Chapter 1 Poverty

The misty drizzle was mixed with a little snowflakes, and the little starry white slowly stained the earth white, such a poetic and picturesque scene, happy Ruyi but completely uninterested in thinking.

"Eh......" Le Ruyi sighed, rubbed his little hands that were a little frozen red, and walked towards the main house with some frustration.

It's been half a month since I came here, and the wound on the second master's back is recovering, it's just ...... As soon as this half month passes, winter has come, and when winter comes, the silver of the white flowers will begin to be spent vigorously, stoves, charcoal fires, quilts, jackets, all of which need to be purchased with silver.

The things sent by the Jiang Mansion have been exposed to the inferior charcoal fire for the first time, and the whole room has been dusty, making people cough, and since then, all the things sent over there have been thrown into the firewood room by the second master.

But...... Le Ruyi stretched out his hand out of the corridor, watching the snowflakes slowly melting in his palms, it snowed, and the day began to get cold.

Pushing open the door, Le Ruyi saw Jiang Yichen, who had already woken up, frowned, and began to think in pieces, "Second master, your body is not well, why did you get up?" Why don't you lie back ...... yet?"

As he spoke, Le Ruyi reached out to help Jiang Yichen down, ready to help him to the bed to rest, but his hand was held by Jiang Yichen.

"Buns!" Jiang Yichen looked at Le Ruyi with burning eyes, and his voice deliberately became hoarse, "Do you think the second master is different today?" ”

Hearing this, Le Ruyi looked Jiang Yichen up and down carefully, and after half a ring, his face turned red all of a sudden, just when Jiang Yichen was happy to think that this bun would finally see him shy, Le Ruyi's voice was slightly raised, and even the slender willow eyebrows were raised, "Second master, the temperature is so low today, you are only wearing a shirt?" Do you want to get sick? ”

“……”

Jiang Yichen, whose face was full of black lines, looked down at his white shirt, the belt was not fully tied, and it fell loosely on his waist, making the neckline on the top of the inner village also slightly loose!!

"I ...... Ah sneeze ......" Before Jiang Yichen's words were finished, he immediately sneezed, which immediately attracted Le Ruyi's condemning eyes.

Touching his nose, Jiang Yichen felt that he still had to go obediently...... It's good to put on clothes, lest you really suffer from the cold, lie in bed in a daze to recuperate, and lose the opportunity to get along with buns, but it really outweighs the loss!

Under Le Ruyi's already more proficient methods, Jiang Yichen put on his coat, looked at Le Ruyi's little face, and couldn't help but start complaining in a low voice, "Baozi, since the second master helped you escape from the bad man's nest in Jiangfu and avoided the clutches of the uncle and the third master, you have become more and more ignorant of the second master, obviously crossing the river and demolishing the bridge!" ”

As soon as he turned around, Jiang Yichen pressed Le Ruyi's shoulders with both hands, allowing her to focus all her attention on herself, "Baozi, this is not right, the person who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge is immoral, let's know the kindness, do you know?" Clearing his throat, Jiang Yichen was just about to tell Le Ruyi in detail about his personal promise after he finished saying thank you, but Le Ruyi looked at Jiang Yichen a little blankly, and looked like what you were talking about, I didn't listen carefully just now.

Putting down his hand in frustration, Jiang Yichen took a deep breath, no, he can't be in a hurry, the current bun, her emotional world is blank, he has to take his time, he can't be in a hurry, he has to penetrate her emotional world little by little.

After such self-adjustment, Jiang Yichen's face regained a charming arc, and before he could open his mouth, Shi Shi had already walked in with a meal.

"Brother Shi, why are there two meat dishes and three vegetarian dishes?" Le Ruyi looked at the food and began to think again, "It's okay to combine three meat dishes together to make a very nutritious meal, two vegetarian dishes are enough, and I'm making a medicinal soup, wouldn't it be good?" What a waste! Don't you know we're running out of money? ”

Although Le Ruyi was chattering in his mouth, the movements in his hands did not stop, and he still served the food on the table and gave Jiang Yichen food.

It's just that...... The stones that were talked about turned from stunned at the beginning to dazed in the end, listening to the meaning of Le Ruyi's words, they are very poor? But...... Aren't they poor?

Looking at Jiang Yichen with blank eyes, Shi remembered that after coming to this house, the second master handed him a lot of silver, and those money, even if they didn't have income for a year or two, they could withstand it, but why did it come to the mouth of Ruyi, how did it become a kind of uncan't open the pot.

Eating with his head stuffy, the three people at the table were silent, since the fight came out, Jiang Yichen asked the two of them to eat with him, Le Ruyi's girl once protested, but it was invalid and rejected, and he also protested, but the second master looked at him coldly, and gave him a lukewarm sentence: Do you think I am willing? You're just in passing! He instantly understood that the main purpose of the second master was to let Ruyi accompany him to dinner! But why?

The puzzled eyes looked at Jiang Yichen, who was very happy to eat, but Jiang Yichen immediately gave a cold knife eye, he found that this stone is now having more and more problems, can't he just do it like before, don't ask anything, and silently bury his head in his head?

"Second master......" Le Ruyi was halfway through eating, and put down the dishes and chopsticks worriedly, "It's getting cold these days, are we going to add a quilt here?" ”

Jiang Yichen didn't put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, he still ate the meal naturally, and didn't forget to nod his head, and by the way, he also said, "Stone, I want to drink some black chicken, wolfberry and red date soup tomorrow!" ”

Shi nodded his head when he heard this, and wrote it down silently, but the doubt came again, isn't this black chicken wolfberry and red date soup a good drink for women? What does the second master want to make with this soup?

Le Ruyi on the side didn't expect to go in this regard, as soon as he heard the name of this dish, his heart was like dripping blood, this black chicken asked for money, wolfberry and red dates asked for money, this bowl of soup sat down, so it was repaid?

Holding the accelerated heartbeat, Le Ruyi wanted to open his mouth to let the second master drink other soups, but looking at the second master's happy appearance, the words came to his mouth, and he swallowed again, lowered his head and looked at his white palms sullenly, Le Ruyi felt that he was useless, and he didn't even have the ability to let the second master have a full meal, if he continued to spend money like this, it was estimated that in a few days, they would be hungry.

"Second master, Ming'er, I'll go find sandworms, let's make a sandworm feast, okay?" As if he suddenly thought of something, Le Ruyi suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his face was excited, making sandworms, you don't need to buy expensive ingredients, you can also make up for it, so you can save money and effort, how good!

"No way!"

Here, Jiang Yichen looked at Le Ruyi's bright eyes full of anticipation, and before he could think of what method to refuse her, the stone over there immediately jumped up excitedly.

Sandworm feast? Thinking about the worm he saw before, the wriggling appearance spread all over the table, and the stone felt goosebumps all over his body, let alone let him eat it in his mouth.

Head, shaking like a rattle, the stone shook his head vigorously, and expressed to Jiang Yichen very strongly that he was very unwilling, very unwilling!

Jiang Yichen looked at the stone so resistant, in fact, when he thought of the appearance of the insect, he also wanted to vomit a little in his heart, but ...... When he turned his eyes and looked at Le Ruyi's weeping little eyes, the soft-hearted one was like cotton, and he couldn't resist this girl.

"Second Master!" Shi Ben saw that Jiang Yichen's face also had some rejection, so he was a little relieved, and just as he sat down to eat, he saw that the corners of Jiang Yichen's mouth suddenly hooked up a shallow smile, and he immediately opened his vigilance, and jumped up again, "Second master, you must be firm in your position, you can't listen to everything......"

"The buns are also for our good, and the money in this house is really not enough, so we have to save some, right?"

Le Ruyi heard Jiang Yichen's words and knew that he understood his hard work, so he nodded again and again, in stark contrast to the stone's vigorous shaking of his head.

Jiang Yichen looked at the little light of worship that appeared in Le Ruyi's eyes again, and his mood also soared, but he saw the stone again: Second master, you let me eat the sandworm feast, it is better to kill me directly, light his throat, it is better to leave a foolproof strategy, in case he really sneaks out of this bun tomorrow, this sandworm feast will ......

"Since your brother Shi doesn't want to eat it, Ming'er will prepare a few more steamed buns or something, and it's not expensive, when the time comes, we will eat ours, and he will eat his, how about it?" Jiang Yichen put a piece of meat into Le Ruyi's bowl and said in a consultative tone.

Hearing this, Le Ruyi glanced at the stone that was really reluctant, pouted, and was unhappy because of the stone's ignorance and his penchant for spending money, but ...... Fortunately, the second master agreed to this, so that they could save the money to buy jackets and charcoal.

Shi silently glanced at the more and more cheerful Le Ruyi, and it was not until she took the initiative to clean up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen after she finished eating that Shi came to Jiang Yichen's side and looked at Jiang Yichen with an unbelievable look, "Second master, Ming'er, do you really want to eat fried insects?" Bug soup? Braised bugs? ”

Pi Xiaorou glanced at the stone without smiling, Jiang Yichen's tone was soft but dangerous, "Stone, do you want to spit out what you just ate?" ”

Even when he hadn't fully digested it, he muttered bug recipes in his ear, he had itchy skin!

When the stone heard this, he locked his neck in fear, but his heart was put down, and he knew what to do.
