Chapter 462 The Young Master Fell into a Hole
Jiang Nuanzhi had no conscience. Despite Chen Shu's repeated pleas, she immediately changed her clothes, leaving Chen Shu alone to paint a resentful picture of her clothes.
At this moment, she had changed into a neat white dress, casually tied a light blue belt around her waist. She had originally wanted to tie her hair into a high ponytail, but at Lin Chun's insistence, she styled it into a single bun, which was neat and convenient. Jiang Nuanzhi felt a little awkward, but it looked quite nice, so she simply went out like that.
"Madam, how about we have braised pork today? What do you think of this piece of meat?"
As soon as I came downstairs, I saw Dongzang, covered in frost and snow, rush into the house. He grinned and carried a large piece of meat, which looked to weigh at least four or five pounds.
At that moment, her eyes were shining as she looked at herself, as if she had seen braised pork.
Jiang Nuanzhi slapped her forehead in a daze: "Why did you go to buy meat by yourself again? There's still some at home."
Dongcang: "There wasn't much meat left at home, so I added some more. All this meat only cost less than half a tael of silver."
As Dongzang spoke, he stared at Jiang Nuanzhi and swallowed twice.
In fact, ever since Jiang Nuanzhi made braised pork, Dongzang has been obsessed with it, and has brought back large pieces of meat for three days in a row.
Jiang Nuanzhi's lips twitched: "You can't eat this meat today. Eating like this every day is bad for your health. I'll make it for you in a few days."
"Alright then..." Dongzang scratched his head in distress: "I'll put the meat in the kitchen for now."
She spoke with a hint of regret in her voice.
"Let's eat something different today, I guarantee you'll love it."
Upon hearing this, Dongzang's face showed no disappointment whatsoever; instead, he smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly. Then, seeing Linchun coming out of the kitchen, he immediately composed himself, snorted coldly, and slipped into the kitchen.
Lin Chun came out after a round of shopping, carrying a small plate of snacks.
Actually, most people weren't very fond of Linchun's pastries, but she still insisted on making them every day. Sometimes, when she didn't have enough ingredients, she would make up the difference.
Looking at Dongzang and Lin Chun like this, Jiang Nuanzhi sighed inwardly.
The pressure is immense.
If we really want to make money, we can't let them follow us and then have their monthly allowance reduced, can we?
And then there's Li Rong. Jiang Nuanzhi strongly suspects that her clothes are of dubious origin, and she doesn't know how Li Rong got them. She wonders if she should return the money.
With that thought in mind, I went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Jiang Nuanzhi planned to make fish ball noodles. She had made quite a few fish balls during the winter, all handmade, and they tasted extremely fresh. Now that they had been sitting for a while, she was afraid they would spoil if left any longer, so she decided to eat them all today.
Fish ball noodles with two eggs, a pot of warm and sour soup, and some steamed buns.
She was really craving steamed buns with soup inside. And the two fish that the old man brought back yesterday, she was going to make another sauerkraut fish fillet dish.
Without further ado, everyone got to work in the kitchen.
Fortunately, when she built the house, she made the kitchen a bit bigger. Now, the only joy for the whole family is following her into the kitchen.
Even Dongzang and Xinbo, who knew absolutely nothing about kitchen matters, would come in and squat there watching. They'd even help peel garlic or something.
Jiang Nuanzhi also enjoys the atmosphere of cooking together with everyone.
With more people, the work is always easier. In less than half an hour, the fragrant food was served on the table.
Dongzang was initially a little disappointed that he couldn't have braised pork, but when he tasted the dishes made by Jiang Nuanzhi, he put all that disappointment aside.
He ate until his mouth was greasy, and eventually he was so weak he could barely move. He kept shaking his head and sighing, "What kind of life did I live before?"
In fact, Jiang Nuanzhi ate quite a lot. She ate three steamed buns, half a bowl of noodles, and a considerable amount of fish and meat. In the end, her stomach was slightly full, and she truly felt a great deal of guilt. She went outside and practiced a set of boxing techniques.
Jiang Nuanzhi felt that her weight had rebounded somewhat recently, at least twenty pounds. She had even gained a lot of weight around her waist, and her face was rosy and healthy.
She pinched the fat on her stomach and thought, "Another round of dieting is about to begin." But this time it wasn't too difficult; after the New Year, she had eaten well for more than two months, so it was worth it.
After finishing the set of punches, his forehead was slightly sweaty, and he had digested the food a bit. He then let out a soft breath.
Just as he finished his work and was about to go inside, he heard a loud banging on the door from outside.
"Help! Jiang Pangya, help! Open the door quickly, please save my young master!"
Afu's voice came from outside the door. Jiang Nuanzhi frowned and went to open the door, only to see Afu crying with tears and snot streaming down her face: "Jiang Pangya, you have to go and see! Our young master is not doing well! He fell into a hole today... Hurry! Hurry and save our young master!"
When Jiang Nuanzhi heard that she had fallen into the hole, her heart skipped a beat.
"What happened? Did he go up the mountain?"
This is really weird; she's already filled that trap again. Who on earth is responsible?! What a terrible thing to do!
"Up the mountain? No, it's right in front of my house."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt something was amiss: "What kind of hole did it fall into?"
Afu was stunned for a moment: "Oh dear, you should go and see! He fell into an ice hole, that is, into an ice crevice!"
"Thank goodness." Jiang Nuanzhi paused abruptly halfway through her sentence: "Where is she? Was she rescued?"
Afu nodded emphatically, "He's out of the water! He's out of the water! But the young master still has a high fever and is talking in his sleep. Don't ask any more questions, come with me to see him!"
As he spoke, tears streaming down his face, he grabbed Jiang Nuanzhi and tried to run away.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Nuanzhi shook him off: "At least let me carry the medicine box."
Afterwards, Jiang Nuanzhi quickly went back to get her medicine box and followed Afu to Xie Liangchen's house.
When they entered the room, they pieced together the events from Afu's account.
Xie Liangchen was on his day off today and decided to go up the mountain to collect some firewood. However, while reading a book on the way, he fell into an ice hole while crossing the frozen river.
Jiang Nuanzhi looked at her strangely: "Where is the ice hole?"
Afu was so angry that he pounded his chest and stamped his feet: "I don't know which damned person dug an ice hole in the river we usually walk on, and then froze a thin layer of ice on top of it. It's not solid yet, so if the young master steps on it, he will fall in!"
Luckily, I was with him at the time, and Zhang's third brother was also there. He pulled the person out quickly; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Jiang Nuanzhi touched her nose, her heart skipped a beat again, and then she coughed lightly.
Immediately afterwards, she saw Afu staring at her.
She immediately glared at him: "What are you looking at? Your young master is really something, why does he have to look at those books even when he's walking? Is it just a matter of a couple of days?"
Afu, who had initially found Jiang Nuanzhi strange, shrank back after being scolded and dared not utter a sound.
Now, he not only feels terrified at the sight of Jiang Pangya, but he is also afraid that she might treat his young master's illness if she is unhappy.
The next second, Jiang Nuanzhi kicked him in the leg.
"What are you all standing there for? Open the door!"
That idiot Afu actually locked Xie Liangchen in the house.
Xie Liangchen: Hello everyone, I am Da Yuanzhong.
