Hong Xiaoduo, along with Feiyan and the five children, strolled around and bought some things. They weren't in a hurry to buy everything; they could buy them slowly tomorrow or the day after.
They started heading back just before noon, only to find out the seller had already delivered the charcoal when they arrived at the house.
In the dining room, A-Ping had already set out the bowls, chopsticks, and Quan Jinghuai's wine cup and wine.
On the table, there was a large plate of boiled lamb neck, with a dipping sauce prepared on the side.
When Tianxuan heard them return, she peeked out to confirm, and immediately started cooking. Lamb trotters and braised mutton were stewing on the charcoal stove.
All the other vegetables were chopped, and we were just waiting for them to come back so we could start cooking them in the wok.
While Hong Xiaoduo was washing her hands, Tianquan had already told his master what had happened on the street.
Upon hearing this, Quan Jinghuai looked at Hong Xiaoduo speechlessly. It's no wonder those bastards were blind. With her appearance and age, even if she had a sword and whip at her waist, they would still think she was a young lady from a wealthy family, just wearing a sword for show!
Whose woman traveling the world has such delicate skin and fair complexion as her?
Even though they were both women, Fei Yan's skin wasn't as good as hers.
Let alone others, even when he first met her, he didn't think she had any special abilities!
But the truth is, he couldn't even beat her.
Although he had never sparred with her, Quan Jinghuai was certain that his skills were inferior to hers, far inferior.
"By the way, brother, remember that if we encounter any petty scoundrels who aren't too troublesome in the future, neither of us should take action. Let Feiyan have her fun." Hong Xiaoduo said to Quan Jinghuai after sitting down.
Hearing her words, Quan Jinghuai wanted to say, "Do you even need to tell me this? Just remember it yourself. Every time something happens, aren't you the one who takes care of it? I don't even get a chance!"
In the time it took to say a few words, the dishes were served one after another: stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, hot and sour shredded potatoes, lamb blood stew with tofu and pickled vegetables with vermicelli, braised lamb, and the stewed lamb trotters were chopped into pieces by Tianxuan so that everyone could have some. After all, they only killed one sheep and only got four trotters.
The staple food was large steamed buns, served in bamboo trays.
Hong Xiaoduo truly admired Tianxuan; look how soft and fluffy these steamed buns are, and how they've even blossomed!
On ordinary days, Hong Xiaoduo doesn't drink alcohol. She reached out and grabbed a big steamed bun, took a bite, and tasted the unique aroma of flour that you can't find in modern times.
Of course, ancient flour wasn't as white as the flour sold today, but it tasted better.
After Tianxuan, the last person to sit down, sat down, everyone else picked up their chopsticks and started eating steamed buns.
"The mutton seems to have a bit of a gamey smell, I don't know what went wrong," Tianxuan said apologetically.
Hearing him say that, Hong Xiaoduo immediately picked up a piece of boiled lamb neck, ate it, swallowed it, and then picked up a piece of braised lamb. She said to Tianxuan, "No, it's delicious. How can lamb taste good without a bit of muttony smell? I like to eat it like this."
After saying that, she used a spoon to scoop up a piece of sheep's blood. It was smooth and tender, but a little hot. The pickled vegetables that came with it were also very delicious.
"Yaoguang, the sheep's blood is very hot. Let it cool down before you eat it." Seeing Yaoguang scoop up some sheep's blood and was about to put it in her mouth, Hong Xiaoduo quickly reminded her.
Tianxuan was delighted to have Hong Xiaoduo's approval: "Mom, let's make meat skewers after our martial arts practice this afternoon. I've already cut them, they'll be ready in no time."
“There are so many of us, we’ll make it in time. Oh, and remember to put those two lamb kidneys on too, and grill them for your master,” Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.
"Master, look how much my mother favors you; you're the only one who gets to eat," Tianquan said with a grin.
"Whoever wants some, I'll give it to you," Quan Jinghuai said comfortably, then raised his wine cup to his lips.
Upon hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo immediately blurted out, "Children can't eat it. Lamb kidneys are good for nourishing the kidneys and replenishing essence, so only adult men can eat them."
Cough cough cough, Quan Jinghuai choked on his drink after taking a sip.
While coughing, she looked at Hong Xiaoduo with a flushed face. Was it appropriate to say such things to a child?
Besides, I'm still a virgin bachelor, not someone with three wives and four concubines. I don't know how to control my sexual activity and my body is severely depleted. What's the point of supplementing my kidneys or replenishing my essence?
The younger children didn't react much at this point; if she said children couldn't eat it, then there must be a reason why.
Only Feiyan blushed, suppressing her laughter as she lowered her head to stuff a steamed bun into her mouth.
Seeing Quan Jinghuai's reaction, Hong Xiaoduo was puzzled: "I didn't say anything wrong. If you don't believe me, you can ask the doctor."
Quan Jinghuai waved his hand resignedly, "Never mind, that's just how she is."
Thinking back to the time when he was practicing martial arts and sweating, he was shirtless and wiping himself with water. She saw him and not only did she not avoid him, but she even came over and pointed at his abs, saying that he had eight-pack abs.
Quan Jinghuai hurriedly tore off his robe and put it on, while she was still saying that some people have six-pack abs.
Even now, with her face still burning, she's already telling Tianxuan to check if there are any scallions for sale when she goes to buy ingredients tomorrow, and to buy some so they can have mutton and scallion dumplings for lunch.
She arranged everything perfectly from head to toe for the sheep, even having the intestines prepared, saying she wanted to make sour soup sheep intestine noodles, stir-fried sheep intestines, and sheep intestine porridge.
Besides this, she even specifically instructed that a bone from the sheep's hind knee be removed, washed clean, and called "galaha." She said that if you collected four or more of those, you could play the game.
Tian Shu and the others ate and chatted, while A Ping ate quietly, listened, and watched, his eyes filled with undisguised envy.
