173 Chapter 173: Let them eat
Mrs. Zhao looked at Ye Li expectantly while rolling the balls, "Princess, how do you think my balls are made?"

Ye Li tested the temperature of the oil with chopsticks, turned his head to look, and saw that the plate next to him was already filled with round meatballs, so he could only bite the bullet and reply, "It's pretty good."

Fortunately, apart from the two of them, there was another normal one, Ms. Zhao, as usual, sitting at the door of the kitchen, frowning, looking at the distance with her chin in her hands, wondering what she was thinking, but she didn't come forward to disturb Ye Li.

Seeing how diligent they were, Ye Li couldn't push them away, so he could only let them work together like this.

After frying the meatballs, Ye Li fried some more banana leaves to finish the oil.

According to the past habit, after Ye Li fried these things, he would always serve a bowl for the two children first. Unexpectedly, when serving them, Miss Zhao also came over and looked at him expectantly.

Ye Li glanced at her helplessly, and filled a bowl for her, and she left with the bowl contentedly.

Ye Li is ready to kill chickens after finishing all these. It is not a complete Spring Festival for Ye Li if he does not eat chickens during the Chinese New Year.

Unexpectedly, when she turned her head, she saw Mrs. Zhao looking at her with a hesitant expression on her face.

Ye Li lost his patience after being teased by them like this, and asked directly: "Madam Zhao, just speak up if you have something to say."

Mrs. Zhao smiled embarrassedly and asked tentatively: "Princess, can we celebrate the New Year with you today?"

Ye Li raised his brows and was a little puzzled, why should they spend the New Year with her when they were all out living.

Mrs. Zhao saw that Ye Li's eyes were puzzled, so she explained with a wry smile: "We originally wanted to celebrate the New Year by ourselves, but the family we live in is really overbearing. If you want to eat, find a way to go!"

"And look at the three of us, we don't look like people who can cook, so I thought of coming to see you."

While Mrs. Zhao was talking, Ye Li kept staring at her, seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, so he replied, "Okay! The Chinese New Year is just to have fun, so let's go together!"

Mrs. Zhao immediately put on a smile when she heard that, and happily replied: "Then I will help you."

When Ye Li thought that he was going to kill a chicken, he quickly refused: "Forget it, you guys help me wash these dishes!"

Fortunately, she is a person with a sense of ritual, and she prepares a lot of things for the New Year. Even if there are three more of them, this dish is enough.

The rest of the time is for Chef Ye Li, Mrs. Zhao and Xiao Cui to help, the two of them are also busy going around.

An hour later, the meal was finally ready, and a whole table was set up.

A well-mannered person like Mrs. Zhao couldn't help swallowing when she saw such a large table of dishes.

Ye Li sat down from the main seat, and said to Hu Zi beside him, "Go and get the wine that Uncle Lin has hidden!"

In the past, when Ye Li followed her grandfather in the countryside, he would drink some during the New Years and holidays. Later, she gradually developed this habit.

As soon as Huzi heard this, he immediately got up from his chair and ran to get the wine.

Ye Li looked at Mrs. Zhao and asked, "Can I have a drink?"

Women like them often attend various banquets, and drinking is a trivial matter for them.

After a while, Huzi brought the wine, and without Ye Li's hands, Xiaocui behind Mrs. Zhao took the wine bottle and filled it up for them.

Ye Li looked at Xiao Cui who was standing behind Mrs. Zhao, thought for a while and said: "Xiao Cui, today is Chinese New Year, so don't wait around, sit down and eat together!"

After hearing Ye Li's words, Xiaocui paused with the hand holding the wine bottle, and then her eyes were full of joy, as if she didn't expect Ye Li to say such a thing.

But she dared to sit casually and could only look at Mrs. Zhao.

Although Mrs. Zhao is very jealous of this, Ye Li has already spoken, so she followed Ye Li and said: "Since the princess has spoken, then you can sit down!"

After hearing Mrs. Zhao's words, Xiao Cui happily sat down.

After eating clear water noodles for more than half a month, she couldn't take it anymore.

Huzi and Xiaomu looked at each other, and the eyes of the two children were full of helplessness.

Although the three of Mrs. Zhao and the others were all very hungry, they still ate gracefully when it started.

Ye Li, who was on the side, watched them eating, and instantly felt that they might not be that hungry.

After drinking a few glasses of wine with Mrs. Zhao, Ye Li couldn't stand it anymore.

Mrs. Zhao looked at Ye Li's flushed face, and couldn't help but joked: "My concubine is a bit short of alcohol!"

Ye Li waved his hand, and said with blurred eyes: "It's not as good as Mrs. Zhao, I still have to practice."

Ms. Zhao drank more than Ye Li, and she couldn't help but sneer at Ye Li, "I really need to practice."

"This drink is too bad."

Mrs. Zhao's face darkened, she turned her head and reprimanded: "Okay, no one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak!"

Ms. Zhao was reprimanded by Mrs. Zhao in public, her face froze for a moment and she was unhappy.

Ye Li also didn't want to look at Miss Zhao's face, so he simply took advantage of his drunkenness and ordered to chase away the guests: "This meal is over, and the year is over, so I won't keep you guys."

Mrs. Zhao saw that Ye Li was drunk, and she didn't want to stay to clean up, so she simply said: "Okay, then we will go back first, and if you have something, you can let the tiger call us."

When he left, in order to show his relationship, he also asked Hu Zi to take good care of Ye Li over and over again.

Huzi nodded earnestly, and he was instantly relieved when he sent them away and closed the door.

When Ye Li heard the sound of closing the door, he rested his head on his hands and regained some clarity in his eyes.

Seeing Huzi come in, he asked casually, "Are they gone?"

Huzi: "Let's go."

Ye Li got up and said: "Then I'll go to sleep, you two are playing in the yard, you are not allowed to go out." After speaking, he went back to sleep.

This sleep went straight into the night, and when she opened her eyes, it was already dark outside.

Hearing the silence outside, Ye Li couldn't help shouting: "Huzi! Xiaomu!"

After a while, the two children ran in, and Ye Li rubbed his hangover head and asked, "It's so late, why didn't you call me?"

Huzi: "We saw that you were sleeping too soundly, so we didn't shout."

Ye Li: "What time is it?"

Huzi: "You time."

Ye Li thought for a while and decided it wasn't too late, so he got ready to make dumplings.

"Are you hungry?"

Huzi: "Not hungry, we just had some food."

Ye Li's fried meatballs and banana leaves can be eaten without heating.

Ye Li felt relieved when he heard that they had eaten.

Put on your shoes, go to the kitchen and adjust the stuffing, and then go to the main room to make dumplings.
