“…”
Luo Dahu really hated Shu Jiaying's meddling, but he couldn't lose his temper in front of Village Chief Xu, so he suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "Well, you are Xiaohua's guardian, so you must be with Xiaohua.
Miss Shu, let's go in first. Don't you think it's inconvenient to let the guests wait inside?
Besides, your aunt should have prepared a sumptuous meal by now. Can we eat and drink well tonight?"
Luo Dahu's words sounded nice, but to put it bluntly, this was actually a Hongmen Banquet, which was why Shu Jiaying disdained to attend it. She still insisted on taking Xiaohua to Xu Lichang's house to take shelter.
At this time, the aroma of meat drifted through the main room and out. When Village Chief Xu smelled the scent, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Looking at Xiaohua's thin appearance, she probably hadn't had many good meals since Erlang's death, and there was now another Feng Qiaoer in his room.
Worried about the difficulty in explaining, Village Chief Xu spoke up for Luo Dahu, saying, "Jiaying, you two should stay here. This is Xiaohua's home after all. I think everything will be fine."
"But Uncle Xu..."
"Okay, it's settled. If anything happens and you come to my house, I will definitely rush here as soon as possible."
"Can……"
"Jiaying girl, uncle has something to do at home, so just be obedient. I'll be leaving first."
Afraid that if he smelled the tempting aroma again, he might look greedy and be disrespectful to others, Village Chief Xu left quickly.
"Uncle Xu..."
Looking at the hurried figure, Shu Jiaying sighed helplessly.
well……
This time, she really knew there was a tiger in the mountain, but she still chose to go there.
Holding Xiaohua's hand tightly, Shu Jiaying had no choice but to go back into the house.
Tianxiang knew that Village Chief Xu had left, so he ran out of the kitchen and deliberately sat opposite Xiaohua, staring at her without any scruples.
Xiaohua was very disgusted by such looks, but she was still a child, and she was also worried that the man named Tianxiang would take her away, so she always hid her face behind Shu Jiaying intentionally or unintentionally.
Shu Jiaying angrily scolded Tianxiang for his unscrupulous gaze, "Why do you keep staring at others? You're very annoying, don't you know?"
Luo Dahu immediately stepped forward and scolded her, "Miss Shu, you can't be impolite. Uncle Tianxiang is a guest!"
"I'm rude? But I wouldn't stare at others all the time. What does he mean by that? Xiaohua, forget it. I don't have much appetite. Let's go back to the room together!"
"Sister, I don't want to eat either..."
Before she could finish her words, Xiaohua's saliva had already fallen out of the corners of her mouth, and her tongue couldn't help licking her lips.
This action has completely betrayed her. She wants to eat, she really wants to eat.
Seeing this, Luo Dahu laughed bluntly, "You're already licking your lips and you still say you don't want to eat? Xiaohua, let me tell you, your aunt's braised pork trotters are delicious. The leftovers can be used to make soup. It's both nourishing and delicious, perfect for you girls. Just wait, you'll have something to eat soon."
“…”
Xiaohua looked at Shu Jiaying somewhat bewilderedly.
Seeing Xiaohua's greedy look, Shu Jiaying asked, "Do you still want to eat?"
Xiaohua didn't dare to answer directly. She whispered, "If sister doesn't want to eat, Xiaohua can also not eat."
"Okay, let's just sit here and wait for food. Why not eat something delicious?"
"Really? Sister Jiaying, that's great."
Xiaohua stood up from her chair with anticipation. She asked excitedly, "Can I go to the kitchen and take a look? I also want to know how the braised pork trotters are made. Sister, if I learn how to make them, I'll make them for you next time."
