“Does it taste that bad?” Ye Muyu was a little curious. Although many people were not used to eating century eggs, she was still quite used to it.

Ye Muyu could not help but feel curious. She reached out her chopsticks to pick up some.

Madam Hu was trembling as she looked at Ziluo and Ling ‘er’s reactions. When she saw Ye Muyu’s actions, she quickly said, “Ah, Madam, I’ll try it. Don’t.”

As she spoke, the bowl of century egg in front of Ye Muyu disappeared.

“Hey, wait, I’m just trying. If it doesn’t taste good, I won’t eat it.” Ye Muyu’s curiosity was piqued by the three of them, and she could not wait to taste it himself.

Madam Hu had also tasted a piece, but her face was also twitching.

Seeing that Ye Muyu was still not giving up, she almost cried. “Madam, it’s really bad. Don’t try it.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay. I’ll spit it out if it doesn’t taste good.” Ye Muyu quickly took the century egg back.

Madam Hu could not stop her, and Ziluo and Xiang Ling’er did not dare to shout at her or beg her, so they could only look at her with tears in their eyes.

Ye Muyu suddenly smiled and changed to another pair of chopsticks. She picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.

The first bite was salty. With the seasoning, the feeling was not obvious after that. Then, the special taste of the century egg spread in her mouth.

“It’s not a failure.” Ye Muyu swallowed it and drank some tea. “But it doesn’t taste the best. Let’s make some more.”

Now that there were many duck eggs at home, she had the idea to experiment and strive to make the best century eggs.

“Madam, are you sure it’s really delicious?” Madam Hu’s expression was somewhat difficult to describe in words.

Ziluo also asked, “Mother, this… It’s very exciting, but it’s not very delicious.”

Xiang Ling’er savored it carefully and said, “I think it’s quite delicious now. But there’s indeed a stimulating taste in my mouth. It’s very strange.”

“Do you want to try it again?” Ye Muyu asked with a smile.

Xiang Ling’er nodded instantly and picked up another piece with her chopsticks. “It’s so strange. At first, it was a little stimulating and uncomfortable, but it tasted good. I wanted to taste it carefully, but there’s nothing left.”

“It’s okay. Just eat a few more pieces.” Ye Muyu recommended while drinking tea.

Xiang Ling’er was a straightforward person. She immediately nodded and continued to eat three to four pieces before her eyes lit up. “Sister-in-law, it’s delicious. Although there’s still a stimulating taste, it’s gone when it reaches the egg yolk.”

“Ling’er’s appreciation level is not bad.” Ye Muyu was very happy. Finally, someone could understand her thoughts.

As for the stimulating taste, it was just that the taste was too strong. Next time, she would make less so that the taste would be much more comfortable.

“We’ll make century egg and lean meat porridge tomorrow,” Ye Muyu suggested.

Madam Hu and Chu Ziluo were in disbelief.

“It’s very delicious.” Ye Muyu was not angry. She smiled.

Ziluo glanced at her mother and whispered, “Mother, don’t make too much. I’m afraid it’ll be a waste if I can’t eat it.”

“Cousin-in-law, I think everything you cook is delicious.”

When Ziluo heard this, she was a little hesitant. It seemed that her mother’s cooking was very delicious. Should she have some expectations?

“Ling’er, I’ll give you more tomorrow morning.” Ye Muyu smiled.

“Let’s go rinse our mouths.”

After eating the century eggs, they continued to discuss the structure of the house. It was getting late.

Chu Heng came back quite late at night. Ye Muyu sent the two children back to their room to rest.

When she saw the man approaching from the darkness, she stopped in her tracks and turned around to walk toward the courtyard door.
