The officers and soldiers thought they were teasing them. How could the food not be cooked when there was such a good smell in the air? "Stop making a fuss, hurry up and put it out. Not only me, but they all smelled it and came over right away."

The officers and soldiers were a little anxious, thinking that when other people arrived, they might not be able to snatch it away.

Aunt Xu sighed, "Don't talk about you, I still want to eat."

As he said this, he lifted the lid of the pot and let him see for himself, "This is the meal that my wife made herself."

The officer withdrew his gaze in disappointment, and then his eyes lit up, "Then you were watching from the side, and you must have seen all the seasonings, why don't you try to make some~"

Hearing his words, the fat cook's eyes lit up, and then she looked at Aunt Xu, "Aunt, why don't you give it a try."

Of the two, Aunt Xu's craftsmanship is relatively better. When Madam was making it just now, she watched very carefully from the side and must have remembered a lot.

"This..."

Aunt Xu was a little hesitant. Although she said she remembered it almost exactly, when she was watching from the side, she felt that the lady was very particular about the heat when cooking. She was afraid that even if the seasoning was the same, the taste would definitely be different if the heat was a little different.

"Let's try it."

The fat cook was so horny about the smell that she kept encouraging her to cook.

Seeing that Aunt Xu was still hesitating, the officer thought of a solution. "If we don't do it now, it will be too late. Others will come over soon if they smell the smell. If they come over and find that it's not the smell they want, they won't agree."

As soon as the officer finished speaking, Aunt Xu made up her mind, "Okay, let's give it a try!"

The fat cook and the soldiers were all very happy. Aunt Xu wiped the sweat off her face. When he said that just now, she thought of that group of young men, who were full of youth and vigor. If they started to make trouble, she would be in trouble.

The fat cook happily prepared side dishes for Aunt Xu, while Aunt Xu carefully prepared the seasonings.

Xiaoguo, who was leaving, had no idea that the dishes she had casually made would create a problem for the people in the kitchen.

Xiaoguo brought the meal to the hall and placed it on the table. Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoyi also arrived at the hall safely.

Xiaoguo took the dishes one by one and placed them on the table: four dishes and a bowl of porridge.

Because Xiaoguo likes to cook and add a few more dishes, even though there are not many people, they still made a few more dishes.

Braised pork slices, pork liver with green peppers, three vegetarian dishes, and stir-fried choy sum are very simple home-cooked dishes.

Xiaoguo served porridge to the two children, and then broke off half a steamed bun for each of them. The steamed buns in the kitchen were so big that they almost covered Zhuangzhuang's face.

Xiaoguo filled a bowl of porridge and was about to drink it when she heard voices coming from outside.

After a while, Li Shouji's figure appeared in front of him.

"Haha, I told you, this smell is definitely not cooked in our kitchen."

Jiang Shanhe came in behind him, walked around him, and went straight to sit next to Xiaoguo.

Li Shouji was unwilling to be left behind, so he quickly sat down in his seat, then lowered his head and smelled the dishes on the table.

Because I didn't know they would come back suddenly, I didn't prepare any dishes for them.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Jiang Shanhe was about to answer Xiaoguo, but Li Shouji beat him to the punch, "No, I'm starving."

Jiang Shanhe closed his mouth and glanced at Li Shouji.

After hearing this, Xiaoguo immediately got up and prepared to get them dishes and chopsticks.

Jiang Shanhe held her back and said, "Let Li Shouji go."

Li Shouji just stretched out two fingers towards the braised pork slices and was about to pick them up when he heard Jiang Shanhe's words. He wailed, got up reluctantly and walked towards the kitchen.

Xiao Guo was about to call him and tell him to go by himself because she saw a hint of fatigue on both of their faces.

"Don't worry about him, just let him go."

Jiang Danhe pulled Xiaoguo down and asked her to sit down. He had been out for most of the day and hadn't had a sip of water, so his mouth was really dry.

Jiang Shanhe looked around, then picked up the bowl in front of Xiaoguo, tilted his head back and drank the porridge in it in one gulp.

"well..."

This is my bowl...

Xiaoguo looked at Jiang Shanhe who had already swallowed the food and swallowed the half-sentence in his mouth.

Jiang Shanhe put down the bowl and wiped his mouth, then calmly placed it back in front of Xiaoguo. He knew of course that this was her bowl.

Xiaoguo served himself another bowl of porridge, looking calm and thought, "Never mind, just drink it. It's not the first time anyway."

Jiang Shanhe secretly observed Xiaoguo's expression, and when he didn't notice any dislike or rejection of such negative emotions, he secretly raised the corners of his mouth.

Li Shouji was thinking about the food on the table, afraid that if he arrived a little late, there would be nothing left.

He hurried to the kitchen, not paying attention to the strange things around him. Instead, he quickly dodged the crowd and took two sets of bowls and chopsticks, then took two big steamed buns from the pot so that he could eat more later.

Just as I was about to turn around and go back, I suddenly felt hungry. I turned around and grabbed another steamed bun. I ate more and more~

When I got back to the hall, I immediately grabbed a big steamed bun and picked up a piece of fried pork with chopsticks. Sure enough, this was the taste as soon as I put it in my mouth.

"Wow, it's delicious. It's delicious."

Li Shouji ate the braised pork slices with one chopstick and pork liver with green peppers with the other, enjoying it very much.

Jiang Shanhe took the porridge handed to him by Xiaoguo, and then took the steamed bun and gobbled it down in a more polite manner.

I didn't have time to eat in the morning. I was busy all morning. When I got home, I smelled the delicious food. I was already in a state of panic.

“It’s delicious!”

As soon as Jiang Shanhe took a bite, his eyes lit up and he praised Xiaoguo. He was not exaggerating. This was the most delicious food Jiang Shanhe had ever tasted. One bite after another, Jiang Shanhe really hoped that time would pass quickly so that he could go back quickly and keep eating the food cooked by Xiaoguo.

"It's delicious. Eat more."

Xiaoguo watched them eating. Although it was a little exaggerated, she was also very happy.

Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel a little anxious at this moment. It seemed that more than half of the food that Xiaoguo had prepared for the two of them was gone.

So the two children looked at each other, nodded, and didn't bother to chew slowly, but picked up the dishes quickly.

Li Shouji dipped the last bit of soup into the steamed bun and ate it.

"Hic~"

Li Shouji swallowed the steamed bun and burped for a very long time.

Jiang Shanhe also put down his bowl and chopsticks. The food was indeed delicious and he ate very full.

Xiaoguo had finished eating a long time ago and sat aside watching them eat. He didn't know what Jiang Shanhe and Li Shouji had been doing and why they were so hungry.

Zhuangzhuang and Xiaoyi had finished eating long ago. After all, they were just two kids and couldn’t eat much without vomiting. So they just finished and left the hall to go out to play.

Someone came to collect the dishes. Xiaoguo was thinking about the boots, so after everyone put down their chopsticks, he went back to the house.

Jiang Shanhe and Li Shouji also ate a little and then went out to continue their work.

Xiaoguo returned to the house, lifted the quilt, revealing the unfinished shoes inside.

Before dinner, she came back and covered her boots with a quilt. She always felt a little embarrassed, so she felt more at ease after covering them up.

Xiaoguo took out the needle and thread and continued to sew the edge of the shoe. Soon she could sew the upper of the boot to the fur. The next step was to sew it together with the sole and the job would be done.

Since Jiang Shanhe knew that Zhuangzhuang loved reading, he bought a lot of books for him, including all kinds of books.

So whenever they had time, Zhuangzhuang would take Xiaoyi to stay in the study, which gave Xiaoguo enough space to make boots.
