Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Gu Xiang secretly teased himself saying 'not busy enough'.

But the fact is not the case.

Gu Xiang was already so busy that he got up early and was very hungry, and he only had time to fry two soft-boiled eggs for himself and put them in the pancakes to eat.

Other porridge and rice are made by Lao Du and the others.

Gu Zhuang is not too busy here, almost all the food has been put into the warehouse, and other statistical taxes and the like are trivial matters. Qiuli has done a few calculations, and led a group of small people to do the calculations and checks. Can't go wrong.

It's just that there have been bandits outside.

Wangzhi County sent two letters in three days, saying that several counties in the surrounding area had encountered bandits who came to grab food.Gu Zhuang had just experienced a situation where the enemy had infiltrated the village, and the level of ferocity was much greater than that of other counties.Let's talk about the homicide case just now, after Mrs. Liu was arrested, she didn't say a word at first, but later, Wang Zhi County and their interrogation skills were excellent, and they specifically mentioned Mrs. Liu's precious brother.

As soon as her brother was mentioned, she explained everything in one breath.

Sure enough, she had something to do with those bandits.

When Mrs. Liu lost her farm job, Blacksmith Li strictly ordered her not to take the money from the family to help her younger brother.

Even the entire Li family is handed over to his daughter-in-law Lu Xiu'e. Liu has no money, and his younger brother is in a hurry. He only wants to buy books, pens and ink, and repairs. Live money out.

She went around pleading for relationships and met with many obstacles, so maybe she fell into the eyes of others. That day, a peddler from another village came to her door and asked her to buy some news about the farm and Guzhuang, saying that there were elders in his family who wanted Before making a deal with Gu Xiang, I want to find out about Gu Xiang's details first, and also show off my own abilities, so that I can take the initiative.

Mrs. Liu was short of money, and she was very confused about her younger brother, so she agreed immediately when she heard it, without thinking about it.

How much information she betrayed in one breath, even she herself didn't know, anyway, it was more about the farm.

Mrs. Liu has worked on the farm and knows this place the best.

Later, bandits were recruited in the village, and Gu Xiang arrested the older ones. Mrs. Liu didn't think that these bandits would have anything to do with her, and she didn't care at all. The place was demolished, and the other party walked away in a hurry, she shivered, and finally realized that something was wrong.

At that time, Mrs. Liu was in a panic, but when she came back, she was knocked down by her son, who also followed her.

Mrs. Liu was also terrified, her mind was in chaos, and when she recovered, a big mistake had been made.

The bandits are obviously very attached to their own village, regardless of what these people want to do, the real target is Gu Zhuang.

Because of this, Chen Xu and the old dog were already so busy that they had nothing to eat.

It is already very annoying to have a Liu family out, but if another one comes out, the old dog feels that he will never have the face to see anyone again.

The people under his hands were one by one, and Gu Xiang had no choice but to keep the stove on fire day and night. Whenever the two of them were hungry, they could always have a mouthful of hot food.

Not only because of her gourmet spots, but Gu Xiang himself knows well that after working overtime until he gets dizzy, he wishes he could fall on the bed and sleep until the world is overturned. If he can have a satisfying meal afterwards, it would be awesome What a relief.

Gu Xiang was extremely wary of these bandits outside Gu Zhuang.

Now the government and the public are relatively stable, not in troubled times, and despite the many natural disasters in the past two years, the imperial court has been able to cope with it, and the disaster relief in various places has been timely. In a short while, the imperial court is not in danger of overthrowing, and the bandits are naturally out of control .

In troubled times, monsters and evildoers are rampant, and bandits in the prosperous times are just small troubles.

But this small fight is for the nobles.

The nobles only take these things outside as a pleasure, Gu Xiang himself is surrounded by a group of experts, safe and sound, but there are high walls in the world, how many people have housekeepers and guards?
There are thousands of people in the world, and most of them are ordinary people.

In the eyes of these ordinary people, every time there is a bandit, it may be the imminent disaster of destroying the family.

Gu Xiang can't take care of other places, but he always has to protect the fathers and villagers in his hometown. Recently, as soon as the grain was harvested, he urged everyone to hide a batch of grain in a safe and secret place, and specially ordered every household to build cellars and secret passages. The organs in the village have been refurbished.

The guards and patrols were even more vigilant. The guard posts were pushed out several miles, and a bunch of spies were sent out, but all foreigners crossing the border must be watched.

On this day, Gu Xiang looked at the intelligence of the nearby state capitals that the old dog and the others had handed over, and marked the various movements of the bandits on the map.

When the wind blew outside, the corner of the map was blown up. As soon as Gu Xiang raised his head, he heard some movement outside.

"Snow Eagle?"

Xue Ying sat on the opposite eaves, as usual.

The problem is that Gu Xiang didn't see Xue Ying when she was doing nothing before. I have my own habits. Qiu Li especially likes to stay within her sight range. It's best for her to be anywhere and do anything as long as she looks up for the first time. Just be able to see it.

Xue Ying is different, she likes to hide in all kinds of corners and corners when she has nothing to do, Gu Xiang can't see people easily, only when she needs to find someone, people come to her eyes.

Seeing Xue Ying at this time, Gu Xiang panicked.

Only then did a human life lawsuit happen, could there be a second one right after that?

As soon as the thought flashed, Gu Xiang saw the trees suddenly blooming—two rows of more than 20 fruit trees of various colors outside the study, under the moonlight, bright lights lit up little by little.

Gu Xiang blinked, and saw the lights spread in all directions with the wind, and then rose slowly, like small lanterns floating towards the sky one after another.

In an instant, a large group of fireworks exploded in the sky, and the bright night was as beautiful as a fairyland.

When the fireworks dissipated, the lights spelled out four huge characters of "Longevity and Ankang", with exquisite patterns all over the surroundings.

Gu Xiang was stunned, and for a moment had the illusion of returning to the 21st century.

It's just that even in the 21st century, such a good fireworks show seems to be very rare.

Qiu Li stood at the window in a daze, pinched her arm suddenly: "Oh, it's my little lady's birthday."

At this time, a young general in silver armor walked outside, and he respectfully handed over a letter: "May Your Royal Highness be happy forever."

Inside the envelope was a painting, a figure painting, and the one in the painting was An Guogong.

This time it's not a silhouette, with sculpted eyebrows and bright eyes, handsome and extraordinary.Just wearing a particularly festive red robe, holding longevity peaches in his hands, pine trees on the left, and groups of cranes on the right. The composition of the whole painting is colorful and exaggerated.

Gu Xiang smiled.

……

Yanzhou
Sitting in the tent, Zhao Ying was rarely distracted, thinking of Gu Xiang's birthday, thinking of his big gift, and also thinking of that day when he asked the kitchen to cook a bowl of longevity noodles for himself to eat. While eating, the messenger came to the tent.

"Is the princess happy?"

The messenger looked at his young master silently, nodded slightly, and saw the young master's brows and eyes stretched, showing a smile, hesitatingly said: "The princess asked the younger one to bring a message to the young master."

Zhao Ying hurriedly put down the pen and ink in his hand, coughed lightly, and stretched out his hand to touch the slightly itchy Adam's apple: "What?"

"...Princess, please play less... Be careful of fire."

Zhao Ying: "..."
