Chapter 7 A Genius Knows How to Cook_1

The golden eggs were paired with the green vegetables on the white plate. They were emitting light steam and looked so appetizing.

Wendy felt like she was dreaming.

Although Wendy thought that her daughter had always been smart because she often taught her how to recite poems. But she had never taught her how to cook.

Five years old. Her daughter was only five years old.

She actually knew how to cook! This was too unbelievable!

But that wasn't the end. Wendy watched her daughter scoop the vegetables, then boil the water, and heat the sandwich. All her actions seemed to be so coherent.

"Mom, give you one!"

Aria didn't know how much shock her actions had caused. She smiled and handed a steaming sandwich to her mother. Then, she split the remaining one into two halves and took half of it herself.

Aria took a bite and her expression changed slightly.

It had been a long time since she had eaten this kind of sandwich with corn flour in it. She was not used to eating it, but she still tried her best to maintain a natural expression.

Aria ate a few mouthfuls and realized that her mother was in a daze. She tilted her head and looked at her mother. "Mom, aren't you going to eat? Don't you like my cooking?" 

Although her culinary skills were not good, she could cook a normal home-cooked dish. Of course, a stir-fried vegetable with eggs did not need to be of a high standard.

Wendy came back to her senses after hearing her daughter's question. She looked at her daughter and said, "Aria, when did you learn this? I have never taught you!"

Her daughter was only five years old. Wendy would never abuse her daughter and ask her to learn how to cook, but now... Could it be that she was gifted?

"Ah, that... I... I've seen you do it... So I learned it..." Aria was a little stunned. She had forgotten that she was only five years old now. How could a five-year-old child cook? 

"You just watched me do it and you know it?" Wendy was still in disbelief.

Aria raised her head and looked at her mother. "That's right, Mom. Aren't I very smart?" There was a hint of anticipation in her eyes as if she was asking for praise.

Wendy thought for a moment. Her daughter might be very smart. She could recite poems very quickly. Perhaps she was also outstanding in other aspects.

Wendy smiled and said, "Yeah, Aria is too smart! As expected of my daughter!" 

Wendy picked up a piece of food. "Hmm, it tastes pretty good too."

Aria smiled happily.

"However, Aria, you don't have to cook in the future. You're still young, so you don't have to do this!" Although Wendy was tired, she did not want her daughter to suffer as well. A five-year-old child should not be doing housework.

However, Aria did not think so. She was reborn because of God's grace. She could not continue to live like before, right? Her mother was already very tired. She had to help her do what she could.

"Mom, you saw it. I know how to do it. Let me cook in the future. I want to help you!" Aria quickly put on a pitiful look, hoping that her mother would not stop her from cooking meals.

Aria took advantage of her young age and began to pester her mother.

Wendy had no choice but to agree, "How about this? In the future, you can help me wash the vegetables and dishes. But you can't use the kitchen knife!"

The most difficult part of the dish was to beat the eggs, but it was still alright. However, even if her daughter was smart and learned how to cook from her, Wendy couldn't let her daughter use the kitchen knife to cut the vegetables. It would be bad if she accidentally cut her hand.

Aria nodded. "Okay, I understand. I'll help Mom in the future!"

That's true. No mother would let her five-year-old daughter cook, so it was already not bad to be able to help. Aria didn't pester anymore. In the future, she would slowly take it step by step.

As they were eating, Mrs. Lee came over.

"Wendy, I've brought you some food. It's enough for you and Aria. Don't cook today!" Mrs. Lee shouted as soon as she came in.

There was also a large yellow porcelain bowl in her hand. There were some stewed vegetables noodles, and a few pieces of meat in it. It smelled very fragrant.

"Thank you, Mrs. Lee." Wendy quickly stood up and said, "Don't cook for me all the time in the future. It's too troublesome. I even..."

"What trouble? My family has a large population and I've always cooked a lot." Mrs. Lee said with a smile, but she was a little surprised when she saw the dishes on the small table. "You've already cooked?"

Wendy smiled and said, "I didn't cook it today!"

"You didn't do it? Then who made it?" Mrs. Lee placed the porcelain bowl on the table.

"Mrs. Lee, I made this dish!" Aria quickly said, "Mrs. Lee, try it. It tastes so well!"

Mrs. Lee was stunned when she heard Aria's words. Then, she looked at Wendy.

"Mrs. Lee, it's made by Aria. You could try it too." Wendy couldn't help but want to show off. Her daughter was amazing.

Mrs. Lee was shocked. A child who was not much higher than a stove knew how to cook.

Mrs. Lee took a bite and her eyes lit up. "The taste is not bad. Is this really made by Aria?"

She found it unbelievable that a five-year-old child could cook. And it was neither salty nor bland? Or it was Wendy who made the sauce. Then...

"It's really made by Aria." Wendy nodded and said, "I didn't help at all. I was shocked. Aria said that she learned it by watching me cook!"

Mrs. Lee pulled Aria over and said with a smile, "Aria is really amazing! She already knew how to cook at such a young age! She would definitely be the best girl in the future!"

Aria also giggled when she heard Mrs. Lee's words.

Although she might not be the best in the future, at least she hoped that she would have no regrets in this life.

After that, Mrs. Lee stayed for a while and poured the dishes from the porcelain bowl into their bowl. Then, she went back with a smile. She had to go back and talk to her two daughters. A five-year-old child could cook. This time, she had to teach her two daughters how to cook!

It was too embarrassing to lose to a five-year-old child!
