101: Chapter 101: How to Sleep – 1 101: Chapter 101: How to Sleep – 1 The grill and skewers were from the restaurant.
She had used her thoughts to put them into her space, including the essential items required for barbecuing such as the charcoal fire, strainer, and spices.
She had prepared the fish she caught last night, made so cuts on the back of the fish with a knife, and brushed it with salt and Sichuan pepper so that it could better absorb the flavors during the grilling process.
She also soaked so shells in salty water to help them expel the grit.
Having just at skewers and fish and shrimp was not enough, so vegetables were needed to balance out the greasy taste.
She picked a few eggplants from the field, dug out so sweet and white potatoes, washed them and cut them into thin slices, ready to be grilled on the strainer later.
Once everything was ready, she started grilling.
Not long after, the fragrance of the at skewers filled her space, making Brother Parrot’s beak drool, Chang i was scratching his head and cheeks while looking at the skewers, and even the usually composed Great Immortal Turtle couldn’t help but slowly crawl over and sniff around the stove.
“It’s ready, have a taste, see if it’s good!”
Cai Wei put the first batch of skewers onto a plate and put it on the grass.
Several divine beasts imdiately started feasting without a care of manners, those skewers glistening with oil, coated with different seasonings, were more delicious than anything they had ever had.
The grilled golden fish, with its skin still sizzling with oil, stuffed with vegetables such as coriander and green onions for seasoning, was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they couldn’t get enough of it.
“Master, the barbecue is so delicious, it’s amazing that you could think of cooking it this way!”
“Master, my admiration for you is like an endless river…”
The divine beasts never thought that such common things they used to eat could be made so delicious.
For instance, red and white potatoes, their way of eating them was to dig them out of the ground, wash them clean, and chew on them.
The Great Immortal Turtle was a bit more particular, but only as far as boiling them to eat.
However, the master’s thod was to slice them thinly, brush them with honey, sprinkle with sesa, brush them with soy sauce and sprinkle with cumin and salty noodles when they were almost done.
It had the perfect balance of color, aroma, and taste, and tasted sweetly delicious.
The way the eggplant was grilled was even more peculiar, the eggplant was split vertically in half, placed on a strainer, and minced coriander, garlic, green onions, and salty noodles sprinkled on the pulp.
When it was slowly cooked, it emitted an indescribable fragrance and tasted delicious.
They were all very satisfied with the al and overate.
Even the Old Turtle, who always took care of his health and only ate until he was 70% full, kept belching.
Brother Parrot lay on the ground, unable to move, Bai i was clutching his stomach and kept saying he was ‘full’.
The grass was littered with remnants.
Cai Wei had made more than enough and taken out a portion for the White Tiger, but since the White Tiger refused to eat cooked food, she decided to take the rest ho to give to that evildoer.
The evildoer was very picky about his food.
Everything, from heating to salting and nutritional balance, had to be perfect.
Surprisingly, he had a soft spot for the barbeque Cai Wei brought back and ate a lot with satisfaction, with Cai Wei’s help.
After the al, Cai Wei applied dicine to him again.
Because of the previous ‘urinating’ incident, the application of the dicine was nothing out of the ordinary.
She washed her hands and calmly sat by the couch, took the box of milky white ointnt, and applied it evenly to the man’s wounds.
The places where the girl’s fingertips touched the wound were warm and a bit itchy, numbingly pleasant as if soone was gently tickling him with a feather.
Nangong Yi was comfortably lying on the couch pretending to sleep, his deep eyes hidden behind long eyelashes.
Cai Wei was busy with her work, oblivious to the fact that she was being watched.
At that mont, she was sitting next to the man, pursing her lips and frowning slightly.
She held his wounded shoulder gently, applying the dicine with utmost concentration.
Her clear and innocent eyes, as transparent as a stream, showed no sign of impurity.
It was as if she was doing the most important thing in the world!
Her soft little hands moved delicately across the wound, like a butterfly fluttering its wings.
The sensation was so soothing that it made his heart tremble!
Soone once said that serious won are the most beautiful.
At that mont, Nangong Yi wholeheartedly agreed with this statent.
Although she was only thirteen years old, and despite her youthful appearance, and despite her lack of fashion sense and the tender feminine charm won are supposed to possess, in his eyes, she was a thousand tis more beautiful than any noble lady!
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, the girl’s voice rang out.
“Done!”
Cai Wei wiped her hands and brought out the internal elixir given by the old turtle, offering it to his lips, “Don’t sleep just yet.
Open your eyes.
Take the dicine first.
You can sleep later.”
The man slowly opened his eyes, his charming smile lighting up, “Wei’er, you really are thoughtful!”
Cai Wei huffed, retorting, “I just want you to get better faster and go away as soon as possible, as for being thoughtful, you’re overthinking it.”
The man was taken aback, then laughed helplessly.
Even though the girl’s words were harsh, he couldn’t help but adore her, because what he feared was her fiery, stubborn character!
Just as it was getting dark, Mother returned with Fei’er and the others.
Jiujin, obediently, did take them to the Nursing Hos before sundown.
Once they were back, they arrived ho just as the sun was setting.
Hearing the sound of Mother entering, Cai Wei hurried out, fearing that soone might bump into her room.
She exchanged pleasantries with them and guided them straight to Mother’s large room, where she showed them all the rewards she got from the An mansion today.
Lady Du was very pleased with the two rolls of fabric.
Both were top-quality: one was Silver-Red Color Cloud Brocade with Mud Gold Flowers, the other was Autumn-coloured Ruyi Cloud Pattern Satin.
They were perfect for girls like Wei’er and Fei’er.
As she wasn’t skilled with a needle, she was afraid she might waste the fabric.
So, after discussing it with her daughters, they decided to ask a tailor from a clothes shop to help them the next day.
Cai Wei was planning to go to the clothes shop to buy clothes for that evildoer, too.
The evildoer, seriously injured, wouldn’t be able to walk for a while.
She didn’t want to co ho every day and et that eye-popping image of a naked man each ti—it might lead to her eyes becoming like needles!
Fei’er really liked the pair of Pearl Cluster Gold Inlaid Earrings that Cai Wei received.
Coincidentally, Cai Wei was planning to buy so jewelry for her.
She readily gave the earrings to Fei’er, and also took out several other rings and earrings she received, and distributed them to Mother and Cai Fei.
After the won chatted for a while, it was getting late.
Wen’er and Wu’er, having gotten up early, were sitting on the couch, their tired little bodies swaying along with their small braids.
Seeing that it was late, Lady Du urged the girls to go to bed.
Yawning, Fei’er lazily said, “Today, I helped bathe the orphans at the Nursing Ho with Mother.
It was really tiring.
I think it’s best to go to sleep early.”
Cai Wei stiffened, facing a serious problem: How was she supposed to sleep?
