Chapter 7708 All are of superior quality
They're not fools; everyone understands the logic. It's just that they always put themselves first.
Several aunts from Chizhuxing were catching river vegetables for Luo Bi, so it was understandable that Luo Bi treated them well. Logically speaking, it was the people from Luo Feifan's branch of the clan who should be catching river vegetables for Luo Bi, without expecting any payment.
Is it okay? No, I won't do it if I'm going to lose out.
These aunties had it tough too; they'd been craving the crispy vegetables for ages. But to avoid looking like gluttons, they all demurely tasted the crispy vegetables on Luo Ping's plate.
Luo Chang's mother didn't care about any of that. She believed that eating wild seafood, especially wild fish and shrimp with high nutritional value, was good for longevity, so she ate with Luo Ping and Luo Yan without any hesitation.
Luo Yan felt extremely distressed, as the crispy vegetables on her plate were visibly decreasing.
Luo Bi took the river vegetables to the riverbank. When the old patriarch of the Luo family saw her doing this, he called Zhan Hui and Luo Rui to come back by boat. It was very hard and dangerous for Chi Zhuxing's nieces-in-law to collect the river vegetables. It was right for Luo Bi to bring the river vegetables.
When the two boats reached the shore, Zhan Hui took the crab trap off the boat first, his face beaming with joy: "The river melon seeds in the middle of the river are of excellent quality. These river melon seeds are simply top-grade."
"How much have you caught?" Luo Qiang brandished his sword, intercepting the water balls thrown by the shrimp and crabs.
Zhan Hui glanced at the basin of water that Luo Rui had carried down: "Sixty or seventy jin."
In such a short time, the catch has been quite substantial. Luo Qiang was delighted. At this moment, the boats returned, and the attacks from the shrimp and crabs on the river weakened. The old patriarch Luo and Luo Qiang withdrew from the defensive formation.
The twenty Thunderflame Warriors continued their defense to prevent everyone from getting soaked by fish, shrimp, and crabs in the water.
The aunties were very happy. Luo Bi remembered their kindness, and all her fatigue disappeared. They all went to wash their hands with smiles. Luo Bi gave them a plate of crispy vegetables, and one plate also had exotic animal bones with meat on them.
Luo Bi prefers light flavors and river dishes, but others may not.
So, I served some of everything.
Luo Rui said, "I'll try some too."
Luo Bi suggested with a grin, "Let's get some more."
Luo Rui thought it was feasible and was about to take a step.
Luo Bi stopped Luo Rui from going and said to Zhan Hui with a smile, "Who is the son-in-law of our direct lineage again? If the son-in-law goes to serve the dishes, the aunties won't complain. It'll be too much trouble if someone else goes."
Zhan Hui: "..."
Just let him go directly; why ask who the son-in-law is?
Zhan Hui is truly a favored son-in-law; the entire direct lineage dotes on him.
Luo Qiang was also very satisfied with Zhan Hui, so he didn't want Zhan Hui to go. He put away the Jade Sword and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to get the food."
Luo Bi laughed uncontrollably, but Zhan Hui still went.
Luo Qiang was worried about Luo Bi, and Zhan Hui was also worried, fearing that Luo Qiang wouldn't know how to be flexible. Zhan Hui called Luo Rui to the kitchen to return the plates. Even the largest plates were not satisfactory to Zhan Hui.
Zhan Hui took the clips and held out his hand to Luo Rui: "Get me a basin."
Luo Rui was taken aback, then picked out a basin from several basins in the kitchen and handed it to Zhan Hui. Then, the two Thunderflame Warriors stood in front of the pot and picked through the dishes. This pot of crispy vegetables was simply amazing. Luo Bi and Guan Zhuting picked through the dishes once, and Zhan Hui and Luo Rui picked through the dishes again.
The Thunderflame Warriors love meat, so they put all the meaty beast bones into the bowl. The crispy fish was gone, but there were still some river vegetables, so they added some as well. In no time, there wasn't much left in the pot of crispy vegetables.
Tong Wan was waiting to go to the kitchen later to get some crispy dishes to eat. It would be foolish not to eat them. They were all on this mission together, so why shouldn't they eat the best ingredients? She shouldn't have let Luo Biru have her way; Luo Biru was deliberately preventing her from eating.
When Tong Wan took the plate and looked into the pot, she was dumbfounded. (End of Chapter)
