Little Suzaku knew too much about Xiaoju. When it saw Xiaoju's expression, it knew what had happened - Lu Zhoutang woke up.
But Yu Lili didn't know that she was not prepared at all and was broken free by Lu Zhoutang, who ran away as if his butt was on fire.
Fish carp:?
Little Suzaku was also a little surprised - mainly surprised that Lu Zhoutang would wake up at this time.
Little Suzaku had recorded Lu Zhoutang's physical condition before. Generally speaking, he would wake up temporarily after eating the Ghost Shadow Vine, perhaps because he had enough energy.
In the following time, he was awake for longer and longer periods of time, but generally he had to rely on some external force.
It used to be the Ghost Shadow Vine, but now is Yu Lili’s massage also considered stimulating?
However, the energy around her just now was indeed quite dense. If Lu Zhoutang could wake up because of this concentration of energy, then does that mean that he will soon recover?
Little Suzaku was still very surprised. It looked at Yulili who had stood up and said quickly, "I'll go find him."
"...That's fine." Yu Lili was still not sure what had happened, but it seemed like Xiaoju was avoiding her just now?
Then she won’t chase him out.
——
Lu Zhoutang calmed down only after running out of the cave. He felt that the hair on his body was still exploding. If the hair was not thick enough, he even felt that his whole body would be seen by others because of his red appearance.
Although he felt ashamed to be rubbed by Yu Lili in the past, it was only seen in his memory after all, and it was just a social death in his memory.
But today he woke up in Yu Lili's arms!
Lu Zhoutang felt that if there was a crack in the ground in front of him, he would definitely drill in without hesitation and drill to the bottom.
The kind that hides inside and can't come out.
"Are you Yu Lili's cat?" Chu Ming looked at Xiao Ju who was in a daze after rushing out, and then looked at Yu Lili who had not followed him out yet. He was still wondering whether to pick up the cat and send it in, or to drive it in?
Fortunately, the little Suzaku came out at this time. It was relieved to see that Lu Zhoutang didn't run too far.
When it saw the look Chu Ming gave Lu Zhoutang, it immediately said, "Hello, Mr. Chu, this is Lili's cat. It's not dangerous, so please don't do anything to it."
"I just wanted to send it back to the cave entrance." Chu Ming explained.
The little Suzaku nodded and ran to Lu Zhoutang. Lu Zhoutang tilted his head to look at it, then looked at Chu Ming. He felt that Chu Ming looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Is this a new teammate?
Not seeing Yu Lili, Lu Zhoutang slowly calmed down and walked towards the nearby forest.
Little Suzaku also hurried to follow.
When they were in a quiet place, away from Chu Ming, Little Suzaku said to Lu Zhoutang, "You suddenly ran out just now and scared Lili."
Lu Zhoutang: “…”
Little Suzaku didn't need his answer. It was more concerned about something else: "You can recover now without eating the Ghost Shadow Vine. Are you almost well?"
Lu Zhoutang shook his head.
He moved closer to Little Suzaku and explained to it, "It must be Yulili who did something just now, so I'm recovering now. At this rate, I should be able to recover in about a month."
Little Suzaku nodded to show that he understood.
Lu Zhoutang looked down at his claws and fell into deep thought.
He had a subtle feeling that he was about to recover his body.
so……
"Get ready, we might be leaving soon."
——
When Xiaoju returned to the cave, it was back to normal.
In response, the little Suzaku explained: "It seemed to have heard some strange noises before and had been looking for something outside."
"Strange sound?" Yu Lili was bewildered. She hadn't heard any strange sound at all. However, she was more concerned about another thing: "Did it find it?"
"Not found." Little Suzaku shook his head.
Yu Lili lowered his head and asked Xiao Ju: "What sound did you hear? What are you looking for? I can help you."
Xiaoju tilted his head: "Meow?"
Facing Xiaoju's confused and innocent eyes, Yu Lili knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she seemed to be thinking about something.
Xiaoju rubbed his head against Yulili. Although he didn't know why, he always felt reluctant to leave.
It seems like it will leave Yulilui soon?
Xiaoju doesn't quite understand where this idea came from, but he just wants to be more attached to Yulili.
In response, Yu Lili said: "You can stick to it a little more! It's so fun to pet cats!"
When Rong Jing came back in the evening, Yu Lili was sorting out the subspace. It was during this rummaging that she discovered something she had found but had never shown to Rong Jing - the little red fruit.
She handed it to Rong Jing to identify. Rong Jing pinched it open and smelled it, her eyes lit up: "This is a chili pepper!"
"Ah? Is it chili?" Yu Lili was a little disappointed.
She knew very well that tomatoes were a kind of fruit, while peppers were just a condiment. They had a lot of condiments now, so they should not be short of this one. But if it was a fruit, the sour and sweet tomatoes would definitely be delicious!
So she actually prefers tomatoes.
Her thoughts were clearly written on her face. Rong Jing smiled at her and said, "How many chilies did you bring back? If possible, we can make hot pot today."
"Hot pot?" Yu Lili asked in confusion.
"Yes, it's delicious." Rong Jing affirmed.
Rong Jing praised the food as delicious, and Yu Lili also became interested in it.
Because she didn't know whether Yu Lili could eat spicy food, and Chu Ming was injured outside, Rong Jing finally cooked two soup bases and made a shabu-shabu pot.
Yu Lili had found a lot of things before, many of which were vegetables, so this time they could be eaten boiled.
There are also various kinds of meat, such as lamb, rabbit, snake, pork, and potatoes and sweet potatoes can also be sliced and eaten boiled.
Finally, it was the staple food, which was the noodles made by Rong Jing and Chu Ming. This time, Yu Lili was not even asked to help.
Just kidding, Chu Ming is now worried about Yu Lili's help. Besides, he can do the preparatory work, so Yu Lili should just take a good rest.
He, who is eating for free, should be more self-disciplined.
Hotpot is fun only when there are many people eating it. Yu Lili, Rong Jing and Chu Ming will definitely eat it. Ms. You, Professor Qi, Professor Qiu and Wang Yun also came to join the table. As for the other three young people, they were finally pulled over to sit together.
There were ten people in total, sitting around a big pot, with extra-long chopsticks and slotted spoons at hand.
There were two soup bases: one was a light chicken broth, the other a spicy bone broth. Considering that the others probably hadn't eaten much spicy food, Rong Jing warned them before they started, "I added chili peppers to the red soup, so it's going to be very spicy. If you can't handle spicy food, try the clear soup base."
I have to say that the chili peppers of this era are really spicy. Rong Jing hasn't eaten spicy food for a long time, and when she first tried it, she even felt the spiciness.
While waiting for the two pots to boil, Rong Jing roughly explained how long it would take to boil those things.
Anyway, she didn't prepare many kinds of things, and when the pot boiled, no one would take care of anyone else.
Oh, no, there are still some.
Rong Jing will pay attention to Yu Lili, and Yu Lili will take care of Ms. You.
But she was soon disliked by Ms. You: "Just eat your own food, I don't need you to care about me."
Yu Lili looked at Ms. You, who was more agile with her chopsticks than her, and silently retracted her chopsticks and took care of herself.
Well, I feed Xiaoju some occasionally.
Because she didn't know what the red soup would taste like, Yu Lili was afraid to eat it at first. She first boiled a lot of food in the clear soup, and while eating, she fed Xiaoju, but her eyes were looking at Rong Jing.
To be precise, it was Rong Jing's mouth that had turned red from the spiciness and her forehead that was sweating.
Chili peppers are not common in this era, but they are not extinct.
After all, it exists as a condiment. When the cooking industry is relatively unpopular, it is certainly impossible for it to become popular.
Therefore, at the beginning, Rong Jing was the only one who put her chopsticks into the red soup.
But the first time Rong Jing touched the red soup with her chopsticks, her lips and face turned red.
The food was so spicy that she gasped, but she kept eating the red soup.
Is it really that delicious?
Chu Ming was the first to pick up his chopsticks, but just as he did so, he heard Rong Jing remind him, "Your injury hasn't healed yet, so eat less spicy food."
"Yeah, okay." Chu Ming nodded.
Then he ate a piece of lamb slice boiled in red soup, and his face turned red just like Rong Jing's.
He took a breath and found a pair of eyes staring at him: "How is it?"
"My mouth hurts a little bit." Chu Ming said honestly, "But after eating, I still feel like eating."
Is it so magical?
Yu Lili became even more curious. She couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat and put it in.
When it was cooked, she took it out and took a bite.
How to say it.
The inside of my mouth suddenly hurt, but the pain was still within the tolerable range, and along with the pain came a fragrance.
Meat in clear soup is also delicious, but this kind of meat in red soup...how should I put it, it just tastes more exciting?
Yu Lili ate the piece of meat and drank several mouthfuls of water. Her mouth and face turned red. Her skin was originally very white, so the redness was particularly obvious.
She was shocked by the spiciness at first. After eating the first piece, she took several mouthfuls of the meat cooked in clear soup to suppress the spiciness. But as she ate more, she began to crave the red soup again.
Although it was a bit painful at first, the red soup seemed to taste... not bad?
Or try again?
Yu Lili quietly put another piece of blanched vegetable into the red soup, then took a sip, and her face, which had just calmed down a little, turned red again.
Wang Yun and Ms. You who were watching: "..."
Both of them became curious about the red soup base and tried to blanch something in it to eat.
To be honest, the spicy taste of the red soup base is a bit choking and scary at first, but once you accept it, it feels particularly delicious.
So, except for Professor Qi and a young man who really couldn't eat spicy food, and the injured Chu Ming, most of the people ate their food by boiling it in the red soup.
Oh, the things that Yulili boiled for Xiaoju were all in clear soup. After all, Xiaoju's tongue was sensitive. Yulili first washed the pork boiled in red soup with clear soup before feeding it to Xiaoju. Xiaoju still felt so spicy that he stuck out his tongue crazily after eating it, so Yulili took a pair of chopsticks and fed it the clear soup.
The hot pot meal was very lively. Most of the meat and vegetables prepared by Rong Jing were quickly eaten. Rong Jing wanted to prepare some more meat slices, but Chu Ming whispered, "Let me do it."
"You don't have to move. What's the point of a chef and a wounded soldier being busy? It's just cutting vegetables, which doesn't require any technical skills. Let them do it." Ms. You waved her hand.
'They' were the three silent young men. They had no objection and started slicing the meat that Rong Jing had taken out.
The three of them moved quickly. It was only seven or eight minutes later when they finished cutting a leg of lamb, two rabbits and a quarter of a pig. Rong Jing even took a look and found that the slices of meat were indeed cut very thinly and evenly.
"Your knife skills are quite good." Rong Jing sighed.
Ms. You chuckled: "So just eat it with confidence."
After a pause, she added, "Learn more from that little girl Lili. Look how delicious she eats."
The delicious fish carp: "?"
She looked up blankly and saw two more pieces of meat in the bowl.
——From Ms. You sitting on her left and Rong Jing sitting on her right respectively.
Both pieces of meat were boiled in the red soup. Yu Lili said obediently: "Thank you, teacher, and thank you, Sister Rong Jing."
Then she picked up some boiled meat and vegetables for the two of them and started eating again.
Rong Jing and Ms. You were both amused and helpless. They smiled at each other and continued eating.
The author has something to say:
good evening!
