Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 406 No Need to Pay Attention
Judging from the other party's reaction, he should be telling the people in the carriage about the situation here.

Hong Xiaoduo analyzed that the other party must have come a long way, and at this time, he must be planning to stop to rest, eat something for lunch, and then continue on his journey.

But he was worried about causing trouble, so he sent someone to come and find out the situation.

Hong Xiaoduo didn’t care whether the other party would stop here to rest or not, as long as they didn’t cause trouble.

After mixing the bait, Quan Jinghuai was about to return to the lake to continue fishing, but when he saw a carriage stopped on the side of the road, he stood there and looked at it.

As expected, the three carriages did not move forward. People got out of the carriages, including men and women, young and old.

Those who got off the bus stretched their waists, stretched their legs, and some tapped their lower backs.

After they looked around, their sights fell on Hong Xiaoduo and the others, and they saw that there seemed to be a stove here with steam coming out.

"Sir, do you want me to go and ask them for some hot water?" The follower who just took a look asked the man who was nearly 50 years old.

"You'd better pick up some firewood and light it yourself. How dare you drink the water you get from someone you don't know?" Before the fifty-year-old man could say anything, a gray-haired old woman spoke up.

When the follower heard this, he looked at his master.

"Just listen to the old lady, pick up some firewood to make a fire, boil some water and heat up the food." said the fifty-year-old man.

The follower agreed and called a companion to go collect firewood together.

"Father, I don't want to eat those cold buns and cold pancakes anymore. They are too disgusting." A boy of about eleven or twelve years old whispered to the man next to him.

"Yan'er, why can't you bear such a small hardship? Just be patient. Don't let your grandfather hear it. This time, your grandfather went to Beijing to take up the post and only brought you with him." The man warned in a low voice.

Hearing this, the young man had no choice but to nod.

The man felt distressed when he saw his son's obviously haggard face.

Not to mention his son, even if he ate the cold buns and cold pancakes himself, they would still be difficult to swallow even if they were heated or roasted.

Our family has never suffered such hardships and endured such pain!
But there is no way, with such a long journey, it is inevitable that there will be days when there are no restaurants along the way.

But my father was promoted and took up a post in the capital. Once he arrives in the capital, life will surely be better than before. Thinking of this, the little hardships I endure on the road don’t seem to be a big deal!

The servants they brought were busy making a fire and boiling water. The water was drawn from the well in a town they passed through the day before.

But these servants and attendants could not drink this water, but after all, the master's body was precious!
For servants, any water from a roadside stream or lake will quench your thirst.

Originally, the two groups of people on both sides of the official road did not disturb each other. However, when the group coming from the opposite side was eating cold steamed buns baked over fire and finding it difficult to swallow meat patties, they smelled the aroma of meat wafting from not far away.

"Master, we are also walking, but look at others, they are cooking. Why can't we do that?" An older woman couldn't help but complain.

The man called the master looked at his wife speechlessly and said, "We are in a hurry to travel, but they are not in a hurry to travel. How can it be the same? Didn't you see that they are still setting up a tent?
I told you to keep a low profile on this trip, keep a low profile, as long as you can reach the capital safely, why can't you remember? What are you complaining about? If you complain again, you can turn around and go back later. "

"Father, mother was just saying it casually, she didn't mean to complain." The young man said quickly. Maybe it was because they smelled the meat from across the road, but the family found the food in their hands even harder to swallow. They gritted their teeth and finished the food in their hands, preferring to go hungry rather than continue eating.

The fifty-year-old man stood up and saw that the horses were still eating grass. He remembered his attendant's reminder that two of the horses pulling the cart were obviously exhausted, so he let everyone rest for a while before setting off again.

It was boring to just stand there and wait, so he walked towards the lake, followed by several family members.

When they passed by, Hong Xiaoduo and her friends were getting ready to eat. There were six children and three adults sitting around the long table. Although there were only four dishes, there were fish and meat, and they looked delicious.

The scent became clearer as I got closer.

The key point is that two of the four dishes were served in copper basins.

They were originally a family of officials and had eaten all kinds of delicious food, but when they saw this, the whole family, young and old, swallowed their saliva silently.

The three adults and six children were sitting and eating, eating their own food very naturally. Tianxuan stood up to find duck legs for his younger brother and sister and picked them up.

Three wild ducks were stewed this afternoon, and there were six duck legs. Tianxuan did not keep any for himself, but gave the sixth duck leg to Feiyan.

Master never eats duck legs, but mother only likes to gnaw on duck necks and duck feet.

"Oh my God, how can these gangsters be so cruel, hunting so many wild ducks and fish, it's so bloody?" The old woman first saw a pile of wild ducks with their feathers plucked and large fish with their scales scraped off, and she shouted in an exaggerated voice.

Hong Xiaoduo and the others heard it clearly, and the younger ones all looked at Hong Xiaoduo.

"Don't pay attention to them. Just eat our own food and don't let irrelevant people affect our appetite." Hong Xiaoduo said to the kids with a smile.

When this group of people just walked past, Hong Xiaoduo judged from their greedy eyes and jealous expressions that these people were not easy to get along with. Therefore, even though she saw them eyeing the food on the table with envy, she did not invite them to sit down and eat together.

The fifty-year-old man was about to remind his mother not to do that, but he saw that the man over there clearly heard what his mother had just said, but was still eating with relish, as if he didn't care at all about what he heard.

When the old woman saw that the other party didn't react at all, she was furious. How could the mother of a deputy third-rank official be looked down upon like this?

No, my son is already an official of the second rank.

Why should my mother, a second-rank official, have to eat cold steamed buns and pancakes while these people can enjoy meat and fish?
Thinking so, the old woman started walking towards Hong Xiaoduo and the others. By the time her son, grandson, and followers reacted, it was too late to stop them, so they could only quickly follow them.

"Hey, did you hear what I just said? What do the adults at home teach you on a daily basis?" The old woman pointed at Hong Xiaoduo and the others and scolded.

Hong Xiaoduo was chewing on a duck's paw. Upon hearing this, she frowned, put the paw on the small plate in front of her, and looked up at the old woman.

"No, who are you? Is there something wrong with your brain because of your age? I don't even know you, why are you acting like a big shot here?" Hong Xiaoduo retorted bluntly.

"You?" The old woman didn't expect that the little girl would dare to say such words to her, and she was unable to react for a moment.

"Little girl, she is my mother. Even if what she said was inappropriate, it is not appropriate for you to be so rude and insulting." The fifty-year-old man was annoyed when he heard someone being rude to his mother in front of him.

"That's right, do you know who my grandfather is?" The young man at the side also spoke up...
