When I got home, Qing Ning had just prepared some side dishes for the hot pot.

"Qing Ning, prepare two pots of soup base. I don't need to serve you here. You and Can Ren can eat together in the kitchen."

When Qing Ning saw Xie Ruiyuan, she walked forward and bowed, then brought all the side dishes to the living room and went to the kitchen.

Li Mengyue ignored Qingning and sat down to eat hot pot with Xie Ruiyuan.

Xie Ruiyuan sat down and was a little confused when he saw a table full of green lettuce.

"Ayue, when you say hot pot, do you mean eating these lettuces?"

But after he finished speaking, Xie Ruiyuan looked at the pot bubbling on the table and knew that he had guessed wrong.

"Ayue, should we put these lettuces in the pot and eat them?"

"Yes, this way of eating is very novel."

In fact, after Xie Ruiyuan guessed how to eat hot pot, he began to look forward to it.

Because based on his understanding of Li Mengyue, if the hot pot was not ready, Li Mengyue would not be so impatient.

But it’s no wonder that Li Mengyue was so eager to eat. He smelled the rich aroma of steam in the room and was deeply attracted by the tempting and warm smell of steam.

For someone who doesn't pay much attention to his appetite, it seems that all his taste buds have awakened at this moment. He wants to taste it and explore what kind of feast hot pot will bring to his taste buds.

Snowflakes were floating outside and the cold wind was blowing. Inside the house, there was steam rising from the pot on the table. In this atmosphere, people felt unusually warm.

Li Mengyue looked at the boiling red oil and clear soup in the double-flavored pot and explained to Xie Ruiyuan.

"This type of soup pot is called a 'Double-Sided Hot Pot' and is specifically designed for hot pot. Half the soup is filled with red oil, and the other half is filled with clear soup. If you can handle spicy food, you can put the vegetables in the red oil soup. If you want a lighter dish, you can just dip it in the clear soup."

After saying that, Li Mengyue picked up the chopsticks, picked out the vegetables she liked, and put them into the red oil soup.

Put a piece of mutton in the boiling hot soup and roll it a few times. The mutton slice will be cooked through and covered with soup, exuding fragrance. Pick it up, blow it gently, and put it into your mouth to chew.

The spicy yet fragrant, fresh but not greasy taste made Li Mengyue feel full of happiness.

Then, fresh and tender beef slices, plump shrimp balls and crispy pork belly were added. Every ingredient made Li Mengyue feel extremely satisfied.

In addition, there are various kinds of vegetables on the table, each of which is Li Mengyue's favorite.

Seeing Li Mengyue eating so happily, Xie Ruiyuan no longer hesitated, picked up the chopsticks, and started to eat each dish.

As he started eating, he immediately put the vegetables into the boiling red oil soup. The bright red and tempting soup was like torches lit by people on a cold winter day, and the enthusiasm and desire in their hearts reached a peak.

Although Xie Ruiyuan was in the royal family, he had basically spent all his time in the barracks since he went to the northern border and joined the military camp. He lived and ate with the soldiers, and was accustomed to eating simple meals as well as savoring the palace delicacies.

But it was his first time eating hotpot, so he was still looking forward to this novel delicacy.
