Chapter 65: The Quiet Suffering

"Secluded, huh? It's a cute name, and it's very nice. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Well, you think so too." Yuyu came out with a spoonful of curry juice from the pot, "Ahhh There's more cumin, there's less anise, and..."

Hearing Youyou say how much more or how little several spices were added or how much was missing, Zhao Jiangchen's eyes skipped a trace of surprise.

"How does you know what's more and what's less? And so precisely. ”

"Smell, can't my brother smell it?"

Looking at Youyou's big cute and bright eyes, Zhao Jiangchen scratched his face in embarrassment. "Haha, my brother is not as powerful as Youyou, by the way, Youyou, what spices do you put in here..."

"Fennel... Cumin... Turmeric... Star anise...", he said more than 20 kinds of spice names.

"Right? With so many spices added, it's no wonder the smell is so complicated... Why do you add so many spices to it? ”

"This is what my mom researched, a neutralizer that mixes multiple spices."

"Neutralizer? Is there really such a thing? ”

"That's right." As he spoke, Yu Yu took out a small basket from the side, and in it was a small grass, and the rhizome was covered with rows of leaves. "That's it, and my mom and I have found the perfect mix of spices."

"So you've been working on this thing all along?"

"Yes, because my mother is gone, I don't know what I can do in the future, so I can only study the problems left by my mother here until I can't study it anymore..."

Looking at Youyou's very serious appearance, Zhao Jiangchen himself had to marvel, the mother and daughter had simply devoted their lives to this kind of research that could change the history of spices. It's really admirable.

"Secluded... Can you show me your mom and your research? ”

"At the little table over there." Youyou told Zhao Jiangchen unsuspectingly.

"Youyou, why did you just tell me so directly? Aren't you afraid that I will rob you of the fruits of your labor? Zhao Jiangchen asked suspiciously.

"Don't be afraid, my brother's body is full of the taste of all kinds of cuisine, my brother should be a chef, my mother said that chefs will make delicious food for others to eat, so it shouldn't be a bad person, and also, my brother's eyes are very good-looking, and my brother with good-looking eyes will not be a bad person."

"You, don't you want to do this in the future, do you hear that? It's not that a chef is necessarily a good person, or that a person with good eyes is a good person, you know? ”

"No, my brother's eyes are like my mother's, and they are different from the bad uncles and bad brothers outside who always want to bully Youyou."

"Bullying you? Who wants to bully you? Why are you being bullied? How to bully you? Hearing Youyou's words, Zhao Jiangchen's heart held his breath and breathed a sigh of anger, such a young girl, those people would actually come to bully her? It's really unimaginable.

"Youyou is fine, and I know that the big brother cares about Youyou, and Youyou has always been able to protect himself well, and they can't bully Youyou. Ah~ It's done, my brother will come over and eat a little together. Youyou found a small plate that was fairly clean, filled it with a little curry, and handed it to Zhao Jiangchen. You don't have anything else to entertain your brother. ”

"It's okay, my brother still has a lot of ingredients here, starting tomorrow, my brother will cook for you well."

Yu Yu thought about it and swallowed a mouthful of saliva...

"It's okay, your research, my brother will accompany you to continue to do it, okay?"

"Well... Thank you brother. "Youyou're smiling very sweetly and cutely.

......

In this way, in the past few days, Zhao Jiangchen lived with Youyou, taking care of Youyou's life here every day, and Zhao Jiangchen bought a lot of food here, which was enough for the two of them to eat for a while, so they often nested in the house to study this magical neutralizer.

And there have been people who have been here a few times during this time, but they are all full of foul language, saying that Yu Yu and her mother are unknown people, studying ominous herbs, which will definitely bring ominous information to the village.

And Zhao Jiangchen's response was even more direct, if you don't get out of here, I'll let you taste what it feels like now.

Under Zhao Jiangchen's tough attitude, no one in the village dared to come here to make trouble.

"Brother, the moon grass is gone, I have to go out to pick a little tonight." Youyou said to Zhao Jiangchen with some hesitation.

After Zhao Jiangchen's careful care these days, the relationship between the two has improved a lot, and the two have nothing to say.

"What's wrong? Why go tonight? Let's go tomorrow morning. ”

"No..."

"What's wrong? Is there any reason why you can't say? ”

"No, because this grass can only be picked in the back mountains."

"Back Mountain? Isn't that what the old village chief said about a forbidden place? ”

"Well, yes, every time someone enters the back mountain without permission, they will be punished, I heard that there is going to be a board, so in order not to be discovered, you can only sneak in quietly at night."

"It's okay, I'll go with you tonight, you're too dangerous alone, and it's easy to get into trouble."

"No, brother, Youyou is very familiar with the back mountain, and as long as you go in a little bit, you will be able to come back soon." Looking at the serious expression on Youyou's face, Zhao Jiangchen nodded helplessly.

......

It's night, and Youyou has been out for a while, but he still has no intention of coming back, Zhao Jiangchen's heart is a little anxious, he put down the notebook in his hand and walks out of the house.

In the distance, there was a bright clearing, and a bunch of people sat there not knowing what they were doing, but they didn't look like they were doing something good.

When Zhao Jiangchen ran there, the scene in front of him made his heart break.

Yuyou was held in the hands of a very fierce woman, and her body was covered with wounds, some were beaten with sticks, some were cut, and her face seemed to have been fanned.

"Get out of here!" Zhao Jiangchen rushed through the crowd, kicked away the fierce woman, and hurriedly hugged Youyou, who had a somewhat weak breath, in his arms, fortunately, nothing serious.

“%!$!#^%!@$”

"Damn! Faint... You're fine, right? ”

"Brother... Faint... It hurts so much, bad aunt beats me... And the bad uncle..."Serious tears kept dripping, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Old village chief, what do you mean by that?" Zhao Jiangchen's fierce eyes stared straight at the old village chief standing on the side.

"I... Ah... I can't tell... You just leave it alone. The old village chief looked very helpless.

"Whatever? If I don't care, maybe Youyou will die at the hands of these people, you tell me to let me care, do you know, I can't kill these people now. ”

While Zhao Jiangchen was speaking, the fierce woman rushed over, and there were two young men beside her, the two of them were vain in their steps, they didn't have much strength, and they didn't look like good people at first glance. In order not to hurt Youyou, Zhao Jiangchen kicked the woman very decisively, and then kicked the two men almost crippled before he stopped moving.

"I'll take you to the hospital for treatment, you better pray that nothing happens to her, otherwise, I'll let you know what pain is." Zhao Jiangchen knows that if you beat people, you have to be ruthless, only if you are afraid of them, they will not dare to fight with you, besides, those people around you are just watching a lively scene, and it is impossible for them to come to help.

Everyone watched Zhao Jiangchen leave with Youyou in his arms, all of them looked angry, but they didn't dare to make a move.

The old village chief's eyes flashed with a gleam, and after saying something to the people next to him, he followed.

"Old village chief, can you tell me what the hell is going on?"

"Oh, that woman just now was her grandmother. More than 20 years ago, there was a Chinese woman in our village, she was just like you, she came to study spices, after living here for several years, she had a relationship with a young man here, and then they lived together, and after living together for a long time, they both died because of a food poisoning accident, and the man's mother thought that the woman killed her son, so she spread rumors in the village that the woman was a pest, which was ominous..."

"Hehe... It's ridiculous... So, leaving this poor ghost to live here alone? And then everyone in the village bullied her, and you pretended not to see it? Is this something that you cultural people have done? Poisoning a little girl? It's ridiculous. ”

"Oops... We can't do anything about public anger. ”

"Alright, I'm going to take Yuyou back to the house, please leave first." Zhao Jiangchen gave an eviction order, he didn't want others to know how good Youyou was.

"Well, what if... Yo, if something happens, you can flee to the back mountain, where there is a way out of the village, and that's all I can do. With that, the village chief left the place.

Back in the room, within a minute, there was a cacophony outside. Many people gathered outside. Zhao Jiangchen knew that now was not the time to treat Youyou, and he had to maintain his physical strength. After taking away all the useful things in the room, Zhao Jiangchen also found a relatively new notebook from a corner, and he also brought it with him.

"Youyou, hold on for a while, my brother will take you out of this place first, and then treat you later, okay?"

"Well... Quiet... It's quiet... Brother... Don't worry..."Youyou's voice was very weak, Zhao Jiangchen knew that Youyou's body was very weak, and now that he had been beaten again, his physical condition was very bad, it was estimated that it would be difficult to last too long, Zhao Jiangchen knew that he had to do something first.

"Youyou, my brother has some secrets, now, my brother will let you know, bring this ring."

"Yes. Brother... Bring me... Let's go. ”

After wearing this ring, a feeling rose from the hearts of the two...
