The main course for lunch included white bread the size of a palm, corn kernels roasted crisp and charred, as well as wolf meat stewed soft with soybeans.
Not only Liu Jiuyue, who acted as the messenger, received the hospitality, but also the eight serfs and two guards who accompanied him enjoyed the meal with him.
The guards were not accountable, being servants of equal status to him, but having the serfs dine at the table was unexpected for Liu Jiuyue.
However, since they were not dining in the same place, Liu Jiuyue did not comment further.
With palms pressed together, he thanked the host who provided them with food and eagerly reached out to grab the white bread on the plate.
Different from the cold and hard green barley cakes, this bread was incredibly soft and spongy, made from unknown ingredients and by unknown methods. Merely holding it caused Liu Jiuyue's concentration to waver, and he hurriedly took a bite.
Delicious!!!
