After staying in the study for a while, Luo Yu and Mu Feng carefully left the room.

Just as she reached the door, Uncle Cai happened to meet her and asked with a smile on his face, "When can we start eating hot pot?"

Facing Uncle Cai's question, Luo Yu seemed very calm and composed. She smiled and replied, "Uncle Cai, look how anxious you are! In fact, I have already prepared everything. If you want to eat now, I can serve you the hot pot right away."

After saying that, Luo Yu winked at Uncle Cai mischievously.

"It's ready. Let me ask your Aunt He, and then we'll decide when to have dinner!"

"Okay, listen to Uncle Cai!"

Before Luo Yu finished speaking, Uncle Cai turned around and went into the house, rushing to find Aunt He like the wind.

At this time, Aunt He was playing with the children, with a bright smile on her face, like a flower blooming in spring. Uncle Cai didn't have the heart to interrupt this happy scene, but stood aside, like a silent sculpture, waiting for the right time to ask Aunt He a question.

The aunts were still chatting animatedly and did not notice Uncle Cai's actions at all; only two people noticed all this, one was Luo Yu and the other was Uncle Cai's servant.

Fortunately, Uncle Cai took advantage of Aunt He's opportunity to drink water and came over: "Madam, when are we going to eat? Luo Yu asked me to ask you."

Luo Yu???

Well! That's exactly what she wanted to ask.

Aunt He drank the water, looked up at Luo Yu standing beside her, and asked Uncle Cai, "What time is it?"

Uncle Cai said casually: "It's almost 3 p.m."

Aunt He thought for a while before she said quietly, "I'm fine with either. Ask everyone for their opinions."

"How can their opinions be as important as yours, ma'am?" Uncle Cai muttered.

Aunt He didn't hear clearly, so she asked in a slightly higher voice, "What are you talking about to yourself?"

"Nothing to say. The meal will be served at whatever time you say. Everything is up to you!"

Aunt He was in a good mood and said, "They are having a great time chatting and playing. How about we wait half an hour before having dinner?"

When Uncle Cai heard Aunt He's arrangement, he immediately flattered her, "My dear, you are kind and considerate of them. This arrangement is very good. We will have dinner in half an hour."

After saying that, he turned around and saw Luo Yu's face, which was hard to describe. Uncle Cai pretended to cough and said, "Listen to my wife, the meal will be served in half an hour."

Luo Yu muttered to himself, "I heard it, I heard it with both ears. Aunt He said that the meal will be served in half an hour. You are the only one in between, so I can hear it without you telling me."

With the meal time known, Luo Yu immediately went to find Mu Feng, opened the door, and said, "Mu Feng, the meal will be served in half an hour, so please come out according to the time. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you later."

Mu Feng frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his tone: "Why don't you come in?" He stared at Luo Yu at the door, trying to find the answer from the other's expression.

Luo Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing helplessly: "It's nothing important, I just stopped by to let you know. I won't go in and disturb you, just remember to come out later."

After saying this, Luo Yu seemed to want to add something else, but after hesitating for a moment, he did not speak.

Luo Yu had just gotten ready when Luo Luo came out.

Yes, half an hour later Luo Yu walked into the house carrying the ingredients.

As soon as Uncle Cai saw them step into the room, he walked towards Uncle Li and the head of the village without saying a word. He walked to the chessboard with an expressionless face, stretched out his hands and put all the chess pieces on it into the chess box.

This sudden action shocked Uncle Li and the head of the village, and both of them showed anger and dissatisfaction that were difficult to conceal on their faces.

However, just as they were about to open their mouths to reprimand, they caught a glimpse of Luo Yu walking into the house with a pile of food in his hands.

Seeing this, Uncle Li thought to himself: I'll just swallow this anger for now, and I'll definitely take revenge when I find a good opportunity in the future! So he quickly suppressed his displeasure and looked away as if nothing had happened.

When the fresh ingredients were brought into the house, everyone who had been sitting in the living room chatting about family matters could not help but stand up when they saw the ingredients, as if they had smelled the aroma of delicious food.

The headman's wife smiled and said, "It seems we're in for a treat today!" After that, she quickly walked towards the kitchen, followed by the other aunts.

After a while, there were busy sounds coming from the kitchen.

On the other side, Mu Feng was still immersed in the sea of ​​books, completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Time passed by, and finally, the delicious hot pot and ingredients were placed on the table. The rich aroma filled the air, making people salivate.

At this time, Mu Feng seemed to have noticed something. He gently put down the book in his hand, stretched, and then slowly walked out of the study.

When he saw the table full of sumptuous food, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He smiled and greeted everyone, then sat down to enjoy the delicious meal.

Uncle Cai and Aunt Lin, who had already eaten once, seemed calm and unhurried.

However, Uncle Li and the village head and his wife, who had never eaten hotpot, were a little at a loss.

Uncle Cai saw Uncle Li's awkward look and couldn't help but laugh at him, "Oh, you don't know how to eat hot pot, do you?"

This remark aroused the anger of Aunt He, who had also never eaten hotpot. Seeing his smug look, she couldn't help but stepped hard on Uncle Cai under the table.

"Ah, my lady, please have mercy on me! I was wrong!" Uncle Cai said as he couldn't help begging for mercy and taking a breath.

"Haha~ You got carried away by letting us laugh at you, you deserve it!"

Uncle Li couldn't help but smile with glee.

Seeing that they hadn't eaten yet, Luo Yu hurried over and said, "Uncle Cai, don't be so proud!"

"Uncle Li, head of the village, auntie, you see this is a double-flavored hotpot, one side is spicy and the other side is not. Put the dishes you want in and cook them, then pick them up and eat them. I specially made the dipping sauce, you can try it first, if you don't like it, I'll change the flavor."

The wife of the village head said politely, "Okay, it's that simple. Please sit down and eat. We will do it ourselves."

Today we sat at two tables. Luckily, she added another portion when she ordered it last time, otherwise there would only be one double-pot and we would have to share it.

Uncle Cai and his older friends sat at one table, while Luo Yu and his friends, along with Yun Niang, their children and servants, sat together.

As Luo Yu instructed, the headman and his friends at the table had already started eating. Paired with the dipping sauce prepared by Luo Yu, it was a perfect match. Uncle Li couldn't stop eating.

Uncle Cai was afraid that Uncle Li would get burned, so he cooked Aunt He's favorite dishes and told Uncle Li, "Eat slowly. Who would snatch the food from you?"

Uncle Li said rudely: "You are not a human being!"
