Lu Ze didn’t go too deep into the mountain today. With a few men from Mrs. Luo’s family following, he led them on the mountain path opposite the soldiers. There were fewer people, so there was naturally less trouble and they returned with a full load.
Lu Ze gave most of the prey to Mrs. Luo and the others. Anyway, there were still a few days left. He could just make a trip alone if he needed more.
Lu Ze told Lin Suisui about going up the mountain today. Lin Suisui also told him the news that the rations had arrived.
Pei Qian had also arranged for Qian He to tell her to boil chicken soup.
“Mr. Pei has spoken. Now that we’re under his command, let’s endure it for the time being.” Seeing that Lu Ze didn’t reply, Lin Suisui thought for a moment and reached out to tug at the corner of his shirt. She advised him in a low voice, “Anyway, when we reach the base, he’ll go back and report. We won’t see him anymore! Besides, he didn’t come empty-handed.
A few skins were delivered, along with pheasants and yellow sheep.
I’ll just treat it as payback!”
Knowing that Lin Suisui was worried about him, Lu Ze turned around and looked down at the concerned girl. He smiled and comforted her calmly, “I know what’s important. It’s fine.”
If Lu Ze said that it was fine, then he really wasn’t just coaxing Lin Suisui.
He was clearly better at roasting meat than Lin Suisui. Lin Suisui thought that they would roast yellow sheep at night, so she went out early to find some wild vegetables and condiments that could be used for seasoning. Lu Ze directly placed the washed and peeled yellow sheep that Qian He had sent over on the grill and began to prepare for dinner.
When Pei Qian brought the Du brothers over, Lu Ze had just turned over the roasted lamb.
Qian He brought two servants and sent over a few jars of good wine. Without saying anything, Qian He stood by the ox cart and bowed, then lifted the wind curtain to let Pei Qian and Du Yuanruo in.
Seeing the unfamiliar face that suddenly came in, Lin Suisui was obviously a little taken aback, but she only showed a little surprise and didn’t lose her composure.
Lu Ze was in front. He and Lin Suisui, who had half her body blocked by him, was about to bow to Pei Qian and the Du family. Unexpectedly, Pei Qian was a step faster than them. Before they could bow, he stopped them. “It’s fine. It’s not a big deal! We’re considered acquaintances. Although the food prepared by my people tastes good, it’s quite boring to eat the same thing everyday!
He had been thinking about Madam Liu’s chicken soup after tasting it.
“An esteemed guest happened to come today, so I brought him along. Do you mind?!”
Lu Ze met Pei Qian’s smiling face. His expression was still as impassive as ever. “Mr. Pei, please go ahead.”
Du Yuanruo raised his eyebrows in disdain. Looking at the simple decorations beside the bonfire, he felt that Pei Qian was deliberately screwing with them.
He was about to scold him when his brother glanced at him and his heart skipped a beat. He was so frightened that he almost fainted.
“I mean, where should we sit?!” Du Yuanruo, who had recovered, no longer had the courage to complain. He shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice, “We can’t sit on the ground, right?!”
Before Du Yuanruo could finish speaking, Qian He, who was guarding at the side, had already brought people over. He sent in a few folding stools and bowed behind these guests. Without saying anything, he hurriedly retreated.
“Your roasting method looks a little familiar.” Du Yuanyi sat down beside Pei Qian and stared at Lu Ze, who was roasting mutton, for a long time before saying with a smile, “I’ve seen it in the army before!”
“I’m a hunter. Speaking of which, my master taught me how to roast meat.” Lu Ze didn’t stop what he was doing. He pretended not to discern that Du Yuanyi was probing. “My master used to be in the army, but after returning to the countryside, he hunted for a living.
He told me that the reason the army doesn’t split mutton in half is that no one knows when the next battle will be fought. Therefore, if the entire mutton is roasted, even if there isn’t enough time to finish roasting it, we only need to put it aside and come back to grill it. The meat inside will still be delicious.”
Lu Ze’s explanation was reasonable. Du Yuanyi glanced at him and didn’t say anything else. However, when he saw Pei Qian take out his golden dagger, his expression changed slightly.
“A man should not cook. Mr. Pei, stop!”
It wasn’t the first time Du Yuanyi had interacted with Pei Qian. Therefore, he knew at least 30% to 40% of his preferences.
This dagger of his…
Lu Ze could tell that Pei Qian was eager to try. He took the short knife beside him and handed it to Pei Qian. Pei Qian’s eyes flashed with disdain, but he didn’t refuse. He reached out and took the short knife, then placed the roasted mutton into the silver plate that Qian He had sent over previously.
Du Yuanyi smiled and turned to look at Lin Suisui, who was watching the soup being stewed on the other side. “Other than sending over the rations, I came this time to thank you for saving my brother.”
Lin Suisui was slightly stunned. She didn’t expect that she would be called on even though she had already hid in a corner.
“You’re welcome. She was just following orders.” Lu Ze didn’t intend to let Lin Suisui get involved, so before she could speak, he had already spoken up for her.
Du Yuanyi seemed to have said it casually. Seeing that Lu Ze responded, he didn’t harp on it anymore. Instead, he changed the topic and started chatting with Pei Qian, who was beside him.
Seeing that the chicken soup in the soup jar was almost ready, Lin Suisui stood up. She walked to the door and gave instructions to Qian He before taking the opportunity to leave.
She didn’t go far. She went to Mrs. Luo’s house, which wasn’t far away.
Mrs. Luo and the others had long noticed the commotion there, but since the higher-ups didn’t say anything, they didn’t have the courage to go over and ask. Now that Lin Suisui had arrived safely, Mrs. Luo was relieved.
She reached out and pulled Lin Suisui to sit beside the bonfire. Then, she pulled a blanket from the side to drape over Lin Suisui’s shoulders. Then, she lowered her voice and asked, “Are you alright?!”
