Chapter Twenty-Six: I Am the Same as You

Zhao Yuanling could only stare at the green wild vegetables in the bowl and watch her feast.

"It shouldn't matter if you take a bite." The armadillo gobbled it up, not forgetting to look up at her.

"I don't want to eat it." Her mouth was like that, but her eyes were staring at the other plate.

After a moment, Zhao Yuanling swallowed his saliva and asked tentatively, "Is it really okay to take a bite?" ”

"It probably doesn't matter, but you can only eat a small piece."

This may be aiding the abuse, but Zhao Yuanling still couldn't restrain himself and picked up the chopsticks excitedly. The vines given by Zhang Qingsheng still have some effect, although she didn't find the spirit, but since she soaked the vines in water and drank them, her body seemed to be injected with a warm current, and the whole person was in good spirits.

She picked up something that looked like meat and didn't look like meat and was about to put it in her mouth, but the armadillo frowned and stopped it.

"What are you eating this for? This is that the offal is not delicious, so if you want to eat it, you have to eat sliced meat. ”

"Offal!?"

"yes, the one you hold with your chopsticks is still pig intestines, where is the real meat delicious in those things."

Zhao Yuanling's face changed greatly, and he didn't grasp the chopsticks steadily.

Seeing a large pot of offal in the pot, there are not only pig intestines in it, maybe there are pig ears, pig hearts, pig kidneys and the like. When I think of this, my stomach feels like a river and a sea, and I can't help but want to vomit.

I finally knew why Mo Bai didn't let me eat it.

This filth is placed in the palace, and it is for the livestock.

Mo Bai lowered his eyes, picked up the chopsticks and took half of them, these pig offal were chewed in his mouth with relish, and he didn't see the slightest discomfort.

The armadillo, who was tired of eating meat, also used chopsticks to pick up a few pieces of pig offal.

She smacked, "This is called pig water, and the taste is a little worse than meat, but it's okay." ”

The armadillo looked at her: "If you want to taste it, you can try it." ”

"Good ......" Zhao Yuanling sandwiched the meat in the bowl and ate the rice blankly, feeling that the whole bowl of rice was stained with filth.

Mo Bai silently put down the dishes and chopsticks, got up and said, "I'm full." ”

The armadillo was also full at this time, and when she saw that Zhao Yuanling had eaten all the rice, only the piece of pig intestine that she had just clipped, she asked, "Don't you eat it?" ”

"I can't eat it." Zhao Yuanling really couldn't overcome the obstacles in his heart and put down his chopsticks.

The armadillo has been hungry for so many years, and he feels very ashamed of wasting food, and when he sees this, he can't help but horn again: "Look at you, you just haven't eaten it, don't look at it and it sounds terrible, you only know the fragrance when you eat it, some royal nobles dislike it and say it is dirty, in my opinion, anyway, when you eat it, it's not all a piece of, what's so noble......"

Zhao Yuanling covered his ears: ...... Thank you.

"What's more, you're not a real princess, and you won't get your mouth dirty if you taste it."

The sound stopped abruptly, and the air was quiet for a moment.

Zhao Yuanling lowered his eyes, looking at the steaming pig on the plate, his eyes were blank and he didn't know what he was thinking, and then he gently pulled the corners of his mouth and let out a low sneer.

She stretched out her chopsticks to clip them, but was stopped by Mo Bai.

Mo Bai put the rest of the plate of pig water in front of him and ate it himself.

"Let me clip a piece." Zhao Yuanling stretched out his chopsticks, but Mo Bai still didn't move.

She looked up and saw Mo Bai looking at her quietly, with an indescribable stubbornness in her eyes.

Zhao Yuanling looked at him for a while, pulled the corners of his stiff mouth and chuckled: "I see that you eat so deliciously, that is, I want to try it." ”

Mo Bai didn't speak, he wiped his mouth, his eyes lowered and he couldn't see the emotions in his eyes clearly.

"If you don't want to eat, eat something else."

Zhao Yuanling only saw his frowning brows and long inky hair, his face was slightly pale, his black placket was loosely open, and his neck was angular and inexplicably sickly beautiful.

"The princess doesn't have to force herself like that."

Zhao Yuanling's fingers moved slightly, and the corners of his mouth broke the heavy atmosphere with a smile, "I just want to try, you also know that I have been hungry for a long time." ”

"No, I don't."

There was a coldness in his voice, and Gu Jingwubo's eyes carried a wisp of something that Zhao Yuanling couldn't understand.

In the palace, she is the master, and he is the subordinate.

Almost whatever Zhao Yuanling says, he will do what she says.

took her to the tree to dig out birds' eggs, went down to the river to catch fish, and even took her out of the palace without telling the maid.

However, here, he still treats himself like a master, but his eyes are sharper, a pair of eyes are like tall peaks, clear and proud, and when he looks at her, there is an irresistible edge.

Zhao Yuanling's eyes moved away lightly, she knew why he was so stubborn, and an indescribable feeling came to her heart irrepressibly.

"I want to eat." Her voice was firm and crisp, with an irresistible superior's tone.

"I'm the same as you."

It was as if something had been thrown into the lake and caused a ripple, and after a moment it was calm again.

Looking at that strange and familiar face, Mo Bai's clenched fist gradually loosened, and his tight jaw also relaxed.

Zhao Yuanling tasted it for the first time, and the touch was wonderful.

This food looks and sounds shabby and hard to swallow, but it has an indescribable feeling when you eat it.

The mouth is soft, firm and chewy, and the taste is still textured, which is completely different from the feeling of eating meat. In her eyes, it is even more delicious than a simple slice of meat.

At the time of the unitary time, there was only a glow left in the sky, like a cloud burned by fire, leaving only a touch of red.

The air in the countryside began to smell of familiar and reassuring cooking smoke again.

The armadillo jumped up to the branch, and the glow of the sky reflected in her eyes, sincere and bright.

"Now that we're fed and drunk, what are we going to do next?"

Zhao Yuanling closed her eyes and felt the slight fluctuation of the wind, at this moment, she felt lighter than she had ever been, and everything was left behind.

The whole person is like being dragged by the wind, light and fluttering, without any weight.

I slowly opened my eyes and returned to reality.

They had gone to see the bulletin board, but for some reason the bulletin board, which had been pasted with rice paper, had now been removed.

The people in the government only said that a new imperial decree had been issued, and I heard that there was a demon about it.

However, if they wanted to inquire more, they had to go to the Imperial City.

Not to mention.

She lowered her eyes to look at her hands, and the rough skin that she hated when she touched it at the beginning seemed to have faded a layer of skin, revealing the smooth and white tenderness inside.

Her hand caressed her upper cheeks, which was also smooth and soft to the touch, not only her skin, but also her facial features seemed to be changing, becoming more and more like herself.

This place cannot be stayed any longer.

"How about we go to the Imperial City while looking for spirits?"

The armadillo nodded, "I agree, this town is too small, and it is not easy to find the spirit. And I'm very familiar with the Imperial City, it used to be my territory, it's big, you have to follow me so you don't get lost......"

Zhao Yuanling sneered, and even Mo Bai, who had been expressionless, couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth?

"Hey, what are you laughing at?" The armadillo looked at them in bewilderment.

Zhao Yuanling chuckled: "No, no, okay, let's follow the head snake armadillo." ”

"In that case, let's sell this house too, and leave some plates to wrap up on the road."

So the next morning, they went to the bazaar, which was the largest trading market.

In addition to some common gadgets, there are also furniture that large families don't want or some cattle, sheep and horses. When they couldn't move, they sat on the pier with a sign and waited for someone to ask.

Anyone who is interested, take them to see it on the spot.

They went to the market and found that there were already quite a few people selling their houses.

"It seems that it will take a little time to sell the house." Then Zhao Yuanling didn't want to continue waiting in the same place, so he found a lady.

"Do you know where to hire people here?"

The eldest lady asked very enthusiastically: "Hire someone?" What is the girl going to hire someone to do? ”

"That's right, I have a house in the south, and now we're leaving here so I want to sell it, so I want to find someone to help take care of it first."

"Hey, you've found the right person, I happen to have a girl who wants to find a job, look at her!" The eldest lady pulled a young woman with her hair coiled from behind.

The young woman smiled at them with a look of shame.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, it's the first time I've done this kind of work, I'm ...... I work hard, and if you give it to me with confidence, I'm willing to take a little less! ”

Her hair was high and her pudding-clad was tattered but neat, but she seemed to be a hard-working and capable person.

"What do you think of this? I'll set a deadline for you, if you can make a deal in a month, I'll give you twenty taels of silver for your hard work, if it's within six months, reduce it to ten taels of silver, and if it hasn't been done for more than half a year, then five taels of silver. ”

Hearing the twenty taels of silver, the young woman's eyes lit up instantly.

The house is not easy to sell, and it is common for it not to be sold for a year and a half.

On weekdays, even if those mothers-in-law help the master sell the house, it is only five to two taels of silver.

Within a month...... Time was indeed a bit rushed, but if it was sold, it would be twenty taels of silver!

Twenty taels of silver, her good girl can buy two sets of new clothes for the baby. Oh no, twenty sets will do!

"Leave it to me, girl, I'll definitely help you sell it as soon as possible!"

Seeing that she was so motivated, Zhao Yuanling directly took someone to see the house, and by the way, he also set the price.

The armadillo couldn't help but sigh, "You are really smart, but if she sells it in a month, it will be twenty taels of silver." ”

"What about twenty taels? It's better than what you can't take away, and you can only get if you give up. "This is what Taifu taught her.

"By the way, you post this."

Zhao Yuanling handed a piece of paper to the armadillo, and two big words were written on the paper: for sale.

"That way, there's a better chance that people will be able to see it."

Zhao Yuanling went back to the house to pack up his things and was ready to leave at any time.

In the past, you had to carry two large carriages of clothes and jewelry, but now, just two bags can hold all your belongings.

At this moment, there was another knock at the door, not only loud, but also very urgent.
