Pastoral Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 306 Meeting on the street again (2)
This is not the only thing that worries Wu Chengming.First, Wu Chengcai's father and son died tragically. They knew it was the bandits, but Bai Jin tried every means to evade them and refused to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits.Then Wu Chengming thought, once his uncle died, the money should be his own.As a result, after entering the mansion to check, all the things were moved out, even the cellar was not spared, and more than a dozen houses were set on fire.That's not to mention, Bai Jin resigned, and a new county magistrate came to him, who liked to ignore him.Wu Chengming didn't know what to do, so he became more cautious in his words and deeds.It is also rare to take the initiative to restrain the servant and his son Wu Gen, so that they will not cause trouble.

The victims rushed back and forth, first to get a bowl of thick one from Li Zhu's side, and then to get a bowl of thinner one from Wu's house.The streets are bustling with people coming and going.Among the crowd were two young men strolling about.

Chen Guan followed his elder brother Chen Jin out to investigate the situation of the people.When passing by the porridge shed of Wu's family, Chen Jin nodded and said calmly, "This Wu Chengming is quite well-behaved."

Chen Guan commented disapprovingly: "I'm used to meeting old cunning people who can change the direction of the wind. However, he is much smarter than his cousin."

As soon as Chen Guan mentioned Wu Chengcai, he became angry. He heard that after he left, that guy really made things difficult for the Yang family, and even snatched his dog.If he hadn't already gone to the west, he would never have spared this fellow.

The two continued to walk forward, and after a while, they came to a place that was even more noisy.The victims raised their big bowls high and shouted: "There is me, there is me."

At this time, a muscular boy said in a naive voice: "Everyone, don't crowd, line up. Whoever is crowded hard, let him stand aside."

Everyone crowded for a while, lined up obediently, and took turns to receive the meal.

What I received this time was not porridge, but a steamed bun with wild vegetables.The person who got it first couldn't wait to take a big bite, and shouted in surprise: "It's delicious, it tastes like meat inside!"

Those who didn't get their turn looked disbelieving, "Second brother, is it true or not, could it be that you are crazy about meat?"

The man handed over the cornbread and said generously: "If you don't believe me, you have a taste." The person who asked the question narrowed his eyes, opened his mouth wide and took a big bite as much as he could.Cheeks are bulging.

"Hiss, why is your mouth so big?"

"Does it smell like meat?"

"Yes, yes."

Chen Guan was amused by the scene in front of him.Chen Jin's complexion also softened a little.

Chen Jin squeezed to the side to see who the person who Shi Wotou was.

At this time, Li Zhu, Xiaochun and two helping women were dividing up the nest.

An old man in the team took a bite of the cornbread after receiving it, put it in his arms again, and stood beside him to talk to Li Zhu.

"Girl, you are too kind. It's okay for us people to survive starvation. How can we still add meat to the steamed stuffed bun. No matter how much wealth you have, it's not enough for such a fee."

Li Zhu smiled and said: "I don't usually add it. To be honest, the number of times I eat meat is limited throughout the year. It's just a coincidence. One is that my tiger went up the mountain yesterday to hunt some prey, and the other is that it happened to be mine today. When it’s your birthday, it’s time to treat everyone to dinner.”

When everyone heard this, they congratulated Li Zhu one after another.Some asked her tiger curiously.
