Because of her aunt's harshness, she always took precautions and brought something she thought would be useful. In addition to the pockets in her arms and cuffs, her belt can also hide things. She had checked the belt the day before yesterday, and although it was old, it was far from breaking so suddenly.

knew that she hid the money in her belt, and it was Yuan Tianye. Yuan Wu's collision just now, there was definitely a problem.

Staring at the little fox's dark and deep eyes, the eyes of the two collided far away through the fire, and the smell of gunpowder smoke once again filled the air between the electric light and flint.

Sleeping until he wakes up naturally, counting money and cramping his hands has always been Lin Xiaozhu's life ideal. Although the 190 copper coins are not much, the addiction is insufficient. But for Lin Xiaozhu, it is all her family property, so she naturally has to count it clearly. So she didn't feel that there was anything to be ashamed of counting this little bit of money that even the big men didn't care about in front of the public, and she didn't care whether Yuan Wu came back with water, and whether Yuan Tianye was still hungry, squatting there and counting the money.

"Not less, right?" Yuan Wu put the water on the fire to burn, then stared at Lin Xiaozhu and counted the money, and when he saw that she had finished counting, he hurriedly asked. The master is still hungry, and it's really annoying to count this little money twice. However, it was the son who asked her to count, and she hit her by herself, even if she counted slowly, it was not easy to urge.

"Looks like there's three left." Lin Xiaozhu rolled his eyes in his heart. She just did it on purpose. It's normal for a little girl in a mountain village to not know how to count. One hundred and ninety copper coins, it's good to be able to count them clearly, but you can't ask her for speed, right?

Yuan Wu took out ten copper coins from his arms and handed them to Lin Xiaozhu: "Don't count." Now, it's for you. ”

"Don't." Lin Xiaozhu didn't raise his head, "It must have fallen into the grass, just look for it." After saying that, he rummaged around in the grass and found it.

Yuan Wu turned around to look at Yuan Tianye. Seeing that he was staring at Lin Xiaozhu with great interest, as if the starving person was not him, he shrugged his shoulders and simply put away his copper coin, and did not urge Lin Xiaozhu, so she could find it slowly. However, Yuan Lin was used to worrying about Yuan Tianye's food, clothing, housing and transportation, although he had been demoted to a lower army, he still couldn't rest assured, and he didn't dare to cook porridge anymore, so he had to go forward to help Lin Xiaozhu find copper coins. Everyone saw that they couldn't sit still, so they quickly got up and helped find the copper coins.

There is a lot of strength in the crowd, and after a while, the two copper coins that rolled off into the distance were finally found. There is still one missing, but I can't find it.

"Well, maybe I miscounted. I'll count them later. Lin Xiaozhu held back the smile in his eyes, poured out the copper coins from the money bag, and counted them again. After counting, he held his cheeks and thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "It seems right." ”

"Then hurry up and cook porridge. By the time you're done, it's midnight. Yuan Lin endured and endured, and finally couldn't help it, thinking about the hungry son, he urged without suspicion.

After tossing for so long, Yuan Tianye was hungry for a long time, and Lin Xiaozhu's anger was almost gone. put the money bag in his arms, rolled up his sleeves, and asked Yuan Wu to lift the pot, pour water, come out, clean his hands, and cook porridge.

People who have been hungry know the preciousness of food the most, let alone Lin Xiaozhu, who naturally loves food? Even if she knows that this porridge is not made for herself, she will make it carefully and treat the ingredients in her hands with full enthusiasm.

After a while, Yuan Tianye's subordinates hunted another pheasant and came back, and plucked it for later use. Lin Xiaozhu asked for a knife, removed the meat on the pheasant's breast and legs on the simple cutting board made by Yuan Lin, cut the skeleton into pieces, put it in a pot filled with water, and hung it on the fire to cook; Wait for the water to boil, skim off the foam, simmer slightly, put in the washed rice, cover the lid and bring to a boil over high heat, and then simmer over low heat.

Yuan Tianye is either a noble status, or he is very particular about eating. The rice he brought was something that Lin Xiaozhu had never seen in his previous life. The grains are slender and full, crystal clear, and faintly purple; Put it on the palm of your hand and smell it, and a fresh fragrance will come to your nose. When the water boils in the pot, the rich and fresh aroma spreads, and the unique fragrance of the pheasant causes the children to swallow one after another.

Standing by the warm fire, smelling this tempting aroma, Lin Xiaozhu's heart was so happy that he wanted to drink the song. The corners of her mouth were smiling, her obsidian eyes were shining, her long eyelashes were like two small fans flying up and down in the light of the fire, and her palm-sized face burst out with dazzling beauty, and her movements were brisk and rhythmic, and anyone could see that she was very happy now.

"Do you like to make food?" Yuan Tianye, who had been quietly staring at Lin Xiaozhu, seemed to be infected by her happiness, his face swept away the wind and clouds that were as quiet as a pool of deep water, the light in his eyes was extremely soft, and Qing Yue's voice carried a light and happy voice that was not originally there.

"yes." Lin Xiaozhu smiled and glanced back at Yuan Tianye, his eyes curved like the moon were like the bright sunshine in that spring, which made Yuan Tianye slightly stunned, and forgot what he wanted to say for a while.

Lin Xiaozhu diced the chicken in his hand and continued: "Life is in the world, food and clothing are two words. If you don't even love to eat, what's the point of living? ”

"Life in the world, food and clothing?" Yuan Tianye groaned slightly, and laughed, "You came up with this yourself?" It also rhymes. But you're asking too low, aren't you? It's easy to eat and clothe yourself. Having said this, he suddenly remembered that Lin Xiaozhu's original life was a life of starvation and clothing, and he glanced at her with some pity.

Lin Xiaozhu naturally said more than just a literal meaning, but she had no intention of explaining, so she turned her head and asked: "Uncle Yuan only brought salt, and the pheasant porridge tastes good with only salt." But I've got my own spices here, would you like to put some of them? ”

"What kind of spice?" Yuan Tianye touched his chin with great interest. People who can't even eat rice don't know where she got so much fame. Wash your hands before cooking, pay attention to cleanliness in cooking, that is, bring the seasonings with you, talk one by one, and do things without leakage. is the toss that picked up the copper coins just now, most of them on purpose, in revenge for her behavior of revealing her wealth.

This little girl is interesting!

Yuan Lin originally saw that his son was happy, and his eyes were soft with a smile on the corner of his mouth. But as soon as he heard Lin Xiaozhu's words, he suddenly changed color, walked to Yuan Tianye's side nervously, and reminded softly: "Childe......"

The smile on Yuan Tianye's face was slightly reduced, he raised his eyes to look at Yuan Lin, and shook his head slightly. If Lin Xiaozhu wanted to harm him, he wouldn't stop him from eating that bowl of porridge. When Lin Xiaozhu was picking up copper coins all over the ground just now, Ah Wei quietly picked the grass and crushed it and fed it to the rabbit, and the rabbit really had twitching limbs and didn't know whether he was alive or dead. Besides, Yuan Jiu has verified in the village that this little girl has nothing to doubt except that she is extremely smart and clever. Although her words and deeds are strange, if she wants to say that she is harmful to others, he does not believe it.

Lin Xiaozhu saw the expressions of Yuan Lin and Yuan Tianye in his eyes. Guijie Gongzi's heart of prevention, she can understand, and she is not angry. Yuan Tianye was willing to believe her, but it was beyond her expectations.

She said in a cheerful tone: "The ginger and green onions are fishy, and the mushrooms are fresh." Since I also set traps in the mountains to hunt game, I dried them and made them into seasonings for convenience, and added salt to make them ready for use. ”

"It's a good thing." Yuan Tianye smiled and nodded, "You just have to let it go." ”
