Chapter 245: A Good Night Is Short

Just came out of the prison, Leng Wan hadn't figured out the situation yet.

She just looked at Fu Jiulan and Gu Xiaoxianggong, and then looked at the Wu family not far from the two, with a little doubt in her eyes.

"Wu is willing to testify, so you can come out."

A gust of wind blew, Leng Wan's hair was in such a mess, and Fu Jiulan stretched out his hand to help her tidy it up.

Nodding thoughtfully, Leng Wan walked in front of Wu and Xiao Ruyi.

"Are your injuries healing?"

"Thanks to you, it's much better."

Wu clutched his chest, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.

His eyes fell on Ruyi's frightened little face again, and before Leng Wan could speak, Wu quickly reached out and dragged her.

"Ruyi, call Madame quickly."

"Ma'am."

With a timid cry, Ruyi retracted behind Wu again.

Because of Wang Er, almost no one in that alley was willing to associate with them.

Ruyi sometimes wants to play with other children, but is always pushed away.

In the long run, Ruyi will become less affectionate.

Compared with going out, she prefers to stay in the dilapidated courtyard at home and protect her mother.

"Wang Er, he ......"

Turning his head to look at Fu Jiulan, Leng Wan was interrupted by him as soon as he spoke.

"Exiled from Kyoto, he will never come back in this life."

This is a satisfactory result, nodding, Leng Wan didn't say anything more.

"Let's go home."

I took a deep breath, the air outside was much fresher, and finally there was no smell of rats.

Several people went back to the shop together, and Leng Wan realized that Fu Jiulan had not been idle in the past few days, and cleaned up the shop.

"I asked the servant to order a meal, and it will be delivered in a moment. Tonight...... Can I stay and eat?"

It was obvious that Gu Xiaoxianggong was the east, but when he looked at Leng Wan, he still used a pleading tone.

"Everyone has worked hard these days, so I'll invite you to this meal. You don't have to go to the restaurant to order food, I'll let you eat something different tonight."

The weather is getting colder, and Leng Wan suddenly wants to eat hot pot.

Although Fu Jiulan hadn't told her anything, seeing that Gu Xiaoxianggong was present and dressed so strangely, Leng Wan guessed that he was probably also involved in rescuing her.

Since this shop was in Leng Wan's hands, it seemed to be the first time that it was so lively.

The tables in the hall were put together to form one large table.

And there were candles on both sides, and the whole room became bright.

In the middle of the table lay two copper pots, and under the pot was a small copper stove with a charcoal fire in it.

"Gollum."

The charcoal fire boiled the soup in the copper pot and made a happy sound.

At this time, the red soup, chili, chopped green onion, garlic, and various spices in the pot are mixed together and boiled over and over again, giving off an attractive aroma.

"Mother, it's so fragrant!"

Holding the chopsticks, Xiao Ruyi was so hungry that she drooled.

"Wan Niang, what's boiling in this pot? Why does it smell so good?"

Everyone was aroused by the contents of the pot, and even Zhang Bingru, who has always boasted of being Sven, wanted to find out at this time.

"This thing is called hot pot, and it's used to be eaten with shabu.

As she spoke, Leng Wan filled a colander with a colander full of slices of meat and put them into the hot red soup in front of everyone.

After a while, the slices of meat in the red soup changed color, and there was a hint of meat in the aroma.

"Taste it."

The boiled meat slices were distributed to everyone's bowls, and coldly urged them to eat.

As soon as they put it in their mouths, everyone was attracted by the rich taste of the sliced meat.

"It's delicious!"

I've never eaten such a fragrant slice of meat, and Ruyi couldn't help but exclaim. Z.br>

Wu, who was a mother, hurriedly dragged her hard, and then hurriedly apologized to Leng Wan.

"Madam, I'm sorry, Ruyi is still young and ignorant. I didn't know it was an honor to sit at the same table with everyone, and it was so noisy."

"Don't worry."

Hooking the corners of his lips and smiling, he shook his head coldly and said.

"Children are still young, and it is normal to be curious when they see something new for the first time."

They are all people with children, and Leng Wan can understand the Wu family very well.

Turning his head, he saw that everyone had tasted the meat slices, only the one in Fu Jiulan's bowl had not moved.

Leng Wan couldn't help but bump him with her elbow and opened her mouth to urge.

"Taste it, it won't taste good when it's cold."

"Hmm."

After a while, Fu Jiulan put the meat slices into his mouth.

Sure enough, a spicy but very sweet taste hit the taste buds, and it made people warm up all over the body.

"How? Is it delicious?" Leng Wan asked excitedly.

"It's delicious."

Smiling, Fu Jiulan replied truthfully.

I don't know why, looking at Leng Wan, who was pulling everyone to eat hot pot today, Fu Jiulan suddenly had an illusion, as if the person in front of him was not from the same place as himself.

"Lady, how did you find out that there is such a way as hot pot for the ingredients?"

Putting down the chopsticks, Fu Jiulan asked.

"Uh......"

Leng Wan was not ready to speak, and was suddenly blocked by Fu Jiulan.

"This is what the old people taught me in the countryside before. Presumably, it is more convenient to eat this kind of food when the farm is busy."

casually found a reason, Leng Wan wanted to prevaricate the past.

"The old man in the village? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Gu Xiaoxianggong scratched his hair and couldn't help but be curious.

"You've been living in the Gu Mansion, how can you know about the people's sufferings outside?"

Giving him a blank look, Leng Wan really wanted to go up and punch him and shut him up.

"Let's cook some more greens and eat them."

Fortunately, Fu Jiulan diverted the topic in time, which made everyone divert their attention.

After eating, it was time to leave.

They were so happy eating that they forgot the time for a while, so it was curfew.

"How's that going to be?"

Gu Xiaoxianggong looked at the darkness outside and couldn't help but sigh.

The shop had just been rented, and it hadn't had time to be cleaned up, and there weren't even enough mattresses.

There are a lot of people tonight, and this shop may not be able to sleep.

After pondering for a long time, Leng Wan ran upstairs and hugged a lot of mattresses down.

"It's a pleasure for everyone to get together tonight, so let's just sit in the hall and keep warm while talking."

"That's a good idea." Gu Xiaoxianggong immediately agreed.

"Why don't I go to the backyard and keep it guarded by everyone."

Wu always felt that his identity was not worthy of sitting at the same table with everyone to eat, and even less worthy of chatting together.

"Men and women are together, what a system!"

Zhang Bingru still sticks to the rules, and his opinion is the greatest.

"What do you think?"

Leaned over and hugged Fu Jiulan's arm, and asked Leng Wan with anticipation.

Looking at her bright eyes illuminated by the candlelight, Fu Jiulan could only nod in agreement.

The end result is a group of people sitting on the floor with a quilt and talking.

For the first time, the Wu family discovered that the world without Wang Er was so beautiful.

Gu Xiaoxianggong also discovered for the first time that the night could be so short.
