She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

Qi Younian approached Jinrong and Jiang Yifan to speak with them, first glancing at Ye Xinyan. Seeing her chatting and laughing with Zhou Biyao, without any apparent distress, he felt relieved.

Jinrong exchanged a few words with Qi Younian and then sat beside Guan He with a skewer of meat, imitating Guan He’s method of brushing on the seasonings.

Qi Sanshun shuffled around Guan He like an eager sycophant, ceaselessly handing her things.

Qi Jiaer came over and stood beside Qi Younian, looking a bit worried as he asked Jiang Yifan, "Lord Jiang, since your arm is injured, can you no longer grill meat? What would you like to eat? Shall I grill something for you?"

Jiang Yifan smiled at Qi Jiaer’s earnest face. He leaned forward slightly, touched Qi Jiaer’s hair bun, and chuckled, "Sixth Master Rong says the smoke from grilling meat is too potent for someone with injuries, so I won’t be eating grilled meat. Brother Jia, you go ahead and grill some for yourself."

"Oh," responded Qi Jiaer, his face showing disappointment, "The old woman servant in the kitchen cut up so many pieces of meat, and Lord Jiang can’t eat any of it? What a pity."

Jiang Yifan replied with a smile, "Indeed, it is a pity. How about this, when my injury heals, and we have a day off, we’ll go hunting wild rabbits. Or next year at this time, just like this year, I’ll go hunting with Sixth Master and Uncle Guan. There will be plenty of meat to grill and eat."

"Next year?" Qi Jiaer contemplated when next year would be, then said, "Let’s not worry about that. I’ll ask the old woman servant to pick out the best cuts of meat to freeze outside. Once you’re better, we can grill them then."
