Chapter 78 The Emperor's Rewards Make People Envy

She had originally just come to see Jiang Youning, and now that the general was here, she could take the opportunity to chat with him more.

After Nan Mianmian made up her mind, she walked in, waving her handkerchief, and saw two people sitting on the couch.

She stepped forward and greeted him: "General, Madam."

Xie Jing looked up and said, "Get up."

Nan Mianmian stood up straight, took a few steps forward, and glanced at Jiang Youning who was eating candied haws. "I heard that Madam fainted, so I came to check on her. I wonder how Madam is doing now?"

Jiang Youning had unfinished candied haws in her mouth. She replied vaguely: "I'm fine now. I'm sorry to have worried Madam Third."

Nan Mianmian looked at the way Jiang Youning ate and felt disgusted.

[Look at the way she eats. How does she look like a general's wife? She doesn't chew slowly or be polite. Does the general like it this way? 】

"We are all sisters, we should care about each other, I'm glad that Madam is okay."

Xie Jing raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Youning who was eating a candied haws one by one, with bulging cheeks. Compared with those rough men in the military camp, she was much more decent in eating.

He was curious about how that little cherry mouth could eat one by one.

The housekeeper hurried in and bowed to report: "General, Eunuch Li is here."

As soon as the words fell, Eunuch Li walked in with a smile, "General of the Cavalry, the emperor ordered me to bring some supplements to the general's wife."

Eunuch Li turned around and ordered the eunuchs, "Bring the supplements up."

Six eunuchs and eunuchs Xiao walked in with supplements.

Xie Jing glanced at the things in the tray, there were ginseng, bird's nest, donkey-hide gelatin and other supplements.

He retracted his gaze and looked at Eunuch Li, "Please, Eunuch Li, thank the emperor for his gift on my behalf."

Eunuch Li smiled, "General, rest assured, I will report to the emperor."

Xie Jing said, "Send Eunuch Li out."

"Yes, General." The housekeeper bowed and looked at Eunuch Li, "Eunuch Li, please."

Nan Mianmian looked at the supplements on the table. Looking at the ginseng, she knew that it was a rare ginseng in a hundred years. Looking at the bird's nest, it was also the best blood bird's nest. Only the queen in the palace was qualified to enjoy it.

These were all for Jiang Youning. She was just taking advantage of the general, otherwise how could the emperor notice her?

Jiang Youning ate candied haws and glanced at the supplements on the table. The emperor's reward was naturally good stuff, but she loved food more.

Her eyes fell on the ginseng, which was quite big and would be the best for her grandfather to replenish his body. It was a pity that she couldn't go back.

Xie Jing returned to the couch and lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Youning. Her face was much better than when she just came back.

"You take a rest first, I still have things to do."

Jiang Youning nodded obediently, "Yes, General, go and do it!"

Xie Jing retracted his gaze, turned around and walked out.

Nan Mianmian saw that Xie Jing was about to leave, and didn't stay any longer, "Madam, take a good rest, I won't disturb you."

After saying this, Nan Mianmian chased after him, swinging her handkerchief.

Jiang Youning continued to eat Tanghulu, waiting for Xie Jing to bring her game and sheep.

"General, wait for me." Nan Mianmian swung her handkerchief, almost holding up her skirt to chase him.

Xie Jing stopped at the sound, looked back, and saw Nan Mianmian rushing towards his arms. He instinctively turned sideways to avoid it.

Nan Mianmian saw that Xie Jing was going to rush towards his chest, and because Xie Jing avoided it, she had a close contact with the ground, and she cried out in pain.

She got up from the ground and looked at Xie Jing, her eyes full of grievance, "General, why didn't you catch me?"

Xie Jing said coldly, "Don't you watch when you walk?"

Nan Mianmian pouted, [You don't know how to be sympathetic to women. If I were pregnant, I would lose the baby if I fell.]

Xie Jing: "..." Don't worry, you don't have this chance.

Nan Mianmian rubbed her aching arm, thinking of how Jiang Youning enjoyed acting coquettishly towards Xie Jing. She said in a coquettish tone, "General, didn't I want to catch up with you as soon as possible? I didn't expect to fall. My arm is hurt."

Xie Jing got goosebumps when he heard it. Looking at Nan Mianmian's pretentious appearance, his brows furrowed. "If you are hurt, go find a doctor. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Xie Jing strode away.

Nan Mianmian stamped her feet in anger as she watched Xie Jing leave. "Is Xie Jing still a man?"

Xiuhe stepped forward to comfort her. "Girl, don't be angry. Maybe the general really has something urgent to deal with?"

Nan Mianmian pouted. "No matter how busy or urgent he is, he shouldn't be like this. I think he just doesn't understand romance."

Near dusk,

Jiang Youning saw Leng Xiao bring three wild rabbits, two roe deer, two deer, and three pheasants. The key is that these are all alive and can be eaten while being raised.

Leng Xiao lowered his eyebrows and nodded. "Madam, these are all sent by the master."

After receiving the order, Leng Xiao took the token and rode a fast horse to the hunting enclosure, because there were many wild game there and it was easy to catch.

Jiang Youning turned his eyes away from the game and looked at Leng Xiao. He knew without asking that all the game was caught by Leng Xiao.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Leng Xiao said, "Thank you for your hard work. This is what I should do. The general asked me to ask my wife what kind of roasted whole lamb she wants and when she wants it."

Jiang Youning was craving for the roasted whole lamb. If she didn't eat it today, she would not be able to sleep well at night.

"No need to roast it, just prepare the lamb and send it over. I want it now."

"I'll do it right away." Leng Xiao took the order and strode away.

Chuntao looked at the game on the ground, which was alive and kicking, but tied up with ropes. She smiled at Jiang Youning, "Girl, look how good the general is to you. He caught game for you just as he said he would, and he caught so much, enough to last you for a long time."

Jiang Youning looked at the game on the ground, smiling, "General, this is what a man is. He keeps his word."

Yuanbao walked over and looked at the group of game on the ground, which were placed there as if they were free.

There was an empty space in the backyard, and a rabbit was alone. It was enough to put all the game in.

He moved the game to the backyard one by one with his hands and feet.

Leng Xiao worked very fast, and a processed sheep was delivered in a short time.

Yuanbao took a look at the sheep and looked up at Jiang Youning, "Miss, how do you deal with this?"

Jiang Youning walked over and stared at the sheep for a while. She was best at roasting whole lamb.

"I'll teach you."

Yuanbao looked at Jiang Youning with shining eyes, "Okay."

Chuntao took the prepared seasoning and put it on the table, then stood aside and watched Jiang Youning marinate it.

Jiang Youning said: "As long as it is barbecue, the marinating method is actually similar, but lamb has a stronger smell. Add more wine and onions, and marinate it for a while."

"I know." Yuanbao washed his hands and began to marinate the sheep according to the usual marinating method.

After marinating for half an hour, start to roast it over a fire.

Jiang Youning sat on a small stool, watching the whole process of roasting the lamb while warming herself by the fire.

When the lamb was almost cooked, Chuntao reminded her, "Girl, go and call the general to come over to eat roasted lamb together."
