CHAPTER 92: CHAPTER 092: YOU WILL NEVER GUESS WHO IT IS
But he didn’t show it to Li Yuzhu, instead, he closed the door.
"It’s being cut." he said.
Seeing Mu Yuanxiu, Li Yuzhu suddenly remembered something important she had forgotten to remind him, "Look at me, I forgot to tell you something. You haven’t measured my body size yet."
Mu Yuanxiu looked her over, slightly raised his eyebrows, "No need to measure, I can tell just by looking."
Li Yuzhu was surprised, "Oh? Really?"
"Old craftsmen don’t need to measure." Mu Yuanxiu said quite casually.
Li Yuzhu nodded, "Alright, it seems I was overthinking it."
The clothes of this time were loose; as long as the height is right, the size wouldn’t be too off.
For people who are particularly fat or thin, the size requires a little more attention.
People with average builds, whether waist thin or thick, bust large or small, could completely mix and match.
After all, it’s a casual household clothing, not a formal outfit for a significant occasion, so as long as it wore well, Li Yuzhu didn’t mind.
"By the way, I made lunch for you, come take a look." Li Yuzhu waved at him and walked toward the small kitchen.
Mu Yuanxiu had already smelled the aroma of the dishes and followed her to the kitchen.
As soon as he entered the room, Mu Yuanxiu saw three dishes placed on the small dining table by the window.
A bowl of golden, tender steamed eggs, a bowl of dried radish stir-fried with bacon, and a bowl of dried bamboo shoots stir-fried with bacon.
Simple home dishes, yet they were made extraordinarily exquisite.
The colors of the dishes were pleasing to the eye, whetting his appetite.
And from the pot, even the fragrance of the rice was different from other homes.
Seeing him looking towards the pot, Li Yuzhu said proudly, "What’s in the pot is rice with bamboo leaves, come take a look."
Li Yuzhu walked over and lifted the pot cover.
Mu Yuanxiu followed to look, only to see the pot lined with green bamboo leaves, with steamed rice piled on top.
No wonder the room was full of the fragrance of bamboo leaves.
"How are the dishes I made?" Li Yuzhu asked Mu Yuanxiu with a proud smile on her lips.
Mu Yuanxiu smiled, "Very good."
"Alright, I’ll come back in the afternoon to make dinner for you, consider it our trade for today." Li Yuzhu patted her sleeves and smiled slightly.
Mu Yuanxiu did not object, "Okay."
"Then I’ll head back now." Li Yuzhu waved to him.
Holding an empty basket and a hoe, Li Yuzhu left Mu Yuanxiu’s home. Her steps were light as she wandered into the forest to look for wild vegetables.
Mu Yuanxiu watched her walk off into the distance and then returned to his bedroom.
He picked up the clothes to inspect them, a smile gradually appearing on his lips.
.
Li Yuzhu dug a basket full of shepherd’s purse in the forest and picked up six wild eggs. Just in time, it was noon when she returned to the cave to make lunch.
The others hadn’t returned yet.
At that time, Princess Consort Luling was playing with the two children.
Li Yuzhu played with her little nephew for a while and then started to wash her hands and cook.
With shepherd’s purse and wild eggs, making shepherd’s purse dumplings seemed perfect.
Shepherd’s purse was washed and chopped into small pieces, salted for a moment, the excess water drained, then mixed with a bit of vegetable oil for stir-fries.
After heating the stove, the wild eggs were stir-fried until cooked and scattered, then mixed with the marinated shepherd’s purse, adding a little salt and pepper set aside.
She found another large clay basin, poured in some flour, and mixed it with water to make dough.
The dumplings had just been wrapped when the Great Princess, the Second Princess, and Xue Family returned.
Xue Family came over and asked urgently, "Little sister, what’s inside those dumplings?"
"Wild vegetables!" Li Yuzhu answered with some annoyance.
"Wild vegetables again..." The Second Princess walked away dejectedly, "I really want to eat meat..."
Xue Family pursed her lips, too lazy even to look.
The Great Princess put down the hoe and quickly walked over to Li Yuzhu, saying, "Third sister, when we were digging wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain, we met someone you would never guess who it was."
