"Brother Wang, we have a few more people for lunch today. Dongjia's wife has asked you to prepare a few extra dishes."
"Sure thing, no problem!" Wang Dachuan responded cheerfully, happy to have more people enjoying his cooking, satisfying as it was to see everyone relishing his meals and praising them. The feeling was deeply fulfilling. Besides, now that he didn't have to work at the tavern, cooking for just a few people at home hardly took any effort. With time on his hands, he enjoyed experimenting with various delicious dishes. The ingredients here were plentiful, and Dongjia's wife was generous and easygoing, not minding his experimenting. In fact, he had developed several new dishes. It was just a shame that the tavern was now closed; otherwise, they would surely have been a huge hit.
