226 The Whole Family

The small fish were very fresh. They were wrapped in flour and deep-fried, stirred with chilis and ginger slices. They were the best to eat like this.

When Shao Yunduan returned, he brought pork belly, pork ribs, cheese bones, and a dozen chickens and ducks.

Ms. Fang put the chickens and ducks into the cage, since they were not bred by the family, the chicken might run away. But the ducks would always linger nearby.

For dinner, they stewed soup with two cheese bones, soybeans, and Chinese yam, marinated spare ribs and fried, stir-fried pork loin and loofah, deep-fried pork belly, saving them for the next day.

There were wolfberry buds in the floral fields, so some were picked and fried. The bitter gourd on the fence had also grown, and they made another dish of fried bitter gourd with sliced meat.

When the dishes were presented at the table, the whole family was drooling just with the smell. Shao Sanlang could not help but sniff deeply, as he said emotionally, “Haven’t eaten meat for a long time, now it is here again!”

Yang Xiaoni smiled and her eyes were sparkling. She was greedy for meat as much as he was.

Seeing the table full of dishes, Eldest Uncle opened his mouth and closed again.

He thought that Qiao Xuan used her own money to buy the vegetables, and he could not possibly tell her to save money, since she was willing to pay.

Also, she would not listen to him either.

The whole family had become so fascinated with meat, after eating the dishes made by Qiao Xuan.

They seemed to suffer deeply, when they ran out of meat after a few days.

The pork from the pigs raised by the farmers were very tasty. Qiao Xuan was drooling for the meat too. She had some ribs and drank a bowl of bone soup.

The shrimps were so fresh and tasty, and they were all satisfied by what they had just eaten.

They were worried that the shrimp would have a weird taste, but after they had a bite, everyone found it so fresh, especially Shao Junyan and Shao Qing who loved it deeply.

Qiao Xuan started to miss the dish made of tomato with shrimps.

Her tomatoes were already growing so tall. She decided to make them bloom in a couple of days.

The roses were not growing so much, but pomegranate flowers would bloom too, since the buds were ready.

Qiao Xuan made a count of the lipsticks. The number had already reached to 1,000. They had booked the tubes, so they could slow down at this stage.

They were waiting for Yuezheng Xiao to fetch the goods, and the tubes to arrive, before starting to work on it again.

She used her superpower to make the pomegranate flowers bloom slower than expected.

It was summertime, and the weeds were growing crazily.

Especially when the barren mountains were surrounding the floral field, and the grass seeds were everywhere in the field. They were burnt first, but the weeds just would not go away.

So, Qiao Xuan hired Ms. Xu and Yang Xiaoni to help remove the weed, and she paid them accordingly.

She decided to let Shao Xiaoqi and Taotao go for a walk in the mountains.

Shao Xiaoqi had not hunted for a long time in the mountains, and he felt itchy to go there.

Shao Yunduan decided to take a break too, after studying hard for so long. So the four of them went into the mountains together.

Qiao Xuan had the intention of visiting the place where they had never visited before. Shao Yunduan as well as the other two agreed readily.

When Daddy Zhao was still alive, he had once taken Shao Xiaoqi into deep mountains that were deep. So, Shao Xiaoqi was used to this kind of environment, and he was never afraid.

But deep mountains were, after all, dangerous as they went in.

It was summer time, and the bugs, mosquitoes, snakes and all were quite active. They really needed to watch out for the poisonous ones.
