Downstairs at the guesthouse.

Yu Lezheng lifted the pot lid.

White steam rose into the air, carrying an intensely rich aroma that instantly enveloped an area of ​​hundreds of meters.

The beef brisket in the pot has been stewed until tender and has absorbed the tomato broth, giving it a reddish-brown and glossy appearance.

The potatoes had already softened and dissolved, making the broth thicker and more viscous, almost dripping from the spoon.

Yu Le sprinkled in a handful of bright green chopped scallions.

Red meat, yellow potatoes, and green scallions.

This pot of food is a double assault on both the eyes and the nose.

"It smells so good!!!"

A scream rang out.

Shu Chang rushed over like a cannonball, stopping abruptly by the pot. Her big eyes were fixed on the meat in the pot, her eyeballs almost popping out.

"Uncle! What is this? It smells so good!"

Yu Le was startled by this sudden enthusiasm and almost dropped the spoon in her hand.

He fixed his eyes.

Oh, it's this girl! She's really fierce!

"Tomato and potato stew with beef brisket," Yu Le replied calmly, "It's to help Xixi recover."

"To replenish your body?" Shu Chang swallowed hard, then grabbed Yu Le's sleeve and started shaking it without any regard for her image. "Uncle, I'm weak too, I need to replenish my body! I feel like I'm about to faint from low blood sugar!"

This girl, she's willing to lose all sense of shame just to get a bite to eat.

Liu Qianqian arrived at this time as well.

She stopped, panting, and when she saw Shu Chang clinging to Yu Le's sleeve and acting coquettishly, her beautiful phoenix eyes widened instantly.

A strange sense of crisis welled up in my heart.

That'smine!

That's my enjoyment! That's my beef brisket!

"Shuchang! Let go!"

Liu Qianqian rushed over, slapped Shu Chang's hand away, and stood in front of Yu Le like a little tiger protecting its food.

"This was made by my...my uncle! It's for me to eat!"

Shu Chang looked at her with a pitiful expression: "Qianqian, good sisters should share happiness! Look how big this pot is, you can't finish it all by yourself! Can you share a bite with me? Just one bite!"

"No way!" Liu Qianqian insisted, "Didn't you just say the crew's boxed lunches were pretty good? Go eat some!"

"I was wrong! I just had a loss of taste!" Shu Chang clasped her hands together and blinked frantically at Yu Le. "Uncle, handsome uncle, good uncle, please have pity on this child!"

Yu Le's lips twitched as he watched the two girls almost fight over a piece of meat.

"Alright, stop arguing."

He took a stack of disposable bowls and chopsticks that had been prepared in advance from the side.

"There's enough for everyone. This pot is so big, you couldn't possibly finish it even if you ate your fill."

He first served Liu Qianqian a large bowl, carefully selecting several pieces of beef brisket with tendons, and then poured a large spoonful of thick broth over them.

"Be careful, it's hot."

Liu Qianqian held the bowl, took a big, satisfied breath of the aroma, and her earlier possessiveness of the food instantly turned into smugness.

Hmph, they still treat me the best.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Le served Shu Chang another bowl.

"Thank you, Uncle! Long live Uncle!"

Shu Chang cheered and eagerly picked up a piece of beef brisket and stuffed it into her mouth.

next second.

Her eyes widened suddenly, and she froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Soft and mushy.

It's flavorful.

It has a pleasant sweet and sour taste.

The beef fibers melt on the tongue with a gentle touch, and the rich meat juices, mixed with the sweet and sour taste of tomatoes, wreak havoc in the mouth.

too delicious!

This was better than anything she had ever eaten at a five-star hotel!

"Waaah..." Shu Chang, her mouth stuffed with meat, mumbled an indistinct sigh, "Uncle, do you need a daughter? The kind who can eat a lot and is really good at being spoiled! I don't want to act anymore, I want to go home with you!"

Liu Qianqian had just taken a bite of potato and was feeling very happy when she heard this and almost choked.

"Shu Chang! Have you no shame! You'd even claim to be someone else's father just because you have a stutter!"

"What's the point of having a face! Can you eat a face?!" Shu Chang retorted confidently. "As long as I can eat this every day, I'd call anyone, not just Dad, but even Grandpa!"

Just then, a series of chaotic footsteps approached.

Li Dawei, along with Cheng Kun and a large group of crew members, arrived in a grand procession.

Seeing the pack of hungry wolves' green eyes, Yu Le instinctively protected the pot.

"What? Are you robbing me?"

Li Dawei rubbed his hands together, his face plastered with a fawning smile.

"Um... Mr. Yu, are you cooking?"

"You know the answer already, so you ask."

"It smells so good! Is this stewed beef brisket?" Li Dawei leaned closer, trying to dangle a piece of meat from the pot with his eyes. "Um... this pot looks pretty big, and we haven't eaten yet, so maybe..."

"What do you mean?" Yu Le looked at him warily. "This is for our Qianqian to improve her health. It's not for sale to outsiders."

Before Li Dawei could speak, Cheng Kun couldn't hold back any longer.

This young nobleman from the Republic of China era was now squatting next to Shu Chang without any regard for his image, staring at the meat in Shu Chang's bowl, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"Brother Yu," Cheng Kun changed his form of address, his voice so sincere it brought tears to one's eyes, "I'll pay. One hundred yuan a bowl, is that alright?"

One hundred dollars?

One hundred yuan in 2002 was a huge sum of money.

The surrounding staff gasped in shock.

Yu Le raised an eyebrow.

"Talking about money can really hurt feelings."

Just when everyone thought he was going to refuse, Yu Le slowly pointed to the empty bowl next to him.

"Limited edition, no more available."

"Serve yourself. One hundred yuan a bowl, no credit."

Ten minutes later.

In a corner downstairs at the guesthouse, a strange yet harmonious scene unfolded.

A group of glamorous celebrities dressed in period costumes from the Republican era are squatting on the ground, each holding a disposable plastic bowl, and frantically eating without even looking up.

"Slurp—"

"It smells so good!"

"These potatoes are amazing! They taste even better than meat!"

"Brother Yu! Another bowl, please! I'll pay!"

Yu Le sat on a small stool, clutching a thick wad of banknotes in his hand, and shook his head helplessly as he looked at this group of unrefined "socialites".

"These days, even salted fish can't just lie down; they're forced to keep operating."

Holding the empty bowl, Liu Qianqian looked at the beef brisket in the pot that was quickly going down, and then at Yu Le who was happily counting his money. Suddenly, she felt a little sour.

It was clearly made especially for me...

How did it become a communal meal?

and……

She looked at Shu Chang, who was clinging to Yu Le's leg and insisting on becoming his godfather.

The sense of crisis has intensified.

It seems like this family is about to fall apart!

No! Sovereignty must be defended!

Liu Qianqian shoved the bowl in front of Yu Le and shouted angrily:

"Yu Le! I want more! Give me the last big one!"

Yu Le put the last piece of beef brisket into her bowl and casually brushed her nose.

"Eat, eat, all you do is eat. If you get fat and can't keep up with the acting, see how Director Li deals with you."

Li Dawei was licking the soup clean from the bottom of his bowl when he heard this. He looked up and grinned foolishly with satisfaction.

"It's alright! Being a little chubby is good! It makes you look prosperous! Bai Xiuzhu is a rich young lady, so being a little chubby fits her character perfectly!"

Yu Le: "..."

have to.

This production crew is hopeless.
