Chapter 27 The weak must accept their fate

After seeing Yingfeng's agreement, Shen Yunyue did not return to the house. She took out some rice, washed it, and poured it into a large iron pot.

It seems that it was the right decision to ask the waiter to buy rice and noodles in the morning.

Ah Si came in with a bundle of firewood on his back, another in his right hand, and a pheasant in his left hand. The pheasant was not big, but it made the people living in the corridor drool.

They had never smelled the aroma of chicken in their lives.

The monkey came over from the carriage wearing a straw raincoat and carrying a basket of steamed buns. The buns were soaked by the rain.

"Ah Si. You went to the woods again?"

"Yeah. I went to chop firewood and shot a pheasant." Ah Si looked at the pheasant and didn't let it go to the escort.

The monkey didn't ask for it.

The main reason was that the pheasant was too small, and it was difficult for them to divide it even though there were so many people escorting it.

"If the rain doesn't stop in the afternoon, I'll go to the woods with you." The monkey put the basket under the porch and turned to instruct Ah Si.

Ah Si was originally a hunter.

He was very familiar with the forest. "Okay. Let's go with more people. I see wild boar tracks."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the word wild boar.

The monkey laughed and said:

"Okay. I'll tell Peng Tou when the time comes."

A few more officers came to the corridor carrying baskets.

There are many people in the corridor.

The baskets at the back were placed directly in the yard. Rainwater mixed with mud on the ground, soaking the bottoms of the baskets in muddy water.

The monkey roared:

"Line up to get steamed bread."

Everyone lined up consciously.

There will be people from the Shen family lining up to get the steamed bread.

Ah Si killed the chicken in no time. "Ms. Yue, how do you want to cook this chicken?"

A skinny chicken weighs less than two pounds, and even with the blood and offal, there's not much left.

Shen Yunyue pondered for a while and said:

"Let's cook porridge."

"I picked some wild ginger in the woods." Ah Si was different from those house-born boys who guarded the house. As someone who grew up in the mountains and forests, he knew what was edible.

"Uncle Si, you go and rest. I'll do it."

Shen Yunyue took the cleaned ginger and placed the cutting board on the ground.

Take a kitchen knife and start shredding the ginger.

Ah Si didn't rest either.

Seeing the stove over there boiling herbal water, he went to the outside of the courtyard wall to find a few stones and built a simple stove, then placed the big iron pot on it.

Lift the water from the wooden barrel and pour it into the iron pot.

Then put the wooden barrel outside to collect water.

Rainwater is very clean, saving us the trouble of fetching water from the pond.

Shen Yunyue placed the chopped chicken in the pot and added shredded ginger to make soup. After instructing Yingfeng and Fu Xuansheng to watch the pot, she got up and returned to the temple.

He Lushuang watched as everyone lined up to receive steamed bread.

She quickly ran to Fu Xuanheng's side and deliberately moved the corners of her lips. She forced a fake smile and said, "Cousin. Are you okay?"

He Lushuang is about the same age as Shen Yunyue.

She spent a lot of time in the Crown Prince's Mansion since she was young, often accompanying the Crown Princess with He Luxue and others. She had a special relationship with the Crown Princess, and she also developed a domineering personality.

Exiled all the way.

Some of her youthful arrogance and pampering have been worn away.

Fu Xuanheng did not treat him coldly like he treated others.

He glanced at her expressionlessly, "Something wrong?"

He Lushuang squatted down and tilted her head to look at him, "Does your leg hurt?"

Fu Xuanheng was stunned, as if he didn't expect her to ask this.

He shook his head and said nothing.

"If my aunt were here, she would definitely feel sorry for you." He Lushuang spoke to herself, talking about her time with the Crown Princess in the Crown Prince's Mansion. Finally, she added, "Brother, it would be great if my aunt were still alive."

"Yes. It would be great if mother were alive." Fu Xuanheng not only wanted his mother to be alive, but also wanted his father who cared about his country and the world to be alive.

Even if the whole family is exiled.

He won't feel so bitter.

"Cousin, can I come visit you more often in the future? I wanted to come visit you before, but I had my own reasons."

Fu Xuanheng's eyes were dim.

"It's better not to come here."

"Why? Are you going to be estranged from me too?" He Lushuang looked incredulous. Logically speaking, Fu Xuanheng was a useless person and she wouldn't dare to pick on him. "I don't care about you and my grandmother. I just care that you are my cousin."

Shen Yunyue came in and just heard He Lushuang's coquettish voice.

She brushed the goose bumps off her arms. The girl's voice was so numb.

"Cousin, I have a piece of advice for you. Stay away from me." Fu Xuanheng said and closed his eyes.

His mind kept replaying his mother's words, and he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. His mother's longed-for maternal home had ultimately failed her.

He closed his eyes and didn't see the disgust in He Lushuang's eyes.

But Shen Yunyue saw it clearly.

"cousin."

"Forget cousin. Miss He is so young, but she has two faces. Her eyes are full of disgust, but her voice can make people numb half of their body." Shen Yunyue sneered, "No wonder Madam He always likes to call me little bitch. I said there must be a reason."

Hearing Shen Yunyue's merciless words.

Fu Xuanheng's lips curled up in an imperceptible arc.

Didn't open his eyes.

He Lushuang stood up and said to Shen Yunyue viciously:

"What are you so proud of? If my aunt were still alive, how could she allow you to be so arrogant?"

"Whether your aunt is alive or not doesn't affect my rampant behavior."

He Lushuang was half a head taller than Shen Yunyue. He stretched out his hand to measure the height between them, feeling annoyed at Shen Yunyue's unyielding mouth.

"I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of my aunt."

He Lushuang raised her hand and slapped him.

Shen Yunyue slapped him even faster. She ducked down to avoid He Lushuang's slap.

"You dare to hit me?"

"She did. Why not?" Shen Yunyue looked at the visibly reddened right side of her face and chuckled as she shook her head. "Poor little beauty, your face is so red and swollen that it's not pretty anymore."

"Ahhhh..." He Lushuang held her head and screamed, "Shen Yunyue, you hit me. How dare you hit me?"

"I'll hit you if I want to. Why do I have to choose a day? Tell the person who gave you the advice: the weak must accept their fate. When all tricks are exhausted and things don't go as you wish, you must admit defeat. What's the point of calling a brainless person like you here?"

Shen Yunyue's words were like a slap in He Luxue's face.

The elderly people in the He family all had gloomy expressions on their faces.

"Cousin, look at this bitch bullying me." He Lushuang stomped her feet and called out to Fu Xuanheng.

Fu Xuanheng opened his eyes unhappily, "I told you to stay away from me but you didn't listen. You're as stupid as a pig, what can I do?"

He Lushuang didn't expect Fu Xuanheng to call her stupid.

He stared at Fu Xuanheng in disbelief, "You useless person, you actually called me stupid?"

A hint of murderous intent surged in Fu Xuanheng's eyes, and he retracted his gaze, which became as calm as a dry well.

"roll."

Shen Yunyue raised her hand and slapped her again. "He can ignore you scolding Fu Xuanheng, but not me."

"You still dare to hit me? Do you think you can do whatever you want here?" He Lushuang raised his hand to fight with Shen Yunyue.

Shen Yunyue snorted coldly and slapped him twice.

He raised his foot and kicked He Lushuang to the ground.

"I told you not to come here looking for a fight for no reason. You are really born bitches." Shen Yunyue moved her kicking foot with a mocking look on her face. She could tell from the look of He Luxhuang begging for help just now that this man was provoked by He Luxue's few words.

"Shuang'er. How are you?" He Lushuang's mother screamed and rushed over.

"Mom. That bitch from the Shen family beat me. I want revenge. I want to kill her."

"If you dare to scold me again, don't blame me for being rude to you." Shen Yunyue walked over and kicked He Lushuang, "Let me see whether you are stubborn or not."

"Sir, the girl from the Shen family has killed someone."
