The growth system comes at the age of 30

Chapter 54: Festivals are all about eating and drinking!
6 o'clock in the morning,
Chen Jingle was still awakened by the system alarm.

"System, I need to ask for half a day off. Please help me coordinate this morning's schedule or adjust it to the evening. I need to go out and visit relatives."

[Okay, we have rescheduled the schedule for Chen Jingle. Today is a holiday, there are a lot of cars on the road, please be careful when going out. ]

"understood."

In this way, you can arrange your morning time freely.

There is a lot to do today.

In addition to preparing gifts for his two uncles, two aunts, and his second uncle, Chen Jingle also had to prepare gifts for his two aunts, who would most likely be returning to their mother's home today.

"Oh, and Chen Xiuyun!" She will definitely come back.

So a total of eight gifts need to be prepared.

In addition to the regular mooncakes, pork, fruits and other items, he plans to prepare a few more items according to his own preferences.

"Let's go to the supermarket and buy some meat first!"

There is no doubt that there will be a lot of people buying meat today, and you won’t be able to buy good meat if you go a little later.

So the first thing Chen Jingle did after getting up was to drive to the supermarket.

Today is destined to be a big shopping day.

In addition to the usual gifts, Chen Jingle also plans to make some braised pork buns and beef stew with potatoes.

Both of these items are substantial and presentable, not shabby.

And it won’t be too time-consuming.

In fact, for everyone, this kind of festival is just an excuse to sit together and eat and drink.

Eating and drinking well is the greatest happiness.

When it comes to eating and drinking, this is Chen Jingle’s strong point!
The key is to know how to show off your skills in front of relatives without attracting too much attention.

If the show is too successful, he will be the chief chef for family gatherings in the future, which is a bit of a rush.

Chen Jingle likes to cook, but that doesn't mean he likes to cook for others, especially for large gatherings with friends and family, which is very tiring. He can help out occasionally, but he is always called upon to do so, which is a bit puzzling.

Just as cooking is fine as a hobby, if it becomes a career, you will gradually become bored.

……

Coming back from the supermarket,
After putting his things away, Chen Jingle prepared to go out for exercise.

No matter how busy you are, two or three hours is enough, so don't miss out on exercise.

At the Normal College playground, the girl who had been expecting him to continue running today sat in the stands and waited for almost half an hour, but didn't see him, and was very disappointed.

"It looks like he won't come today."

Just as she was about to leave, Chen Jingle appeared.

I was pleasantly surprised.

I don't know how to describe this feeling, maybe it's like "after a dark tunnel there comes a new world".

Due to time constraints, Chen Jingle only ran three kilometers today.

He was somewhat puzzled to see the girl from yesterday appear in the stands again, but when he saw her waving and greeting him, he subconsciously nodded and gestured in a friendly manner.

I'm in a good mood today.

[Baby is awesome! Successfully completed the exercise task, rewarded with 0.1 kg of strength, current strength is 40.3 kg. ]

look!

It feels so good to get stronger every day!
I had a simple breakfast of two buns at the Normal College.

After returning home, Chen Jingle started working.

After kneading the dough, start preparing the meat filling and the beef to be stewed while the dough is resting.

A kitchen knife was busy as a rocket.

This time his knife skills were at their best, and he cut the vegetables so fast that even afterimages were left.

Make the meat filling first.

I feel that making steamed buns is the most troublesome. Although stewing beef with potatoes is also time-consuming, as long as you cut them and put them in the pot, the rest is just a matter of hard work.

Baozi is different. You have to knead the dough, let it rest, prepare the fillings, knead the dough again, roll out the dough, wrap the buns, and steam them...

There are indeed many steps.

Chen Jingle operated two stoves at the same time, which was a bit busy, but it was okay.

By the time the marinated meat is ready, the dough will be almost done.

The buns are ready!
……

The time came to 9:.

Chen Xiuyun's signature giggle rang out from outside the yard: "Hi, classmate Chen Jingle!"

When Chen Jingle came out of the house, he saw her waving her hands and jumping around like a monkey king playing in the water at the beach, not acting like an adult at all. Behind her followed Lin Yaoheng with a helpless expression.

Their little red Tiida was parked nearby.

"Brother Le!"

"Are you here? Welcome, welcome."

Chen Xiuyun handed over the plastic bag in her hand: "Here, this is for you! I gave you mooncakes before, so I won’t bring any this time. Just two kilograms of grapes and two kilograms of lean meat."

"thank you."

Chen Jingle took it with a smile: "Wait a moment, I'll give you your portion and put it in the car first. You can put the meat in your father's refrigerator first."

After he put Chen Xiuyun's bag away, he took out the gift that he had prepared long ago from the corner of the living room and handed it to Lin Yaoheng.

Well, it’s traditional customs, so let’s just leave it as it is.

"What smells so good?"

Chen Xiuyun's nose began to work.

Chen Jingle pointed to the kitchen and said, "I've stewed potatoes and beef. Please help serve it up for lunch later."

"what?!"

Chen Xiuyun and the other person widened their eyes, rushed into the kitchen, and were immediately stunned.

"Is it all in this pot?" Lin Yaoheng was stunned.

Chen Xiuyun opened the lid of the pot and immediately drooled: "Damn, this smells too good!!"

Lin Yaoheng couldn't resist it. The aroma of the meat was so strong that it made the glutton in his stomach start to cry out, "Brother Le, you have this trick?"

"I recently learned it from a master video online."

"awesome!"

"Looks like we'll have a treat at noon."

"Shall we serve it now?" Chen Xiuyun asked.

Chen Jingle pointed to the steamer next to him and said, "There are also some braised pork buns."

He had already packed the portion to be taken to his uncle's house and placed it separately, as well as the beef stew with potatoes.

"Ah? Did you make this yourself too?"

Chen Xiuyun was surprised: "What time did you get up in the morning? Don't tell me you got up at three or four o'clock."

"That's not possible. It's normal to wake up at 6 o'clock in the morning. As long as you are experienced, it's actually very quick." Chen Jingle shook his head.

Chen Xiuyun gave a thumbs up: "Awesome! Then come to my house now?"

Chen Jingle nodded: "Well, go ahead first. I have to go to my uncle's place later. I'll try to be back before lunch."

"Do we still have to rush?" Lin Yaoheng was surprised.

Chen Jingle spread his hands and said, "I can't help it. My parents are not at home."

"Fine!"

Chen Xiuyun winked and said, "Lin Yaoheng, go ahead! Be careful not to fall!"

After Lin Yaoheng handed the bag in his hand to Chen Xiuyun, he helped to carry the big pot of stewed beef with potatoes.

Chen Jingle waved his hand: "I'll do it."

"No, no, no, Brother Le, let me do it." Lin Yaoheng picked up two rags first.

Chen Xiuyun smiled and said, "Let him come. He comes here to help me with the work and just serve the dishes. I don't need him to cook. He just has to open his mouth and wait for food."

"Hehe." Lin Yaoheng smiled innocently.

……

"Brother Le!"

"Sister Xiu, Brother Heng."

Little Chen Qiyun got up quite early today.

But she was caught by her mother to help with the work, and was now picking vegetables. When she saw Chen Jingle and the others coming up, her eyes lit up immediately.

When the second aunt saw the three people's appearance, she asked in surprise: "Why did Yaoheng bring a pot?"

Chen Xiuyun smiled and said, "My classmate Chen Jingle's family, he said he made beef stew with potatoes, it smells delicious."

"Where are my elder and younger aunts?" Chen Jingle asked.

Second Aunt replied, "I just received word that they have set out, and they will probably arrive in half an hour."

　I wrote slowly today, so I guess the next chapter will be a little late, sorry! In addition, I made some fine-tuning to some of the issues raised in Chapter 53, and will consider optimizing the plot later.
