Chapter 33 Chicken Legs Are Delicious
Xia Xing'er really couldn't understand her thoughts. She would guard these treasures for her whole life and couldn't take them with her when she died. What was the point?
Now, all these belong to her. Consider it as the reward for her hard work in the general's mansion for three years.
Xia Xing'er looked around but couldn't find the switch, so it seemed she had no choice but to ask for help.
"System, find where the switch is?"
"It's right under the old woman's pillow! Didn't I tell you just now?"
"When did you tell me that?"
The system also knew that it was in the wrong: "Okay, host, get to work quickly."
There were quite a lot of things. There were more than a dozen large boxes of gold, silver and jade, and three large boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings.
There was a small box on top, and out of curiosity, Xia Xing'er opened it.
The things inside were actually all from her dowry. Unexpectedly, she had given the old woman a lot of good things in the past three years, and now they were returned to their original owner.
"Host, is there something under that rockery?"
"How do I get that thing out?"
Xia Xing'er really didn't expect that there was something under this ordinary rockery. She just didn't know if the people in the general's mansion knew about it.
"Host, place your hand on the rockery and use your mind to collect it!"
Xia Xing'er followed the system's instructions, but she didn't expect that hundreds of large boxes would all be delivered to the system space. However, her head felt a little sore.
"System, why didn't you tell me before that I could just use my mind to collect it without opening the secret room?"
"I thought you knew, host?"
Well, this is my fault again.
"System, why do I feel a tingling in my head after I just collected something?"
"That's because the host's mental strength is too low. In the novice gift pack, there is a book on cultivating mental strength. The host must seize the time to cultivate."
"If the host doesn't like that book, you can buy it again on the trading platform!"
Tsk, he must have taken a fancy to these things I collected and wants to trick me!
When I arrived at the study in the general's mansion, the furnishings were still the same as before, except that there were many new military books. It seemed that Helian Zhi had spent a lot of time here.
Forget it, never mind, take them all away. Let’s see what you’re going to do with your wedding tomorrow!
"System, can I use my current points to buy another bottle of the medicine I just bought?"
Xia Xing'er thought, since the two of them truly loved each other, they must share the difficulties and take the medicine together.
"Host, it's not enough. Are you still short of 20 points?"
"Can I buy it on credit?"
"Theoretically, it's not possible!"
"Then we can discuss it."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and give me a bottle of medicine. I'll use gold coins to pay for the points later!"
The system was delighted because the price on the trading platform had increased, and the extra points must have gone into its own treasury.
"Okay, host, your current score is -20."
Xia Xing'er looked at the small porcelain bottle in her hand and was still a little surprised. This thing is really expensive. She should feed some to Helian Zhishao.
When they arrived at Helian Zhi's yard, they sprinkled a packet of sleeping pills to be on the safe side.
After waiting for half a minute, he went in, opened his mouth, and fed him half of the medicine.
After finishing everything, she put everything in the house into the space, but left the groom's clothes. She couldn't let them get married tomorrow without wedding clothes. She was not such an ignorant person.
Just as I was about to leave, I saw a white carrier pigeon landed on the windowsill.
Xia Xing'er watched the little white dove flutter a few times and then fall down.
The letter on the carrier pigeon was a reply from the fifth prince of Beidi. Helian Zhi had already informed Beidi that Xuanyuan Yi had been exiled to Liangzhou by Emperor Shunkang, and demanded to restart the war and kill Xuanyuan Yi during the exile to prevent future troubles!
I really didn't expect that Helian Zhi was actually colluding with Beidi. Emperor Shunkang was really blind. He didn't treat loyal generals well, and he betrayed his country and collaborated with the enemy. He favored him and sent information to other countries' spies. If he didn't destroy the country, who would? It's just a pity for the people of the world.
After thinking about it, she teleported back to the palace and delivered the account book of the Minister of War's corruption, as well as the carrier pigeon letters from Helian Zhi and the fifth prince of Beidi, to Emperor Shunkang's desk.
It depends on him what Emperor Shunkang does. If nothing unexpected happens, a few more people will be exiled tomorrow.
After doing all this, Xia Xing'er teleported back to the cell. Seeing that everyone was still sleeping soundly, she felt relieved. Just as she was about to lie down next to Xia's mother, she heard a child's voice coming from the side.
"Mom, the chicken legs are so delicious, Achuan wants more!"
If you look closely, you can see the little guy's saliva flowing out.
Xia Xing'er shook him gently, and the little guy opened his eyes drowsily, called out "Auntie," and continued to close his eyes and sleep.
He didn't forget to smack his lips, "Delicious, really delicious..."
Xia Xing'er shook him gently again and whispered, "Auntie, here are some chicken legs!"
Xia Zichuan woke up immediately, crawled out of her mother's arms, and stared at Xia Xing'er.
His actions also woke Bai Wan'er up.
Xia Xing'er knew that the little guy must be hungry. He had never suffered or gone hungry since he was born.
It is really not easy for such a young child to be so sensible. Even when he is hungry, he does not scream and shout like the children in other cells. She knows that this is inseparable from his usual education.
She did not hesitate and directly took out two hot roast chickens from the space.
He tore off a chicken leg and stuffed it directly into Xia Zichuan's hand, then tore off two more chicken legs and stuffed them into Xia Ziyu and Xia Zibo who woke up after smelling the food.
The adults also woke up one after another. Without saying anything extra, they sat in a circle and started eating.
Xia Xinger took out a casserole of chicken soup, steamed buns, pork elbow, and steak from the space one after another...
The adults were not surprised at all that Xia Xing'er could produce things out of thin air; they just thought she had stockpiled them in advance.
But the little ones were shocked.
"Is my aunt a fairy?"
"Auntie can conjure up delicious food out of thin air?"
"Little aunt knows magic?"
Looking at the three little ones' silly and cute faces, Xia Xing'er's head exploded: "Why are you just staring blankly? Hurry up and eat. If others see you, there will be nothing left to eat!"
The three little ones finally reacted and quickly started eating the chicken legs in their hands.
My mouth and hands were covered in oil after eating.
At this moment, they were really satisfied. They had never thought that chicken legs could be so delicious.
Zhuge Pei was eating pork elbow, and it felt like the taste was a bit like the imperial kitchen in the palace!
But then I think it’s impossible. I must be very hungry today, which is why I have this illusion!
Why wasn’t I as thoughtful as my sister-in-law and stored more meat!
Xia Xing'er said as she took out the food, "Eat more, everyone. There will definitely be nothing to eat tomorrow morning, and we have to hurry!"
Looking at the delicious food on the ground, Xia Xing'er was still taking it out. Mother Xia grabbed her hand and said, "Xing'er, this is enough. Don't take any more. Save the rest for the road!"
