Meng Meng's virtual figure made a face as if to apologize, but said seriously: "In this space, there is nothing you can't see, only things you can't think of. Master, please choose according to your needs."

Ran He's eyes gently swept over the children beside him, and he understood in his heart.

This supernatural ability is undoubtedly shocking in their eyes. Explaining it would only cause more confusion and panic. It is better to keep it secret for the time being to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Children, Mom is going to be out for a while and will be back soon. Please wait patiently."

Ran He hurriedly left the table and walked towards the firewood pile outside the house.

She looked around and made sure that no one was watching before she carefully unfolded the space panel hidden deep in her mind.

There are a wide variety of seasoning options in front of you, even including spices like star anise.

The points required are surprisingly few, mostly no more than three or five points.

Recalling the 100 points I exchanged for five taels of silver a few days ago, the remaining 90 points after buying the burn ointment seemed more than sufficient when compared with these seasonings.

Holding the newly exchanged spices in his arms, Ran He returned to the house.

The children stretched their necks one by one, with curiosity and confusion flashing in their eyes.

Their little heads were full of confusion as their mother came in and out.

How did he magically bring back these wonderful items that had never been seen before?

"These are gifts from my friends in town. They are delicious when used to make crayfish. Children, we have to keep it a secret, okay? This is a little secret between us."

Ran He pretended to be mysterious, with a hint of playfulness in his tone. When San Bao heard it, he immediately nodded solemnly, pounded his chest with his little fist, and promised solemnly: "Mom, don't worry, I will never tell anyone!"

The onions, ginger and garlic in the pot were no longer just slightly burnt, but had completely turned into dark brown crumbs.

The burnt bitter smell lingered in the small kitchen.

Ran He sighed, and with his nimble fingers he quickly fished out the burnt seasonings, threw them aside, and turned to the fresh ingredients beside him.

Select the emerald green onion segments, plump garlic cloves and slender ginger shreds, and put them into the hot oil one by one.

This time, she carefully controlled the heat, and when the aroma of onion, ginger and garlic began to dance happily in the air, she quickly added a few spoonfuls of mellow cooking wine, a touch of deep soy sauce, and a few drops of shiny oyster sauce.

Finally, don’t forget to sprinkle a handful of finely chopped bean paste. The aroma of the sauce instantly fills the entire space, interweaving into a delicious temptation that is hard to resist.

The cleaned crayfish are slowly poured into this rich seasoning. In an instant, the bright red shells and emerald green peppers jump and dance in the pot. Every stir-fry seems to weave a colorful food picture.

Ran He's eyes followed how the bright red chili slices were intimately attached to the shrimp shell. The anticipation in his heart and the saliva that was about to overflow from the corners of his mouth boiled together.

This extraordinary fragrance, as if it had its own will, quietly slipped through the gaps in Ran He's simple doors and windows, playing along the way. The first group to be fooled by it and left without any resistance was Wu's mother and her family who lived not far away.

Wu Yue was enjoying the smooth egg custard in her hand.

However, as the aroma invaded, the porcelain spoon in Wu Ming's hand couldn't help but stop in mid-air.

The warmth of the egg custard seemed to lose all its charm in an instant.

Without even thinking, he scooped away two spoonfuls of egg custard.

Just to fill the bottom of the bowl, trying to resist the strong temptation from next door.

However, compared with the aroma of crayfish, the egg custard is like a tiny firefly meeting the bright moon. They are not in the same weight class at all, and one can tell the difference at a glance.

"Mom, do you think this fragrance is coming from Ran He?"

Although Xie Di was reluctant to believe it, after all, the distance between the two houses was only a few dozen meters. Apart from Ran He, who else could make this fragrance travel through time and touch people's hearts? But she had a vague answer in her heart.

"Probably not?"

Wu Ming shook his head, dissatisfied with his unkempt appearance on weekdays.

For Ran He, whose life seemed to revolve around Ma Er, it was hard for him to imagine that she could have such cooking skills.

"I'll go and see for myself."

Mother Wu put down her chopsticks, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, then she stood up hurriedly and walked out the door.

Standing outside Ran He's door, Wu's mother did not rush to act, but put her ear gently to the ground, trying to capture more information from the crack in the door.

The fragrance was like a naughty child, constantly drilling into her nose, causing waves of thirst in the depths of her throat.

What kind of delicacy can make the air so charming?

Could it be that the things that Ran He brought back could really be turned from pests into delicacies?

Chapter 19: The Temptation of Crayfish

Looking back, when everyone saw Ran He bringing back those "pests" from the fields, they all looked at him with confusion and contempt, thinking that Ran He was either mad with hunger or was simply thinking too much.

Now, the fragrance that filled the room was like a loud slap in the face, making everyone's cheeks hot.

Wu's mother, who was lying by the door, couldn't help but choke on her. She secretly blamed Ran He for being ignorant and not even leaving a little bit of delicious food for the two elders at home.

The more she thought about it, the more dissatisfied Wu's mother became. Finally, she took all her strength and knocked hard on the door.

Ran He who was inside the door seemed to have expected this. When he opened the door, there was no panic on his face. His eyes were calm, revealing a subtle determination.

This situation further strengthened Wu's mother's determination to divide the family - Wu's mother, Xie Di and Wu Ming, they were all greedy for small profits.

This kind of life is really unbearable.

"What do you want from me?"

Ran He met Wu's mother's slightly provocative gaze and asked back in a calm tone.

The once majestic Mother Wu, after experiencing a series of confrontations with Ran He.

When facing Ran He again, he couldn't help feeling a little insecure. He had a lot of complaints ready, but now he couldn't say them out loud.

"Ran He, what are you cooking? It smells so good. I remember you didn't take any ingredients from the kitchen today."

While asking, Wu's mother tried hard to peek at the scene behind the door, but the angle was not good.

In addition, Ran He cleverly stood at the door, so she could only see vague shadows and could not get a full picture.

"What I cooked and whether I took the ingredients from the kitchen seems to have nothing to do with you, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wu's mother's face became even gloomier, and she felt anger rising in her chest.

Does Ran He’s words mean that I will no longer share good things with them in the future?

If this is the case, what's the point of continuing to stay at the Wu family for meals? It would be better to separate as soon as possible and live our own lives!

"How can you talk to me like that? You have to remember that your father and I are your elders no matter what. Even though we haven't been able to take care of you enough over the years, we have ensured that your mother and your siblings have a roof over their heads and have enough food and clothing."
