Li Kuan's house is not large, it is an old mansion with a two-entry courtyard structure. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 In the info living room, Qin Li was sitting at the top, and Yu Dayou, Zhou Fan, Dahu and others all had seats. Murong Bing was a woman after all, so she simply went to the back house to visit Li Kuan's daughters.

Hehe! On the surface, it was a visit, but in fact, Murong Bing was a careful person, and when she saw Li Kuan and several of his servants all dressed in shabby clothes just now, she was already very puzzled. Naturally, I went to the back house to find out something from the female dependents.

Li Kuan is a seventh-rank official, without Qin Li's permission, he naturally didn't dare to sit down, at this time, he only stood tremblingly in front of Qin Li, waiting for Qin Li to ask.

Qin Li squinted his tiger eyes slightly, carefully observing the furnishings in this hall. Alas! Where is there any decoration, a table of eight immortals seems to be some years old, it has turned gray and white, and it has long faded. A few chairs creaked as they sat up. Besides, there are no other furnishings.

Shabby, the life of the county is like this, this is too shabby? Can...... Regardless of what it looked like for the time being, after this local tyrant divided the land, the county should have some silver in his hand? Doesn't he know about subsidizing his family? 、

looked Li Kuan up and down for a long time, Li Kuan was a very calm person, Qin Li didn't ask, he just stood straight like that, without saying a word. Yu Dayou couldn't help it at this time, and said, "Master Li, don't say anything else, how about getting us some food first, Lord Qin and I haven't eaten for two meals, and our stomachs are so hungry that we don't feel conscious." ”

In Yu Dayou's opinion, this Li Kuan can't run away anyway, so he simply eats first and then cares about him. Because of his troubled thoughts, Qin Li forgot about hunger. But when he heard Yu Dayou say this, he also said, "Yes, Master Li, go get some food, we're all hungry!" ”

"This ...... Oops, I really forgot, Lao Li, go and prepare food for the adults. Remember, this is the prefect, so we must bring our best things! Li Kuan said hurriedly.

The old man who was guarding the door at the beginning turned out to be a housekeeper and was called Lao Li. At this time, he listened to Li Kuan's orders, and he didn't look at Li Kuan, so he hurriedly went to prepare.

A handyman had already served tea, and Qin Li and the others were not polite, so they drank water while waiting for the meal to be served. It may be that Li Kuan has no tea at home, in short, it is white water that comes up. Fortunately, Qin Li didn't have the habit of drinking tea, and drinking white water was a trick.

The meal was not unpleasant, corn and wild vegetable porridge, black flour buns, and a pot of stewed meat. Apparently the meat had been stewed earlier, and had only been heated up a little, so it was prepared quickly.

Boom! That's what you eat at home? This is the same as the food I saw in the old man's house in Pangjiazhuang. Wild vegetable dumplings, wild vegetable porridge, isn't this the characteristic of Suning County? Every family is like this, even the old man of the county is no exception. No need to ask, the pot of stewed pork came from the government office.

Li Kuan had already said that he wanted to present the best food.

Qin Li took a bite of the vegetable dumplings, bitter, bitter.

I took a sip of the wild vegetable porridge again, and there was a moldy smell that went straight to my nostrils. Is this fucking human food, can you swallow it? Qin Li's face turned cloudy in an instant.

Yu Dayou and the others were indeed hungry, but they also ate a mouthful of vegetable dumplings, and after drinking a mouthful of porridge, they vomited on the ground, which was really unbearable. I had no choice but to start with that pot of stew.

I just took a bite and couldn't help but spit on the ground again. Salty, salty death does not pay for life.

Li Kuan saw the scene in front of him, but there was no expression on his face, he said, "My lord doesn't know, we haven't eaten meat in Suning County for many years, and this year, the prefect gave everyone pork, where is there a reason not to save, so I put more salt." The goal is to eat more days. ”

Yu Dayou rolled his eyes angrily. Heart, nonsense, nonsense, this Li Kuan is by no means a good official, he is too disguised, right? But, huh! Wait, see how Qin Li cleans you up.

Qin Li is the prefect, and although Yu Dayou is Qin Li's senior brother, he is an entourage in the final analysis, so he held back his anger and kept silent.

At this time, Qin Li had long lost his appetite, but he calmed down at this time. Li Kuan couldn't run anyway, so he investigated slowly. He pondered slightly and said, "Master Li, have you ever had dinner?" ”

"If you go back to your lordship, Xia Guan hasn't eaten dinner yet. The lower officials' families all eat two meals a day, no food in the morning, and one meal at noon, so this meal is eaten later in the evening. ”

"Oh! Hehe! In that case, let's come and eat it! Qin Li said with a smile. He pointed to the chair next to him and asked Li Kuan to sit down.

"Thank you, sir!" Li Kuan bowed behind him, bent down and sat beside Qin Li, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate them.

It's really strange to say, the thin porridge that is extremely dry and exudes this musty smell Li Kuan tastes good to eat. The bitter wild vegetable dumplings tasted even sweeter to him.

Looking at Li Kuan's gobbling up and enjoying look, Qin Li was confused again. Li Kuan's appetite was not small, he drank two bowls of gruel, and after eating four vegetable dumplings, he stood up with a full burp and stood with his head down.

When Li Kuan was eating, Qin Li had not been idle, while he was observing Li Kuan, he was also carefully observing Li Kuan's servants.

Qin Li immediately stood up, and said with a smile, "Lord Li has a good appetite, it seems that we are ashamed of ourselves, this kind of food is not enough to eat, it seems that in the future, we will have to learn from Lord Li and experience the suffering of the people more!"

Li Kuan, have you ever let the fat pig sent by the government be slaughtered? Did the pork ever go down? ”

Although he was extremely angry in his heart, Qin Li didn't show it at all on his face. He still has a gentle face. When Li Kuan heard this, his body trembled slightly, and he immediately knelt down, "If you go back to your lordship, all the fat pigs have been slaughtered and all the pork has been distributed." It's just that Pangjiazhuang didn't send pork. ”

Without waiting for Qin Li to ask, Li Kuan said again, "Presumably, the adults will definitely blame the lower officials, but this Pangjiazhuang does not send pork, but there is a secret reason."

Pangjiazhuang was originally a poor small village, and the people there lived in poverty! It was the year before last, when the emperor went to Jiangxi to exterminate King Ning, passing through Pangjiazhuang. At that time, there was a large family in Pangjiazhuang with the surname Pang and the name Dragon. Pang Long is a butcher who kills pigs and comes to the county seat to sell. Unfortunately, he pushed the pork and happened to run into the emperor's micro-suit.

Well, my lord knows that the emperor has ordered a ban on pork consumption throughout the country, and this Pang Long's bold selling has angered the emperor. However, for some reason, the emperor actually lifted the will of the people to ban the consumption of pork, but only issued an order that the people of Pangjiazhuang should not eat pork.

Lord Prefect, you said that there is an order from the emperor not to let Pangjiazhuang eat pork, do the lower officials dare to send pork to Pangjiazhuang? (To be continued.) )
