Chapter 427 The Fragrance Fills the Heart (Happy Chinese New Year)
Returning to his home, which he hadn't been back to for several days, Li Qin did nothing but first cast a cleaning spell to clean the house.
The dust in Beijing was very heavy. Although he had only been away for a few days, Li Qin could clearly see that there was already a thin layer of dust on the furniture and the floor.
Although Li Qin wasn't a germaphobe, he didn't want to be in this kind of environment.
As a gentle breeze swept through the room, all the dust that Li Qin found annoying vanished instantly.
Looking at the room, now clean and tidy again, Li Qin nodded in satisfaction.
Li Qin first sat in the living room to rest for a while before taking the chicken and the vegetables into the kitchen.
With noon fast approaching, Li Qin, not wanting to go hungry, naturally began preparing to cook.
The rooster that Li Qin brought back to the yard this time was one that he had specially selected and had not been treated.
Add some very fresh-looking green vegetables.
That way, no one would suspect that he brought it back from the countryside using his work position.
The next step is to process the ingredients.
Others would definitely make a mess of things if they tried to handle this, but Li Qin wouldn't.
With a single spell, all the rooster's feathers fell off.
Li Qin didn't throw away these chicken feathers either, as they were quite useful during that period.
Although Li Qin didn't like it, he pretended to look at it and put it away.
Li Qin no longer needs to do the cooking himself; he only needs to use life magic to activate the kitchen tools.
Li Qin found a quiet spot in the kitchen to sit down and rest.
If someone were to pass by the kitchen at this moment, they would hear the sound of chopping meat and assume that Li Qin was processing a rooster inside.
No one would have guessed that everything was done in the kitchen, while Li Qin himself was sitting to the side reading a deluxe edition of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Li Qin discovered it by chance on the black market.
If this were placed in later generations, it would definitely be a collector's item, but for Li Qin, it was just a novel to pass the time.
Li Qin stayed in the kitchen until the chicken stew was started and the rice was steamed.
Whether you're stewing chicken or steaming rice, it takes time; all you have to do is wait.
The kitchen was too smoky and uncomfortable to stay in, so Li Qin naturally couldn't stay there indefinitely.
He chose to rest for a while, have some tea, and read a book before going to the kitchen to finish up when it was almost time.
As time passed, the aroma of Li Qin's stewed chicken gradually spread.
Although Li Qin did not use any magic spells to control the food this time, the aroma of the food itself was so strong that many residents could still smell it.
The residents of the courtyard house did not say anything about this.
When Li Qin returned earlier, they had already anticipated the current situation when they saw the chicken hanging on his bicycle.
None of the residents had any particular thoughts, but the deaf old woman living next door to Li Qin's suddenly became gloomy after smelling the aroma.
Even without going out to see the deaf old lady, she could guess that Li Qin was cooking again.
Only Li Qin's family could make such delicious food.
Unfortunately, the deaf old woman knew very well that no matter what she did, she could not gain any advantage over Li Qin.
So I can only try to suppress my thoughts.
Despite thinking this, the deaf old woman couldn't help but turn her head to look in the direction of Li Qin's kitchen.

Li Qin, who was drinking tea and reading at home, was not surprised at all by the notification sound that came to his ears.
This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this.
He used to secretly use spells to amplify the aroma of food, but he didn't do that this time.
However, precisely because Li Qin did not use any magic spells to seal the aroma of the food within the courtyard, people in several neighboring courtyards gradually began to smell the aroma of Li Qin's stewed chicken.
The aroma of the stewed chicken was so enticing; it was the first time they had ever smelled it.
Many people followed the scent and eventually located the courtyard at No. 95. After identifying the source of the scent, these people gradually dispersed.
However, some people had a strange look in their eyes as they left.
Because Li Qin blocked the notification of the small amount of emotional power he received, he was unaware of these things.
He was in the kitchen at that moment.
After simmering for more than ten minutes, the chicken is finally cooked. Now all that's needed is to finish it off before serving.
Li Qin didn't need to worry about cooking; all he had to do was bring a large bowl of steamed rice to the dining room.
Soon, Li Qin came out of the kitchen carrying a full pot of stewed chicken and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.
As he brought the food out of the kitchen, an even richer aroma began to spread around.
As a result, Li Qin once again reaped a wave of emotional power.
Unfortunately, Li Qin's attention was entirely focused on the food in his hands, and he paid no attention to the power of emotions.
Moreover, Li Qin, who was only thinking about eating rice, did not notice that there was a figure staring intently at him from behind the window of the deaf old lady next door.
Even if Li Qin found out, he probably wouldn't care.
Although eating alone lacked a bit of atmosphere, Li Qin still enjoyed his meal.
After finishing a full pot of stewed chicken, a plate of green vegetables, and a large bowl of rice, Li Qin was finally full.
He leaned back in his chair, quite satisfied.
At this moment, he didn't even want to move.
Since his body didn't want to move, Li Qin followed his instincts and sat in the chair for a while.
As for the remains on the dining table, Li Qin didn't bother to clean them up.
After all, for him, it was just a matter of waving goodbye; whether it was sooner or later made no difference.
After a while, Li Qin felt uncomfortable sitting in the chair, so he simply went back to his bedroom and lay down on the bed.
Whether it was because his blood sugar was high from eating that made him feel sleepy, or for some other reason, Li Qin fell asleep soon after lying down.
He didn't wake up again for several hours.
"Maybe I've been too tired lately, because I fell asleep right away."
When Li Qin woke up, he felt refreshed and invigorated.
Although he felt comfortable both physically and mentally, a look of doubt flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
Although he has a habit of taking a nap, he only falls asleep when he feels sleepy.
But this afternoon nap seemed a little different.
Li Qin didn't think much of it; as long as he didn't feel any discomfort, that was enough.
Upon waking up, Li Qin first cleared the dining table, then brewed himself a pot of water and began to think about some things.
"National Day is just around the corner. According to the plan, the three divine books will be delivered to whichever person during the National Day holiday. However, we still need to think carefully about the specifics of how to proceed."
Li Qin was well aware of the value of the three divine books, and he was somewhat uneasy about handing them over to just any random person.
Therefore, he planned to personally deliver it to Zhongnanhai.
Li Qin believed that those individuals, with their discerning eyes, would certainly be able to see the value in the books.
Therefore, there is no need to worry that these books will be overlooked.
