Chapter 270: Turmoil at the construction site
"Yes, when the slaves and maids just went to get food, they had already heard several slaves complaining, saying that the food was poor and the work was heavy, and they were all clamoring to do it. As a result, an official next to him heard it, picked up a wooden stick and beat them. I think that although those people dare not resist, they are not convinced. ”
"Whoever receives such treatment will not accept it!"
Feng Shanyue looked at the slaves working on the construction site, and suddenly had a feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings. It's not a quiet atmosphere!
"What then? Shall we do it again?"
"Naturally, you have to do it, these people are still hungry!" Feng Shanyue looked around, "You can help me wash the contents of this bag a few times first, at least there should be no mud and sand." Then you go and find some wild vegetables and come back, and I'll cut all the dried meat left in our baggage and put it down, some meat, some vegetables, and maybe this meal will be able to be swallowed!"
At the moment, she really has no better way, but Butterfly Dance thinks more, "We don't have many things to bring, even if we put them all down, we can only make this meal, what about the next meal?"
"No matter, let's make this meal first!"
When it was time for lunch, the slaves were so hungry that they went to their own stoves to get their food.
"It's these things again!"
"I don't even give me food to eat, how can I do this work?"
"It's not a human life!"
All the pots and stoves were full of complaints, but Feng Shanyue and their pots were silent, because the slaves found that the food in the pots was different from the previous days. Although it is still a clear soup made of wheat straw and bran flour, the green leaves floating on it make it look a little better, and the nose has a faint smell of meat.
When the paste was in the bowl, the slaves were smiling.
"I didn't expect these black-hearted officials to be gracious today, and they actually released meat to us!"
"That's it," he took a sip, and it was really better than usual, "although the meat is a little smaller, it's also meat!"
Butterfly Dance was busy serving paste, and Feng Shanyue smiled while handing her a bowl: "Everyone has been wronged, doing such heavy work, but they can only eat these things." Everyone will be on it, and it will improve soon. ”
"This little lady is very kind, and the food she cooks is delicious!"
The slaves were very satisfied with Feng Shanyue and Butterfly Dance, and at this time, a mellow voice came, "Have you added these things to the paste, with the consent of those officials?"
Feng Shanyue looked up when she heard the sound, it turned out to be him, the slave she met on the road. He also had a bowl of mush in his hand, and he hadn't drunk it yet.
"Uh......" Feng Shanyue smiled awkwardly, "Although we didn't have their consent, we prepared these meat and wild vegetables ourselves, and we didn't use the government's money." They shouldn't have an opinion. ”
The slave smiled, but his smile was hidden from his beard, and he only seemed to feel the beard on his face move.
He drank the paste in two sips, and then said to the other slaves: "If you don't want to cause trouble for these two little ladies, hurry up and drink all the things in the bowl, and don't have anything left!"
Unfortunately, he spoke too late, and some of the slaves were fellow villagers, and when they had received their meals, they went together to talk. After a while, everyone on the construction site knew that there was a pot in the paste with wild vegetables and meat. The slaves who had not eaten immediately began to make an uproar.
"It's not fair! Why can they eat meat and we can't?"
"Yes, it's not fair, we want to eat meat too!"
"Eat meat, eat meat, eat meat!"
Feng Shanyue was startled by the shouts on the construction site, and at this time, the tall slave stood in front of her and whispered, "Look, this is the result of your kindness! Hide behind me and don't move!"
Before Feng Shanyue could figure out why he wanted to let himself hide, the official in charge of managing the slaves had already come over angrily with a whip.
"Who is so bold to put vegetables and meat in their meals?"
He sniffed with his nose and smelled the different smell of Feng Shanyue's pot, so he walked over, scooped a spoonful with a spoon and put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then with a "snap", he threw the spoon into the pot, and the rest of the paste splashed everywhere.
"Who's in charge of this stove?"
Feng Shanyue was about to stand up, but the tall slave spoke first: "Master Guan, this is made by my two sisters, they are young and ignorant, thinking that my brother is tired of work, so he brought some meat and wild vegetables himself. They won't be next time, please let them go!"
Feng Shanyue looked at his generous back in surprise, this person was not as fierce as he looked, and he actually came up with this method to help him out of the siege.
"Who are you?"
"I don't have a surname, a single name is a Yue character, because I was a small leader of slaves in Fu Yan, so I named myself Fu Yue. ”
The official sneered, "It's great to be a small boss, isn't it?"
His face turned cold, and he turned around and kicked the stove. Where could the makeshift pot stove made of stones withstand such a kick, and with a "boom", the stove collapsed, and the pot also fell to the ground, and all the remaining paste in it flowed to the ground.
"Do you want to eat well?" the official pointed at the paste on the ground with his whip, "Come, give me food! If you don't eat cleanly, I will kill you today!"
Feng Shanyue stood behind Fu Yue, she could clearly feel his whole body tense, she hurriedly stood up from behind him, and said to the official: "Master official, it's none of my brother's business, it's all mine, please don't punish my brother!"
"Hmph!" the official glanced at her, a glint in his eyes. Even if Feng Shanyue and Diewu deliberately dressed up ugly, they were slim and young enough, and they were very eye-catching on this construction site.
If you don't want me to punish your brother, then come to my tent and bring tea and water!"
Everyone could see what the sparkle in his eyes meant, and the two little ladies were going to enter his tent, and they would only be ruined. The slaves slowly gathered around, their angry eyes all on the official.
Being glared at by so many slaves at the same time, the official was also a little weak-hearted, but he was still quite strong with the whip in his hand, "What? Do you want to rebel? Don't you forget, there is an army on this embankment, do you want to die here?"
Fu Yue smiled slightly, and suddenly strangled his neck, "It's enough for me to die alone, but before I die, you have to open my way to hell first!"
After speaking, his hands began to exert force, and the official was strangled to roll his eyes, and his hands fluttered.
"Stop! Fu Yue, is your life so cheap?"
