CHAPTER 1046: 1123: BREAKING THE RULE FOR THE SICKLY PERSON

This little brat pours his heart out to others, especially that sickly young man. Just looking at him makes him feel unlucky. Why does Yi Ran hold that person in such high regard?

Even...

Since that incident back then, this Yi kid has become disinterested in women and is even repulsed by them, yet he made an exception for that sickly person.

Even though that sickly person is with a woman, Yi Ran tolerated it.

His old man was puzzled too, what trick did that sickly person use to make Yi Ran seem like he was possessed?

****

The place where Elder Sun lives is particularly remote, with only a few households nearby. But was it Dong Huiying and Liang Shuyu’s good fortune?

Yi Ran sent Uncle Jiang out to buy cooked food, and Uncle Jiang actually bought a pot of freshly made chicken soup and a few pieces of yeast cake from a farmer’s wife.

When Uncle Jiang returned with the food, Yi Ran had just enjoyed a hearty meal.

Elder Sun’s cooking skills were extraordinary. If he weren’t so obsessed with The Arts of Witch Gu, he could have opened a restaurant as a Cook and made a fortune. Yi Ran recalled a past event.

It was when he was young, the first time he evaded the guards and spies around him, sneaked out in disguise to go to Dajin.

When he was young, he had some opportunities and was taken as the last Disciple by the previous Sect Master of the Innocence Sect. But before the age of eight, he lived in Dayuan, until at eight, he went to Dajin, partly to recognize the sect he had acknowledged.

It was then that he saw a man with reputed high status, seemingly a relative of the Jin dynasty, extravagantly going to find Elder Sun.

The man traveled a long way, just to have Elder Sun cook him a meal, which was quite amusing.

But from this, one could see how outstanding Elder Sun’s cooking skills were.

Yi Ran helped Elder Sun clear the table and wash the dishes, discovering a pot with soup still simmering. He paused slightly, then sighed. However, being the naturally cheerful person he might be, he quickly forgot about it, carrying the food Uncle Jiang bought from outside to find the couple busy reading books in the west room.

***

When Yi Ran arrived, the couple had already gone through a quarter of the books in the room, with three-quarters left. But this was unknown to Yi Ran, otherwise, he would have been greatly surprised.

"Come, come, come, eat quickly, or this chicken soup will be too cold to drink."

Shu Yu glanced at the chicken soup and then frowned.

At this moment, Yi Ran saw Dong Huiying flipping through books almost at lightning speed, finishing one and then starting the next.

Yi Ran was stunned, thinking this person was really strange, flipping through books like this, skimming over without getting anything meaningful, just wasting time.

"Thank you," Shu Yu glanced at his spousal master, not very interested in this farm-style stove-boiled chicken soup. Firstly, he didn’t like eating outside food, always feeling it wasn’t very clean. Of course, in extraordinary times, they could make exceptions, having stayed in inns and visited restaurants, usually enduring the disgust to eat.

Secondly, the world’s delicacies were almost all stored within his own house.

The spousal master’s cooking skills were extraordinary; as long as the ingredients were complete, no matter what he wanted to eat, the spousal master could prepare it.

To put it simply, it’s just that his spoiled stomach has been pampered by the spousal master.

However, even though he didn’t want to eat, he cared about his spousal master, afraid she would starve herself.

"Huiying, take a break, eat first, and then continue reading."
