Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Wolf Meat Pot

"Qingqing, please don’t misunderstand, I have absolutely nothing going on with him.

You mustn’t forget, I am much older than you all."

Ye Mianmian could never have imagined that Fan Qing would say such a thing.

"Nowadays, sister-brother romances are pretty popular too, aren’t many sisters into younger pups?"

"No, no, no, even rabbits don’t eat the grass by their own burrows, you must not misunderstand."

Fan Qing smiled faintly, touching her right hand, "I’m just joking, Sister Mianmian, don’t take it to heart, okay!"

Jhiang Yuan could sense the tension in the air, something must have happened somewhere she didn’t know about.

"Alright, Mianmian has known Kaiyang for so long now, if there were any feelings, they would have surfaced by now.

Qingqing, don’t overthink it.

Besides, there are many who are chasing after Mianmian."

"Yeah, Sister Mianmian is so beautiful, I believe that."

"Right, Qingqing, are you aware of the snow shoveling downstairs?"

"I know, someone came up and notified us, said it was a resident from the eighth floor, I didn’t go down."

The eighth floor, could it be Old Xu.

Ye Mianmian also thought of this possibility and showed surprise in her eyes.

"What did he look like, do you remember?"

"About forty or fifty years old, neither fat nor thin, and because he was wearing a mask, I didn’t pay much attention, why do you ask, Sister Yuan?"

"Qingqing, we’re on the same side now, there are some things I won’t keep from you.

Before you came here, there was a building manager called Sun Yian.

He often targeted us and even brought quite a few people over to gang up on us, but we fought back and defeated them.

It’s very likely that he had someone behind him, which is Old Wu from 1202, and also Old Xu from the eighth floor, the person who came to notify you."

Jhiang Yuan explained it this way, and she also felt a bit scared, as Zhang Kaiyang had also mentioned this matter to her briefly.

"Goodness, he seemed so amiable at the time, I had no idea there was this hidden issue.

When Kaiyang left, he told me to stay inside no matter what, so I didn’t go out.

Initially, I didn’t even want to open the door, but he kept knocking persistently."

Thinking back, it might have been a probing attempt, it’s a good thing I didn’t say everyone was out, otherwise it would have shown weakness.

"My goodness, if I had let something slip, they might have gotten up to mischief!"

Fan Qing looked at Jhiang Yuan and Ye Mianmian, her palms beginning to sweat.

"They’ve had these kinds of thoughts for more than a day or two, no one can be trusted."

Ye Mianmian spoke earnestly, making her involuntarily take in a breath of cold air.

"It’s okay, as long as everyone’s fine now, that’s all that matters. We need to be more careful in the future.

They didn’t come up to the twenty-first floor, did they?"

Jhiang Yuan was a bit puzzled, having been back for quite a while and feeling unwell, she hadn’t had time to ask her parents.

"They wanted to come, asked me to open the door. I said I would pass the message along, and then he went downstairs.

I remember, he specifically told me to make sure I informed you all."

"Who knows what these people are thinking, is this supposed to be a friendly gesture?"

Jhiang Yuan shook her head, she didn’t know either.

"Anyway, no matter who it is, don’t trust them.

We only come together because we face similar difficulties, but actually, everyone looks out for themselves.

We don’t intend to harm anyone, but we must not be without the caution of guarding against others!"

"Sister Yuan is right, take good care of yourself. I have some medicine at home, I’ll bring some over for you later."

"No need, there are plenty here."

Indeed, Ye Mianmian saw a lot of medicine on the dining table, so she didn’t insist.

Now, medicine is a very precious thing.

The two of them didn’t linger and took their leave.

Jhiang Yuan felt somewhat perplexed, always feeling that Fan Qing seemed to harbour some hostility towards Ye Mianmian.

They hadn’t spent much time together, so she didn’t know the exact situation.

If that really was the case, living together and seeing each other all the time would be quite inconvenient.

"Darling, have they left?"

"Yes, they’ve gone, Mom. Did anyone come over while I was away these past couple of days?"

When the three of them had been talking earlier, Qin Yue had poured water for everyone and then returned to her room.

She always felt awkward being around when the young people were chatting, so she didn’t know the specifics of what they discussed.

"Qingqing came over, said the people downstairs wanted help with snow removal. Your dad said he was worried about leaving Xiao Nuan and me home alone, so he didn’t go down."

"Yeah, it’s just as well he didn’t go down. Who knows what kind of people are down there, eyeing us like tigers stalking their prey."

"Oh, by the way, darling, your dad brought home so much meat yesterday, said it was wolf meat. Can that even be eaten?"

Uh...

"It should be edible, I’ve never tried it either. Why don’t we have hotpot tonight?"

"Hotpot is such a waste of vegetables. That casserole dish you made last time was pretty good.

It included some staple food and wasn’t short of ingredients."

"Okay, then let’s go with that..."

After deciding, Qin Yue took a chunk of wolf meat to thaw.

It was frozen solid outside, hard enough to resist a knife.

Jhiang Yuan intended to cook herself, using some vegetables from her space.

The problem was, Qin Yue was always around and she didn’t want to make her uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the kitchen was separated from the dining table by a door, so she could use it sneakily.

Slice the wolf meat thinly and blanch it in hot water first.

Such wild animals might carry parasites, so it’s best not to cook them directly.

Gather all the greens needed, then nicely arrange them in the pot.

Jhiang Yuan placed some baby bok choy and lettuce at the bottom, followed by mung bean sprouts, mushrooms, rehydrated daylilies with glass noodles, wood ear fungus, and tofu skin on top.

These ingredients above were no problem; Qin Yue was aware of them.

Then, heat oil in a wok, stir-fry the sliced wolf meat briefly, add some hotpot base and broad bean paste to create a red chili oil, then toss in scallions and garlic.

Finally, pour water in, bring to a boil, and season with soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken bouillon, and salt.

Pour the prepared broth over the greens, light the alcohol burner underneath, and wait for it to come to a lively boil.

Qin Yue steamed some rice and served it with sweet and sour radish.

"Wow, this wolf meat is really good too, firmer than pork and quite fragrant. Give it a try..."

This was Jhiang Yuan’s first time eating it, and she found the experience quite pleasant.

Jhiang Xingzhi and Qin Yue also thought it was good and even gave Xiao Nuan a couple of slices.

The family finished dinner in high spirits. Since she hadn’t recovered yet, her daughter would continue to sleep with grandma for the time being.

Eating mung bean sprouts had given her an idea.

She went up to the attic and took out some mung beans, soybeans, and red beans...

These could serve as seeds to be planted directly in her space.

The rice previously soaked was quite damp now. They had cultivated it back in her hometown, but now she didn’t want to go through all that trouble.

She just scattered the seeds directly onto the ground, foregoing the need for a seedbed altogether.

It was convenient, though how this would affect yield was an uncertainty.

After soaking the bean seeds and planting a small amount of rice, there was no more tilled land left.

She had no choice but to do this strenuous task, and surprisingly, breaking a sweat ended up making her feel much better.
