Qiu Dayu had just finished calling out "Second Brother" when he saw Jiang Liu and her servant. He was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth and his mind was full of questions.
His smiling face immediately turned serious, and he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Jiang Liu, "Soup..."
"On vacation?" Before the lady could utter the word, Qiu Dafu interrupted her.
"I'm off tomorrow, but Yuanyuan is on leave today, so I'll take her back."
After Qiu Dayu finished speaking, he nodded to Jiang Liu and went to his second brother's room.
He was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
Inside the kitchen, Jiang Liu glanced at the courtyard gate every now and then, afraid that the black dog would pounce on her again.
She had been afraid of that black dog before.
Qiu Dafu lectured Gu Xiaoran quite a bit for this.
Hearing the dog bark just now made Jiang Liu tense again.
Now, Jiang Liu has no shoes; the ones she's wearing are Qiu Yan's.
At noon, after Qiu Yan and the other two returned from selling meat, Qiu Dayu ate lunch at home and then went to Baiyang again.
Most of the villagers are poor, and it is difficult to sell venison.
Therefore, before leaving, Qiu Dayu took some of the venison to Xingyuelou, and kept the rest for the New Year.
Within a morning, news of the Li family selling meat spread throughout many nearby villages.
In the afternoon, a steady stream of pedestrians came to buy the meat, and by evening it was sold out completely.
Even after the meat sold out, many people from the Li family still came to buy more meat.
Fortunately, there were Ling Qi and Ling Ba. When there were enough people wanting them, they would go and kill them on the spot.
The following day was New Year's Eve.
Early this morning, Jiang Liu discussed the trip to Baiyang with Qiu Yan.
Jiang Liu's original intention was to have Qiu Yan bring her family to Baiyang to choose some clothes she liked, as a token of her goodwill.
Also, it's almost Chinese New Year, and she needs to go back to sort out the accounts.
Qiu Yan had already prepared new clothes for the children for the New Year. However, since Sister Jiang was so sincere in giving her the clothes, she thought it would be a good thing to reciprocate, so she did not refuse.
However, she was too busy today to go, so she asked her second uncle and three children to go to Baiyang with Jiang Liu.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoran refused to go to Baiyang no matter what.
He loves this small village near the mountains because he can have a lot of fun here.
In the end, Jiang Liu and Qiu Dafu took Qiu Xu and Qiu Ling'er to Baiyang.
After the two left, Gu Qian went to the Li family first, hoping to see if there was anything he could do to help.
As soon as he entered the Li family's courtyard, he smelled a deep-fried aroma.
It's the long-lost flavor of the New Year.
Although the Li family has few members, it is not deserted.
Inside the Ye family's house, two children were being breastfed.
As Gu Qian watched his master's wife's retreating figure, he suddenly thought of his junior sister.
Looking at his master's busy figure in the kitchen, he thought of his master's heroic scene on the battlefield.
The master of yesteryear and the master of today are completely different people.
Gu Qian felt a little depressed.
Unbeknownst to them, the surroundings became vast and magnificent, with images of clashing swords and galloping horses appearing before their eyes.
Gu Qian felt as if he had returned to the past, to the time when he fought alongside his master...
"Master."
Suddenly hearing a soft call, Li Zheng turned around and saw Gu Qian standing in the courtyard, stunned. "Master has just fried some meatballs. Come and try them. How do they taste?"
"Okay, sure." Gu Qian snapped out of his reverie and nodded.
He stepped into the kitchen, the rich aroma of meat filling his nostrils.
The oil in the wok on the stove was bubbling away, and crispy pork was being fried inside.
On the table, golden meatballs were scattered in a bowl.
Besides meatballs, there were also some fish pieces and lotus root that were to be fried, which were placed on the table.
Gu Qian reached out and picked up a meatball, took a small bite, then picked up a piece of crispy pork and put it in his mouth.
It has a rich aroma and tastes delicious.
How come he never noticed before that his master was such a good cook?
