Joe's Farming

Ling Lie returned to Ueda Village at night.

At that time, Qiao Yu was teaching everyone how to make spicy hot pot.

Two tables were set up in the yard, and all the seasonings and cooked ingredients were placed on one table.

Qiao Yu mixed it for everyone one bowl at a time.

Then someone said, "Hey, isn't that Ling Lie? Why is he back now?"

Li Xin was waiting obediently beside Qiao Yu, wanting his brother to mix him a bowl of soup first.

After hearing this, he looked towards the mountain path and saw Ling Lie riding a horse alone.

Didn’t he go to save people?

Why did you come back alone?

Ling Lie did not go back to the villa directly, but stopped in front of the Gu family's yard.

Qiao Yu said calmly: "Li Xin, go and see what's going on?"

"Oh."

Li Xin did not refute and went obediently.

Ling Lie was somewhat flattered when he saw that the person who came to greet him was Li Xin.

Even though the two of them hadn't seen each other for just one day.

But because there was some ambiguity at the end, Li Xin now felt a little awkward when looking at him.

Li Xin walked forward slowly and asked, "You...are back?"

Ling Lie nodded: "Yeah, I'm back."

Li Xin looked behind him and confirmed that there was no one else before wondering, "Where's he?"

"what?"

Li Xin said a little embarrassedly: "Aren't you going there to rescue someone? Where is that person?"

Ling Lie looked away uncomfortably: "I didn't find him. Maybe he escaped on his own."

Li Xin didn't know what to say.

He is not the kind of man who is good at comforting others.

"Oh, you must feel really guilty about that."

Ling Lie looked at him in surprise. How did he know what I was thinking?

Ling Lie hurriedly led the horse that Zhang Quan lent him to Gu's stable and let the horse drink water and eat grass.

Li Xin accompanied him silently.

He must be a very important friend.

That's why you feel so guilty for not finding the person.

“I’m fine, but I didn’t expect that when I got there, the whole village would be empty.

I'm not sure if he escaped, if not, I..."

"Don't think so. From your description, he is a very smart and independent person. He must have taken advantage of the chaos to escape. But why is there no one in the village? Did someone escape and tell them that the bandits were captured in Taoyuan County?"

Ling Lie shook his head: "They probably sent someone out to find out because they saw that he didn't go back. I hope he's okay."

Seeing that everyone in Qingfeng Village had fled, Ling Lie realized there was no point in staying, so he told them the locations of some important warehouses and rode back on horseback.

"What are you doing in the yard?"

Ling Lie took a look and saw that there were quite a lot of people.

Li Xin then remembered that he hadn't eaten his spicy hot pot yet!

"Just tie your horse here. Hurry up, my brother is making something good for everyone."

Li Xin said this and ran back, and Ling Lie followed him shamelessly.

He is the chef of Lingyun Villa. If he has some new cooking methods, it wouldn't be too much for him to go over and learn how to cook them, right?

The boss and the second master will definitely not mind!

Sure enough, when Gu Feng saw Ling Lie, he only asked: "Are you back?"

Ling Lie nodded: "I'm back."

Gu Feng also nodded and stopped paying attention to him, concentrating on the spicy hot pot in his bowl.

Everything my husband makes is delicious!

Instead, the three little ones urged the two to sit down and eat together, because the spicy hot pot with sesame paste was really delicious.

Qiao Yu even directly blamed the two for being so slow and coming only now.

"The only thing missing is the two of you. Ling Lie, you're the chef, mix it for Li Xin yourself."

Qiao Yu pointed to two large bowls on another table.

Li Xin said aggrievedly: "Brother, he has never eaten spicy hot pot, how can he mix it?"

“Just add the condiments on the table according to your own preferences. The sesame paste is already prepared and contains salt. Don’t add too much at once.

The vegetables are ready for you, go to the kitchen to add the broth yourself."

Qiao Yu reminded.

Li Xin wanted to say something, but Ling Lie stopped her and said, "It's okay, I think I know how to do it."

Li Xin glanced at the ingredients in the bowl.

There were both meat and vegetables, and Ling Lie's portion was obviously larger than his own.

Ling Lie first picked up Li Xin's bowl, and put in red chili peppers, chopped green onions, chopped coriander, chopped garlic, sesame paste, and sesame oil in turn, then went to the kitchen to pour boiling broth on it.

Li Xin quickly mixed it with chopsticks and took a sip.

Mm, that’s the taste!

"Ling Lie, you are so amazing!"

Ling Lie showed his eight big white teeth: "As long as you like it."

Li Xin said "I like it" and added another spoonful of sesame paste and a handful of coriander.

Ling Lie kept Li Xin's preference in mind.

Qiao Yu prepared a lot of ingredients for this spicy hot pot, and even specially mixed a large bowl of it and sent it down the mountain for Xu Yuan and Xu Ning's family to taste.

Wang Jie and Wen Ge'er were also there, and Qiao Yu planned to let them pack their things and go back later.

The same goes for Li Li'niang.

Qiao Yu herself hadn't eaten this kind of spicy hot pot for a long time. After she was full, she told everyone that she and Gu Feng would be away from home for a few days.

The three little ones immediately put down their chopsticks and looked at Qiao Yu.

Gu Xiaoxue: "Little Daddy, what should we do?"

Gu Feng: "There are so many people at home, what should we do?"

Gu Xiaoxue pouted. Her father hadn't been so cruel for a long time.

Gu Xiaoyan stammered, "I also want to go to the capital city with my fathers. I haven't been there yet."

Qiao Yu was about to comfort him when she heard Gu Feng say calmly, "Be good, I'll take you guys with me next time."

Qiao Xing opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.

Qiao Yu:......

“Well, this time daddy is going to discuss business, and you still have to go to school, so next time you have a holiday, I will take you out to play.

We can go not only to the capital, but also to the south to spend the winter and see the sea."

Qiao Yu's words not only made the three little ones look envious, but Gu Feng also looked at him in surprise: "Qiao'er, are we still going to the south?"

"No?" Qiao Yu asked sincerely.

Gu Feng: "It's not impossible, but I have never been to the south, so I don't know if the road is safe."

Qiao Yu raised her chin and looked at Ling Lie: "What are you afraid of? We have a guard team, we will bring them along when the time comes."

Li Xin's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, brother, take me with you when the time comes! I want to go too!"

A rich second generation who doesn’t like traveling is not a good rich second generation!

Hongxiu was extremely envious: "If I wasn't pregnant, I would also want to go."

Gu Gang immediately comforted him: "If you want to go, I will take you and the baby with me when the baby is born."

Hongxiu nodded happily.

Only Ling Lie shook his head and said, "Boss, you should first understand the situation in the south before considering whether to go or not."

Qiao Yu asked nervously, "What do you mean?"

Ling Lie: "I heard from Lord Zhang that the sea in the south has not been peaceful and pirates are rampant, so fewer foreigners are coming by sea this year."
