Earn extra money
Chu Ying woke up hungry when it was almost noon, went to the kitchen to soak some chestnut powder, added some food to the hens, and looked at the eggs lying in the basket on the shelf, probably Brother Wang came to help clean up.
"Eat more, you can find you a wife and a good little couple to live, and it's good to have a son and a half daughter when the time comes?" Chu Yingthorn looked at the hen with a smile. The hen didn't lift her head and kept eating chestnut flour.
"Don't be shy, I'll find you a wife in the afternoon, you see, you can become a chick when you give birth, and the chick can grow up and give birth to chicks, you are the originator of the chicken farm." The hen disliked Chu Ying and always spat on herself, turned around and went to the other side to eat chestnut paste.
Chu Ying saw that there was nothing at home, and it was pitiful for the New Year, and when she went to the city, she could buy some pork and come back to pickle, it was suitable for making pickled products in winter, and the microorganisms were not so active.
"Chu Ying, are you at home?" Chu Ying put on her coat and brought her silver and was about to go to the city to buy some pork, when she heard Uncle Han shouting outside the door.
"Uncle Han, what's wrong?"
"Get in the car." In the car, Han Da and Chu Ying said that today's good errand, the Lu family in the city was going to have a banquet for guests today, and the number of slaughters was a bit too much, so they invited Han Da to go, and Han Da couldn't be busy alone, so he asked Chu Ying to go together.
When he arrived at the Lu family, Han Da told Chu Ying not to speak, just keep her head down and follow behind.
"Han Da, the animals are all encircled, first kill the pig and then the sheep, and finally kill the cow, you know, don't make a noise." Chu Ying was puzzled at first why they were so mysterious when they said that they were killing cattle, it turned out that cowboys were important laborers in ancient times, and it was clearly stipulated that they could not be killed and eaten, but some rich people privately bought cattle and hired people to kill and eat.
"Okay, steward." After the steward left, Han Da took out the tools and cooperated with Chu Ying to kill. Chu Ying is already familiar with these things, and her techniques are natural and smooth, with little skill and effort.
"I want to see the ox killer, don't stop me." Chu Ying raised his eyes and saw a boy about her age standing on the steps, watching Han Da kill the cattle and knock down all the servants who came to stop him.
"Little master, this is too bloody, you don't want to look at it, let's go back, you can eat it later."
"Go away, whoever touches me will sue my father." Everyone saw that Young Master Lu Ming insisted on doing this, so they could only let Han Da, who killed the cow, be faster.
Han Da gave half of the untied cow body to Chu Ying for operation, Chu Ying followed the texture structure of the cow's body, split the large gap between the muscles and bones, and made the knife along the space between the bone joints, the bone joints on the cow's body are gaps, but the blade is not thick, and it is easy to pierce the bone joints with gaps with such a thin blade.
Lu Ming saw that Chu Ying's embroidery of killing cows and mother-in-law was generally good-looking, not as rude as the big man next to him, and in some places where it was difficult to go under the knife, Chu Ying was also very cautious, his eyes were focused, and his movements slowed down.
Chu Ying's knives all followed the structure of the cow, and they did not touch the enemy connected by the meridians, and the muscles and muscles that were clinging to the bones were where they were agglomerating. This kid is not much different from himself, but he can use a knife like this, Lu Ming suddenly felt a lot more fun.
"Little master, go and prepare, you have to go early for the Yuwen family's banquet in the evening." Lu Ming glared at the maid next to him, got up and was about to go to the hall, but after taking a few steps, he turned around to look at Chu Ying, who was still busy.
"That kid is going with me, he doesn't go, I don't go." Chu Ying looked at the boy in fancy clothes who was standing with his hands crossed, and didn't know what these pampered young masters were going to do.
Because Chu Ying is not from the Lu Mansion, she has to discuss it with Han Da who brought her.
"No, we won't go to this Yuwen family, we'll leave if we do this job, no need to say more." The steward couldn't say anything when he saw that Han Da's attitude was so tough, after all, it was his own little master who was making trouble unreasonably.
"Is there not enough silver? Add 1 tael more. Let's go. Lu Ming looked at Chu Ying, who was obviously attracted by these 1 taels, it seems that money can make ghosts grind, it's not that they are unwilling, but that the money is not enough.
"I'll go." This is 1 tael of silver, and it only takes me half a tael to do it for a long time, and it is someone else's banquet, so there is no need to do anything, so there is no need to refuse such a beautiful thing.
"Chu Ying, this Yuwen family is your uncle's family, you have never dealt with each other, and he also drove your mother out, let's leave after we do this, it is Uncle Han who has caused you trouble." Han explained all kinds of benefits and disadvantages to Chu Ying in a loud voice.
This Yuwen family banquet must be very pompous, Chu Ying lived such a day and let her go to see her uncle and sister live such a glorious life, it was an invisible harm to Chu Ying.
"I really want to go, it's okay, I won't let them find me." Chu Ying washed her hands, bounced the clothes off her body, and walked to Lu Ming's side.
Lu Ming covered her nose, waved her hand, and asked her to take her down to change her clothes. He continued to watch Han Da kill pigs.
Chu Ying entered the bathroom, looked at the big wooden bathtub inside, and the bean-like things next to it, smelled it and then added water and rubbed it a little blister, after the servant closed the door, Chu Ying covered her mouth with both hands, these city people are really good at playing, Chu Ying washed herself and put on the new clothes that were placed there.
Chu Ying thought that she would wait for herself to have a lot of money to wear such good clothes, but she didn't expect to wear this cotton clothes in such a confused situation, it is indeed much warmer than cattail velvet.
Lu Ming looked at Chu Ying who was wearing his own clothes, and sure enough, he relied on his clothes, and suddenly changed from a beggar to a scholar. Lu Ming walked in front by himself, watching Chu Ying glare at Chu Ying who was stunned behind before he could catch up.
Chu Ying looked at the appearance of the child's nose growing to his eyes, so she wanted to take off her shoes and pull it in his face. But under the eaves, I can't help myself, I can only follow behind, after all, the one in front is not a person, it is a tael of silver.
got out of the carriage and entered the Yuwen Mansion, but because of this high-spirited kid, he went all the way, looking at the servants who asked for a salute along the way, he felt that the kid in front of him was also cute, after all, he seemed to be only an 8 or 9-year-old child, the most innocent and romantic age.
But when the women who were chatting in the courtyard looked at Lu Ming, they immediately made a scatter of birds and beasts, scaring Chu Ying who was following behind, Chu Ying looked around and confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, except that Lu Ming, who saw the girl and saw the same as a wolf seeing meat, rushed to the girls' pile.
Chu Ying suddenly had some suspicions that she had come to the wrong place, was she sure she was just here to have a meal, not to sleep? This child is so bold because he is young, and he must be a great scourge when he grows up.
Chu Ying covered her ears to avoid the screams that burst her eardrums, and for a while, some fell, some hid, some were caught, some were lifted skirts, and those who didn't know thought they had come to Chunlou. Chu Ying just wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it now, she didn't come in with this child just now, she really didn't know this child.
Chu Ying held her forehead with one hand, feeling deep pressure. "Lu Ming, if you are wild here, I will let your Lao Tzu give you a good look." Chu Ying looked at the woman in white who came out of the house, with a string of white jade jade Buddha beads in her hand, stepping on colorful lotus brocade shoes, her face was sharp but like a white lotus, as if this qiē had nothing to do with her.
"Hmph, stinking bitch. You ......" Lu Ming turned to look at Chu Ying, who was already wearing a mask on his face, "Who are you trying to scare?" Chu Ying bent down slightly, learning from the servants just now.
"Young master, you have to eat later, and the slave is afraid that when the time comes, the breath will pollute the food." Lu Ming looked at Chu Ying, who was still unaccustomed to him, suddenly became so well-behaved, and only felt a little unnatural.
