Chapter 48: Accepting Two Bulls and Five Others
"Goddess Tofu? Why is it called this?"
"I don't know, maybe it was given to mortals by gods?" Yu Meihua said as she looked at Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's about the same idea. Ancient books say that in years of famine, many plants fed a large number of people, and this magical tree is one of them."
"It's really delicious. Do you have more? Give me another serving. I feel energetic after eating it. I was hot just now, but now I'm starting to cool down."
An uncle of the clan looked at himself in surprise. It was not just his illusion.
Yu Banxia smiled secretly in her heart. She put some diluted spiritual spring water in the magic tofu. The villagers' physical strength would be better, so they could work twice as hard.
"That's true, give me another bowl too."
"I want one too. Any more?"
"Yes, Xia girl has made a lot. We will go pick more tomorrow. We still have half of what we picked today."
Zhao said happily while pretending to be good for everyone.
"This is great. I have to have a bowl in the hot summer. It's sour, spicy and refreshing. It's so comfortable."
"Yes, it's delicious." The magical tofu received unanimous praise from everyone.
After everyone finished eating, Erniu and the others helped to return the wooden basin to Yu's house. Then they were about to help pull weeds when they were stopped by Yu Banxia.
She walked to the rocking chair under the tree and sat down. Yu Banyue looked at them standing there, trying not to laugh, and broke three benches and put them down.
"Sit down and talk. My Xia Xia won't eat you."
There were still a few aunts staying at her house to play. They were eating melon seeds and chatting in low voices not far away, looking over at them from time to time.
"Please sit down." Yu Banxia spoke, and several people sat down obediently immediately.
Yu Banyue was a little dumbfounded. This guy was too obedient.
"What are your names? You can't just keep calling you Erniu, Erniu, right?" Yu Banxia spoke.
Erniu quickly stood up and introduced himself: "I am Erniu, my full name is Fan Shouan, and this is Goudan, my cousin, his full name is Fan Shouquan."
"The fat one is Zhang Fugui, the short one is Zhu Xiang, and the big stupid guy is Cao Dabao."
Yu Banxia looked at them one by one and memorized them in her mind.
Then he said, "Have you told your family?"
"I said it, I said it, my mother said as long as I don't go out and mess around, I will come to the village to help."
"My mother said so too."
"Us too." Several people spoke at once.
Yu Banxia frowned slightly, and the five people were instantly silent.
"As long as you listen, I promise you won't regret it. I will definitely teach you swordsmanship if I say so, but I also have requirements."
"Whatever you request, just tell us and we will agree to it," the five people said in unison.
Yu Banxia couldn't help but laugh. These people were quite interesting. "I am training you, so I need you to promise to work for me for five years and not betray me during these five years."
"If I discover your betrayal, I will destroy your martial arts and punish you."
"Miss Yu, rest assured. The five of us swear to heaven that if we betray you and fail to live up to your training, we will be struck by lightning that day and die a miserable death."
Xiaobai said that the oath had come true, and Yu Banxia smiled and said, "Don't be so serious. I believe in you. Let's make a small bet today. Five years later, you won't be willing to leave."
"As long as you follow my lead and work hard, I will definitely give you a bright future!"
"We are willing to follow Miss Yu!" A flame ignited in the hearts of the five people. They were willing to follow her. They didn't know why, but they had a feeling that what she said would come true.
Yu Banxia raised the corner of her mouth slightly, then stood up and walked back and forth under the jujube tree.
"Xia Xia, what's wrong?" Zhao asked curiously.
They had just seen what happened here. Yu Banxia was very impressed by the five young men who were so obedient that she didn't dare to say anything even after they looked at her.
The little girl really has some powerful skills. From what they saw just now, she looked like a daughter of a noble family being lectured.
I really hope that their daughter can look like this in the future. It is really beautiful, as if she is radiating radiance.
"I'm thinking about where to arrange for them to rest. My house can't accommodate them anymore." Yu Banxia said with some distress.
"Hey, it's not a big deal. My family is full of boys, and there is an empty room. It's hot, so we can sleep on the floor."
"It won't be long before the workshop is up and running, so we'll have a place to sleep, right?" said an aunt named An Xiufen.
Yu Banxia felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was the one who recruited the people, and now she was bothering them.
"Will this be too much trouble for Auntie?"
"What's the trouble? You're too polite." Since An Xiufen said this, Yu Banxia no longer refused.
Yu Banxia said, "Thank you, Auntie. They eat at my house every day and come back to your house to rest at night."
"Okay." An Xiufen smiled cheerfully.
"Thank you, auntie." Erniu and the others also hurriedly bowed to express their gratitude, looking quite sincere.
As the sun sets, fragrance begins to waft from the Yu family's kitchen. Roe deer and a group of rabbits are sleeping in the barn.
Erniu and his five friends went to pull weeds, Wu Zhuxiang and others were busy in the kitchen, and Yu Banxia had nothing to do, so she lay in a rocking chair and concentrated her wood-based abilities.
As the supernatural power condensed, the leaves on the jujube tree became greener, the surrounding flowers and plants seemed to have life, and the roses on the fence bloomed desperately.
The whole courtyard was filled with a fresh fragrance, which could be smelled by everyone working in the kitchen.
The fragrance of the flowers directly overwhelmed the aroma of the meat. Yu Banyue walked out curiously to take a look, and saw that the yard was thriving.
"Mom, sister-in-law, come and see." Yu Banyue greeted the two of them.
Fan Cuilan and Wu Zhuxiang also quietly walked to the kitchen door and looked into the yard.
He saw his daughter emitting a faint green glow, and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees were swaying vibrantly in the breeze.
She seemed like a forest fairy sleeping among the flowers and plants, making it impossible to take your eyes off her.
This scene disappeared instantly when the sound of the ox cart was heard, but the flowers and plants still looked full of vitality.
But the light on Yu Banxia faded away. The three of them looked at each other, then walked to the gate of the yard and looked outside.
But it was the eldest daughter and son-in-law who came back, and the ox cart was loaded with things.
But Zhang Quangui had a wound on his face, and Yu Bandao didn’t look very good either.
"What happened? Did they have a fight at home?" Fan Cuilan ran out quickly and looked her daughter up and down.
Yu Bandao shook her head and said that she was fine and that her husband had stopped her.
"What happened?" Fan Cuilan looked at her son-in-law again. His face and neck were covered with wounds.
"Mom, let my brother-in-law and eldest sister come back first." Yu Banxia also came over.
Fan Cuilan nodded quickly, Wu Zhuxiang ran back to the kitchen to check the pot, and Yu Banyue stepped forward to help move things into the house.
