Chapter 316 Barbecue Practice
Zhou Mingqin carried Zhou Mingxiu into the room and asked San Ya her questions as soon as she saw her.
"Sana, why did Lord Qi send two sheep to our family? What does he mean by this?"
"I don't really understand it, but after thinking about it, I think he wants me to continue making delicious food for him. But I can't do it now. I can only wait until he's done."
"Yeah, that's right. I just saw those two sheep. They look good and plump. One of them even has a calf."
"And there are lambs? That's great. When the lambs are born, there will be goat milk to drink."
"That's the case, but this goat is a little different from the sheep we raise at home. It doesn't seem so docile, so it's hard for us to get close to it."
It would be a problem if you got hit by a sheep and got hurt.
"Now that you mention it, you really have to be careful. If you get hurt, you'll have to do the same as me."
She is now lying or sitting on the bed, her movements are very restricted, she can't do anything, she feels stuffy and uncomfortable all over.
"Haha, let's wait until grandma comes back. Master Qi said he wants to replenish your body, so he has to kill one anyway!"
Our family hasn't eaten mutton for a long time since winter.
Since Lord Qi has sent two, I'll kill one to satisfy my craving.
"I will follow the arrangements of my family. I will just wait to eat and eat whatever is given to me."
Zhou Mingqin held Zhou Mingxiu and sat in the room for a while, but the little guy didn't want to stay there anymore and started to make a fuss about going out.
So Zhou Mingshu was the only one left in the room.
The area on her waist was really sore, and if she wasn't careful, she would grimace in pain.
She adjusted herself into a comfortable position and thought back to what had just happened.
I really don't understand why Lord Qi gave her two sheep?
It can't be just for a bite to eat.
What is Lord Qi's status? What is her status? How could a high-ranking official go through so much trouble to send two sheep just for a bite of food?
Besides, if they really wanted a bite to eat, they should have sent the two sheep to the restaurant.
I thought about it over and over but couldn't figure it out, so I just gave up and took out the comic book from under the quilt and continued reading.
After Qi Rui and his group lost their sheep, they returned faster.
As soon as I arrived at my territory, I smelled the aroma of barbecue.
It's already baked! It's so fast.
"I'm happy today, so I'll go bake some too."
Qi Rui dismounted from the horse and threw the whip in his hand directly to Rufeng who was standing beside him.
Rufeng laughed foolishly, he was happy when his master was happy.
Although he didn't know what his master was so happy about, it was probably because he got rid of the pregnant ewe that was a bit troublesome.
Some small game, such as rabbits and pheasants, can be eaten after being roasted for such a long time.
When many soldiers saw the young general coming, they all made way for the good tanks!
Qi Rui randomly found an empty space and sat down. A plate of meat and a plate of dipping sauce were immediately brought to him.
The dipping sauce has a strong flavor and you can tell it’s from a restaurant as soon as you smell it.
He picked up a knife, cut off some meat, dipped it in the condiments and ate it. It tasted good, but the meat was a little overcooked.
After eating half a plate, he rolled up his sleeves and joined in the barbecue.
He had eaten roast duck and roast skewers at Old Zhou's house. Zhou Mingshu was very good at roasting meat. The meat was very tender and easy to chew. It was a real pleasure to eat.
Seeing the skewers in his hands that were either burnt black or raw, Qi Rui felt a little frustrated. He felt that Zhou Mingshu was even more capable. It seemed that he would have to go and learn from her some other time.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui's mood immediately improved.
He found another reason to look for her, hehehe.
After handing the unqualified skewers in his hand to Rufeng, he took a new skewer and continued practicing.
Rufeng had never eaten anything grilled by his master. It was a blessing to be able to eat it, so he would naturally eat whatever was given to him.
After baking many times, Qi Rui finally mastered some skills, and the things he baked looked pretty good. He enjoyed eating them with some dipping sauce.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Qi Rui patted Rufeng's shoulder.
"Of course, master, your cooking skills have improved visibly. It's delicious!" Rufeng laughed foolishly.
Qi Rui returned to the tent with the plate and dipping sauce, "When the mutton is roasted, bring some to me."
"Got it~" Rufeng was happy after eating, chatting and laughing with his brothers beside the campfire.
It was a rare moment for everyone to relax. The sky had already darkened, and the piles of warm yellow bonfires and the fragrant barbecue warmed people's hearts.
Qi Rui sat in the recliner with his legs crossed, holding meat in one hand and a book in the other, looking very leisurely.
Old Mrs. Zhou and her family packed up the restaurant and came back in a ox cart, bringing them a lot of food.
If there is an injured person at home, special treatment must be given.
"Sanya, this is the pork bone soup I made for you. Drink more to nourish your body and help your bones grow faster."
Old Mrs. Zhou brought over a pot, which was still hot to the touch.
"Okay, grandma, do the aunts have any too?"
"Yes, yes, you eat yours and don't worry about them. How can I lose anything to them?"
Old Mrs. Zhou smiled and went out. While her granddaughter was drinking soup, she went to get some other food.
Zhou Mingshu felt that the soup in the pot tasted good. The pork bones were stewed until soft and the soup was very clear. It did not taste greasy at all. She could drink two bowls of such soup.
But there was still too much soup in the pot for her to finish it. After all, she also needed to eat some steamed buns and other meals.
As soon as Mrs. Zhou entered the kitchen, Feng told her everything that had happened that afternoon.
Old Madam Zhou was also shocked. Why did Mr. Qi come to give her a goat?!
Just send it, why not send it to the restaurant?
The restaurant is closest to their barracks, so wouldn't it be most convenient to send the goods there?
"Master Qi is really thoughtful. He came over to see our San Ya even though he knew she was injured. He even brought two goats with him. He really thinks highly of us."
That's true. It shows great sincerity that a high-ranking official is willing to visit my humble home.
As for why we didn’t go to a restaurant, it might be because the injured person was lying at home, so it would be more appropriate to visit him at his home.
It makes perfect sense when you think about it this way!
After Mrs. Zhou brought the food to the table in the study, she went to the backyard to see the two goats.
Both goats have snow-white fur, are very tall and have hard horns. One of them has a belly as big as a drum, which shows that it is pregnant and about to give birth.
This gift touched the heart, and Mrs. Zhou was so happy that she was beaming with joy.
But what is more worrying is that the "natives" in the sheep shed are huddled in the corner, trembling with fear.
It's obvious that he was bullied by the two goats.
One sheep cannot beat two, and its size is not even as tall as the others. Old Mrs. Zhou smiled and moved the previous sheep to another straw shed, letting it stay alone for the time being.
Seeing such a good goat, she didn't want to kill it, but after all, it was sent by Lord Qi to nourish San Ya's body.
Then keep the pregnant one and kill the other one.
When the time comes, invite Lord Qi to come and eat mutton, and take this opportunity to thank him for his kindness.
