505 Outrageous
They could also figure out why Empress Shao was in a bad mood. It should be because the Crown Prince had not been found, so she was easily affected by this issue.
“What’s so difficult about it? Of course you can. You don’t have to buy it. You can just take two seedless watermelons.” Xue Dafu immediately agreed and laughed. “Besides the seedless watermelons that we sell, we also keep some for our own use. We definitely can’t take out too many, but two should be fine.”
Liu Guixia also nodded along. He decided that Shao Shuting was a good brother and still missed his sister at home.
“When are we eating?” Xue Wufu, who was starving, stood in the central room and leaned against the door frame, asking weakly.
“Oh yes! Let’s go.” Liu Guixia and the others were immediately amused.
Then, they started to eat. Before they went out to eat, they said to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, “When that servant comes back, take him to the field to pick two seedless watermelons.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both agreed.
Xue Da and the others sat in the central room and started eating. They filled Xue Dagui’s bowl with a lot of food and put it to the side so that Xue Dagui could heat it up for dinner when he returned. Xue Yifu also brought some food to Shao Shuting’s room for him to eat.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t hurry to eat. Instead, they sent the medicine that had been boiled and cooled to Shao Shuting.
The door was open. They were afraid that Xue Da would see them get shocked by the action, so Xue Yan stood there naturally and tried his best to block their view. Then, Jiang Yue poured another glass of wine into Shao Shuting’s mouth.
Then, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan returned to the central room for dinner.
“Dagui’s place is more spacious than your house. Now that your house has ice, it’s become more cramped.” Xue Da laughed as he ate the meals that were prepared by his favorite grandchildren.
“It’ll be fine after we build the bigger house. The bricks haven’t been baked yet, right?” Xue Dafu laughed. “It’s been two months. They told me it would be delivered between two to three months. So it should be coming soon enough.”
“Alright. That’s good.” Xue Da couldn’t stop smiling.
“Grandpa, you should try the meat. Jiang Yue’s dishes are really delicious. My favorite is the fish, and the second is the meat. The other dishes are also delicious, but I really like these two.” Xue Wuhu said as he gave Xue Da a few pieces of twice-cooked pork.
The color was really…
Just looking at it made one hungry.
“This pig’s heart is delicious too.” Yu Hongyan laughed. “I used to think that pig’s hearts weren’t delicious and had a distinct smelly smell. I don’t know how Jiang Yue made it, but I don’t smell it at all!”
“I like this mapo tofu. Look at this tender one,” Liu Guixia said with a smile. “I’ve made it before, but it’s not as good as this.”
“The cold cucumber salad is so crunchy,” Xue Yifu said with a silly smile.
“Yeah,” Li Hehua chimed in with a smile, “It’s very refreshing.”
“I think they’re all delicious,” Xue Dafu chuckled. After he finished speaking, he buried his head and started eating again.
Although Xue Yan was eating slowly, he still found that these dishes were really delicious. Usually, he would be full after eating a small bowl, but today, because the food was delicious, he ate half a bowl more.
His father and the others were just the same. Not only did they eat an extra large bowl of rice, but they also finished all the soup they had, leaving nothing behind. Every plate was clean by the end of the meal.
