Chapter 372 - Departure 3

Su Xiaolu exclaimed in surprise and praised, “You’re amazing.”

When the skills reached this level, it was equivalent to practicing martial arts and becoming a top-notch expert.

Su Xiaoling also looked at He Hai in admiration and said, “Old Master is really amazing.”

He Hai was in high spirits. He said happily, “Let’s go. I’ll show you my culinary skills.”

He Hai taught Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu how to cook seriously. His cooking was different, and Su Xiaoling focused on learning.

Su Xiaolu listened seriously, but she basically didn’t remember anything.

He Hai looked at the two sisters. One was studying diligently, and the other seemed to be in a daze. He said gently to Su Xiaolu, “Girl, you have to learn from your sister. It’s very important to have good culinary skills.”

As a woman, having superb culinary skills could control a man’s stomach. The five internal organs were the foundation of a person. If she controlled her husband’s stomach, why would she worry about not being able to obtain his heart?

Since ancient times, if you wanted to capture a man’s heart, you had to first capture his stomach. This was not without reason.

Before Su Xiaolu could speak, Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “Sir, you might not know this, but my little sister is not good at cooking. Her medical skills are enough to deal with the future.”

A woman with medical skills was better than ten women with culinary skills.

Su Xiaolu did not need to know how to cook at all. Her medical skills were the best.

He Hai could hear Su Xiaoling’s protectiveness. He smiled and said, “I see. I was blind. As you said, it’s enough to have medical skills.”

He did not expect the two sisters to have such deep feelings for each other.

He Hai displayed his deep culinary skills. The mutton was stewed in a hanging pot, and everyone sat around the fire to warm themselves.

He boiled water and steamed the dry biscuits.

He Hai told the Su family about what he had seen and heard in various places in Great Zhou.

In the South, Shanghai and Linhai, people loved to steam all kinds of fish and prawns.

As for the northern desert, they loved cows and sheep. They were cooked directly. They did not even need bowls and chopsticks. They could eat them with a knife and a sauce made with wild vegetables.

He had been to many places and eaten a lot of food. He knew how to make them.

When the sky turned dark, a large pot of sour and spicy mutton soup was ready.

When the lid was removed, a rich fragrance wafted out. The mutton was soft, and the sour and spicy cabbage was soft.

Everyone was eating steamed pancakes.

Su Xiaolu pried it open from the middle and picked up a piece of mutton to eat.

It was the feeling of a meat sandwich.

If not for the fact that she would recall her memories of her previous life from time to time because of some scenery, she would have almost forgotten that she was a transmigrator.

“That’s a new way to eat.”

He Hai smiled and said. Then, he learned from Su Xiaolu and realized that the taste was not bad.

There was meat in the dough. It was like a bun but not a bun. It tasted better than a bun.

Everyone learned to eat like this and said that it was delicious.

Su Xiaolu smiled. Roujiamo must be super delicious.

The entire pot of mutton was eaten, and not even the soup was left.

After eating, He Hai still had some aftertaste. He said to Su Xiaolu, “Girl, your eating method is novel. Do you mind if I use it in the restaurant? Of course, I have to modify it. When the white pancake is only so big, it will definitely taste good with a piece of soft and fragrant mutton or braised pork.”

He Hai made a circle, which was only the size of an egg.

There were many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, and they ate elegantly. The small and exquisite food was provided for them.

Su Xiaolu waved her hand and said, “I don’t mind. If you make it, I’ll definitely come and eat it.”

He Hai’s culinary skills were very good. They were different from Su Xiaoling’s. The similarity was that Su Xiaolu still wanted to eat them.

He Hai smiled and said, “Okay.”

He Hai looked at Su Xiaoling and said, “Xiaoling, from your understanding of culinary skills, I can also tell that you have a deep culinary foundation. When you reach the capital, if you feel bored, you can play with my eldest granddaughter. She also started holding a kitchen knife at the age of three. I think you two have something you love together. You should be able to get along well.”

Su Xiaoling nodded. “Alright, thank you, Old Master.”

He Hai waved his hand. “No need, no need. It’s getting late. You guys should rest early. We’ll continue our journey tomorrow.”

The night was cold. Thinking that the Su family only had one carriage, He Hai smiled and said, “If you don’t mind, you can come over and squeeze with me.”

He Hai treated people sincerely. Su Sanlang did not decline his kindness. He thanked him and agreed.

Su Chong and Su Xiaolu had internal energy to protect their bodies, but Su Hua and Zhou Heng did not.

Therefore, Su Sanlang brought Zhou Heng and He Hai to squeeze in. Su Hua, Madam Zhao, and Su Xiaoling returned to their carriage to rest.

Su Chong and Su Xiaolu guarded the fire. The two of them tacitly used their mental cultivation techniques.

One night passed while they were cultivating and recuperating.

They had to travel in the morning, so He Hai cooked porridge and Su Xiaoling helped.

Su Chong and Su Xiaolu practiced their sword techniques.

He Hai sighed. “I didn’t expect Xiaolu to have such a good sword technique. It’s really not bad. She can also hold a saber, but it’s very different.”

Su Xiaoling smiled. It was normal for He Hai to be surprised.

He Hai added, “Although the world is peaceful, there are still many bandits hiding in the mountains and wilderness. When I was traveling in my early years, I encountered robbers blocking the way. Every time I think about it, I wish I had martial arts. Now that I see Xiaolu, who is as light as a swallow, I’m really amazed.”

Who wouldn’t have a wuxia heart?

Who wouldn’t be envious of those who were skilled in martial arts and could take revenge at will?

He Hai looked at Su Xiaoling. Before he could ask, Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “Sir, don’t look at me. I’m the same as you.”

He Hai laughed out loud and looked at Su Hua and Zhou Heng.

Su Hua and Zhou Heng also smiled and cupped their hands. “Sir, we’re the same as you.”

He Hai laughed heartily and said, “Oh, then I’m relieved. I almost thought that this martial art was very easy to practice.”

Everyone laughed.

He Hai’s emotions made them feel the same way.

He Hai did not avoid anyone’s sized up gaze when he spoke. He displayed himself openly, making the Su family’s impression of him increase even more.

After breakfast, they hurried on together.

They ate light food in the morning, dry rations in the afternoon, and He Hai made a pot of good dishes at night. Although they were all gathered in one pot, the taste was not bad at all.

When they reached the capital, the Su family’s understanding of He Hai deepened. As soon as they entered the capital, Liu Zijin welcomed them. He smiled and hugged Su Chong. “Ah Chong, I knew you would arrive at this time. It’s exactly as I estimated.”

Su Chong smiled. “Zijin, you entered the capital early. This time, our family will be bothering you.”

Liu Zijin smiled and bowed to Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao. Then, she said, “Uncle, Aunt, I’ve already settled down. Don’t worry about anything. Just follow me.”
