The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty - Chapter 276
Zhao Yunchu was beaten with his eyes closed, but the pain did not come. Instead, he heard the third brother screaming again and again. When he opened his eyes, he saw A-niang crying and smoking Zhao Yundi severely.
Zhao Yundi yelled with a headache. It is not that he can’t avoid it, but the princess used to beat him while cursing and beating. He has never cried so sad as he is now.
Zhao Yundi had never seen his mother like this, so he didn’t dare to hide like before. However, when he was beaten, he was still very aggrieved, “What do you do to beat me!”
The princess pinched Zhao Yundi’s ear with one hand, “You said, did you take the first brother badly, he has been cute since he was a kid, if it weren’t for you, he, how could he…”
“How wrong I am!” Zhao Yundi also cried, he was really wronged, this matter is simply too wrong. This is the first time that Zhao Yundi has regretted the thought of spending time and drink, otherwise, how could he be detained in such a black pot.
The princess cried with rain, and the servants heard the sound, but when they saw the princess beating Zhao Yundi, they didn’t dare to come forward and persuade him.
Niangniang beating Saburo is the norm, and it’s useless to persuade him.
But to everyone’s surprise, after the princess beat Zhao Yundi, she also attacked Zhao Yunchu.
There are four small lords in the Fuzhong, one sick and two ridiculous. Only Shiro can make the prince and princess happy. She was spoiled and spoiled since she was young.
I don’t know what happened, causing the princess to be so angry and crying. Some people felt that something was wrong and hurriedly invited the prince to come.
When Zhao Yuanyan came, what he saw was the princess Zhao Yunchu crying, but Zhao Yunchu silently accepted.
Zhao Yundi stood by, not knowing what to do.
Zhao Yuanyan frowned, and stepped forward to hold the hand of the princess, “I just want to go to Guizhou. You also know that he is better with Ge Yan. It’s a big deal to send some people to **** him, so that he can be at ease, so why bother?”
When the princess heard Yun Yan’s name returned, her body trembled, and she gave Zhao Yuanyan a hard look, calling him inexplicable.
Knowing the stakes, the princess suppressed her sorrow, and her confidant drove everyone out and guarded the yard.
Zhao Yuanyan looked a little strange in her heart, but he also guessed that the princess was not angry because Zhao Yunchu was going to Guizhou.
This is the case, Zhao Yuanyan never thought of what the princess would say next.
The princess wiped her tears, repeating Zhao Yunchu’s words one by one.
Zhao Yuanyan was so shocked that he almost suspected that the princess was teasing him. The relationship between Zhao Yunchu and Yun Yanhui has been rumored, but they were all treated as jokes, and no one believed it. If it were not for Zhao Yunchu not to defend himself, he would think that the princess was deceived by an illegal tabloid.
Zhao Yuanyan and the princess have always liked Yunyanhui, so they couldn’t believe it. The first sentence he said was even: “You are fooling around, is it possible that Zhufeng is also fooling around with you?!”
What Zhao Yunchu said is different from the folk bond brothers. He explained that it is a relationship like parents.
Ge Yan is early and safe, and it is difficult for Zhao Yuanyan to believe that Ge Yan will accompany Zhao Yunchu to do such ridiculous things.
Zhao Yunchu whispered: “Daddy, Aniang, we are not fooling around.”
“Isn’t it a nonsense?” The princess had calmed down and asked, “Ms. Zheng must still be kept in the dark about this matter. It’s nothing more than our family. Have you ever thought that Yan Ge’er is the only child in the family? Chu’er, Yan Ge’er He is also a person of general knowledge and has lived with his mother for many years. What does Zheng Madam say that he can defy?”
Zhao Yundi listened to the side, all secretly speechless. He felt that the fourth brother was crazy, why should he confess to his parents? It’s all right now, A-niang points to the point in every sentence.
The princess’s reason was too strong, and Zhao Yunchu was confused when he heard it.
Is it right? If Ge Yan in Guizhou came back and confessed to Ms. Zheng, would he abandon me for his mother?
The princess continued: “You are still young and there is still a chance to look back. I just beat you. Aniang was too impulsive! If you go back to the room to study, I ask your father to send the soldiers to Guizhou, how about?”
After a moment of trance, Zhao Yunchu became firm again, “Aniang, Brother Yan will not lie to me.”
The princess almost fainted. She usually thinks her son’s perseverance and solid eyes are the advantages, but now she doesn’t look pleasing to the eye.
“You really don’t see the coffin and don’t cry!” The princess sighed, “Don’t want to go out. When will you think about it, let’s talk about it!”
…
Obviously it was an ordinary day, but it was like a holiday in Lao Zhai.
Many officials gathered around the front floor of the leader’s house, drooling as they watched Yunyan cooking lamb back.
Two stoves were set up in Qianping, with a large iron pot on one side, with lamb chops stewed in it, and roast leg of lamb on the other side, exuding a charming aroma at this time.
Very sincerely speaking, no one in the whole village has thought that lamb can be roasted like this!
All of them came around spontaneously, close to this cat.
Yun Yanhui opened the lid of the iron pot on the side, and the taste of stewed lamb was also diffused, which was a different flavor from roasted lamb shanks. White radishes were also put in the pot and stewed together. At this time, the lamb and radishes were already simmered.
Yun Yan replied, “Well, the onions seem to be missing. Who else has onions?”
The leader didn’t provide him with a lot of spices at all, but it didn’t matter, he could crowdfund.
After someone translated his words, it was better to have the conditions right away, or the person who robbed a lot of things said that they had it at home, and then quickly went back to get it.
Yun Yanhui slowly sprinkled pepper on the roast leg of lamb, and the smell immediately fragrant, then he cut off a small piece of meat and tasted it. Everyone’s eyes followed the meat to his face, and when he saw him bite into the crispy and tender lamb, the grease sizzled, and they all swallowed.
“Yes, it’s done.” Yun Yan returned to drag a pottery pot provided by the masses, and sliced lamb into it, until the bones were clean and there was not a trace of meat left.
“Okay, you can eat, these are yours.” Yun Yan returned this sentence, and the officials rushed forward and grabbed them desperately.
Don’t say that the meat is free of money, just use the taste, and let them exchange the eggs at home.
The leader had already gnawed a whole leg of lamb. While eating with relish, while not too happy, the cat-man had a good time.
While everyone was grabbing the roast leg of lamb and braising the lamb, Yunyan returned to the bamboo house with the pot.
Zhou Huilin was sitting on the straw mat, holding a small bowl in his hand.
Yun Yanhui used a spoon to scoop out the braised mutton, put it into Zhou Huilin’s bowl, added a few more radishes, and said calmly, “You eat slowly.”
Zhou Huilin stuffed the mutton into his mouth. It didn’t smell bad, it was terribly fresh, and the stew was so tender. Even the plump skin of the flesh was still a bit chewy, while the mutton chops were lean and untidy meat wrapped in ribs. You can see how it tastes at a glance.
Zhou Huilin almost swallowed his own tongue together, and the hot mutton soup on his stomach was nothing.
Then he moved in a pile of clean straw from outside the door. This was what he asked his staff when he was roasting mutton. Fortunately, the leader guarded him and put a person who understood the Miao language by his side, otherwise he really didn’t know what to do.
Yun Yan called back Zhou Huilin to sit a little further, and then carefully laid out the straw. After adjusting the level, he put the straw mat on it, tried to lie down, and nodded in satisfaction.
The remaining straws were piled together, looking like a big pillow, Zhou Huilin leaned up, it was okay, the shape was well piled, and the back was held up.
Zhou Huilin used his left hand to eat. He actually felt that although he was kidnapped, he had a good time. He didn’t know how Yun Yanhui told people that he didn’t even see a penny, but that bureaucrat was actually willing to kill the sheep. They eat.
Is it because Yun Yanhui is too capable of nonsense, or is his staff too naive?
“Don’t eat too fast.” Yun Yan looked back at Zhou Huilin gorging himself and stopped him. After going out for a while, he didn’t know where he got two multi-grain cooking cakes and a small bowl, two of them, one for each, with lamb. The soup is fragrant.
The pie is not very well done, and it is a bit hard, but after being softened by the hot mutton soup, it has a unique flavor and fills the stomach.
Yun Yanhui also opened the small bowl that was left.
Zhou Huilin didn’t pay attention, thinking it was something good again, and when he looked inside, he was almost frightened, “…what is it! You raise Gu!”
There turned out to be a bowl of insects, everything, and Zhou Huilin’s scalp was tingling.
Yun Yan replied: “What kind of Gu, dead, you don’t have to eat it in the backcountry, if there are too many bugs, you will eat the bugs. I’m afraid it’s not good, so I sprinkled some pepper. It should be better…”
“Nonsense, no one eats worms!” Zhou Huilin began to wonder if Yun Yanhui was really raising Gu, and people who didn’t have to eat it in remote areas would still give him lamb and cooking cakes casually? This is what the **** is Yun Yan’s return to Gu?
“Why not, rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, regardless of the snakes, insects, mice, and ants, you can eat it. It’s crunchy…” The protein is X times that of pork, and Yun Yan replied, “The poor man next door doesn’t even have to eat insects. .”
What Yun Yan said back was that the people who were taken captive with them, including those who were originally in a group with them, were still being guarded. Even if they were tied up, for the sake of poverty and defensiveness, they only fed once a day and had to work.
When Zhou Huilin remembered it, she felt more and more happy.
Of course, eating bugs is unhappy.
Yun Yan went back to taste the bugs one by one. The main problem was that the taste was uneven, some were okay, and some were astringent. After eating a few, I gave up, and I had the right to treat it as a snack.
Zhou Huilin: “You, you really eat…Aren’t you afraid of bugs!”
“It’s all cooked, and what’s terrible. You are not afraid of living bears, you don’t eat the same when you make them.” Yun Yan replied with a reason that made Zhou Huilin dizzy but difficult to refute.
Yun Yan said back again: “When I was barbecuing outside, I saw someone came back with a pheasant. Look, I will get you to make lunch tomorrow…”
Zhou Huilin sweats profusely, this is really not an outsider.
…
On the other hand, the leaders sent to Guizhou.
This person took the token that Yun Yan returned to, and asked to see Shi Meilan, and also sent a “help letter” written by Yun Yanhui.
Shi Meilan saw that the man claimed that she had ruled Miao Min and was moved by the friendship between the two sides, hoping that she would help, but the incident was clearly done by Yun Yanhui.
Shi Meilan was very alert and calmly said: “This little bastard, I said I would go back to the mountain earlier, where did you’save’ him?”
The messenger chuckled: “In the inn in Yizhou, let’s be with his brother-in-law. I heard that they are helping you do business.” Then you can’t just ignore it, right?
Shi Meilan calculated the distance in her heart, and she naturally knew, her face sinking.
The messenger saw that her complexion was not good, and he was immediately worried that she would be rude.
Fortunately, Shi Meilan pondered for a moment and said, “Shishan is my confidant. Wait a moment and rest for a while. I order someone to prepare.”
The messenger was overjoyed, but Shi Meilan agreed so easily.
Shi Meilan said that it was “ordering people to prepare,” but in fact she coldly said: “Take all hands. Also, bring the Gu poison.”
