"Master." Hearing Pei Jiao's words, Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Yan.
"Go ahead." Jiang Yan was busy grabbing the duck legs for Xu Ning and didn't even turn his head.
Xu Ning's mouth was full of oil. He felt a little embarrassed at first, but he completely adapted to Jiangyan, and it only took him a bowl of rice to get used to it.
"Eat slowly." Jiang Yan didn't eat much, but he felt very satisfied.
Qi Canglan was originally one seat away from the two of them. When he saw this scene, he felt his eyes were stung by a sour and stinky smell, and he silently moved away.
Pei Jiao shook her head and looked down to find that Qi Songbo had put several pieces of meat in her bowl, and they were her favorite ones.
Pei Jiao looked at Qi Songbo's hopeful eyes and ate her meal silently.
Qi Canglan felt that these people were hopeless. He cast his gaze on the two youngest kids and found that Pei Ni and Xu Feng were also learning to pick up food for each other.
He didn't give up and looked at the others. Old Man Xu was picking up food for Old Lady Xu, Xu Da was picking up food for Zhang, and even Xu An picked up a piece of Xu Yuan's favorite dish.
He was the only one at the table, standing alone like a cabbage in the cold wind.
Qi Canglan looked around in confusion while holding the bowl: May this world be destroyed.
Suddenly, his bowl sank. He looked at Xu Ning who was reaching out his hand. Just when he was about to feel better, he looked down and found a piece of chicken butt in the bowl.
"Oh, sorry, I picked up the wrong one." Xu Ning picked up the chicken butt and threw it in the direction of Chuyi behind him. "Hold it, hold it, it's for Chuyi."
Qi Canglan: What? He's not even worthy of eating chicken butt?
"Daya, what are you doing?!" Old Mrs. Xu gave him a disapproving look. Xu Ning stuck out his tongue and lowered his head to continue eating. Xu An, who was the closest person, quickly picked up a piece of chicken breast for Qi Canglan to make up for it.
What could Qi Canglan do? He could only bite hard to vent his anger.
After dinner, the sun set to the west, and the tall fortress cast a shadow in the yard.
The valley at this time seems particularly peaceful, as if time has stood still. The autumn breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of coolness, making people feel relaxed and happy.
In the courtyard in the middle of the fortress, wooden lounge chairs were quietly placed. Except for the two elders of the Xu family and the servants, everyone else was lying on them! They were sitting or lying down, in various postures, but without exception, they all closed their eyes, enjoying this moment of silence and the comfort brought by the autumn breeze.
Some people tilted their heads slightly, as if listening to the whispers of the wind; some people casually placed their hands on the armrests, letting their thoughts drift; and some people even began to snore softly, obviously having fallen into a sweet dream.
Half an hour later, Xu Ning wiped the eye mucus from his face caused by a little inflammation, and was pulled up from the recliner by Xu Yuan.
The grain harvest started again in the afternoon, and this time nearly a quarter of the rice in the valley was harvested in one go.
As a result of their tirelessness on the first day, few young people could get up on the second day. Each of them felt as heavy as if their body was filled with lead, and any movement made them grimace in pain as if they were run over by a car.
The worst among them are Qi Canglan and Qi Songbo. Qi Canglan is better, after all, he is not a pure scholar. Qi Songbo is just a pen-wielding man. Although he knows some martial arts, he has not practiced them diligently for many years.
"Forget it, forget it, just lie down." Qi Canglan had already accepted the assigned task of lying down, but Qi Songbo still wanted to help, but was pushed back by Qi Canglan.
"Pei Jiao won't laugh at you. After all, we're all here as guests. Everyone has their own specialties, so relax a little."
Moreover, speaking of jokes, the way they both appeared was hilarious enough, and now his main theme is that it doesn't matter.
"You don't understand. If I do more, Jiaojiao can do less." Qi Songbo insisted. Qi Canglan had no choice but to help him.
As a result, before noon, Lord Qi was brought back by Lady Pei herself.
