Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 575: Did You Go See Your Mistress?

Zhao Gushen could only smile helplessly, "Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you."

Ye Fei then withdrew her head and patted her flushed face.

She then went to take out the rice.

Ye Fei first washed the rice and put it in the pot to steam.

Then she took out the pork tenderloin to thaw.

While waiting for it to thaw, she sliced the cabbage into thin shreds and soaked them in salted water.

This was to remove pesticide residues from the cabbage.

Even if it’s organic vegetables, Ye Fei was still not very reassured.

After soaking, she filtered the water out, put the cabbage in a water-draining basket, and covered it with a layer of kitchen paper.

This way it absorbs the remaining moisture and prevents the cabbage itself from drying out.

After covering it up, she directly placed the basket of cabbage into the refrigerator. This way, the cabbage would be crisper than eating it directly.

She also took out beef bones, cleaned the blood out, put them in a pot with cold water, and added carrot chunks, red dates, and ginger to stew.

While stewing the soup, she used a small pot to cook curry sauce beside.

She also used oyster sauce to stir-fry some snow peas.

After that, she took out two slices of toast and ground them into breadcrumbs with the food processor.

Then, she saw where the thawed pork tenderloin had fascia and made small cuts with the tip of the knife. This way, when frying, the pork wouldn’t deform and would remain flat.

After sprinkling salt and black pepper, she coated it with flour, egg wash, and breadcrumbs in sequence.

After tightly wrapping the meat, she fried it in the pan until it was golden brown, then took out the pork chop, cut it into strips, and placed it on a plate.

She also took out the shredded cabbage from the refrigerator and placed it next to the pork chops.

She put the curry sauce in a small serving bowl, convenient for dipping the pork chop.

By this time, the soup was almost done stewing.

Ye Fei served the soup.

When she opened the door, Zhao Gushen knew Ye Fei had finished lunch and quickly went to help her serve the dishes out.

Once the food was all set on the table, Ye Fei said, "Eat quickly while it’s hot."

"Wait a moment." Zhao Gushen didn’t eat right away but took out his phone first.

Ye Fei saw him taking pictures with his phone.

"Are you going to post it on your moments?" Ye Fei asked in surprise.

The lunch menu today wasn’t that abundant.

Ye Fei thought it was just the two of them eating, and Zhao Gushen had to go to the company in the afternoon, so lunchtime was limited.

That’s why Ye Fei made a simple and quick lunch.

"I’m not posting it on moments; I’ve posted enough there, need to save some freshness." Zhao Gushen spoke while sending out the picture.

"Then who are you sending it to?" Ye Fei asked.

"To Xiao Mo," Zhao Gushen said.

Ye Fei: "..."

What was the point of sending it to Xiao Mo?

"He’s at kindergarten and can only eat kindergarten kitchen-made lunch. How can it compare to yours?" Zhao Gushen said, "The kid’s really pitiful. Even if he can’t eat it, at least let him look at it."

Ye Fei: "..."

Are you sure you’re not purposely teasing him?

"Alright, let’s eat." Zhao Gushen said contentedly.

Zhao Gushen picked up a piece of pork chop, the first piece not dipped in curry sauce.

He just wanted to taste the original flavor.

As he bit into it, the coating on the pork chop made a crisp "crunch" sound.

The crispy breadcrumbs mixed with the crunchy coating blended with the pork chop as soon as you took a bite.

Remarkably, the pork chop still had meat juices flowering in the mouth, permeating inside and outside the coating.

With a faint pepper taste.

"Incredible, it’s not dry at all, it has juices flowing out when you bite," Zhao Gushen said.

"Because I didn’t marinate the pork chop, just sprinkled salt and pepper. But the salt will force the juices out of the pork chop. So before the salt could extract the juices, I coated the pork chop to lock in the moisture,"

"And immediately fried it. This way, the oil and coating can lock in the meat juices," Ye Fei explained.

With the second piece, Zhao Gushen dipped it with curry sauce.

The spiciness of the curry sauce counterbalanced the greasiness of the pork chop. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

And combined with the shredded cabbage, the refreshing crisp texture mixed with the chewy, juicy meat created another flavor.

After taking a sip of beef bone soup, Zhao Gushen felt his afternoon fulfilled.

Just as they were eating, Zhao Gushen’s phone rang with a WeChat notification sound.

When Zhao Gushen opened it, sure enough, it was a voice message from Xiao Mo.

Zhao Gushen tapped it, and the little guy’s frantic voice came through the phone, "Daddy, who did you sneak over to? Did you go find Xiao San?"

Zhao Gushen: "..."

Ye Fei: "..."

Zhao Gushen was furious!

He intended to boast to the little guy.

Who knew the kid’s imagination ran so wild!

Interrupting his boast!

Ye Fei saw Zhao Gushen so angry his forehead darkened, and couldn’t help but laugh.

Eight out of ten times, Zhao Gushen’s downfall was due to Xiao Mo.

The other two out of ten, one was from the old lady, and the other was from Jing Si.

Anyway, it was Xiao Mo’s nap time too.

Zhao Gushen simply made a video call to Xiao Mo.

In no time, Xiao Mo answered on the other end.

"Daddy!" The little one instantly called out.

Zhao Gushen said angrily, "Don’t you know what our dining table looks like?"

"What does it look like again? I forgot." The little one feigned ignorance.

Zhao Gushen snorted coldly, directly turning the camera to include Ye Fei in the frame.

"I’m with Xiao Fei, you know, and we’re not at someone else’s house, we’re both at home," Zhao Gushen said, "Forget about Xiao San, nonsense!"

Xiao Mo: "..."

"Wait, how do you know words like Xiao San!" Zhao Gushen keenly grasped the key point.

Xiao Mo: "..."

"That’s all in the TV dramas." Xiao Mo said, "You wore Pin Ru’s clothes, that one."

Zhao Gushen: "..."

This kid is watching such soap opera-like dramas?

"You usually only watch Pokemon, right?" Zhao Gushen was surprised. Since when did he start watching such melodramatic dramas?

"Daddy!" Xiao Mo said helplessly, "Pokemon only comes out with a short episode each week; the rest of the time I can watch other things."

"And you choose to watch that? Can you even understand?" Zhao Gushen asked in surprise.

"I understand." Xiao Mo nodded, "I’m really smart!"

"..." Zhao Gushen decided to search for good cartoons for Xiao Mo later.

Let him watch less of that revenge soap opera stuff.

Four years old and already watching that, a bit premature!

Only then did Zhao Gushen remember that Xiao Mo’s interruption had made him forget his initial intention.

"I just wanted to show you what Xiao Fei and I were eating for lunch," Zhao Gushen recalled his intention.

Xiao Mo: "..."

"I can’t even eat it; why do you show me?" Xiao Mo puffed out his cheeks angrily, no longer pretending.

"Exactly because you can’t eat it, showing it to you, so you can at least crave it," Zhao Gushen felt like he was a considerate good dad.
