Meanwhile, Sanfu was standing beside the pot. He was holding the two sides of the steamer. He moved the first steamer from the pot and placed it aside. The second steamer was still steaming bread.

The freshly steamed garlic bread was still too hot and there was steam coming out from it. It was best to wait until the bread cooled down and to see the moisture on the surface dries up. At that time, it would taste the best. However, Wufu could not wait any longer. He already held chopsticks and an empty bowl in his hand. When he saw Sanfu put the steamer on the table at the side, he immediately used his chopsticks to pick one up and put it in the bowl. He took a big bite of the garlic bread in the bowl and was scalded. Sanfu, who had seldom laughed before, smiled.

Although the garlic breads were specially made by Jiang Yue and Xue Yan for

Xue Sanfu and Xue Wufu, and the portions were not particularly large, Duke Shao and Shao Shuting were offered some too. Moreover, Xue Sanfu had always felt that he was greatly indebted to Duke Shao. Sanfu had been personally taught by Duke Shao in the military camp. Therefore, before Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could speak, Xue Sanfu had already taken two clean small baskets from the side and filled them with ten garlic breads each. He asked Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to send them to the other two.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan each carried a small basket and went.

Xue Yan had many things to discuss with Duke Shao and Shao Shuting, whether it was about state affairs, family affairs, or military affairs. Xue Yan and Jiang Yue agreed that Jiang Yue would return first, in case Wufu saw that they had not returned for a long time and came to look for them.

In the kitchen, Xue Wufu didn’t care if it was hot or not. He had already eaten three small garlic breads. When he saw that Jiang Yue came back alone, he immediately became anxious. He didn’t even want to eat the bread anymore. He hurriedly freed one hand and came over to hold Jiang Yue, who had just walked in. “Jiang Yue, why did you come back alone? Where’s Xue Yan? He’s too outrageous. He let you come back alone?! You’re just a child! How could he let you come back alone?”

Xue Sanfu also began to eat.

“Wufu, Shiye sent me back. You don’t have to worry.” Jiang Yue raised her head and said to the worried Wufu. “Xue Yan is still at Duke Shao’s place. Duke Shao read a book today and didn’t quite understand it, so he asked for Xue Yan’s help. Xue Yan was able to answer it, so Duke Shao began to ask Xue Yan more questions that he didn’t understand. Xue Yan was stuck there, so he asked Shiye to send me back”

“l see. Then I won’t blame him.” Xue Wufu immediately laughed again. “Come, come, come. You should eat the bread too. The bread isn’t that hot anymore. You can eat it.”

“Thank you.”

When the first basket of bread was finished, the second basket of bread was being steamed.

It was very delicious. Xue Wufu ate eight small garlic breads in a row. He was so bloated that he stopped eating. Fortunately, there was still a long time before the compet.i.tion. Otherwise, it would affect his performance.

Apart from giving the first basket of bread to Duke Shao and Shao Shuting, Jiang Yue and Xue Sanfu tried their best to let Xue Wufu eat first because he had a compet.i.tion at night.

Xue Sanfu had only eaten two breads, and he had a big appet.i.te, so he was not full yet.

Jiang Yue only ate one. However, Jiang Yue was small and had a small appet.i.te. She was already full of just one small garlic bread.

Xue Wufu burped again.” Sanfu, I really can’t eat anymore. You can eat.”

“Yes.” Xue Sanfu responded and continued eating his bread expressionlessly.

In the end, Xue Sanfu ate a total of sixteen pieces of bread before he was full..
