Chapter 110 Hotpot on the Road to Exile
Gu Xingzhao dropped the basin, which frightened Mo Li. "What happened?"
Did I just say something wrong?
Gu Xingzhao smiled awkwardly, "I didn't hold it firmly, I guess I scared you."
Mo Li: "No, no."
"I'll go wash some fruit. You can eat and drink whatever you want on the table. There are books to read on the bookshelf. I'll take a number. When it's almost time, we'll go out to eat."
Mo Li smiled and nodded.
After entering the kitchen, Gu Xingzhao rinsed the basin, and then thought of the six baskets of vegetables. He definitely couldn't finish them all by himself. He could send some to Aunt Wang later, take some to the Lu family, and give some to Lu Qing and the others as a snack.
Don't judge a book by its cover. Who would have thought that Mo Li, who looked so small, would actually be in charge of a thousand acres of land.
She couldn't help but think of what the male salesperson at the car dealership had said, that Mo Li was a country bumpkin who had to go back to farm. Well, it's really hard to say who is the country bumpkin.
At this time, Mo Li, who was sitting in the living room, was really bored. He went to the bookshelf and found that most of the books were medical books, which he probably couldn't understand.
Seeing that there was a TV in the living room, she simply took the remote control and turned on the TV, thinking of watching TV to pass the time.
The moment the TV was turned on, a tall man came into view. He stood like a bamboo, with slender eyebrows and a humble smile on the corners of his mouth. He looked gentle and elegant, and revealed a hint of extraordinary temperament.
Even his simple attire could not conceal the handsome talent that emanated from him from inside out. This must be the result of years of studying the books of sages. His every move revealed his gentlemanly nature.
Mo Li felt a bookish aura from the other person that seemed to be able to wash away the noise of the world.
She couldn't help but stare at this man, who had such a good temperament and good looks.
When Gu Xingzhao came out with the fruit, she saw that the TV was on and Mo Li was staring at it. Her heart skipped a beat!
She pretended to be calm, "Why are you watching TV?"
Mo Li came back to his senses and remembered that Gu Xingzhao seemed to have only said that people could eat and drink as they pleased and that they could read the books on the bookshelf, but he did not say that the TV could be turned on. His ears suddenly felt hot, "I'm sorry, I turned on the TV without your consent."
When she apologized now, Gu Xingzhao felt embarrassed instead, "It's okay, look."
Mo Li watched for a while, pointed at the man drinking water on TV, and asked Gu Xingzhao who was eating fruit, "Do you know which actor is this one wearing a red scarf?"
Seeing that she was referring to Lu Xingyao, Gu Xingzhao laughed dryly and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mo Li: "She is as gentle as jade, and has a very elegant temperament."
Seeing Mo Li's admiring face, Gu Xingzhao coughed twice. Lu Xingyao, as gentle as jade?
She hurriedly explained, "I don't know which actor it is. This is a disc I found at home. It must have been filmed by someone in my family for fun."
Mo Li suddenly realized, "So that's it."
I knew it, if there was such a person in the entertainment industry, he would have been famous a long time ago.
Gu Xingzhao was afraid that Mo Li would notice something strange if he continued to watch, so he quickly changed the subject, "It's almost time, we have to go to the barbecue restaurant."
Mo Li immediately stood up and followed Gu Xingzhao out.
In the evening of that day, Gu Xingzhao first delivered some vegetables to Aunt Wang and other neighbors, packed some other vegetables, and also bought a few packets of hot pot base from the supermarket. He wrote down the instructions for use with pictures and texts, and delivered them to Lu Qing and others.
"Lu Qing, I brought some vegetables and a few pots. You can cook them later or share some with others."
Lu Qing was surprised. Food?
Over there, because Lu Xingyao was injured, the tribesman who took over the responsibility of carrying the bamboo basket felt a weight on his back and immediately became energetic. He had been carrying the bamboo basket for two days and was reluctant to take it off even to rest. He finally waited for the ancestor to come and feed him!
He quickly took off the bamboo basket on his back and saw that it was filled with several pots and some bags of something that looked like water.
Several tribesmen nearby came over curiously to look, wondering, "Why would our ancestors send us several pots?"
At this moment, several people nearby exclaimed: "What is that!"
Everyone looked over and saw two large baskets placed there. Lu Xingyao was the first to go over and take a look. He lifted the cloth on the basket and found that it was actually two baskets of vegetables with a large bag of meat on top!
Oh my god, his charming and great ancestor actually sent divine vegetables from heaven!
The Lu family members understood now that the ancestor sent a few pots for them to cook. Those packages were probably like instant noodles, which needed to be opened and poured into water to cook.
God knows how many of them have never seen such juicy greens, woooo!
Lu Qing came over with a cane. He really didn't expect that there were so many vegetables in the mouths of his ancestors. Two full baskets were enough for a hundred people to eat for two days.
Our ancestors even prepared several buckets of water for cooking.
He ordered in a deep voice, "Divide these dishes and pots, and give half to the officials."
There were a lot of dishes, and some could actually be shared with other prisoners, but the Lu family shouldn't be the ones to share them. Otherwise, if they don't share them one day, they'd be criminals instead.
This is a taboo that his Lu family cannot commit.
Two people carried a basket of vegetables, two pots, two packets of hot pot base and water, and delivered them to Du Hangwu and others.
The officials were stunned by the huge basket of vegetables. The god of the Lu family was really down-to-earth and even gave them vegetables?
They swallowed their saliva, wondering if eating the food given by the gods would help them live longer.
Du Hangwu hurriedly thanked him. After all, he had been eating dry food for more than a month. Suddenly seeing so many dishes, he was excited and immediately ordered people to build a stove.
At this time, the Lu family had already started a fire and divided the pots into four pots. They followed what their ancestors had said, tore open the seasoning packets and poured them into the water. When the water boiled, they threw the vegetables in and cooked them. After turning them over twice, they were ready to eat.
The mushroom-flavored soup base is very rich and is perfect for cooking vegetables.
Lu Yang took a mouthful of vegetables and squinted his eyes subconsciously. The refreshing vegetables paired with the rich soup were so delicious that it made his eyebrows drop!
The tribesmen nearby also hurried to pick up the dishes. It had been a whole month and it was the first time they had eaten such fresh dishes. As they ate them one by one, they did not forget to express their gratitude to their ancestors.
Lu Xingyao sat cross-legged on the ground with the scarf on his legs, fearing that eating with the scarf on would affect his performance.
He ate one bite after another, and for a moment he felt like he was back in the days when he was still eating hearty meals at Lu's residence. He didn't know if he would still have food to eat after tonight, so he had to eat while he could, because every extra bite he ate was a win!
The aroma was rich and soon drifted away, making the people not far away drool. If it were anyone else, they would have rushed over to grab the food, but that was the Lu family, the Lu family with supernatural powers.
They didn't dare, so they could only turn their backs and gnaw on the dry food bite by bite, imagining that they were eating delicious fish and meat.
At this time, the officers were only concerned about their own food and had no time to care about the prisoners who were eating dry food.
"Boss, this vegetable is really tender and the soup is delicious!"
"It's all thanks to the Lu family, otherwise how could we eat such delicious food and drink such delicious soup?"
"We have to be more polite to the people of the Lu family in the future."
"And the Liu family, the two families are pretty close!"
Upon hearing this, Du Hangwu also scooped up some soup and drank it. The soup wrapped around the tip of his tongue and his eyes lit up. It was indeed delicious!
Just as he was eating the vegetables and drinking the soup, he felt as if there was something extra in his arms.
He took it out and looked at it in confusion. The soup in his mouth almost spit out, and he quickly stuffed the thing back into his arms!
Today's update is very punctual, hehehe!
