The foods that Ke Meiyu mentioned are indeed delicious, and they are the kind of food that people only dare to eat during the Lunar New Year. They also require a lot of effort and are very resource-intensive!
If she hadn't been at someone's house, people would have thought she was there to cause trouble.
Everyone was taken aback, but they didn't feel sorry for him at all. They all nodded with indulgent smiles.
Especially my uncle, who skipped work to come over, said, "Make it, make it, make it! Your aunt always talks about you whenever she eats something delicious. She's been waiting for you for ages. Now that you're here, the dresser in the room is almost overflowing with good stuff."
“It’s the off-season for farming now, so your aunt has time to do it, and your brothers can also contribute their labor!”
The original owner had a very good relationship with Ke Qingqiu. The children of Ke's fourth wife were all close in age and were all boys, so Ke Meiyu was raised by her for half the time.
Even after Ke Qingqiu got married, he would still occasionally bring his little niece to his home to play.
Although the original owner hadn't visited for several years, the Ji family didn't seem to have any estrangement from her; they still treated her like the pretty, well-behaved, and sweet-talking little girl from back then.
She was always given the best food, and no one in the family objected. Even the new bride had no choice but to accept reality under Ke Qingqiu's constant brainwashing.
As soon as she finished speaking, Ke Meiyu pouted and looked aggrieved, "Auntie, I haven't eaten enough, I'm still very hungry."
The mental and spiritual energy she expended in inscribing talismans was enormous, and it couldn't be replenished in just one or two meals.
Ke Qingqiu quickly laughed and said, "You little devil, you've only been married for two months, but you've already learned how to be considerate."
"Doesn't your aunt know what you're up to? Don't worry, there's plenty of food in the pot, enough for everyone!"
This time, Ke Meiyu didn't hold back anymore and really ate all the food in the pot.
The Ji family stared in astonishment at her flat stomach. Where did all that food go?
Qin Yuanjiu briefly sensed his surroundings, then lowered his eyes. "I'll come pick you up again in a few days."
Ke Meiyu nodded, "Yes, I haven't been here in a long time, I need to spend more time with my aunt."
The implication was that he should come a few days later.
The mythical beast was even connected to the feudal royal family, so it must be extremely intelligent. She was afraid that the time was too short and she wouldn't even be able to see the true face of the mythical beast, let alone solve the Ji family's problems.
Qin Yuanjiu glanced at her, then casually swept his gaze over the men of the Ji family in the room, all of whom were outstanding in both appearance and temperament.
Thankfully, this is a modern society, otherwise Ke Meiyu would have been betrothed to her by her aunt long ago.
"Okay, when you want to go back, have someone make a phone call from town."
Ke Meiyu blinked. Actually, it didn't need to be that complicated; she had paper cranes to send messages.
However, only my cousin's wife can truly understand the loneliness of such a highly accomplished person.
After seeing the man off, Ke Meiyu used the excuse of needing to digest her food to take a stroll around with a few of her sisters-in-law in the pleasant winter sunshine.
Perhaps because she had eaten her fill, she was in much better spirits. Her face was rosy and fair, and she had two little buns on her head, looking as pretty as a doll in a New Year's painting.
Many people, especially children, couldn't help but follow her around and call her "pretty sister."
If it weren't for the fear of being caught doing something wrong, everyone would want to call her Fairy Sister!
Ke Meiyu's spiritual sense was now exhausted, and she was unable to use it to scan her surroundings. She could only stare intently at any unusual activity in the village.
The saying goes that it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone or tendon, and the nourishment of one's spiritual consciousness would probably take just as long.
After a quick stroll around, she didn't find anything amiss, so she wandered to the village entrance and struck up a conversation with the old men and women.
"Hello, Grandpa Huang and Grandma Zhang..."
"Oh, little Yu Bao'er, do you still remember your Grandma Zhang?" an old man with half a tooth missing asked with a chuckle.
"Of course! Grandma Zhang gave me a pair of very beautiful red squirrel fur gloves. They were so warm! Look how my hands don't get cold in winter—it's all thanks to those gloves!"
Ke Meiyu smiled and took out a White Rabbit milk candy from her pocket, popped one into the old man's mouth, and then shared it with the others, whispering mysteriously, "Don't push it back, just consider it my wedding candy."
"I didn't bring much. If someone sees it, there won't be any extra points left."
Upon hearing this, the elderly couple quickly stuffed the candy into their pockets, saying they were fortunate to have the opportunity to taste what White Rabbit milk candy actually tasted like.
They were a very hard-working generation; they couldn't even afford to eat eggs, let alone dairy products.
Ke Meiyu felt a slight pang of sadness. There were so many unfortunate people in the world living in poverty; how many could she possibly help?
It must be said that the greatness of the organization's leaders is due to the hard work and dedication of generations of people for the country and its people, which has enabled China to truly prosper.
In a few more years, when that spring breeze blows, the lives of ordinary people will be much better.
"Grandma Zhang, I love listening to your stories the most! What strange things happen in our village? Can you tell me about them?"
Today the sun is warm and gentle, and the north wind is blowing lazily. People stand at the entrance of the village, basking in the sunshine, feeling very comfortable.
The elderly men and women lowered their voices and told Ke Meiyu some secrets that they couldn't tell others.
As she listened, Ke Meiyu's eyes flickered slightly as she caught the information she wanted.
“Speaking of which, one of our village’s educated youths is going back to the city,” an old woman said in a low voice. “He’s been here for seven or eight years, hasn’t he?”
When this person is mentioned, everyone starts talking: "He's from Beijing, so he must have connections. Otherwise, why is it that none of the other educated youth returned to the city after going to the countryside, but he did?"
"Tsk tsk, back when he came, he was carrying a bag and holding a little white dog. He was probably only fourteen or fifteen years old then, right?"
