Jianghuai Tower at night.

"Welcome to China, and make sure you eat and drink well later!" At the dinner table, Zhao Lingshan raised the drink in her hand, and Jin Nana hesitated for a moment and responded politely.

"Well, let me tell you something important. I just received a request from a friend today, and I need to go to Yuezhou to attend an auction. I'm sorry to trouble you, Shanshan, with Xunjie's matter for the time being." Before the dishes were served, Chen Xi took the lead in speaking to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Ah? I've never been to an auction in China. I want to take a good look at it." Jin Nana said excitedly.

"Why should I stay here? No, I want to go with you." Zhao Lingshan was unhappy, especially now that another woman appeared, which made her unwilling to stay in Xinlu.

"Why are you going with us?"

"If you can go, why can't I?"

The quarrel between the two began again. Chen Xi was also very troubled. He couldn't leave Jin Nana alone in Xinlu. He thought about it and decided to take both women with him: "Stop quarreling and go together."

"What's your relationship with her? Why are you so protective of her?" Jin Nana rolled her eyes at him jealously.

"We're going to do something very important this time. If you two make trouble again, I won't take either of you with me." Chen Xi had a stern face, acting like the head of the family.

"If you don't want to make a fuss, then don't make a fuss. Why are you being so fierce?" Jin Nana curled her lips.

"Hehe." Seeing Jin Nana being humiliated, Zhao Lingshan laughed secretly.

"Why do you want to go to the auction?" She asked again, not understanding the reason.

"Sister Ling asked me to help her take a picture of something. I don't know the details, so you need to keep it secret."

"The woman who saved you in the bend last time?"

"Ah."

"When did you two go to the cornering area?" the sharp-eared Jin Nana asked unhappily.

At this time, the door of the box was opened, and the waiters brought the dishes to the table one after another.

At this time, Jin Nana was attracted by the delicious dishes and looked at the dishes on the table curiously. There seemed to be nothing scary about them.

"Come and try the food in our restaurant. It's definitely much better than those kimchi you have."

"What's there to be proud of? There are so many delicious foods in the world, it's just that you have more varieties here. Everyone has different tastes, there's no need to belittle the food of our Korean country." Although Jin Nana said that, her face turned red.

The food in Kimchi Country is all similar, either soybean paste soup, barbecue, kimchi, etc., or they add some cheese to imitate Western food to create a new variety.

"Haha, I won't argue with you on this point. Just try it first."

"you eat first."

"Are you afraid that I will poison you? Okay, I'll eat first. Look how timid you are." Zhao Lingshan smiled, picked up the chopsticks and first gave some to Chen Xi, then picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth.

Seeing that the other party had started eating and mocked her for being timid, Jin Nana also started eating with her chopsticks.

As the food entered her mouth, the delicious taste stimulated her taste buds. Jin Nana originally thought that the other party would play a trick on her, but after eating several dishes in a row, she didn't feel anything wrong, so she relaxed her vigilance.

Chen Xi looked at Zhao Lingshan in confusion, but she raised her eyebrows at him. Chen Xi didn't know what she was up to, but he didn't plan to ask.

"Well, come and try this Jianghuai delicacy." A few minutes later, Zhao Lingshan opened the lid of a casserole, and inside was something white that looked like marshmallows.

"What is this? It's moldy!" When Jin Nana saw what was in the pot, she got goosebumps.

"This is Mao tofu, a delicacy from the southern part of our Jianghuai Province..." Chen Xi explained with a smile.

Mao tofu is a local specialty of Jianghuai Province and a representative of Jianghuai cuisine. It is famous for its unique production process and flavor and is one of the traditional Chinese folk delicacies. The production process of Mao tofu is to cut the tofu into blocks and ferment it, so that a layer of white hair grows on the surface of the tofu. This is the mold layer that naturally forms after the tofu is carefully fermented. This mold layer gives Mao tofu a unique flavor and taste. After cooking, it tastes delicious and has a fragrant aroma.

There are many ways to cook hairy tofu. It can be fried, baked or deep-fried, and then stewed with onions, ginger, sugar, salt, meat broth, soy sauce and other seasonings. When served, it is often accompanied by chili sauce and other condiments, making the whole dish more fresh, refreshing and fragrant. In addition, hairy tofu can also stimulate the appetite and is deeply loved by diners.

In other words, it is different from stinky tofu, which smells bad but tastes good, while hairy tofu looks scary but tastes delicious.

"I won't eat it, but you can eat it if you want. If you eat this thing, you will definitely get sick. How can you eat mold? It's not scientific at all." Jin Nana shook her head desperately.

"I told you Koreans don't understand good food, so let me tell you about some world-famous foods that contain mold... Sakura Country has a close relationship with you, so you must have heard of food like natto.

Natto is a food made from fermented soybeans. Its surface is covered with white sticky substances, which are actually the hyphae of the natto bacteria. Natto has a unique smell and taste. The sticky beans will be pulled into long threads after stirring. The Japanese often mix it with rice or rice noodles for consumption.

Let's talk about a piece of cheese from Europe and America. You must have seen this in Australia. Many foreigners love it. That is blue cheese! These molds grow and ferment inside the cheese, forming a rich aroma and unique taste. Although it may smell moldy, it tastes unique and is a favorite of many cheese lovers...

There are also fermented bean curd, fermented thousand sheets, fermented amaranth stems... You haven't heard of these, so I won't explain them one by one." Zhao Lingshan proudly described the food that was similar to Mao tofu, which made Jin Nana blush.

"If you have the guts, eat it first!" Jin Nana smiled wickedly. She would not be fooled by the other party's nonsense.

"I knew you were timid, so I'll eat first!"

"You are the timid one!" Jin Nana responded, but did not move her chopsticks. Instead, she watched Zhao Lingshan pick up a piece of tofu and put it into her mouth.

"It's so delicious! But it's a pity that some people can't enjoy it." Zhao Lingshan mocked while eating.

Chen Xi smiled and picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Seeing that both of them had eaten, Jin Nana finally plucked up the courage to pick up her chopsticks.

But when she put the tofu into her mouth with a frown and chewed it for a few times, her face turned red. She then spit the tofu into the plate and quickly picked up the drink next to her and drank it.

"Hahaha."

“You…cough…cough…”

Jin Nana coughed and pointed angrily at Zhao Lingshan who was laughing.

Chen Xi knew without even thinking that it must be Zhao Lingshan who asked the chef to do this.

"Isn't it delicious?"

"It tastes so bad! It's so spicy... No, it's bitter, spicy and sour..." Looking at the boastful Zhao Lingshan, Jin Nana almost jumped up in anger.

The taste of the special hairy tofu she ate could be described as strange and stimulating. Each section had a different taste. Jin Nana couldn't figure out what the specific taste was. Anyway, it was just two words - uncomfortable!

"Try the others, they are delicious."

"Taste nothing, if you want to eat it, eat it yourself."

"Didn't you say before that you wanted to marry here? How come you can't even accept the local food? If you marry Chen Xi in the future, won't you force her to eat kimchi every day?"

"It must be you who's playing tricks on me. Both Chen Xi and you were fine after eating it, so why did it become a problem for me?" Jin Nana was not stupid either. When she saw Chen Xi laughing secretly, she reacted quickly.

"No, no. It's obviously you, a foreigner, who doesn't understand the profoundness of Chinese cuisine." Zhao Lingshan shook her head, looking like an old scholar chanting sutras.

"Humph, I don't want to bother with you. Next time you come to Kimchi Country, I'll show you what a state banquet is."

"Pfft~ Family Bucket of Side Dishes?" Chen Xi couldn't help laughing. "Good for you, helping her deal with me everywhere." Jin Nana couldn't stand it anymore and punched him on the arm with a pink fist.

"Look at how violent you are. Chen Xi likes gentle women. If a man marries you, he will definitely be abused every day."

"Oh, you don't need to worry about this. If you can't eat the grapes, you will say they are sour!" Jin Nana brought out her 'signboard of the real girlfriend' again.

"Humph, you are so self-righteous. Chen Xi and I grew up together, and our families have a special relationship. Stop showing off."

"I just met Chen Xi's grandmother today, and she praised me..."

"What are you praising me for?" Zhao Lingshan pricked up her ears curiously.

"Praise me... praise me... keep myself clean!" Jin Nana repeated Jing Li's words verbatim, although she did not understand the meaning.

"Hahaha! You are so funny. Go back and study Chinese." Zhao Lingshan laughed and then patted Chen Xi's thigh, implying a compliment on the distance Chen Xi kept from Jin Nana.

These two people didn't do anything, so she felt relieved.

I thought a new competitor had emerged.

After dinner, Jin Nana deliberately hugged Chen Xi's arm and said, "Honey, I'm a little sleepy. Why don't we go back to the hotel and do what we didn't finish yesterday."

Damn, what is this little Korean guy doing?
Chen Xi was startled because he felt a chill coming from behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Zhao Lingshan staring at him with a gloomy face.

"Shanshan, don't listen to her nonsense." Chen Xi argued.

"Oh, dear. Our normal married life, why do you have to explain it to others?" Jin Nana stuck to him and rubbed against him like a kitten.

"Drip."

"Hey, Mom."

"You damn boy, are you not going home tonight again? Your grandma told me how you got a Korean girlfriend? You even made up a bunch of lies to fool your grandma. Do you think we are really old and blind... Come back now, right now, and bring your new girlfriend back with you."

"dudu~"

Looking at the disconnected call link, Chen Xi looked at Jin Nana again, and then let out a long sigh.

Forty minutes later, inside Victoria Manor.

"Why did you follow us back? I'm here to meet my future mother-in-law." Jin Nana asked this question countless times on the way, but Zhao Lingshan didn't say a word.

"We're home!" As soon as the car stopped, Zhao Lingshan opened the door with a smile and ran into the house first.

"This woman must be suffering from some serious illness!" Jin Nana looked at the air in front of her and cursed softly.

After entering the house, Chen Xi saw Zhao Lingshan whispering in Chen Caiyue's ear.

It was the first time that Jin Nana met her future mother-in-law. She seemed a little nervous and rubbed her little hands behind her back nervously.

Seeing Chen Xi leading the strange girl back home, Chen Caiyue stood up and walked over, staring at her son with narrowed eyes.

"Hello, uncle... aunt... I'm Jin Nana from Korea. I met Chen Xi in Australia... It's our first meeting, and I'm very sorry that I didn't have time to bring a gift." Jin Nana stepped forward and bowed to Chen Caiyue.

Looking at the polite girl in front of her, Chen Caiyue's anger subsided a lot, and she felt sorry for that girl Saori.

Chen Caiyue quite likes Saori. She is well-behaved, sensible and cute.

"Mom... things are not what you think..."

"Shut up, I know everything." Chen Caiyue had a stern face. Zhao Lingshan stood behind her and spread her hands to show that she was not talking nonsense.

"Ah? What do you know?" Chen Xi looked confused.

"Just like your dad!" Chen Caiyue glared at Chen Xi, then pointed at the stairs, meaning for him to go up.

"Woof woof!" At this time, Diandian and Amy ran over. They were very excited to see strangers and kept circling around Jin Nana.

"What cute puppies!" When Jin Nana saw the fluffy white Bichon Frise, her heart melted immediately and she subconsciously squatted down and touched them.

"Hey, I'll go upstairs first. You guys chat with my mom for a while." Chen Xi looked at Chen Caiyue's serious eyes and could only go upstairs to avoid her.

"Nana, I heard from Shanshan that you and Saori are good friends, right?"

"Huh? Aunt, how do you know Saori?" Jin Nana raised her head with a question mark on her face.

"Well, Chen Xi and Saori were high school classmates. I've heard her talk about it before."

"Huh? How could I not remember? Chen Xicai and I were classmates in high school. Auntie, did you remember it wrongly?"

"..."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Caiyue and Zhao Lingshan fell silent. They looked at each other and didn't know what to say.

They already knew that Jin Nana was crazy, but they didn't expect her to be so seriously ill.

It's basically like swapping my identity with Saori's.

"Well... let's sit down and chat slowly." Chen Caiyue said, pointing to the sofa.

Seeing this, Jin Nana no longer had the heart to tease the puppy and just walked over obediently.

"What does your family do?" Chen Caiyue didn't believe Chen Xi's lies at first, but after hearing what Jin Nana just said, her mind was shaken. She wanted to ask the other party about the specific situation before making a decision.

"To answer your aunt, my family does business in Kimchi Country."

"How long have you been in Australia?"

"It was over in high school, about the same time Chen Xi was there."

"Where did you go to high school?"

"Ah?" Jin Nana was stunned by the question.

Isn't he in the same high school as your son?

"BXXXXX"

"Oh." Chen Caiyue nodded. The name of the school was correct. It seemed that this kid was really out of his mind. (End of this chapter)
