Chapter Ninety-Four: The Rice Porridge Is Paste
Chen Lilan gently saluted Su Su, and said in a tactful tone: "I also want to thank Sister Su Su for coming to accompany my master and servant." As he spoke, he watched Feng Jian's reaction from the corner of his eye.
Su Su glanced at Feng Jian, hurriedly supported Chen Lilan, and said with a grin: "Sister Chen, you are the eldest lady of Zhizhou Mansion, it's too late to be happy with your sister...... Sister, don't dislike your sister, it's good that your sister is a country girl. ”
Chen Lilan looked at Su Su unexpectedly, feeling that the meaning of Su Su's words was not so simple!
Chen Lilan couldn't understand for a while, so he turned his gaze to Feng Jian and said: "The little female master and servant are now living here, and they can only verbally express their gratitude to the commander, and when they really return to the side of the father of Pingdu Prefecture, I think that the father will not be stingy with the great grace of the commander to save the little woman's master and servant!" ”
Feng Jian had come into contact with Chen Lilan's master and servant yesterday, and he had the impression that an eldest lady like Chen Lilan, who was born in an official family, would have some contempt and contempt for himself and Su Su and other thieves from the Zhuang family, so he was very worried about whether Su Su was wronged here.
I really didn't expect Su Su to have a night of contact and communication with Chen Lilan's master and servant, and when she came into contact with Chen Lilan again, she began to show sincerity from her demeanor to her words, at least on the surface, she was no longer a rejecting look for herself, the leader of the bandits.
This should be regarded as the credit of Su Su Xiao Nizi, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Xiao Nizi poured into Chen Lilan and Xiao Hairpin all night, which made Chen Lilan and the two of them change from a hot potato to a willing to contact the exchange belt!
Well, I'll be sure to ask for it in a while, if Xiao Nizi responds vaguely, hehe, just wait for the little ass to be slapped by herself! Feng Jian kept all kinds of thoughts in his head.
Just as he was about to say a few words to Chen Lilan, he suddenly smelled a scorched smell, so he naturally turned his gaze to the little hairpin and blurted out: "Hey, is the rice porridge burnt!" ”
Xiao Hairpin has been standing behind Chen Lilan, a pair of beautiful eyes are secretly looking at Feng Jian, and when he heard Feng Jian's words, he was stunned, and suddenly screamed, and rushed into the stove in three or two steps.
Feng Jian and Cheng Yousheng looked at each other, and they couldn't smile bitterly!
Chen Lilan looked at the stove with concern.
Su Su was about to step into the stove to check the situation.
At this moment, the little hairpin stuck her head out of the stove and said with a sad face: "Miss, Sister Su, the rice porridge is smoking!" ”
Feng Jian laughed and said, "It's okay, breakfast has already been prepared in the front yard stove room." Cheng Yousheng went to the front yard to get some porridge and steamed buns, and the commander invited Miss Chen and Su Su to breakfast! ”
Xiao Hairpin turned his head to look at Feng Jian, and suddenly asked, "Why do you only invite my young lady and Sister Su Su to dinner, and Xiao Hairpin too!" ”
Looking at Xiao Hairpin's ignorant expression, Feng Jian couldn't help but tease: "I just invite Miss Chen and your Sister Su to dine!" ”
The little hairpin was confused, and said with some shame: "That little hairpin hasn't eaten yet?" ”
After a pause, seeing Feng Jian laughing, and then seeing that the young lady was standing aside and not speaking, Su Su smiled at herself, and then she understood that Feng Jian was ridiculing herself, her cheeks immediately turned pink with shame, and she pouted and said, "You...... You're such a scoundrel! Always leave half a sentence when you speak, and make fun of the hairpin! Miss, Sister Su, you two also watch the little hairpin jokes!. ”
Although Feng Jian was joking, but when he teased the hairpin in front of him, Chen Lilan always felt a little uncomfortable.
I have the heart to scold a few words, but I am afraid of misunderstanding, and my life and Xiao Hairpin are still in the hands of others. Chen Lilan looked at Su Su, only to see that Su Su beside him was just pursing his lips and smiling, obviously not as worried as much.
Thinking about it yourself, I think it's ridiculous, what is there to be unhappy about when people joke with the little hairpin, do you want the man in front of you to make fun of yourself?
Su Su saw that the little hairpin was still cramped, so he smiled and said: "Feng Jian is joking, the rice porridge will be cooked next time, don't choke on the stove, the little hairpin will come out quickly!" ”
After calling a few times, the shy little hairpin came out of the stove, glanced at Feng Jian quickly, turned around and walked behind Chen Lilan to stand still.
Feng Jian saw that he had made a small joke, which caused the atmosphere between several people to change, implying that everything had to be done in moderation.
Because of Su Su's arrival, he and Huluyan have initially gained the trust of Chen Lilan's master and servant, and it should be said that the purpose of coming to this courtyard has basically been achieved!
Feng Jian suppressed his smile, turned to Chen Lilan and said, "Miss Chen is temporarily living here, and Su Su will always accompany you here until your master and servant leave." There is no need to worry about security, as the soldiers of the Earthquake Mountain Battalion will monitor the compound day and night. When you are bored, you can also go to the stockade or the square to stroll. When everything is done, this commander will definitely escort Miss Chen and the others back! ”
Chen Lilan bowed slightly: "Then thank you commander, the two little girls are waiting for good news!" ”
Feng Jian shook his hands and said, "There are still a lot of things outside, so don't bother!" Su'er bothered you to accompany Miss Chen here on my behalf, just notify the guard at the door if you have something! ”
Feng Jian didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Su Suming's eyes looking at him a little strangely, and Chen Lilan had already twisted his face to the side, as if he didn't care about the ambiguity in Feng Zhen's words, but he didn't know that the gap between his neck had already turned pink.
Feng Jian coughed dryly, just as Cheng Yousheng came in from outside with breakfast, Su Su walked a few steps, took Feng Jian's breakfast meal, and whispered to Feng Jian: "You can rest assured that you are busy, the slave family will accompany Sister Chen and Xiao Hairpin well, and will not let your mind be disappointed." ”
Feng Jian didn't hear the other meaning of Su Su's words, and nodded: "Su Er has done a good job in this matter. ”
Chen Lilan looked away with a sideways face, although he couldn't hear what Su Su and Feng Jian said clearly, but with the girl's intuition, the conversation between the two must involve herself.
Thinking that Feng Jian asked Su Su to accompany him in his words just now, he felt that his heart was like a deer collision, Feng Jian himself seemed to have no intention of saying it, but he saw that Su Su and he listened to it with a heart!
His eyes swept over Feng Jian and Su Su slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of envy!
The little hairpin standing behind Chen Lilan looked at this scene, but pouted his lips with a distressed expression.
Feng Jian Cheng Yousheng said goodbye from the courtyard, had breakfast in the front courtyard hall and returned to the Mocone Mountain Hall, only to see that Qin Huaibao, Jiao Gong'er, Zhou Donkey, Liu Zongxi and others in the hall were gathered here.
Feng Jian stepped into the hall and said with a smile: "Everyone is quite early, have you all had breakfast?" ”
Jiao Gan'er said: "I have already eaten, and the villain has assigned tasks to several special commanders." ”
Feng Jian nodded and asked casually, "Is there any abnormality in the grinding cone cottage at night?" Is there any mistake in the food materials in the back mountain? ”
"It's still the commander who has a lofty vision, and the villagers in the village are very honest at night." Jiao Gang Eryu reported.
Feng Jian nodded and said: "This is reasonable, ordinary bankers are willing to try to be stable, and few people dare to make trouble unreasonably." ”
Jiao Gan nodded, and continued: "In addition, after an overnight inventory, a total of two hundred and thirteen trolleys were stored in the back mountain, including one hundred and twenty-nine vehicles loaded with grain and flour, and about 700 stones of grain and grain; thirty-three vehicles loaded with cloth, tung oil, and cotton; Another forty-two carts were captured women from Mill Cone Mountain, and they had been released into the stockade; The remaining 27 carts were loaded with iron, farm tools, charcoal and other critical supplies. ”
Feng Jian was immediately moved when he heard this, and he said: "There are so many iron materials, the bottom of this grinding cone mountain is quite thick, and the iron materials and charcoal and other materials are transported back to Huluyan, and the happiest person is Zhang Dalai and the people from the Weapons Research Institute!" ”
Jiao Gan'er pointed to the wooden box beside him and said: "In addition, more than nine hundred and sixty-three taels of silver have been seized, and all kinds of jewelry and jewelry are immeasurable for a while, and the villain has been sealed." ”
Feng Jian said with a smile: "No wonder the grinding cone tiger is willing to rob along the way, it turns out that robbery is the easiest way to get rich!" Well, these silver jewels were sealed first. Our Huluyan power will become bigger and bigger, and all aspects will need more and more silver taels in the future. ”
Jiao Gang said: "I don't dare to spend lavishly if I have money, we have to sneak into the state city, and we want to buy farm tools and iron materials and other materials in large quantities from the city, I'm afraid that we can't even get out of the city gate!" ”
In the Ming Dynasty, the household registration management was quite strict, and the government built a household sticker for each family, and the family names, family members, and family property were listed in detail and clearly.
Each household sticker in triplicate, the household department, the political envoy department, the state and county where they are located each have a copy of the bottom, commonly known as the yellow book, all levels of government issued service service, pay taxes must be distributed according to the yellow book household sticker.
Fugitive households like them, whose household registration is still in the yellow register, but they are not in their original hometown, are the objects of hatred of their parents and county officials, so most people dare not go to the state capital casually.
Hearing Jiao Gan'er's exclamation, Qin Huaibao and several other farmers thought it was true, and nodded in agreement with what Jiao Gan'er said.
Of course, Feng Jian also understands that his current identity as a homeless person is a bandit, and he is the target of the government at all levels, and it is useless to entangle him in this matter.
So he turned to Qin Huaibao and said, "Have all the food and grain to be distributed in the square been prepared, will there be a phenomenon of not being able to distribute it?" ”
Qin Huaibao bowed slightly and said: "The villain and others extracted more than 300 stones of grain noodles from the back mountain, plus more than 180 stones in the square, it should be more than enough." ”
Feng Jian nodded and said, "Okay, everything is ready, just wait for us to start!" ”
