C13 It Smelled so Good

Lin Tian saw Lin Xiaoguo sitting at the table with her chin in her hand, staring at the dishes on the table and swallowing.

Lin Xiaoguo was a very well-behaved child. Although she was greedy, she would not steal food before everyone had eaten.

When he got closer to take a look, Lin Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Xiaobao was squatting on the stool beside Lin Xiaoguo.

The man and cat stared at the food on the table, drooling.

"Xiaobao, don't eat secretly. I won't be able to save you if you get beaten up."

Lin Tian couldn't help but laugh when he heard Lin Xiaoguo reprimanding Xiaobao as if she was warning him. He cleared his throat.

"Xiaoguo, did you call Sister Bai Ling to eat?"

Lin Xiaoguo quickly raised her head and glanced at Lin Tian. Then, she turned her head and continued to stare at the food on the table. When she spoke, only her lips were trembling slightly.

"Brother, I went to call her just now. She will be here soon. Mom is cooking two more dishes in the kitchen and will be out soon. Dad is working in the yard."

She had never seen Lin Xiaoguo so hungry before. Was the food delicious today?

Lin Tian looked at the food on the table. It was a large plate of fish, and waves of fragrance assailed his nostrils. The fragrance he had just smelled came from this plate of food. Even he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, and the hunger in his stomach began to stir.

In his memory, his mother did not have such superb culinary skills.

Her cooking skills were very average and she could cook things well. They were already satisfied if the taste wasn't too salty or too bland.

The steamed fish was white and tender. There were some ginger and scallions on it. There was also some soy sauce on it. Nothing else was put on it.

However, such a plate of steamed fish, which was the same as before, was emitting an extremely attractive taste at the moment.

Lin Tian admired Lin Xiaoguo's self-control. He looked at Lin Xiaoguo and swallowed his saliva several times, but he still did not eat.

At this moment, he heard footsteps coming from the door. It was Bai Ling.

"It smells so good!"

Even Bai Ling sniffled and sighed.

"Time to eat!"

Wang Cuijuan carried two dishes and walked out of the kitchen with a happy face. Lin Guoming also came in from outside.

Everyone sat down and looked at the dishes on the table at the same time. Their eyes lit up and their index fingers moved.

Steamed fish, boiled peanuts, stir-fried vegetables, scrambled eggs.

Why was such a simple dish so attractive?

"Don't just stand there. Hurry up and eat."

As soon as Wang Cuijuan gave the order, everyone immediately started eating.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

With the crisp sound of chopsticks and chopsticks, the wind blew, and the four dishes on the table were only left with a little bit.

The fish on the plate had been eaten up. The meat in the bones had been removed. Even the meat in the sauce had been scooped up.

Most of the stir-fried vegetables and eggs were left.

The five of them put down their chopsticks and started to peel the boiled peanuts. They kept stuffing the peanuts into their mouths as if they had never eaten peanuts in their previous life.

When the peanuts were eaten up, they touched their swollen bellies and leaned against the back of the chair with a reluctant expression.

Lin Xiaoguo nodded her small head like a chick pecking rice.

"Such a delicious fish! What kind of fish is this? I, Lin Xiaoguo, have never eaten such a delicious fish in my life."

Hearing her tone of voice, Wang Cuijuan tapped her on the head and said snappily, "You little brat, how can your memory be worse than mine?

This is a big-headed fish. Didn't I just take you to the wedding banquet last month? At that time, you spat out a mouthful and said it was disgusting, and then you forgot about it?"

Everyone looked at Lin Xiaoguo and burst into laughter.

Lin Xiaoguo's eyes were as round as light bulbs. She could not believe it.

"That's not right, Mom. Are you sure this fish is the same as that fish? Isn't it all steamed? Why is the taste so different?"

Lin Guoming smiled and said, "Maybe this is wild, and it tastes different from the breeders' fish. However, this fish is really delicious."

There was no harm in comparing it. The plate of vegetables was really bad. Especially after eating the fish, the taste of the vegetables was like chewing wax.

It was all cooked by Wang Cuijuan. If there was a difference in the taste, it must be due to the ingredients.

They looked at each other, and the answer was self-evident.

However, were the fish in the swamp really that delicious?

In the past, they had eaten the fish in the swamp and tried their luck when they wanted to eat more. However, the fish they caught were very normal.

They didn't know when such delicious fish would appear in the swamp.

Seeing everyone discussing among themselves, Lin Tian smiled but didn't say anything.

The deliciousness of this fish had opened his eyes. There was no way there could be such a delicious fish in this world.

He was looking forward to it. He didn't know how much longer the four fish he was raising at home would grow after they were fed peanut leaves. Would it be more delicious if the Spirit Energy absorbed more?

He said to Lin Guoming, "Dad, when you have time, help me find out how to contract our farm for the swamp. I want to contract it for a fish pond."

Hearing his light words, everyone's voices suddenly stopped.

Lin Guoming muttered to himself, "Tian, why are you thinking of contracting the fish pond at home? Aren't you going to find a job in the city?"

Lin Tian said honestly, "Yes, I don't plan on going to the city to find a job. It's pretty good now. I'm in charge of the fish pond and the fields at home. Our family can take care of each other. Isn't that good? "

Wang Cuijuan wanted to say something, but she stopped herself. Her expression was uncertain.

Lin Guoming sighed and persuaded, "It's hard to come back to farm and contract the fish pond. It's hard to do these things. It wasn't easy for you to get into university. Finding a job in the city is definitely more comfortable than staying at home with your back facing the yellow soil. It's also more social status. I suggest that you think about it carefully. "

Lin Tian nodded firmly.

"Dad, I've already grown up. I know what I want to do. I've already made up my mind to earn money by farming at home."

Wang Cuijuan sighed heavily, and the joy on her face faded a lot.

When Lin Tian was admitted to university, he enjoyed a period of glory in the village. After all, it was a key university, and not many people in the village could get in.

The villagers envied their family for having a scholar. They all said that after Lin Tian graduated from college, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself in the city and their family would be able to enjoy life.

It was because of this that when their family borrowed money over the years, others would consider this point and lend it to them. They hoped that when Lin Tian became successful in the future, he would bring them some benefits.

Even the couple thought so. When Lin Tian graduated and found a job, their burden would be lighter. They couldn't get out of the mountain village, so their son fulfilled their wish for them.

But now, Lin Tian's words had shattered their beautiful dream.

The dining table was silent. Even Lin Xiaoguo did not dare to speak. She hugged Xiaobao tightly, not letting him do anything.
