Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Tragic Life

The furnishings in the house were too simple, Qiu Jue frowned, and the injuries on Moshi's body were not yet healed, so he could only stay in the house to rest.

As for her, she could only be forced to follow Xiaocao to the so-called kitchen.

It was a small place made of stones, and there were dozens of them, all of whom were not young women.

They were dark-skinned and busy as machines, and the so-called board was just a piece of wood lying unevenly on the ground, and a woman was chopping vegetables with a knife, stomping large pieces as if feeding pigs.

A large iron pot was propped up not far away, and something was being fried inside, only a burst of smoke was filling, and not a trace of flavor wafted out.

Especially after seeing the rust on the iron spoon in the woman's hand, and the black bottom was wrapped in a layer of oil or pot, she turned around and vomited directly.

"Miss, are you alright?" Xiaocao was very sensible, patted her on the back, and looked at her with some concern.

Qiu Jue endured it again and again, and it took a long time to get used to it, but her eyes still didn't dare to look there.

I've heard before that the workers on the construction site don't eat very well, but at most it is clear soup with little water, and there is no oily taste.

What she saw in front of her subverted her previous cognition, which is cooking for people, which is worse than feeding pigs.

The man in charge on the other side walked towards them with a knife and shouted.

"What are you two doing in a hurry? Hurry up and wash these dishes. ”

Qiu Jue looked back, were they some dishes? That's almost a pile.

Xiaocao pulled her and walked that way.

When Qiu Jue came to this place, he didn't even have a place to put his feet, and he really couldn't step on it.

Forget about the mud all over the place, mixed with the withered yellow vegetable leaves in the muddy water, looking at her as if she was stained with a lump of poop and wanted to vomit again.

This place is described in only two words, dirty!

In the end, Xiaocao asked her to hide next to the pile of vegetables, so that the mother-in-law in charge would not see it, and she sat next to her and did it quickly.

Qiu Jue took the time to ask Xiaocao.

"Are these for the workers?"

Xiaocao is really hard-working, and she is very quick under her hands, and she replies to her words while working.

"Look at you, you haven't suffered since you were a child, what is this, it's already a conscience to give the workers to eat these, and some of them have a few steamed buns a day with boiled water."

"How can that man have the strength to work when he is hungry?" Qiu Jue couldn't believe it.

Xiaocao continued to laugh.

"Life is almost gone, who is still entangled in whether to be hungry or not?"

The two of them chatted with each other, and after a while, the food was quickly prepared and sent to the embankment.

They've packed it up and it's time to start preparing for the next meal.

There are a lot of people who do things, and they are all men, so they naturally have a lot of strength to eat.

Qiu Jue couldn't hide this time, the housekeeper's mother-in-law personally led the way, she had to go to deliver food silently with Xiaocao, the road on the other side of the embankment was more difficult to walk, there was mud everywhere, and it was very smooth, and she felt like she was going to fall into the water if she didn't pay attention.

She walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and gradually forgot what she was stepping on, anyway, the clothes on her body had already become dirty.

Qiu Jue didn't eat these things on the first day, and Moshi naturally didn't eat them.

Xiaocao had no scruples, happily finished her share, and after eating, she lay down next to her and began to sleep, not worrying about her current situation at all.

At night, Qiu Jue thought about it, but he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so he had to sit up, planning to go outside to see the stars, who wanted to just get up and saw that Moshi was also sitting there not far away.

"Why did you wake up?" Qiu Jue was a little surprised.

Moshi touched his stomach and muttered aggrievedly, "I'm hungry." ”

"Didn't you skip that meal?" What can she do when she is hungry this big night? Is she also hungry, she knew that she would eat casually, it was better than being hungry, but as long as she thought of the cooking process and the venue, Qiu Jue felt that the contents of her stomach were about to vomit up, how could she still eat?

There was no way, in order to divert attention, Qiu Jue talked to Moshi about what he saw on the embankment during the day

"You're saying the gap there doesn't look like it's been hit by water?" The two glanced at each other, both a little surprised, Huai'an sent a big flood, such a big thing killed thousands of people, if it wasn't a natural disaster, what would it be?

"I can't say it either, it just doesn't look like it, the place where the water rushes through it should be smooth, of course it may be that I'm not very close, I didn't look carefully!" How can there be water rushing through, only rushing on both sides, without scruples in the middle?

"I'll check it out tomorrow." Mo Shi spoke, the injuries on his body were no longer a big deal, he was still drugged at the beginning, and he was a little heavier, and he recuperated for a few days, and the situation in front of him did not allow him to recuperate carefully.

Qiu Jue immediately stopped when he heard this, "No, you have a good rest, you are not allowed to go anywhere." ”

The king of a country is going to repair the embankment, do you think this is acting on TV, what about a private interview with Weifu?

"You can go, why can't I?" Moshi bit his lip and asked her like this for the first time.

Qiu Jue was speechless.

"We don't know anything here, can't you be obedient and take care of your injuries?"

If it was in the past, there would be no need to worry about saying such heavy words, Moshi would be obedient and obedient, and almost would not disobey her will, but since Moshi was injured and Qiu Jue took care of her for a few days, the relationship between them has gradually changed.

Qiu Jue also felt that this bear child was becoming more and more difficult to manage.

"My injuries don't matter a long time ago, besides, what is the purpose of our coming to Huai'an this time? Now that we're stuck here, we can't do anything, and we have to find a way to get out as soon as possible. ”

Qiu Jue frowned, she understood everything, but she still didn't worry about Moshi going out on an adventure.

"You don't have to worry about these things, Bai Yu has already gone to join Master Taifu and them, he didn't see our ship this afternoon, he must know that something happened, and he will find us soon."

Mo Shi didn't know what he was thinking, and when he heard Qiu Jue's words, he snorted softly, turned around and ignored her.

Qiu Jue secretly muttered in her heart, what's wrong with this child?

"Do you trust that guy with the surname Bai that much?" A slightly displeased voice suddenly came, but no one looked back.

Qiu Jue's eyes widened, as if he had just heard what he was saying.

"Hey, hey, it's not that I trust him, he's a student of Master Taifu, and he's still your senior."

"I am the Son of Heaven."

"Yes, yes, yes, you are the Son of Heaven, you are the greatest, but this time we really have to wait for them to come to save people."

Speaking of business, Qiu Jue's face became solemn.

"Just our small body, let alone escape from here, the whole thing is living under the noses of others, if you really want to go out, don't do anything, don't mess around."

"I know that they are so strict in their work, even if they are not from the government, they are definitely people who the government cannot afford to offend."

This is the reason why Qiu Jue doesn't want Moshi to act rashly.

Several of them don't know martial arts, those people are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, all of them are fierce and vicious, and when they look at the things in their hands, the muscles that are full of muscles all prove that they are all battle-hardened people.

Although Qiu Jue had never seen the legendary murderous aura anything, these people did make her feel like her hairs were going to stand on end.

I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with, and the levee breaking incident happened so big, these people are not wearing official uniforms, but there are no officers and soldiers to stop it.

Originally, the identity was extraordinary, maybe this is a good opening gap.

Thinking like this, the two talked again, and it seemed that they were not so hungry, but they still thought that they would have to get something to eat tomorrow anyway, otherwise they would starve to death before they could find out anything.

The next morning, before dawn, Xiaocao happily washed her face, and Qiu Jue saw that her pigtails were messy, so she pulled him over.

She was given a simple ponytail.

Xiaocao soon went to the so-called kitchen to help, and Qiu Jue was still hiding and lazy, but those people could also see that Qiu Jue was not the same person as them.

In addition, she has a sweet mouth, a mouthful of sister, and the screams of her sister make them feel a little sorry for this girl, which looks like a rich family has been forced over to make up the number.

All but one of these women was very easy to get along with, except for one who was in charge of the business, who looked wicked and tricky.

Qiu Jue asked them a little casually when did this place start.

However, she did not get an answer, these people only came a few days before them, and it is said that there was also a group of cooks in front of them, but no one knows where they went.

Qiu Jue was shocked in his heart, it turned out that the people here also often had to be changed, it seemed that they really hid something, otherwise how could they often change people and not let others stay more?

Thinking like this, it's time to deliver food again, Qiu Jue and Xiaocao take it alone and carry these things. Follow behind the mother-in-law who is in charge.

The rest of the people were not allowed to walk up the embankment, and they were only allowed to eat at seven o'clock at the time of delivery, and they had to run back and forth four or five times.

The mud on my feet was wet and dry, dry and wet, tangled, I didn't know what my feet smelled like now, but I couldn't, I didn't have a change of clothes here, and I didn't know how many days I would have to stay.

When she walked to a place, she was suddenly a little depressed, and Moshi actually sat in front of her and talked with an old man.

One has a kind attitude and talks eloquently, and the other listens quietly, well-behaved and lovely.

If you weren't in this place, the picture would have been beautiful.

She didn't walk over and take the initiative to say hello, after putting everything down, they had to run a few more times, and when Qiu Jue came over again, Moshi had already left.

In this place, time flies very fast, and when Qiu Jue and Xiaocao go back together at night, Qiu Jue and Xiaocao are already sitting there. It looked like they were waiting for them.

"Huh, what does it smell like? It smells so good. Xiaocao shrugged her nose and looked timidly at the low table beside Moshi.

Inkstone opened his mouth and beckoned them over.

"Hurry up and eat, it's cold."

The four delicate side dishes in the food box are slowly placed on the low table.

"Where did you get that?" Qiu Jue asked puzzledly, they were in the kitchen, and they had never seen such a good thing before.

"I asked them for it." Moshi replied solemnly, and then beckoned them again.

"Leave it alone, sit down and eat."
