Chapter 256 Sashimi

"Why do you have to do this, it's always sticking to me, and it's uncomfortable for people to see. Those who know think you're protecting me, and those who don't think you're going to have some bad habits. Valing smiled and teased Sha Yi. In fact, with Sha Yi by her side, she felt much happier, completely forgetting the haze of being driven out of Su Mansion.

Regardless of whether he can catch up with Valing or not, but in order to catch a glimpse of his face, Sha Yi said diligently: "Ling'er, I don't care what others say, as long as I am willing." By the way, didn't you say you wanted to show off with women's clothes? When are you going to wear it? ”

"Oh my God, you see that we are penniless now, do you want me to show people in women's clothes, do you want to tell everyone in the world that He Xiangu is pretending to be me. If this secret is known, will anyone still believe in He Immortal Gu in the future? You big fool, I can't help you. Valing poked Sha Yi's head and said angrily, she felt that Sha Yi was really inconsiderate and not thoughtful enough.

Thinking about what Valing said, Sha Yi rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "It's me who is too selfish, I just want to see Fangrong, and I forgot that I can't let everyone find out that you are pretending to be He Xiangu." You see, my broken head really let the flood swoon me, a little irrigated, I can't find the south, south, west, and north. Don't laugh at me, you know, I'm usually very smart, and I don't like that. ”

"And you can really boast that you are very smart. I want to ask you, if you were really smart, how could someone have stolen the silver ticket? You see that you are a Dingbei Marquis who is miserable and borrows money from people everywhere, if this is spread out, it must not be told as a story? Valing looked at Sha Yi and said sarcastically, hoping that Sha Yi would not always brag.

"Ling'er, please stop talking about this mess, you must know that everyone has a time when the lights are dark. I was also stolen inexplicably, and I feel so embarrassed, but I'm glad I met you, otherwise I guess I would really have to beg to go back to the capital. Sha Yi looked at Valing and said very embarrassedly, he didn't expect that he had been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, and he actually had a time to plant.

"In my opinion, you are destined to be called Hanako this time. You see, this time our silver ticket is gone, you might as well beg to go back to the capital. I don't want to take you with me to work, a fool like you, if I take you out to work together, it will definitely hurt me. Valing looked at Sha Yi's strange eyes, and suddenly wanted to get rid of him, because she didn't want Sha Yi to fall in love with her, and she only needed Su Fan as a lover in this life.

"Ling'er, don't worry, I'll go to work with you, I will never cause trouble for you, I will listen to you for everything, can't you? As long as you let me follow you, besides, you can't just watch me, you really should ask Hanako to beg back to the capital, isn't this a bit too cruel? Sha Yi looked at Valing and begged, hoping that Valing would have mercy on him and not drive him away.

"Is it cruel? I don't think so, and I didn't let you be called Hanako. You must know that natural and man-made disasters, after you go back, you will tell others that you were washed away by the flood, and the silver ticket is gone, so that if you beg to go back to the capital, no one will laugh at you. Valing had made a good excuse for Sha Yi, and it sounded like it was going on.

"If you really want to beg, then I want to ask you to beg with me, so that I have a companion on the way back to the capital, so that I won't seem so bored." Sha Yi looked at Valing and said that if Valing was by his side, he believed that the next days of begging would definitely be very happy.

"I don't want to be called Hanako, I think it's a shame for me to be the eldest lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion to be called Hanako! I'd better choose to work! Valing knew that it would be difficult for him to get rid of Sha Yi for a while, so he had to let him follow him, and he had no choice but to find a laborer to do it.

"Where are the recruitments? Now that the flood has just passed, I believe that many businesses and places have not been put in order, and no one will hire people to work at all. Sha Yi put his hands in his sleeves and followed behind Valing like a pug, almost not leaving.

"Sha Yi, I'm annoyed, don't follow and mumble. We are penniless now, and we have asked many people, but we have not asked a single one who needs labor, and then we are afraid that we will starve to death in this Jiangnan. "Valing misses that steamed bun and half a bowl of braised pork now, and if there were more such laborers, she would still do it.

It's been a long time since they've eaten, Sha Yi and Waling are really hungry and weak, their eyes are full of Venus, and they feel a little unable to drag their legs, and they may fall down at any time.

"Ling'er, after walking for so long, my belly is a little hungry." Sha Yi touched his hungry stomach and said to Valing.

"I said Dingbeihou, if you are hungry, just endure it first, you must know that there is nothing to eat now. Not to mention braised pork and steamed buns, there is no sweet potato cake. If you're really hungry, you might as well pull your belt harder, maybe it will hold you up a little longer. Valing teased Sha Yi helplessly.

Listening to Valing's words, Sha Yi believed that it was true, really untied his belt, strangled it vigorously, and thanked Valing: "Ling'er, you really have you, you actually let me tighten my belt when I am hungry, this kind of bad idea is also up to you." ”

Seeing Sha Yi's stupid appearance, Waling said with a smile: "I'm doing this for your own good, you must know that tightening your belt is very effective, it is the best way to keep you hungry, if it is someone else, I won't tell him." This is you, and for your sake, I will dedicate such a good plan to you. ”

Sha Yi and Valing didn't find a laborer, but the two were still very happy, and kept joking to pass the difficult time.

"Ling'er, are you hungry? If you're hungry, tighten your belt a little bit as well, it will really work. Sha Yi touched his tightened belt and said to Valing stupidly.

"I'm so hungry, it looks like that's all I have to do." Valing reluctantly untied her belt and tightened it hard, which made her feel more energetic.

"Ling'er, I'm afraid we won't be able to find a laborer for a while, let's find something to eat to fill our stomachs first, we can't carry it like this, if we are hungry, we will be miserable." We don't have a single silver ticket on us, and if we get sick then, we won't be able to rule the law. Sha Yi looked at Valing and discussed.

"You don't seem to be wrong, but where is there anything to eat? You know, now that the flood waters have just receded, everything is soaked in water, as if there is nothing to eat. Valing looked at Sha Yi and said anxiously.

"Ling'er, do you remember, aren't there a lot of lotus roots under the West Lake? Let's go there and dig lotus root to eat, you know that raw lotus root can also be eaten. It can not only fill the belly, but also very nutritious. Sha Yi looked at Valing and said excitedly, hoping to get Valling's approval.

"You're right, at the critical moment, your brain is still a little useful." Valing smiled in surprise and teased Sha Yi.

The two agreed and happily came to the West Lake, but they were very disappointed to see that the flooded West Lake was a mess.

Looking at the stumps and rotten leaves everywhere, as well as the lotus flowers and lotus leaves that had been scraped off, floating everywhere, Waring and Sha Yi felt so distressed. The originally picturesque West Lake was baptized by a typhoon so quickly, and it was so miserable.

"The water is so deep and so muddy, how dare we go down to dig lotus roots, I think if we fall, I'm afraid we will all lose our lives." Valing looked at the turbid surface of the West Lake and said to Sha Yi.

"I didn't expect that the originally beautiful West Lake would become like this all of a sudden, it's really a pity. Then it looked like we were both destined to go hungry. Sha Yi touched his belly and said disappointedly.

Valing suddenly saw a fish floating towards them, and shouted to Sha Yi in surprise: "Hey, Sha Yi, there is a fish here, let's catch it quickly." ”

"Wow, it's a dead fish. It seems that this typhoon mixed with hail is really powerful, not only destroyed the entire West Lake, but even the fish were stoned to death, which is really a pity. But it's okay, just enough for the two of us to have a full meal. Sha Yi stepped forward and hugged the big dead fish, and said to Valing with a wry smile.

"We have fish, but we don't have firewood, so we can't eat them raw. You see that the firewood and grass are wet everywhere now, what can we do? Valing looked at the big fish that Sha Yi was holding and said very unhappily, she finally understood now what it means to be able to watch but not eat.

"Ling'er, I heard that Oriental people eat sashimi, why don't we cut it and eat it as sashimi, it's pretty good." Sha Yi suddenly thought of the Oriental way of eating that he saw in the book, and said to Valing in surprise.

"Eating sashimi... I also seem to have read it in a book, but I have never eaten it, so it seems that we only tried it once today. Waring looked at the big fish in Sha Yi's hand, and felt that it would be a pity if he threw it away, knowing that this was the only food they had now.

"There is no other way but to eat sashimi." Sha Yi put the big fish on a stone slab, and began to use the dagger he carried to scrape off the scales on the fish's body, then cut open the fish's belly, rinse it, and then use a small dagger to slice it into a piece of scale shape, which is very beautiful.

"Sha Yi, your knife skills are good, I didn't expect the fish fillets you cut would be so thin and so crystal clear, it looks really appetizing." Valing picked up a piece of fish fillet and said very happily to Sha Yi, this Sha Yi's knife work is really good, the cut fish fillet is really thin, and Waling can see everything through the fish fillet.

"I often practice carving at home when I'm idle, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now. Alas, it's overkill. Sha Yi looked at the small sashimi and said sadly.

"Do you need some condiments? Are we going to eat it raw like that? It's going to be fishy when eaten raw. Valing took the sashimi and put it on his nose and sniffed it, licking his lips and said.

"Ling'er, you just have to do it. What's the condiment? You must know that the food we have now is quite good if we don't starve to death, but if we ask for good food, it will be difficult. Sha Yi was very sad and comforted Valing, hoping that Valing would not be too picky.
