Chapter 2524: Cooking
"You want to cook?" Long Qian Xing was stunned when he heard Nan Hua's words. After that he looked at Nan Hua's stomach and frowned. "But…"
"Brother Long, I'm only two months pregnant at most and there's no visual sign yet," Nan Hua said slowly before Long Qian Xing using her pregnancy to stop her. "Besides, there are many people who are still working even when they're pregnant and only after they're close to delivery would they stop."
Nan Hua has never been a delicate woman.
She could fight on the battlefield even when she was heavily injured, still killing countless people and so on.
Now that she was only in the early stages of her pregnancy, there was truly no need for her to cease working. She will be more careful, that's all, but she would not stop working completely.
It was not necessary for her to do so.
And Nan Hua was also unwilling to stop.
Cooking could only be considered to be a light job and Nan Hua didn't think that it would be necessary for her to stop.
"Ok." Long Qian Xing could only relent and looked at Nan Hua. "But I'll accompany you."
Nan Hua nodded. "Yes."
She didn't really mind Long Qian Xing accompanying her. For her, there was not much difference between Long Qian Xing being there or not.
In that way, the two of them headed to the kitchen.
Old Madam Long, who heard her grandson and granddaughter in law's return, wanted to see the two of them. But after she heard that the two of them headed to the kitchen together, Old Madam Long stopped in her track.
She shook her head in amusement.
"Let them go and there's no need to bother them."
Even after getting married, the two of them have such a good relationship with each other. She felt that this was really good and it meant that she didn't have to worry about the situation in the household.
For her, having such a peaceful and harmonious family is simply the best.
Rather than watching those annoying people who made trouble all day long, a peaceful situation is simply the best.
"What's that old man has been doing lately?" Old Madam Long remembered something and asked her servants.
In the past few weeks, Old Master Long kept on coming to the Long Family Residence and quarreled with Old Madam Long. The two old people were busy arguing with each other to the point that the servants were used to hear the scolding from these two.
But at the same time, they also understood that the relationship between these two people were actually really good. So no one tried to bother when these two people started the next round of scolding again.
It would be better to stay away.
"Old Master Nan bought many things and is on the way here, Old Madam."
Old Madam Long's face turned black when she heard that.
She knew very well that Old Master Nan should be preparing the few things that their great grandchildren might need, but she didn't need Old Master Nan to prepare things.
She's also very rich!
"Buy some things too before he come!"
"Yes, Old Madam."
In this way, when Old Master Nan came, the two old people ended up arguing with each other for a long time again.
For this matter, the servants didn't even inform Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua.
The two of them were spending their time in the kitchen and no servants dared to come and disturb them.
"Add more firewood," Nan Hua said to Long Qian Xing, who was sitting beside the fire not far from her.
The kitchen in this era required them to add firewood to control the fire and it was not as easy to operate as the kitchen in the modern era. Usually, there would be servants who would help them to control the fire or if they were capable enough, they could do it themselves.
Long Ai Ning was one of the few who could do it.
She was really fast and dexterous when cooking, able to make various dishes at the same time.
As for how she control the time…
Nan Hua never asked.
She felt that Long Ai Ning was simply born and raised in the kitchen just from how familiar she was with those actions.
"Yes," Long Qian Xing replied and add a few more woods.
Nan Hua rarely cooked in the kitchen. Most of the time, she would cook outside by making a small campfire to roast some dishes. Now that they were in the kitchen and Long Qian Xing was here, it was more convenient to ask him to help a bit.
After that, Nan Hua focused her attention on the dishes in front of her, cutting the vegetables and also cooked on the pot.
Her movements were fast.
Moreover, Nan Hua completely focused her attention on cooking.
Long Qian Xing watched from the side, looking fascinated. Some people said that a person was the most attractive when they were focused on doing something. And at this moment, Long Qian Xing really felt that way.
Nan Hua, who was seriously cooking, was really attractive.
He really wanted to hug her and held her close to him.
If it was not because Nan Hua was busy cooking, Long Qian Xing would have done so.
But he had to restrain himself and all that could be seen was the gentle smile he had when he was looking at Nan Hua. Moreover, his eyes would follow Nan Hua's movement closely as if he wanted to stay beside her all the time.
Lou, who wanted to come and inform Long Qian Xing about the fact that Old Madam Long and Old Master Nan were looking for them, stopped when he saw Long Qian Xing's expression and Nan Hua who was busy cooking.
The next moment, he retreated from the kitchen.
Whoever saw that scene, no one would have the heart to destroy it.
