Chapter 174: Stealing Fruit in the Middle of the Night
"Huh?" Yi Fang was stunned for a moment, Xindong and Xinxia both squeezed in, staring at each other with big eyes, their eyes shining to the table, and Xindong shouted in his mouth: "What's it, it smells so fragrant?" ”
"Suck Yo-Yo !!" The cherry sweetly took another sip and deliberately smacked his mouth loudly: "Wild vegetable soup." ”
At this time, most of the wild vegetables were shepherd's cabbage. The shepherd's cabbage dug up in the courtyard was washed, only half of the cherries were kept, and the other half was taken by Yifang to honor the lady in the kitchen, and he came back with a raw egg and beat it in the vegetable soup. Now this pot of soup is turquoise and green, with white egg whites, yellow egg yolks, and a thin layer of sesame oil on top, and the house is filled with fragrance.
The two brothers of Xindong and Xinxia swallowed saliva greedily, and stretched their necks with their eyes in front of them: "Drink!" Can wild vegetable soup be so fragrant? Where do you get wild vegetables? ”
"The compound was full of floors. Why, don't you see? As he spoke, he took another 'suck'.
Xinxia rubbed her hands and smiled: "Yixi, you are really capable, you can also find edible things in the palace." Our two brothers have lost their parents since they were young, so they asked people to sell them back and forth, and finally ended up in the hands of Uncle Xin. When I was not much older, I entered the palace, where did I recognize any wild vegetables? ”
"Oh......" Cherry nodded, and took a few sweet sips, not intending to be polite to the two of them.
Yifang was even more polite, seeing that he couldn't drive the two away, he sat down angrily, picked up the bowl and drank it vigorously, and said while drinking: "Yixi's ability is great!" I can't go hungry anywhere. Today's food is wild vegetables, tomorrow's dinner may be better!! In his heart, he called the gray bean root that Yixi said.
"We have a lot to eat in the mountains. If it has just rained, take a small basket and go up the mountain...... "Cherry dyed all the wild things on the mountain in Xiaomiao Village with oil and vinegar, and smacked his lips while drinking the soup in the bowl.
The two brothers of Xindong and Xinxia swallowed their saliva greedily, and when they heard Yi Fang say this, the two of them glanced at each other, and the smile on their faces deepened. Step forward, one left and one right, on both sides of the cherry.
Xindong said: "Yixi, you have just entered the mansion, Xinxia and I haven't helped you celebrate, our brother will invite you to eat baked buns at noon tomorrow, okay?" ”
Xinxia said: "After eating the baked bun, we are brothers, and we will advance and retreat together in the future, and when you are in trouble, our brothers will never back down." ”
What you're going to say is that after eating your baked buns, I'll have to bring you two with me if I get anything to eat in the future, right? Cherry smiled darkly, her face remained impassive, and she looked at Yifang.
Brother Xindong and Xinxia had eyes, both looked at Yifang, and smiled: "Yifang, will you go together?" ”
Yifang came to the spirit.
"Ahem" cleared his throat, Yi Fang raised his chin slightly, leaned back into the chair, and looked flamboyant: "How dare I eat your things?" On weekdays, I see that I pick my nose and eyes, if I eat half of your bun again, then I must not be poisoned to death? "How can it, how can it?" Xindong smiled and looked at Yifang: "It was all a joke with you before, you see that you are still serious." We're all in the same compound, we're not close, who are we close, aren't we? ”
Xinxia slapped Xindong with a 'snap', and said: "It's all your mouth, there is no good or bad one, and there is no sense of proportion when joking." Yifang is our good brother, if you are estranged because of this, I will never pay attention to you in the future! ”
"Tut-tut, you are really affectionate people." Yifang shook his head and sighed.
"That'...... Are you going? Xindong was happy and looked at Yifang cautiously.
At this time, the two brothers, Xindong and Xinxia, slightly bent their burly figures, both leaned in front of Yifang, looking at him as if asking for his life, but they didn't bring him tea and beat his legs.
Yifang had never been treated like this, blinked, and looked at the cherry again.
"I have to ask Uncle Yi tonight for this matter. If he wants to send us tomorrow, won't he be able to go? Cherry didn't deny or affirm, only gave a lie: "Let's talk about it tomorrow." After speaking, he continued to drink the soup with his head down.
When Yifang saw the cherry drinking soup, he also lowered his head to drink the soup, and the movement was very loud.
The two brothers swallowed their saliva heavily. Xindong smiled all over his face: "Okay, okay, I'll come over tomorrow to listen to Xin'er." ”
Cherry and Yifang buried their heads in the soup and said nothing.
Xindong and Xinxia glanced at each other, and the two brothers were reluctant: "Then, let's go back first!" ”
"Oh." There is no intention to be polite to them and leave them for soup.
Xindong was slightly disappointed, pulled Xinxia out of the house, went out of the courtyard, and took the courtyard door with him.
"I said, why did you tell me to let them in?" As soon as he saw them leave, Yi Fang raised his head and looked at Cherry with a smug and happy face: "Hehe, this trick really works, call these two brothers to be obedient, where do you dare to beat us up for any bad ideas?" As he spoke, he gestured very excitedly: "Didn't you see Xindong just now, the saliva is flowing here!" ”
"Your saliva is not lacking." Cherry laughs.
"Who told you to be so greedy as you say about the most ordinary Onoyama? We are people who have drunk three soups, and when we say we eat, which one can not drool? Yifang grinned indifferently, and suddenly lowered his voice, faintly excited: "Yixi, when are we going to do what you said about going to the big garden to get food?" ”
"Are you willing?" I was afraid of this and that just now, but now I am so proactive. Cherry looked at him amusedly.
"I'm thinking, when Xindong and Xinxia watch us drink enough and dress warmly, how wonderful their expressions will be." Yifang's eyes were full of longing, shining little stars. This kid really doesn't know what it was like to be bullied by Xindong and Xinxia before.
"Tonight, then." Cherry finished the last sip of soup: "If we can get something to eat tonight, we won't have to worry about it in the future." If we can't get it, we have to continue to worry. Tomorrow at noon, I will go to eat the steamed buns of winter and summer. ”
"Great!!" Yifang was excited: "I don't know how much food they robbed." This time, I'll eat them too!! ”
"Look at your excitement. Don't show your feet when you serve Uncle Yi tonight. Let's go on as usual, go to bed and get up again in the middle of the night. Remember, I had to ask for those two chairs from Uncle Yi's room. When the time comes, you let the wind out here, and I'll go over there to get food. ”
"Great! The chair thing, wrapped around me! Yifang was excited, and his face turned red. The hand slapped the dry chest fiercely.
I came back in the evening and didn't find anything unusual. He ate his two buns and a plate of small greens as usual, took a hasty bath, and fell asleep.
I don't know what Yifang said, but the two high chairs that were originally placed in Shunyi's house were moved to Yifang and Cherry's house.
In the middle of the night, the two quietly got up and moved their chairs out of the house.
Again, in the corner, put the two chairs on top of each other.
You are here to watch, and if there is any movement, learn to meow. Cherry said as she tied a cloth bag around her waist.
"Cat meow?" Yifang's voice trembled a little: "Cat bark...... Cats, cats? ”
"You stupid! Is that how a cat barks? It's Meow, Meow!! Cherry said, looking back at Yifang, to find that his hands were shaking.
It's hard for this child, a good obedient rough servant, who is forced to eat in such a situation, knowing that he may violate the precepts of the palace, he still has to steal things from the big garden to eat. Alas......
"Oh, oh......" Yifang urged a little anxiously: "Okay, you can go quickly!" Don't waste time and come back soon!! ”
"Keep watch, I'll be back soon." Cherry turned to look at him again, and climbed up the wall in her chair. Then he untied a handful of rope from his waist and threw one end to Yifang and the other end to the wall. She'll have to follow the rope up the wall in a moment.
With that done, Cherry went down the wall along the rope she had laid.
Separated by a wall, there is a courtyard where the men live, but at this end is a large royal and luxurious garden. All kinds of strange flowers and stones, everything.
The large garden at night, unlike the flamboyant beauty in the daytime, the garden at night is quiet and gentle, as if waiting for cherries for a long time, the garden is quiet and empty. The hazy moonlight illuminates the contents of the garden.
It hadn't rained for several days, and the soil on the ground had long since dried up, so I wasn't afraid to step on my footprints. When cherries land, still be careful.
As soon as she landed, she first ran straight towards the fruit tree. What to take, what to take, she has already thought about it. Although grapes are greedy, they are not hungry, they are troublesome to eat, and they are easy to see when picked. And apples can be used to satisfy hunger, and they can't be seen when they are picked, so they give up grapes and take apples.
As for peanuts, there are three or four in total, and they are dug for fear of being seen. Yams and kidney beans are fine. Kidney beans are just picking a few pods, and you can't see anything at all. Yams are clumped in large clumps, as long as you are careful not to dig up its small roots when digging, and leave half of the main rhizome, it is enough to supply nutrients and water to the stems and leaves on the soil, and you can't see anything at all.
Time is in a hurry, and I don't care about picking any yam beans. The cherry picked the apples and kidney beans, dug up a little yam root, put them all in the pocket of his waist, and checked to make sure that everything was okay, and then climbed the rope up the wall.
Yifang has been waiting there for a long time.
Cherry carefully went down the wall along the chair, put away the rope, and moved the chair back to the house with Yifang, one to clean up the footprints left by the chair, and the other to wipe the dirt left on the chair.
This time, there is finally something to eat.
It's a risky thing to do, so if you go, you might as well bring some back.
