CHAPTER 103: CHAPTER 103: YOUR SISTER IS GETTING MARRIED

At dinner time, the snails finally were placed on the dining table.

Although Jiang Youzhi sometimes dined at restaurants with classmates while outside, he had never seen snails eaten with shells.

Liu Lang, feeling sorry for his brother, saw him take a glance and hurriedly picked up a snail to feed Jiang Youzhi.

Yun Jiao came over with the egg custard and quickly stopped him, "Don’t give it to your brother, it has chili and hot spices!"

The snail was already at Jiang Youzhi’s mouth, and his mouth was slightly open. Hearing he couldn’t eat it, he looked at Yun Jiao with grievance.

Yun Jiao placed the egg custard in front of him, "Eat this, specially steamed for you."

Jiang Youzhi, hearing the word "specially," felt somewhat happy for unknown reasons, and suddenly the snail didn’t seem so enticing.

Liu Lang smiled at his brother, twisted his chopsticks, and the snail was at his own mouth.

He gently sucked, the broth and meat of the snail together went into his mouth, the salty and spicy flavors instantly filled his palate.

Liu Lang, while eating, didn’t forget to shout, "Delicious, so delicious!"

Yun Jiao laughed and said, "You’d better not eat the intestines inside, they’re very dirty. Just suck halfway and bite off."

"Otherwise, you can use a toothpick to eat."

She demonstrated the toothpick eating method, and San Ya quickly learned, picking and eating deliberately.

Mrs. Chen saw several children particularly enjoying the snails, only tasted one, and didn’t stretch her chopsticks again. She basically didn’t eat the meat dishes at home, always thinking, if she eats a bite more, the children eat a bite less.

Yun Jiao had told her a few times, but she remained the same, saying she didn’t like meat, Yun Jiao couldn’t help it.

Mrs. Chen picked up a chopstick of shredded potatoes, casually said, "In a few days, the Zhao Family next door will have a wedding."

Yun Jiao absent-mindedly responded with a "Hmm," continuing her meal.

Mrs. Chen saw Yun Jiao didn’t get her meaning, had to speak out, "Our family needs to give a gift, Yun Jiao, what do you think is appropriate to give?"

The soon-to-be bride, Gu Mei, was Yun Jiao’s elder sister, if the gift was too small, it wouldn’t look good on everyone.

Yun Jiao had no concept of gift-giving, "Mom, just do as you see fit, I don’t understand these things."

Mrs. Chen had to remind her, "That’s your elder sister."

"If I give too little, it would disgrace you."

She wanted to give a lot, since she still had some silver on hand, but seeing Yun Jiao’s seemingly strained relationship with her elder sister, she worried if she gave too much, Yun Jiao wouldn’t appreciate it and wouldn’t be happy.

Yun Jiao nonchalantly said, "You don’t need to consider my relationship with her, just do like you usually interact with the Zhao Family."

Mrs. Chen explained, "Now we’re a separate family, need to give gifts separately, it’s not like before."

"Forget it, you’re still young, don’t understand these things, I’ll handle it."

She ate two bites, "By the way, do you want to take some time to go home these days to add to your elder sister’s dowry?"

Yun Jiao glanced at Gu Chuan, "I won’t go, when I got married, she didn’t add anything for me."

Mrs. Chen had an idea, it seems, the sisterly relationship is really not very good.

A pot of snails was soon eaten up, Liu Lang still looking for more, scooping the remaining broth with snail shells.

Mrs. Chen saw he could only scoop a little bit at a time, specially handed him a spoon to drink the soup, but Liu Lang shook his head, "I just want to drink with snail shells, this way it’s original flavor."

Yun Jiao found it amusing watching Liu Lang, it’s purely psychological, isn’t it?
