Taking space to escape famine, Sister Wan killed everyone along the way

Chapter 214: Mr. Xu's first time eating hot pot

The most important thing is that his poison is extremely contagious. It can not only be transmitted that way, but also through blood. When the emperor and the imperial concubine are together, they can also infect each other.

As for the concubine given to him by Concubine Liu, she had long been instigated by Bai Youyuan to rebel. Concubine Liu often asked the maid to go back and stay for a few days on the pretext of missing the sisters who grew up with her. One reason was to warn the maid to know who her master was, so that she would not rebel over time; the other was to detect Bai Youyuan's whereabouts and deeds these days.

Little did she know that it was her clever behavior that brought her into danger.

When this woman was serving Concubine Liu, she would occasionally drop a drop of her blood on the things Concubine Liu used or ate or drank, which would poison Concubine Liu.

Then, when they were together with the emperor, playing cards or something, they infected each other. But Bai Youyuan would usually give them some antidotes so that they would not be poisoned so easily. This entanglement lasted for more than twenty years.

"I'm a little confused about Senior Brother Bai!" Qin Wanwan really couldn't figure out what this guy was doing. If he wanted to kill him, just kill him directly. If he didn't want to kill him, then don't do it. He went through so much trouble but didn't kill the person. He also invested so much money. Is it really worth it?

Old Xu's eyes were slightly red, and he sighed, "Actually, I don't understand it either!" He really felt sorry for his nephew. He hesitated when he should have, and ended up suffering from the consequences. He couldn't let go of his hatred, and for the sake of the people of the world, he couldn't be cruel, so they could only torture each other like this.

But after torturing himself over and over again, in the end he was the only one who was tormented. Perhaps his mind was in a mess and he didn't know what to do. He just felt that doing something would make him feel better.

The atmosphere became dull, and the master and disciple talked about some other things, and the afternoon passed.

When Qin Qingyun and Song Shuyi came back in the evening, they found out that Old Xu had returned. When the old man saw Qin Qingyun standing straight in front of him, he hugged him and cried bitterly.

Looking at Old Xu who was rubbing his face with snot and tears, Qin Qingyun felt a little amused and helpless, but at the same time he was very moved. Old Xu had been away for almost two years, but he was much thinner than before.

He knew that Old Xu had gone out to find medicine to treat his leg disease. Although he lost his leg to save Old Xu from an accident, the hard work and efforts that Old Xu had done for his family over the years had far exceeded the kindness he had shown him back then.

"Uncle Xu, don't cry. Now that you're back, we can live happily together as a family!"

Over the years, Old Xu has become a member of their family. When they fled the famine, they were hesitant at first because of his leg and also because Old Xu had not returned. They were afraid that after they left, it would be difficult to see him again.

Unexpectedly, his leg healed later, and his daughter told him that she had a token left by Mr. Xu, so there was no need to worry about not being able to find him. The family finally felt relieved.

For dinner, we called Old Mrs. Song and the others over, and the whole family gathered together to eat hot pot. Since Mr. Xu was there, we specially made two pots to suit his stomach, one spicy beef hot pot and the other tomato hot pot.

Everyone except Master Xu was drinking beverages. Master Xu wanted to take a sip of wine, but his apprentice refused. "Master, don't I know how much you can drink? Not only can you get drunk after one glass, but you'll also be drunk after a while. We have so many delicious dishes here. If you get drunk, who's going to eat?"

The old man stopped worrying about drinking. He smelled the aroma emanating from the pot and looked at the pile of raw vegetables and meat on the table. He looked puzzled and said, "This smells good, but how can I eat it raw?"

Song Hua pursed her lips, nearly drooling. The pot was boiling at that moment. She picked up a handful of tripe with chopsticks and looked at Old Xu. "Grandpa Xu, let me show you how to eat it. This hot pot made by my sister Wanwan is guaranteed to be so delicious that it will make your mouth water!"

As she spoke, she put the tripe held by the chopsticks into the boiling pot and started to fry it up and down. She was frying the tomato base of the pot and she had never used chopsticks before, so after she was done, she put it directly into the bowl in front of Mr. Xu.

"Grandpa Xu, try it! I guarantee it's delicious!" He swallowed secretly and looked at Old Xu expectantly.

When Master Xu saw that the tripe was only cooked a few times in the pot and then served, he was a little nervous. Was it really cooked? But when he saw everyone around him looking at him, he instantly became excited. If his apprentice made it, it wouldn't be bad!

"Okay, Grandpa Xu, thank you for the painting." Old Xu gave Song Hua a kind smile. This little guy looked quite like his apprentice when he was a child.

The moment he put it in his mouth, the crispness of the tripe and the delicious taste of sesame paste instantly hit his taste buds. At this moment, he felt that all the delicacies he had eaten before were in vain. No, it should be said that none of the previous ones could be called delicacies, at least in front of this hot pot.

Seeing him enjoying his meal, everyone also had satisfied smiles on their faces. "Grandpa Xu, actually this spicy hot pot is even better. I just don't know if you can handle spicy food?"

Little girl Song Hua guessed that Grandpa Xu probably couldn't eat spicy food, otherwise they never had tomato hotpot before, but suddenly had tomato hotpot today, which was why she didn't go straight to the spicy hotpot.

"Really?" Mr. Xu didn't particularly like spicy food, but he could eat it, and he wanted to try it.

"Master, this hot pot is quite spicy, please take it easy!" Qin Wanwan wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, she decided not to. In the afternoon, Master drank so much spiritual spring water, and the deficiency in his body was probably made up long ago, so it would be okay to eat something spicy.

Old Xu nodded, "Got it, I'll try some first." At this time, the meat slices in the pot had been cooked for a long time. Everyone was sweating and choking while eating, but they were still eating more enthusiastically than each other, and he was also envious when he saw it.

He picked up a piece of meat roll and dipped it in sesame sauce. Instantly, the aroma of meat and sesame sauce hit his tongue directly. Just now it was a delicious shock, and now it was a collision of deliciousness and spiciness.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough," After swallowing the meat, Old Xu still coughed a few times due to the spiciness. Qin Wanwan handed him his teacup and said, "Drink some water."

Old Xu took it and took a big gulp. Now he didn't say that drinking tea like this was a waste of good tea. He just wanted to suppress the choking feeling.

Everyone saw that he was choking and cast concerned glances at him. Qin Qingyun said, "Uncle Xu, how about we try the tomato hotpot? It's actually quite delicious, and I like it too."

"Yes, yes, both the spicy and non-spicy dishes have their own unique flavors. The tomato soup base has a refreshing and rich flavor, and the meat cooked in it is even more delicious!"
