Before Su Qing could speak, Xiao Qi warned Su Qing in the system,
“Pregnant women should eat less spicy food!”
■■You can eat it in moderation. How do you explain the sour and spicy woman?” Su Qing didn’t mind. It was okay to eat less. Xiao Qi was too nervous!
Xiaoying had worked so hard to roast mutton for her. She would be sad if she didn’t eat a bite.
“Then take a bite!”
Xiao Qi was still worried. Su Qing smiled and shook her head. This little gal was
a worrier.
“Sister-in-law, I’ll bring it to you now.”
Xiaoying pushed the door open and walked to the kitchen to return the mutton. She came back first to see if Sister-in-law was back. Otherwise, the mutton would turn cold after being roasted, and it wouldn’t taste good.
Su Qing sat on the stool and waited for her. Not long after, Xiaoying came back with two servant girls. The three of them were carrying trays. Xiaoying’s tray was filled with kebabs. The two servant girls behind her carried fried pancakes, mutton, and carrot soup.
“Sister-in-law, let me teach you how to eat it.”
Xiaoying placed the meat skewers on the table and took a fried pancake from the tray carried by the servant girl. She placed two skewers of mutton on the fried pancake and said to Su Qing with a smile,
“Sister-in-law, look.”
After Xiaoying finished speaking, she pressed the fried pancake into the meat skewer and rolled the mutton. She left all of it in the fried pancake and took out two skewers!
“It’s so fragrant to eat wrapped like this.”
Xiaoying said impatiently to Su Qing after she finished her demonstration. Her bright eyes looked at her sister-in-law expectantly. Her gaze almost said,
■Sister-in-law is going to praise me.’
“… Very good.”
When Su Qing saw Xiaoying’s way of eating, she remembered that the people in Xinjiang liked to wrap mutton skewers with naang and eat them. Who did Xiaoying learn this from?
“I was hungry when making pancakes today, so I ate two skewers of mutton and wrapped them in pancakes. It was simply too delicious.’
As Xiaoying spoke, she handed the meat and pancake she had wrapped to Su
Qing.
“Sister-in-law, try it.”
“Alright.”
Su Qing smiled and took a bite of the pancake. The aroma of the roasted mutton and the pancake blended cleverly. It was not greasy but delicious. The chili was not particularly spicy. It was the spicy aroma of being roasted over a charcoal fire. The pancake neutralized the spiciness and tasted just right. Su Qing’s taste buds were immediately opened, and she began to eat in large mouthfuls.
“Sister-in-law, is it delicious?”
Xiaoying blinked her big eyes as she watched Su Qing eat the meat bun. Seeing her sister-in-law eating so happily, she couldn’t wait to ask.
“Delicious.”
Su Qing smiled and nodded. In the blink of an eye, she had finished a pancake, and it was just the bottom!
“Master, you can drink mutton soup. Eat less mutton skewers. It’s not sanitary and can cause cancer.”
Xiao Qi’s muttering rang out again. Su Qing looked at the mutton soup and saw it was not bad. It was obvious that the white soup had been boiled for a long time. It was good as long as the heat reached the taste of the soup. She took the bowl that Xiaoying handed over and took a sip. There was no smell of mutton. Xiaoying’s cooking skills had significantly improved!
Could it be that this girl was learning how to cook their country’s food for Yelu Chun? These two dishes were their favorites.
“We’re returning to Jings.h.i.+ Dao tomorrow, so sleep early tonight.” Su Qing felt sleepy after eating and drinking. She yawned as she reminded Xiaoying. It was strange that she didn’t have such a big reaction, even when pregnant. Now, she had the reaction of a pregnant woman.
“Alright.”
Xiaoying’s face turned red when she thought about how the envoy from Tartan had come to propose marriage to her grandfather.
Su Qing returned to her room and took a shower. After that, she lay on the bed and fell asleep. She had a dream. She dreamed that the Child-endowing Guanyin was carrying two fat children to her!
The two chubby babies were precisely the same as the children Su Qing had imagined. They had big eyes and curved smiles. They opened their arms when they saw Su Qing and called out to her. When Su Qing saw such cute babies, she hurriedly hugged them. Suddenly, she woke up.
Su Qing opened her eyes and thought of the two children in her dream. She couldn’t help but rub her stomach.
“Is it you guys? You’re here to meet Mom?”
The following day, Su Qing woke up early as usual. She had to return to Jings.h.i.+ Dao today. She had to leave after breakfast, or she would delay her journey. Su Qing got up and got dressed. She went to call Xiaoying. She realized that Xiaoying had woken up earlier than her. She didn’t know what she was doing and wasn’t in the house.
Su Qing thought Xiaoying had gone to cook for her, so she ordered the servant girl to bring her hot water to wash up.
In ancient times, copper basins were used, and the water was clear when poured into the basin. The temperature of the water adjusted by the servant girl was just right, so Su Qing washed with water.
She didn’t need the help of a servant girl to comb her hair. After was.h.i.+ng her face, she simply tied her hair into a bun and put it on with a jade hairpin.
The servant girl had wanted to help her comb her hair into a beautiful bun several times, but she always felt that the way Madam combed her hair was like that of a Daoist nun. Married women had to do a high bun, and they knew many kinds of hairstyles, such as the sideburns style, the flying fairy style, the cloud bun, and so on. They were all gorgeous hairstyles.
These were all compulsory lessons for high-cla.s.s maids. Knowing that they had to serve the Young Master’s wife, they all worked hard to make the Young Master’s wife look n.o.ble and beautiful. In the end, they didn’t even use the bun they learned. The Young Master’s wife liked this simple hairstyle.
Su Qing didn’t know what these maidservants were thinking. After was.h.i.+ng up, she ordered them to bring the food up. Her stomach grumbled when she woke up early in the morning. She didn’t want the child in her stomach to starve. “Prepare more jerky and put the pastries in my carriage.
Su Qing Stopped the servant girl and ordered her to prepare food to put in the carriage. At this time, Xiao Qi spoke,
“Master, leave the food for the journey to Xiao Qi. I have already prepared the recipe. I guarantee that Master will eat happily and nutritiously!” Su Qing heard Xiao Qi’s voice. Why did it sound like an advertis.e.m.e.nt? However, with Xiao Qi’s good logistics, they wouldn’t have to starve on the road. However, they had to prepare more food and put it in the system. Xiao Qi looked at the small vegetable garden that she planted and smiled. Fortunately, she had nothing to do and planted these vegetables. She originally wanted to give her Master a surprise for the new year. She had long known that her Master wanted to eat vegetables.
The winter in the north was long and cold. Other than the cabbages and carrots, there were also pickled vegetables and pickles! She couldn’t eat fresh vegetables.
Even Su Qing couldn’t eat it. She could only make some tofu to satisfy her craving.
Xiao Qi frowned. There was no fruit. Master had to eat more fruits. Sigh, she had failed her duty. Why didn’t she prepare fruits earlier?
Traveling in winter was slow. Usually, they would reach Xiao Qi in two days, but in this snowy land, they would need three to four days. She felt sorry for her Master!
Su Qing didn’t know what Xiao Qi was thinking. After was.h.i.+ng up, she asked the servant girl,
“Have you seen Xiaoying?”
“Young Madam, Miss Xiaoying went out early in the morning.
“She didn’t say where she was going?”
Su Qing was slightly stunned. They were about to leave, so why did Xiaoying go out?
“She didn’t say.”
The servant girl shook her head. It was not their place to ask where their Master went.
“Alright, you may leave!”
Su Qing did not seem to have asked anything. Thinking Xiaoying might have gone out to buy something, she did not take it to heart. The carriage was already set up, and the food and gifts were also loaded. It was already the agreed time to leave, and Xiaoying had not returned. Su Qing was only worried..
