When Ning Meng Yao returned and saw a large group of people, she blinked then turned to look at Qiao Tian Chang: “Who are they?” She was just away for a while and there were so many people in the house now.

Qiao Tian Chang rubbed his nose and explained: “These are my former subordinates.”

“Oh, alright. Let’s go to your place and talk.” A crew would begin working soon, it wouldn’t be pleasant for them to see this group of people here. Besides, it was a little noisy with so many people around.

Qiao Tian Chang thought about it, then he understood what Ning Meng Yao’s meant, so he replied: “Okay, let’s go.”

“Okay. How about you go to the mountains to see if there’s anything we can barbecue tonight?” It was troublesome to cook for so many people, so it was easier if they could just grill and roast.

“Sure, I’ll be back soon.” He agreed as he dragged the people away.

After Lei An and the rest left Ning Meng Yao’s courtyard, Lei An asked: “Boss, does Miss not like us?”

Qiao Tian Chang looked at him strangely: “Why would you say that?”

“It’s just a feeling.”

“There will be some work to be done at home later. It’ll look bad if there are so many people there, understand?” Qiao Tian Chang looked at Lei An with contempt, and said very vaguely.

Lei An patted his chest, he almost cried. Boss, can you not look at me like this? Your eyes are frightening me, don’t you know that?

Lei An and the rest were definitely skilled at hunting. In no time, they had hunted a lot of prey. They even caught two wild boars.

Venison was relatively tender and Ning Meng Yao liked it very much, so Qiao Tian Chang hunted two deer, rabbits, and other pheasants.

“Let’s go back.”

Looking at what the men bagged, Ning Meng Yao suddenly had a headache. How are we going to clean this up later?

“Qing Xuan and a few of you, help with the skinning. After that, come here and slice the meat.” In the end, Ning Meng Yao could only ask Qing Xuan and the rest to help Qiao Tian Chang and the men.

Fortunately, those men often had to hunt during the camp so they finished cleaning the prey quickly. After a while, almost everything was done.

Once they were done with the preparations, Qiao Tian Chang began to cut the meat. Soon enough, there was a large pot of completely sliced meat.

Seeing how skillful he was, Xiao Qi Tian and Lin Zi You both affirmed that maybe it was true that he could really cook.

They prepared the meat while Ning Meng Yao prepared the vegetables, such as lettuce, potatoes, corn, etc.

When everyone was done, the day was almost dark. There were several barbecue tables in the courtyard, and everyone surrounded the tables, thinking about what to eat first.

This was the first time they had a barbecue of such a scale, and the meat was quite fresh too.

“What do you want to eat? I’ll prepare it for you.” Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao and whispered.

“Anything is fine.” Ning Meng Yao believed in his skill of roasting meat.

Naturally, wine must be drunk together when consuming meat. Ning Meng Yao ordered Qing Xuan to bring out the wine.

Xiao Qi Tian saw Lei An and the rest taking big mouthfuls of wine. He felt somewhat pained.

These guys were simply spoiled children. Did they know how much these wines cost? Those were worth liangs, not stones.

“What’s with you?” Seeing Xiao Qi Tian looking at the men with grief and indifference, Lin Zi You asked carefully.

This guy was a little abnormal. What’s with him?

Xiao Qi Tian held his chest tightly and gave a painful look: “You guys are really a group of spoiled children, do you know how much liangs the wines you guys drank are worth?”

“Miss gave us the wine anyway.” Lin Zi You liked the wine very much. As he listened to Xiao Qi Tian, he took another mouthful from his big bowl of wine.

Xiao Qi Tian shivered and pointed at the men: “A jug of wine no more than 1 kilogram would cost one hundred liang, one hundred liang.” Xiao Qi Tian cried. Wine was a must, but why must she give such good wine?

The men who were drinking the wine, were stunned and they looked down at the wine in their bowl. Does this wine really cost one hundred liang? It can’t be, right? It’s that expensive? They had just drunk so much of it. How much of it had they drunk? It seemed that what Xiao Qi Tian said was true, they were really a bunch of spoiled children, but then again, Ning Meng Yao was the one who gave them the chance to have such wine.
