She thought the injured man that the man was talking about should be Luo Xichu.

At that time, when the original owner picked up Luo Xichu in the mountain, it was still raining heavily. Luo Xichu was unconscious like a drenched chicken.

Although Luo Xichu didn’t have any external injuries, he had a high fever and looked quite miserable.

But she didn’t know if the man in black was a good person or a bad person.

She thought she’d better ask Luo Xichu later.

She assumed maybe she could send Luo Xichu, the crown prince, packing earlier if that man was a good person.

As Bai Jinyao thought about this, she sped up her movements.

Soon, she had feathered the pheasant, washed it, cut it into small pieces, and began to prepare the seasoning.

She was planning to make stewed chick with mushrooms.

It just so happened that there were mushrooms and ginger at home. She saw there was no cooking wine, so she decided to use yellow rice wine instead.

She wanted to make it more nourishing so that Luo Xichu could recover and leave earlier.

Bai Jinyao’s mind was filled with this thought.

She nimbly put the chicken into the pot and boiled the blood away.

Then, she took out a ceramic pot and put the chicken pieces in it. She poured water in and put the lid back on after she was done.

After the chicken was cooked for a while, he put the mushrooms in. The dish would be almost done.

When the chicken was being stewed, Bai Jinyao started to make other side dishes.

Bai Jinyao’s preference for food was similar to the original owner’s. Both of them liked spicy and sweet food.

She thought perhaps this was the reason why the original owner had pimples on her face.

However, now that Bai Jinyao was on a diet, she had to eat less spicy food and sweet food.

It just so happened that Mrs. Bai liked to eat light food. Luo Xichu was a patient and also needed to eat light food.

Therefore, Bai Jinyao simply made three light side dishes.

By the time Bai Jinyao finished cooking, Mrs. Bai had already returned with the rabbit.

“Mother, you’re back. I’ve already prepared the food. Why don’t you put the rabbit in the basket and come to eat?”

Bai Jinyao saw that her mother had returned and shouted.

Mrs. Bai responded, washed her hands, and came in to help bring the dishes to the living room.

Although there were only the two of them at home, Mrs. Bai had always been attentive to the formality.

Bai Jinyao prepared Luo Xichu’s medicine and ate with her mother.

Mrs. Bai looked at the delicious food, smelled the chicken soup, and praised her with relief.

“Yaoyao, your cooking skills are really good! If my cooking was half as good as yours, then I would be able to share some of your burden.”

“Mother, you haven’t tried it yet. You said it’s delicious, but what if it’s not?”

Bai Jinyao laughed as she scooped a spoonful of chicken soup for her mother.

“It’ll definitely be delicious!”

Mrs. Bai seemed to be full of confidence in Bai Jinyao.

“It’s really delicious! Yaoyao, why don’t you teach me how to cook? I have always felt that my cooking skill is really not good, but you and Jinyan never complain about my cooking.”

“I really feel sorry for you. You would eat whatever I make for you.”

Mrs. Bai took a sip of the chicken soup, and tears were about to come out as she spoke.

Bai Jinyao took out a handkerchief and wiped Mrs. Bai’s tears.

“Mother, why are you crying again? If you want to learn, I can teach you, but you don’t have to force yourself. If I have time at home, I can also cook.”

“But, I just feel that I can’t be of any help to you at home.”

Mrs. Bai seemed to have a nervous breakdown, and her tears kept flowing.

Bai Jinyao comforted her for a long time before she was finally relieved.
