Everyone in the courtyard turned to look at Li Bin.

“Wan Feng, my mom has been gone for a long time. She went to the south to pick tea leaves. What do you need from her?” Wan Feng said.

Hearing Wan Feng’s words, Li Bin’s face turned pale.

“Never mind, it’s okay. If there’s nothing, I’ll leave.” Li Bin waved his hand and turned to leave.

Wan Feng quickly grabbed Li Bin. Curiosity compelled him to seek clarity. “Hey, don’t just drop a hint and stop. What’s going on?”

Li Bin, already under considerable pressure, sighed upon hearing Wan Feng’s question. He quipped, “Today, county officials came to inspect our village. After the inspection, they’ll have lunch at the production team’s canteen. It wasn’t a big deal, except that this morning, the cook from the canteen, Master Li, suddenly fell ill and had to be taken to the clinic. I’m in a hurry to find a replacement!”

Wan Feng rolled his eyes and suggested, “Why don’t you just find someone who can cook? We have plenty of housewives in our village, right?”

Li Bin gave Wan Feng a sharp look. “If only it were that simple. Those women in our village hardly use oil or salt in their cooking. How could they serve the leaders with their culinary skills? Let alone find someone better than Master Li, we can’t settle for someone too inexperienced. Some of those leaders have been to our village before. If we serve them poor food this time, what do you think they will think?”

Wan Feng finally understood. “They’ll think we’re disrespecting them this time. They might even withhold future recognition and rewards. These leaders, I know them well, they’re more narrow-minded than a needle’s eye.”

Li Bin nodded in agreement. “That’s why I came looking for Auntie Sun. Before Auntie Sun married Uncle Wan, her family ran a restaurant. Her cooking skills are exceptional. There should be no problem with her cooking for the leaders.”

Li Bin’s expression became pained again. “But why did Auntie Sun leave? How can we handle this now? The squad leader tasked me with this, and if I can’t find a good cook, they’ll blame me.”

Hearing Li Bin’s words, the Wan brothers and Min Nan instantly turned their gaze to Ye Ling.

Li Bin was worrying about this when he noticed that no one was consoling him. He looked up and saw everyone’s gaze on Ye Ling. He was a bit puzzled.

However, he didn’t ponder over it much. He still had his problem to solve. Li Bin waved his hand. “I won’t talk about it anymore. I’ll leave now and see if there’s any other solution.”

As Li Bin was about to leave, Wan Feng pulled him back again. Wan Feng had a smug grin on his face. “I’ve helped you today. How are you going to thank me?”

“Helped me? With your cooking skills, you’d be poisoning the leaders if you cooked. I’m young, and I don’t want my future ruined because of you. Don’t waste my time, I’m busy.” Li Bin said irritably, trying to push Wan Feng away. Wan Feng slapped Li Bin’s shoulder. “Who said I’m going to cook? Other than my mom, we also have a professional chef at home. Look, haven’t you seen her? Quickly call out Sister Ling.”

Li Bin widened his eyes, looking at Ye Ling, who stood in the courtyard looking a bit uneasy.

The girl before him was petite, with fair skin. Two soft braids hung on either side of her shoulders. She seemed like a city girl.

She could cook? And she was a professional chef?

“Wan Feng, if you’re joking again, I’ll punch you. Do you believe me?” Li Bin said through gritted teeth.

Wan Feng opened his mouth to speak, but Min Nan pulled him aside.

Min Nan looked at Li Bin and said calmly, “Wan Feng is right. Ye Ling’s cooking skills are indeed impressive.”

Li Bin was stunned for two seconds before his eyes lit up suddenly.

While Wan Feng’s words were often like nonsense, Min Nan’s words were worth believing without hesitation.

That was the difference between people.

“Sister Ye Ling, you can cook? I couldn’t tell at all! I mean, you look like a refined young lady, hehe.” Li Bin put on a flattering smile. “Sister Ye Ling, no, my dear sister, I’m really in a tight spot today. Can you help me out?”

Facing Li Bin’s earnest request, Ye Ling couldn’t resist. She quickly said, “If I can help, I’ll do my best. But I’m not sure about the leader’s taste…”

Li Bin was so elated that he almost jumped up.. “Let me tell you! We can talk while we walk!”
