Zui Xiang Lou has three floors, including the lobby, private rooms on the second floor, and the owner’s residence on the third floor. There is also a backyard at the back.

As soon as the door was closed, Su Qinghe and his group decisively went up to the third floor.

Although the Bao family left in a hurry, there was nothing left in the room on the third floor. Most of the household items were taken away, which saved Su Qinghe a lot of time.

Four people were assigned to the job, and with three men there, both cleaning and making the bed were done quickly.

There are a total of 8 rooms on the third floor, which are located in opposite directions, with a corridor in the middle leading directly to the staircase.

Su Qinghe chose the room in the middle, Ji Yuan and Lin Xi's rooms were on her left and right respectively, and Ji Qingyu's room was next to Ji Yuan's.

By the time everything that needed to be cleaned up in the restaurant was done, it was already dark.

Fortunately, there were still some ingredients left in the kitchen, so Lin Xi made dinner for everyone.

At night, everyone returned to their rooms. Ji Qingyu saw that Su Qinghe did not go to his brother's room, so he tiptoed to Ji Yuan's door.

"Brother! It's me!" He knocked on the door gently and said in a low voice.

"Brother Yu?" Ji Yuan opened the door.

"What's up so late?"

"Something happened!" Ji Qingyu rushed in.

"What's the matter?" Ji Yuan closed the door helplessly and followed.

"Well...that is...do you still have the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine?" Ji Qingyu glanced around uncomfortably.

"Yes, there is, but the bruises on your body disappeared long ago, right? Why are you asking this?" Ji Yuan asked puzzledly.

"Oh! I accidentally bumped my back when I was making the bed today. It hurts a little now. It should be bruised!"

Ji Qingyu said this as he reached towards his back.

"Bumped? Then take off your clothes and I'll help you wipe it! You can't see it on your back!"

As Ji Yuan spoke, he turned around and took out a small porcelain bottle from the cabinet.

"Ah? No, no, it's so late, I can take it back and wipe it myself!" Ji Qingyu waved his hands quickly.

"And it won't get better even if I wipe it once. I can't ask you for help every day!"

"You are my brother, it's strange to say these things!"

Ji Yuan disagreed and pulled him to the bedside to untie his outer robe, but he didn't expect the edge of the bed to hit Ji Qingyu's butt.

"Ah!" He let out a cry of pain and his expression became painful.

"What's wrong? Yu'er!" Ji Yuan quickly let him go.

What's going on, he hasn't even touched his back yet!

"I...it's not my back, it's my butt..." Ji Qingyu said with a bitter face.

Seeing Ji Yuan’s worried look, it is impossible not to apply medicine to him today, but where did the bruises on his back come from!

"Ugh! Get down quickly, let me see!"

Ji Yuan paused, then quickly asked someone to lie down on the bed and took off his underwear.

When I saw the swollen butt with purple skin, I took a deep breath in shock.

He thought his wife just wanted to give him a small lesson, but he didn't expect her to beat him so hard.

"It's so serious! Why didn't you tell your brother earlier!" Ji Yuan was a little angry.

Ji Qingyu buried his head in the pillow and did not answer.

Ji Yuan was holding his breath, and seeing that he didn't answer, he didn't want to say anything more, so he just scooped a dot of ointment from the porcelain bottle and gently applied it on him.

"Hiss!" The flesh on Ji Qingyu's buttocks tightened.

"Does it hurt?"

When Ji Qingyu called out, Ji Yuan's anger suddenly disappeared. He asked nervously, and his hands moved more gently.

"Hmm!" Ji Qingyu replied sullenly.

"Now that you know it hurts, don't make your wife angry in the future. Otherwise, you will be beaten again. And then I won't stand by you!"

Ji Yuan applied medicine to him gently while educating him.

"Got it!" Ji Qingyu frowned and buried his brows in the pillow, agreeing very reluctantly.

……

The next day, Su Qinghe got up as usual and exercised in the yard. Then he went out to buy some ingredients for hot pot base.

How did she know this? She had the help of her friend who is also retired and loves to study food.

Her friend is a foodie and likes to tinker with new things when she has nothing to do. Whenever she comes up with something new, she will invite her to taste it and explain it to her every time, down to the details of the ingredients and cooking methods.

But she had already developed the ability to remember everything she saw, so she didn't need to try hard to remember everything, as it was firmly engraved in her mind.

Su Qinghe walked into the kitchen with a big bag of things, and saw three men busy there.

"My wife is back! Brother Yuan and I were discussing what to eat for lunch!" Lin Xi walked over with a smile and took the things in Su Qinghe's hand.

"My dear wife, is there anything you want to eat? It's still early, and the market is still open!"

Ji Yuan and Ji Qingyu were also waiting for Su Qinghe to speak.

"Let's have hot pot for lunch!"

"It just so happens that there are some left in the kitchen, not too much, not too little, so let's finish it all in this meal and buy some fresh ones tomorrow!"

Su Qinghe glanced at the stockpiled goods in the kitchen. There was only a little of everything left, not enough to stir-fry a dish. They were just right for hot pot.

She had just gone to the craftsman's shop and brought back a set of ready-made equipment in advance.

"Wife! What is hot pot?"

Several people cast doubtful looks at him.

"You will know soon!" Su Qinghe divided all the materials and packed them up.

"Just wash and prepare all the ingredients in the kitchen. Remember to cut the meat into thin slices and marinate it. I'll take care of the rest!"

"My dear wife! How can I let you cook when our lady is far away from the kitchen?" Lin Xi shook his head in disapproval when he heard that Su Qinghe wanted to cook it herself.

Ji Yuan also looked at Su Qinghe disapprovingly.

"Just tell Xiaoxi how to do it, and she'll do it!"

Su Qinghe did not agree, after all, it was a complicated job, but Lin Xi kept holding her hand to prevent her from moving.

He seems to be very stubborn about this matter.

Su Qinghe had no choice but to step aside and provide guidance.

The last scene in the kitchen is that Ji Yuan and Ji Qingyu are washing vegetables, while Lin Xi is cooking very well under the guidance of Su Qinghe.

"Wife! Is that so?"

Lin Xi poured the seasonings into the pot and stir-fried them in the order Su Qinghe said.

When the pungent yet tempting smell of hot pot wafted out, Su Qinghe couldn't help but take a deep breath, revealing a satisfied expression.

But it smelled so good! It was a familiar smell.

"Xiaoxi did a great job!" Su Qinghe praised sincerely.

Lin Xi is very talented in cooking and rarely makes mistakes. She can also master many recipes that do not exist in this world at once.

It was much easier for her than for someone who had the brain but not the hands.

It seems that some of the delicious foods in her mind can be made by Lin Xi in the future!

"It smells so good!" Lin Xi exclaimed.

"Okay! Now serve it out!"

Su Qinghe poured the fried hot pot base into one side of the shuangxiang pot.

Because Ji Yuan and Ji Qingyu couldn't eat anymore, Su Qinghe asked Lin Xi to boil water and make a tomato soup base.

After everything was ready, the four of them sat at the table neatly.
