Chapter 528 A Yue Goes to Sea
Xu Yiyi instructed, "After breakfast, you need to go to the Lin residence to make preparations. The appetizers must be prepared before the banquet begins."
As she spoke, she went into the kitchen and quickly started a fire to make breakfast.
Fatty Wang kept muttering to himself, which was a sign of his nervousness.
When the water in the pot was boiling, Xu Yi put the rinsed rice in.
The porridge was simmering in the pot. She took a few eggs, cracked them on the edge of the bowl, and stirred them with chopsticks. When the porridge was almost ready, she poured the mixture slowly along the edge of the pot, and egg flowers floated to the surface.
She sprinkled some fine salt and added a few drops of sesame oil, and the aroma wafted out.
The milk in Wuyuan also heated up.
Pour the milky white liquid into a small copper pot and simmer it slowly over a low flame, preventing it from boiling.
The little kid was already awake and sitting in a specially made high wooden chair. She had put him in the kitchen, where he was patting the board in front of him with his chubby little hands and staring intently at the steaming pot.
Xu Yi tested the temperature, and it was just right, so she poured it into a small pot with a spout and handed it over.
This was specially made by Lao Lu for Wu Yuan, so it would be convenient for him to drink milk.
Wu Yuan held the pot and drank with gusto, not caring about the white foam leaking from the corners of his mouth.
Sihai was groggily woken up and went to wash up with Sanchuan.
The icy water touched my face, instantly waking me up.
When he got close to Wu Yuan, he watched him drink with longing eyes and tugged at Xu Yiyi's sleeve: "Big sister, I want to drink that too."
Xu Yiyi poured him a bowl as well.
He excitedly picked it up, took a big gulp, and felt like spitting it out but dared not.
In the end, I swallowed it.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! It tastes awful! Just like goat's milk."
Xu Yi chuckled at his reaction, took his bowl, added some warm water, and then stirred in some honey with a small spoon.
Handing it to him again: "Want to try it again?"
The little kid was skeptical. He took a small sip, blinked, then took a big gulp and nodded.
"It tastes better now!"
As he spoke, he held the bowl and sipped the water slowly, like a cat licking water.
Sanchuan had already served himself some porridge and was eating it quietly with a little bit of pickled vegetables.
Old Lu also strolled in, scooped up a bowl of porridge for himself, and slurped it down loudly.
After breakfast, the bowls and chopsticks were put into a wooden basin to soak.
Fatty Wang couldn't sit still any longer, so he packed his things and came out.
"Master, shall I head over now?"
Fatty Wang looked at Xu Yiyi and could tell that his voice was tense.
“Go ahead,” Xu Yi nodded. “Don’t panic, just do what you practiced last night. It’s still early, just be careful.”
Fatty Wang nodded, took a deep breath, and straightened his back as if he were going to war.
Old Lu asked, "When are you going?"
"No rush, it's not even fully light yet."
Since they were guests at the banquet and didn't have to work, they naturally had to go later.
After saying that, she turned and went back into the house, where she still needed to change the children into neat clothes that would be appropriate for guests.
……
When it was time to leave, Xu Yiyi dressed her three younger brothers in clean and neat clothes, and tidied her own hair.
Holding Wuyuan, and leading Sanchuan and Sihai, they waited for a long time but still couldn't see Ayue.
"Big sister, where is my master?"
The world looks up to ask.
Xu Yiyi frowned slightly. Last night, A-Yue had stayed here with them, but she was called away after she had just fallen asleep. Before leaving, she was told that she would go to the Lin residence with A-Yue today.
Ah Yue is always punctual; something must have happened to her.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Just then, someone came in from outside.
A sailor delivered a message from A-Yue, saying that she had gone out to sea to patrol before dawn.
Patrol at sea?
Xu Yiyi's mind raced.
If it were just a routine patrol, Ah Yue wouldn't have missed mentioning it last night.
So rushed...
San Chuan seemed to sense something and asked in a low voice, "Big sister, are there pirates coming?"
Xu Yiyi composed herself, looked down at him and smiled gently: "Don't overthink it, it's probably just a routine patrol that happened to be there."
She spoke calmly, not wanting the children to worry, "Ah Yue has important business to attend to, we'll go by ourselves."
Even so, she couldn't help but tighten her grip on Wu Yuan's arm.
I looked up at the sky in the direction of the city's dock, where the sky was clear and cloudless.
But who can say for sure what will happen at sea?
"Let's go."
Without further delay, she led the two children out of the house.
