Su Xueli blushed with laughter and called out to Yan Yan, "Where are you going? The barbecue is ready!"
Yan Yan called out, "I'm not staying with you two anymore. I'm getting goosebumps all over. I'm going to the kitchen to help Shao Jiang cook."
Su Xueli blushed and asked Wei Mingshen, "Do these two no longer want to separate?"
Wei Mingshen said, "It seems so."
The rabbit meat was roasted. Wei Mingshen, wearing gloves, tore the meat into a bowl. Su Xueli, watching the pieces of red meat, was drooling.
Wei Mingshen suddenly turned to look at her, smiled, and put a piece of meat into her mouth.
Just then, Yan Yan and Shao Jiang came over with two plates of stir-fried dishes. Shao Jiang exclaimed, "Look how much Lao Wei dotes on his wife! He's feeding her meat. I'm so envious!"
Su Xueli chewed on the fragrant meat and said, "I envy myself so much that I want someone to feed me too."
Shao Jiang chickened out, "Sister-in-law, are you bullying me?"
Su Xueli said, "Yes, I'll bully you."
Shao Jiang pleaded with Wei Mingshen for help: "Brother, my sister-in-law is bullying me."
"Let them bully us."
Yan Yan placed the dishes on the cleaned-up table and spoke up for Shao Jiang: "Hey, you two are so mean! I can't stand it anymore. I have to stand up for Shao Jiang."
Su Xueli provocatively said, "How do you want to fight? Go ahead and fight."
Yan Yan picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of rabbit meat from the bowl, and stuffed it into Shao Jiang's mouth. Then she said to Su Xueli, "How about that! Still bullying me?"
Su Xueli and Wei Mingshen were both stunned by this sudden action.
Shao Jiang, in particular, held that piece of meat in his mouth and didn't move.
Actually, Yan Yan had just acted impulsively, and when she realized what had happened, she was so frightened that she froze and didn't move.
Su Xueli quickly tried to mediate, "Wow, Shao Jiang, you have a backer now. My sisters are all on your side instead of mine. I'm angry!"
Yan Yan blushed bright red, and she tried her best to argue, "You're the one bullying me, I couldn't stand it!"
Shao Jiang could move his mouth again, and he chewed the meat with relish, saying, "That's right, that's right. If the road is uneven, someone will smooth it; if things are unfair, someone will take care of them. Yan Yan, thank you for standing up for me."
Su Xueli pouted, "Fine, fine, we're scared of you two, okay?"
Shao Jiang smiled smugly and said, "It's good that you're scared. I'm not fighting alone anymore, and I feel much more at ease."
Su Xueli suppressed her laughter, took a stool, and sat down around the dining table.
Wei Ming squinted and smiled slightly as he sat down next to Su Xueli.
Shao Jiang stir-fried some bean sprouts and some tofu and spinach. Su Xueli took out a few apples and oranges from her bag and put them on a plate. With vegetables, meat and fruit, it was a perfect meal.
Shao Jiang took out the wine, poured rice wine for the two of them, and then poured sorghum wine for himself and Wei Mingshen. He then sat down, raised his glass, and said, "Let's drink to our gathering today!"
All four of them took a big gulp of the drink and couldn't wait to pick up their chopsticks and start eating the meat.
Su Xueli, a reborn person, had to admit that the wild rabbits of this era were truly delicious, with tender and chewy meat, unlike in later generations where even wild game lacked "wildness" and tasted similar to farmed meat.
Su Xueli ate with great relish, and even raised her glass to invite everyone to join her, saying, "During the New Year, we should drink and eat heartily, that's what makes it fun!"
Her words were met with enthusiastic applause, and everyone ate, drank, and laughed heartily.
Suddenly, Su Xueli noticed Wei Mingshen staring at her. She rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
Wei Mingshen's peach blossom eyes were dazzling, "white with a hint of pink, like a ripe peach."
Su Xueli quickly covered her face and said shyly, "Don't look."
She knew that her face would turn red as soon as she drank alcohol.
Wei Mingshen was stunned by her beautiful appearance!
