RUMOR HAS IT THAT I'M PREGNANT WITH HIS HIGHNESS' CHILD - Chapter 641
Chapter 641 Peerless Delicacy
Yu Niaoyou: “Ask.”
Shen Xu looked at the two girls, coughed twice: “Can I take a step to talk?”
Yu Youyou straightened the movements of Li Hongye and Li Xing’er, and asked them to maintain their movements, and then said to Shen Xu.
“Go over there and talk.”
The two walked under a big tree next to the school grounds.
Shen Xu scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks, hesitating, as if he wanted to say something but didn’t know how to say it.
Seeing him in such a difficult situation, Yu Niao couldn’t help but get serious.
Does he really have any important events?
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Shen Xu ask dryly.
“Can you farm the land?”
Yu Niao was stunned immediately.
“What did you say?”
Anyway, the words had already been spoken, so Shen Xu decided to go all out, and said calmly.
“It’s just farming. Didn’t you grow up in the countryside since you were a child? You must know how to farm.”
Yu Niaoyou was speechless: “Even if I grew up in the countryside, it doesn’t necessarily mean that I know how to farm.”
“If you don’t farm the land, what do you eat?”
Yu Niaoyou was defeated by his young master’s thinking.
She patiently explained: “My family is fairly well-off in Bashu, and the land in my family is rented out for others to grow. Besides, my family also has business besides the land. My stepfather is also a master of calligraphy. Even if he has nothing, he can support a large family just by selling calligraphy and paintings.”
Shen Xu understood, it turns out that the rural people are not as poor and poor as he imagined.
He looked disappointed: “So you don’t know how to farm.”
Yu Niaoyou: “Although I haven’t personally farmed the fields, I have gone to the fields with my parents and seen how farmers farm.”
Shen Xu’s eyes lit up all of a sudden: “Then can you teach me how to farm?”
Yu Niaoyou thought she had heard wrong, so she raised her hand and rubbed her ears.
“Do you want to learn farming?”
Shen Xu felt a little embarrassed: “Yes.”
Yu Niaoyou was puzzled: “Why?”
Although they are living a hard life now, Shen Xu, as the son of the royal family, has been well-clothed and well-fed since he was a child. The word “farming” should not exist in his life dictionary.
Shen Xu hesitantly said: “I, I just want to learn, you teach me.”
Yu Niao curled her arms around her chest and said calmly, “If you don’t tell me the reason, I won’t teach you.”
Shen Xu had no choice but to tell the truth.
“It was Tang Guixi who asked me to farm, but I don’t know how to do it, so I’ll ask you.”
Yu Niao looked him up and down, her tone full of suspicion.
“Why do you listen to Gui Xi like this? Tell me the truth, do you have evil intentions towards Gui Xi?”
Shen Xu denied it: “It’s okay! It’s my father who said Tang Guixi’s words are reasonable, let me listen to her more.”
Yu Niaoyou was dubious: “It’s really that simple?”
Shen Xu asked: “Otherwise? Don’t think about it, I just treat Tang Guixi as a younger sister!”
Seeing that he refused to admit it, Yu Niao could not press him any further.
She continued the previous topic.
“Although I have seen other people farming, I have never actually operated it myself, so I can only talk about it on paper. If you really want to learn how to farm, you can ask them for advice.”
After she finished speaking, she raised her chin towards the elders and aunts in the distance.
Shen Xu took advantage of the situation to look over, and saw those old men and women sitting together weaving straw sandals.
They are all ordinary people who came to take refuge. Because they are too old to do heavy work, they can only do some work such as weaving straw sandals and sewing clothes on weekdays.
If it was changed to before, Shen Xu would definitely not be embarrassed to ask common people for advice.
But now that times have changed, he has no capital to put on airs, so he can only bite the bullet and walk towards those old men and women.
Seeing this, Yu Niao could not help but smile.
She returned to the school grounds and continued to teach Li Hongye and Li Xinger how to archery.
They practiced for a whole day, and after returning home, they felt that their arms were very sore.
Even she is like this, presumably Li Hongye and Li Xinger must be more serious.
Yu Youyou thought that they should have a day off the next day, but when she arrived at the school grounds, she found that Li Hongye and Li Xing’er had been waiting here for a long time.
Besides the two of them, there were more than a dozen young girls.
After Li Hongye and Li Xinger went back yesterday, they told other people about learning archery from the princess of the county, which made other girls eager to try.
So they all came today, wanting to learn archery together.
They don’t want to practice well, at least they can have the ability to survive in this troubled world.
For Yu Niaoyou, driving a sheep is driving, and driving a group of sheep is also driving.
So she agreed without much hesitation.
One day passed quickly.
In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Juan and Tang Guixi came back with a mighty army from the Eastern Expedition.
They won a complete victory in this raid. They not only destroyed the enemy camp, but also snatched all the food and grass in the enemy camp.
The morale of the whole army was greatly boosted, and the leaders of the army got busy after a long time, kneading dough one by one with great energy.
After a while, the aroma of steamed buns permeated the camp.
The soldiers breathed in hard one by one, almost drooling from greed.
During this period of time, they eat wild fruits and vegetables every day and occasionally add some game, and they haven’t eaten a serious meal for many days.
Today they finally had a good time!
When the white flour steamed buns were brought out, the soldiers were all moved to tears.
Even the father and son King Min and Shen Xu are no exception.
They took a bite of the white and soft steamed buns, and felt that they were so happy that they were about to float up.
In the past, they would not even take a second look at this kind of dry steamed buns.
But now they really think that white flour steamed buns are the best food in the world!
It can be called a peerless delicacy!
Then Tang Guixi waved his hand again, and sent a lot of food to the people living in the camp, so that they could also feast on their food.
Today’s camp is like a New Year’s Eve, everyone’s face is beaming.
The haze that had weighed on everyone’s hearts for the past few days also dissipated a lot.
After eating and drinking, the soldiers took a good night’s sleep.
Waiting for everyone to recharge their spirits, Xiao Juan and Tang Guixi set off with troops again.
This time they split into two groups, but the goal was the same place—
Xiajia Village.
This is the method provided by Yu Niao, start with Xiajia Village first, and capture all the villages in that area. Since it was only a small village, the number of soldiers sent by Chen Guo to guard it must not be many, and the success rate of the Eastern Expeditionary Army to capture them would naturally be much higher.
After taking back all the villages in that area, they moved to the nearest Hengcheng.
In this way, step by step, they will be able to take back the entire Liaodong County sooner or later.
Knowing that the Eastern Expeditionary Army was going to take back Xiajia Village, all the men in Xiajia Village came out and volunteered to be the vanguard.
So Xia Hai became the captain of this vanguard.
Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, they traveled all the way through the mountains and forests and opened up a new route. The Eastern Expeditionary Army approached Xiajia Village along this route without anyone noticing.
