"Also? Why would you say 'also'? Could it be that not only the gatekeeper of Master's Realm of the Underworld has a problem, but there have also been spies inside before?" Shen Chen asked dangerously, narrowing his eyes sharply at the crowd of kitchen ghosts.
"Yes, that's right, Dark Lord. Before you returned, there were spies in various departments of Realm of the Underworld, and they were investigated by King of the Underworld is not an adult. Fortunately, there have been no incidents since then. I was secretly relieved, but I didn't expect that as soon as you returned, Dark Lord, you would see that there are spies here as well. Dark Lord, you are truly mighty!" The kitchen ghost immediately flattered Shen Chen.
"Is that so? Are you secretly celebrating, glad that your identity as a spy hasn't been exposed?" Suddenly, Shen Chen's voice became sharp as he grabbed the ghost chef by the neck and demanded.
I didn't expect things to turn out like this. I was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the scene in front of me. The chef was still struggling, shouting, " Dark Lord, this is a mistake! You are so wise, you will definitely investigate thoroughly and not wrong a mere little ghost chef like me."
"Shut up. Whether you're innocent or not, you know it in your heart. Come, take this traitor down and interrogate him carefully to see if there are any accomplices." Shen Chen was completely indifferent to the cries of the traitor, and directly had the other guards take him away. Fortunately, after the major elders in the Realm of the Underworld were knocked unconscious, the remaining guards immediately became obedient upon seeing Shen Chen, not daring to disobey his orders.
Seeing the head chef being taken away, the other chefs immediately fell to their knees in fear, showing their innocence. Shen Chen was not the kind of person to involve the innocent, and simply waved his hand casually, saying, "You all step aside from the kitchen. Master and your Queen of the Underworld need to use the kitchen for half a day. You can now stay out of our sight."
Shen Chen had just finished speaking when suddenly, the entire kitchen was empty. There was no sign of anyone else, only the three of us remained. The spacious kitchen now felt desolate.
Originally, I was in a bad mood, but seeing Little Ink's hopeful eyes, my Motherly love immediately kicked in. I walked into the kitchen to see what I could make. Just as Little Ink mentioned wanting to eat Sweet and Sour Fish, I needed to check if there was any fish available. Surprisingly, this place truly lives up to its name as the Realm of the Underworld - it has everything, especially a wide variety of earthly ingredients. It seems that earthly things are the most endearing after all.
At this moment, Little Ink also saw the fish, which was kept alive in the pond. He immediately excitedly grabbed my hand and exclaimed, "Mommy, look, there are fish here! We can have Sweet and Sour Fish. How wonderful! Mommy, what can Little Ink help you with? Washing the vegetables or cleaning the fish, Little Ink can do it all."
As Little Ink spoke, it immediately stirred up my heartache. Little Ink is such a child who makes people feel distressed. I didn't know that Little Ink was my son before. During the years when I was in college, it was Little Ink and my stepmother who lived together. My stepmother was not in good health, but she made Little Ink suffer a lot. He could do everything and didn't seem like a five-year-old child at all. Most five-year-old children are playing and wouldn't do housework. It would be good if they could help their parents wash the dishes. Thinking of this, I quickly interjected, " Little Ink, it's not necessary. Mommy and Daddy can handle it. You don't need to trouble Little Ink anymore. From now on, Little Ink just needs to play well. Go on, go play for a while. We will have Sweet and Sour Fish soon." After saying that, I immediately pushed Little Ink to go and play.
"No, Little Ink wants to cook with Mommy and Daddy, that's more fun." Little Ink didn't want to leave me and Shen Chen, so she pouted and begged.
"Alright, you can watch from the side, the heavy work like cleaning fish, let Daddy do it. Mommy finds killing fish too bloody, and cleaning fish is so dirty, she really doesn't want to do it." I said with a smile, then looked smugly at Shen Chen, wondering what the reaction of the clean-freak Shen Chen would be when I asked him to clean the fish with a strong smell.
I didn't expect that Shen Chen would pick up a net and catch a fish in the pond without even furrowing his brows. He then handed the fish to Gui Li to gut and clean, and placed it in a basin. As if seeking my praise, he placed the fish in front of me and said, "Woman, Master is done cleaning. Look how clean it is. Shouldn't you give Master some reward?"
"Mommy, Daddy wants a kiss from you!" Before I could respond, Little Ink eagerly answered for me, covering his eyes with his hand as if too shy to watch, but leaving a gap between his fingers to peek at the excitement.
I playfully tapped Little Ink on the head and scolded, "You little rascal, go play by yourself and don't cause trouble, or Mommy will spank your bottom."
"Mommy wouldn't bear to spank Little Ink. Little Ink is Mommy and Daddy's little treasure, right Mommy?" Little Ink said fearlessly with a smile.
"Yes, you little rascal, Mommy can't bear to scold you, but Mommy won't do as you wish either. Hehe, Mommy will find a time when you're not around and let Daddy kiss me, so that you, this little troublemaker, won't get to see the fun." Seeing Little Ink like this, I immediately said smugly, teasing Little Ink has become a pleasure for me.
"Mommy, you're so bad. Letting Daddy kiss you is the same. Daddy, you're a man, Mommy is your wife, it's only natural for you to kiss her. Come on, give Little Ink a show." Seeing that I couldn't convince them, this mischievous child Little Ink actually went to instigate Shen Chen to kiss me. It's really hilarious, almost making me laugh out loud.
"Women, Little Ink wants to see us perform. How about we do a little something?" Shen Chen said with a half-smile, while patting Little Ink's head, instantly making my heart skip a beat.
Even though I already have a child with Shen Chen, I still felt a bit embarrassed to show affection in front of Little Ink. So, I quickly said, "The fish is all prepared. I'll cook the fish. If we wait too long, the fish will spoil." After saying that, I hurriedly took the fish basin from Shen Chen and placed it on the cutting board, intending to marinate the fish to remove the fishy smell.
Suddenly, I heard the laughter of Shen Chen and Little Ink behind me, which made me even more embarrassed. My hands were shaking as I grabbed the ingredients, but thankfully I managed to stay in control. I nervously chopped some onions and ginger and put them in the fish bowl, then added some cooking wine and soy sauce to marinate the fish.
Afraid that they would bring up the matter again, I quickly looked for some flour. I planned to coat the fish with flour once it was done marinating. Unfortunately, flour was easy to find and I quickly located it. Now that the fish wasn't ready yet, I had to think of something else to find. Oh right, I still hadn't found the sugar and vinegar. Just as I was thinking about finding them, these two items suddenly appeared in front of me out of nowhere.
Yes, right in front of my eyes. Before I could think about why these two things came to me, my hand had already grabbed them. But it seemed that these two things were not easy to pick up. When I looked up, I saw Shen Chen smiling at my embarrassment.
Seeing this, I pretended to be a little unhappy and said, "What are you doing, teasing me? Let go, can't you see Little Ink is watching us? Aren't you afraid of Little Ink making fun of us?"
"Mommy, Little Ink can't see anything. Little Ink has selective blindness." After hearing my words, Little Ink smiled and opened his eyes, telling his mother a lie.
"Woman, we've been married for so long, there's nothing to be shy about. Come on, let Master give me a kiss." Saying this, Shen Chen actually wanted to kiss me. But when his mouth reached my lips, he whispered in my ear, "Don't move, let's play a trick on Little Ink and have some fun."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Shen Chen finished speaking, Little Ink mercilessly exposed him: "Daddy, can you not be so obvious when you're trying to be secretive? You should know that your son is a genius. You may have lowered your voices, and ordinary people might not have heard you, but who is Little Ink? Little Ink is your son. Can I hear it?"
Seeing this, Shen Chen took a step back and awkwardly said, "Um, Little Ink, Daddy and Mommy will find some other ingredients to make something else delicious for you. Don't worry about this."
"Daddy, it's not Little Ink who's indecisive, it's you who's indecisive. You want to kiss Mommy, it's not Little Ink who wants to kiss. If Little Ink wanted to kiss, it definitely wouldn't be as hesitant as you. Look, Little Ink will show you." After saying this, Little Ink actually ran over with short legs, grabbed my hand, and kissed me, and it was a loud one at that, making me feel like a flock of crows flying in the sky. This little rascal, really, why does he have to like watching his parents kiss? It's not a good habit.
Seeing this, in order to quiet Little Ink down for a while, Shen Chen and I glanced at each other, gave a quick peck, and then said to Little Ink, "Alright, kiss done. It's time for your main meal, Little Ink. What do you want to eat, pancakes, dumplings, or noodles? You can choose whatever you want, as long as Mommy can make it."
"Little Ink still wants to eat the fried egg noodles we had last time, it was really delicious. Daddy, you haven't tried the fried egg noodles made by Mommy before, so this time you can have a taste." Little Ink said, almost drooling, truly a child at heart, unable to resist the temptation of good food even as a little adult.
I nodded and started to gather the ingredients to make the fried egg noodles. Once the noodles were ready and the fish marinated, I fried the fish and prepared a sweet and sour sauce. A delicious Sweet and Sour Fish was ready. Little Ink immediately picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Before he ate, he also made sure to give me and Shen Chen each a bite. This warmed my and Shen Chen's hearts. I really wish our family could continue to live happily like this.
Unfortunately, a discordant voice shattered our harmony, as a messenger from the underworld reported that a group of unidentified blood clan members had arrived. At the mention of the blood clan, I immediately thought of small blood. I wonder how small blood is doing, and if they still remember me. Oh, right, they wouldn't have come specifically to find me to drink my blood, would they? Just thinking about it makes me feel terrible.
