Meal Sweet Home: Farm Lady

Chapter 38

"This taste... the saltiness is just right, slightly spicy, a little sweet and sour, and slightly numb... Anyway, there are all kinds of wonderful flavors..." Xiangmei couldn't help picking up another piece of salmon slices with chopsticks, satisfied Close your eyes and taste again.

Xiangmei is right. Nanyan put a lot of thought into preparing this special sauce.Mix salt, garlic, sugar, pepper, Chinese prickly ash and other seasonings in a certain proportion, and mix in the taste of vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers.

Nan Yan looked at everyone with a smile and nodded in satisfaction, "With everyone's comments like this, I have a solid foundation in my heart. Thank you for your tasting!"

Over there, Yu Ranyue saw that they were eating and talking and laughing, she rolled her eyes angrily, and said in a low voice, "What's the big deal, I rely on some strange food to win people's hearts all day long."

Qi Yuhao pretended not to hear, took a sip of the seaweed egg soup in the bowl, and took another piece of marinated salmon and chewed it repeatedly in his mouth, "It tastes really good!"

"Yuhao, you..." Yu Ranyue didn't expect Qi Yuhao to give such a high evaluation, and she was secretly unhappy.

Of course, Qi Yuhao would only praise Nan Yan behind his back.

With many successful food performances, Nan Yan's confidence in her cooking skills has doubled.

After lunch, Nan Yan said to Xiang Mei: "Mei'er, in a few hours, I'll let you try my homemade kimchi, how about it?"

"Yes, yes, of course!"

Since the appearance of Nanyan, Xiangmei's biggest hobby is "eating".People live to have a mouth, and nothing can be treated badly to it.

This afternoon, the day passed peacefully as usual.Qi Yuhao went out, and Nan Yan went to the field to fertilize the fruits and vegetables.The orchard in that yard has been carefully cared for by Nan Yan for a period of time, and it has achieved some success, with melons and vines all over the place, showing new buds.

Since Yu Ranyue came to West Lake Village, her life was no different from that of a pig.Eating and sleeping all day, sleeping and eating, it is better to practice calligraphy and read books when you are in the general's mansion.It's okay to find a few servants as targets to practice swords and martial arts for her.

She kept saying that she came to Yangzhou City to play with Qi Yuhao, but Qi Yuhao didn't want to take her out at all, and let her stay at home with various excuses.

At the age of 15, she has traveled to many places with her father, so she has no interest in playing at all.She just wanted to stay by Qi Yuhao's side for a few more days, since she was 12 years old, she had no chance to get along with him day and night, so she missed him very much.

Ever since Qi Yuhao saw all of Nan Yan's body last night, Nan Yan was always shy when facing Qi Yuhao, but still pretended nothing happened.After all, Qi Yuhao was the first person to see her body no matter in the previous life or the present life, so how could there be no fluctuation in her heart?
Spending every day in this fulfilling working life, it seems that time flies by.It's just that when Nan Yan was working in the field, she said that she would go home to see how the kimchi was doing, and she never came back to the field again.

In a blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened. Although the summer sun was not too late to set, the afterglow was very strong.

Xiangmei and Aunt Zhang came back from the field with their hoe on their shoulders. Instead of going home, Xiangmei went to the next yard to look around.

"Sister Yan, Sister Yan, are you home?" Xiangmei put the hoe aside, and ran to the kitchen and storage room to look for it, but there was no one in sight, "Where is the agreed pickle? Sister Yan, where have you been?"

At this time, Qi Yuhao also just came back, seeing Xiangmei looking around in his yard, he stepped forward and asked, "Mei'er, what are you looking for?"

"Looking for Sister Yan, she's been back from the field for a while. It's already dinner time, why haven't I seen her cooking?" Xiangmei scratched her head in doubt.

With his hands behind his back, Qi Yuhao also looked around, feeling that the courtyard was indeed eerily quiet.

Every time I come back, I can see white smoke coming out of my chimney, and the aroma around the kitchen is overflowing, but this time the pot is deserted and lifeless.

"Where did she go this afternoon?" Qi Yuhao asked again.

"Just worked with us in the field, and then came back early." Xiangmei answered truthfully.

Qi Yuhao frowned slightly, could it be that he sneaked in while she was taking a bath last night, made her angry and ran away from home?Probably not, she was fine in the morning, and she didn't see anything unusual.

Thinking of this, he went straight to Yu Ranyue's room again, and Xiangmei hurriedly followed behind him.

Arriving at the door of Yu Ranyue's room, Qi Yuhao didn't go in directly, but said at the door: "Ran Yue, are you in the room?"

"Yes, I'm resting, come in!" Yu Ranyue responded positively.

Qi Yuhao pushed the door open and entered, and saw Yu Ranyue half lying on the bed.His expression was gloomy, but he deliberately concealed it.

"Little beggar, what are you doing here?" Seeing Xiangmei walking in behind Qi Yuhao, she was a little dissatisfied.

"How many times have I told you, don't call me a beggar! I came to see Sister Yan, not to see you." Xiangmei answered angrily with her head held high.

I saw Yu Ranyue rolled her eyes secretly, and said, "Just look for her if you're looking for her. What are you doing here? Could it be that I hid her?"

"It's possible!"

"you……"

"Shut up!" Qi Yuhao ordered, and the quarrel between the two stopped immediately when they met.He asked Yu Ranyue again, "Did you see Nan Yan come back this afternoon?"

"No, I've been sleeping in the house, so I don't even know." Yu Ranyue insisted.

"Brother Yuhao, I went to the storage room just now and found that sister Yan's things are still there. Where do you think she will go?" Xiangmei asked worriedly without doubting her.

That's right, it's late in the evening, and Nan Yan and other people in West Lake Village never meet face to face, where else can she go?

The more Qi Yuhao thought about it, the more something was wrong, he turned around and walked out of the room, looking around.Seeing this, Xiangmei also searched around the house, busy with her feet.Aunt Zhang's family saw that the two of them were looking for people everywhere, so they also called the four little men in the family to help them find them.

For a moment, Nan Yan's disappearance made everyone anxious, and Yu Ranyue seemed to be fine, like a living dead, lying on the wooden couch in the room, blinking her eyes, as if thinking about something.

As the sun set, every household lit up oil lamps, but Nan Yan was still nowhere to be found.

"Brother Yuhao, what should I do? Is something wrong with sister Yan?" Xiangmei was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, she didn't want to lose such a good sister.

"Brother Yuhao, this is the first time that sister Yan disappeared without even saying hello. Could something really happen..." Aunt Zhang reminded.

Up to now, no one has been found, and everyone's hearts are half-suspended.
