Chapter 1 Delivering Meals
In the northwest of Dahua, 400 miles of barren sand and sea are mixed with the clouds stained by the sun.
To the southeast of the Sand Sea, a fortified city surrounded by walls stands at the junction of gold and green, like a silent warrior in armor.
In the north of the city, the plaque hanging above the north city gate has three large characters.
Gimhae City.
Today is the beginning of March, and the rest of Dahua's prefectures and counties have already bathed in the spring color.
Only this northwest frontier badland, the south wind road is far away, and it is always late.
In the southwest of the city, is the residence of the Hong family.
Hongfu covers a vast area and is a first-class high-ranking family in Jinhai City.
But among the high gates, there are also tent households.
In the corner of Hongfu, in the dilapidated courtyard huddled, the green leaves and reds had just been sent to the branches.
It is an independent courtyard with only one entrance and a total of two and a half bungalows, the building is old, the walls are mottled, and only the ground is exceptionally clean.
At this time, in the main room facing the courtyard gate, a young man got out of bed with a little difficulty, pacing back and forth slowly.
He was dressed in plain cloth, with slender limbs, about one meter seven or five tall, and his figure was thin to the point of weakness.
"Hey, the internal injuries are not yet healed, but I can finally walk."
The young man whispered to himself, paced back and forth a few times, and finally helped the table before slowly standing still.
This person's name is Hong Fan.
The body is a man of this world, but the soul is a stranger.
In his previous life, he was an aero-engine engineer at the research institute, and he was in his early thirties, just starting to enter a management position.
Then, a sudden car accident sent him away.
Fortunately, the crossing for unknown reasons allowed him to occupy the magpie's nest and continue his life.
Unfortunately, the material civilization of this world is clearly hundreds of years behind its predecessors.
What can I do about it?
"I was in bed for ten days from the day I opened my eyes."
Hong Fan clenched his fingers into fists and crushed the wooden table with his fists.
The fist crest of this body was sharpened flat, similar to his previous life.
"It seems that this earth cannot go back......"
He sighed softly, Ben's clenched fist slowly unfolding.
A few days ago, Hong Fan was still seriously injured, and it was still difficult to be sure of the fact of crossing in a daze.
But now, the facts are ironclad, and all he can do is digest all kinds of emotions and accept them thoroughly.
Hong Fan held the table with both hands and slowly sat down on the stool.
"Hoo ......"
The soreness caused by the exertion of his muscles and the false fire in his chest made him can't help but exhale deeply.
In his mind, the fragments of the memories of the original owner of the body flashed again.
Young people with stubborn personalities and crazy demons who practice martial arts are often bullied in clan science training, but after being injured, they still have to overdraft their cultivation, and finally die suddenly due to the accumulation of injuries and insufficient supplements.
"Seventeen years old, in my previous life, I was still a sophomore in high school."
Hong Fan shook his head and sighed, shaking his body slightly, as if he had lost his energy after drinking.
Perhaps the fusion impact of the soul piercing was too great, and he did not inherit the complete memory of the original owner, but was mostly trivial intentions and emotions.
Just as the young man was sorting out his memories, a voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard.
"Sister-in-law of the Jiang family, here, why is there no meat today? My young master's injuries are not healed......"
It was a woman who spoke, with a gentle voice and a little restraint.
[This is Aunt Liu's voice. 】
Hong Fan thought in his heart.
This Aunt Liu is her mother's maid, and she is slightly younger than her deceased mother.
Over the years, Hong Fan has been able to grow up, and he has relied on Aunt Liu to take care of him.
At this time, another voice replied.
"The piece of brocade you gave can't be exchanged for much, and the meat that can be given for seven days is too much!"
It should be an elderly woman who replied, and her voice was particularly loud, as if she was afraid that no third person would listen.
"But, sister-in-law of the Jiang family, my young master can't even get out of bed, how can he just eat these vegetarian things......
Aunt Liu said, there was a pleading in her voice.
But the other party was unmoved.
"It's good to be vegetarian, the eldest lady is vegetarian every month! Besides, Brother Fan has been eating like this for more than two years, what can he do? ”
The sister-in-law of the Jiang family replied impatiently.
Aunt Liu was about to say more, but she heard a noise in the house.
There was a creak, and the wooden door was pulled open.
The two followed the sound, but it was Hong Fan who stepped out of the door with a little difficulty.
"Aunt Liu."
The young man looked at him and called out, as if he had said hello.
Aunt Liu immediately became worried.
First, the young master's illness is not yet well, how can he get up.
The second is that the young master has never been willing to negotiate face-to-face with subordinates like the Jiang family's mother-in-law in the past.
But as soon as the two looked at each other, Aunt Liu found that the young master's eyes were exceptionally clear, and his extreme anger disappeared completely.
Looking at the young man's calm eyes and face like a peaceful lake, her mind somehow calmed down.
On the other side, the mother-in-law of the Jiang family was shocked.
In her eyes, this Hong Fan was thin and weak, so sick that he didn't look like a martial artist.
But that sickly paleness, and a temperament completely different from the past, made him even more handsome than before.
Even if the mother-in-law of the Jiang family has always looked down on this "Fan Gongzi", at this moment, she has to admit that she has never seen such a handsome brother.
[In the end, he inherited the beauty of the fox, but unfortunately he gave birth to a vice-bad son. 】
The mother-in-law of the Jiang family thought in her heart.
"Young master, it's cold outside, why are you up?"
Aunt Liu hurriedly came up to help.
Hong Fan carefully looked at the middle-aged woman with her hair coiled and her face covered with weather, and naturally felt a sense of intimacy.
"Auntie, I'm out of the way."
He replied, and found that the most precious brocade turban on her head was missing, and he knew what was going on.
Hong Fan raised his head and glanced at a few plates of food on the stone table in the courtyard, as well as the Jiang family's mother-in-law standing at the table.
Disgust instinctively welled up in his heart.
The two bowls of rice add up to only three taels, and the dishes are vegetarian dishes without much oil and water, and there is no meat at all.
In my fragmentary memory, it has basically been like this for more than two years.
I'm afraid it's hard for outsiders to imagine that the young master of the Hong family's catering is so poor.
"That's all? And what about the rest? ”
Hong Fan stood on the doorstep and asked condescendingly.
The mother-in-law of the Jiang family raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and replied, "What is left?" Brother Fan, the old woman is a food passer, and I will bring whatever the kitchen gives me. ”
Hong Fan shook his head and said: "The rules of the Hong family say that the children of the clan study have four dishes for one meal, two meat and two vegetables. There are only two vegetarians here, what about the rest? ”
Although his voice was weak when he spoke, it was clear and steady, as awe-inspiring as the wind piercing through the pine.
I don't know if it's because of her appearance or demeanor, the mother-in-law of the Jiang family, who has always been muddy, suffocated for no reason, and the sharp teeth of the top servant woman couldn't be sent.
Aunt Liu was also surprised.
As we all know, Hong Fan has a dull temperament and few words, and there has never been a time when he speaks so directly and directly.
The whole clan said that the extreme yin owl resisted his handsomeness, and the concubine did not have the bearing of the concubine.
But today, it seems that this serious illness has consumed Fan Ge'er completely differently.
However, the Jiang family's mother-in-law quickly adapted to it.
A concubine who is unkind and jealous, even if he is nominally the master, where is the prestige?
"Rules are rules, but we have to see how they are implemented."
The mother-in-law of the Jiang family said sarcastically.
"It's been more than two years, and the Hong family rules that Fan Ge'er just said weren't just written today, right?"
