After finally convincing all the villagers to leave, Xiao Yueye finally breathed a sigh of relief. WWw,qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo,Com But he kept Dadong.
Dadong did not dare to approach Xiao Yueye. To be precise, if Xiao Yueye took two steps towards him, he would take three trembling steps back. This discovery made Xiao Yueye very helpless. It seems that his ruthless methods in the past have really left traces in the hearts of these people.
"What did you say about the dead person?" Xiao Yueye asked curiously after calling Dadong into the room.
Dadong did not dare to sit down, so he stood and replied: "We told everyone that they met other bandits and died. Because there were blood stains on their clothes, everyone believed it."
Xiao Yueye raised her eyebrows. This excuse was indeed much better than the previous one of freezing to death. If he said he froze to death, once spring comes, he will definitely tell the truth as soon as he sees the body.
This Dadong is not a fool.
Murong Yufeng seemed to have been thinking about something, and suddenly asked: "How come you are so poor? Is it because some officials collected taxes arbitrarily?"
Dadong showed a wry smile: "How can those high-ranking officials in our poor place be willing to come? Originally, according to previous years, the village could celebrate the New Year. But this summer there was a severe drought, and in winter there was heavy snow. We have no harvest, how can we celebrate the New Year?" "
"Does the court not care about you?"
Mentioning the imperial court, Dadong showed a sneer: "The imperial court? They only care about the rich, how can they care about us?"
After asking herself, Murong Yufeng fell into thinking again. Xiao Yueye glanced at her, frowned, and said to Dadong: "By the way, you suddenly have so much money to buy food. Others must be surprised, and they might even take advantage of you, so be careful."
"Yes. We decided to buy food in batches and use the scraps of silver you gave us. As for the gold, we will find a ticket number we know and melt it away."
Having made it clear, Xiao Yueye waved her hand and let him go out.
Dadong said before leaving: "Mrs. Master, tonight our whole village will cook wild boar in the center. The village chief said that he wants to thank you, so please go."
"Okay, I get it."
After looking at this dilapidated room, there were several holes in the roof. Xiao Yueye sighed and moved the bed to a place where snow would not leak out. After doing this, he looked at Murong Yufeng, who had been thinking about something, and sighed softly, but said nothing.
Time passed slowly like this, Xiao Yueye heated up a few bowls of water and put them on the table. His name is not Murong Yufeng. He knows that Murong Yufeng is currently thinking. Once she figures it out, it will definitely be good for her in the future.
Looking at the time, I could already hear the noise coming from not far away. Thinking about it, the whole village went to the square to cook a pot of wild boar and share it among themselves.
Xiao Yueye touched her stomach. They gave everything to others, but she didn't eat anything. Her stomach was already protesting. He thought for a while and went to Little Leopard's house to ask for something.
After hearing what Xiao Yueye needed, Little Leopard's mother showed a hint of embarrassment: "Sir, we all have pots, bowls, dry firewood, but there is only a little bit of salt for the seasoning. There is nothing else."
Xiao Yueye raised her eyebrows and then felt relieved. He smiled mockingly to himself, "How can other people have money to buy seasonings when they can't even fill their stomachs?" It’s already good to have salt.
Looking at the little bit of salt the size of a copper coin that Little Leopard's mother took out, Xiao Yueye sighed, it was almost enough, barely enough.
Little Leopard saw Xiao Yueye preparing to burn something, so he hurried over and followed behind. Xiao Yueye touched his head and said, "Little Leopard, can you help me find some dry firewood?"
"Firewood? Brother, wait a minute. I have some firewood at home. I'll help you." As soon as he finished speaking, he spread his legs and ran towards the house.
Xiao Yueye shook her head and smiled softly. He went to the open space in the yard and put down other things. Then he took a kitchen knife, carefully peeled off the skin of the rabbit, and threw it aside.
Little Leopard is small and can't hold much firewood. Behind him, his mother is coming over with a large bundle of firewood. She says a little embarrassedly: "Sir, the firewood is a little wet. I'm afraid..."
Xiao Yueye waved her hands and said, "It doesn't matter. Do you have the Huozhezi?"
"Yes, yes, yes, here."
Quickly tie up a few thick wooden sticks, Xiao Yueye sharpened a thin stick, then strung two rabbits together and placed them on the previously tied wooden sticks. In this way, a simple barbecue grill was made. alright.
After it was done, Xiao Yueye used her inner strength to force a few sticks of easily burnt firewood dry, then lit it and started burning it carefully, and kept adding more firewood. Soon, the fire became big.
Little Leopard watched Xiao Yueye's movements with great interest. He stayed by the fire to keep warm. He simply found a small stool and sat down. Then he also built a barbecue grill just like Xiao Yueye did.
Xiao Yueye smiled, touched his head appreciatively, moved his shelf a little, put the iron pot on it, then brought the fire over, and started burning it under the pot.
After taking a lot of ice cubes and putting them into the pot, covering the pot and letting the little leopard watch the fire, Xiao Yueye concentrated on roasting the wild rabbit.
Xiao Yueye had barbecue experience before, and now she was roasting rabbit with style. He added firewood with his left hand and flipped the hare with his right hand from time to time. Soon, the oil and water were roasted, and a faint fragrance filled the air.
The little leopard drooled uncontrollably, glanced at the fire he was looking at, and then looked at the wild rabbit three times. Xiao Yueye was amused by his innocent and cute appearance.
Use a knife to make a few cuts on the hare according to its texture, so that when it is burned, the outside will not be burnt and the inside will not be cooked.
The ice in the other pot also slowly melted.
Xiao Yueye roasted the hare leisurely. Time passed slowly, and the color of the outside of the rabbit also became golden. At this time, Xiao Yueye used a brush to carefully apply a little salt evenly on it, and then continued to roast it. stand up.
At this time, the water in the other pot was already boiling.
Murong Yufeng walked out of the room, smiled at Xiao Yueye, opened the pot lid and said, "Xiao Lang, the water is boiling, what are you going to do?"
Xiao Yueye smiled, first dusted the salt off the brush into the pot, then sniffed it, showing a satisfied smile.
"Almost, little leopard, give me the bowl."
The little leopard quickly handed over the bowl and stared at the hare without blinking. Xiao Yueyue weighed the kitchen knife and moved her right hand, bringing out an invisible phantom that danced all over the hare's body. Not long after, pieces of rabbit meat fell into the bowl, golden and crispy, with a faint glimmer of oil and a fragrant aroma.
At this time, Xiao Yueye only had the complete rabbit skeleton in his hand. He chuckled and threw the bones into the pot.
Following the same pattern, the other rabbit was soon finished.
"So you used rabbit bones to make soup? I can't tell that Xiao Lang's sword skills are so good."
Xiao Yueye smiled: "If I hadn't accompanied Cai Ju to participate in the cooking competition, I might not have been able to achieve this level. Come, eat."
Seeing the little leopard's greedy look, Xiao Yueye laughed and gave him a third: "Here, little leopard, let's eat it for you."
The little leopard quickly took a few pieces and stuffed them into his mouth, then ran into the house with the bowl, presumably for his family to eat.
Seeing his sensible look, Xiao Yueye couldn't help but sigh.
Murong Yufeng tasted the rabbit meat and nodded appreciatively: "It's delicious. Xiao Lang, I didn't expect you to be so good."
"I'm great, but that's not all."
Unexpectedly, these words made Murong Yufeng blush and lower her head shyly.
Xiao Yueye looked at her appearance and immediately guessed what Murong Yufeng was thinking. He had a good time, approached Murong Yufeng and said in a low voice: "Don't get it wrong, even though you and I are very good at that."
Murong Yufeng spat at him and angrily took a piece of rabbit meat and stuffed it into his mouth: "Eat it."
The two of them divided the rabbit meat among themselves. Although it was not enough to eat, for the two martial arts practitioners, it would not be a big deal if they did not eat for a day or two.
After waiting for a while, when the rabbit bones in the pot were almost cooked, Xiao Yueye called out the little leopard family. Although everyone was warm and happy with the rabbit bone soup, it was a bit light. This family, in particular, was full of joy, feeling that God had truly blessed them and sent these two immortals to come down to earth to bless their village. Before, they had never thought that they could eat enough and drink such delicious rabbit bone soup.
After the sky darkened, the square not far away was filled with people. Xiao Yueye and the other two walked over with Little Leopard's family. As soon as they saw them coming, everyone cheered, as if they were watching gods.
In the center of the field, there was a large pot with a large fire burning under the pot. A village woman was cooking a wild boar with a smile. It seems that this village has often had this kind of activity where the whole village eats together. Otherwise, how could there be such a big pot
Murakami expressed his gratitude again, pulled Xiao Yueye and the two of them to sit beside him, and talked nonchalantly, most of which were words of thanks.
The other villagers looked at the big pot in the center with joy on their faces, holding bowls in their hands. From their faces, we can see the joy of life.
Everyone sat around the big pot, and there were many bonfires in the middle of the open space, so there was no need to be afraid of the cold. The firelight splashed and swayed, and these firelights imprinted on the faces of the villagers, bringing out rays of hope.
Looking at everyone's appearance, Murong Yufeng fell into deep thought again, but this time, there was a faint smile on her lips.
After staying up for a long time, the woman finally shouted loudly, and everyone cheered.
The village chief walked to the middle, waved his hand and said: "Quiet, quiet. First the first piece of meat, the first bowl of soup, we want to give it to the benefactor who saved our entire village!"
A few sweaters respectfully held the bowls in front of Xiao Yueye and the two of them. Seeing that everyone looked like they couldn't eat if their benefactor didn't want to eat, Xiao Yueye smiled and accepted it. He only drank the soup and gave the meat to a little girl next to him. The little girl suddenly laughed happily and wanted to give the meat to her mother beside her.
Murong Yufeng kept thinking, her eyes gradually changed from confusion to clarity, and finally to determination, as if she had decided something. She gave her wild boar meat to an old lady next to her, who almost knelt down to thank her.
In the reflection of the fire, Xiao Yueye said with a smile: "I figured it out." (Quanben Novel Network www.qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo.com)
