Chapter 168: Returning the Favor
Gao Han, Hu Bao and others are not from a family, they eat something when they are hungry, although it is a little difficult to swallow, but even their own sons have eaten them, and they have nothing to say. As for Hu Erbao, he has even eaten Guanyin soil, not to mention this bran porridge, but he ate too well two days ago, and today he suddenly ate bran porridge, which made him feel that the gap was a little big, and Ji Gang picked up the bowl and ate it without care.
The bran porridge is not so palatable, so except for Na Yicheng, the others are just barely filling their stomachs, and Zhang Zhiji and Luo Yangxing are still hungry at this time.
After the pot of bran porridge was eaten, Zhu Youzhen said to the poster: "Let's arrange a place for us to live." ”
Yi Cheng nodded and stood up to the crowd: "Everyone, please come with me." ”
Zhang Zhiji stood up very reluctantly, looked at Yicheng and then at Zhu Youzhen with a resentful expression, and then said: "I'm hungry, I want to live in Tianzi No. 1." ”
Zhu Youzhen glared at him and said, "Do you think this is a five-star inn?" Return the first number of Tianzi. ”
"Fifth brother, may I ask what this five-star is?"
Zhu Youjian said: "The so-called five-star inn not only has a soft big bed, but they also invite you to eat steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted goose, braised pig, braised duck, sauce chicken, bacon, Songhua belly, dried meat, sausage, ......."
Zhang Zhiji hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, okay, fifth brother, don't say it, the saliva is going to flow, hurry up and go to sleep, you won't be hungry when you fall asleep." Zhu Youzhen said a few words, and then heard Zhang Zhiji and Luo Yangxing gurgling in their stomachs.
Zhu Youjian said: "Yes, if you fall asleep, you won't be hungry, but people who haven't eaten are usually hungry and can't sleep." ”
Zhang Zhiji and Luo Yangxing ignored this sinister person anymore, and hurriedly followed Yicheng away.
Yicheng divided the room for everyone, but not long after, he saw Zhang Zhiji running out of the room, he looked at the busy Yicheng and asked, "Why can't the oil lamp in this room be lit?" ”
Yi Cheng said: "Except for the oil lamp in the hall, there is no lamp oil in the others." ”
Zhang Zhiji stroked his forehead with one hand and said helplessly: "It's the first time I've seen such a poor post station." ”
At this time, Zhu Youzhen, who was standing behind Zhang Zhiji, said: "How many post stations have you seen in total, a person who has never even been out of the capital?" I'm afraid this kind of situation will be inevitable in the next few days, so you have to be prepared. After talking to Zhang Zhiji, Zhu Youzhen took out an ingot of fifty taels of silver and handed it to the Yicheng and said, "Can the Yicheng divide the remaining lamp oil with each house?" You can take this silver and buy some more tomorrow, it is really inconvenient to move without an oil lamp, and it is not good if you bump into it. ”
Seeing that Zhu Youzhen was fifty taels of silver, he hurriedly excused himself and said: "I can't do so much, the villain goes to bring the lamp oil, not to mention that this lamp oil is originally purchased by the county government, how can the villain accept the son's silver." ”
Zhu Youzhen smiled and stuffed the silver into Yicheng's hand and said, "You can keep this silver, and go find a better Lang Zhong to take a look at your legs in the future, maybe you can be cured." ”
The fifty taels of silver are five times the funds allocated by the county government for half a year, and it is also false for the post to say that he is not tempted, and when he heard Zhu Youzhen say this, he no longer shirked, but just saluted Zhu Youzhen and said: "Thank you Gongzi, the villain will go and get lamp oil." After speaking, the post turned around and was about to leave.
Zhang Zhiji saw that Zhu Youzhen's hand of sending silver was very effective, he hurriedly grabbed Yicheng, and then also took out an ingot of fifty taels of silver and stuffed it to Yicheng and said, "I wonder if Yicheng can help my son buy some food?" For example, chicken, duck, fish, or something? ”
Hearing this, the Yicheng hurriedly stuffed the silver back to Zhang Zhiji and said: "It's hard for adults to be villains, how can there be any chicken, duck and fish to eat in these years." ”
When Zhang Zhiji heard this, he hurriedly stuffed the silver into Yicheng's hand and said, "There is no chicken, duck and fish, there is always rice and steamed buns, right?" ”
Na Yi Cheng said: "Although these things are few, they are not impossible to buy, but the distance is very long, and adults will not be able to eat them tonight no matter what." ”
Zhang Zhiji waved his hand and said: "If you can't eat it, you can't eat it, you can eat it early tomorrow morning, you can take this silver to help us buy some morning food, it's best to have some meat, if you really don't have it, forget it, you can accept the more silver taels yourself, and the right to make amends for what my son said when he ate."
Yi Cheng said: "The adults are serious, there are a lot of adults who have passed through the small post, my lord, you are polite to say this, and other people have more ugly words than this, and the villain will not take it to heart." ”
Zhang Zhiji said: "Then think of it as your hard-earned money, in short, you just accept it." After speaking, without waiting for the post to say more, Zhang Zhiji turned around and went back to the room.
Zhu Youzhen looked at Yi Cheng and said with a smile: "Since he gave it to you, you will keep it, this son is not short of money, Yi Cheng will try to buy as much as possible when he goes to buy food, I don't know what the situation is on the road, we can also prepare some dry food for the road to eat." ”
Yi Cheng said: "Don't worry, Childe, these silver are enough, the villain will go to the place where the food is sold early in the morning and wait, and how many villains will be all covered for you to bring back." ”
Zhu Youzhen said: "I'm tired of the post." ”
Yi Cheng said: "Childe is polite, it is the blessing of the villain to meet a few of you who are not so unpretentious, and you have also got the reward of the two of you, these are what the villain should do, Childe, you go back to the house later, and the villain went to fetch the lamp oil." After saying that, the post man limped away.
After a short time, the post man took the lamp oil and added it to each room one by one, and the originally dark post station suddenly lit up.
With the light, everyone packed up and went to bed early. Early the next morning, when Yicheng beckoned the group to get up and eat, a few people who originally thought it was another pot of bran porridge saw a pot of white flour steamed buns, as well as a plate of pickles and a pot of white rice porridge on the table.
Yesterday's dinner time this post Cheng also said so miserable, but one night has had such a big change, a few people, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what happened for a while, I thought that the post was making up a story with them, but I felt that the post was not like a lie.
At this time, Zhang Zhiji finished admiring everyone's surprised looks, then cleared his throat and said proudly: "This is the morning meal that this son has the foresight to help us buy, you don't have to be polite, just eat." ”
It's just that before he finished being proud, he was still waiting for someone to praise him, and he saw that those people had already eaten like wolves and tigers, as if they hadn't eaten for a few days, but they were just some white flour steamed buns and white rice porridge, but what these people ate was even more delicious than the noodles they ate in Jinan Mansion.
Zhu Youzhen patted Gao Han and Hu Bao on the back and said, "The fifth brother hasn't come down yet, and you have started eating?" ”
Gao Han didn't look back and said: "The splendid girl is still grooming the son, the son let us eat first, and they will arrive later." ”
Just when a few people were halfway through eating, Zhu Youzhen and Jinxiu came down from the upstairs room.
As soon as the post man saw Zhu Youzhen come out, he hurriedly walked a few steps to Zhu Youzhen, and then took out a thing wrapped in oiled paper from his arms and handed it to Zhu Youzhen: "Childe, this is what the villain saw someone sell when he came back, and there is only such a one left, so the villain bought it back, Childe hurry up and eat it while it's hot." ”
Zhu Youzhen took the oiled paper bag in Yicheng's hand, and listened to the meaning of his words, this is a food thing, Zhu Youzhen opened the oiled paper, and saw this white and chubby bun inside.
Na Yicheng pointed to the bun and said excitedly: "Meat filling, son, taste it quickly." ”
Zhu Youzhen just hasn't touched meat for a day, so he is not as excited about this meat bun as Yi Cheng, but he can also understand Yi Cheng's intentions, so he naturally will not refuse. He smiled at Yicheng, thanked him, and then handed the meat bun to Jinxiu and said, "Xiu'er, last night's bran porridge is not to your liking, so eat this meat bun." ”
Jinxiu smiled and took the meat bun and said, "Gongzi Xie, it's just that Gongzi doesn't eat it, and I don't eat it either." ”
Zhu Youzhen asked: "But what if there is only one meat bun?" ”
At this time, Zhang Zhiji, who was eating on the side, heard the words of the two, so he walked over with this white-flour steamed bun in his hand, looking at the bun in Jinxiu's hand, Zhang Zhiji said to the poster: "Okay, you post, yesterday my son asked you to bring some meat, and you actually gave them this bun." ”
Na Yicheng said a little embarrassed: "The villain is also helpless, the one who sells buns is not sold every day, and there is only this one left when the villain meets today." ”
Zhang Zhiji pointed at Zhu Youzhen and the others: "So you gave it to them?" ”
The post man bowed his head and did not speak.
Zhang Zhiji looked at Jinxiu and said: "Since you don't want to eat a meat bun alone, it's better to give it to me, and don't be so embarrassed about yourself, I will help you solve this difficulty." ”
Jinxiu said: "What Zhang Gongzi said is really confused, isn't it okay for me and Gongzi to have half of a meat bun?" ”
Zhang Zhiji was bored, so he had to return to the table and continue to eat his steamed buns and pickles and white rice porridge.
Jinxiu broke the meat bun from it, and then divided it with Zhu Youzhen in half, Zhu Youzhen didn't reach out to take it, and directly opened his mouth and took half of the meat bun out of Jinxiu's hand.
Luo Yangxing looked at the two of them from the side, and couldn't help but say: "Alas, the world is going down, these two people are flirting there early in the morning, and they don't let people eat?" ”
Zhu Youzhen also ignored Luo Yangxing, half a meat bag filled his mouth, and at this time, he just wanted to reply a few words, but he couldn't say anything in his mouth.
After Zhu Youzhen swallowed the buns, he walked to the post and asked, "Do you have any dry food?" ”
Yi Cheng nodded, turned around and walked into the back kitchen.
After a while, I saw that Yicheng walked out of the back kitchen with this white cloth bag in his hand, and the white-flour steamed buns made today are all here, a total of three hundred, and I think it is enough for a few adults to eat for three days.
Zhu Youzhen took the cloth bag and walked towards the dining table, and after the group had breakfast, they were about to set off again.
