Chapter 27 Making Fried Chicken

Su Xiaoxiao was also quite puzzled that she now knew how to make cured chicken.

Moreover, she's so skillful that she can even make feather dusters. How can you argue with that?

When Su Xiaoxiao saw the chicken, she remembered that she always stewed it before. It was indeed nutritious, but it always tasted the same, and the children would get tired of it sooner or later.

So, Su Xiaoxiao decided to create some new ways for her child to eat.

She wanted to make fried chicken; she was tired of eating bland, watery food and craved something fried.

Su Xiaoxiao selected some chicken breasts, coated them with flour and egg wash, and started frying them in a pan.

The chicken legs were all fried, and the aroma filled the house. The children finally couldn't resist coming out from the inner room.

"Mom, what delicious food are you making?"

Su Xiaoxiao knew that neither Da Bao nor Xiao Bao had ever seen such a way of eating before.

Just then, Su Xiaoxiao's fried popcorn chicken and chicken legs came out of the pan. They were golden and crispy, and looked incredibly tempting.

The two little ones asked curiously.

"I'll give it to you to eat after it cools down."

Su Xiaoxiao picked up a fried chicken leg, blew on it a few times, and put it in a bowl.

She tore off a small piece of chicken leg meat with her hand and brought it to Da Bao's mouth.

Da Bao opened his mouth and started eating. As he ate, his saliva kept dripping down his face. It smelled so good!

Indeed, Su Xiaoxiao hadn't expected that she would blow it up so successfully.

The two children ended up grabbing the bowls and starting to fight over them.

Su Xiaoxiao wanted to give them the other chicken leg as well, but the strange thing was that this wild pheasant only had two legs.

She wanted to leave her other leg to Sanlang.

"They also have popcorn chicken, made with fried chicken breast, it's just as delicious."

The two little ones came over and ate popcorn chicken again, and it was indeed quite a good experience.

After Su Xiaoxiao entered the house, she handed the fried chicken leg in her hand to Sanlang.

"Try this fried chicken leg."

Sanlang looked surprised. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao and then at the fried chicken leg in front of him.

"It's delicious, why aren't you eating?"

"I've never seen this fried chicken leg you're talking about before. That's why I don't dare to eat it!"

"What are you afraid of? Try it and you'll know how it tastes!"

Su Xiaoxiao found Sanlang's appearance quite amusing.

"What are you afraid of? You'll never forget it after just one bite."

With no other option, Saburo brought the chicken leg to his mouth and took a small bite.

"Yeah, delicious!"

It was a completely new experience that Sanlang found irresistible.

However, Su Xiaoxiao also knew that his body was very weak at the moment and it was not suitable for him to eat such fried food. He could just have a taste for novelty.

Saburo immediately copied Su Xiaoxiao and gave her a thumbs up.

Su Xiaoxiao remembered, "When I saved you, you were wearing a jade thumb ring and a jade pendant close to your body. I've kept those for you." After saying that, Su Xiaoxiao went to get them for Sanlang to see.

Su Xiaoxiao kept the small cloth bag at the very bottom of her closet, afraid that it would be discovered.

The small cloth bag contained a jade thumb ring, a piece of precious jade, and a short dagger with a ruby ​​inlaid at the tip.

Saburo stared blankly at the objects, as if asking, "Are these all mine? Why don't I remember them?"

Su Xiaoxiao was so angry she almost laughed when she saw it.

"I knew I shouldn't have told you. It seems you don't remember."

Sanlang scratched his head a little embarrassedly. "Miss Su, your family is in such dire straits. I heard from Da Bao that your family often ran out of food before, and there was no food at all. I'm afraid your two children will suffer from malnutrition and starvation. Since you say this jade pendant is mine, I'll give it to you. You can sell it and get money for food, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao quickly waved her hand and said, "That won't do. The jade pendant is a keepsake you wear close to your body. If you remember something in the future and don't have anything to prove your identity, you'll regret it!"

Sanlang quickly shook his head, "It's alright, I don't regret it. You can take it and exchange it for money without worry, just listen to me!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao was surprised to hear the word "obedient." She glanced at Sanlang, who also felt that his earlier words seemed somewhat inappropriate.

Honestly, their relationship hasn't progressed to the point where they should be saying those two words.

Sanlang had no choice but to clear his throat and say, "Well, it's really no problem. You've bought me medicine and some supplements, and all of that costs money. I'll feel uneasy if you don't accept it."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the jade pendant. It was of very good quality, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it, and a character engraved on the back.

Pei

This surname was unheard of in their Hundred Flowers Village. Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback. "Is Pei your surname?"

Saburo looked completely bewildered. He shook his head and lowered his head sadly.

"I really don't remember..."

Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to force him to think too much, afraid that his body wouldn't be able to handle it. "Then don't think about it. Anyway, I can't touch this jade pendant. Now that you're awake, you can keep all of these things yourself!"

Saburo took the items and looked at them thoughtfully, his thoughts unreadable.

He raised his head again, his starry eyes sparkling. "Miss Su, I'll be leaving once my injuries have healed!"

Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback. "Where are you going?"

He shook his head. "Actually, I know that, but I can't stay in this village any longer. It will only cause you more unnecessary trouble."

Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand at him, "Do you think they'll stop talking about me behind my back just because you left? These people just want to talk about me. Even without this incident, they would find other topics to say bad things about me. I'm used to it!"

Looking at Su Xiaoxiao's nonchalant attitude, Sanlang felt a little sorry for her, but also a little amused. Was this woman really that generous, or was she just putting on an act for him?

Sanlang suddenly looked up and smiled brightly at Su Xiaoxiao.

"Thank you for not only saving me, but also for taking me in!"

Su Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. Did this kid not know how good-looking he was? He was just flirting with other people like that.

She quickly looked away, avoiding his gaze. She felt her face starting to burn. Just then, Da Bao woke up and seemed to overhear their conversation.

He crawled over sleepily, grabbed Sanlang's hand, and said, "Sanlang, don't go."

These past few days, Da Bao and Xiao Bao seem to have found new friends and are having a lot of fun playing with San Lang.

Saburo's health is gradually recovering, and he can walk normally now. He teaches his two children to read and write, and tells them many stories. Yesterday, on a whim, he even made bamboo dragonflies for the two children.

The two children hadn't laughed so happily in a long time. Su Xiaoxiao even felt that they seemed to really regard Sanlang as their father, perhaps trying to find that missing bit of fatherly love in Sanlang.
