The Little Lucky Girl of the Hunter Family

Chapter 84: New Year's Eve

Wei Chengye washed his hands and put on his clothes, then turned to look at Jiang Yao and asked.

"Let's go to the market first. There are the materials I need."

Jiang Yao went back to her room and asked her family to confirm that there was nothing that needed to be purchased, then left with Wei Chengye.

Because it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are a lot of people here. Jiang Yao carefully looked around the stalls, hoping to find what she needs in the shortest time possible.

As they walked, they came to a lantern shop.

The stalls are filled with lanterns of various colors, including rabbit lanterns and lotus lanterns. They are colorful and pleasing to the eye.

Considering that there would be many beggars during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and her two children were too young to play on the streets, Jiang Yao picked out some beautiful lanterns.

Wei Chengye considerately put away the lantern.

It is not something that most people can do to buy so many lanterns at one time. The boss made a lot of money and said congratulations while collecting the money.

“Thank you for your concern for my business. I hope you can enjoy this festival!”

Jiang Yao felt a little uncomfortable when their names were called out. She smiled awkwardly at the vendor and turned away.

Wei Chengye looked at Jiang Yao in silence, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face, and he sighed in his heart.

It's so rare to be able to make Jiang Yao so shy, it's quite interesting.

Wei Chengye recalled the way Jiang Yao casually took out things just now, and was afraid that she would meet someone with bad intentions. He was stunned for a moment, then he started laughing and chased after her.

But the two of them tacitly agreed not to say a word and concentrated on purchasing what they needed for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival.

Soon, the two came back with a big bag of food. Jiang Yao was thinking about whether to go to another restaurant to bring some snacks for her two sisters. When she looked up, she saw the thick dark clouds in the sky.

Neither of them brought an umbrella because they had to carry so many things. In case it rained heavily, it would be good if they could rent a car, but if there was no carriage, they would be in trouble.

Jiang Yao turned to Wei Chengye and said, "Brother Wei, do you want to buy something?"

"No, you have everything. I think the weather is not very good, we should go home."

"Okay, let's go."

The two of them traveled quickly all the way and finally returned to the mansion before the heavy rain came.

Just as she put it down, she heard the sound of raindrops outside the door. Looking at the watertight house outside the window, Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief and said to the two of them.

"Luckily you two got here in time, otherwise, you two would have been stuck on the street in the heavy rain."

"Mom, my daughter is not that stupid."

"Yes, my Yao'er is still sensible." Mrs. Lu looked at Jiang Yao who was busy with work lovingly, her eyes full of joy.

She glanced at the food her daughter bought and was immediately conflicted.

"Yao'er, these are things I have never prepared for you. I see it's getting late, do you want to make something in the kitchen, and I will come over to help you after I'm done cleaning up?"

"Okay, you take a break, don't worry, I can take care of it in the kitchen."

"I know you are very capable, but you must pay attention to safety."

"it is good."

The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Yao began to prepare the meal.

Mrs. Lu came to help her. The meat dishes in the kitchen had already been prepared. Even the pig's trotters were put into a big pot. The only thing left was to stir-fry the vegetables.

Seeing that her daughter was about to make a fire to cook, Mrs. Lu was about to go forward to make the fire, but Wei Chengye got there first.

"Aunt Lu, you take a rest first, I'll make a fire." Wei Chengye said as he walked to the stove and started a fire.

When Aunt Lu saw this scene, she smiled kindly and her voice was full of approval.

"Xiaoye, you are really hardworking." "In that case, you stay here to take care of Yaoer. I will sort out the things in the store first."

The first time Mrs. Lu left in such a hurry, she was afraid that if she was a step late, her daughter would stop her.

She was a middle-aged woman and didn't want to affect their lives in the kitchen.

Jiang Yao, who was behind, also noticed something strange about Lu, but since nothing major had happened in the store recently, she didn't take it seriously.

After the water in the pot evaporated, he quickly poured in some cooking oil, then put the pork and fat in, and then put in the marinated pork.

When the meat was cooked, she added some erjingtiao and red pepper, turned it over, and saw that there was a layer of skin on the two sticks, then she added some seasoning.

Then he added garlic, stir-fried it for a few times, and it was ready to be served.

For a moment, the whole kitchen was filled with a suffocating fragrance, and even Wei Chengye swallowed his saliva because of the smell.

Soon, Jiang Yao cleaned the pot and continued to do other things.

Perhaps because the two of them cooked together so many times, Wei Chengye had a very good control over the flame, and he would do it on his own without Jiang Yao's instructions.

No one knew when the heavy rain outside stopped. The sisters moved the items Jiang Yao had picked into the house and began to decorate the courtyard.

After they had finished setting up the place and preparing Jiang Yao's meal, the family of three shuttled back and forth between the living room and the kitchen.

Soon, the big table was piled with food, and the aroma was overflowing, which made people's appetites increase. The two people said Happy New Year to each other, and waited for Mrs. Lu to pick up the chopsticks before everyone started eating.

While eating, Jiang Yao observed everyone's preferences so that they could better change their cooking methods.

Just like Lu, who likes light food, she has already drunk two large bowls of braised pork feet. Wei Chengye's favorite dish is the one she cooks, which is fragrant and delicious.

His two sisters and old lady Lu all love sour and sweet flavors, such as sweet and sour pork bones and shredded pork with fish flavor.

After dinner, everyone ate and chatted, except Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao looked at the lantern that had not been put up yet, glanced up at the sky, and saw that the dark clouds in the sky had been blown away by the strong wind. There would be no rain in the short term, so she planned to hang up the lantern.

After picking two suitable ones, Jiang Yao sat on a high bench and hung up a lantern.

Unfortunately, she was too short, and even if she stood on tiptoe on the chair, she couldn't put down the lamp.

Just then, she heard hurried footsteps. She turned around and almost fell to the ground because she exerted too much force.

"Ah!" a scream rang out.

She closed her eyes in fear and prayed silently in her heart that the pain would not come again.
