Chapter 49: Hunger Can't Die
With no food, no clothes, and no daily necessities, Xiaoxiang Pavilion was completely left out in the cold, and thanks to the steward secretly sending people to deliver food, they barely survived.
Xiaoxi carried two bowls of rice porridge with Xishui, put them on the table, and looked at the young lady sadly.
"Miss, we haven't eaten meat for a long time, and now there is not a grain of rice, and there is no vegetable, you will just drink gruel, tomorrow we don't know what to eat to satisfy our hunger." Xiaoxi looked at her master with a painful heart, she is a subordinate who can endure any hardship, but how can the young lady suffer like this, the hateful eldest lady, her heart is really vicious!
"Fishy stream, don't be sad, look at me. Ziwei turned her eyes, put down her chopsticks, got up and turned out a piece of gauze, and made a simple net copy with gauze.
"Xiaoxi, follow me!" she mysteriously took Xiaoxi's hand and came to the pool.
Xiaoxi looked at Miss suspiciously, and then looked at the net, and suddenly her eyes lit up, Miss wants to catch fish?
Ziwei stood by the pond and copied the net into the water, and there were no fish in the net.
Hmph, it must be that the pond is too shallow, and the fish are in the center of the pool.
Ziwei stepped on a stone, picked up the net and probed into the water, and copied two big carp that were jumping around.
"Miss, we can't starve to death!" the brook jumped up excitedly, Miss is so clever! There are a lot of carp in this pond!
Suddenly, the carp jumped vigorously in the net, pulling the center of gravity of Ziwei's body towards the pool.
"Miss, be careful!" Xiaoxi shouted anxiously as she watched her body fall into the pool.
Lin Xiao rushed over with a bag and grabbed Ziwei's body and led her away from the pool.
Ziwei stood firm, looked at the carp in the net in her hand, and smiled proudly.
"Haha! There are fish to eat, this is a natural fish store, when we want to eat fish, we will come and pick it up. Creek, go get a bucket, I'll fish two more. ”
"Miss......" Xiaoxi was worried in her heart, she would rather not eat fish than let Miss take risks, looking at Lin Xiao beside her, she turned around and went back to get the bucket.
"Miss, you don't want to die!" Lin Xiao complained to her worriedly.
"It doesn't matter, I'll pay attention in the future, there will be no more danger, Lin Xiao, thank you for saving me." Ziwei looked at Lin Xiao's worried look, and a trace of warmth hit her heart.
This old acquaintance of Xiao Yuwei was quite concerned about her, she just wanted to ask to understand, but her eyes were attracted by the bag in Lin Xiao's hand.
"Did you send rice?" Lin Xiao really sent rice! There is food, Ziwei is so happy that she sheds a string of tears, she has never tasted hunger, but now Ziwei is staring at the food on the ground, her eyes are like beggars, flashing with surprise.
"Miss, you have suffered, this is the rice that the manager asked me to secretly send over, I will send you back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion." Lin Xiao was surprised and delighted when she saw the food in Miss, and her heart ached, Miss was starving, and she was suffering.
It's been nine years, and his heart hasn't been at peace for a day, and now he sees Miss suffering, and he feels even more sorry for the deceased Prime Minister Mu and Mrs. Mu, and sorry for Miss Ziwei, he didn't do what Mrs. Mu asked him back then.
With just one thought, he made a mess, not only harming himself, but also harming Miss, he is ashamed!
"Miss, it's dangerous for you to fish in a net like this, don't come to fish in the future. Lin Xiao put a bag of rice in his hand on the ground, and there were already tears in his eyes.
"Hmm. With food and fish, Ziwei felt a sense of satisfaction.
"The prince has been in a bad mood recently, so I can't leave him for a moment, just now the prince was writing excerpts in the study, I just took the time to come and see you, and I will soon follow the prince into the palace to meet the emperor. ”
Lin Xiao put the rice bag in the kitchen, looked around at the unseemly kitchen, and a trace of worry rose in his heart.
"Lin Xiao, I know that the prince can't leave you for a moment, don't come again in the future, lest the prince be angry. "Annoyed the tyrannical prince, her life will be even more difficult.
