Deer seeks fairyland

Chapter 124

There were not many customers in the Tangshui shop, so the two of them were not so much helping in the shop as they were chatting with Granny Qu.

It wasn't until the sun set that Liu Xiaolu reluctantly bid farewell to Granny Qu, and returned to the Wanxiang Pavilion with Luo Lin.

Hu Yizhi had been waiting in the Vientiane Pavilion for a long time, and when he saw Liu Xiaolu come back, he directly pulled her into the carriage at the door.

When the two returned to Yuchuan in the carriage, it was already dark.

"Oops, Xiaoqing!"

Walking to the west courtyard, Liu Xiaolu suddenly thought of Xiaoqing at home, hurriedly lifted the hem of his clothes with both hands, and trotted to the residence.

Xiaoqing is already a foot and a half long now, it would be inconvenient to take it out with her, and she might scare the mortals in Zongyuan City if she let it out.

Therefore, the two did not take Xiaoqing with them when they went out in the morning, but left it at home.

After staying in Zongyuan City for a whole day before returning, I'm afraid Xiaoqing was starved to death.

In desperation, Liu Xiaolu's light body art spirit fox stepped forward, swayed his body, and after a few breaths, he arrived at the gate of the courtyard where they lived.

"Xiaoqing?" Liu Xiaolu opened the door and walked into the yard, calling out.

After a while, a long green snake slowly swam out of the grass, raised its pointed triangular head, looked at Liu Xiaolu who was in a hurry, and said via voice transmission, "What's the matter with you?"

Liu Xiaolu was a little puzzled, the green snake in front of him had a calm demeanor, but it was not at all like the usual way when he was hungry and would bark his teeth and grab food from her.

"Are you hungry, have you eaten today?"

"I just ate something during the day, and I'm hungry now, do you want to prepare dinner for Gu?" Upon hearing the food, Xiaoqing immediately blinked her eyes and transmitted the voice.

"Have you eaten during the day? What did you eat during the day?" Liu Xiaolu couldn't help asking in wonder.

Xiaoqing turned her head and slid into the grass just now, and soon got out again, with a small earthen pot wrapped around her tail.

Liu Xiaolu took two steps forward to take the small earthen jar and saw that the lid on the jar was gone, and the inside was empty, only the fishy smell coming from the jar showed the identity of the original contents.

"Where did you get the fish?" Seeing this, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help being even more curious.

Xiaoqing shook her head and said triumphantly, "It's not a fish, it's a dried fish, and it's a gift from Gu's new younger brother."

Liu Xiaolu twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, and said, "Who is it, no, which beast blindly recognizes you as the boss?"

"Hiss." Xiaoqing spat out the pink letter in dissatisfaction, and said angrily, "I'm a lonely beast, what's wrong with accepting a little brother?"

"Okay, as long as you're happy, Brother Divine Beast." Liu Xiaolu rolled his eyes helplessly, and didn't bother to care about which unlucky guy Xiaoqing fooled.

It's already past the meal time, and the clan is afraid that there will be no food delivery.There is a small kitchen in the courtyard, but there are no ingredients for cooking at home.

Just as Liu Xiaolu frowned and thought, Hu Yizhi also walked into the courtyard gate from the outside.

Seeing Hu Yizhi, an idea flashed in Liu Xiaolu's mind, and he suddenly thought of a good idea, and said with a smile, "Father, are you hungry? I'll treat you to a roasted bamboo rat."

Hu Yizhi was taken aback when he heard the words, the bamboo rat was for Xiaoqing to eat, how could humans eat it?
Xiaoqing next to her even said in a voice transmission with a look of disgust, "I don't want to eat this kind of thing!"

"Hey, you two just wait."

Liu Xiaolu waved his hand, and walked to a corner of the yard on his own.

She has already cleaned up all the weeds in this area, and there is a waist-high iron cage in the corner, covered with grass and carrots, and seven or eight huge gray bamboo rats are locked in the cage.

Roasted bamboo rat is a good thing. The skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and it tastes better than pork.

Liu Xiaolu pouted, and was about to open the cage to catch two bamboo rats and come out to beat the teeth.

Wait, one two three four five...eight.

Liu Xiaolu's eyes narrowed, and he said to Xiaoqing who was following him via voice transmission, "Xiaoqing, I remember that there were twelve bamboo rats in the cage, why are there only eight left now?"

Xiaoqing tilted her head, and said indifferently through voice transmission, "Today, Gu's little brother said he wanted it, so Gu gave him a few."

Another dried fish, another bamboo mouse, what kind of little brother did Xiaoqing fool.

Looking at Xiaoqing suspiciously, Liu Xiaolu closed the cage, picked up a two-pound bamboo rat and walked towards the kitchen.

……

Half an hour later, the kitchen gradually smelled the aroma of barbecue.

Soon, Liu Xiaolu was seen coming out of the kitchen with a plate of golden-yellow pieces of meat, and he still greeted, "Father, Xiaoqing, come and have a taste."

Hu Yizhi hesitated for a while, obviously unwilling, but he couldn't bear to win Liu Xiaolu's heart, so he followed her into the main room with a frown.

"Hmph, I wouldn't eat this kind of food even if I'm alone!" Xiaoqing didn't even look at it, but turned her head and swam up to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard.

Liu Xiaolu handed Hu Yizhi a pair of bamboo chopsticks, sat down opposite him again, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, there is still some salt in the kitchen. Father, please taste it, the meat will not taste good when it gets cold."

The bamboo rat meat on the porcelain plate was cut into several pieces by Liu Xiaolu, its original shape could no longer be seen, and the skin became golden after being baked, but it was no different from ordinary barbecued meat.

Looking at Liu Xiaolu's expectant eyes, Hu Yizhi had to carefully pick up a piece of bamboo rat meat and put it into his mouth.

But as soon as he chewed it twice, the expression on his face that was originally somewhat reluctant suddenly changed.

The taste of this meat was actually much more delicious than he had imagined. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the meat was smooth. It tasted a bit like roast suckling pig, but it had a special fresh and sweet taste.

"Is this really a bamboo rat? I didn't expect that although this thing looks ugly, it tastes so delicious!" Hu Yizhi couldn't help but said after swallowing the piece of meat in his mouth.

"Of course, it's just that I didn't find any other condiments at home. When someone from the Tomorrow Clan comes to deliver the meal, let him ask for some. It will taste better next time." Seeing Hu Yizhi's reaction like this, Liu Xiaolu felt a little proud replied.

Xiaoqing on the sweet-scented osmanthus tree poked out a pointed triangular head from among the branches, looked in the direction of the main room with some curiosity, and muttered, "Is the meat of that thing really edible?"

No matter what Xiaoqing thought, the two people in the room had already moved their chopsticks at this moment, and the plate of roasted bamboo rats was quickly eaten up by the two of them.

"It smells pretty good..." Xiaoqing spit out the letter, and looked at the plate of barbecue on the table hesitantly again.

Xiaoqing, who is a monster, has excellent eyesight. This place is only a few feet away from the house, and she can clearly see at a glance that there are only the last one or two pieces of meat left on the plate, while the two people at the table are full of unsatisfactory expressions. look.

Without time to think about it, Xiaoqing jumped down from the tree with a whoosh, and said to Liu Xiaolu in the room, "You guys leave a piece for Gu!!"
