“l don’t know how I gave birth to such an active baby,” Yu Hongyan said with a smile.

Liu Guixia and Li Hehua were amused by that comment.

Pei Fufu pursed her lips and smiled. To her, Hongyan was so funny.

Then, Li Hehua and Pei Fufu helped to skewer the mutton skewers.

After the mutton skewers were done, they started to burn the charcoal. After the charcoal was burned, they placed the mutton skewers on the iron net to roast them. They had to constantly flip them to make sure they didn’t burn on their sides.

Jiang Yue skewered a lot of corn, onions, eggplants, green peppers, prawns, and other things. These could all be roasted and eaten.

Liu Guixia was afraid that someone at home would not be used to barbecue food, so she went into the kitchen with Yu Hongyan and cooked some extra food.

Xue Dafu, Xue Yifu, and Xue Erfu came back and helped to continue cooking the meat on the iron net.

Not only was there a table in the courtyard, but there were also many stools around the fire and a bamboo mat on the floor. When the sky was about to turn dark and mosquitoes were flying around, he even burned a pile of wormwood beside the fire to repel mosquitoes.

The lanterns in the corridor were lit, so the courtyard could be seen clearly.

There was no need to deliberately light the lanterns in the courtyard.

Their relatives came and found it interesting. How could farmers do this? They watched as Dafu, Yifu, and Erfu flipped through the sticks of meat that were being roasted on the iron net.

A large seedless watermelon that had been cut into many small pieces was currently being chilled. There were also other fruit platters on the table, such as black grapes, red grapes, blueberries, strawberries, and so on.

There was also iced sour plum juice. Whoever wanted to drink it could make themselves a bowl. There was ice in the basin to chill it.

Xue Sifu had heard that there was going to be a barbecue at home today, so he came back home. He came back just in time. Some mutton skewers were cooked, and Jiang Yue sprinkled c.u.min powder to season it. Then, she flipped the mutton skewers a few times. After roasting them with charcoal, they started to have a fragrant smell. Then, she took them off the iron net and placed them on a plate at the side.

“It smells so good.” Everyone sniffed the air and smiled.

“Why isn’t Master Gu Jin and Qi Yin here yet?” Xue Dafu asked.

“l don’t know. I’ll go and take a look,” said Liu Guixia. As she spoke, she took off her ap.r.o.n and went to look for them.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other. They felt that Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin weren’t the type of people who would be late. They must have been held up by something. Xue Yan said, “Mother, Jiang Yue, and I should go instead.

You have a lot to do here.’

Xue Sifu was a smart person, so he could also tell that something was up. He chimed in, “That’s right, Mother. Just let Xue Yan and Jiang Yue go. Let’s continue roasting meat here. There’s still so much to roast.”

“Alright, alright.” Liu Guixia laughed.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan glanced gratefully at Sifu before leaving the courtyard and going to the old house.

However, before they reached the old house, they only saw Qiyin making her way here.

It just so happened that the sky had turned dark. There were very few people walking around in the village at this time, and there was no one else on the road. Qi Yin once again became Shao Zhongxi’s messenger. She lowered her voice and said to Xue Yan and Jiang Yue, “Your Highness, the Empress Dowager’s people were here. She asked His Highness to return to the capital, but she didn’t say why he had to go back.”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other, not knowing why Empress Dowager Yunzi had suddenly asked Shao Zhongxi to return.

Immediately after, Xue Yan spoke up, “There must be something important happening I suppose. It would be best if you went with him. Jiang Yue and I will tell our family that you are both busy.”

“He said it would take at least eight days before he returns..”
