After Being an Improper Control Group as an Abandoned Wealthy Wife, She Effortlessly Came Out on Top

She and Qi Yan did the same thing. They blanched the pork belly first then added cooking wine, boiling it before they started the pot.

However, Qi Yan put the entire piece of pork belly into a pot to boil, only dealing with it after scooping it up. She realized that the piece of meat was a little hot and not easy to cut, so she poured a basin of cold water and soaked the meat in it in order to cool it down.

[Not bad, this Miss Qi even knows how to blanch meat, but the steps seem to have been reversed, hahaha.]

[If Qi Yan hadn’t boiled the meat first, I would have suspected that she was copying Sister Meng.]

[It smells like a competition.]

[Yo, yo, yo. I didn’t expect this. Miss Qi still has some basic culinary skills.] [Although that’s true, Qi Yan has already lost to our Sister Meng at the beginning, hahahaha.]

[Little Jiu Jiu, you’ve formed the wrong team. It’s too late to regret now. Accept the reality of the production team’s beating.]

[Competing with the famous team of slackers, you do have some backbone, but not much.]

After Lu Jinsen peeled the potato, washed it, and brought it back, Meng Chuyuan cut it into pieces and placed it aside as a backup.

Meng Chuyuan cut some ginger and scallions. Seeing that Lu Jinsen was standing at the side, waiting to be summoned, she found something for him to do. “Break up the broccoli. If it’s slightly hard, you can cut it off with a knife.”

“Okay.”

Meng Chuyuan was making pork belly stewed with potatoes tonight.

She began to boil the oil in the pot and added a small handful of rock sugar. When the rock sugar melted and was stir-fried to a caramel color, she added the pork belly. She placed the corresponding seasonings in the pot and added a suitable amount of water to stew for a while.

When the meat was almost stewed, Meng Chuyuan put the potato pieces in, added some edible salt, closed the lid of the pot, and stewed the potato pieces until they were soft. Then, she collected the juice and started the pot.

At this moment, Qi Yan had already cut the meat.

She planned to make braised pork first. Coincidentally, on the night of the recording, she learned braised pork ribs from the boss of the trendy restaurant.

Qi Yan felt that the pork ribs and meat were similar. She placed the cut meat into the pot and stir-fried it. She added a pile of seasoning and ginger and garlic and added clear water to braise it.

Ting Jiu peeled the potatoes and even processed the lettuce, broccoli, green melon, and other vegetables.

Seeing that Qi Yan was making braised pork, Ting Jiu came over with peeled potatoes and said humbly, “Should I cut these potatoes for you?”

Qi Yan frowned and replied coldly, “When did I say I wanted potatoes?”

She didn’t plan to do anything else. She just wanted to finish this braised pork.

As for the remaining ingredients, it had nothing to do with her.

“Alright.” Ting Jiu, having been rejected by her, could only walk away.

Seeing that Liao Jiayan was making a vegetable salad, Ting Jiu shamelessly went over to ask for guidance.

Ting Jiu couldn’t tell if the person in front of him was an elder sister or a younger sister, so he cleverly changed the way he addressed them. “Sister Liao, can you teach me how to make salad?”

Liao Jiayan looked at the little brother who suddenly appeared and enthusiastically asked him to stay. “Sure.”

[Yan Yan is too good. Boohoo, this is a competition. She’s actually willing to teach Ting Jiu how to make vegetable salad.]

[This Miss Qi’s temper is really worsening day by day. Why does she still act like my Little Jiu Jiu owes her something? I’m really impressed.]

[Hahahaha, you can’t differentiate between the older sister and younger sister so you just address the both of them as Sister Liao. Little Jiu Jiu, you know the ways of the world.]

[Compared to Miss Qi next door, Yan Yan’s actions are really lovable. Her favorability is maxed out.]

[Little Jiu Jiu is running around like an orphan. Director I’m begging you, be human. Think about forming a three person grouping and let Miss Qi fly alone.]

[But Ting Jiu’s temper is also very good. He didn’t say anything about Qi Yan’s expression and tone. Little Jiu Jiu, are you a ninja?]

Seeing that Liao Jiayan did not chase him away, Ting Jiu consciously brought a chair over from the side and sat beside her.

Liao Jiayan glanced at the vegetables he had brought over. They were simply washed and not cut properly.

“You haven’t cooked your broccoli yet?” Liao Jiayan smiled awkwardly and politely. “And this cucumber and little tomato have to be cut.”

Ting Jiu said a little embarrassedly, “Then I’ll go and get these done before coming back?”

Qi Yan was using the pot, so it was difficult for him to cook it.

Liao Jiayan could roughly guess Ting Jiu’s concerns. “Leave this broccoli with me for now. Coincidentally, I’m going to cook it later too. I’ll help you cook it too.”

After the grouping in the morning, everyone knew that Qi Yan and Ting Jiu had made a scene. It was not easy for them to form a team to cook.

Hearing this, Ting Jiu smiled happily. “Thank you, Sister. I’ll go and cut the cucumber and little tomato first.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

[Guys, I suddenly realized that Yan Yan and Ting Jiu look like siblings. I really love the way they get along.]

[Yan Yan looks really beautiful in this scene!! Why don’t we debut right away?

Boohoo, I’m applying to be the president of the fan club.]

[Little Jiu Jiu is chubby and has canine teeth when he smiles. Who wouldn’t love him?]

[Ting Jiu calls everyone sister. His personality is really good. Why is Qi Yan acting so noble? On the first day of filming the variety show, I thought she was quite good-looking and was very gentle to Brother Qi Zhen. How did she become like this?]

After the hot water boiled, Liao Jiayan placed the broccoli in the pot and cooked it. She also added Ting Jiu’s portion.

After a few minutes, Liao Jiayan scooped up the broccoli and gave half to Ting Jiu.

“Sister, is the broccoli ready?”

“Yes.” Seeing that he was about to come over, Liao Jiayan said, “Bring a clean plate over later. I’ll teach you how to make a salad.”

Ting Jiu cut the remaining tomatoes in half, he couldn’t wait to go over and make a vegetable salad with Liao Jiayan.

On the other hand, Meng Chuyuan had already made the ham slices and stir-fried broccoli. They also made a simple salad with the remaining vegetables.

Qi Yan’s pot of meat had been stewed for a long time. Because her meat was very thick, she only opened the lid to check only when the sauce was almost finished. It was almost burnt.

She deliberately added some water to it so that the entire pot of meat would not look so dry. She simmered it for a while.

Liao Jiayan patiently taught Ting Jiu to plate the vegetables. She stacked the lettuce under the plate then, placed broccoli in the outer circle and used the little tomatoes to fill up the empty spaces. Then, she placed the cucumbers on the lettuce and added on the onion pieces and shredded purple kale..
