Princess Kang and Madam Xue also wanted to join in the fun. They had been here for so long but had never been to Chunnan City, and wanted to go and take a look.
After the arrival of Prince Kang and Duke Chengen at the beginning of the year, the two of them followed Uncle Gu and Huo Junhao to build the city there, and they built their houses on the left and right sides of the Gu family.
There were still some things to arrange at home, which took another two days.
On the fifth day of the tenth month, the group set off for Chunnan City in a grand procession.
General Peng went along as well, and Grandma Xiao naturally followed. Grandma Xiao noticed that Empress Xue's pulse was much better than before. Given her current physical condition, it was very likely that she would get pregnant, so she had to keep an eye on her at all times.
She didn't know Lu Zheng's plans, but Lu Zheng had mentioned to her that if Empress Xue could have another son, it would be good for everyone, so Grandma Xiao was also trying her best.
After seeing the group off, Gu Xin and Gu Nian now only have Xie Zhiyi and Gu Yingxue to help them.
Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu also plan to return to the camp in the next couple of days.
The four of them agreed to go to Xue Qianyu's house for hot pot that evening, just the four of them.
In the afternoon, Xue Qianyu and Lu Zheng went to the vegetable market in Kuncheng to buy groceries.
Now Kuncheng also has a vegetable market, and fresh vegetables are delivered from Chunnan City every other day. The people of Kuncheng are no longer short of money and have the ability to buy, so the vegetable market was built.
These two grown men didn't haggle at all when they entered the market; they just bought whatever Niannian and Xinxin liked to eat.
They went to the stall in the Kingdom of Sand God to buy beef and mutton.
In a mere 45 minutes, they had filled a whole car with purchases.
When Gu Nian and Gu Xin finished their work and came over with the hot pot base, they went to the kitchen and took a look.
Gu Xin, who never cooks, was speechless: "Brother Yuanyuan, Brother Xue, aren't you going back to camp tomorrow? You bought so much food, can you two finish it all?"
Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu: "A lot?"
Gu Nian pursed her lips: "Even if you two have appetites several times bigger than others, you still can't finish this!"
Xue Qianyu moved the finger he had just touched: "Hmm, shall we eat more after we've had enough and digested our food?"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Yeah, the hot pot will heat up quickly anyway. Shall we finish eating, practice a set of sword techniques, and then continue?"
Gu Xin rolled her eyes at him: "It's not good to exercise after a full meal!"
Gu Nian glared at Xue Qianyu: "Sure enough, you can't expect men to buy groceries."
Gu Xin corrected her: "Sister, Dad is also a man, and he's very good at buying things."
Gu Nian: "Can those two compare to our father? Our father is the best man in the world."
Gu Xin: "That's right. Dad is the best man in the world."
Gu Nian started tidying up her things, while Gu Xin helped her.
Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu exchanged a glance: they were in the same boat, destined to live in their father-in-law's shadow for the rest of their lives.
Then he washed his hands and went to help.
"Xue Qianyu!" Soon, Gu Nian's cursing voice could be heard, "Do you own a salt field? You've put so much salt in, are you trying to choke me to death, or choke yourself to death?"
"Brother Yuanyuan!" Gu Xin's voice followed immediately, "This is white vinegar, not white wine. Are you trying to kill us with sourness? Also, just add a tiny bit!"
Then the two sisters said in unison, "Let's just chop the meat into minced meat instead of wasting these fish (chickens)."
Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu said, looking aggrieved, "So, why don't we use a cook?"
Lu Zheng was the most aggrieved. He was better than Xue Qianyu. At least he had lived in Sanchakou Village for a while and knew how to cook, although it might not be very good.
Gu Xin and Gu Nian glared at her, and the two obediently picked up their knives and began chopping the meat.
