Chapter Eighty – I’m so full!
Although digging for shells by the sea was very interesting, because Gu Mengyao was still a pregnant woman, Gu Yu did not let her squat for too long before taking her to dig up the jars they had buried earlier.
Afterward, looking at the shrunken octopuses in the jars, Gu Yu’s mouth immediately turned upwards.
He secretly thought, “Next, it’s time for a feast!”
He didn’t know if the people in Linfeng Kingdom didn’t know about jar fishing for octopus, so when Gu Yu dumped the octopuses out of the jars, there were actually three small octopuses hiding inside.
And in Gu Mengyao’s jar, a large octopus crawled in, and couldn’t be poured out no matter what. In the end, a servant directly reached in and dug the octopus out, placing it in the water bucket that had been prepared long ago.
The jars that the maids and servants had buried earlier also yielded a good harvest, with many octopuses dumped into the water bucket.
This made Gu Yu look at the number of octopuses and already plan how to deal with these guys later.
Of course, Gu Yu only needed to say a few words to the cook, and then he could wait for the ready-made delicacies.
There were also fish, shrimp, crabs, and other seafood caught by the fishermen, and some of the seafood also needed to be mentioned, to avoid any mistakes by the cook.
It wasn’t that Gu Yu was worrying too much, but because this place was not like modern times where cuisine had been researched for thousands of years.
For example, crabs.
For this kind of seafood with a hard shell, the cooking methods here were very simple, and the deliciousness could not be tasted at all… Of course, even steaming crabs directly was very delicious, but Gu Yu, who had brought his little wife this time, wanted Gu Mengyao to taste the most delicious food.
To make Gu Mengyao happy, Gu Yu was really exhausting himself!
However, Gu Yu did not feel tired at all about this.
Instead, he was a little excited, wanting to do more things with Gu Mengyao, so that their memories could be countless.
They would not be like his parents, who were outwardly harmonious but inwardly estranged, and their feelings were colder than strangers.
Such a result had a great impact on future generations… Gu Yu could be seen from this aspect.
However, since Gu Yu transmigrated and met Gu Mengyao, his refusal of feelings had turned into melting snow in early spring, slowly dissolving bit by bit.
One could not deny everything just because of past pain.
The future was beautiful and promising, and life was not just gloomy, but colorful.
To have such thoughts was something Gu Yu could never have imagined before.
Therefore, being able to move forward hand in hand with Gu Mengyao made Gu Yu couldn’t help but sigh… he was a very lucky person, which was why he had such a happy life.
“A’yu, why did you get distracted while grilling! The octopus tentacles are about to be burnt!”
While Gu Yu was happily thinking about these things, he suddenly heard Gu Mengyao’s voice next to him. Then, the skewer of octopus in his hand was snatched away by Gu Mengyao, who flipped it over and continued to grill it.
Because the spices Gu Yu mixed according to his memory were very delicious, Gu Mengyao liked them after just eating one skewer!
Before, Gu Mengyao was a big eater, but after becoming pregnant, her appetite became much smaller.
However, this time, she was once again showing her big-eating prowess.
The skewers Gu Yu grilled couldn’t keep up with her eating speed…
Gu Yu was very happy about this, thinking that Gu Mengyao had eaten very little during this time, and now that she could eat so much, he could also put his mind at ease.
Finally, he could continue to fatten up his little wife.
“A’yu, you eat too! Eat more grilled leeks~”
However, after hearing Gu Mengyao’s words, coupled with the cunning look in her eyes, it was clear that she had some ulterior motives.
He remembered that he had once said that eating more grilled leeks was very good for men, and had the effect of strengthening the kidneys and aphrodisiac…
Cough, cough, his little wife’s intention was too obvious!
Gu Yu chuckled awkwardly and opened his mouth, then Gu Mengyao mischievously handed him a grilled leek. When Gu Yu ate it, he was as happy as a cat that had stolen fish.
Even though she was about to become a mother, she was still so cute, it was simply a crime!
Thinking of this, Gu Yu also handed Gu Mengyao a skewer of grilled meat, and smiled as he watched his wife quickly devour the food, a look of pampering on his face.
Sometimes, it felt very good to watch other people eat!
However, the maids and servants waiting on the side were shocked. They never expected that the young lady, who usually ate very little, would have such a powerful appetite!
And her belly was still the same size, with no change at all!
This was too incredible!
It was no wonder these maids and servants were surprised. After Gu Mengyao became pregnant, Gu Yu immediately screened the servants serving her to prevent any danger from happening.
Therefore, among the servants serving her at this time, only a small portion knew that Gu Mengyao was a big eater.
The others were new people who only knew that Gu Mengyao ate very little after becoming pregnant.
“Phew, A’yu, I’m so full!”
And under Gu Yu’s constant feeding, Gu Mengyao ate her fill. When she happily reached out and touched her belly, Gu Yu couldn’t help but feel a desire to laugh.
It seemed she was really full!
Her lack of appetite during this period was due to the food problems. When they returned, he would definitely make a variety of dishes for her to eat.
“Are you full? When we go back, I’ll bring more!”
“Mm, let my father taste it too, it’s really delicious!”
Then, hearing Gu Yu’s words, Gu Mengyao immediately smiled and nodded.
Her little husband’s space was too convenient!
Not only could it store a large quantity of items, but it could also ensure that they would not spoil, which was simply a must-have for traveling!
Especially being able to eat such delicious food again next time made Gu Mengyao very happy.
Because the food was too delicious, Gu Mengyao even wanted to settle down here for a while.
Unfortunately, thinking of the many things that still needed to be done in the capital, she could not stay away for too long.
However, being able to travel out with Gu Yu like this was also very good!
As long as she could be with Gu Yu, Gu Mengyao felt that even traveling to a desert would be a happy journey, not because of the location or scenery, but because of who was accompanying her.
Thinking of this, Gu Mengyao reached out and held Gu Yu’s hand, her heart overflowing with happiness.
“In a little while, when it gets dark, we’ll take a stroll by the sea. The sea breeze at night is a bit strong, remember to wear an extra layer of clothes.”
As Gu Mengyao held Gu Yu’s hand flirtatiously, Gu Yu smiled and said something that made Gu Mengyao a little confused, wondering why Gu Yu would say that.
These days, Gu Yu had been treating her like a treasure, afraid of melting her in his mouth and afraid of dropping her in his hand. Now, he was talking about taking a stroll by the sea at night.
Was he not afraid of assassins and accidents suddenly appearing?
However, Gu Yu did not explain immediately. He just lowered his head and gently kissed Gu Mengyao’s forehead.
“You’ll know later.”
