After the Fairy Disappeared
Chapter 104: big fish out of deep water
Chapter 104 Big fish come out of deep water
He Chunhua nodded: "Lao Mo is going to do it." The village has just harvested wheat, and they have built a hill behind the village. Presumably there is no shortage of food for the time being, and there is no problem in supplying them with a little hot food.
Mrs. Ying looked at the pancakes on the table. Although freshly baked, there is still a bit of wheat fragrance, but the pancakes are too thick, the edges are a little burnt, and the center is a little white, obviously the hostess is not in the mood to make it properly.
And there is nothing in this pancake, no sesame, no chives, or even oil.
It seems that unexpected guests are not welcome.
Mrs. Ying smiled and said to the owner: "You haven't eaten dinner yet? We don't take up your family's rations, just provide some hot water."
The man got up and went to the back kitchen: "I'm going to get water."
The water in the pot was hot, and the man wanted to pour it into the cup, but the housekeeper refused to let him: "Reheat the pot, and wash the pot." After that, he took out a small string of copper coins, "I will borrow your kitchen. "
The man was taken aback, so he had no choice but to do so. After all, a normal villager would not have trouble with money.
Old Mo followed immediately, scooped water from his tank, filled the pot, set fire, and monitored the whole process without blinking.
Mom Qian, who accompanied the team, also came in with a bag in her arms. "I asked the hostess, and she gave some fruits and vegetables."
She is an old lady brought by Mrs. Ying from her natal family, and she has been taking care of the daily life of the He family. Although she is called old, she is actually only in her early forties.
She borrowed the kitchen of the man's house to wash rice and cook. She saw that she had to prepare several dishes, a pot of hot soup, and even boiled glutinous rice balls!
Rice, oil, dried fruit, and jerky were all brought from Heishui City. The fermented rice wine was bought in a big restaurant in the previous city, which is said to be very famous in the local area. Once it is cooked, the room is filled with the sweet aroma of rice wine.
The man looked dumbfounded: "Oh, the official is so particular about eating and drinking?" Dog official!
"That's right?" Mother Qian only replied.
The man couldn't wait for the next sentence, so he had to ask: "Then where are you going?"
Mama Qian opened her mouth to speak, but Lao Mo nudged her lightly with his elbow, and the latter shut up.
There is no way to interfere here, the man returned to the main room with a lot of thoughts, and saw that there were no guests here, he couldn't help being surprised: "Where are they?"
The woman said tremblingly, "Come on, they want to go out for a walk."
The cottage is too small, the four members of the He family are all adults, and the family cannot fit together, so the He brothers were assigned to another farmhouse.
After dinner, He Yue strolled to the lake and stretched his waist: "We have never had such a wide water surface here, it is really refreshing."
After being squeezed in the cramped carriage for a long time, I stopped by the vast and endless lake, and my heart opened up.
He Lingchuan picked up a pebble on the ground and floated it on the lake.
Shi Zier popped out one, two, three...jumps.
He Yue also became playful, grabbed a stone as well, and blew.
He Lingchuan laughed at him: "You can't!" This little nerd has never played any field skills.
He Yue glanced at him, shook his hand and typed it out.
Shi Zier stuck to the surface of the lake and jumped four times in a row.
He Lingchuan smiled slightly: "You are lucky."
"It's not luck." He Yue picked another stone, weighed it in his hand, and threw it out.
This time it turned out to be six drifters.
Don't say he was surprised, He Lingchuan was dumbfounded. "When did you secretly practice?"
"Small tricks, still need to practice?" He Yue's smile is half-satisfied, "Choose some flat stones, just stick close to the lake surface and use your strength."
He Lingchuan shrugged: "You're right. It's not fun, stop playing."
This brother is impatient when he loses. Just as He Yue was about to retort, the lake water made a sudden splash, causing ripples.
There are likely to be big fish underneath.
Both brothers were taken aback, then looked at each other and smiled.
He Lingchuan suddenly shot two stones towards the bushes on the bank.
"Ouch" twice, and then two or three people came out from behind.
He Yue restrained his smile: "What are you doing?"
"Relieve." These three people were all dressed up as villagers, and one of them even lifted up his pants, "What are you doing here!"
He Lingchuan looked at them and said, "I thought you were hiding here and listening to us talking."
"What's so nice about your words?" These people sneered a few times, and Shi Shiran walked past the He family brothers.
The village head responded to the request of the housekeeper, Lao Mo, and asked the women in the village to cook some hot food for the army. Of course, the village does not always have food for three or four hundred people, so the He family's personal guards volunteered to carry the wheat from the warehouse and grind it into flour.
So, there are a lot of people by the lake right now.
He Lingchuan looked at the figures of those people, and said slowly: "The eyes of these guys are flickering, and they seem to have evil intentions."
He Yue smiled and said: "It's just a villager, bro, no one looks like a good person."
"Who the **** is peeing by the lake where he fetches water for cooking?" He Lingchuan sneered, "These people seem to come from the lower reaches around the lake. Why did they come to Xianling Village in the middle of the night?"
"Maybe it's just a late return." He Yue looked at the lake water and frowned, "After you say that, I don't want to drink water anymore."
At this time, He Chunhua and his wife walked up from the opposite side, with several guards behind them following suit.
Dad is really cautious in a foreign land, and never forgets to protect himself. He Lingchuan went up to greet him: "Father, are you two so free and ambitious?"
"The meal is not ready yet, let's go out to get some air." There were no villagers nearby, so Mrs. Ying could finally speak freely, "The smell in the room is strong, and the bedding probably hasn't been washed for several days."
"Food?" He Yue looked at the lake subconsciously, did he use the water in the lake for cooking? He doesn't want to eat.
Under the bright moonlight, there seemed to be something dark emerging from the lake.
Before he could take a closer look, the thing sank again.
Mrs. Ying also saw it, and asked in surprise, "What is that?"
"Big fish come out of deep water." He Chunhua said with a smile, "Xianling Lake has existed for too long, and it is not surprising that there are so many spiritual creatures in it."
He looked at his two sons: "You know, Yuan Gaozu set up an army by the lakeside of the fairy lake, and built up his achievements step by step, so that he has the huge territory of today's Yuan Kingdom."
Two sons, one nodded and said yes, the other said in surprise: "Oh, is this here?"
"It's by the lake, but it's not here." Someone answered the conversation, and the He family looked back to see that it was Lu Han, the village chief's nephew.
This strong man is very enthusiastic: "If the official is interested, I can lead the way. The scenery there is unique, there is a spectacle of double moons, and literati often come to visit."
"Shuangyue?" Mrs. Ying was a little interested, and He Chunhua looked around, "Where did the village chief go?"
"He felt unwell due to the wind and cold, and told me to treat everyone well." The strong man turned around, "Here we go."
"No, the food in the house is almost ready, and it's late, so it's the same when I go to see it tomorrow morning." He Chunhua shook his head, "I think Mr. Lu is eloquent, unlike a villager."
