”It's okay.” Feeling the sweat on his forehead, Chu Yu wiped it off his face, and the dirt on his hands immediately flew to his face, his little face was pitch black, but he was completely unaware of it.
Aunt Chen lowered his head and busied himself cutting the eggplant, naturally he did not see Chu Yu's face. After cutting the eggplant open, he cut a cut on each piece and stuffed the meat into the eggplant, quickly filling it up.
”Aunt Chen, should we continue releasing him?” When the firewood was burnt to the end, Chu Yu pulled away a bunch of weeds behind him and took out a piece of firewood.
Aunt Chen opened the lid of the wok and took a look inside, grabbing a handful of grass behind Chu Yu and placing it at her feet: ”You don't need to put any firewood, just burn some weeds.”
When he finished speaking, he saw the dark gray cheeks of Chu Yu and laughed out loud, ”Miss Chu, hurry up and wash your face.”
Chu Yu was startled for a moment, she reacted and immediately walked towards the patio outside the kitchen, a bucket of water was poured out, she squatted down and saw the reflection of her black face on the water, she could not help but laugh.
Dinner, four dishes and one soup, one full table.
”Come, come, come. Be careful …” Aunt Chen carried the last dish to the table and sat down, wiping his hands.
Xiang Qicheng could not help but speak out, ”Aunt Chen, why are you cooking so many dishes? I won't be able to finish it in a while. ” Every time he came to this place, it would be filled with a huge table full of dishes. The Aunt Chen would also serve the morning lunch the next day with leftovers that he could not finish.
”Hey, it's rare for you and Miss Chu to come here. Besides, I can't finish watching over this garden by myself …” She smiled as she received the rice that Xiang Qicheng had prepared. It had been a long time since this house was so lively, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
”This is Miss Chu's first time here, quickly try the eggplant I made. This is what young master loved to eat when he was young.” Aunt Chen picked up an eggplant and placed it into Chu Yu's bowl, his eyes filled with pride and anticipation.
She had handed over most of her life to the Xiang Family, spending most of her time in this kitchen. Naturally, she had sufficient energy and time to cook enough dishes, and this stewed eggplant was one of the dishes she was most proud of.
Chu Yu picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed it in his mouth, then nodded his head. The eggplant was mixed with the meat bun, the seasonings had a very good effect, it was an extremely delicious dish.
”I may have to eat two bowls of rice.” Chu Yu mischievously stuck out his tongue, causing the Aunt Chen to burst into laughter.
The estrangement between the two of them had been resolved considerably in the kitchen, and now that they were even more intimate, Xiang Qicheng was momentarily at a loss.
After dinner, cicadas chirped in the courtyard, and Chu Yu and Xiang Qicheng turned their bodies in Old Mistress Xiang's room for her to come out.
”Where did the Aunt Chen go …” Xiang Qicheng looked around the house, looking for the figure of Aunt Chen.
They were going to return to Anlan City, so they had to greet the Aunt Chen, but they couldn't see him at this time.
”I think I saw her go to the garden just now.” Chu Yu pointed in the direction of the back door, where there was indeed a dim light shining from the garden.
The two of them stepped out of the back door. When Chu Yu raised his head and saw the stars in the sky, he couldn't help but cry out.
This was something that could not be seen in the Anlan City. Not to mention the stars that filled the sky, it would even take a long time to find even one.
