After returning home, Shi Qi prepared hot water and asked Gu Chijin to kill the chicken, while he rolled up his sleeves to prepare other ingredients.
Seeing Gu Chijin killing a chicken in the yard, the Li family men guarding outside the villa looked at each other, hesitating whether to go and help.
But Master Li only asked them to protect the young lady's personal safety and did not ask them to help with these trivial matters.
Before the bodyguards could make a decision, Gu Chijin had already killed the chicken and bled it, soaked it in boiling water, picked it up and started plucking its feathers.
Shi Qi was standing in the kitchen, cutting side dishes. When he turned his head, he could see Gu Chijin plucking the feathers seriously.
He had a serious look on his face, and if you didn't know, he was sorting out military newspapers.
With two chuckles, Shi Qi withdrew his gaze and concentrated on cutting vegetables.
After plucking the chicken feathers, Gu Chijin took the chicken into the kitchen, cut it into pieces and cleaned it.
After blanching the chicken, Shi Qi started to stew the soup.
After putting a few red dates and wolfberries in it, Shi Qi covered the pot.
Gu Chijin went to the garden, turned over the blood-stained soil and buried it, collected the chicken feathers and threw them outside, then turned around and came back with the basin.
The chicken soup was boiled for two or three hours. Shi Qi poked the chicken with chopsticks and saw that it was already soft, so he used a large lunch box to scoop out a large box of it.
I put both chicken legs in specifically.
Gu Chijin watched the whole thing and didn't say anything.
Only when she was holding the lunch box, he reached out to take it for fear of burning her.
Shi Qi also fried some leeks and eggs, stir-fried pork, and some green vegetables, and served them with chicken soup. The portion was enough for two people.
After packing everything, Shi Qi and Gu Chi Jin got in the bodyguard car and went to the army.
After getting off the car at the military gate, Shi Qi easily entered the gate under the guidance of Gu Chijin.
Even Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu were not alarmed.
When Shi Qi and Gu Chijin brought lunch boxes to the white building where Li Yuanliang was staying, Li Shaoyu was discussing the next plan with him in the room.
When Li Yuanliang saw his beloved daughter suddenly appear at the door with a freshly made love meal, his face almost broke into a smile.
He quickly opened the door and let Shi Qi in.
As for Gu Chijin behind her, Li Yuanliang's attitude towards him has obviously changed a lot after he protected his precious daughter this time.
Although there was still a coldness on his face, the tension was completely gone compared to the last time they met.
Shi Qi felt warm in his heart and asked Gu Chijin to put the food box on the table.
Gu Chijin followed suit and placed several food boxes on the dining table that Shi Qi pointed to. He stepped aside and called out "Uncle".
Li Yuanliang glanced at his daughter and saw her looking at him with admiration. He felt happy and responded to Gu Chijin.
"Since you're here, take a seat."
Then he turned to look at the food his daughter brought:
"Chu Chu, what delicious food did you make for Dad?"
Shi Qi's mouth curled up slightly, and he bent down to open several food boxes one by one.
Only after Li Yuanliang impatiently sat down at the table did he open the last two food boxes containing rice and take out the chopsticks.
"Just now, Gu Chijin went to buy a chicken, and I made soup and fried two side dishes.
Dad, brother, have you eaten yet? If not, come and have some."
The portion she brought was enough so that Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu could share it.
After washing the chopsticks again, Shi Qi brought them in and gave a pair to Li Shaoyu and Li Yuanliang respectively.
The room where Li Yuanliang rested was very large, with a small table inside. Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu had not eaten yet, so they took the chopsticks and each picked up a dish.
Li Yuanliang loved eating meat. When he saw Shi Qi stir-frying a dish of meat, he first put his chopsticks into the meat slices.
When he put the food in his mouth and tasted his daughter's cooking skills, Li Yuanliang was really surprised.
"Chu Chu, you cooked this dish very well.
When I return to Beijing, I will cook one for your mother as well."
It was the first time for Li Shaoyu to eat food cooked by his own sister.
Li Shaoyu picked up two pieces of green vegetables and put them into his mouth. He was also surprised by Shi Qi.
"As long as you like it, I will cook it for you every day next time I return to the capital."
Seeing that Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu picked up their chopsticks faster, Shi Qi's smile deepened.
Gu Chijin sat aside, staring at the smile on Shi Qi's face, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu gave Shi Qi a lot of face. The two grown men ate up all the food that Shi Qi brought with them using the food in the lunch box.
Shi Qi was really surprised to see that the two of them finished all the food in a short time.
Especially when he saw that the big box of chicken soup and chicken had basically gone into Li Yuanliang's stomach, Shi Qi's eyes widened.
She remembered that when Li Yuanliang was eating in the capital, his appetite was not so big.
Why today...
Looking at Li Yuanliang in shock, Shi Qi stared at his stomach worriedly:
"Dad, how about I go downstairs with you to help you digest your food?"
Li Shaoyu smiled teasingly, saying:
"Ningchu, you underestimate Dad. This little bit of food won't even make him bloated."
Li Yuanliang burst into laughter after understanding his daughter's meaning:
"Chu Chu, don't underestimate your father.
This little bit of food can’t even sustain me.”
Back when he was still leading soldiers in the army, the training volume was heavy and he had no problem eating with a bowl.
This is just a meal today. When he was young, he would only be half full.
Shi Qi breathed a sigh of relief and then asked when Li Yuanliang would return to Beijing.
Speaking of this, Li Yuanliang's face turned ugly again and he stared at Gu Chijin in the room.
"I heard from your brother that you won't go back this time?"
Gu Chijin didn't say anything, Shi Qi nodded directly:
"Yes, Dad, I won't go back with you and brother this time.
I like it here and I want to live here for a while.”
Li Yuanliang looked at his daughter deeply, sighed and said nothing more:
"Okay, it's up to you this time.
But your grandfather will be back for the New Year, and you will have to go back to the capital for the New Year reunion. I will send someone to pick you up then."
Shi Qi was stunned. She almost forgot the most powerful old man in the Li family.
He exchanged a glance with Gu Chijin, and seeing his agreement, Shi Qi nodded slowly:
"Okay, I'll go back to the capital early for the New Year."
After staying in the army for a few hours and chatting with Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu, Shi Qi and Gu Chijin got up and left.
The next morning, Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu left the army.
Before leaving, they came to Shiqi's residence, gave her instructions again, and then left in the car.
Before leaving, Li Shaoyu told Shi Qi that this small villa has been registered under Shi Qi's name, and as long as she likes it, she can live here for the time being while she lives with Gu Chijin.
They left in a hurry, and Shi Qi didn't have time to ask for information about the original owner of the villa. He watched their car disappear around the corner of the road before he reluctantly looked away.
The sadness of parting lingered in his heart for less than five minutes before Shi Qi immediately cheered up and excitedly started packing up his things while pulling Gu Chijin along.
She couldn't wait any longer, so she went back to the military family compound today to see Bai Xiaohua and Jiang Ling, whom she had been separated from for more than half a year.
Let’s see how they have been doing in the past six months and whether the two children have grown taller or gained weight.
