Eating Meat

This little woman was just an ordinary villager. Could it be that she could cure the Gu that even that person could not?

Hua Jiujiu looked at Lou Sijin's back and felt the aura of death.

Was this man in despair?

Hua Jiujiu was a little hesitant.

Should she add more spiritual spring water?

No, this man was an expert. He might notice something. If he kept staring at her, she would inevitably expose herself.

However, she couldn't just not care about this man's life at all…

Hua Jiujiu walked to the water vat that she had filled and drew out some spiritual spring water from the space.

Just a little.

Otherwise, she would really be caught.

She felt bad, but this was all she could do now.

After adding the spiritual spring water, Hua Jiujiu continued to cook. The spiritual spring water was still the same amount as before. This way, this man would not suspect anything.

Not long after, Hua Jiujiu finished preparing the fish soup. When she came out, she saw Lou Sijin roasting meat in the courtyard.

The smell was still very fragrant.

Even though Hua Jiujiu had just eaten meat in the afternoon, she was still craving it. After all, her body had not eaten meat in more than ten years.

"I put the fish soup in the pot," Hua Jiujiu swallowed and said.

"Okay." Lou Sijin continued to flip the roasted meat. The roasted meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Apart from roasting meat, he didn't have any other culinary skills.

"I'll also borrow your stove during this period of time. Don't worry, I won't use it for long. Moreover, I'll leave some food for you every time as a thank-you."

Lou Sijin saw that the roasted meat was almost done, so he picked it up.

He raised the roasted meat and handed it to Hua Jiujiu. "I don't know how to cook." The meaning was very simple. She could use the stove as she pleased, but she had to leave some food for him every time.

Hua Jiujiu looked at the roasted meat in front of him in a daze.

Was this man going to give her the roasted meat?

"I'll prepare the ingredients. Help me cook using them," Lou Sijin suggested.

"Alright," Hua Jiujiu replied.

It was just cooking for Lou Sijin alone, so it didn't take much time.

Lou Sijin brought the roasted meat closer. Hua Jiujiu asked in confusion, "Is this for me?"

Lou Sijin nodded.

Hua Jiujiu took it in surprise. "Thank you. It smells good!"

Her bright eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, just like what they saw last night.

For some reason, Lou Sijin was in a good mood.

However, his face was still tense. He sat back in front of the roasted meat and continued to roast another piece of meat.

Hua Jiujiu did not disturb him anymore and left with the roasted meat and fish soup.

On the way back, she thought that she had to hurry to the market and buy some rice and noodles. Otherwise, they'd be eating meat every time.

How could she grow up if she didn't eat staple foods like rice and noodles?

When they returned home, the old house's residents were already at the dining table. It was obvious that they did not intend to call them.

Hua Jiujiu went in and called her two sisters out, forcing themselves onto the table.

"Eat, eat, eat. You don't do anything and only know how to eat. Why don't you eat until you die?" Elder Madam Xu cursed as she filled the bowl with food.

For the person she liked, the rice was thicker, but for the person she didn't like, it could be said to be like watery porridge.

Hua Jiujiu's family was naturally given the worst rice, but there were also people who were not much different from them.

They were Third Brother Hua's two daughters.
