The soldier looked at the man who didn't fit in with everyone else as if he were an idiot.
Following his instructions, Feng Beichuan obtained the flint and steel.
Although he had never cooked or lit a stove before, he still used flint and steel frequently.
Soon, the hay and firewood were lit.
Looking at his achievements, Feng Beichuan nodded in satisfaction.
What are you doing?
Another soldier suddenly rushed over in a panic. He pushed Feng Beichuan aside and then hurriedly grabbed a piece of firewood that hadn't been lit and pushed the burning hay and firewood on the ground into the stove.
Feng Beichuan stood aside, confused and very dissatisfied with the man who had just pushed him away.
How can these people be so rude? It's absolutely unbecoming!
Feng Beichuan frowned slightly, wondering if Li Chang'an's personality was the way it was now because he had spent a lot of time with these rough men.
It seems I'll have to find a way to keep her away from these people in the future!
"You idiot, you've never lit a stove before, have you?"
Looking at the small patch of ground in front of the furnace that was charred black, the soldier couldn't help but curse at Feng Beichuan.
That idiot! If I hadn't come in just now, he probably would have burned the house down!
Feng Beichuan was baffled by the insult and immediately became furious: "You're the idiot! How dare you speak to me like that!"
"I don't care what kind of king you are, this is my territory! If you don't know how to handle things, then don't make trouble!"
This guy has a short temper; he made Feng Peichuan furious with just a few words.
"What's wrong with you two? Why are you arguing?"
Li Chang'an walked over with the freshly gutted fish, looking at the two men glaring at each other, wondering what had gotten into them.
"General, who is this guy? He's just making trouble. Look around, who starts a fire without putting firewood in the stove first?"
The soldier angrily complained to Li Chang'an about Feng Beichuan's foolish actions.
"I've never done this before, how would I know? Who said I'm here to cause trouble? Chang An clearly asked me to come and help!"
Feng Beichuan retorted, not to be outdone.
"If you haven't done this before, what are you doing here making a fuss! And who are you to call our general by his name?"
"you!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Li Chang'an quickly acted as a peacemaker and stopped them: "Alright, alright, stop arguing! I was too hasty in this matter. Lao Zhao, you go ahead and do your work. Feng Beichuan, you come out here!"
After saying that, Li Chang'an took off the cloth wrapped around his body with a dark face and threw it aside. He then grabbed Feng Beichuan's sleeve and walked out.
Li Chang'an pursed his lips and tightened his face, looking very unpleasant.
After the two left the kitchen, Feng Beichuan still looked at the woman in front of him with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Li Chang'an felt like he was about to be driven mad by this guy.
She couldn't help but wonder if she had killed this guy's entire family in her past life, or dug up their ancestral graves, to be suffering like this in this life.
"Please go find somewhere cool and stay there!"
At this moment, Li Chang'an really wanted to dig three feet into the ground and bury this guy.
This time, Feng Beichuan finally had some self-awareness. Knowing that he wasn't cut out for the kitchen, he stopped causing trouble and started wandering around the courtyard.
About an hour later, the aroma of food wafted through the courtyard. Someone shouted that dinner was served, and the soldiers began to stir.
This time, Feng Beichuan was finally able to help out. He helped everyone carry the food outside, and because there were so many people, they simply ate together in the courtyard.
Although the two had already eaten at the restaurant, Li Chang'an still sat with everyone else, and Feng Beichuan naturally followed suit.
"General, please eat something. Look, this fish and meat were specially bought. Otherwise, we would just make do with whatever we have in the military camp."
Deputy General Sun greeted them warmly, and then put some of Li Chang'an's favorite steamed fish into her bowl.
This fish was specially prepared because Li Chang'an came over today.
Although he wasn't hungry at all, Li Chang'an still picked up his chopsticks.
As Feng Beichuan watched Deputy General Sun serve food to Li Chang'an, a strange pang of jealousy welled up inside him.
What's even more outrageous is that Li Chang'an actually ate it!
"Here, I think this chicken soup is pretty good. They say you should drink soup before a meal, so there's no rush to eat the fish!"
As he spoke, Feng Beichuan picked up the bowl in front of him, filled it with chicken soup, placed it in front of Li Chang'an, and looked at her with expectant eyes.
Li Chang'an rolled his eyes at Feng Beichuan, wondering what was wrong with him this time.
"No, I'm not hungry!"
Looking at the bowl of oily chicken soup, although the soup was clear and bright like tea, Li Chang'an had no appetite at all, and didn't even want to eat the fish anymore.
Seeing that Li Chang'an had so coldly rejected him, Feng Beichuan couldn't help but feel frustrated. Why was she willing to eat the fish that Deputy General Sun had served her? Wasn't the chicken soup he had served much better than that fish?
At this moment, Feng Beichuan felt very resentful.
"If you're not hungry, then don't eat anything!"
As he spoke, he reached out and moved all the bowls in front of Li Chang'an to the side.
Li Chang'an couldn't help but frown slightly, finding this person utterly inexplicable.
As Deputy General Sun watched from the side, he suddenly noticed a sour smell in the air.
Looking at Feng Beichuan's face, which was even darker than a bottle of vinegar, I couldn't help but find it a little funny.
However, as the saying goes, one should see through things but not say them out loud. Deputy General Sun simply pretended to be oblivious to others and continued eating his food.
Li Chang'an turned his head away in annoyance, not wanting to look at Feng Beichuan anymore. Everyone else just kept their heads down and ate in silence, making the atmosphere somewhat dull for a moment.
"General, how have things been going for you in court lately? Have those old men stopped making things difficult for you?"
Just as Feng Beichuan was racking his brains trying to think of something to talk about, Deputy General Sun spoke up first.
"Fortunately, although they were still resentful of me, they didn't make things too difficult for me."
Li Chang'an was deep in thought when he heard what Deputy General Sun said. He then pulled himself out of his thoughts, raised his eyebrows, and said calmly.
Upon hearing her say this, Deputy General Sun nodded and felt relieved.
"Hmph, those old men will retire sooner or later, it's alright, Chang'an, you're just getting started, I'll be with you, we'll slowly wear them down..."
Feng Beichuan, who was standing to the side, quickly took over the conversation.
Upon hearing this, the soldiers below exchanged glances. After a brief exchange of looks, they all tacitly continued to eat, but couldn't help but steal a glance at Li Chang'an and Feng Beichuan.
