Chapter 106: Meeting the Jiang Brothers and Sisters Again]
Seeing the three little guys looking at him eagerly, Chen Fenghe walked over without thinking and said, "Shopkeeper, I want five... no, ten pancakes!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he thought, this is a big customer! One purchase costs fifty coins!
He immediately smiled happily and said, "Okay! Sir, please wait a moment! I'll wrap it for you right away!"
As he spoke, he wrapped ten pancakes in coarse paper and handed them to Chen Fenghe.
Chen Fenghe paid the money and first gave one to each of the three little ones. Then she gave one to Qin Mengyue and said, "Mom, you can have one too."
Qin Mengyue took it and took a bite. The aroma of sesame and the meat filling instantly spread in her mouth. It was extremely delicious.
"It's so delicious. Feng He, thank you so much..."
If Chen Fenghe hadn't shot three wild boars with arrows, how could they have gotten the three taels of silver?
But how long can three taels of silver last...
As if seeing through Qin Mengyue's thoughts, Chen Fenghe leaned over and whispered, "Mother, you don't have to worry about money. Before General Luo left, he gave me a silver note worth two hundred taels of silver. Every time I arrived at a place, I secretly went to the silver shop to exchange some silver. It's enough for us to spend along the way."
Before Luo Yan left, he did want to leave some money for her, but she evaded the question by saying that if he gave her too much, it would be bad if the officials found out. Therefore, she only asked for ten taels of silver.
After all, Luo Yan has to support a large group of brothers and find other former subordinates of the prince. He needs much more money than her. Besides, she has money in her space and doesn't need the money in Luo Yan's hands.
The reason why I told Qin Mengyue that there were two hundred taels of silver was mainly to make it convenient for her to take money out of the space in the future.
Qin Mengyue was surprised at first, then moved, and sighed: "General Luo is truly a loyal and good minister."
Now, I am no longer worried.
Chen Fenghe also took out a pancake and ate it, then casually put the remaining five into the space.
Although Xiao Yunshuo and Yuan Xu should not be short of food, when I deliver the medicine to him in the evening, I will just give it to them as a comfort gift.
At this moment, a group of ragged people suddenly came towards them. One of the girls said crisply, "Brother! There are some sesame cakes for sale here. Let's buy some!"
The man being called 'brother' listened and gently scolded him, "Shut up! The money we have is for Dad's medicine! How can we spare money for sesame cakes?"
Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but pout and mutter, "Brother, you're so mean to me! I...I want to buy sesame cakes, not for myself, but...to take them back to Dad..."
The man was hesitant for a moment after hearing this and said, "Let's buy the medicine first and see how much money we have left! The sesame seed buns are five cents each, and the multi-grain steamed buns are two cents each. Naturally, it's more cost-effective to buy the multi-grain steamed buns. We don't have much money on us, so it's better not to waste it."
The girl couldn't help but mutter, "That multi-grain steamed bun... is so hard that it's almost scratching my throat and making it bleed..."
However, she didn't dare to say anything more and just followed the man.
Chen Fenghe didn't pay much attention to the brother and sister at first. Suddenly, the girl saw Chen Fenghe and pointed at her and asked, "Brother! Look! Isn't that the exiled person we met last time in Daming Prefecture? I'll go over and ask..."
Seeing this, the man looked up and his cheeks turned red instantly. Isn't this the pretty and beautiful girl he met in the drugstore last time?
"Xue Rou, wait..." He tried to call his sister, but the girl had already rushed in front of Chen Fenghe.
It turned out that this pair of siblings were Jiang Guizhou and Jiang Xueruo, the siblings we had met before.
"Hey! You...wait a minute! I want to ask you something!" Jiang Xueruo said.
Chen Fenghe raised his eyes to look at her, then asked coldly: "Who are you?"
When asking someone about something, why are you so rude?
Jiang Xueruo was not recognized and was somewhat annoyed, but she suppressed her anger and said, "I...we met in Daming Mansion! Have you seen my brother Shuo along the way...have you seen the man who traveled with us in Daming Mansion last time?"
After they met the woman in Daming Prefecture, Brother Shuo left a short letter that night without saying goodbye. The letter only said that he was going north and that the people of Jiangjia Village were on different roads, so they had to go their separate ways.
These exiles were also heading north, so they might have seen Brother Shuo on the way.
After Jiang Xueruo said this, Chen Fenghe remembered that she was the girl who thought that the whole world should give way to her?
I heard from Xiao Yunshuo that they were planning to go south, right? Why did they go north instead?
Could it be that he is here to chase Xiao Yunshuo?
"I'm sorry, I've met a lot of people in Daming Prefecture, and I really can't remember who you are." Chen Fenghe said lightly.
At this time, Jiang Guizhou also came over, pulled his sister back, and apologized: "I'm sorry, my sister offended this lady..."
Jiang Xueruo was so angry that her mouth was almost twisted: "Brother! She must be pretending not to know us. She must know where Brother Shuo is..."
For some reason, she felt that the woman in front of her knew...
Chen Fenghe didn't even look at her and continued to pretend not to know her. She nodded to Jiang Guizhou and said, "It's okay."
Not to mention that Jiang Shuo was most likely the Crown Prince Xiao Yunshuo. Telling them his whereabouts might endanger Xiao Yunshuo's safety. Even if Jiang Shuo was not the Crown Prince, she had no obligation to tell them.
After Chen Fenghe finished speaking, she walked around them and continued forward. She happened to see a peddler on the side of the road who was selling masks and other things on the shelf.
Chen Fenghe stopped and bought three small and two large masks.
The exiles soon settled down in an inn in the town.
Everyone lived in a dormitory, so Chen Fenghe, Qin Mengyue and the others naturally spent extra money to get a single room.
Xiao Yunshuo and Yuan Xu also waited until the exile team was settled before they took advantage of the situation and checked into the same inn.
Chen Fenghe borrowed the inn's kitchen as usual.
There have been so many problems on the road these days that I haven't been able to eat properly.
Chen Fenghe took out an old hen, a piece of pork belly, a few eggs, some dried beans, sweet potatoes, garlic sprouts, some spinach, white radish, mushrooms, etc. from the space.
After cleaning the old hen, she put it directly into a ceramic pot to make chicken soup. She also secretly threw sliced ginseng into the chicken soup. After boiling it for half an hour, she added mushrooms and chopped white radish.
Cut the pork belly into thin slices, fry it in oil first, then put it in a bowl, put dried beans and sweet potatoes soaked in warm water on it, add seasonings, and steam it in a steamer.
Cut the remaining piece of meat into thin slices, boil it in water, then remove it and stir-fry it in a wok to release the fat. Pour the chopped garlic sprouts into the wok and add the seasonings such as fermented black bean paste. In a short while, a dish of delicious, slightly spicy twice-cooked pork is ready. Finally, stir-fry some spinach and eggs.
While cooking and making soup, the steamed buns and millet porridge are also ready.
Chen Fenghe took the steaming bowl out of the steamer and placed it on a plate, and that was the braised pork.
The three little guys couldn't help drooling when they saw the mushroom and radish chicken soup, braised pork with soy sauce, twice-cooked pork, scrambled eggs with spinach, as well as the white and soft steamed buns and millet porridge on the table.
Chen Fenghe still kept a portion for the official, and also set aside another portion and temporarily put it in the space.
After delivering the official's portion, the family gathered around the table and began to feast.
After eating and washing up, Chen Fenghe saw that they had rested, then she secretly left the room and knocked on the door of the room where Xiao Yunshuo and the others lived.
