The rest of the Liu family was not so optimistic.

After Liu Yang left from the Jiang family, his body trembled unobediently.

Wang Erya was frightened and grabbed her hair and cried.

Aunt Liu and Liu Cai comforted her on the side, but they couldn't leave.

Aunt Liu simply gave Liu Qu two coins of silver and asked him to go to the county to buy some daily necessities and food.

Liu Qu looked left and right, and he didn't gain anything, he came by an ox cart, and the cost of going back and forth was ten cents.

He took the remaining pieces of silver and copper plates in his hand, and mocked himself with some disdain.

"Huh, just these few and a half children, what good things can I buy, my mother is too stingy, and the family is not without money, the eldest brother came back last time and brought back more than one or two pieces of silver, just give me two dollars of silver what can I do."

He had a withered grass in his mouth, listless. Suddenly, he heard a familiar shout, "Come, come, buy and leave!" The odds are high and you can win a lot! A book of ten thousand profits! ”

Liu Qu stopped, there was a gambling house in front of him, it was very noisy, and he really listened to it standing in the middle of the road. So he started to think crookedly.

"My mother gave me two coins of broken silver, I put away this broken silver, and simply gambled two handfuls with this copper coin, and it was just right to win, even if I lost, I still have the capital, and I can explain it when I go back."

With this idea, Liu Qu strode into the gambling house, and after he entered, he immediately felt a little refreshed. He had nothing to do every day in the village, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, but the odds and capital of those gambling stalls in the village were very small, and most of them were just playing, and no one regarded this thing as a career.

Except for him Liu Qu.

Liu Qu entered the gambling house, and there were people pushing pai gow, shaking dice, and the screams of gamblers, and Liu Qu was a little rippling when he saw it.

"Then I'll play two!"

He licked his lips and followed up on the crowd, Liu Qu has liked to stay in the gambling stall since he was a child, and he also understands some of the basic processes here, following his own thoughts and ideas, with more than a dozen dollars, in less than a while, it will accumulate into a lot.

After winning a few times, he came to the great court with a full copper plate in his hand, and exchanged the copper money for broken silver, which was as much as three coins of silver.

Liu Qu looked at the silver he had "worked hard" to get, and wanted to leave with great satisfaction, but the voice of the great courtservant behind him attracted his attention.

"Little brother's luck is so strong today, more than a dozen dollars have multiplied several times, congratulations."

"What do you want? I don't have a lot of money, these are all won by skill, how can there be so many compliments on the table! Liu Qu raised his guard, for fear that these people would not let him go.

"Little brother, where is this, on the gambling table, winning or losing depends on God's will, just to see the little brother's gambling luck, why not take this opportunity to kill the Quartet? You know, luck doesn't follow you all the time. ”

The big courtier had a smile on his face, and he seemed to be a little more kind.

These words happened to hit Liu Qu's heart.

Now the principal plus the money won is nearly five taels of silver, and if the time comes, these few coins of silver may become several taels, or even dozens of taels.

The eldest brother and the third brother always said that I didn't learn anything, and if I got back more money than the two of them combined, I would see who of them would look down on me!

Liu Qu thought of this, took out all the silver, and rushed to the crowd again.

Mu Qingniang entered the kitchen and looked at the ingredients in the kitchen, feeling a little inexplicable.

"This Jiang Dashan man, what did he say to relieve the siege for me, just like him today, I'll be thankful if he doesn't trouble me."

She saw two processed black chickens hanging at the tuyere, the skin of the chicken that had been blown by the wind was already tight, the whole body was black with white, and the two chicken feet were as black as charcoal. So she reached out and plucked the black chicken.

"But he has always helped me teach the Liu family a lesson, and there will be a lot less trouble in the future, so I should thank him."

Mu Qingniang put the black chicken on the board, chopped off the chicken feet with a knife, and then stuffed a lot of spices into the chicken.

The people in the kitchen knew that she was a noble person in the Jiang Mansion, and no one dared to stop her, and even the chefs in the Jiang Mansion secretly aimed at her.

After Mu Qingniang stuffed the spices, she instructed a subordinate to take some wolfberries and codonopsis in the warehouse, clean them, and soak them in water for a while.

She put the chicken with the spices in the casserole, took out the soaked herbs, added them together, and put them on the fire.

After a while, the stove boiled the casserole, Mu Qingniang opened the lid, skimmed off the foam, and began to simmer slowly.

The aroma of chicken with a hint of medicinal fragrance spread in the kitchen, and the cook on the side couldn't help but swallow when they smelled the smell.

Unexpectedly, this Dr. Mu not only has superb medical skills, but also excellent cooking skills.

Mu Qingniang calculated the time, removed the casserole from the heat, and then brought it to the tray.

The subordinates of the Jiang Mansion took the tray and walked to the middle hall where Jiang Xiaoyu was with Mu Qingniang.

When Jiang Xiaoyu smelled the aroma, the casserole was already on the table, and Mu Qingniang opened the lid of the casserole, and the water vapor dispersed.

"Codonopsis black chicken soup, strengthen the foundation and cultivate the yuan, and make up for the weakness. For you now. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu scooped a spoonful of soup and put it in his mouth, savoring the pot of chicken soup.

"Qingqing, the way you thank you is really special."

When Mu Qingniang heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said in her heart that she was really convulsive, so she specially made medicinal soup for him.

She really felt sorry for what she had just done, so she sat down beside Jiang Yuxiao with a puffed ass, and scooped a full spoon into her bowl.

Jiang Xiaoyu's face suddenly became strange.

Mu Qingniang didn't seem to notice the change in Jiang Xiaoyu's face, but she ate very calmly. Just like at home, I took a sip of the soup and thought it was very delicious, so I pouted a chicken leg and put it in my bowl and took a big bite of it.

This is also done with my own effort, and I can't all be cheap.

The subordinates of Jiangfu are almost faceless with fright, and usually the uncle does not smile when he eats, and the subordinates are quietly watching from the side.

Now this Doctor Mu is actually bold and reckless to eat at the same table with him, and treats him as if he doesn't exist, and the uncle didn't say anything today, but his expression was a little strange.

"Huh? Why didn't you say anything and ate it yourself, didn't you make it for me? Jiang Xiaoyu deliberately spoke to her with this tone.

In fact, when they were in Linshui Village before, the two of them had a meal together, and Jiang Yuxiao didn't really reject it, but no one in the Jiang Mansion knew about it.

"I made this thing, it's really good for your injury, but it's not made specifically for you, don't be sentimental. Remember, I'm a doctor, and I'm not a subordinate of your Jiang Mansion! Mu Qingniang was still eating by herself, and she didn't even look at him.

is a good Mu Qingniang, usually arrogant like this, thinking that Jiang Yuxiao has met so many women, there is almost no one who dares to talk to him like this.

But Mu Qingniang seems to be like this on purpose, a woman is cute if she has a small temperament, but it is not good-looking if she is excessive.

Jiang Xiaoyu thought like this, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

He took another sip of the chicken soup, the soup was delicious and delicious, the color of the soup was as transparent as water, and through the casserole, he could even see the whole black chicken and some medicinal herbs.

Jiang Yuxiao has been accustomed to eating since he was a child, and he has never tasted any delicacies from the mountains and seas, just a bowl of chicken soup, yes, no matter how it is, it should be just a bowl of chicken soup, which actually made him taste a different taste.

"Although your body seems to be fine, but in fact it hurts your vitality, and the circulation of the meridians is also relatively disordered, so now you should eat light, I didn't put any thick oil red sauce, just simmered slowly, and added egg white to the soup to absorb fat and impurities, so that the effect of the drug can also be maximized."

Mu Qingniang watched Jiang Xiaoyu look into the casserole, thinking that Jiang Xiaoyu was still not at ease, so she simply explained it rigorously.

The subordinates on the side understood at this time and tried to write it down.

"Qingqing, you are so good to me, then of course I have to repay it." Jiang Xiaoyu finished drinking a bowl of soup, felt a little warm in his body, approached Mu Qingniang's ear, and said these words softly.

When you exhale, the heat wave hits the pinna and tickles.

"Ahem, ahem!!" Mu Qingniang listened to what Jiang Xiaoyu said, the spoon was not held steady, the soup in her mouth choked, and the cough was earth-shattering.

I thought that there must have been a moment just now, when I relaxed my guard and let such a terrifying person say such strange things in my ear.

The maid of the Jiang Mansion hurriedly stepped forward and patted her gently on the back.

Mu Qingniang hurriedly changed her breath and tried to recover, and after a while, she gasped lightly and calmed her heart.
