Looking at his children, Jiang Ying felt happy.

He had never thought that he would have a child, or even a child with Ning Yue. It felt good.

“Why are they eating pastries?” Ning Yue couldn’t help but purse her lips as she looked at the pastries.

The pastries were delicious, but they were on the road. They would get tired of them. Fortunately, she was prepared.

At the thought of this, she went to a carriage filled with things and dug out charcoal, pots, and some simple stands. These were all things from her space, but they were common on the streets.

Jiang Ying wanted to step forward to help, but other than knowing how to carry things, he didn’t know anything else. He could only watch Ning Yue do it.

After a while, a simple stove was set up.

“Use this charcoal to keep you warm. Get someone to get some firewood later,” Ning Yue said to Jiang Ying.

When Jiang Ying heard this, he hurriedly called two guards to find firewood. The two guards who were called looked at each other.

They were guards, not woodcutters.

However, since their master had ordered it, they still had to go.

Then, Ning Yue took out a few folding wooden tables and folding cutting board tools. Jiang Ying was dumbfounded.

Jiang Ying looked at Ning Yue’s skilled movements. For some reason, he felt that Ning Yue seemed to live outdoors all year round.

Ning Yue did not know what Jiang Ying was thinking. After taking out the food and tools, she began to get busy with Madam He.

Initially, the two guards had some complaints because they had been called to chop firewood. However, when they saw that Ning Yue was about to prepare a sumptuous dinner, the complaints in their hearts disappeared.

Soon, lunch for nearly twenty people was ready.

Of course, there was also Gu Yu’s favorite mutton.

People in ancient times did not know how to handle mutton. The good mutton was very thick.

Ever since Ning Yue said that she knew how to make it and it was delicious, Gu Yu had completely fallen in love with this taste.

After eating Ning Yue’s food, he was no longer in the mood to eat outside.

The few guards were especially touched by the food. They had never thought that with their status, they could eat from the same pot as their master.

These things were also really delicious!

That afternoon, everyone finished their food.

These guards were also honest people. They went to find clean spring water and even helped Ning Yue pack a lot.

Ning Yue looked at these guards and simply took out the spiritual spring water to brew tea.

After eating, he would have some tea to digest.

Most of the tea that ancient people drank was green tea. She took out black tea, which also tasted good. After the tea was brewed, it was bright red, and everyone was envious.

“If it weren’t for the fact that we were on the road, I would have brought out my fruit wine to share,” Ning Yue said with a smile.

After entering the capital, she saw someone selling wild grapes on the way, so she bought some back to make wine. It wasn’t much, just two or three wine jars.

“It’s fine. It’s our honor to be able to eat Miss Ning’s dishes in our lives,” a guard who had eaten his fill said happily.

It was worth it to be able to eat such delicious food in this lifetime!

“Here, these snacks are for you.” Ning Yue took a large bag of melon seeds and peanuts.

Jiang Ying’s eyes widened. He had never eaten them before, but she had given it to them!

When Ning Yue saw him like this, she couldn’t help but laugh. She also threw a few bags to Jiang Ying. “It’s just some snacks. Eat slowly.”

Jiang Ying, who had received the snacks, was especially happy. Look, he had received so many. These dozen or so guards each had two small bags, while he alone had six small bags.

Seeing Jiang Ying’s smug expression, Ning Yue smiled even more happily. This Jiang Ying was like a child.

They walked and stopped for more than three days before arriving at Lai Fu Village on the fourth day.

Not long after they arrived at the village entrance, the news of their return spread. When the people who had rushed over to watch the commotion saw the dozen or so carriages, they were all dumbfounded. They had lived for so long, but they had never seen such a scene.

It was said that gold was everywhere in the capital. It was indeed true! After this trip, Ning Yue had brought back more than ten carriages. Oh my god!
