Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 509: The Origins of Madam Feng (3)
To Feng Xuxu’s left was Dugu Chen, and at that moment, the two kids dragged Baihe out to watch Xuan Yue and the others roast the beef.
"Haha, this old lady doesn’t yearn to live long," she said with a sigh, looking rather sorrowful, "I just want to see my son marry a bride and my daughter wed. Then I can go underground and explain myself to your Uncle Hui."
"Mom, what are you saying? You’re in good health. You can easily live for several more decades." Jiaojiao felt pained for her mother. Ever since her father had died, though her mother had cried in front of her and her big brother, she would weep secretly. Jiaojiao herself had heard her earth-shattering sobs in the middle of the night, and it made her heart ache.
"Silly girl, even if mom’s body is in good shape, I can’t live forever. Eventually, I’ll go underground to meet your father. As long as you are all doing well, mom will be at peace and will have fulfilled her duty to your deceased father."
"Don’t you want to live to see your grandchildren?"
"Of course, I dream of it!" she brightened up at the mention of grandchildren.
"Then you’d better take good care of yourself. My future nieces and nephews will need their aunt to help look after them!" Feng Xuxu said with a restrained smile, sensing her aunt’s eagerness to hasten the weddings of both her big brother and Jiaojiao, which also suited her own wishes.
The aunt was visibly startled, then burst into loud laughter, patting Feng Xuxu’s hand repeatedly and exclaiming affirmatives. Jiaojiao blushed at the side, while Feng Xi simply scratched his head with a silly grin.
At that moment, the aunt noticed the outstanding man beside Feng Xuxu. She saw that his every move exuded elegance and turned to look at Feng Xuxu, "He must be your husband!"
Following her gaze, Feng Xuxu looked at the man beside her and nodded to her aunt, "Aunt, his name is Xiao Chen, he’s my husband."
"Mmm, truly talented and handsome. That’s wonderful. Feng Big Brother and Big Sister, if they know it down there, will definitely be happy," the aunt said contentedly as she looked at Dugu Chen.
Dugu Chen sensed the kind gaze from the aunt named Hui and unusually offered her a smile.
The beef on the rack was already wafting a tempting aroma. Yingsu and Zhu Lengqing started to carve the meat from the whole cow, putting pieces onto plates, sprinkling some spices over them, and passing the plates of freshly sliced beef around to everyone present, while Xuan Yue and others continued roasting while eating. Before this cow was finished roasting, someone had already started to roast rabbits over the fire. Following the direction of the bamboo sticks, they saw none other than the Princess roasting the rabbits, which surprised everyone. They hurried over, wanting to take over, but the Princess was just getting into the fun of it, and despite their pleas, she wouldn’t budge.
Qiqi sat on the ground, looking thoroughly content with the delicacies in her plate. She watched disbelieving as Little Yueyue went about cooking on her own, so she turned up her nose in disdain and instead picked up a wild chicken, brushing it with a layer of honey and placing it over the fire. She slowly turned it, and with a sizzling sound, the golden-brown chicken skin bubbled, releasing bursts of tempting aroma.
With Baihe’s guidance, Little Yueyue finally managed to roast the rabbit properly. She picked up the whole rabbit and ran towards her mother, saying proudly, "Mom, look, this is the rabbit meat I roasted. You eat first."
Feng Xuxu happily watched Little Yueyue, praising her, "Who would have thought that our Little Yueyue could roast a wild rabbit too, and even thought to let mom have a taste. You’re such a good girl, come let mom try a bite." She took the slightly burnt rabbit from Little Yueyue’s hands, and although the outside was charred, luckily the meat inside was cooked. She gently tore off a piece of meat and tasted it with some seasoning. Feng Xuxu’s eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the expectant Little Yueyue, "It’s delicious, I want another bite."
