Chapter 259: Desperate
The next day, as soon as the day dawned, Ayu woke up.
She saw that there was no one on the other side, so she got up and washed up briefly, and Wei Yu also pushed the door in with three dry noodle cakes.
"That's all they have, let's make it up for a while, and then we'll go down the mountain to buy something."
"Hmm."
Ayu took it, put it on the pot, and boiled the cake into a batter, so that she could eat a hot bite.
After using a little stuff, Wei Yu was ready to take two people down the mountain to buy some supplies.
There is a small town not far from the bottom of the mountain, and Tuba has passed by before they came, and they all know it.
Wei Yu only took two people with him, and he had to stay on it when he left Tuba, mainly guarding the hostages.
The sun was shining brightly, and the snow on the road had begun to melt, and you could see the road clearly, but the road was not easy to walk, and there was broken ice on the muddy floor, which was very slippery.
"I probably won't be back that soon."
Before leaving, Wei Yu said to Ayu in the house.
Ayu was brushing the pot, just faintly, "Hmm." "Silence.
"You can deal with it casually at noon, and I will help you bring good things under the mountain."
Perhaps wanting to say more to her, Wei Yu lengthened the topic.
"I see."
replied without emotion, Wei Yu saw that her face was blank, and his heart was a little stuffy.
It seems that she still has some feelings for Liangwang.
Wei Yu left quickly with two guards, Ayu looked through the crack in the door, and saw that the person was about to close the door and not come out, so Tuba reached out to block it.
"General, what's wrong with you?"
Ayu hung her head, she felt that this person was hostile to her from the beginning, but she didn't know where this hostility came from, because she hadn't seen it before.
Of course, it is also possible that everyone in the Qi King's army is hostile to her, after all, she is the woman of the good king.
"You're Bai Ying's sister?"
Tuba actually knew that he had heard about her before he had seen her, and that he had asked again just to provoke conversation.
"The general knows my brother."
Ayu also knew that his brother had been on King Qi's side.
"Of course we know, we also worshipped brothers, and we swore to live and die together."
Tuba had contempt on his face, and Ayu smiled faintly, "Life and death have their own lives, and this time I will disappoint the general." ”
"Huh." Tuba smiled, "I heard Bai Ying mention that your family is poor, and the children can't read a single word, but I didn't expect you to speak in a literate manner." ”
"Heroes don't ask where they come from, the Bai family is not the Bai family back then."
Ayu would deliberately curry favor with Wei Yu, but she hadn't thought about anyone else.
"There's a kind."
Tuba directly said a foul word, obviously unpopular.
"You don't want to think about what your Bai family relies on to get on top, woman? Hero? Bai Ying is a coward, a coward who defects to the enemy. Phew. ”
Tuba is a rough person, he likes to use his hands, not his mouth, and he can't spit on the woman in front of him directly, and he goes away angrily.
Ayu looked at his back and sneered, she had heard the reason for the loss of Binshan before, and thought that this person was the one who pretended to take refuge and not only hurt her brother, but also opened the city gate.
Saying that others are cowards, how can he not be insidious.
After closing the wooden door, Ayu sat in front of the fire and stared for a while, and then began to pack up the things in the house, mainly to put the clothes into the baggage, which could be taken away at any time.
When she had done everything, she heard the people outside the door walk a little farther away, and quietly felt for something wrapped in a handkerchief in her cuffs.
This was her windfall yesterday afternoon, a black-brown grass rhizome, and a small lingzhi, all dug up in the mountains yesterday afternoon.
Originally, she planned to find an opportunity to stew these two things for Wei Yu to eat, but now that the person was not there, she wanted a chance to escape, and she had to increase the risk.
Ayu took out the lingzhi and put it in the basin, waited for a while, then opened the door and said to the people outside, "General, the taste is light these days, can you go out to hunt a pheasant and change the food for me." ”
was originally a hostage but directly commanded people, and the person who was called was stunned, obviously not expecting that she would make a special trip to make a request, but according to the importance that the little prince attaches to this woman, it is not impossible to let him go out and get something.
"Someone has already gone out to hunt, so wait a minute, madame."
The man replied, Ayu smiled, and was about to close the door, when Tuba, who lived not far away, came over and asked, "What does she want?" ”
Tuba was the leader of this group of people, and the man naturally said it.
"Aren't you a vegetarian? I still want to eat meat! ”
He was disdainful, and he only felt that the people of the Bai family were villains and liars.
"After fleeing for a few days, I only have a belly full of game, which is really helpless." Ayu said, covering her stomach with her long sleeves.
She looked like she was saying that there was no way for her body, and Tuba didn't think that there would be people in this world who couldn't eat meat, so she scolded coquettishly and left.
Towards noon, a few people who had gone out to hunt returned, and the harvest was very rich, including pheasants and rabbits.
Tuba picked the smallest rabbit and threw it at the wooden door, but did not call anyone out to get it.
Ayu had been paying attention to the movement outside, and the door was opened when the thing was thrown over.
"General, are there any pheasants?"
Give her a little meat, and she still picks?
Tuba looked at her dissatisfied.
"I have a lingzhi here, and I want to stew it with chicken soup."
Ayu was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so she took out the lingzhi and showed him it.
The woman also had to eat tastefully, and Tuba was particularly upset, but in the end she brought her a chicken.
"General, is this the biggest? I'll put more water in it, and everyone will be able to taste the soup then. ”
"Who wants you to make something like a woman."
Tuba couldn't help but reprimand, and another lieutenant who had been watching the excitement from the side came over, grabbed Tuba and said, "General Tu is angry, there is someone who can make broth, let the big guys taste it, why not." ”
He laughed and pulled Tuba away, and after a while he threw another chicken at Ayu, and asked if there was any salt in the hut.
Ayu said that there was only the last little bit, just enough to make soup.
The last point is the last point, and the absence of salt is okay.
The people outside were far away, Ayu covered the door, boiled water to clean up the two chickens, used a hoe to make a knife, and after some tossing, finally made half a pot of chicken.
The pheasants on this mountain taste good, even if you add Ganoderma lucidum and grass Wu, it must be bitter and astringent, but this is a great supplement, and I believe that those people outside will not refuse.
Ayu put the pot and added water, simmered for half an hour, and then took out the grass and buried it in the fire, extinguished the firewood, and slowly cooled.
Wei Yu did not return at noon, because the road was slippery, he took the two people to the town just now.
There is only one street in a small town, and there are less than 10 shops, so you can't choose anything to buy.
Wei Yu asked the two guards around him to buy dry food, and he took his horse to the only small cloth shop in the town.
"Shopkeeper, do you have muslin?"
Wei Yu dismounted and asked.
"Yes, as much as Childe wants, only white and cyan."
"I'll take it all, take one of each."
