Chapter 41: Delicious
Xuanzhu looked at Xiaocao with a complicated face, wanting to stop it, but she didn't know how to speak, looking at her current appearance, she thought that she was very hungry, and she was already used to eating this kind of food.
Xiaocao looked at Xuanzhu's appearance and knew that Xuanzhu couldn't eat it, so she swallowed the last bite of rice and said a little shyly: "Sister, you eat quickly, otherwise there will be no such food." ”
"They even gave you such a meal?" Xuanzhu asked in disbelief, is there any reason for such a thin and weak little girl, who is chopping wood and carrying water, and still refuses to eat well?
"What's the solution? We are all subordinates of the subordinate, and we only deserve to eat such a meal. Xiaocao lowered her head and said with some resignation.
"What is the next of the people? Do you believe that? Xuanzhu sneered and said: "They say that we are subordinates, do we admit that we are subordinates?" I can't figure out how an obedient person like you can offend them? ”
"Me? They all say that I am a scourge, and it will be bad luck to be with me. Xiaocao's eyes flashed gloom as she spoke, and her voice lowered, she glanced at Xuanzhu cautiously and asked, "You, won't you dislike me too?" ”
"How so? Don't listen to their nonsense, there are people who believe in such things as 'bad luck'? Xuanzhu calmly pulled Xiaocao's hand.
"But, but they all said that I killed Sister Ayuan." Xiaocao said, tears gradually appeared in her eyes, and her mood seemed very low.
"Did you kill A-Yuan? If you didn't kill her, you should have a clear conscience, she has the real reason for her death. Xuanzhu patted Xiaocao's shoulder and comforted.
"But they looked down on me and avoided me." Xiaocao lowered her head, and a little loneliness flashed in her eyes.
"So what? What does it matter if others look down on it? As long as you can afford to look up to yourself! Besides, they all look down on you and avoid you, what do you care about what they do? Live yourself well. Xuanzhu said.
Xiaocao heard Xuanzhu's words, her eyes moistened, for so long, everyone called her "Disaster Star" and "Scourge", only the sister in front of her not only did not dislike her, but also enlightened her like this, saying that it was false to say that she was not moved, she leaned forward to Xuanzhu and said sincerely: "Sister, it's good to know you!" ”
"Me too, thank you for helping me hide it in front of Old Yu Po before." Xuanzhu also said sincerely.
"What old lady Yu? She's a big kitchen house, and if you offend her this time, I don't know how she's going to clean you up. Xiaocao mentioned Mama Fang and couldn't help but worry about Xuanzhu.
"Afraid of what? The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and then we will talk about it. Xuanzhu pulled Xiaocao and stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go back and rest first." ”
"Hmm." Xiaocao responded, and then asked, "By the way, sister, I don't know your name yet." ”
"My name is Zi Xuanzhu, what about you?" After Xuanzhu finished asking, he realized that he had asked smoothly, and quickly added, "I mean, where do you live?" ”
"There." Xiaocao pointed to a dilapidated house behind the large kitchen.
"Really? Let's drop by. When Xuanzhu heard this, she immediately became happy, the old house happened to be where she lived, the two were of the same age, and they had a good impression of each other, and they could take care of each other when they lived closer.
The two chatted as they walked, and when they reached the room, they were surprised to find that they lived in the same room, and the two were happy for a while before they went to sleep.
The next day, when the sky was hazy, Xiaocao got up and prepared to work, Xuanzhu didn't want to go, but under Xiaocao's repeated persuasion, he still went.
Xu is Mama Fang has other jobs, today did not appear, Xuanzhu is also happy, the new steward assigned a hundred bundles of firewood and pear wood to the two of them, and left in a hurry, Xuanzhu saw that the grass was struggling, took the axe in her hand, and as soon as the courage was running, it was easy to split a section of firewood and pear wood.
Seeing this scene in Xiaocao's eyes, she was extremely envious, she looked at Xuanzhu and said with surprise: "Sister Xuanzhu, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, I took a lot of effort to split a small piece of this firewood pear wood." ”
Xuanzhu smiled and didn't answer, because of Zizhu, in the eyes of others, she was an ordinary person without courage, but no one knew that just last night, her courage had completely recovered to the strength of a junior cultivator.
After a while, Xuanzhu cut down all the hundred bundles of firewood and pear wood, Xiaocao was very happy, and went to get food after finishing work early, and today she finished it earlier than usual, and the thickness and length of this firewood and pear wood are very even, maybe the steward will give her some better food as soon as she is happy.
It's a pity that after Xiaocao came back, she still had the same meal in her hand as yesterday, and the most important thing was that their work was changed from one hundred bundles in the morning to two hundred bundles in the afternoon, which was simply deliberately oppressing them.
Xiaocao was still a little scared at first, entangled and didn't dare to go out, but when she really went out, she was faintly excited, she had grown so big, and she had never done such a bold thing.
The two slipped out of the backyard and found a small hill outside, and they slipped down the hillside, trying to find something to eat.
"Sister Xuanzhu, let's go back!" Xiaocao saw that the two of them had been out for a long time, and was afraid that the steward would blame her, so she pulled the corner of Xuanzhu's clothes.
Xuanzhu is so hungry that her eyes are almost green now, and seeing that there is a forest in front of her, how can she stop there? Anyway, she is also a person who has worked in the mountains and forests, and knows that there will be no "hard vegetables" on this kind of small slope, but there will definitely be a few small animals in the woods in front of her.
"Don't worry, there's definitely something to eat ahead!" Xuanzhu took Xiaocao's hand and walked towards the front.
Sure enough, after entering the woods, there were a few birds "chirping" in the branches, and she had no ability to catch birds, but it was no problem to set up a trap to catch a few pheasants and hares. Xuanzhu chose the terrain and dug the pit, and the two of them walked around again, preparing to find some grass or something to disguise on the pit.
"Sister Xuanzhu, look! There's a rabbit here! Xuanzhu was pulling a vine, and when he heard Xiaocao shouting, he immediately ran over.
Good boy! Sure enough, it's a rabbit! Not only a rabbit, but also a third-order rabbit, Xuanzhu was pleasantly surprised! Waiting for the rabbit can be touched by her, it's too bloody!
Look at the rabbit's "whirring" sleeping fragrance, Xuanzhu picked it up and began to clean it up, tsk, this meat is delicate, Xuanzhu thought of it and moved her index finger, if she didn't hear this "whirring" sound, she thought it was a dead rabbit.
I can really sleep, I don't even know that it's going to be someone else's belly, so I stew some wild vegetables into it, and Xuanzhu eats it is called a refreshing. Not to mention Xiaocao, since she arrived in the Divine Medicine Valley, she has never eaten a meal properly, this time, looking at her satisfied appearance, Xuanzhu knows that she has also eaten beautifully.
