Uncle He immediately pulled the bamboo shoots belonging to his grandson He Gulai and moved forward together.
At this time, Ning Xiaotang saw him, walked up slowly and said, "Uncle He, you went to dig bamboo shoots too?"
“In reply to the princess, I dare not, but my family is short of food, so I went up the mountain with my grandson to dig bamboo shoots.
He Liugen was very scared. He was a farmer in Shangshui Village. Logically, he should have done the job of drying crops in Shangshui Village.
"Lingzhi, remember the number of bamboo shoots you gave Uncle He. I'll have him take the copper coins back later."
Everyone was immediately shocked: "How could this He Liugen not be punished by Princess Roujia?"
"Who says not? He is really very lucky."
After weighing the bamboo shoots, He Liugen drank the ginger sugar water tremblingly, but soon fainted on the ground.
"Someone come, He Liugen has fainted!"
Someone among the villagers immediately shouted loudly: "What happened?" Ning Xiaotang immediately ran out to take a look.
He immediately said, "Please ask Doctor Yuan to come over!"
But then, Ning Xiaotang stepped forward and grabbed He Liugen's hand, and took his pulse: "He Liugen has no food in his stomach and fainted from hunger."
He Gulai immediately said with a guilty conscience: "It was at noon that the master gave me that sweet potato to eat. He would rather starve himself, so he fainted now."
Ning Xiaotang immediately ordered, "Banyue, go to the kitchen and bring me a bowl of fried eggs!"
At this moment, several old people wished they could faint, but when they saw Ning Xiaotang taking the pulse, they could only envy her for a while and did not dare to pretend to faint.
But everyone stared at him eagerly. He Liugen ate four poached eggs before he finished drinking the soup.
"Thank you, Princess, for the food!" He Liugen immediately knelt down to express his gratitude profusely.
"Hurry up and get up. Don't kneel down. He Gu will help your grandfather go back to rest. Don't go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots tonight."
Because many people will go to dig bamboo shoots when they have dinner at night, so they can get bamboo shoots again.
He Liugen immediately said tremblingly: "This old servant will be drying bamboo shoots at Shangshui Village tonight and will not be going up the mountain."
At this time, He Gulai supported He Liugen and walked home step by step.
Ning Xiaotang said at this time: "Ling Hu, bring me a bowl of ginger sugar water to drink."
Ning Xiaotang then took a sip of the ginger syrup, which had a hint of sugar in it, and immediately frowned, "This auntie, it seems like she put too little sugar in it. It only has the slightest hint of sugar."
"Quan Yue, go get some candy and put it back on!"
Soon the ginger sugar water was surrounded by villagers waiting to drink it.
When the villagers saw Ning Xiaotang's people put another large bag of brown sugar into the pot and stirred it, the smell of sugar immediately wafted far away.
At this time, He Gulai helped He Liugen sit down in the room and said, "Master, I will take my sister to drink ginger sugar water now, and bring you a bowl later!"
After saying that, he led his younger sister out the door.
He Gulai and He Guyu arrived at Shangshui Village together, but there was not much sugar water left.
He Gulai immediately said, "Let my sister drink first!"
Although He Gulai also wanted to taste the ginger sugar water, his sister had been hungry at home all day and her stomach was probably empty.
He Guyu held a bowl of ginger sugar water and drank half of it. Suddenly, he raised his head from the bowl and said, "Brother, you drink too!"
At this time, Ning Xiaotang came out and said, "Just finish your drink, your brother will have more to drink later!"
Liu Guyu immediately nodded, "Okay!" and then drank the ginger sugar water in the bowl.
After a while, Ling Hu brought out another big pot of ginger sugar water, and He Gulai got a bowl as he wished.
At this time, He Gulai said with a bit of embarrassment: "Can I bring a bowl of ginger sugar water back to my grandfather?"
Ning Xiaotang nodded and said, "Quanyue, give him a bowl!"
Quan Yue immediately handed a bowl to He Gu and watched the two people leave.
As soon as He Gulai and He Guyu, brother and sister, walked out of Shangshui Manor, they met two servants from Xiliu Manor, Liu Mu and Yuan Ke.
Yuan Ke immediately saw the bowl of sugar water in He Gulai's hand.
"Hey, I know you're thirsty, give me this bowl of sugar water!"
He Gulai immediately defended him and said, "No, this is what my grandfather wants to drink!"
"You little brat! It's your blessing that our Yuanke is willing to drink your sweet soup! Hurry up and give it to me!" Liu Mu immediately stepped forward to take the bowl, pushed He Gulai a few meters away, and fell to the ground.
He Gulai's palm was also scratched.
"Brother! Brother!" He Guyu immediately stepped forward and bit Liu Mu's thigh.
"Ah! You little bitch!"
"Bang!" Liu Mu knocked He Guyu unconscious to the ground.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you!" He Gulai immediately yelled at the top of his lungs: "Ah! I'll fight you!"
Ning Xiaotang rushed over quickly when she heard He Guyu's shouting.
"Stop! Liu Mu, do you still want me to throw you into the river?" When Liu Mu saw Ning Xiaotang coming, he was immediately scared and hid behind Yuan Ke.
"Yuan Ke, this little girl is Ning Xiaotang, the Princess Roujia, who was conferred the title by His Majesty. She is a small peasant girl!"
"It's actually her? Hey! Ning Xiaotang, kneel down and kowtow a few times, and I will generously let these brothers and sisters go, otherwise!"
"What else?" Ning Xiaotang glanced into the darkness and saw Ling Hu and others were ready.
"Otherwise I will kill both of them today!"
"Absolutely!" Yuan Ke was so surprised that he was knocked into the river by Ning Xiaotang with a palm.
"Help! Help me!"
"Yuan Ke can't swim!" Liu Mu immediately ran a few steps and jumped into the river to save him.
He Gulai immediately reached out and touched He Guyu's nose, "Sister, wake up!"
At this time, Ning Xiaotang walked over, took his pulse and said, "It's just a temporary fainting. Help him back home and rest well."
He Gulai carried He Guyu back home. At this time, Ning Xiaotang said a few words to Ling Zhi in a low voice.
Ling Zhi immediately dodged and disappeared by the river.
In the middle of the night, Yuan Ke, still determined to be a thief, took a torch to burn He Liugen's house. However, as soon as Yuan Ke and Liu Mu arrived at the door of He Liugen's house, Ling Zhi grabbed him and picked him up.
"Ah~ah! Hey, hero, let me down!" Yuan Ke immediately fell into the river with another quick leap.
Liu Mu and Yuan Ke fell into the water twice that day, and Ling Zhi immediately said, "Do you two dare to take revenge on the He family?"
"I won't dare to do it again, absolutely not!" Yuan Ke knelt by the river, soaked all over.
"You two can't be trusted, Ling Zhi. Hang them on that tree stump as punishment!"
"No, we should kneel down and admit our mistakes to the He family!" Yuan Ke immediately shouted in shock.
Liu Mu immediately said in surprise: "Yuan Ke, you~!"
"It's important to save your life first! I can earn my face back slowly after I have my life back!"
