Chapter Thirty-Four: In a Blink of an Eye
The fat and plump elbow meat is wrapped in freshly baked oil cakes, and in order to prevent it from being greasy, some chopped pepper sauce made from green peppers and garlic is also added, which makes people appetizing just by looking at it.
Chen Mo took a bite, and the slightly soupy elbow meat oozed juice and slowly flowed onto his hand, making his fingers slightly sticky.
It is still good to have a home, Chen Mo is resting today, he doesn't have to spend money to go to a small restaurant, buy some meat and go home for Zhao Yu to help cook, and the money spent is undoubtedly much less than before.
Before, he had to go to restaurants, and restaurants were sure to make money, but now he can eat more meat for the same money.
"You eat slowly, there's still something in the pot." Zhao Yu smiled, and brought a small pot full of braised pork ribs.
As for the pot, there are two large pieces of mutton stewed.
Chen Mo was like a whirlwind of the clouds, and quickly swept away the food on the table, and even the gnawed bones were piled up on the table into a small hill.
Zhao Yu didn't eat much, but her complexion was much better during this time, and her body was still extremely thin, but her complexion was always ruddy.
"Do you still have any money? Can you lend me some? Seeing that Chen Mo finished eating, she was bold and opened her mouth a little awkwardly.
"What, the money I gave you before was used up?" Chen Mo asked suspiciously.
"No, I want to set up a stall in this town to sell some food, my skills are okay, I should be able to earn some silver, but now I am still short of capital." She spoke her mind.
If you stay at home all the time and do nothing but eat dry food, it will inevitably be annoying.
Find something to do, even if it is hard and tiring, but after all, you have an income and can support yourself.
"How much is missing?" Chen Mo asked in a condensed voice, wiped his hands with a wet towel, and took out the purse from his arms.
He does have a lot of money in his hands now, but he doesn't have it all with him.
"One or two more should be enough." Zhao Yu reported a definite number, it seems that she had carefully considered this matter before, not on the spur of the moment.
"Okay." Chen Mo counted out one or two and a half coins of silver and handed it to her.
"A small business also needs more capital, and this money is my share in you." He smiled and handed over the money.
Zhao Yu's craftsmanship is really good, which Chen Mo quite recognizes. Not to mention that it is better than those big restaurants in the city, but the taste is indeed much better than many small restaurants in the town.
If she goes to sell some food, even if she doesn't make a lot of money, she will definitely not lose money.
"Thank you." Zhao Yu smiled and thanked him.
She knew that Chen Mo was taking care of herself, she had to repay the money she borrowed, and she didn't have to pay it back even if she lost all her money when she bought shares in business.
Even if it is for his trust, he has to do a good job.
Chen Mo ate two meals at home, but still returned to the barracks before the curfew.
Chen Mo is now in the gang like other recruits, and he obeys orders under Mo Dao and is responsible for patrolling the battalion for security.
This is a relatively light job, because there are many people in charge of patrolling, and the time it is his turn to patrol every day is only one hour.
Therefore, he can have more time to do more training, not only to test martial arts, then to read and read military books and strategies, not only to read through, but also to be able to write, but also to make adaptations according to the situation.
As long as you can come up with a relatively reasonable way to deal with the problem, you don't need to break the problem and deduct the question like Wenju.
Otherwise, even if Chen Mo studies for another three years, he may not be able to pass this martial arts test.
Foot shooting, riding and spearmanship all need him to practice and learn slowly.
The Greedy Wolf Seven Killing Fist is also constantly improving, but even with Chen Mo's qualifications, it is not easy to break through from the third layer to the fourth layer.
According to his estimates, it will take at least two or three months.
In an instant, more than a month of time passed by.
Chen Mo galloped his horse in the barracks and school yard, constantly trying to tame the horses under him.
There were twenty or thirty horses in the stable, and he could ride them as he pleased, but this one was fierce and untamable.
At present, no one is convinced except General Sun, and he has tried to tame the horse several times, but it has always ended in failure.
General Sun put down his words, as long as anyone can tame this horse, then this horse will be given to him.
Others have also tried, but Chen Mo is the only one who continues to try.
He is not very skilled in taming horses, but he has great strength and endurance far beyond ordinary people, as long as he can finish the temperament of this horse, he can ride it sooner or later.
"Thirteenth brother!" A loud shout came from a distance, Chen Mo looked into his eyes, and saw Mo Hu beckoning to him from a distance.
At the moment, he stopped taming horses, and found an opportunity to jump off the horse.
"What's wrong, Fifth Brother?" Chen Mo walked up to him and asked with a smile.
"I went to the town to meet my brother and sister, and said that now that the weather is warm, I made you two thin clothes and asked me to send them to you." Mo Hu threw over a package.
Inside are two new cotton robes, and as soon as you look at the cutting threads, you can see that the person who made the clothes has put a lot of thought into it.
Chen Mo was slightly surprised, these two cotton robes are not cheap, not to mention five or six dollars of silver.
However, he still had an indifferent look on his face, after all, it was not a big deal for his wife to make clothes for himself.
"I said that the boy is really lucky, to marry such a good daughter-in-law." He said this with a slight envy in his tone.
Chen Mo is his thirteenth brother, but he has married a wife, and he is still a single!
"You go back and ask your father-in-law for leave, and go back to your hometown, or you can ask your father-in-law to help you find one in Xingyuan Mansion." Chen Mo smiled and gave him an idea.
With Mo Hu's identity, it is definitely not difficult to marry a wife, not to mention marrying a daughter of a family, it is definitely not difficult to marry a daughter of an ordinary rich family.
"Let's talk about it when I get in." Mo Hu showed a rather confident smile, he was going to take the exam this year, obviously he felt that he had a high probability of being admitted.
The girl you can find by then is completely different from now.
"Fifth brother, thirteenth brother, the general has something to do with you, let you go and see him quickly." A soldier was hurrying to report.
Chen Mo was the thirteenth son of General Sun, and the other recruits called him the thirteenth brother as if they were Mo Hu.
"What's wrong?" Mo Hu hurriedly asked, and the herald shook his head, not knowing anything about it.
"Let's go see my father-in-law first." Chen Mo pulled him and left.
If there is nothing on weekdays, the father-in-law will not suddenly want to see them, but today I think something has happened, and it may be a more urgent matter.
The two rushed to the study together, only to find that in addition to the two of them, Mo Dao and Zhao Yuncheng, as well as General Sun's two nephews, were also here.
Chen Mo whispered hello to a few of them, and several of them responded with a slight bow, but they didn't say much.
"You fled from Qingzhou, did you pass through here?"
Sun Shouren beckoned to Chen Mo, and a map was placed in front of him, and a small area of it had been marked.
"I did escape from this place, what's wrong father, is something happening here?" Chen Mo glanced at the map and said.
He really didn't know where he fled from at the time, but he had Aoki Prefecture on the map and the town where he had eaten hot noodle soup as a mark, and combined with the direction he had fled from.
He must have fled from this area, or he wouldn't have been able to reach the town.
