Chapter 2: The Sisters

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the night market gradually dispersed. 

After the last satisfied customer left the stall, Ye Chui packed up the charcoal grill and the makeshift refrigerator for storing meat. He loaded these belongings onto his old tricycle and left the night market. After walking two blocks, Ye Chui arrived at a rundown residential area, parked the tricycle under an apartment building, and wearily returned to the rented small living space. 

It was a one-bedroom apartment of only about forty square meters. When he took out the key to open the door, Ye Chui deliberately slowed down, not wanting to wake up his two younger sisters. 

Speaking of these two younger sisters, they were not biologically related to Ye Chui. He met them in an orphanage, and when the orphanage went bankrupt, the two girls were left with no one to rely on. Ye Chui then took on the responsibility of raising them. 

The older of the two sisters is already 16 years old. Her name is An Jing, and she is a high school student. She is a sensible and quiet girl, just as her name suggests. The younger one is only 7 years old this year, and she is just in the second grade of elementary school. Her name is Wang Shiyu, and she is a lively and mischievous child. Of course, even children who grow up in such an environment are more or less sensible. 

Ye Chui was not a saint, and after his rebirth, these two sisters were nothing more than a chance encounter for him. He had no strong attachment to them and could easily leave them behind and go on his own. However, whenever such thoughts crossed his mind, a strong sense of reluctance would arise, as if the emotions of the original Ye Chui were still lingering. Coupled with the fact that the two sisters were genuinely adorable and sensible, after spending a few days with them, Ye Chui genuinely began to care for them. 

Having two cute sisters in this second chance at life wasn't a bad thing. 

Returning home at this moment, Ye Chui slowed down his steps, not wanting to wake up his two sisters. However, when he entered the room and quietly turned on the lights, he saw An Jing lying on the living room sofa with satisfaction, holding a textbook by her side. Evidently, she had fallen asleep while waiting for Ye Chui to return. 

This one-bedroom apartment was primarily for the two sisters to live in, and Ye Chui usually slept on the sofa in the living room. 

The weather was a bit stuffy, and An Jing was only wearing a white T-shirt. She had the appearance of a budding beauty, with a delicate and cute face. The girl's figure had developed quite good, and her lying posture on the sofa was quite alluring, causing Ye Chui to be momentarily distracted. He quickly shook his head vigorously, feeling a bit embarrassed. Dealing with Wang Shiyu, the little troublemaker, was easier, but An Jing's increasingly appealing appearance often made Ye Chui feel a bit out of control... It was indeed a bit troublesome. 

"Ah, brother, you're back!" Hearing the sound of Ye Chui closing the door, An Jing opened her eyes with joy, climbed up from the sofa with a cute rub of her still-sleepy eyes, and approached Ye Chui. "Brother, you've been busy all night and must be tired, right? I've heated water, let me help you wash your feet." 

"I can do it myself..." Ye Chui hastily said. He felt a bit awkward letting his sister help him wash his feet. Seeing An Jing bring a foot washing basin and pour hot water into it, he quickly took the basin from her. "You have to get up early for school tomorrow. Go to sleep quickly." 

However, An Jing insisted and didn't give in. Only after Ye Chui pretended to be a little angry did she finally return to the bedroom. 

After washing his feet and freshening up a bit, Ye Chui lay down on the sofa. Looking at the faint moonlight streaming in from the window, he found himself restless and unable to sleep for a while. 

He thought about the experiences of the past half-month since his rebirth. Now he was completely familiar with everything in this world. Besides taking care of his two sisters, he had set clear goals for his life. The lamb skewer stall was just the first step; he wanted to accumulate funds and eventually open his own restaurant, step by step regaining the pinnacle of being a chef. 

Of course, there was also the extravagant and delightful Manchu Han Imperial Feast. He wanted to make this luxurious feast reappear in this world! 

In a daze, Ye Chui seemed to be back in the scene of the Manchu Han Imperial Feast he hosted half a month ago. Three hundred and twenty-eight colorful dishes were successively presented. The guests who had the privilege to participate in the feast, whether dignified and solemn political figures or elegant and graceful female celebrities, were completely stripped of their disguises by this feast, revealing the most primitive instincts of humanity. 

Two celebrities even almost fought over a dish... 

Upon waking up, as soon as Ye Chui opened his eyes, he saw a pair of pitch-black big eyes staring at him curiously. That little face had a playful expression, pursing her lips into a gentle smile. With an innocent tone, she greeted him, "Brother, you're awake." 

"You..." This girl was naturally the other sister, Wang Shiyu. In his previous life, Ye Chui had no siblings. Opening his eyes to see Wang Shiyu's adorable face felt quite familiar. Sitting up from the sofa, he rubbed his face and then turned to ask Wang Shiyu, "What time is it?" 

"It's already 7:30." Wang Shiyu blinked and sat down beside Ye Chui. "Brother, Shiyu didn't oversleep today. Am I good or not?" 

"Okay, Shiyu is very good." Ye Chui smiled and indulgently rubbed the little girl's head. 

Suddenly, An Jing peeked out from the kitchen, and seeing Ye Chui talking with Wang Shiyu, she angrily shouted, "Shiyu, didn't I tell you earlier? Brother is tired from working at night. I told you not to disturb him. Why don't you listen?" 

"I didn't disturb Brother; he woke up by himself." Wang Shiyu said with an innocent and adorable expression, turning to Ye Chui, "Isn't that right, Brother?" 

"Yeah, that's right. I woke up by myself." Ye Chui smiled and said. Seeing the scarf draped over An Jing, he knew she was preparing breakfast. Originally, Ye Chui used to cook breakfast, but An Jing was considerate. She wanted Ye Chui to sleep a little longer before taking over herself. She even specifically instructed Wang Shiyu not to wake him up. Where could one find such a sensible sister? 

However, since Ye Chui had already woken up, he couldn't let his sister prepare breakfast. He washed his face and walked into the kitchen. "I'll cook; you go help Shiyu comb her hair. Otherwise, it might be too late." 

An Jing nodded and went to help Wang Shiyu comb her hair. After An Jing had braided Wang Shiyu's hair into two neat pigtails, Ye Chui had already made a simple breakfast. It consisted of millet porridge, homemade pickled vegetables, and steamed buns, tasting especially sweet when eaten together. 

While eating, Wang Shiyu suddenly remembered something and enthusiastically told Ye Chui, "Brother, we had exams at school yesterday. I scored a hundred points." 

"Really?" Ye Chui's face lit up upon hearing this. He smiled and said, "Okay, then, I'll make a feast for lunch today. How about that?" 

"Great!" Wang Shiyu clapped her hands in joy. Her favorite thing was the feasts that her brother made. An Jing also showed a look of anticipation. However, she also found it a bit strange and said, "Brother, I've noticed you've changed a lot recently. It seems like suddenly the food you cook has become much more delicious." 

Hearing this, Ye Chui was slightly stunned. He quickly explained, "Maybe it's because I've been studying these things recently. In the future, I plan to open my own restaurant." 

"In that case, Shiyu and I will definitely help you." An Jing said with a smile. She had some doubts about the recent changes in Ye Chui, but there wasn't much suspicion. After all, he was still her brother and couldn't change that. 

Seeing that An Jing didn't have any suspicions, Ye Chui relaxed. He didn't plan to let anyone know about the fact that he had transmigrated and been reborn. 

After finishing the usual breakfast, Ye Chui sent his two sisters out. Wang Shiyu remembered the promised feast for lunch and confirmed it with Ye Chui before happily bouncing away. The school the two sisters attended was a combination of elementary, middle, and high school, not far from here, so Ye Chui didn't have to worry about transportation. 

After sending the two off, Ye Chui cleaned the room quickly and then pushed his small tricycle to the nearby vegetable market. He had to start preparing for the evening stall's ingredients. 

Oh, and there's the promised feast for Wang Shiyu. 

But what kind of feast should he prepare?
