"Alright, then Uncle Jiang will draw with Mengmeng," Jiang Ning said.
He then quickly walked to the balcony,
and carefully moved the table and chairs back into the living room.
After all, it was windy on the balcony, and the way Mengmeng had been sick yesterday was still fresh in his mind.
He really couldn't risk even the slightest chance of Mengmeng catching a cold.
"Mengmeng, what are we drawing today?"
Jiang Ning leaned down slightly, a gentle smile on his face as he asked in a low voice.
"Uncle Jiang, Mengmeng is going to draw Mengmeng and Mommy, and Uncle Jiang."
Mengmeng raised her head, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, her little face full of expectation.
"Alright, Uncle Jiang will paint first today, and Mengmeng can watch carefully."
Jiang Ning picked up the brush and instantly immersed himself in the world of creation.
Five minutes later.
"Ding"
"Congratulations to the host, Beginner Painting Skill upgraded to Intermediate Painting Skill."
Subsequently, a large amount of painting knowledge flooded into Jiang Ning's mind.
Jiang Ning's eyes and hands underwent a change, and his aesthetic sense improved greatly.
굛 minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
A warm and cozy scene sprang to life on the paper.
In a sun-drenched park, Su Meng held Mengmeng's hand. Both of their faces were filled with happy smiles as they chased after colorful butterflies with delight.
Jiang Ning stood behind them, his posture upright, his eyes firm, silently guarding this beautiful moment.
Mengmeng stared, her eyes glued to the painting, her little mouth slightly open, her face full of amazement and adoration.
"Uncle Jiang, you draw so beautifully."
"Mengmeng, if you just observe carefully and imagine vividly, Mengmeng will definitely draw even better than Uncle Jiang in the future."
"Really?"
"Yes,"
"Then Mengmeng will draw very, very carefully."
Then, she eagerly picked up her brush.
She began to create, imitating Jiang Ning.
Her tender little hands were a bit clumsy, but every stroke was filled with her love for this home.
"Mengmeng, Uncle Jiang will make you some snacks. What would you like to eat?"
Jiang Ning's gentle voice broke the momentary silence.
"Uncle Jiang, Mengmeng wants a bear-shaped cream cake."
Mengmeng said with anticipation, her small face filled with a longing for sweetness.
"No, Mengmeng isn't completely well yet, so you can't eat cream cake."
Jiang Ning explained patiently.
"Then, then fried chicken?"
Mengmeng asked unwillingly, a hint of hope in her eyes.
"No, you can't eat anything fried, Mengmeng is still sick."
Jiang Ning gently shook his head, his tone firm yet gentle.
"Then, then a hamburger?"
Mengmeng blinked her eyes, trying to plead her case.
"No way, there are fried chicken wings in the hamburger, which aren't good for your health. Forget it, Uncle Jiang will make you some Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee."
Jiang Ning smiled helplessly.
He was secretly annoyed with himself for his oversight, knowing full well that Mengmeng was still sick.
Why did he ask her what she wanted to eat?
"Okay. But Uncle Jiang, you have to make it super pretty, okay?"
Mengmeng blinked her big, watery eyes, putting forward her small request.
"Alright, don't worry, Mengmeng, I guarantee you'll love it."
Jiang Ning smiled and nodded.
The morning sun, like a golden veil, gently poured into the kitchen, casting a warm, yellow, and cozy outline over the culinary creation about to begin.
Jiang Ning placed his phone to the side and turned on the recording function, wanting to capture this scene filled with love.
He decided to make a bowl of Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee for Mengmeng.
He hoped to use this warmth and deliciousness to help her recover quickly.
Jiang Ning opened the refrigerator and carefully selected the fresh ingredients.
A piece of pink, tender pork tenderloin.
Round and plump Northeast rice, which was the soul of the congee.
Two century eggs.
Next to it, neatly arranged were seasonings like tender green scallions, fresh ginger, mellow cooking wine, fine starch, pure white salt, and golden sesame oil.
Around ten minutes later, the porridge base was ready.
Jiang Ning added ginger, adding a spicy warmth to the porridge.
Finally, Jiang Ning extinguished the fire.
He sprinkled on the emerald green scallions.
A steaming bowl of Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee. In the milky white porridge, it was dotted with pink meat slices, dark green century eggs, and emerald green scallions, the color combination harmonious.
The aroma of the porridge wafted out, the fragrance of meat, rice, century egg, and scallions blended together, forming a unique and tempting scent that made people's mouths water.
"It smells so good!"
Mengmeng, who was engrossed in painting in the living room at the time, stopped her pencil and her small face was filled with curiosity.
She turned her head and looked at the kitchen.
Her little nose unconsciously kept sniffing the air, as if drawn by the aroma.
"Uncle Jiang, the Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee you made today smells so, so good! I want to eat it even more than before."
Mengmeng's voice was full of anticipation and excitement.
"Mengmeng, okay, go wash your hands first, and then we'll eat the congee."
The kitchen was filled with Jiang Ning's loving calls.
"Alright! Mengmeng's going to the bathroom to wash her hands, okay?"
Mengmeng quickly put down her paintbrush.
Like a happy little rabbit, she hopped and skipped to the bathroom to wash her hands.
Then, she quickly came to the table.
Her eyes were fixed on the bowl of Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee that smelled so delicious.
Jiang Ning, holding a small bowl of steaming hot porridge, walked over and said with a smile, "Come on, Mengmeng, try it."
"Wow, Uncle Jiang, the porridge you made today smells so good."
Mengmeng said expectantly, her little eyes sparkling.
"Well, then Mengmeng can eat it all later, okay?"
Jiang Ning replied with a smile.
"Mm."
Mengmeng nodded heavily, eager to taste this deliciousness.
Jiang Ning gently blew on the Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee.
He scooped up a spoonful and gently fed it to Mengmeng's mouth.
Mengmeng took a small sip, and the softness of the porridge, the tenderness of the meat, and the unique flavor of the century egg spread in her mouth.
Like a wonderful culinary journey.
It warmed her taste buds and warmed her heart.
"Uncle Jiang, it's so delicious!"
Mengmeng's face bloomed with a look of contentment.
That smile was like a flower blooming in the spring, radiant and beautiful.
At that moment, all of Jiang Ning's efforts transformed into a reward of happiness.
His heart was filled with warmth and satisfaction.
"Yes, it's good. Eat more then."
Jiang Ning looked at Mengmeng, his eyes full of affection.
Since leveling up to Master Chef (Mid-Level).
Even Jiang Ning, who was beside her, couldn't help but swallow.
The deliciousness of this bowl of Century Egg and Lean Meat Congee was irresistible, even to him.
A few minutes later.
"Ring, ring, ring."
A clear phone ringtone broke the peaceful atmosphere.
Jiang Ning picked up the phone.
It was an unfamiliar number.
Who could this be?
He was secretly puzzled.
"Mengmeng, finish eating, and you can continue drawing. Uncle Jiang will take a call."
Mengmeng nodded in a childish voice: "Okay, Mengmeng's painting isn't finished yet."
Afterward, Jiang Ning took the phone and walked onto the balcony.
He politely asked, "Hello, who is this?"
"Hello, are you Master Jiang? I am Wu Lianqu, the chief planner of Huayin."
Hearing that it was a call from Huayin.
Jiang Ning was a little stunned at first, then he reacted: "Huayin? Oh, oh, hello, just call me Xiao Jiang."
