CHAPTER 812: CHAPTER 789: JIANG XIAOXIAO BECOMES AN ANCIENT PERSON (PART 4)

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at everyone, each with a drooling expression.

"Freshly grilled lamb skewers, why don’t we all come in and have some?"

These teammates didn’t seem to have any bad intentions. Although they once looked down on Jiang Xiaoxiao, that was towards the old Jiang Xiaoxiao.

She could understand. If a person like that were in her own team, she might want to kick them out too.

When they heard this,

Six people immediately rushed into the house without any courtesy.

Gathered around the table, they didn’t even need chopsticks, grabbing pieces of meat straight from the grill to their mouths. Even if it burned, they couldn’t stop eating.

"Wow, Xiao Xiao, what is this flavor? It’s so delicious."

"Xiao Xiao, I was wrong. I always thought you were useless, but now I know. You’ve been hiding your talents so well, you can do everything."

Monkey lamented, in his mind, Jiang Xiaoxiao truly was useless before, incapable of anything.

Going out on missions with the team, not only was she unable to kill monsters, but even protecting herself was an issue, always needing others to watch over her. She barely spoke afterwards.

Never even saying thank you, it made her seem ungrateful, earning her the scorn of others who thought she was sick.

Once inside, she’d shut herself in her room.

If not for Youli, Jiang Xiaoxiao likely would have been kicked out long ago.

Aloof and delicate Jiang Xiaoxiao, how could people see the traits and strengths she possessed? Even Youli couldn’t understand this little sister-in-law of hers.

Of course, that’s her former sister-in-law.

This little sister-in-law was indeed a pampered young lady once.

She never imagined Xiao Xiao would be so skilled, knowing medicine, which was understandable since the Jiang family could afford good teachers. It’s not about just money making things happen.

Hiring an Ancient Medical Skill teacher to teach her medicine was no issue.

After all, the Jiang family had some heritage, hoping to match their family’s reputation with worthy traits.

Her fiancé’s traits,

With extraordinary combat skills, because a specialized teacher was hired. Otherwise, facing this world, her fiancé wouldn’t be such a famous Shura warrior, but the sister-in-law is different, who always seemed so frail.

Additionally, since her brother’s passing, their grandmother’s hospitalization, family either dead or scattered, following her, she barely spoke a word, always timidly hiding behind her.

Their day-to-day lives had no connection. Every time she entered her sister-in-law’s room,

Though it looked tidy, it was devoid of any atmosphere, unlike now, where it felt like there was a real person.

Full of life and vitality.

Able to blend in with comrades. Even though she wore a mask, the smile at her lips exuded kindness.

Youli laughed, pulling Jiang Xiaoxiao to sit down.

"You haven’t eaten either, sit down, let’s eat together! By the way, since your grilled lamb is so good, I’ll just bring my one-eyed sheep over. You have no idea how terrible boiled lamb was when I got back, it’s much better to enjoy it here."

Monkey wiped his mouth, "Xiao Xiao, had I known your cooking skills were this good, we’d have given you all the game we hunted. We’d have gladly even paid you. What we’ve been eating barely qualified as food, more like pig slop."

The others slapped Monkey.

"You were the one eating pig slop!"

Monkey awkwardly smiled, "Oops, that was a slip of the tongue. No way would I degrade myself to pig status."

"Hey, wait up, I’m taking the last piece."

The plate was swept clean.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the plate, and Youli chuckled.

"My dear sister, these five guys are all single, what they eat they never make themselves. It’s all market-bought, mostly bread or semi-cooked stuff. Flavor-wise, they can’t compare to yours. Forgive them for gobbling up your dinner."

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled, "Sister Youli, come with me to the kitchen, I’ll teach you how to grill lamb, so you can make more for everyone to eat. Since we’re here, and Sister Youli’s one-eyed sheep, everyone’s welcome to eat their fill."

Five men immediately jumped up.

"Jiang Xiaoxiao, you’re awesome!"

"Xiao Xiao, from now on you’re my little sister. Don’t worry, I know what to do outside. You may not excel in combat, but your skills are beyond most people.

You have a knack for everything. Thanks to you, my big brother is awake now. With your cooking skills, I bet you could set up a stall in the market, no need for missions, money would flow in continuously.

Your culinary skills might attract investors to take you to the 850th floor. Unlike us brutes who rely on our skills."

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Youli busied themselves in the kitchen.

Don’t be fooled by Youli’s explosive combat ability, her cooking skills? They’re laughable!

Youli fumbled around and complained, "Didn’t realize cooking was so difficult, easier to just fight monsters."

Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others grilled five more trays, barely enough to fill their bellies.

Really filling up these big eaters, both one-eyed sheep wouldn’t be enough, just enough for a taste.

Nobody would actually gorge themselves to depletion, no one would be so rude to eat everything up.

After seeing Youli and Monkey’s group off, Jiang Xiaoxiao finally had a moment to relax.

Brushing her teeth, Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled in the mirror, the first step seemed successful.

At the very least, she’s now part of the team, unlike the bleak past.

Monkey’s talk of setting up a stall, in her world for survival, she might do some easy, safe job. But now she must find that mischievous number ten.

She’s forced to brave the dangers.

Otherwise, how would she find number ten, it’s not like they’d jump onto her plate.

The only relief is finally understanding the powerful function of the equipment her father left her.

At least now she has defense and attack abilities.

This dagger is said to be the world’s most powerful, along with the impenetrable cloak, and her mask even has an x-ray function.

Just thinking about this equipment, it must have taken her late father a great effort.

He went to such lengths probably frightened by Song Moting’s situation, leaving her a set of tools for protection.

This is probably the only love her father ever left for her.
