My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts
Chapter 34 - 14: That Night

Chapter 34: Chapter 14: That Night

The scene of the farce passed, and Chen Yin temporarily "let Ke Lian go," and the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall dish was almost ready to be served.

Rob helped take down the stove where Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was simmering, then Du Xixi personally uncovered the lid. The initially subtle aroma now filled the kitchen thoroughly, even someone as composed as Ke Lian couldn’t control his drooling as it surged forth.

The soup was milky white, with a tender appearance. Du Xixi nodded in satisfaction. Although the ingredients were not sufficient, she still had her culinary skills to compensate for the shortcomings of the ingredients.

Moreover, perhaps due to the advanced interstellar technology, the fertilizers and feeds were better, so the ingredients prepared by Chen Yin were extremely fresh and pure, making the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall taste better than usual.

Du Xixi had cooked a big pot and now served a bowl each to Chen Yin and Ke Lian, while she herself just watched.

"You’re not drinking?" Ke Lian took his bowl and saw that Du Xixi hadn’t served herself, his expression darkened immediately, raising his hand to help serve a bowl for Du Xixi.

Du Xixi hurriedly waved her hand but couldn’t stop him, so it was Chen Yin, who had already drunk a few mouthfuls, who intervened to stop him: "Xixi doesn’t want to eat now."

Ke Lian paused, looked at Du Xixi, seeing her face pale, indeed with no appetite for the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, she even seemed quite abhorred, leaving him puzzled. However, he just thought she didn’t like the ingredients inside, hence gave up the idea of serving Du Xixi a bowl.

Chen Yin watched Ke Lian silently start enjoying Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and let out a cold hum. Hmph! Not aware of Xixi’s condition, Ke Lian was inadequate!

Du Xixi chuckled lightly, her smile was gentle. She was less than a month pregnant now, yet for some reason, her pregnancy reactions were very obvious, often unable to tolerate fishy smells. _{f.(r)eewe/bnov\ll.com}

Although Buddha Jumps Over the Wall seemed very delicious to Ke Lian and Chen Yin, to Du Xixi, just the smell made her feel nauseated and repulsed, but she endured it, not wanting to ruin Ke Lian and Chen Yin’s appetite.

As for whether Ke Lian cared about her condition, Du Xixi hadn’t focused on that point yet; she only knew Ke Lian was worried she’d worked hard to make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall but had nothing to eat herself, wanting to help serve her a bowl immediately.

Him being able to do that, Du Xixi was already very satisfied. As for the rest, she couldn’t ask a husband without emotional foundation to do more.

Take it slow...

Du Xixi was long used to Chen Yin’s admiration for her culinary skills, now also too lazy to listen to his praises, instead she looked at Ke Lian with sparkling eyes, her tone expectant: "So, is it tasty?"

Du Xixi’s skin was very good, not the kind that became smooth after maintenance, but with a natural rustic feel. Her skin was very fair, not the cold white that girls pursue, but a pinkish white with a rosy complexion, only now Du Xixi was a bit nauseous, so she looked fairer than usual.

Ke Lian had just put down his bowl, when Du Xixi’s little face appeared in front of him, his heart suddenly panicked for a moment. Du Xixi’s face had fine fuzz, under the light it seemed shrouded in a gentle-colored veil.

Seeing her smile at him, her lovely peach blossom eyes reflecting only himself, a sense of satisfaction arose in Ke Lian’s heart, and the corners of his mouth lifted: "It’s delicious, it’s the most delicious food I’ve ever had!"

"Oh?" Du Xixi saw Ke Lian’s eyelashes tremble slightly, strangely showing a bit of nervousness, and she smiled, teasing him, "So which was more delicious, the dishes I made for you before, or this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"

This was undoubtedly a dangerous question, akin to asking whether to save your girlfriend or your mom if they both fell into a river; Du Xixi originally thought such questions were meaningless to ask, but now she was very curious about Ke Lian’s answer.

Ke Lian was dumbfounded for a moment, as Du Xixi looked curiously and Chen Yin watched amused, large drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He stammered for a long time, suddenly recalling Mo Feng’s advice: "If you don’t know how to answer a wife’s question, just praise her merits! Compliment her so much that she beams with joy, and the answer won’t matter anymore."

Ke Lian’s eyes lit up, he had an idea. He reached out to hold Du Xixi’s hands, who looked puzzled, and activated his mode of gleeful flattery: "Xixi, your culinary skills are so superb, whether it’s the dishes before or now, to me they’re top-notch. Even if it’s just a cup of boiled water from you, it’s unbelievably tasty..."
