“My Guoguo has grown taller again. Let Daddy see if she has gained weight too.” Gu Chengrui picked her up and teased her.
“Not fat.” Guoguo pinched his face.
“Yes, she’s not fat, just heavy.” Gu Chengrui smiled.
After returning home, Gu Chengrui drank a cup of tea and ate two pastries. He took his new clothes and went to take a bath.
Zhou Ying remembered Gu Chengrui’s cravings and asked Qiuxiang to hurry to the market and buy a pig and two sheep.
After some preparation, Zhou Ying decided to roast it, as it was convenient for everyone to sit together and talk.
Of course, most of the remaining pork was marinated and prepared into cold dishes.
She also readied some peanuts, celery, carrots, lotus roots, yuba, fungus, tremella, yellow flowers, and so on. She mixed them with a large number of cold dishes.
When Gu Chengrui came out with Guoguo again, everyone was already busy preparing dinner.
Zhou Ying turned her head and asked, “Let’s see. Is there anything else you want to eat? If there is, tell me quickly.”
“That’s good enough, but do we have fish at home? I haven’t eaten fish in a long time.”
“There seems to be a small yellow croaker. I’ll go take a look.” Zhou Ying turned around and walked toward the storeroom. On the way, she called two servants to help.
Sure enough, there were quite a few in the storeroom. Zhou Ying had asked them to carry out a hundred pounds of the small yellow croakers she had caught from her inters.p.a.ce.
She looked around and found a few big ba.s.ses. It was just nice for everyone to share.
As for the wine, it was ordinary white wine. She had previously used rice, wheat, glutinous rice, and corn to brew it with her inters.p.a.ce’s winemaking machine.
Although it was not as good as the wine from her previous life, it was still quite good to drink.
In the evening, Gu Chengrui and everyone had a hearty meal.
Needless to say, people of this era were quite gluttonous. Everyone was still not filled after two sheep, one pig, and a large number of cold dishes and small yellow croakers, especially those hundred guards.
In the end, she could only roast more steamed buns.
When everyone was done, Guoguo had already fallen asleep with Mrs. Lin.
After Zhou Ying helped Gu Chengrui, who was drunk and groggy, to the bed, she washed up briefly and brought him into her inters.p.a.ce. After settling him down, she started to get busy.
She was busy until dawn and brought Gu Chengrui out of her inters.p.a.ce.
The next morning, Zhou Ying was still in a daze when someone pinched her nose and woke her up.
She opened her eyes and saw Guoguo. She was stunned for a moment. “Guoguo, what are you doing? Mommy is still sleepy. Go play by yourself.”
“I’m hungry. I want to eat.” Guoguo pleaded as she pushed Zhou Ying back and forth.
“Go find Nanny.”
“No, I want to eat Mother’s egg pancakes. Others don’t taste good.”
Zhou Ying sighed after hearing that. Why did she suddenly regret giving birth to this little thing?
However, when she looked into Guoguo’s big eyes, which were filled with antic.i.p.ation, she could only get up reluctantly.
After washing up, she brought her to the kitchen and made egg pancakes.
She made a few more and gave her one first. “Alright, go eat. Remember to have a bowl of millet porridge.”
“Got it.” Guoguo ate her favorite pancakes and immediately followed Mrs. Lin obediently.
Zhou Ying resigned herself to her fate and made the rest of the breakfast.
Gu Chengrui had just woken up when she reentered her room. He saw her panda eyes and asked, “What happened? Why didn’t you sleep more?”
“It’s all because of your good daughter. She wanted to eat pancakes so early in the morning and woke me up.
“Hurry up and wash your hands. It’s time for breakfast.” After Zhou Ying said that, she scooped out the millet porridge for the two of them and placed it on the table..
