Chapter 12: Noodle Soup

Hua Jiujiu wanted to say that there was no need, but when she got up, she felt a wave of dizziness and stopped acting tough.

Her body was really too weak. She needed more nourishment.

Moreover, her family needed nourishment.

“Thank you.” Hua Jiujiu thought of the gnocchi soup that she was about to make and felt that she could change the base of the soup.

Just as she was about to prepare the pheasant, she thought of something and said to Lou Sijin, who was still standing at the door, “Don’t go yet. When the meal is ready, I’ll pack some for you.” From his expression, she knew that he had not eaten yet.

“Mm,” Lou Sijin replied expressionlessly.

However, his deep eyes were fixed on the busy figure in the kitchen.

Was it this woman who saved him when his Gu poison acted up just now?

But how was that possible?

She was just a peasant girl who knew nothing. How could she suppress the Gu poison in his body?

But if it wasn’t her, who suppressed the Gu poison?

Usually, when his Gu poison acted up, it would take several hours to suppress it. However, this time, it was quickly suppressed. It was also painless after the suppression.

Hua Jiujiu was so focused on the food that she naturally did not notice Lou Sijin’s gaze.

Meat!

She finally got to eat meat!

She was almost drooling!

She did not know if it was because of her memory or because of her body’s instincts. Even though she had just eaten meat not long before she transmigrated, she still felt that she had not eaten meat for a few years and was extremely hungry now.

Hua Jiujiu had been living alone for a long time, so she learned to cook well, though she was too busy with work to cook. Even so, she picked up the spatula and cooked skillfully.

Not long after, she was done. She carefully packed the fragrant dough in, not letting any soup spill out.

“I don’t have any extra bowls. Why don’t you just stand in front of the pot and eat?” Hua Jiujiu looked at Lou Sijin awkwardly.

“Mm,” Lou Sijin replied.

Only then did Hua Jiujiu carry the basket and prepare to leave. “You can put the pot aside after you’re done eating. I’ll come back later to wash it.”

“Mm,” Lou Sijin replied emotionlessly.

Hua Jiujiu did not mind and turned to leave.

On the way back, she did not meet anyone. They had probably all entered the house to rest.

After all, no one could bear to waste a candle. It was dark and there was nothing they could do, so they could only sleep early.

Hua Jiujiu looked at Second Sister and Third Sister, who were waiting for her at the door, and her heart softened.

“Why are you standing here so late at night? Hurry up and go in,” Hua Jiujiu chided.

Third Sister looked at the basket behind Hua Jiujiu.

She did not know if there was anything to eat inside, but she seemed to have smelled very fragrant meat.

Hua Jiujiu ruffled her two sisters’ hair. “Go wash your hands quickly and come in to eat.”

Their eyes instantly lit up. They ran to quickly wash their hands and followed Hua Jiujiu into the house.

Hua Jiujiu lit the only valuable candle in the room and took out the food from the basket.

Second Sister and Third Sister’s eyes widened when they saw the layer of oil and several pieces of meat floating on the noodle soup.

“Hurry up and eat,” Hua Jiujiu said with a smile.

“Sister, you eat first.” Second Sister and Third Sister swallowed at the same time, but they sensibly pushed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Hua Jiujiu.
