Chapter 320: Actually, It's Because I'm Poor!
"Who said they hadn't tasted the eldest prince's roasted ......?"
The originally lively scene was suddenly silent, only the firelight jumped, and occasionally a crackle sounded.
It took a while for someone to come back to their senses.
"What about the fish?"
"Eat it!"
"The fish that the eldest prince grilled with his own hands, you can actually eat it?"
"What are you talking about! The fish grilled by the eldest prince is the best delicacy in the world!"
"I'm not saying that the fish grilled by the eldest prince is not tasty! I'm asking you, how do you get out of your mouth? I'm going to change it, I won't eat it, I'm going to offer the fish!"
"This ......"
The Qiu family was already stupid on the sidelines, and the eldest son and young lady of the Xie family personally fed them? More than once?
What kind of bamboo tube rice and flower chicken, although the name is a bit weird, but it sounds inexplicably thinking it will be delicious, what's going on?
Even Qiu Lian, the second girl of the Qiu family, who had been frightened, couldn't help but raise her head and look at the beautiful figure who walked to them at some point, is this gentle young lady really so good?
As soon as Qi Lele walked in, he couldn't help but feel amused when he heard their conversation: "What are you doing? Feed the cats and the mice?"
"Little, young lady!"
The people who were originally bent on making a fire instantly stood up straight, looking annoyed that they had said the wrong thing and were caught at the scene.
It's all because there are too many people coming and going, and it's okay to hang around, so they don't even notice that it's the young lady who comes!
It took a while for someone to boldly ask, "What do you command?" We'll do it right away!"
Qi Lele waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm not looking for you."
As she spoke, she looked at the Qiu family and asked with a smile, "I want to make some dumplings tonight, but I can't do it alone, any of you can pinch the dumplings, can you do me a favor?"
Qiu Lian stood up almost subconsciously, and her voice was a little timid: "I will! I'll help you."
At this moment, even Qiu Feng was a little surprised.
Since that incident, Qiu Lian has hardly spoken in front of outsiders, and she won't even raise her head. In the past few days at the Xie family, she has been crowded among her family, bowing her head and working in a muffled voice.
At this time, he took the initiative to stand up and talk to the young lady of the Xie family in front of so many people, how could everyone not be shocked?
Seeing her, Qi Lele was also a little surprised, but quickly laughed: "Okay! I'm sorry for you."
Qiu Lian's courage had run out, and she only dared to lower her head and shake it at this time.
Qiu Shi's daughter-in-law, Lu Shi, came back to her senses, stood up in a hurry, and couldn't say anything: "I, I will also be a little, young lady, look, do you think I can do it?"
Unexpectedly, Qiu Lian suddenly opened her mouth again: "Mother, she didn't do well, I did well!"
Qi Lele saw her embarrassment, and also heard the meaning of her words, thought about it, and said to Qiu Shi's daughter-in-law: "It's not difficult to make dumplings, it's enough to help me alone, my aunt is tired for a day, let's rest for a while."
Xu is Qi Lele's attitude and tone were too gentle, and the smile on his face was also very friendly, and the heart that Lu Shi had originally carried relaxed slightly, and he couldn't say anything to refuse.
Qiu Shi couldn't help but look at Qiu Feng, with a little pleading in his eyes.
Qiu Feng shook his head at him, signaling him not to panic.
Seeing this, Qi Lele said, "At most, I will be able to send people back to you before dinner."
Qiu Feng smiled: "Young lady is polite, Lian'er can help you, it is her blessing."
Qi Lele smiled and led Qiu Lian to the kitchen.
Qiu Lian followed behind her, lowered her head, tightened her hands, her heart beat like thunder, but she didn't regret it.
Although she was frightened and suffered, she was not scared stupid.
She knew that her family had completely broken with the Li family for her sake and embarked on the road of no return; also knew that if the Xie family refused to take them in, they didn't even know where to go, let alone if they could continue to escape the Li family's pursuit.
Her thoughts
Sensitive and delicate, in the past few days, I can clearly feel that the attitude of the family towards the Xie family is changing day by day.
Compared to the Li family's place of eating people, the Xie family is indeed much better! Even when they are working, everyone is very proactive, and they are willing to share and will not hide their secrets, which is absolutely impossible in the Li family!
She wants to stay, stay in the Xie family, and even more want to help her family stay together, the young lady in front of her should be able to call the shots, right?
Just thinking about it, the kitchen has arrived.
Qi Lele separated the two people who were originally working inside, and turned his head to look at Qiu Lian: "Do you have something to say to me?"
Qiu Lian was startled, and her fingers tightened.
Qi Lele looked at her fingers that had been strangled white, and his tone became softer: "You and I are both women, you can say anything directly."
Qiu Lian suddenly knelt down straight, and said, "Young lady, the reason why my grandfather took us away from the Li family was not ingrateful, nor did he deliberately betray the Li family, they were all for me!"
After speaking, she told her what the Li family had done to her.
Qi Lele only heard half of it, and only felt angry, then the Li family didn't treat her as a human being at all! clearly wanted to use her to suppress the enemy and force the enemy to sell himself to them.
Hearing Qiu Lian say that she was hanging on a tree, the beast of the Li family also tortured and killed two cats in front of her, and then walked away.
No one knows how scared and desperate Qiu Lian was at that time, you know, it was a barren mountain! There are often jackals, tigers and leopards!
If the Qiu family notices it a little later, what awaits them is probably Qiu Lian's mutilated corpse!
Qi Lele couldn't help but leaned over and hugged her, wiping away the tears on her face: "It's all over, don't mention it." If you do not die in great calamity, you will be blessed."
Qiu Lian choked up and said, "I don't say this to win your sympathy, I just want to tell you that we didn't betray the Li family, it's the Li family that is too terrible, if we don't leave, I'm afraid we won't be able to live!"
The girl in front of her kept emphasizing that they did not betray the Li family, Qi Lele was a little puzzled: "I don't think you betrayed the Li family, and no one thinks so, you don't have to worry."
"Can we stay, then? Our family is really good at making glass! It's very good!"
It turned out to be for this.
Qi Lele asked, "Do you like it here?"
Qiu Lian nodded: "My grandfather, my father, my mother, and my uncle, they all like it very much!"
"Then stay."
Qiu Lian was stunned.
Qi Lele said softly, "Since you like it here, then stay with peace of mind and follow the big guys to do things together."
"Don't you want us to make glass?"
"No, I'm trying to do something else, but I'm not in a hurry right now, I'll talk about it later."
Qiu Lian finally asked what was in her heart: "Isn't it because you can't trust us?"
Qi Lele laughed, "Of course not, it's actually because I'm poor."
