The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Li Liuyun felt that Hongxiao was indeed a business talent, with a sharp mind and the ability to apply knowledge to new situations.

By the time Li Liuyun finished baking the crispy noodles, several pots of winter bamboo shoots had already been blanched and drained. When the crispy noodles came out of the oven, they were noticeably darker in color than the instant noodles they had baked before, a golden yellow. Li Liuyun used a spatula to scoop the crispy noodles out and set them aside to cool.

Feng Xian stepped forward, smelled the aroma, and asked Li Liuyun with a smile, "Junior Sister, what kind of noodles are these? They look much darker than the instant noodles we had before, and they smell really good."

Hongxiao said, "This is called crispy noodles. You can eat it directly. Let's try it when it cools down. My junior sister said that this noodle can also be eaten as a snack. If there is no hot water in the wild, you can chew it dry to fill your stomach. It's even more convenient than instant noodles."

"This is amazing! That's wonderful! I wonder if you've named this instant noodle yet, junior sister? Can we make and sell it in the future?"

Li Liuyun nodded: "Of course we can sell it. I've already given this recipe to my sister-in-law. It's a different recipe from the instant noodles. The instant noodle recipe is for Yan'er's dowry. If you like this crispy noodle, you can sell it directly. It will be your own business in the future. As for the name of this crispy noodle?"

Li Liuyun turned to Nangong Li and asked, "What do you think would be a good name for this instant noodle?"

Li Liuyun knew he was terrible at naming things, so whenever it came to choosing a name, he would drag Nangong Li into it.

Nangong Li thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Feng's Instant Noodles. It's simple and clear, and you can tell at a glance that it comes from the Feng family. It's also the same category as instant noodles, so it's easy to remember."

The group nodded in agreement after hearing Nangong Li's words, and they all agreed to order Feng's Crispy Noodles. While they were talking, the crispy noodles had already gone cold.

Li Liuyun handed out a plate to everyone, and each person took a piece of crispy noodles. Feng Xian smelled the aroma of the crispy noodles and couldn't wait to take a bite. In an instant, a crunching sound rang out, and the plates in everyone's hands gradually filled with crumbs.

Feng Xian finished a piece of crispy noodles in no time, leaving crumbs all over the plate: "It really lives up to its name, crispy and crumbly. This noodle is quite flavorful, the more you chew it, the more flavorful it becomes. It's salty, fragrant and crispy, and it can definitely be used as a snack. It's even better than ordinary snacks."

The remaining people also finished their instant noodles, and poured the remaining noodle crumbs from their plates into their palms and put them into their mouths.

Looking at the way the others ate without any instruction, Li Liuyun thought of the saying that is often said nowadays: when eating instant noodles, you must empty the bag; when drinking yogurt, you must lick the lid.

It's not about whether you have money or not; it's about making sure you eat all the good food you can to show respect for it.

Hongxiao ate half a piece of crispy noodles and couldn't eat anymore. She handed the remaining half to Feng Xian: "These crispy noodles are salty and really delicious, but eating too much will make your mouth dry, so you still need to drink some water. Instant noodles are smoother and have a better texture, and you can also drink the soup. Both have their own merits, but they are indeed rare ingredients!"

Li Liuyun nodded: "That's right. By the way, Sister-in-law, now that you've learned both of these techniques, we'll set off tomorrow. Once we've resolved the hidden dangers over there, we'll come back to fetch Master and bring him back to Beili."

Oh, right, when you go back later, bake a few extra pieces of instant noodles for that old man to take back. Otherwise, he'll accuse us of hogging the food and not giving him any.

Feng Xian and Hong Xiao found Li Liuyun's words both amusing and gratifying. They were gratified that their master was finally willing to go back with their junior sister and settle down!

The funny thing is, this isn't a master and apprentice at all; they're practically a pair of clowns, and the master is the one being bullied by the junior sister.

Hongxiao nodded: "I understand. After I finish roasting the dried bamboo shoots, I'll have them make a few portions to take back for Master and Yan'er to try as well."

Li Liuyun stayed a while longer, helped Hongxiao stack the blanched bamboo shoots into the roasting bin, then told her to flip the bamboo shoots halfway through, and then left with Nangong Li!

After returning to the Feng residence, Nangong Li and Li Liuyun instructed An Yi and Wushuang to pack their luggage in preparation for their departure the next day. Nan'an City was only about half a day's journey from the border military camp, and they should be able to arrive at the camp by tomorrow morning.

The two returned to their room, and Li Liuyun rested his chin on his hand, seemingly lost in thought.

Thinking of the military camp, Li Liuyun thought of Xiao Jinhua: "I wonder how Third Cousin and Wuyou are doing? And I wonder how Third Cousin's injury is healing?"

Oh, and I also need to go and make some scar-removing ointment for my third cousin. His beautiful face can't be ruined like this!

Upon hearing Li Liuyun's words, Nangong Li chuckled and said, "A face as beautiful as a flower? Do you think Xiao San would be happy or angry if he heard you describe his face like that?"

"Why is he angry? Don't you think my cousin is quite good-looking? And my eldest cousin and second cousin are also rare handsome men."

My eldest cousin is as pure and handsome as a breeze and the moon, unparalleled in the world; my second cousin is resourceful and wise, reserved and composed; and my third cousin is dashing and debonair! Ah, the Xiao family has such good genes! It's just a pity that both of my uncles only had sons, no older or younger cousins.

"I never knew that in Yun'er's eyes, your three cousins ​​were so outstanding. I wonder which of your cousins ​​Yun'er likes the most?"

Nangong Li looked at Li Liuyun with a half-smile, while tightening his grip on the teacup.

Li Liuyun was oblivious to the sour undertone in Nangong Li's voice.

“My three cousins ​​are so outstanding, which girl wouldn’t like them? I would…” Li Liuyun hadn’t finished speaking.

Ling'er's voice rang out: "Master, be careful! I sense a resentful aura."

When Li Liuyun first heard Ling'er say she sensed resentment, he exclaimed, "What? Resentment? Can't you only sense killing intent? When did you become able to sense resentment?"

“Master, the main problem is that the vixen opposite you is already seething with resentment! Didn’t you notice the sour tone in her voice? She asked you which cousin you like? If you say you like them all, you’re doomed.”

Look at his face, it's as black as the bottom of a pot. Master, I think you'd better try to appease him. Otherwise, if his resentment turns into murderous intent, you'll be in grave danger.

Li Liuyun only belatedly realized what Nangong Li was asking after hearing Ling'er's words, and quickly retracted his statement that he liked them both.

So Li Liuyun's words turned into: "With such outstanding cousins, which girl wouldn't like them? I'm already used to your face. No matter how outstanding they are, they can't compare to you. Compared to your face, their looks are simply not in the same league. There's no comparison! When I'm eating, looking at your face makes me eat two big bowls more rice."
