"Hey, Mo Chen, are you back?" Li Ziheng called Zhou Mochen after reading the messages in the group.

"Well, yes, I came back last night." Zhou Mochen put down the work in his hands and said with a smile.

"Hey, you are not very interesting. You didn't even say a word when you came back." Li Ziheng said angrily.

"I was cooking at home yesterday, and I thought I would call you to play tonight. I met Lu Jiahui again in the morning and told me that there was a class reunion tomorrow, so I didn't tell you." Zhou Mochen explained.

"Okay then, I'll see you tomorrow night. I happen to have something to discuss with you," Li Ziheng replied.

"Okay. See you tomorrow!" Zhou Mochen hung up the phone after saying that.

Near noon, the family members all came back. Zhou Mochen was also ready to start cooking. Zhou Mofan was doing the cooking next to him, watching what Zhou Mochen was doing.

Zhou Mochen cooked the ingredients in separate pots, vegetables, fungi, and meat. Set them aside and drain the water. Separate a portion and cook it briefly with the stewed stock to let the soup flavor soak into the ingredients. Take it out and divide it into small bowls.

In a small bowl, add the prepared sesame paste, chopped green onions, minced garlic, and other seasonings.

For the spicy hot pot, you need to heat the pot and pour oil, sauté the onion, ginger and garlic, add the prepared base ingredients and bean paste and stir-fry evenly. Add meat, fungi, and vegetarian vegetables successively, stir-fry over high heat, and stir-fry until almost done.

Add pepper oil, which is the soul of the spicy hot pot. Sprinkle some cooked sesame seeds and finish it off. Sprinkle chopped green onion and it's done.

Zhou Mofan got it after watching it for a while. It’s simple and easy to operate.

"It smells so good! Brother, what are you making?" Zhou Mochen asked after seeing what he was bringing.

"Spicy hotpot and Malatang, let me try both of the items opened by my brother. There are oily spicy seeds here. If you like spicy food, add more." Zhou Mochen explained with a smile.

"Hmm, this is delicious! I like it!" Zhou Mowei took a bite and immediately fell in love with the taste.

"Well, it's good, it has a good start." Although Zhou Weimin felt that there were some flaws in it, he also thought it was a good business. Unfortunately, some of the ingredients were frozen food, so the taste would not be much better. Of course, this was just for Zhou Weimin

Let’s talk.

"Good time!" Zhou Zixi slurred her lips, pulled the meatballs in the bowl, and said inarticulately.

"Yeah!" Zhou Zixuan nodded in agreement and didn't bother to speak.

"Brother, can we do this business?" Zhou Mochen said with a smile.

"Yes, absolutely you can. And it's easy to operate. It only takes a few minutes to prepare one serving. Only the sauce, bone broth and other things need to be prepared in advance. Anyway, they are all the same ingredients." Zhou Mofan knew it when he saw his brother operating it.

Why did you choose two projects?

"Then it's settled. We'll find a decoration company this afternoon to design and decorate better. It's going to be a long-term operation anyway." Zhou Mochen said when he saw Zhou Mofan nodding.

"Okay, I'll look for you in the afternoon." After saying that, he started to eat.

"By the way, Xiaochen, take the quilts and other things from home to your sister-in-law's house in a while. Your aunt is back and has a place to live. The house over there is tidied up, but some quilts are missing." Zhou Weimin ate.

While eating, he thought of something and spoke.

"I know, Dad. What if they stay in a hotel?" Zhou Mochen thought for a while and said.

"It's okay, they won't stay in the hotel." Zhou Weimin glanced at Zhou Mochen like an old fox, he was still young.

"I know, dad!" Then he laughed, knowing what the old man meant. He could see through but not tell.

After dinner, she took Zhou Mowei and pulled the quilt to her sister-in-law's house.

"Brother Mo Chen!" He knocked on the door and it was Qiao Lulu who opened the door.

"You are Lulu, right?" Zhou Mochen said with a smile.

"Brother Mo Chen, how did you know?" Qiao Lulu asked with a smile.

"Your brother, I have a pair of fiery eyes." Zhou Mochen pointed at his own eyes and said.

"Lulu, let's ignore this arrogant man. Let's move the things in before we go." Zhou Mowei said from behind, pushing Zhou Mochen away.

"Giggle. I understand, Sister Weiwei, let me help you!" After saying that, she helped Zhou Mowei share the pressure.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law. Your favorite nephew is here." Zhou Mochen shouted as soon as he entered the yard.

"You brat, you're looking for a beating. You woke me up just after taking a nap." Zhou Qingya laughed and cursed after being woken up.

"Hey, my sister-in-law is not willing to hit me. Now, here is the quilt." Zhou Mochen handed over the quilt and said.

"I'm getting more and more naughty. It was better when I was a kid. I was so honest back then." Zhou Qingya joked.

"Sister-in-law, don't slander others' innocence. I'm very honest now, okay." Zhou Mochen said righteously.

"Pihou, hurry up and help. Your aunt will be back in the afternoon." Zhou Qingya said angrily.

"You'll be back in the afternoon? You told me earlier. Why don't you book a hotel to meet my aunt in the evening?" Zhou Mochen asked.

"It will be too late when you make the reservation. Your dad has already made the reservation." Zhou Qingya said as if you were not very smart.

"Tsk, tsk, this old man is so kind to his eldest sister. Sister, are you jealous?" Zhou Mochen said teasingly.

"You brat, you've shown your true colors in just three words." Zhou Qingya smiled and patted Zhou Mochen.

"Hehe, I'm just kidding." Zhou Mochen said with a smile.

"Haha, brother Mo Chen, if I record this and post it on your Weibo, I don't know how many people will be shocked." Qiao Nannan also went downstairs at this time. She laughed when she saw this scene.

"Little girl, don't act recklessly, it will damage the image of your brother and me." Zhou Mochen said exaggeratedly.

"Hey, little brother, maybe this will make fans like it more." Zhou Mowei also supported her.

A few people were chatting and laughing, and tidied up several rooms. Knowing that my aunt was coming back in the evening, after packing their things, they took Zhou Mowei back to get some wine.

At 5 o'clock, Karen Zhou called Zhou Mochen and said that she had arrived at the station. The two brothers each drove a car to pick up the aunt's family at the station.

"Xiao Chen, haha! I didn't expect you to come back so early. I thought I would come back before you." Hu Jianting laughed when he saw that it was Zhou Mochen and Zhou Mofan who came to pick them up.

"Uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time. I had a hard time on the road. I just came back yesterday. Hello, aunt, sister Yan, and Jinyang. Get in the car quickly. It's quite cold." Zhou Mochen said and went to carry the box.

Put it in the car.

Zhou Mofan also said hello to each other. Karen Zhou was about to shed tears when she saw her two nephews. Fortunately, Hu Bingyan coaxed her back.

After receiving their aunt's family, the two brothers rushed to their sister-in-law's house. When they arrived at their sister-in-law's house, they had a close relationship with each other. After helping everyone carry their luggage into the room, they took the two families to the reserved restaurant.

"Eldest sister, brother-in-law." In the restaurant, the two brothers saw their eldest sister coming and said hurriedly.

"For the people, build the country! Woohoo." Zhou Karenyou couldn't hold back her tears anymore. Hu Jianting was also quite embarrassed. He knew it was his fault. He would change it in the future, but he still refused to admit the mistakes he made before.

The brothers and sisters of the good Zhou family didn't mention anything either.

The juniors were also respectful, which made him feel relieved. Although it was true that he was a little more powerful, this was something he had developed in the past. He was stunned by Zhou Mochen's hammer.

"Okay, okay, aunt, please take a seat. If you feel homesick in the future, come back. Isn't it much more convenient to come back now than before?" Zhou Mochen couldn't stand such a scene and said to smooth things over.

"Haha, yes, yes, if you get homesick in the future, I will come back with you to see you. Xiaochen has already said it. Stop crying, I feel bad just looking at it." Hu Jianting made Zhou Karen laugh in just a few words.

"Fuck you, you are disrespectful to me." Zhou Qingyou burst into tears and smiled. She asked everyone to sit down.

"These are Bingyan and Jinyang, they have grown so big. Haha, they look so good." Liu Mei asked with a smile when she saw the two people sitting next to Zhou Mochen.

"Hello, Second Aunt! Second Aunt is still so young." They both said hello to Liu Mei respectively.

"These two kids are really good at talking." Liu Mei praised with a smile.

"Hey, Mom, you have changed. You used to always say that I can talk, but now you praise others, which makes you sad." Zhou Mochen's weird look made everyone laugh, and the sad atmosphere immediately changed.

"You brat, your sister-in-law is right, she has turned into a monkey now." Liu Mei rolled her eyes at her son.

"Grandpa and grandma!" "Grandpa and grandma!"

At this time a large group of children ran in.

"Hey, whose children are these?" Karen Zhou was very surprised when she saw six little babies running in.

"These two belong to my eldest brother, Zhou Zixi and Zhou Zixuan. Those two boys belong to my brother Mo Han, Zhou Ziming and Zhou Zize. The two youngest, Zhou Zirui and Zhou Zixin, are from my brother Mo Wen's family." Zhou Mochen pointed at

Many little guys said.

"Little guys, this is your aunt and uncle. Hurry up and call for help." Zhou Mochen said to the little guys.

"Auntie, hello, uncle!" several little ones shouted in unison, and then started giggling.

"Okay, okay!" Karen Zhou was extremely happy. Hu Jianting was also infected by several children, and suddenly felt that coming back was not a bad thing. It was lively, and the children were well-behaved and cute.

"Auntie, how are you, uncle?" Zhou Mohan and others hurriedly said hello.

"Okay, we have grown up, even the children are so big." Karen Zhou responded happily.

The family was chatting happily. The elders chatted with the elders, and the younger ones chatted with the younger ones. Several little ones were running around the house under the leadership of Zhou Zixi.

Soon all the dishes were served. Zhou Mochen also opened the wine early and filled it one by one.

"Today our Zhou family is reunited. Several juniors have also given birth to the next generation. We are gradually getting older. I don't ask for anything else. I just hope that you juniors can live in harmony.

We are blood relatives. Even if our elders are gone in the future, you must inherit the tradition of our Zhou family. From now on, if you are in trouble, you can lend a hand to anyone who can." Zhou Weimin looked at the juniors and said. He also said today.

Very happy.

"I know, uncle!"

"Got it, Dad!"

"I know, uncle!"
