Mashed chili peppers with preserved eggs?
What kind of thing is that?
He Chen suddenly realized he was really quite dense. He looked at Ye Manman with some panic, not daring to ask how to make it.
This look of wanting to speak but holding back made Ye Manman even more annoyed.
"Didn't you say you're good at learning things?"
She poked his belly grumpily, finding it unyielding, then tightened her small fist and jabbed twice.
"I'll only teach you once."
He Chen held her little hand, which had hurt itself when she hit him, and gently rubbed it, feeling sorry for her.
"Don't hit me with your hand. You can use a cane or a stick, just don't hurt your hand. I'll learn, I promise I will if you teach me once."
He quickly prepared the chili peppers and preserved eggs, along with the simple seasonings Ye Manman mentioned, stealing occasional glances at the person beside him supervising nervously.
