Gu Qingyao smiled and went to prepare lunch.

The chicken would need a jar to boil. Chen Goudan had one that was very clean. They usually used it to boil water.

Mo Beihan brought an iron pot. That was a rare thing. Only Mo Beihan had the ability to have iron pots and bring out one in the nearby brigades.

The Gu family also had such capabilities. Gu Qingyao’s brothers all had stable jobs and income. However, as the past landlord family, the Gu family must keep a low profile.

Mo Beihan was different as he was not limited by identity. Everyone knew that he was living a good life outside.

Lunch was simple but Gu Qingyao still tried to make it more delicious. She could only use the simplest ingredients to prevent catching people’s attention.

She used the jar to boil chicken soup. Besides seasoning, she added mushroom and wild vegetables that everyone was familiar with. The iron pot was used to make flat cakes. Then she fried a large serving of pickled cowpea.

It helped to increase appetite.

Garlic and chili were added into the cowpea. One could smell the spicy level when she was frying the cowpea, but it was really appetizing.

The fragrance of the chicken soup spread out. The children all swallowed their saliva upon smelling the fragrance.

The chicken soup was cooked.

“Lunch is ready. Come over,” Gu Qingyao shouted.

The few children immediately threw away the things in their hands and ran over. They could not resist the temptation of the food anymore.

Gu Qingyao smiled and looked at the children. She passed them one bowl of chicken soup each. Their faces were filled with satisfaction as they were drinking the soup.

Wang Qingshan took a sip and sighed, “Taste is so good!”
