Chapter 88 Unexpected



The abbot walked out of the council hall and thanked everyone on behalf of his disciples.

The clan chief was invited out by Li Jing, and the Li people who were finishing up stopped and gathered at the entrance of the council hall.

Everyone's faces were filled with joy as they savored the food they had never tasted before. Although the flavor was light, it had a natural salty and savory taste, making it a delicious treat unlike anything they had ever experienced before!

Jiang Xinyu kept grilling and tending the fire himself, while Zhu Le lovingly held up the skewers for him so he could take a bite whenever he wanted...

Seeing the satisfied smiles on everyone's faces, hearing their praise, and tasting the fruits of his labor, Jiang Xinyu felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.

Wen Shishi's mouth was covered in oil from eating, with a skewer in each hand. Her third brother, Song Chengxin, followed behind, worried that she might poke herself.

Although there were many people, meat is filling. After all the braised and barbecued food was divided up, each person could try a few skewers and was basically full.

The abbot and the land deity each received a sweet potato and a taro, which was the most food they had received in two days.

Most importantly, the food is hot.

Just a day ago, the Li people could never have imagined that they would be enjoying such a harmonious relationship with the Dayin people.

We eat together and work together.

The people of Dayin before us are not as cunning and treacherous as the rumors suggest. They are genuinely sincere in helping us repair our houses!

Two days ago, not only the Song family, but even Jiang Xinyu and his men could never have imagined that they would experience such a rich and eventful journey...

In just two days, they experienced two typhoons, encountered danger at sea, and were even captured on Limu Mountain...

Who would have thought that they were eating barbecue with the legendary Li people?

The atmosphere here was harmonious and joyful, while occasionally a few figures would appear in the distance.

Upon closer inspection, it vanished without a trace.

The fourth, fifth, and ninth brothers still haven't returned, which tells Song Chenghou that his prediction was correct...

Things aren't that simple.

After finishing the barbecue, Jiang Xinyu was reluctant to dismantle the brick rack, saying that they could continue barbecuing after another hunt.

He continued to ask Song Chengfeng for more seasoning powder. Seeing how busy he had been, Song Chengfeng made him two more packets, which he was to keep.

Braised dishes actually taste quite good, with a savory and fragrant flavor, but barbecue skewers are even more stimulating to the taste buds...

After finishing the barbecue skewers, everyone was still somewhat skeptical. Each person took a few bites, and their undisguised surprise led to the skewers being devoured in an instant.

Li Jing's men were extremely proud and prepared snake soup and eel in a competitive manner. Not to mention the Dayin people, even their own clansmen were too busy to eat, and in the end, most of it was left uneaten.

Wen Shishi turned her head and inadvertently saw something. She pushed her third brother's arm with her oily little hands, "Take it away! Third brother, take it away!"

Song Chengxin chuckled, "Your third brother is useful now, isn't he?"

"Now you know how useful your third brother is?"

Although the processed snake and eel meat was no longer recognizable, Song Chengxin himself found it disgusting and dared not approach it.

The only solution was to ask Li Jing's men to help raise the container higher so that Shi Shi couldn't see it, and neither could they see it themselves...

Song Chenghou glanced at it and couldn't help but chuckle. In some ways, his third brother was the most naive among his brothers, and he didn't look much older than Shishi.

"Eighth brother, see what's left. Leave some for your fourth, fifth, and ninth brothers..."

Song Chenghou gave the instructions in a low voice.

When it was time to eat, the three of them were nowhere to be seen, so the other brothers naturally asked about it.

Song Chenghou casually mentioned that he had asked them to go down the mountain to help find medicinal herbs, and the Li people who were eating skewers nearby did not suspect anything.

Don't worry!

Before Song Chengxi could answer, Jiang Xinyu pointed to the container next to him, which was covered with a lid.

"Hearing what the eldest young master said, I specially saved some for the three young masters, all of them raw..."

"They'll bake it fresh when they get back; it'll taste even better!"

Jiang Xinyu smiled, revealing two canine teeth.

Song Chenghou and Song Chengxi bowed to him gratefully.

Song Chengxi wiped his mouth and said, "Don't worry, brother, I left them some sweet potatoes and taro."

Young Master Jiang has considered things more carefully; that's very thoughtful!

Jiang Xinyu readily cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Xinyu, call me by my name from now on."

Song Chengxi readily replied, "Chengxi, from now on we'll address each other by our first names."

Song Chenghou looked up, gazing in a certain direction within the village, his brows furrowing slightly.
