Chapter 7: Late Breakfast

"A whole dead horse?" When Mrs. Dong heard Mama Zheng's words, her eyes lit up.

My own Dong Da's hunting skills are not very good, and he can hunt two rabbits and a litter of pheasants in the mountains on weekdays, if he can get a horse back, how much meat will he have! So much meat can not only be eaten at home, but also sold for some silver, thinking of this, Mrs. Dong's eyes are shining.

Dong Taoshu and Dong Taohua's eyes lit up when they heard the dead horse, the two of them were young, and they couldn't think of anything too long-term, they only felt that the ravioli in the morning was a delicacy in the world that they had eaten, and if there was more meat, there would definitely be more delicious.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go quickly!" Mrs. Dong felt that she couldn't sit still anymore, so she hurriedly said a word to Mama Zheng, and then went to the vegetable field in the backyard to greet her Dong Da. If the whole horse's flesh were thrown into the mountains, it would have been eaten by a wolf.

Because of the expectation of horse meat in his heart, the movements of the Dong family were surprisingly sharp, and after a while, Dong Da borrowed an ox cart from the people in the village, and left quickly with Mama Zheng, Dong Taoshu and Dong Taohua, two children who were making a fuss to follow.

Seeing Mama Zheng and them walking very quickly, Cui'er felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart, sitting in the clean but still very dilapidated house, Huiya recalled the situation in her previous life little by little.

What is happening to me now, except that my core has become an adult more than ten years later, nothing has changed. Mama Zheng took herself to this Dongjia Village and lived in the Dong family. The two children in the Dong family, Mrs. Dong, are also the same as in their previous lives, they are both strong and noisy.

Now Huiya lives in this West House, which was also lived here back then, this was the wedding room prepared by Dong Da and his wife for their eldest son Dong Taoshu, just waiting for the family to save some silver in two years, and then they will give Dong Taoshu a daughter-in-law.

Huiya's impression of Dong Taoshu is not very deep, but she hated Dong Taohua who made things difficult for her everywhere to the bone marrow, but she never understood why Dong Taohua, who was quite old, was so bad to herself.

Dong Taohua, the daughter of Dong Da and his wife, is the delicate girl in the family, and now the twelve-year-old Dong Taohua is looking forward to having a house of her own as a boudoir on weekdays, and has long regarded this West House as her own territory.

Dong Taohua finally asked her father and mother to agree that she could live in the Westinghouse before she got married, and before she could clean up the room and move in, she was given a head start by Huiya, a young lady from a big family, so she naturally had no good impression of Huiya.

In addition, although Huiya is in Hai'an's old house on weekdays, her food can't catch up with the big families in the capital, but she is a hundred times stronger than the local girls in this mountain village. And Hui Ya's clothes in her previous life were very beautiful, so that Dong Taohua, who was originally the first flower in the village, was instantly compared to the dirt, and she saw more and more that Hui Ya's nose was not a nose and her eyes were not eyes.

Thinking back on the past, Huiya couldn't help but smile slightly, the people and things she hated for many years in her previous life now seemed to be just a child's play, and she really couldn't resist any scrutiny. Not to mention that later they ...... Huiya shook her head, and decided to let go of the original prejudices in her heart and try to live in peace with the Dong family, at least until she and Mama Zheng left the Dong family safely.

Lady Dong outside was busy working by the pot, the pots and pans were tinkling, but she was using the few things left in the house to make some food for Huiya that could make her eat.

Huiya knew that Mrs. Dong would come in at any time, so she was not busy dealing with the gold and silver on her body, thinking that the place where the carriage had an accident seemed to be very far away from Dongjia Village, and this time and again it was possible to come back until the sun set, so she was ready to wait for Mrs. Dong to go out to work before making plans.

It's just that Huiya is a little worried about Mama Zheng's body, Mama's age is old, and her body is not very good. When the carriage was in distress, he desperately protected himself and suffered a lot of flesh wounds, and carried a big burden to pull himself to walk so far on the mountain road, even the iron people were a little unable to bear it, let alone just an old woman who had been pampered for decades.

Huiya was very worried about Mama's health, and in her memory, Mama Zheng fell ill within a few days after arriving at Dong's house, and it took less than a month to send the letter to the capital, and asked the Dong family to take care of herself, and she died. In this life, you won't repeat the tragedy of your previous life, right? Huiya's heart trembled.

"Miss Zhao, it's time to eat!" When Hui Ya was sitting in front of the window and was stunned, Mrs. Dong walked in from the outhouse, she was holding a bowl of millet porridge in her hand, and there was a white fat boiled egg in it, and a piece of pickle that was not cut very finely next to it, obviously this was breakfast for Hui Ya to compensate.

"This meal is not as delicate as Mama Zheng'......" Mrs. Dong put the porridge bowl on the edge of the kang and rubbed her hands a little crampedly, obviously a little embarrassed that this breakfast was far inferior to fresh meat wontons.

"Mrs. Dong is polite, now it's not as good as when she was at home, and it's already very good to be able to eat." Hui Ya smiled at Mrs. Dong, and her already beautiful little face looked better and better because of this bright smile.

Such a smile with the temperament accumulated by the rich and noble family made Mrs. Dong feel that her eyes were shining. And Hui Ya's gestures, although she doesn't look dignified because of her young age, her every move makes people look extremely elegant.

Mrs. Dong felt that Hui Ya really deserved to be a young lady from a big family, and she unconsciously carried some awe in her heart. Originally, he wanted to persuade Dong Da to get rid of Mama Zheng, and then embezzle the property of the Zhao family, but he lightened a little in his heart, after all, if he really provoked someone who couldn't be provoked, he didn't know how he died.

After Mrs. Dong finished delivering the porridge, she went out to do housework, and she needed a woman to take care of her inside and outside the house.

Huiya was also really hungry, holding the bowl of millet porridge and drinking the porridge with pickles and eggs one bite at a time, and then scraped the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, and there was nothing left. Only then did he pat his bulging little belly and sighed with satisfaction.

At this time, Mrs. Dong was not in the house, and Hui Ya looked left and right to see that there was no one, so she secretly took out the small piece of gold and silver that had just been placed in the brocade quilt. Seeing the bag of gold and silver jewelry in her hand, as well as the dilemma she might face in the future, Hui Ya carefully thought about how to put away the silver.

Huiya thought about it for a long time, but there were flaws in thinking about it, and before Huiya could figure out what to do, she heard a commotion outside, and Huiya hurriedly stuffed the small bag into the brocade quilt and walked outside the door.
