Chapter 607: Hatred
Seeing that Li Zheng was a little puzzled, Xiao Man explained with a smile: "I don't open a good hall, as for the people who come to work for me, let them have enough to eat." ”
"I also paid for it, so I don't have to worry about their families going hungry, so do you understand?"
Li Zheng nodded, no matter what, in fact, he was very grateful to Xiaoman and the two of them for waiting here: "Knowing Mrs. Gu, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter." ”
After all, it's different now than it was at the beginning, yesterday Xiaoman and the two tried every possible way to stay, but today it became that they wanted the two of them to stay.
The next Gu Xiangning saw that everything was almost arranged, so he went back to the inn in the city, and the next day, Bai Zhen and the others came very early.
Xiao Man and Gu Xiangning had just finished eating and they came, so the group set off, and Li Zichun began to speak: "The place we went to this time is called Changshan." ”
"If we go by horseback, it will take about two days, and in the other two nights, we can rest in the villages we pass by, and give some silver taels."
The group rode off on horseback, Bai Ziyan saw that Bai Zhen really played, and he was still very happy in his heart, and couldn't help but be a little speechless, if it goes on like this, when can the Li family be transferred.
And the affairs of the Li family don't seem to be so simple, this Li Zichun doesn't seem to know anything about this aspect, which makes Bai Ziyan a little uncertain.
What is the situation of the Li family, Bai Ziyan is already completely confused, forget it, it's still early anyway, they can still check slowly.
In the evening, when they saw a village, they came to the entrance of the village, and then they saw a few children again, and they didn't have to think about it.
I'm afraid these children are guarding at the entrance of the village again, these people usually have to do things, so even the children are used, and the people in these villages rarely see horses.
One by one, their eyes widened, they wanted to lean over, but they didn't dare, so that it made people feel a little sad, Xiao Man coughed twice, and put on an expression that he thought was very kind.
"Children, where are the adults in your family?"
The eldest child took a step back with the doll next to him, and then ran quickly towards the village, shouting as he ran: "Grandpa, there is a horse coming......
Burst...... Xiao Man and the others heard this sound that a horse was coming, and suddenly thundered to death, they are obviously people, okay? Does this baby only see Ma Cheng in his eyes?
Soon an old man walked out and looked at Xiaoman's group of people: "Is there something wrong with a few young ladies of the child?" ”
It was still Xiaoman who spoke: "This old man, it's like this, we are from Bingcheng, we are going to Changshan to hunt, passing by here, thinking about going to every house to eat something, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then looked embarrassed: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that what our family eats is coarse grain, I'm afraid a few people are not used to it." ”
Xiao Man smiled when he heard this: "Old man, we are very hungry now, so if we have something to eat, we don't dislike it." ”
When the old man heard this, he didn't dare to forcibly drive people away, these rich people came from the ice city, and the water knew that his temper was good?
If it was the kind of bad one, I drove it away, and I was afraid that it would cause trouble, so I had to bring people in, and then looked at my old wife: "Old woman, go cook quickly." ”
"Kill that chicken."
said that she was still a little reluctant, and the old woman was also stunned for a moment: "My chicken still has to lay eggs!" You also know that the dog's egg is weak, so he relies on the eggs laid by the chicken to make up for his body. ”
The old man was also uncomfortable: "What can I do then?" Is it true that only sweet potatoes are given to those nobles? What will happen to our entire village when the time comes? ”
While talking, many people outside carried their own things and pretended to be: "Lizheng, this is the wild vegetables we just picked this morning, and we brought them to you." ”
It was a little girl who spoke, and there were other people who also brought things, and looked at Li Zheng: "Li Zheng, everyone has little food at home, and there are not many people to find nobles." ”
"Let's just make up a little bit of a bit, is that enough?"
One by one, they all looked at Li Zheng, and Li Zheng nodded: "Enough, everyone's food is small, let's just eat some, and then kill this chicken, it's almost over." ”
The old man was distressed, but compared to a chicken, it was obvious that the lives of the whole village were more important, of course, this group of villagers didn't know what they were saying outside, Xiaoman and they all heard it clearly.
After all, the hearing of people who practice martial arts is much better than theirs, Xiao Man glanced at Gu Xiangning, and then at the others: "It seems that we have caused trouble for them." ”
"I just don't know, how can the people in this village be so afraid of the people in the ice city?"
Li Zichun was also puzzled: "Why don't you ask?" ”
Bai Jia shook her head: "If you ask like this, I'm afraid it won't work, let's spend the night here tonight, and by the way, you can also inquire, what do you think?" ”
"Also, don't go and expose these people, everyone knows the orders from above, there are children guarding the village entrance, they must all know, and they must pretend that their lives are good."
"I'm afraid it's not good for them if it's exposed."
Xiaoman nodded: "What Sister Jia said makes sense, so let's do it." ”
Bai Zhen suddenly spoke: "Old man, have you eaten well?" We were on the road for a day and didn't want to eat greasy, we wanted to eat some light vegetables. ”
"It's best to have wild vegetables, I haven't tasted wild vegetables for a long time, make more wild vegetables."
She heard that there was a wild vegetable just now, so she should be able to save the chicken, after all, that chicken is now the life of that dog.
Xiao Man and everyone were staring at Bai Zhen, how could this girl suddenly become so smart! Bai Zhen glanced at everyone: "What are you looking at me like this?" ”
"I've been eating too much meat lately, and I'm a little tired, isn't it good to eat some wild vegetables? Boiled wild vegetables and some sauce, it tastes good. ”
Xiao Man burst out laughing: "You're right, I think it's better for me to do it myself, I haven't cooked for a long time, and my hands are itchy." ”
Hearing this, Bai Jia and Bai Zhen's eyes lit up, they knew that this Sister Chen's cooking skills were superb! They all nodded.
"Yes, yes, if you don't practice much about cooking, you will definitely be rusty, Sister Chen, come on."
Looking at Bai Zhen's appearance, Xiao Man was instantly helpless, but he still stood up and walked out: "Two old men, please hand over the ingredients to me, and I'll make them." ”
If they hadn't missed the town in the middle, they wouldn't have fallen under the order to stay in the village, of course, on purpose.
The two old men were stunned for a moment: "This lady, you want to do it yourself?" ”
Xiaoman nodded: "Yes, my husband can't get used to eating other people's cooking, and it's already very disturbing to you, I can do it myself, where is the kitchen?" ”
Li Zheng didn't dare to offend, so he had to point to the location of the kitchen, Xiaoman walked in directly, the kitchen was not big, but it was very clean and looked very warm.
Xiao Man nodded with satisfaction, at least it wasn't messy, and then looked at the things sent by Baixin just now, and quickly cleaned up and washed the wild vegetables.
Then he found out the millet and sweet potatoes, boiled a large pot of sweet potato porridge, and then fried the wild vegetables.
So some fragrance soon wafted out of the kitchen, and everything was almost done, and when Xiaoman was just about to bring it out, he saw a small child appear at the door of the kitchen.
The child's eyes looked at her with some hatred, Xiao Man was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, what is going on with this doll? Looks like there are secrets in this village.
looked at the little baby: "Child, are you hungry, if you are hungry, come over and I will serve you food." ”
The child glanced at Xiao Man, then turned around and went in, Xiao Man ate a closed door, a little sullen, so that Bai Zhen had already smelled the fragrance.
But he didn't come to the table yet, and he couldn't help shouting: "Sister Chen, I'm going to starve to death!" Okay, no, people are tired all day. ”
Xiao Man rolled his eyes: "If you want to eat yourself, come to the kitchen." ”
Bai Zhen was not polite. got up directly and went to serve the food, Li Zichun saw this situation, of course he followed, Bai Zhen didn't stop talking all the way.
"Sister Chen, what did you make, it's so fragrant, hey, why did you divide it into two parts?"
Xiaoman rolled his eyes, "It occupies other people's kitchens, and people don't have to eat!" ”
As he spoke, he asked Bai Zhen to carry two large plates of wild vegetables, Bai Ziyan to carry a pot of pancakes, and then Xiao Man went to the table with the porridge himself.
Seeing that Li Zheng was still standing next to him, Xiao Man couldn't help but speak: "Li Zheng, I still have some left in the kitchen, you can also go to eat, you don't have to stay here." ”
Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, feeling that the nobles who came to Ice City this time were different from the last time, Li Zheng nodded: "Thank you, this lady." ”
Then he went out and went to the backyard to call the old woman back, and the eldest grandson outside and the little grandson in the room were called to the kitchen.
Seeing that the rest of the things were just enough for the four of their family to eat, they couldn't help but be a little moved, smelled the good taste, and picked up a cake and gave it to their wife.
"Eat quickly, old woman."
I brought a cake to the eldest grandson, and the younger grandson filled a bowl of porridge, and then the eyes of several people lit up, it was so delicious, they had grown so big.
I never knew that sweet potato porridge could be so delicious, and I almost gobbled it up, and the little grandson of the Lizheng family flashed in his eyes.
I don't know what I'm thinking, and everyone on the other side is also praising Xiaoman's craftsmanship, especially Li Zichun: "Well, it's delicious." ”
"Sister Chen, you are really amazing, you actually make such ordinary things so delicious, you are so capable, why don't you open a restaurant."
"It's definitely a hot business."
Xiaoman couldn't help but roll his eyes, is this person stupid? Do you want to open a restaurant if you are good at cooking?
