Chapter 268 Gratitude
During the lunch break, Nanzhi and his group left the school and headed towards the village.

At this moment, Qi Pei'er was in such a great mood because of today's great victory!

She was still muttering about having something delicious to reward everyone.

Nanzhi listened with a smile and naturally continued:
"Why don't I prepare it and we can have dinner at my house?"

There is plenty of vegetables in the mountains, if nothing else.

Although the ID card Nanzhi drew was in poor condition and her pocket money was low, it was still no problem for her to treat everyone to a meal.

Moreover, in Nanzhi's opinion, the successful conclusion of today's show is inseparable from the help of Qi Pei'er, Fu Chao and Xie Yu!

"Pearl is the biggest contributor."

Nanzhi looked at Qi Peier with special approval!

Qi Pei'er was flattered:
"Me, me?"

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows, with a smile on her face:
"Is not it?"

Qi Peier nodded excitedly:
"Yes! Of course!"

Her excited reaction caught Fu Chao's eyes, causing him to snort in disdain.

Xie Yu was calm and just looked at everyone with a smile.

Oh, and there's also a grouchy little guy.

Nanzhi, who was watching Qi Pei'er jumping around with a smile on her face, suddenly felt the corner of her clothes being gently pulled.

When she turned around, she found it was Nan Yi. He was trying hard to pretend not to care but was actually stealing glances at Nan Zhi, which made Nan Zhi's heart soften.

Nanzhi immediately touched Nanyi's head:

"Well, Yi Yi did a good job too."

Before, Nan Yi would be extremely happy whenever she heard her mother praising her.

But now, maybe because he has grown up and become more sensible, and is not so easy to fool, after hearing Nanzhi's praise, he first pursed his lips, and then asked in a low voice:
"What did I do well?"

He clearly did nothing.

Nanzhi subconsciously wanted to answer "Everything is done well."

But when he glanced at Nan Yi's serious and determined little face, he felt that this answer was too confusing and seemed to show that he was not serious.

She thought for a moment and said:
"Well, maybe it's because with Yi Yi around, Mom has unlimited courage and strength."

"That's right!"

Qi Pei'er immediately jumped out to support and echoed, exaggeratingly talking about how hard Nanzhi had worked to prepare from yesterday to today, and how she had managed to hold on only because of her longing for Nanyi.

Qi Pei'er sighed:
"Yiyi, you really can't live without your mother!"

"Y-really?"

Nan Yi was still naive and believed Qi Pei'er's words without a doubt.

Even showing a little shyness.

Even the uneasiness caused by being ignored and neglected by Nanzhi in the past two days was diluted.

Only Fu Chao rolled his eyes, silently condemning Qi Pei'er for deceiving the children.

Of course, no matter how stupid he was, he would not say it in front of Nan Yi. He could only nod and say yes, yes.

The atmosphere was cheerful.

However, when the matter of going to Nanzhi's house for dinner was brought up again, Qi Pei'er took the lead in refusing.

"You are so tired today, of course you need to have a good rest. Why don't we go to a fellow villager's house tonight and pay them to cook a table of delicious local dishes for us!"

If you go to town to eat, it takes too much time to go back and forth.

Among them, apart from Nanzhi, Xie Yu is the best at cooking.

But in today's cooking class, Xie Yu has been helping Nanzhi, and in terms of working harder, he is no less tired than Nanzhi.

So, thinking in this way, Qi Pei'er's proposal was the best. Only Fu Chao disagreed.

He raised his hand and volunteered:
"Why don't you let me cook? I can do it too!"

"You? What would you do?"

"I made dumplings last time!"

Fu Chao argued vigorously.

Qi Pei'er said "oh" and turned away as if nothing had happened. She continued to talk to Nanzhi about dinner in the evening. She also mentioned that she had eaten a dish made by a fellow villager two days ago. It was an authentic farm dish made from fish caught in the fields. The taste was so unique that Nanzhi was a little tempted.

Fu Chao wisely chose to shut up and not continue to humiliate himself.

Soon, they were near Nanzhi's residence.

Although Nanzhi's home is located in a remote area, it is the closest to the school.

The others were just about to wave goodbye to Nanzhi and let her go back and have a good rest.

As a result, a strange figure appeared in everyone's sight.

It was unfamiliar to Qi Pei'er and Xie Yu, but not unfamiliar to Fu Chao.

Master Xu Jin raised his hand awkwardly:
"Master Nan, Master Nan."

Master Xu Jin, who looks ferocious, appears a little embarrassed.

When Nanzhi saw him appear, she guessed why he came.

Progress was faster than she had imagined.

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows with pleasure and asked with a smile:
"Master Xu, are you done?"

When it comes to professional matters, Master Xu Jin seems much more calm.

He rambled on:

"Yes, yes, it's done. It's better than we imagined! No one thought that such an old-fashioned machine could produce such a taste. They all said it was incredible... uh."

Seeing the confused expressions of Qi Pei'er, Fu Chao, Xie Yu and others, Master Xu Jin braked the car awkwardly.

Nanzhi explained at the right time:

"I helped Master Xu improve the taste of their food factory's new products."

The three of them were stunned.

Qi Pei'er seemed the most enthusiastic:
"Really? Is it a snack? Can I try it?"

The emphasis is on the last sentence.

The straightforward Master Xu Jin took the bag in his hand and walked out without thinking:
"That's perfect! These are for Master Nan to taste. You are Master Nan's friends, so try them too!"

Master Xu Jin's cold face softened because of anticipation.

He distributed the new buckwheat crisps in the box and then waited nervously for everyone's feedback.

The children's reactions were immediate.

Qi Zhang exclaimed: "This is delicious!"

Nan Yi, who was expressing himself implicitly, also nodded: "Yeah, it's delicious." It's just not as good as what my mom makes.

Among the other three, Fu Chao had eaten Master Xu Jin's version of buckwheat pastry.

When he ate the buckwheat crisps in front of him, he couldn't believe that he was eating the same product:
"Is this really the same thing? This tastes so good! The more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes!"

Qi Pei'er likes to eat sweet things, and she is so happy that she wants to swallow even her fingers:
"It's delicious! And it's not too sweet at all. Instead, it has a refreshing taste. This kind of shortbread actually gives people a refreshing feeling? It's amazing!"

Xie Yu also nodded and said:
“The proportions are just right, and it’s no worse than the best plain-casserole restaurants in the country.”

This is undoubtedly the highest praise Master Xu Jin has ever received!
Master Xu Jin shook his head modestly:
"No, it's all thanks to Master Nan... By the way, I just heard that you guys want to find a place to eat tonight? How about going to my house? I'll cook for you myself, and it's a good opportunity to express my gratitude to Master Nan!"

This was probably the time when Master Xu Jin, who was not good at speaking, spoke the most.

And his words were full of gratitude towards Nanzhi.
