Chapter 51 -51 Someone is Looking for You Outside the Gate

There was a Sichuan pepper tree in the space, and Luo Qiao picked some leaves. She had prepared the cornmeal in advance, dividing it into two portions to let it rest, with one portion mixed with Sichuan pepper leaves, pepper powder, salt, and also two eggs.

The eggs were from wild chickens she had caught in the mountains and placed in the space; they were enough to satisfy her cravings for now, and once the chicks she was raising started to lay eggs, she could eat them to her heart’s content.

Just thinking about it made her happy, and she couldn’t help humming a song while cooking.

She handled the fish, cut it into pieces, and marinated it; by the time it stewed, it would be perfect to eat with the pancakes. She had enjoyed this meal with her classmates at a farmhouse restaurant before, and the taste was truly great.

Once she finished preparing the side ingredients and the fish was marinated enough, she started working on the pancake dough again after setting the fish to stew.

She made one portion savory and the other plain. With a slap-slap-slap, the pancakes adhered to the pan, ready to be served hot from the stove.

She removed a stick of wood from the stove to lower the flame, then she closed the main door and entered her space to take a bath. By the time she had finished cleaning up and serving the food, it was just ready to come off the stove.

She served some into a porcelain basin and picked out a dozen pancakes to wrap in a steaming cloth, locking the door before heading to Lu Yichen’s house.

Lu Yichen had just gotten home not long ago. For the past few days, they had all been helping out at the commune, transporting various production materials back from the county. He was shaking dust from his jacket at the front door when he saw Luo Qiao approaching with the porcelain basin.

As Luo Qiao got closer, she said, “Brother Lu, I made some pancakes and brought you some to try. Now you don’t have to bother to cook.”

Lu Yichen said, “Didn’t I tell you there’s no need to send food over anymore? If I eat your cooking a few more times, I’m afraid my stomach will get spoiled.”

Luo Qiao laughed upon hearing that, “You helped me with so much firewood the other day, Brother Lu, I can’t just take it for nothing. This is a matter of give and take, and at least I can present food with some confidence.”

After arranging everything, she said, “Brother Lu, I made some stewed fish for you. Wash your hands and eat while it’s hot; it won’t taste good once it turns cold. I’ll leave now.”

Since she had already delivered the meal, it seemed pointless to make any fuss. However, watching Luo Qiao walk away, Lu Yichen suddenly smiled.

He and this little girl had somewhat similar temperaments; neither wanted to take advantage of others for nothing. He chuckled and shook his head, well, since it was delivered, he might as well eat. Besides, the young girl hadn’t lied—the food really was delicious and impressive.

After washing his hands and just reaching the kitchen door, a delicious aroma hit his nose. The young girl might not be big, but her cooking skills were genuinely remarkable.

Lu Yichen happily finished a whole basin of stewed fish, with only two pancakes left. He then comfortably belched.

He had just finished tidying up the basin and bowls and was about to heat some water in the pot to fill his thermos when he heard someone knocking at the front door.

The only people who visited him were the brigade leader, the secretary, and Luo Qiao a few times. He didn’t have much interaction with the other villagers, mainly because he always had a cold expression that scared people.

Moreover, since he hadn’t been in the village for very long, the villagers were not very familiar with him, so it was quite a surprise to hear someone knocking.

As he walked towards the door, Lu Yichen called out, “Who’s there?”

He asked but heard no reply.

Arriving at the front door to see a girl standing outside, Lu Yichen asked with a frown, “Who are you?”

The girl was fidgeting with the hem of her dress, looking somewhat embarrassed as she said, “Brother Lu, my name is Gao Taohua, I’m eighteen this year. I, uh, I wanted to ask, what do you think of me?”
