of something and stopped the other two, "No, Grandma, you should try it first. I bought this especially for everyone to eat together, especially since it's your birthday today, you should try it."

The other two stopped moving when they heard this. Although they really wanted to eat, it was Grandma's birthday after all, so they should let her try it first.

Jiang Cha even got up and went to Grandma Jiang's side, using a spoon to scoop a bowl of bok choy and tofu soup for her and Grandpa, saying, "Here, you two eat first."

"Good, good, good, look how filial my good children are."

Grandma Jiang smiled and picked up the cabbage soup in front of her, took a sip, and then suddenly cried out in pain.

"Oh dear, this soup!"

The old lady's voice drew everyone's attention.

"What's wrong, Mom? Is it too hot?"

"What's wrong, Mom? Is the soup not to your liking?"

Before Grandma Jiang could say anything, Grandpa Jiang started groaning in pain as he listened to their voices, but he did say something else.

"Oh my, this soup is so delicious, so flavorful."

Father Jiang was puzzled. It turned out that the soup was just too delicious, not that the soup didn't suit his taste or for any other reason.

Uncle Jiang didn't pay much attention. "My second son's cooking skills have always been pretty good. I think my parents haven't had his cooking in a long time. His soups are always delicious."

Grandma Jiang shook her head, "The eldest son is really different this time. This soup is completely different from the one the second son used to make, and it tastes even better."

Grandpa Jiang nodded, "Yes, yes, it's completely different from before. This soup today made me feel so comfortable."

As people get older, they are more prone to illness. Grandpa Jiang had his blood sugar and blood pressure checked before, and the doctor advised him to pay more attention to his diet, not to eat too much meat and fish, and to remember to exercise more, otherwise he would easily develop high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol.

So he just tasted the big fish and meat dishes in front of him today, but he didn't expect this bowl of tofu soup to be so to his liking.

The soup combines the flavor of bok choy with the bean flavor of fresh mushrooms and tofu. There are no other complicated seasonings added; just a little salt. It tastes exceptionally good.

Jiang Cha felt particularly proud when she heard this. She said to her uncle, "Uncle, you've got the wrong person this time. Dad's cooking skills are excellent, but I carefully selected and bought these dishes. No other dishes taste as good as these, which is why Grandpa and Grandma like them so much."

"Wow, Xiao Cha is so amazing! She can pick such good vegetables." Uncle Jiang said with a smile after hearing this.

"Of course not, Uncle, you should try it."

As soon as Jiang Cha finished speaking, the others at the table also started to eat. They were also curious about what kind of dish it was that could make the old people and children praise it so much.

Some people picked up lettuce, while others scooped up a bowl of soup. Their movements were quite polite, and each person only took a little bit.

Father Jiang didn't care much. What good could it be? It was just ordinary food.

All thoughts ceased the moment everyone started eating.

They stared at each other, dumbfounded.

Finally realizing what was happening, the aunt scooped up a spoon and put a large spoonful into her own bowl.

She arrived first, and the food was there!
