Chapter 614: Stalking Shao Liulang
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The meal included four dishes with one soup. It included bean roast pork, yuba pork belly, green pepper chicken slices, scallion fried egg, and cabbage vermicelli soup.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were not special guests, so the dishes were not well made.
But the ingredients were fresh and ecological, so the food was not that bad when cooked in a big pot.
The couple left after lunch.
They were going to buy some stuff in town for the rooster and muntjac that Qi had hunted. They decided to buy some fresh meat to take home.
Originally, Qiao Xuan planned to kill two fat hens that day to make salt-baked chicken and crispy chicken, but she could leave that for later.
The two of them bought two knuckles, a piece of pork belly, two tube bones, a pair of pork belly, and a pig heart in the market. They saw fresh mutton for sale and bought a portion of lamb chops.
For dinner, half of the lamb chops would be made into sauce, and half would be stewed with fresh mushrooms. A portion of twice-cooked pork would be fried. Pork belly and pig heart would be marinated with spices, and could be eaten anytime during the next two days.
The knuckles would be put next to the spring water at night to keep it cold, and stewed with yam the next day. Half of it would be used to make a sweet and sour dish.
The bone would be used to make porridge at noon, with various mushrooms diced, fresh small river prawns, sprinkled with a handful of shallots. It would be delicious and fragrant.
When they finished buying the meat, they were about to fetch the donkey cart when they suddenly saw Shao Liulang heading towards the tea house. Before he went in, he even adjusted his clothes, and stood up straight. Then, he walked forward in confidence.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan exchanged a look at each other, very surprised.
“Who is he going to meet? So neat and happy? Want to take a look?”
Qiao Xuan was very curious.
Shao Liulang was always arrogant. She had never seen him looking so excited and proud.
Shao Yunduan thought for a while. “We should go and take a look.”
“As for this stuff…
They left the meat at the pastry store where they often bought stuff from. Then, they went into the tea house.
Shao Yunduan soon got to know from the waiter which room Shao Liulang went into by giving him some money.
They went into the room next to it, and held their breath, eavesdropping blatantly.
The soundproofing was really bad.
Anyways, in this town, there were no private talks. They were here to drink tea in a silent place, not here to pry on others’ secrets. So, they did not care if others heard them.
Hearing that it was a young woman’s laughter, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were both very surprised.
What was going on?
Soon, the woman was trying to ask Shao Liulang about Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, as well as about the first section of the family. Their hearts sank and they started to concentrate on the conversation.
Qiao Xuan’s eyes brightened after she listened for a while. She approached
Shao Yunduan. “l got it. That is Zhao Ming, the lady from the Zhao Family, who is in a good relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Wei!”
As Qiao Xuan’s warm breath floated over his ears and cheeks, Shao Yunduan could not help but blush.
He felt a little distracted.
He understood that he should not have this kind of reaction, so he pressed down the urge and leaned a bit backward.. “Are you sure?”
