Chapter 9 It's not delicious, don't want money

"Yes! The little ones understand, and the little ones go! ”

The servant hurriedly answered, and immediately set out to catch the mouse.

Wang Lezi was short-tempered and ruthless, and his subordinates were afraid of upsetting him.

No one dared to delay a little, and soon, more than a dozen big rats were caught!

"Master, what to do with so many rats?" The servant asked hurriedly.

"Roasted!" Wang Lezi said.

"Roast rats?" Dogleg was taken aback.

looked at the big push mouse that was screaming, and suddenly looked embarrassed: "Master, chicken, duck, goose, fish, pig, beef and mutton have been roasted, but this mouse is ......"

"Roast it if you want to! Where is all this nonsense! ”

Wang Lezi's face darkened, and he scolded as soon as he opened his mouth.

The servant did not dare to say a word more, but he promised to go down immediately.

After a while, the smell of barbecue came from the kitchen.

"It smells good!" Wang Lezi nodded, lying comfortably on the recliner, full of anticipation for the delicious roast rat meat.

"Master, the rat meat is roasted!"

Soon, the servant walked in with a large plate of rat meat.

"Okay?" Wang Lezi looked down, and the aroma of barbecue came to his face.

If you look closely, the color of the roasted meat is golden and it looks very good!

Immediately the appetite was opened, and he picked up a large string of rat meat and opened his mouth to gnaw on it!

After a bite and a few bites, Wang Lezi immediately frowned, and his face changed, "What the does this smell like!" Phew! ”

"It's dry and astringent, eating firewood!"

"Didn't you bake it with care? Deliberately fool Lao Tzu! ”

The servant was startled, and hurriedly said: "Master, the little ones have told the kitchen a thousand times, so that they must use their greatest skills to pass the test!" The little ones have been staring at the kitchen, and they are really attentive! ”

"Why does that taste so bad!" Wang Lezi shouted angrily and asked, "It's so far from what that kid from the Xiao family said!" ”

The servant rolled his eyes, and immediately said, "Master, Xiao Feng's kid must have deliberately lied to you!" ”

"He lied to me?" Wang Lezi asked suspiciously.

"Yes, sir." The dog leg said with a serious face: "You think, if this mouse is really delicious, why has no one eaten it seriously since ancient times?" Who will eat but those poor ghosts who are dying of starvation? ”

Wang Lezi nodded, then his face tightened, he raised his hand and slapped the table fiercely, and scolded: "Damn, Xiao Feng, that loser dares to lie to me!" Have fun with Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu will never spare him! ”

"Master, it's not easy to clean him up?"

The servants hurriedly came up and accompanied the smiling face: "It's a competition in a few days, and the loser will definitely lose!" When the time comes, you will have to be a slave to you, master! How do you clean him up, it's not your word, master? ”

"When that day comes, Lao Tzu will have to let him eat roast rat meat at once!"

Wang Lezi's face was fierce: "Let that loser taste the taste of this stinky rat meat!" ”

……

Early the next morning.

Xiao family.

Seeing that Lin Shuiyao was still asleep in his arms, Xiao Feng carefully pulled out his arm.

Gently tucked the quilt for her, and then lightly went down to the kang.

Outside the courtyard, Niu Daquan, Niu Meng, and Niu Nan, two brothers, were already waiting at the door with a tattered donkey cart.

"Uncle Daquan!" Xiao Feng hurriedly greeted him, carefully took care of the donkey cart, and looked surprised: "So fast, I got the donkey cart!" Uncle Daquan, you really have a way! ”

"I borrowed a broken donkey cart!"

Niu Daquan was happy in his heart, but he still said modestly: "Xiao Feng, it's good if you don't dislike it." ”

"Such a good donkey cart!" Xiao Feng hurriedly said: "That is, Uncle Daquan, you are bold, have many friends, and have good popularity, so you can borrow it." If it were me, I wouldn't be able to borrow it! ”

"Xiao Feng, you're getting better and better at talking!"

Niu Daquan was smiling at what Xiao Feng said in a few words!

The four of them loaded the bamboo basket with the bamboo rat on the car.

I was ready to go.

"Husband, be careful on the road."

Lin Shuiyao walked out of the house at some point and came to a few people, "There are still ...... This is my dry food and water for you, and you can eat it when you are hungry on the way......"

Lin Shuiyao handed over the bamboo basket and opened the cover, which contained hot corn rice balls and a bamboo tube filled with water.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.

Lin Shuiyao earnestly instructed: "After selling something, hurry home, don't wait too late, discredit and hurry!" ”

Talk endlessly.

Xiao Feng listened very carefully, and then nodded solemnly, "I remember, lady, guard the door, wait for me to come back!" ”

"Hmmm......"

Lin Shuiyao looked worried, looking at Xiao Feng's figure gradually moving away, tears flowed down!

It wasn't until the carriage completely disappeared from sight that she wiped her tears and returned to the small courtyard.

After cleaning up the house, Lin Shuiyao took a small hoe, quietly left the small courtyard and ran to the field on the side of the road.

She clearly remembered that her husband said that Artemisia annua could cure her grandfather's malaria!

In the past few days, her husband's various actions have not only surprised her, but also convinced that her husband is by no means an ordinary person!

What the husband said must be right!

Artemisia annua will definitely cure grandpa's malaria!

In order to treat his critically ill grandfather as soon as possible, Lin Shuiyao ignored Xiao Feng's advice, and came to the field alone and dug up the yellow artemisia grass.

……

At this time, Xiao Feng and Niu Daquan and his party had already arrived at the gate of the county seat.

The city gate was bustling with people. A few errand boys, who had set up a checkpoint there, were checking the pedestrians and vehicles entering the city one by one.

Every pedestrian must pay a few pennies to the official before entering the city before he can pass the card smoothly.

"Why, you have to pay money to enter the city?" Xiao Feng frowned.

"If you enter the city, you have to pay the city gate!" Niu Daquan sighed, "A pedestrian costs two cents, and a car costs five cents!" ”

Saying this, Niu Daquan had already taken out the prepared copper coin from his blanket: "I am ready for this money!" ”

As he spoke, the car had arrived in front of the clamp.

"What's in the car?" The official glanced at Niu Daquan and Xiao Feng, and asked coldly.

"It's just some game!" Niu Daquan smiled all over his face, picked up the copper coin and held it up.

"Not enough!" The official said coldly: "The pedestrian is a three-article." The car is a Qiwen! ”

"The little one understands!"

Niu Daquan frowned, but immediately lost his smile and took out another handful of copper coins.

"Let's go inside!"

Without checking the donkey cart, the official lazily raised his hand.

Entering the city gate, Niu Daquan couldn't help but scolded in a low voice: "Damn, the price has risen again!" In less than a year, the money at the city gate has risen three times! From pennies to pennies! You know, don't let these two boys come! ”

"I paid more than a dozen mosquitoes, how much work do I have to do to earn it back!"

"Uncle Daquan, don't worry!"

Xiao Feng has long been surprised by the government's approach.

Disappreciatively, he was relieved: "Let's buy a few more bamboo rats, and the money will be earned!" ”

"That's right!" Niu Daquan nodded.

As he spoke, he was already in the market. Arrived early, and there were still vacancies in the bazaar.

Niu Daquan picked a place and bolted the donkey cart.

"Xiao Feng, I haven't seen this bamboo rat from the county seat!"

Helping Xiao Feng get the guys ready, Niu Daquan couldn't help but worry and said, "How to sell, are you sure?" ”

"Uncle Niu, just take a look." Xiao Feng smiled confidently.

Immediately, Niu Meng and Niu Nan set up a barbecue rack and skillfully tested the bamboo rat.

Soon, the bamboo rat will be roasted golden in color and fragrant!

The rich fragrance immediately attracts many pedestrians.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by this good-looking, fragrant bamboo rat!

A well-dressed middle-aged man came closer, looking at the golden roasted bamboo rat, salivating!

"Freshly baked roasted bamboo rats!" Xiao Feng shouted loudly: "This uncle, if you want to eat it, buy one and try it!" ”

The middle-aged man hesitated: "It looks good, it smells good, I don't know how it tastes." ”

"Try it first! It's not delicious, no money! ”

As Xiao Feng spoke, he handed over the roasted bamboo rat.
