The Marshal's Wife is Wild-Chapter 59 - 58 Another Day Missing You

[Is there a giveaway today, host?]

[Will the ingredients be sold in the host’s shop? I want to buy them.]

[I’ve eaten mushrooms before, but how could this be the same food?]

[What conditions are these? The vegetables are Energy Plants and the meat is Purified Meat, I’m genuinely envious.]

…

The ribs and yellow-braised chicken required a longer time to stew, so he took the opportunity to reply for a bit:

“Today’s food won’t be part of a giveaway, just sharing.”

“The host’s shop only sells Energy Fruits and Vegetables; for other ingredients, everyone needs to find them themselves. Mushrooms mainly grow in warm and humid forests.”

“Here’s a friendly reminder, when stir-frying mushrooms, fry them a bit longer to make sure they are well cooked. The same goes for stewing; otherwise, it’s easy to get poisoned.”

Qu Tong also did not forget to carefully make these everyday knowledge tips because he didn’t want to cause any trouble to his viewers.

Once all the dishes were ready, Qu Tong said goodbye to the fans in the live stream room.

As soon as the broadcast ended, he received a video call from Wen You.

“Tongtong, it’s another day of missing you, it’s been so long since I’ve had your cooking,” Wen You’s melodramatic words came through the Light Brain.

Qu Tong: “…”

She knew it, no one visits without a reason.

“Ding~” A notification sounded: [Wen You has transferred 200,000 Star Coins to your account!]

She liked this way of greeting.

“I miss you too.”

Qu Tong divided the food into three portions, with the largest portion packed into two thermal boxes and stored first in the Space Button.

Wen You’s portion, besides the food, also contained some strawberries and cherry tomatoes. She accidentally noticed some vibrant oranges in the corner and, with a slight smile, also stuffed three into the bag.

The remaining portion was for Housekeeper Chi, and it also included a small plate of strawberries.

As for Qianqian and the other male servants, Qu Tong didn’t bother much and just brought a basket of strawberries for them to share.

Qianqian joyfully accepted the strawberries and sincerely thanked her.

However, the butler seemed unworthy of such a favor and dared not accept the food box Qu Tong handed him.

“This! This is made by the lady, I shouldn’t eat it.”

Qu Tong put the food box on the table and reassured the butler with a smile, “There’s no need to be so formal, Butler. I will often cook some food in the future and will need Uncle Chi’s help to taste it.”

Then, without waiting for the butler’s reaction, Qu Tong looked at the time and walked out: “Uncle Chi, take your time eating. I need to visit the Empress at the Imperial Palace, and if it gets too late, I might not come back.”

“I’ll have Xiaowu send you in the flyer,” the butler followed Qu Tong out and immediately contacted one of the male servants.

With a free flyer ride, Qu Tong certainly wouldn’t reject it.

Before cooking, Qu Tong had already contacted the Empress, so she wasn’t worried about making a wasted trip.

His Majesty had just met with people from the research institute and the Military Science Academy and was about to go deal with the remaining official duties when he saw the Empress sitting alone in the pavilion.

Si Chen called over a maid who was waiting outside to inquire.

Learning that Qu Tong had an appointment with the Empress, he was no longer in a hurry to go to the study and headed to the pavilion.

After all, there was no rush; handling matters tomorrow would be fine.

“Have you finished your tasks?” the Empress looked up lightly from her Light Brain.

“No, I came over to accompany you.”

Si Chen sat down opposite the Empress, his expression becoming gentler.

“Thank you,” said the Empress, her attractive fox-like eyes slightly lifting, her tone gentle.

Si Chen’s expression did not change, and he smiled at the Empress.

The Empress didn’t continue to tease him, as she was going to call him anyway.

It wasn’t much later when Qu Tong was led in by a guard.

An instant smile bloomed on the Empress’s face as she stood up and waved to Qu Tong from the courtyard.

“Father, Mother, good morning.”

Qu Tong now called them father and mother without feeling as unaccustomed as she had before.

“Come, Tongtong, we’re family, no need for formalities.”

The Empress pulled out a chair very kindly for Qu Tong to sit down.

Qu Tong sat down.

The Empress finally got to taste the delicacies made by Qu Tong, and even the Emperor, who was usually accustomed to drinking nutrient solution, ate quite a lot.

Qu Tong had drunk an advanced nutrient solution in the morning and didn’t feel hungry, only eating some sweets from the Imperial Palace.

“If Tongtong likes it, I’ll have someone send some to Yuelan Bay later.”

“Thank you very much, Mother,” Qu Tong didn’t hide her fondness and didn’t refuse further.

After the meal, the Emperor sat with them for a while before returning to his study, leaving Qu Tong to catch up with the Empress.

The Empress was gentle and amiable, and Qu Tong was calm and steady; they had a good chat.

They talked about the management of the planet, Si Yuting’s past, and the affairs between the noble families’ young masters and misses, with the Empress mostly speaking and Qu Tong listening.

Later, seeing that Qu Tong was dressed simply, the Empress had someone take her measurements to have some clothes tailored for her.

Qu Tong couldn’t refuse and had to accept.

It wasn’t that the Empress thought Qu Tong’s clothes looked bad; on the contrary, Qu Tong’s taste was quite on point, sporting a pure and intellectual style, which matched her current temperament and felt refreshingly pleasant to look at.

But the Empress just wanted to gift clothes, incorporating different styles, and as a Prince Consort, why not dress more splendidly and expensively?

She really couldn’t rely on that rebellious son of hers.

Qu Tong was somewhat moved.

In her past life, she had no memory of her parents from childhood, and over twenty years had passed with no other relatives or friends beside Shengsheng.

Tasked with dying and coming here, although still without parents, she had met these warm people.

Xu An trusted her unconditionally, and although his kindness targeted the original body’s owner, she genuinely enjoyed the care and help.

The gentle and dignified Empress, the serious and dignified Emperor, the attentive and thoughtful butler—she could feel their benevolent intentions.

Even her aloof and straightforwardly blunt, cheap husband was also not too bad.

Truly a family with excellent upbringing and character.

Far away on Abel Star, Wen You had long been waiting in front of the transport portal and took the food box back to the rest area as soon as it arrived.

Lifting the lid, the aroma of food instantly filled the entire room.

Wen You eagerly took out the utensils and started to eat.

She devoured the two servings of white rice prepared by Qu Tong and still felt unsatisfied.

Tongtong’s cooking skills were as good as ever; if only she could persuade Tongtong to come to Abel Star.

But that was just wishful thinking.

Wen You took the food box to the back hall for the robots to wash and brought out strawberries kept on the bottom layer of the space.

There were also three oranges.

Were the oranges in the garden ripe?

Adding a bit of growth liquid should do the trick.

Wen You went outside the base, took out a small table and stools from the space, and started eating while watching the others train.

This mission had been completed and, as a reward, she was granted three days off.

Wen You peeled the “orange” and found it hard to break apart, so she cut it into six segments with a small knife.

Sniffling, Wen You wondered why it smelled so tangy?

Curiously, she took a segment and tentatively licked it.

Yikes~~~~

The sourness made her shiver entirely, immediately dispelling the thought of putting it in her mouth, and she directly threw the segment into the garbage bin.

She immediately brought up the light brain keyboard and typed quickly: [Sister Tongtong, you’re secretly smuggling stuff, you’re going to lose me like this.]

Just after sending it, a voice that sounded like it needed a beating came from behind, “Wen Dazhuang, what delicious thing are you eating?”

Wen You hastily stuffed the last strawberry into her mouth.

Cheng Feng: “Do you have to be so stingy? After all these years…”

“Shut up!” Wen You raised her hand to stop him, rolling her eyes in disgust.

She carefully brought over the plate of lemon segments, picked one up, and handed it to Cheng Feng, “Take it or leave it.”

Cheng Feng gave her a look that said, “you know better,” took it, and popped it into his mouth.

Cheng Feng chewed for a moment, seemingly puzzled, before chewing a second time.

“Is it sour?” Wen You asked with hopeful expectancy.

“Not sour,” Cheng Feng replied, his eyes smiling.

“Huh?” Wen You’s expression shifted from hope to self-doubt.
