Chu Heng glanced at him.
Was Lu Sangqi coming to him to clear his doubts?
“I’m a little thirsty.” Chu Heng sat behind the desk and flipped open the book. He did not even look at Lu Sangqi. Instead, he ordered Lu Chuan, who had followed him in. “Send Doctor Qi to the central room for some tea.”
“Doctor Qi, please.” Lu Chuan reached out his hand to led him.
Lu Sangqi was not as tall as Lu Chuan. Thinking that he had to stand on tiptoes to see Chu Heng, it made him look inferior. He was instantly unhappy and turned to leave.
After he walked out of the door, he finally realized what Chu Heng meant.
He felt a little upset. He turned around and wanted to enter the study room again, but he saw that Lu Chuan had already closed the door. Chu Heng’s expression was even calmer, and he did not care about Lu Sangqi mood at all!
“Did you learn how to treat guests from Chu Heng?” Lu Sangqi gritted his teeth.
Lu Chuan already knew Chu Heng well enough. Hearing this, he nodded his head and said kindly, “I don’t think Master wants to talk to you. Doctor Qi is a doctor, so you probably can’t get along well with my master. Why don’t you sit in the main room and drink tea?”
“Are you saying that I don’t deserve to talk to Chu Heng?” Lu Sangqi was furious.
“Ah?” Lu Chuan looked at him in confusion. “Doctor Qi, it’s not good for you to be so easily angered. Besides, that’s not what I meant.”
“Could it be that Doctor Qi doesn’t want to stay at home for a meal?” Chu Heng’s cold voice came from the room.
It was obvious that he wanted to chase Lu Sangqi away.
Lu Sangqi was taken aback, but he still wanted to stay longer to ask about the situation. He snorted and quickly walked into the central room.
Who knew that there would be no one to talk to him after that.
Lu Sangqi’s mood kept changing. Unfortunately, no one cared about him. He could only choose to heal himself.
Ye Muyu’s face was still a little red when she entered the kitchen.
Madam Hut s attention was on the food that should be prepared for lunch.
She did not notice Ye Muyu’s expression.
“Madam, are we making fish and crabs for lunch?”
“There is also the eel in the rice fields. This thing likes to dig holes. In the past, this servant only heard that rich families made eel soup, but I don’t know the exact method. In the countryside, they just roast it and eat it.”
“I’ll make the spicy fish fillet with the fish. I’ll make the spicy crab. As for the eel…Then let’s make eel soup too.”
“Although we don’t know how the rich make it, we can make it like soup.” Of course, Ye Muyu knew how to eat the eel, so after she finished speaking, Madam Hu packed up the ingredients and she cooked it.
Ye Muyu planned to use yam and carrots for the eel soup.
Perhaps because they was located in Jiangnan, there were many ingredients. The village was filled with all kinds of vegetables. It was the season for eating vegetables. Ye Muyu needed the ingredients that he did not have at home, so he called Zhang Shu to buy them.
The eel soup was also very simple to make.
When the water in the pot was hot, she blanched the Chinese yam pieces to cool them down, then put in the eel pieces to blanch and wash them to cool
them down.
After preparing the ingredients, she put oil into the iron pot. When the oil was hot, she put in onions, ginger, garlic, and other condiments. Ginger was more expensive, so she put less in.
Then, she put in the eel and stir-fried it for a while. She needed to add some cooking wine to remove the fishy smell.
Without cooking wine, Ye Muyu used the white wine.
When it was fragrant, she poured it into a small clay pot, added water on the stove, and added Chinese yam and carrots to stew.
“Madam, it smells so good. It doesn’t smell fishy at all. In the past, this servant never thought of doing this. Now that I’ve learned it, In the future, this servant will cook it for you.” At this time, Madam 1–1u had also finished preparing the fish slices..
