Yang Ruqing cut a piece of pig liver the size of her palm, and then a pair of pork kidneys, four ounces of tenderloin.

When pig liver is soaked in salt water to kill bacteria, first cut the kidneys in half and remove the fishy tendons inside. Cut them into pieces, and also cut the pork loin into pieces for later use.

Heat water in a pot, add aged Chen vinegar and ginger star anise cloves.

When the water boils, pour in the sliced pork liver, tripe, and tenderloin all at once.

This time, it's not about just a quick sear for that smooth texture. This time, Yang Ruoqing is going to thoroughly cook them through.

Chilies bought at a high price in the Washi market, sliced into chili threads.

It's two onions and chili threads made together as a side dish.

When you're ready to cook the pig liver, pork kidneys, and tenderloin, first put chili threads and onions in the hot oil pan, fry them until fragrant, then add the pig liver and stir-fry it.

This stir-fry method was figured out by Yang Ruoheng herself and it's not greasy.

If you follow the method of Mrs. Sun and Ms. Wang Cuilian, it is to directly put oil in the pot. When the oil is hot, add ginger, garlic, and dried chili peppers. Stir-fry until fragrant before adding raw pig liver and other ingredients.

This kind of eating, Yang Ruqing can't accept it very well. She feels that the blood in pig liver and kidney is locked inside and there is always a hint of fishy smell when eating it.

...However, her approach is different. Because chili and onions are used as accompaniments, the meaty and vegetarian flavors complement each other perfectly, making it a truly excellent appetizer.

In addition, Yang Ruqing made a baby bok choy vermicelli soup and fried white sugar peanuts.

Scalding hot sake is not suitable for Kawasawa. If he drinks it, he might suffer the same fate as Daan back then. A fragrant and low-alcohol fruit wine would be more suitable for them both.

>After doing all of this, it will be half an hour later.

"Mrs. Luo cooks so skillfully, the dishes are both visually appealing and fragrant." The maidservant praised sincerely.

Yang Ruqing smiled faintly and carried the tray to the west wing.

"Here are the appetizers, my esteemed guests. Please drink freely and enjoy yourselves!" Yang Ruqing placed the tray on the desk and smiled mischievously.

Zuo Junmo glanced at the wine and dishes before him, a look of intoxication on his face.

“Qing’er truly lives up to her reputation as the owner of a grand restaurant. The food and wine are just like those depicted in paintings! Before I even touch my chopsticks, I can sense this deliciousness!”

Yang Ruqing smiled and waved her hand, teasingly saying, "It's my honor to serve the two guests. Please take your time." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

Left Junmo smiled again, his eyes filled with warmth.

Mùzichuan couldn't smile, he just stared at the dishes on the table, then looked up at Yáng Ruòqíng.

“Qing’er, you have a kind heart, thank you!” he said.

Yang Ruqing smiled, "Zichuan, there are no insurmountable obstacles in life. No matter what, you have Zuo Gege, me, Tang Yazi, and all of us friends supporting you behind the scenes."

Here is the translation:

Mu Zi川's face was full of emotion, and he nodded vigorously: "I'm fine."

Left Junmo glanced at Mu Zichuan, then said to Yang Ruqing: "Ruqing, just rest assured. Zichuan isn't a child, nor is he a naive youth experiencing first love. He has weathered many storms in the officialdom over the years? This little romance is nothing to him."

Let's have a good drink later, get completely drunk, and sleep it off well. I guarantee that we'll wake up feeling refreshed and liberated like we just woke up from a dream tomorrow morning. What do you think, Kozue?

Mù Zǐchuān nodded: "Zuo Xi's words are very true."

Seeing that Mu Zichuan's expression seemed a little more cheerful than before, Yang Ruqing felt slightly relieved.

She knew it was all thanks to Zuo Junmo, so she silently gave him a thumbs-up.

“Alright then, you two enjoy your meal and drink. I have to go over to the stage.” she said.

"Tonight, I've delayed your enjoyment of the play," said Mu Ziquan.

Yang Ruoqing waved her hand indifferently: "I watch those plays every year, no matter which play it is, I can hum a few lines. It's okay if I don't watch for a while."

"So, " she turned her head to look at Zuo Junmo again, "where will you be staying tonight? Is there anything you want me to tell Granny?"

Zuo Junmo said, "I plan to stay here with you tonight, Zichuan. You wouldn't mind having this old man around, would you?"

Mu Zichuan laughed: "How is that possible? I'd be delighted!"

Zuo Junmo also smiled and said to Yang Ruqing, "Tell my mother to rest well. I'm drunk tonight, and I'll stay at your place for another day tomorrow. You can't dislike us!"

Yang Ruqing glared at Zuo Junmo: "Zuo Big Brother, you haven't even had a drink yet and you're already starting to talk nonsense. I won't delay you guys, I'll take my leave first!"

Mu Zi Chuan nodded.

Zuo Junmo reminded, "The moon is dark and the wind is high, you be careful as a woman alone."

Yang Ruqing didn't look back, walking while lifting her fist, "I also want to be a delicate flower, but my strength doesn't allow it!"

Zuo Junmo and Mu Zichuan both froze for a moment. When Yang Ruohong left the west room, the two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

“Qinger is truly a cheerful person. With her around, laughter abounds, and it seems like any worries simply disappear.” Zuo Junmo mused.

Muzi Chuan also agreed, "Therefore, Fengtang, you are enviable! You are so lucky!"

Left Junmo saw Mu Zichuan's expression and didn't want him to shift his attention from Liu Doukou to Qing'er again at that time, so as not to add more pain.

So, he patted Mu Zichuan's shoulder: "Come on, brother Zichuan, tonight we only drink and talk about the current affairs, no talk about women!"

Mu Zi Chuan nodded, lifted the wine jug in front of him, and personally filled Left Jun Mo's cup. Then he filled his own cup as well.

"Elder brother Left, first cup, your younger brother respectfully offers it to you! Many thanks to elder brother Left for his guidance and consolation, your younger brother shall drink this as a sign of respect!" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

After the play ended at night, Yang Ruqing helped Lao Fu Jin back to the Lao Luo family.

After attending to her wash and change, Old Madam Zou sat down in the bed, holding a bowl of red date soup in her hand.

"Oh, I didn't expect Xiaoyu and Miss Liu to create such a fuss. These young people are so impulsive and reckless! They do things without thinking of the consequences. For their own momentary pleasure, they have implicated so many people, especially Zichuan. He is the biggest victim."

Yang Ruqing sat beside the charcoal brazier, warming her hands and nodding in agreement: "Zichuan has always been a proud person since he was young. He excelled in his studies and had a smooth career path, helped by influential people."

"This... is arguably the most embarrassing thing he's ever done in his life. To get out of this shadow, he ultimately has to adjust his mindset himself."

Left Matriarch pondered for a moment, then said, “How did Jun Mo encounter Xiao Yu Xi and Liu Dou Kou today? What is the situation?”

“Before, everyone in the village said that Liu Douk was sent back to her family by Liu Dafu in the morning, right? Could it be that Xiao Yu knew this news and was waiting halfway to intercept the carriage?”

Yang Ruqing organized her thoughts and told Old Madam Zou the whole process of what she knew.
