596. The Law of Survival
The lid of the pot is lifted, and the rich aroma of meat sweeps in, although there are few seasonings, but in the eyes of the family full of meat, it is still very tempting.
The two little ones couldn't control the saliva at the corners of their mouths anymore, and let it pour down, and Ye Wen, who was a little adult, was no better, and subconsciously wiped the moist corners of his mouth.
Ye Yuan was much better, so he directly picked up the fast son and said.
"I'll taste it first and see if it's ripe!"
Well, this stinky and shameless gluttony directly picked up a piece of chicken and quickly "tasted" it.
The three little ones suddenly rolled their throats, and the two sisters, Qiu'er and Dong'er, looked at Ye Yuan with blank eyes, and asked eagerly.
"Big brother, are you ripe?"
"Big brother, can you eat it?"
Ye Yuan smiled, sandwiched another piece, and still blew it, and the aroma was even more attractive.
Ye Mu looked at it with a smile on the corner of her mouth, Ye Tingting couldn't help frowning: Just taste a piece, it's not okay to continue to eat alone.
Ye Yuan suddenly stuffed the chicken into Qiu'er's mouth, who looked expectant, and said.
"You'll know if you taste it yourself."
Qiu'er looked at Ye Yuan a little stupidly, and watched him pick up another piece of chicken.
However, the smell of meat in her mouth woke her up, and her little mouth suddenly chewed uncontrollably quickly.
Fragrant, so fragrant!
It's delicious, it's delicious!
Then, she saw that the eldest brother gave everyone a piece, and even the mother who never wanted it, and the eldest sister were shoehorned into a piece.
At this time, the whole family was smiling, and it was a happy smile that had never been seen before.
At this moment, the small courtyard was extremely happy and lively, and it lasted until I fell asleep, and I could feel the satisfaction of eating a full stomach, and there was an indescribable joy in my heart.
Following.
Ye Yuan didn't let the eldest sister Ye Tingting provide a wake-up call, and got up by herself.
No way, her wake-up service is not gentle, if she is in a bad mood, she will directly pull her ears and force it to start.
Since being treated like this for the first time in bed, Ye Yuan has developed a "good" habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
Of course, for this... The original body thought more than once that he was going to marry his eldest sister, so that no one would care about him.
In addition, she is eighteen years old, and she is already an old girl in this era, and if she doesn't marry, I'm afraid she won't be able to marry again.
It's just that after Ye Yuan came, he didn't have this sense of urgency to buy.
After all, if the Ye family is really doing well, let alone getting married, there is no problem in recruiting outsiders.
Moreover, at the age of eighteen in the afterlife, he has just come of age.
As soon as he left the door, Ye Yuan saw the oil lamp lit in the kitchen.
Because of poverty, the Ye family rarely lights up at night, and they all work at sunrise and rest every day.
But today...
Ye Yuan walked into the kitchen and saw a thin girl making cakes, and there was a vague aroma in the air.
"It's... Hot chicken?!"
Hearing the movement, Ye Tingting turned around, although she had a straight face, she couldn't help but be concerned in her tone.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Ye Yuan held the stick in his right hand and said.
"Practice your swordsmanship!"
Knife technique?
Ye Tingting looked puzzled.
"Huh?!
」
Ye Yuan explained with a smile.
"Don't you have a basic sword technique at home?"
Recalling the past, she had never seen her brother practice, so she couldn't help but ask.
"You understand?"
Ye Yuan said very confidently.
"This is the simplest martial art, very easy."
Ye Tingting wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end she didn't express her opinion, hitting Ye Yuan's self-confidence, just said.
"Let's go wash up, and we'll be ready to eat later."
"Okay."
Moments later,
Ye Yuan, who had practiced the basic knife technique, had a slight layer of sweat on his body, and appeared in the kitchen after wiping it off.
Eat alone, in the kitchen, you don't have to go through the hassle of serving it back and forth.
On the stovetop, a bowl of chicken, two large pieces of pancake, and a plate of pickles.
"Eat, you're going to the yamen today, and you have to be full."
That's right.
When you go to work, you can't go hungry and rest.
In less than five minutes, Ye Yuan swept away all the food on the stove.
Well, I barely ate a full seven.
Then, Ye Tingting began to clean up the mess.
Ye Yuan hesitated for a moment before he said.
"In the future, prepare a little more for each meal, so that the family can be fed."
Ye Tingting's body paused slightly, and just wanted to educate him to save, so she listened to Ye Yuan continue.
"After all, I can already make money."
Yes, my younger brother is going to catch fast in no time, and he has grown up.
Ye Tingting really realized this and said.
"Let's take a look before we talk!"
Seeing this, Ye Yuan didn't persuade him more, thinking that it was better to speak with facts, and when he made money, everything would naturally be fine.
The morning light is faint and the weather is slightly cool, which is the best time of summer, suitable for a good night's sleep.
It's just that for ordinary people, it's the best time to get up and work.
The streets and alleys of the capital were suddenly filled with smoke and birds, and the white mist rose.
"Bang bang bang... Xiaoyuan..."
Ye Yuan heard the identity of the person who came, and responded enthusiastically.
"Here it is, Uncle Qiu."
"Sister, I'm going to the Yamen!"
Ye Tingting nodded, and had the heart to give a few more orders, but she still held back and didn't speak.
Out of the kitchen, Ye Yuan saw Ye Mu, and she said with a worried face.
"Son, stay safe, don't be reckless!"
"I know."
With that, Ye Yuan quickly opened the courtyard door.
Qiu Haining smiled at Ye Mu and Ye Tingting, did not go in, and then took Ye Yuan in the direction of the Yamen.
At the same time, along the way, he did not forget to teach Ye Yuan earnestly.
"Xiaoyuan, when you enter the Yamen, you have to remember that you encounter well-dressed beasts... That is, if you are wearing an official uniform, don't talk too much!"
"Well, I see, Uncle Qiu."
"Also, if I'm not with you, you have to be vigilant, and if someone asks you to do something beyond your ability, don't agree..."
In this way, there were continuous dry goods along the way, so that Ye Yuan really understood the survival rules of the bottom of the yamen.
At the end of the day, it's just one word... Careless!
Don't come out of the crowd in order to live a long time.
In addition, the arrest is not an official, but only a "subordinate" hired by the government, which belongs to the lowly status, and even the three generations of his descendants are not allowed to take the imperial examination.
Even if you take off this clothes, it will still be the same.
Because of Ye's father's identity, although the original body had learned a little writing, he did not continue to study, and so did Ye Wen.
In this way, it doesn't seem like a good job.
In fact, after all, the fast catch is backed by the government and supported by the imperial court, and the people at the bottom are still very willing to be fast catchers.
As for the salary, although it is only about ten taels of silver per year, there are other gray incomes, such as dot fees and protection fees.
It's just that due to the special location of Shuntian Mansion, there are too many people in the capital who can't afford to offend, and the extra income of catching fast will not be too much.
Still, feeding a family is not a problem.
