At sunrise, the flowers on the river are redder than fire; in spring, the river water is as green as blue.
At the hour of Mao, a red color appeared in the eastern sky, and the fiery red sun slowly rose from the clouds and jumped out of the mountains.
Like a ball of fire hanging on the corner of the mountain in the east, the surrounding mountains are covered with colorful coats.
Su Sijin opened her eyes with difficulty in the sultry morning.
"It's too hot today."
Su Sijin narrowed her eyes slightly, and one hand unconsciously wiped the sweat from her face and neck, revealing a hint of charm in her sleepy eyes.
Lu Changgong looked away awkwardly, his expression expressionless, but his clenched hands betrayed his disguise.
Shen Tingyun wrung a piece of cloth for Su Sijin, "Wipe the sweat and get rid of the heat."
Su Sijin patted her cheeks, and her chaotic thoughts returned to reality.
Zheng Jie had already cooked some wild vegetable porridge with dried meat. It was delicious and filling, provided that the wild vegetable porridge was cooked well.
However, Zheng Jie's cooking skills were so good that Lu Changgong ate with relish without changing his expression.
Even the rough guy, Lu Changming, who was not picky about food, frowned and ate the wild vegetable porridge with a heroic look.
Lu Qiuling was even more exaggerated. She pinched her nose and took only a sip before she couldn't eat any more. However, the Lu family was well-educated. Even if the food tasted bad, they would not waste it, let alone complain.
Su Sijin took a sip. The astringency of the wild vegetables made her tongue numb, and the bitterness of the wild vegetables almost made her vomit out the dried meat in her stomach that had been left over from the previous night.
Su Sijin really found it difficult to swallow. When she was in a dilemma, Lu Changgong took the wild vegetable porridge she had drunk with his slender hands and ate it in one gulp while tilting his head back.
Su Sijin was stunned at the scene. Lu Changgong actually drank the wild vegetable porridge that she had drunk?
This...this person...how could he do this?
Su Sijin's cheeks were burning hot, and even her ears were so hot that they could fry a small fish.
Lu Changgong, with a paralyzed expression, met her gaze calmly and said lightly, "Food cannot be wasted."
Lu Changgong was calm as if it was just a trivial matter, but Su Sijin was worried.
Su Sijin despised herself and her own wild thoughts.
Su Sijin suppressed her discomfort and turned to Zheng Jie, "Mom, I'll be responsible for cooking from now on, and you and Tingshu will be responsible for washing and collecting firewood."
Zheng Jie smiled awkwardly. She also felt that the food she cooked was hard to swallow.
Especially after eating the food cooked by Su Sijin, if you eat what you cook yourself, it may be that the food she cooks is not even as good as pig food.
So, he nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll listen to Sijin."
She'd better not cause trouble to everyone!
Lu Qiuling happily hugged Su Sijin's neck, jumping and dancing, saying, "Yeah! Sister-in-law will cook from now on."
"puff……"
Su Sijin couldn't help laughing, and then the Lu family members laughed at the same time.
The cheerful atmosphere on Su Sijin's side made Guo Yanling, who was not far away, very angry.
Especially when she saw Lu Changgong looking at Su Sijin with a gentle face, and then looked at the short and stout Lu Changye beside her, she regretted her previous decision again.
Previously, it was thought that since Lu Changgong had lost his power and had a disfigured face, and looked like a ghost, it wouldn't matter if she married Lu Changye, because the title of King of Changsha would fall on his father Lu Zhe.
By then, I will be the Crown Prince's Consort, and in the future I will be the Princess.
Who would have thought that the Changsha Palace would collapse overnight and all the members of the Lu family would be exiled.
If I had known this earlier, if I had known this earlier... Guo Yanling pinched Lu Changye's arm in regret.
Lu Changye felt pain and slapped him backhanded.
Guo Yanling covered her swollen cheek and asked in disbelief, "Lu Changye, you dare to hit me? Have you forgotten how much effort you put into marrying me?"
"Have you forgotten the oath you made to my father in order to marry me?"
While Guo Yanling was speaking, Lu Changye punched and kicked her again. Finally, after venting enough, he spat at her angrily.
"Bah, you're still using your title of being the secretary's daughter. If you hadn't wanted to marry that cripple Lu Changgong."
"The reason I married you was to take away that loser's things. I will take away everything that belongs to him."
Lu Changye's unintentional action of lifting her hair scared Guo Yanling so much that she held her head and trembled.
Everyone in the second, third, and fourth rooms watched her being beaten with a gloating look on their faces.
No one came forward to help.
"Go, bring me breakfast."
Lu Changye was so arrogant that he clapped his hands in disdain and ordered Guo Yanling to serve the food like a boss.
Guo Yanling covered her face and limped over to do as she was told.
But the corner of his eye between his fingers stared at Su Sijin like a poisonous snake.
"What's going on? Why are you picking up people?" Tang Peng's scolding interrupted the warmth on Su Sijin's side.
The convicts were seen carrying five men covered in blood and two women towards the camp.
Since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of people in lively places. Everyone rushes forward, fearing that they will miss the excitement if they are a step late.
Su Sijin was no exception. She told Lu Changming to take good care of his family, and she squeezed to the front.
"Replying to the Jie people, they are injured, probably attacked by wild animals. Several people have fainted there. We can't just stand by and watch them die!"
"So we took it upon ourselves to bring them back."
The man who was speaking was not being exiled or having his property confiscated, but was being sentenced to exile for violating the Dai Viet Code.
"You are meddling in other people's business. We are about to leave. If you bring back so many people and delay our trip, I will hold you accountable."
Tang Peng threatened fiercely, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Su Sijin glanced at the fugitives and found that they had all violated the law. She then looked at the six people lying on the ground.
Su Sijin went forward to check their wounds, and found that they were indeed injured by wild beasts. She also felt their pulses, which were strong and powerful.
Su Sijin took out silver needles and pierced their heads and Ren Zhong acupoints. After a moment, they woke up.
"You saved me, benefactors, great benefactors!"
One person kowtowed, and the others followed suit to express their gratitude.
"Now that you're awake, hurry home. We're about to set off."
Tang Peng didn't give them much time and wanted to send them away and set off quickly.
But the man tried his best to keep the host and introduced himself, "My benefactor! We live right here in front. We have been farmers for generations, and we also go hunting in the mountains in our spare time."
"Just last night, we were chasing a wild boar and were attacked by the beast. If it weren't for your benefactor, there might not be even a bone left of us."
"The grace of saving my life is as great as the sky. I see that my benefactors haven't had a good meal for a long time, but the simple food of the farmers is always there."
The man's words filled the air with anticipation, and everyone present was eager to accept the offer on Tang Peng's behalf.
While they were talking and trying their best to persuade Tang Peng to take everyone back with them, Su Sijin stayed at the man's mouth for a moment.
Then she stared at the man with a smile.
