Chapter 13 The two young men of the Li family

"Something that doesn't have long eyes...... This is the second young master of the Li family, Li Xiaoshou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

The girl with phoenix eyes glared at Ah Ling, and said with her head held high.

Ah Ling was not too surprised, as soon as he saw the two people in splendid costumes just now, Ah Ling had roughly guessed their identities.

However, he pretended to be surprised on the surface, and said, "Second...... Second Young Master?! ”

"Humph! Now I know I'm scared! The Danfeng-eyed girl Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, and she snorted coldly.

Ah Ling smiled dumbly: "Haha...... I dutifully watched the night guard in the dining hall, and I didn't do anything against the house rules, what am I afraid of! It's the two of you, as the master, sneaking into the dining hall in the middle of the night, if I report to the master, I'm afraid you and the second young master will have to be punished, right? ”

'Second Young Master' Li Xiaoshou looked frightened, and his fat little face turned pale with fright.

The girl with red phoenix eyes also looked nervous, but she was quickly relieved.

"Hmph, you don't bluff here. As a newcomer like you, you don't even know what the old man looks like, do you? Who do you think you are, and you can meet whoever you want in the middle of the night?! The red-eyed girl said.

"It's not hard!" Ah Ling said: "Believe it or not, as long as I shout 'catch the thief' now, a large number of patrolling escorts will soon come over, and the movement will definitely be very big, and it will definitely alarm the old man!" I believe that within ten minutes, you will appear in front of Master Li......"

The girl with the red phoenix eyes knew that what Ah Ling said was true, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What do you want?" Say, how much does it cost? ”

"I don't want money!" Ah Ling shook his head and said, "I just want to know, why do you pretend to be ghosts in the dining hall in the middle of the night to be scary?" And also...... Who are you? Why does the second young master call you aunt? ”

The girl with Danfengyan glanced at the second young master, and faintly felt that the new 'stupid and bold' subordinate in front of her could do everything, and if she didn't do what he said tonight, I am afraid it would be difficult to pass perfunctory.

"My name is Jin Lan, and my sister is Jin Feng......"

Seeing Ah Ling's dazed face, Jin Feng, the girl with Danfeng eyes, knew that this newcomer didn't know who Jin Feng was, so she immediately added: "My sister Jin Feng is the ninth lady of Li Lanxuan and Master Li......

Ah Ling instantly realized - it turned out that she was the younger sister of Li Lanxuan's ninth aunt. According to the generation, Li Xiaoshou wants to call Jin Feng 'Nine Mother' or 'Nine Niang', so naturally he has to call Jin Lan 'Aunt'.

- Although Jin Lan is only three or four years older than Li Xiaoshou.

"Why do you pretend to be ghosts in the middle of the night and come to the dining hall to scare people?" Ah Ling asked.

Jin Lan was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Li Xiaoshou, and said angrily: "It's not because of him!" ”

It seems that she has no reverence for this 'second young master', on the contrary, Li Xiaoshou seems to be in awe of Jin Lan's 'aunt'.

"Him?" Ah Ling glanced at Li Xiaoshou, who was like a 'meat ball', a little puzzled.

"His father wouldn't let him eat meat, so he begged me to come to the dining hall to steal meat and eat it!" Jin Lan shook her head helplessly and said, "I'm afraid of being discovered, so I can only pretend to be a ghost...... It's been successful before, only you, a newcomer, dare to get out of the bed, and dare to do it to the 'demons and monsters'! ”

As Jin Lan said, those who took turns watching the night in the 'dining hall' before were so frightened that they shivered in the bed every time, and they deliberately snored there and pretended to sleep, which was really laughing to death. But this time, the new kid was ruined, and he also recognized their identities.

Ah Ling had already understood, looked at Li Xiaoshou who was like a round ball of meat, and smiled......

"Laugh what a laugh! You dare to make fun of me, I'm the second young master of the Li family! Li Xiaoshou said.

"Second young master who steals meat to eat, hahaha......" Ah Ling said with a smile: "Master Li is right, you are so fat that you really can't eat meat anymore!" ”

"Cut, you're a newcomer, why are you teaching me a lesson?!" Li Xiaoshou looked at Ah Ling, who was only one or two years older than him, and said unconvinced.

"Hey, what's your name?" Jin Lan asked out loud.

"My name is Ah Ling." Ah Ling replied, "I only entered the house yesterday, and tonight is my first vigil!" ”

Jin Lan nodded, as if she didn't want to stay here for a long time, and took Li Xiaoshou's fat hand like a big steamed bun and prepared to leave.

"Can you ask a question?" Ah Ling suddenly said, "Why do you only come to the dining hall on the fifteenth day of every month? ”

"Because ......" Jin Lan glanced at Li Xiaoshou and said, "The master will spend the night in the fourth lady's house on the fifteenth day of every month. He usually sleeps in the same room with his mother, and only on the fifteenth day of every month, he sleeps alone in the side room! Therefore, the second young master can only sneak out and pretend to be a ghost on the night of the fifteenth. ”

Ah Ling knows!

Li Lanxuan has so many big wives and little wives, she must be like the ancient emperor to 'turn over the brand', the second young master's mother is Li Lanxuan's third concubine, from the eldest lady down, she ranks fourth, so she is the fourth lady.

Before entering the mansion, Ah Ling had some simple understanding of Li Lanxuan, knowing that he had married a total of twelve concubines, and the thirteenth aunt who had just accepted last year was only sixteen years old......

Li Lanxuan and the eldest lady respect each other like guests, and their favorite is their 'Ninth Lady' Jin Feng, but the stomachs of these wives are not very competitive, only the eldest lady and the 'fourth child' of the 'main house' gave birth to two dolls for him, and they are both male babies, so Li Lanxuan is not worried about the continuation of the Li family's incense.

Li Lanxuan's favorite is the old nine and the new old thirteen, in a month, at least twenty days are in the residence of these two 'sleep', the remaining less than ten days will also spend the night in the old ten, the eleventh and a few of them will spend the night, the second, the third and a few others in their forties, the old pearl, Li Lanxuan has not been to their house for several years, however, he will always sleep in the room of the eldest lady and the fourth every month, which is more like a reward and grace - because the two of them gave birth to a male baby for him!

"Ah Ling, if you dare to say anything about tonight, the second young master and I can't spare you!" Jin Lan threatened.

"Don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped." Ah Ling looked at the second young master Li Xiaoshou, and he had an idea, realizing that this was a God-given opportunity, and he must not let it go easily.

"Second Young Master, have you eaten enough?" Ah Ling asked with a smile.

"I haven't eaten meat yet!" Li Xiaoshou said with an aggrieved face: "As soon as I opened the basket, I was startled by you jumping out!" ”

Li Xiaoshou touched his round belly, very dissatisfied.

On the night of the fifteenth day of every month, it was a carnival night for him to enjoy a 'feast', and only on this day could he indulge in the indulgence of eating meat in the dining hall!

However, I'm afraid it won't be possible tonight!

Li Xiaoshou greedily glanced at the goose meat, braised pork, and oily meat in the bowl, and couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.

"What's so good about these leftovers!" Ah Ling pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "Do you want to taste meat that is a hundred times more delicious than this?" ”

Li Xiaoshou's small squint eyes, which were so fat that there was only a gap left, bloomed with a big light that did not match the small eyes.

"A hundred times better than these? You...... You're not lying to me, are you?! Li Xiaoshou stared at Ah Ling, as if Ah Ling had turned into a tempting piece of miso meat.

"Don't believe him, he must be lying!" Jin Lan said: "If he had such good skills, he would have been a master a long time ago, and he would also work as a small helper in the canteen to help others?" ”

"If you don't believe it, forget it." Ah Ling retreated and said, "Then you guys go, I should go to bed too." ”

Jin Lan snorted coldly, grabbed Li Xiaoshou's sleeve and was about to leave.

Li Xiaoshou's two feet seemed to be rooted in the ground, no matter how Jin Lan pulled it, she couldn't pull him at all.

"Do you want to come with me?" Jin Lan glared at Li Xiaoshou and said.

"Auntie......" A flash of fear flashed on Li Xiaoshou's fat face, but he insisted on saying: "Either believe him once, and punish him severely if he lies!" ”

"You're ......!" Jin Lan seemed to be very angry, Li Xiaoshou had always listened to her, but she didn't expect to disobey her tonight.

"Then you can stay here, and let me help you in the future!" Jin Lan turned around and left the dining hall, and before leaving, she didn't forget to use her charming Danfeng eyes to glare at Ah Ling.

Ah Ling showed a wry smile, and immediately said to Li Xiaoshou: "Second Young Master, you better go back to sleep first...... It will be dawn in two hours! ”

"But......" Li Xiaoshou seemed reluctant to leave, presumably he still had high expectations for the food that Ah Ling said.

"Second Young Master, you go back first. If you really want something delicious, then come to me tomorrow after dinner in that grove in the backyard, and I'll be waiting for you there! Ah Ling said seriously.

"Okay then." Li Xiaoshou nodded helplessly, took a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and said, "Hmm...... All right! By the way, don't lie to me! ”

"Second Young Master, I don't dare to lie to you!" Ah Ling said with a smile.

……

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, when Meng He, Ah Si and others came to the dining hall, they found that Ah Ling looked as usual, not at all like he had been frightened all night, and they were all very curious.

When they learned from Ah Ling that nothing had happened in the dining hall last night and that he had slept soundly, they were all incredible.

Choosing vegetables, cutting meat, washing dishes and washing pots...... These are the jobs that Arling should do.

After a busy day from morning to night, I ate gruel and pickles for dinner, and added some broth.

Only a few chefs such as Meng He can eat a little bit of the leftover meat dishes, and the little helpers such as Ah Ling and Ah Si are not qualified to use chopsticks!

After Ah Ling left the dining hall, he did not return to his residence, but went in the opposite direction - the Li family's extremely large woods!

Ah Ling got a shovel, found a big tree in the woods, dug it with a shovel next to the tree, and after half an hour, dug a large deep pit half a man high.

He climbed up from the pit and rested on the wooden handle of the shovel.

Ah Ling calculated the time and frowned slightly-dinner time had already passed, why didn't Li Xiaoshou come yet? Is this 'little meat ball' going to release its own pigeons?
