Chapter 162 Hot Pot



I thought Gu Chengyan would be polite, but who knew he would be so rude.

"Okay. I'll bring a jar back to my parents so they can try it too."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

Doesn't this guy know what politeness is?

"Haha, if you take it back, you won't have anything to drink, right?"

Gu Chengyan smiled.

"It's okay. Didn't you say you could make fruit wine? I'll drink it when you're done."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

There is not much fruit wine brewed in the space. If there were more, I could give more to Gu Chengyan.

"I don't know when you'll be back, but I still have some fruit wine here. Take it all with you when you leave. As for your parents, I'll send some to them when I'm done brewing."

When Gu Chengyan heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

"In that case, I won't be polite."

Seeing that Gu Chengyan agreed so readily, Lin Jiuyue suspected that Gu Chengyan had been waiting for her here for a long time. Thinking of this, Lin Jiuyue felt a little aggrieved.

Lin Jiuyue took three jars of fruit wine, one for each person, and put the remaining fruit wine together, preparing to pack it for Gu Chengyan and Lin Qiye to take with them when they left.

Lin Jiuyue first marinated the meat, and then skewered the vegetables. By the time the vegetables were skewered, the meat had also been marinated.

"Qiye, the charcoal fire can be lit."

After hearing this, Lin Qiye quickly ran to light the charcoal fire. When the charcoal fire was burning brightly, Lin Jiuyue had already skewered the meat.

The seasonings needed for barbecue have been prepared in advance by Lin Jiuyue and are just waiting to be used during the barbecue process.

Lin Qiye looked at the large jar of barbecue seasoning, his eyes almost narrowed into slits.

Place the skewered ingredients on the grill, brush them with oil and grill them at the same time. During the grilling process, sprinkle some prepared seasonings on them.

Once the seasoning is sprinkled on and grilled over charcoal, the unique barbecue aroma will be released.

"Sister, good, it smells so good."

Lin Qiye wanted to say that he hadn't smelled this kind of smell for a long time, but when he thought of Gu Chengyan beside him, he changed his words to "It smells so good".

"Really? This seasoning of mine would be delicious even if you were eating roasted shoe soles."

Lin Jiuyue said proudly.

Gu Chengyan was standing aside and couldn't help laughing when he heard Lin Jiuyue's words.

This girl speaks in an interesting way.

"Jiuyue, do you have extra seasoning? Can you give me some?"

Lin Jiuyue looked at Gu Chengyan in surprise.

This guy, is he addicted to asking for things? He just asked me for so much fruit wine, and now he wants my barbecue seasoning!

However, considering that he had taken care of me and my sister when we were fleeing from famine, I would give him some.

Anyway, after he got these seasonings, he wanted to grill something and eat it, and his brother could also eat with him. He could also do someone a favor. Kill two birds with one stone!

"Yes. But there's not much right now. I need to prepare."

What Lin Jiuyue meant by preparation was waiting for the cumin and other spices grown in the space to be harvested.

Gu Chengyan thought Lin Jiuyue was going to prepare seasoning for him and didn't think much about it.

As the three of them chatted, the food on the grill was already sizzling. Lin Jiuyue was seasoning the food and turning the ingredients over quickly, yet without appearing flustered.

Soon, the first batch of grilled food was ready. Lin Jiuyue placed the grilled food on a plate and added some skewered ingredients.

"Sister, try it first."

Lin Qiye picked up a skewer of roasted pork belly and brought it to his mouth. Suddenly, he remembered that his sister had been busy for so long and hadn't tasted it yet. He handed the roasted pork belly to Lin Jiuyue.

Lin Jiuyue didn't hesitate to take the roasted pork belly handed to her by Lin Qiye and started eating.

When Gu Chengyan saw Lin Jiuyue take the roasted pork belly handed to him by Lin Qiye, the expression on his face changed.

But when he thought that they were siblings, his expression calmed down a little.

"Yeah, that's the taste. Brother Gu, you should try it too, it's delicious."

Gu Chengyan nodded, picked up the grilled skewers from the plate and started eating without saying a word.

"Mm, it tastes really good."

Lin Qiye raised his head proudly.

"That's right, nothing my sister makes is bad."

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Jiuyue's home was a little far away, the aroma of the barbecue would definitely attract the surrounding neighbors.

The three of them barbecued and ate and drank until late at night, and then they went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, Lin Jiuyue got up early, took out the copper pot she had prepared in advance, and took out some fresh ingredients.

We had barbecue yesterday, and today we are going to have hot pot.

I had always thought that I would eat hot pot when the weather got cooler, but I didn’t expect that my younger brother would go to the border so soon.

The prepared copper pot had to be taken out in advance.

By the time Lin Qiye and Gu Chengyan arrived at the kitchen, Lin Jiuyue had already prepared all the ingredients for the hot pot.

"Sister, why are you making so many dishes?"

"Eat hot pot."

Lin Qiye: ...

We had barbecue last night and we are going to have hotpot today.

My sister prepared these things because she is going on a long trip, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Qiye's eyes turned red.

"sister……"

Lin Jiuyue raised her eyes and looked at her younger brother.

"What's wrong? You're all going to the battlefield, why are you still acting like a little girl? You cry at the slightest provocation!"

Lin Qiye scratched his face and said stubbornly.

"Who said that? It's because I haven't eaten in a long time."

As soon as Lin Qiye finished speaking, Gu Chengyan walked over.

Lin Qiye fell silent instantly.

No matter how good Brother Gu is, and no matter how much I treat him as a family member, he is still not as important as my own sister. My sister's secret must never be known to others.

Otherwise, not only will I be in trouble in the future, but my sister will be in trouble too.

"What are you doing again?"

The barbecue I made yesterday tasted like nothing I've ever tasted before. I wonder what new things these siblings have prepared today.

"Hot pot, Brother Gu, have you ever eaten hot pot?"

Gu Chengyan looked at Lin Qiye in confusion.

"Hot pot? What kind of new food is that?"

Lin Qiye smiled.

"You'll know when you try it later. This hot pot tastes just as good as barbecue. However, this hot pot is perfect for cold weather. Eating it while it cooks is truly amazing."

Gu Chengyan: ...

Sometimes it's barbecue, sometimes it's hot pot. Who of the two siblings came up with this idea?

How come I have never seen these new ways of eating?
