Chapter 1511: Shall We Fry It?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The durians were bigger, so they took up a lot of space on the table. There were only a few on the shelf in the corner of the hall. The rest were still in the cellar.

Xue Bo, Xue Ganggang, and the others wanted to carry the durian themselves, but the durian skin was so prickly that Jiang Yue and Xue Yan worried that the children would accidentally prick their hands, so they quickly stopped them.

Xue Yan wouldn’t let Jiang Yue go get it, so he let Xue Bai and the others stay here to accompany Jiang Yue to continue basking in the sun while he went to get the durians for them.

Before he left, he even asked the rest of the family if they wanted to eat it. Xue Dafu and the former Emperor Hao couldn’t stand the taste either, so they shook their heads vigorously, indicating that they didn’t want to eat it. Xue Yifu, Xue Erfu, Xue Sanfu, Xue Sifu, and Xue Wufu all felt that the taste was alright, so they said that they wanted to eat it. Liu Guixia, Shao Youyue, Li Hehua, Yu Hongyan, Pei Fufu, and Princess Jin, who were busy in the kitchen, all liked it very much. Therefore, they all nodded, indicating that they wanted to eat it.

However, they couldn’t eat too many durians in a day, especially Jiang Yue. She was pregnant now, so it was not good if she had too much of this. Therefore, Xue Yan only took out four durians.

Xue Ganggang felt that Xue Dangdang was in a hurry to eat the durians, so she quickly brought a small square table over and placed it next to their aunt. Xue Yan then placed the four durians on it.

The four durians had already been cracked apart. With just a light break, they were all opened and the fruit inside could be taken out.

Xue Yan took out the fruit piece by piece and placed it on the plate that Xue Bai had brought from the kitchen. The children who liked to eat this couldn’t help but salivate. They each took a piece and ate it happily when they saw the creaminess of the fruit.

Xue Shi and the others were holding oranges in their arms and a banana in the other. They had originally planned to walk over, but when they saw this, they quickly moved far away.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Jiang Yue also took a piece and ate it. She also knew that she had to eat this in moderation, so she did not eat too much.

Both their fathers couldn’t stand the smell and also clearly expressed that they didn’t want to eat. Xue Yan didn’t ask them if they wanted a piece, he only sent a plate to the kitchen, as well as a plate to Yifu and the others.

When Xue Yan returned he also picked up a piece to eat.

He was like Prince Shou when it came to durians. He didn’t hate them, but he didn’t like them. He could eat them once in a while.

In the kitchen, Li Hehua was eating durian while frying something. Yu Hongyan was also eating durian and standing beside the stove to help.

As they ate, Yu Hongyan smiled. “This thing is almost done frying. Why don’t we fry the durian and see if it tastes better?”

“Sure,” Li Hehua had no objections.

Liu Guixia, Shao Youyue, Pei Fufu, and Princess Jin were also eating durians as they busied themselves with the New Year’s Eve dinner in the kitchen. When they heard this, they all smiled and nodded, huddling around to fry the durian. Coincidentally, there were still two pieces of durian left on the plate.

After scooping up the fried things in the pot, Li Hehua put the remaining two thick durian pieces into the pot to fry.

At first, nothing happened, but the more she fried it, the stronger the smell became.

Princess Jin hurriedly opened the window.

Just then, a gust of wind blew past and blew in the direction of the courtyard entrance.

Coincidentally, Xue Dagui came over with his hands behind his back and a grim smile on his face. Who would have thought that he would smell this the moment he stepped into the courtyard? Xue Dagui immediately said, “Sanfu, did you boil feces in your house? It’s so smelly!”

“Hahaha…” In the kitchen, Liu Guixia and the others were all bending over with laughter.

Xue Dafu was standing on the bench, cleaning the old couplets on both sides of the window. Now that he had cleaned them, he could directly paste the new couplets on the window in the afternoon. When he heard this, he tilted his head in confusion.
