Chapter 335: 340 A Peach Tree Comes Out of The Wall _1

Ugh, it’s not that she’s tight-lipped, or that she’s lazy, or that she doesn’t love the work of cooking in her home!

Qin Muchuan, in his apron, stood in front of the cabinet, the stone counter piled high with various ingredients. "I think the key to the delicious Spicy Mix Noodles you had me try is this sesame sauce!"

"I know, I used it too!"

"But when you used it, it was a little off. It was too thick. You can’t use too much or too little of it. Too much can make it seem overpowering, just a bit is okay!" Qin Muchuan poured his water-mixed sesame sauce into a dish. "And I feel like you’ve actually under-seasoned here. Add a bit more salt, it should taste better!"

"Really? I feel like I’ve added quite a lot of salt!"

Qin Muchuan stirred the dish and put a piece in her mouth.

Lin Xiangwan just dumbly opened her mouth, dumbly chewed, then dumbly gawked in astonishment. "It’s really, really better than before!"

Qin Muchuan felt quite satisfied and picked up a piece of vegetable and took a bite. "It’s still not bad, but it seems like we added too much vinegar. Too much vinegar can be off-putting!"

Lin Xiangwan also took another bite. "Hmm, it’s indeed a bit sour, it’ll hurt if you eat too much!"

"Then let’s redo it!" Qin Muchuan reached for the vegetables - all kinds of them.

Lin Xiangwan stopped him. "No need, you must be tired after working all day!"

"It’s okay, I’m quite interested in figuring out how they get their flavor!" Qin Muchuan said enthusiastically.

"Um, how about this, I’ll prepare the vegetables, and you season them!"

"That works!" Qin Muchuan stepped aside.

Lin Xiangwan began to pick, wash, and cut the vegetables. Although not as expert as a professional chef, she was still quite adept.

"Hehe..." Qin Muchuan watched her. "Why didn’t I meet you sooner?"

She looked back at him, puzzled. "Huh?"

"If I had met you earlier, would I have been able to marry you sooner?" Qin Muchuan wondered to himself.

"Who knows!" Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but reminisce as well.

"Did I say anything to you that night?" Qin Muchuan suddenly asked.

Lin Xiangwan was confused. "What?"

"The first night six years ago..." he specified the time.

Lin Xiangwan strained to remember. "That night was pitch black! I didn’t see anything! I thought you were a really ugly man, like a pig-like man. In my despair, I resigned myself to getting taken by a pig!"

"You little brat, did you really deserve a slap earlier?" Qin Muchuan slapped her bottom. She dared call him a pig!

Lin Xiangwan rubbed her sore bottom, with a wronged look on her face. "But it’s not my fault, the lights were all turned off by grandma. I couldn’t see anything!"

She had never asked about his family before because he hadn’t introduced her to them, and she felt it was rude for her to ask.

She had always wanted to know about his grandmother. "How’s grandma doing now? Is she healthy?"

"Uh huh!" Qin Muchuan nodded. "Her health is much better now than before."

Yesterday he went back to see his grandmother. Although she hasn’t fully recovered her memory from back then, she can now remember the things that happen each day!

That’s a really good sign!

"Oh, I kind of miss her!" Lin Xiangwan said nonchalantly, her back turned to him.

"I’ll take you to meet grandma and grandpa at the Ancestral Residence after our honeymoon!" Qin Muchuan said.

"Oh..." Lin Xiangwan turned her head to look at him. "Have you been contemplating this for a long time? Deciding whether I’m good enough to meet them?"

Even though she said it sweetly, Qin Muchuan still picked up the undertone in her words. "Are you perhaps resentful that I didn’t take you back home sooner?"

Lin Xiangwan hurriedly shook her head. "No, no, no, I really didn’t mean that!"

Was her disappointment that apparent? She thought she had concealed it quite well!

’Gurgling...’

The vegetables being boiled in the hot water were ready, Qin Muchuan turned off the gas and scooped out the cooked vegetables from the pot!

Lin Xiangwan stepped aside. The rest of the job was now his responsibility!

As Qin Muchuan added the seasoning to the dish, he explained, "Grandma wasn’t well before. It’s only recently that she started getting better. Then grandpa took grandma to Sanya for recuperation! They just came back a few days ago!"

"Isn’t it too hot there this time of year?" Lin Xiangwan got her answer and felt a sense of relief from the grievance she held in her heart.

"She has rheumatism, it’s okay if it’s a bit hot. Also, there are dedicated medical staff, and the rooms are air-conditioned, it’s not a big deal!"

Lin Xiangwan said sincerely, "I’m glad grandma is doing well. She was really good to me back then, I just don’t understand why she didn’t want children, and yet stole one away!"

" I’ll tell you about these things later!"

The Spicy Hot Pot was ready!

This time, Lin Xiangwan took a bite, her eyes wide. "It’s delicious, it’s delicious, it’s really delicious!"

Qin Muchuan took a bite, agreeing that it was quite good.

"After we come back from our honeymoon, I’m going to open a restaurant!" Lin Xiangwan declared excitedly.

"Okay!" Qin Muchuan showed his full support!

All of a sudden, Qin Muchuan felt unwell and his face turned a bit pale.

"What’s wrong?" Lin Xiangwan asked.

"I think I ate a bit too much, I don’t feel so good!" Qin Muchuan rubbed his stomach.

As he had been tasting the dishes earlier, he had indeed eaten quite a bit. "Wait, I’ll get you some indigestion tablets!"

"Okay..."

Lin Xiangwan scrambled to find the medicine, then handed him the medicine and some water.

Qin Muchuan took the medicine but still felt uncomfortable.

"The medicine can’t work that fast, how about we go for a stroll outside!" Lin Xiangwan suggested.

"Okay!"

The ’outside’ she referred to was their yard.

One side of their house was lined with fruit trees that were in bloom. The trees were speckled with beautiful pink blossoms. "What kind of fruit tree is this?"

"A peach tree!"

"Oh?" Lin Xiangwan was surprised. "A peach tree? So, we’ll be able to eat peaches sometime soon?"

Qin Muchuan nodded. "That’s right, but we’ll have to wait a little longer!"

"I can’t wait to eat it!"

"Hehe!" Qin Muchuan pinched her cheek. "I wonder, is there anything you don’t like to eat?"

"Yes!" She nodded earnestly. "I definitely won’t eat anything that I’m not supposed to!"

"Heh..." Qin Muchuan chuckled again.

Lin Xiangwan looked up at the tall tree. "Qin Muchuan, look, look, the branches of this tree have grown over the wall! It seems that not only does the apricot tree climb over the wall, so does the peach tree!"
