Chapter 80: Dongpo Meat

“What do you want?”

He retreated and stared at Lu Sheng fearfully.

“Remember, you can seek gratuitous financial help from anyone but me.”

She stood there and looked down at him as she spoke.

Lu Chuan’s face was pale. The stinging pain on his back reminded him that his seemingly weak and easy-to-bully cousin was not someone to be trifled with.

“Scram!”

Lu Sheng raised her voice and Lu Chuan immediately scrambled out the door in shock.

He was a muscular man who weighed more than 150 kilograms. Yet, he was sent flying with a single kick. Did this strength belong to an ordinary woman?

Why did he not realize in the past that Lu Sheng was not someone to be trifled with?

“Lu Sheng, just you wait!”

He stared at the Lu family’s door and snorted coldly.

He could not defeat Lu Sheng alone, but he did not believe that a group of people could not defeat her.

Given her beauty, she would definitely be worth a hundred taels if she was sent to a brothel.

Lu Sheng did not know what Lu Chuan was thinking. Of course, even if she knew, she would not care.

Those who were close to her in her previous life knew that although she seemed to have a good temper, even her master could not suppress her fury if she was angry.

To her, Lu Chuan’s actions today were considered a “petty squabble”. His crime was not worthy of death, so she could not be bothered with him.

However, if he really angered her, she did not mind letting him taste a fate worse than death.

Her master once said that committing murder and arson would decrease one’s life expectancy. However, it would be a different story if the victim was a villain.

After all, punishing evil is a righteous deed. Even the King of Hades would only praise her if he knew about it.

“Ah Jiang, bring these items back to the room.”

Lu Sheng shouted into the room and Lu Jiang opened the door. He complimented her with an admiring expression before carrying the items back into the room.

Lu Sheng made Dongpo meat, stewed lotus root pork ribs soup, boiled steamed chicken, stir-fried shredded eggplant, stir-fried vegetables, and prepared the seasoning for the chicken.

When she was done, the sun was setting.

She gave Lu Jiang some copper coins and told him to buy some wine from a nearby family.

She went next door and called the Liang family over for dinner. She also brought Lu Xin home.

Aunt Yu brought Liang Yuan and Lu Xin to the foot of the mountain to harvest some vegetables today. They only came back now, so they did not know that Lu Sheng had returned.

She only knew that she was back when she saw her calling for them.

“You’re so busy right after coming back. Don’t you know how tired you are?”

Seeing the faint green circles under her eyes, Aunt Yu’s heart ached.

Lu Sheng smiled and shook her head. “I’m not tired. It’s just that it’s been hard on you. Not only did you have to help take care of Ah Jiang and Ah Xin, but you also have to take care of the garden for me.”

Mdm Chen replied gently, “How heavy can this task be? Your Brother Liang can do it himself.”

Liang Ping nodded. “Your sister-in-law is right. The water is right there. I don’t have to carry it myself. How tired can I be?”

The grains were harvested today and put into the granary. As the courtyard of the Liang family was not big enough, they had to send the grains to the grain-sunning ground. Hence, Liang Ping and Mdm Chen had just returned.

The couple was preparing to start a fire and cook when Lu Sheng called for them.

“How did you make the meat? It looks quite delicious,” Aunt Yu asked as she looked at the Dongpo meat in the pot.

The meat was cut into a square shape with a bright color. Every part of it was bright red, and one would have a strong appetite just by looking at it.

“This is called Dongpo meat. If Aunt wants to learn, I can teach you how to cook it another day.”

Lu Sheng gave her a piece and another to the two children and Liang Yuan.

“Brother Liang and sister-in-law, try some too.”

When Liang Ping and Mdm Chen heard that, they each took a piece.

After tasting it, the few of them immediately thought it was delicious. Even the three children who didn’t like fatty meat ate a few pieces.
