The wind in Northern Mulberry City stopped, and the moon hung in the sky.

Facing the cold moon, the lights were green.

Yun Qian sat at the dining table with one hand covering her abdomen. No one knew what she was thinking.

“As expected, the weather is cold. I just want to eat something hot.” Xu Chang’an smiled and moved the steamer from the kitchen to the hall. He lifted the bamboo basket on the table in front of Yun Qian.

There were seven or eight buns in the steamer. They were steaming hot and standing on the steamer cloth.

They were small and exquisite. Like pagodas, they were translucent, sparkling and yellow. A fragrance spread out from their peaks.

“How is it?” Xu Chang’an looked at Yun Qian proudly. He felt that his skills were getting better and better. The creases on the bun were uniform and very beautiful.

“I’m hungry.” Yun Qian stared at the soup dumplings.

“They might be a little hot. Be careful.”

“I know.” Yun Qian picked up a soup dumpling skillfully and opened it with her teeth. She sucked the soup inside and dipped the opening into the aged vinegar on the table. She chewed slowly and nodded.

“How does it taste?” Xu Changan asked impatiently.

“Here we go again.” Yun Qian looked at Xu Chang’an’s smug expression and said, “It’s as delicious as ever.”

“I’m a cook. This is what I want to hear. Moreover, I can’t get tired of hearing it.” Xu Chang’an smiled, picked up a soup dumpling, and took a slow bite.

The meat soup was boiled together with the meat skin, so it could be condensed into a bun filling. Some minced meat could be seen in the soup, and the soup and fragrance slowly overflowed.

It was fragrant, sweet, and hot.

Xu Chang’an looked at Yun Qian, who was enjoying her dinner with narrowed eyes, and thought that this soup bun tasted like his Miss Yun.

“Don’t just eat buns. I also prepared white lotus root lotus seed soup. Miss, your stomach isn’t very good. White lotus roots nourish your energy.” Xu Chang’an gently pushed the porcelain bowl in front of Yun Qian.

Yun Qian nodded and took a sip of the lotus seed soup. To her surprise, she realized that the faint bitterness of the lotus seed almost instantly cleared the remaining grease on the meat bun.

Obviously, Xu Chang’an had dealt with this carefully.

“You eat too. Why are you looking at me?” Yun Qian put down her chopsticks.

“I’m enjoying a feast for the eyes.” Xu Chang’an smiled.

Yun Qian frowned. “Eat.”

“Oh.”

Xu Chang’an stopped teasing Yun Qian and pushed a plate of chili oil in front of him. The bun rolled up and was stuffed into his mouth.

Yun Qian could not eat spicy food, but he liked it very much.

With the lotus seed soup and his wife’s beauty, Xu Chang’an felt that his life was already complete.

“Yes?”

At this moment, Xu Chang’an suddenly noticed something. He looked out of the window and saw a little girl on the tree in the courtyard next door. Her eyes were shining as she looked straight at him.

Who else could it be but Gu Qiancheng?

Xu Chang’an narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn’t like being peeked at, but that girl was basically looking at him openly.

Xu Chang’an looked at the little girl squatting on the tree like a cat and blinked.

‘Did she… gulp?’

Xu Chang’an gave Yun Qian a look, then picked up a steamer and walked out.

Seeing Xu Chang’an walk out, Gu Qiancheng subconsciously wanted to jump off the tree. However, the moment she moved, the bell on her waist rang.

“Miss, we meet again.” Xu Chang’an walked to the wall of the courtyard and looked up at Gu Qiancheng, who was sitting on a tree.

“I… I’m here admiring the moon. Why are you disturbing my mood?” Gu Qiancheng said.

She was still being stubborn.

Xu Changan shook his head and raised the steamer in his hand. He asked, “Do you want to eat?”

“I…” Gu Qiancheng was actually craving it. She said,” No, I’m going out for dinner. ”

Xu Chang’an thought to himself, didn’t she just say that she wanted to admire the moon?

“Two taels of silver.” Xu Chang’an narrowed his eyes.

“Sure. I’m too lazy to go out. Keep the change.” Silver light flashed across Gu Qiancheng’s hand. She threw down the silver and took the steamer in Xu Chang’an’s hand.

When Xu Chang’an came back to his senses, Gu Qiancheng had already disappeared.

Outside the wall, some bells rang. She said, “I’ll return the steamer.”

Xu Chang’an shook his head and returned to the room. He pulled the curtain in front of the window and sat down beside Yun Qian.

“Do you like her?” Yun Qian felt that Gu Qiancheng was quite cute. Although she was a little young, men should like her.

“No.” Xu Chang’an shook his head. Who would like a peeping tom?

“Then why did you give her buns to eat?” Yun Qian was puzzled. Her husband was not such a good person.

“How should I put it?” Xu Chang’an narrowed his eyes and said, “She’s one of Manager Zhu’s people. It’s not a bad thing to interact with her. It’s best if we can form a good relationship.”

Good relationship?

Yun Qian blinked, and the image of the green-eyed tiger that had been dismembered flashed across her mind.

Xu Chang’an smiled. “I also want to test her personality. She seems like a child. Alright, let’s continue eating.”

“Yeah.”

Gu Qiancheng returned to her room.

She originally wanted to go out for a walk, but she casually took a look at Xu Chang’an’s courtyard and realized that Yun Qian was eating very well. She was very curious about the taste, so she looked for a while longer. She did not expect Xu Chang’an to discover it.

Logically speaking, she was one realm higher than Xu Chang’an and shouldn’t have been discovered.

“Sister Yun, you eat so well. What will it taste like?”

The little girl took a deep breath.

Opening the steamer, the fragrance entered Gu Qiancheng’s nose. She could not wait to take out a soup dumpling. After tilting her head and taking a bite, the soup splashed against her face and onto her shoulders.

Gu Qiancheng’s eyes lit up. After swallowing, she took the soup dumplings. This time… she was much more careful.

As the sweet juice entered her mouth, Gu Qiancheng narrowed her eyes like a cat, revealing a blissful expression.

It smelled so good.

It was even better than the snacks made by Second Mother.

“What a strange man.”

Gu Qiancheng was a little curious about Xu Chang’an.

… .

It was very quiet during the meal between husband and wife.

Yun Qian looked at Xu Chang’an eating the porridge and gently pinched the corner of her dress.

If Xu Chang’an was a girl, his personality and skills would be perfect. Yun Qian felt that her husband was meticulous and virtuous. He was the perfect person to be a wife.

Even compared to the female leads in his novels, he was not inferior.

But he was a man.

Yun Qian didn’t feel anything in the past. After reading the story written by Xu Chang’an and understanding the woman in his “heart”, she felt that she, who had nothing to learn and relied on her husband for everything, wasn’t worthy of being a wife.

Yun Qian put down her chopsticks and said seriously, “I want to learn cooking too.”
