The two of them ordered a dish and a bowl of rice to eat separately. They could have a taste of the food without worrying about being stuffed or not being able to finish it. It was just right.
Jiang Ran didn't know what was going on with her. Anyway, when she came back to her senses, she was already sitting face to face with Pei Huai.
The two of them sat face to face. There was already a casserole on the table. There was braised mutton in it, and it was still bubbling.
A bowl of rice was divided into two bowls by Pei Huai.
Pei Huai gave half of the bowl to Jiang Ran. "Eat, don't be in a daze.
We'll go back after eating. "
The rain outside was no longer as heavy as before. Perhaps the rain would stop by the time they finished eating.
Jiang Ran picked up her chopsticks and put a piece of mutton into her bowl.
The mutton had been stewed until it was extremely soft and tender. With a gentle pinch of the chopsticks, it could be divided into two halves.
The soup was also fragrant and thick, and it was crimson red.
When the gravy touched the rice, the originally ordinary rice became tempting.
Jiang Ran was a chef herself. When she ate, she would always think in the same way as a chef.
First, she smelled the aroma, then looked at the color, and finally tasted its taste.
After staring at it for a while, Jiang Ran picked up a piece of mutton and put it into her mouth.
When the mutton entered her mouth, she didn't need to chew much. It fell apart with a sip.
When the mutton was stewed to this extent, it was really soft.
This mutton was not only soft, but also very tasty.
With just one bite, Jiang Ran narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.
After eating the meat, she ate a mouthful of rice with soup. It was indescribably comfortable.
Jiang Ran ate in enjoyment and tasted the food wholeheartedly. She didn't notice Pei Huai sitting opposite her at all.
Pei Huai glanced at Jiang Ran several times. Seeing that Jiang Ran didn't even look at him, his eyes were full of helplessness.
Although his eyes were helpless, the corners of his mouth were smiling.
There was only one dish and one bowl of rice in total. Both of them had a big appetite. Although they had just eaten, they still finished everything.
After they finished eating and paid, the sky outside was almost completely dark.
Although the rain had not completely stopped, it had become a fine drizzle, which was within the tolerable range.
The two of them didn't say much. They each got on their respective mounts and headed for the small courtyard.
Ten minutes later, the two of them returned to the courtyard.
Before they set off, Pei Jing had already been picked up and left at home to play with Pei Shanshan.
When Jiang Ran and Pei Huai entered the courtyard, Pei Jing was sitting on a small stool at the entrance of the central room. His hands were supporting his chin as he stared intently at the entrance.
As soon as he saw Jiang Ran and Pei Huai riding in, his dull eyes instantly lit up and he stood up.
"Dad, Mom, you're back!"
When Pei Shanshan heard Pei Jing's words, she also walked out of the house.
When she saw Jiang Ran and Pei Huai, Pei Shanshan smiled and said, "Xiao Jing has asked so many times why you're not back yet. Now you're finally back."
Jiang Ran and Pei Huai parked their mounts under the canopy and then walked over to Pei Jing's side.
Jiang Ran squatted down. Before she could say anything, Pei Jing said, "Mom, sit here!"
He was pointing at the small stool that he had just sat on.
