Chapter 48 Food Protection
Xia Daohua reacted immediately, and before her quick-talking parents could stop her, she declared her sovereignty:
"Master, I'm going to save this rabbit for my brother Wulang to eat. My brother Wulang's butt is injured and he needs to be healed."
Old Master Xia was stunned when he heard this, and then he burst into laughter:
"Good, good! Daohua is a really good kid! Follow me! She is worthy of being a member of my Xia family!"
Seeing Mr. Xia's attitude, Xia Youtian and Jiang finally relaxed their tense nerves. They had not expected that Daohua would be so bold.
And Mr. Xia’s attitude surprised them even more.
Old Master Xia patted Xia Daohua's head soothingly and said kindly, "Good child, you know how to protect your food! And you know how to protect your brother! You are such a good child!"
Xia Youtian and Jiang had encountered so many surprises and shocks tonight that they were even a little numb now.
Speaking of which, it seems that Xia Daohua has become a lot braver after she fell and broke her head.
The temperament is a little different too.
Fortunately, however, things are changing for the better.
After they chatted for a while, Mr. Xia, Xia Youtian and Xia Youliang started working enthusiastically. As the two daughters-in-law, Jiang and Cheng had no choice but to take on the responsibility of cooking in the kitchen.
Several people worked for half the night, peeling the wolf and rabbit skins, cutting the wolf and rabbit meat into large and small pieces, applying salt to the meat that needed to be salted, smoking it with pine branches, and cooking it in the pot...
Even the bones were carefully collected.
During this period, Grandpa Xia also specially respected Xia Daohua's opinion and reserved the rabbit meat without making any other arrangements.
Because the delay was too long, neither the wolf nor the rabbit lost much blood.
They put all the blood into a large wooden basin, added some salt and tofu crumbs, kneaded it, and made a lot of blood tofu.
The taste of blood tofu is really no worse than blood sausage!
The aroma of blood tofu and wolf meat filled the yard.
The second and third rooms, which had already gone to bed, also got up with drooling at the aroma.
Old Master Xia instructed Jiang and Cheng to distribute a pot of cooked wolf meat to each room, and asked the second and third rooms to take it to their own rooms to eat.
He also happily took the big bowl of rice and went back to the old couple's room.
The fourth and fifth wives ate the remaining wolf meat in the pot and drank the broth. They were sweating all over and their foreheads were steaming, as if they had suddenly gained strength.
Xia Daohua also felt that her body was almost full of energy.
Then, she felt this energy being drained away in an instant with a "whoosh".
Most likely it’s the space supermarket that’s being greedy again.
Xia Daohua served herself another bowl without saying a word.
In the end, the fourth and fifth rooms watched Xia Daohua eat five bowls of wolf meat by herself.
Their eyes were all wide open. It was unimaginable that Xia Daohua, with such a thin body, could eat so much! It was strange, where did she eat all that?
However, after being surprised for a while at how sweetly Xia Daohua was eating, they continued to work hard against the clock.
It turned out that when Zhou was in charge, the Xia family always lived a very frugal life.
Even if you slaughter the New Year pig, there are few opportunities to eat meat like this.
Now that we have such a good opportunity, how can we not cherish it?
Even Linghua ate a whole bowl of wolf meat, drinking it all together with the soup, feeling warm and full.
He burped four or five times in a row before he finally stopped.
Among the four branches of the Xia family, Wulang is the worst off.
Wulang didn't get to eat a single bite of the wolf meat.
Because Old Master Xia had said that until Wu Lang's injuries were completely healed, he couldn't eat a single bite of the wolf meat, and it would be best if he couldn't even drink the soup.
Xia Daohua nodded happily immediately.
Anyway, there are four wolves hiding in the storage area of her space supermarket.
As long as she wants, she can let Wulang eat until he vomits!
Of course there is no need to rush.
Seeing that the big pot was almost empty, at Jiang's insistence, Cheng also brought a small bowl of wolf meat to Liu Lang and Zaohua.
But the two children are sleeping soundly, so there is no need to wake them up now.
It’s the same if you wait until tomorrow to eat it.
That night, everyone in the Xia family slept soundly, except Wulang, who was suffering from the double torture of buttock pain and greed.
Just when the Xia family was sleeping soundly, the Qianhu Suo in Beiguan Town welcomed a group of mysterious guests.
They all rode tall horses, carried scimitars and muskets, wore exquisite brocade and silk clothes, covered their faces with black veils, and had dozens of carriages.
These guests arrived in the middle of the night and quickly infiltrated the Qianhu Suo.
The captain, who was sleeping soundly with his sword in his arms, and the deputy captain, who was sleeping soundly with his concubine in his arms, were both rudely awakened by this group of uninvited guests.
But they did not even dare to complain. Instead, they were respectful, bowing and nodding to the visitor, and obeying his orders.
Orders were issued one after another, messengers were sent out one after another, and the number of masked men wearing exquisite brocade and silk clothes became fewer and fewer, and in the end there were only three left.
One of them was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and a thin waist, a slender figure, and a pair of bright eyes.
He stayed in the Qianhu Suo and did not leave.
The captain and deputy captain were always by his side, being very respectful to him.
In the second half of the night, the man still refused to go to sleep.
The two adults were so sleepy that they could hardly open their eyes. In order to perk up a little, they drank a bellyful of tea and did not dare to go to the toilet. They were really miserable.
But these two adults dared neither to get angry nor to speak, and just endured the pain.
I hope this mysterious man in brocade clothes will show mercy and give me some orders to send me out to work quickly, so that I don't have to stay here with him and suffer in fear.
However, the man in brocade clothes seemed unaware of their thoughts and remained silent.
However, a little boy and a young man who were accompanying the man in brocade clothes felt a little bit sorry for them. They exchanged glances with each other several times, trying to plead for the two adults.
However, seeing the expression of the man in brocade clothes, the two men retreated spinelessly again.
After all, before leaving the house, both parties had already agreed on three rules. Whether on the way or at the destination, they both had to listen to the man in brocade clothes.
Anyone who dares not to listen will be sent home immediately!
Who can bear this!
The news that the man in brocade clothes was waiting for seemed to have not come back yet.
Although his face was covered with a black cloth, one could still tell from the small exposed part that his complexion had become a little grim.
The captain and the deputy captain could not help but shiver and sweat profusely.
Finally finished writing...
