Chapter 67: What's that smell? It's so stinky! Did I step in shit?
The pheasants in their hands did not die of natural causes, but died of illness. They didn't even eat the prey in the forest, but they picked them up and treated them as treasures.
However, there will be no serious harm if people eat it. They will just have diarrhea for a few days, which is nothing special.
When Jiang Xiuxiu, Jiang Ming and the others saw that Jiang Shan and the others had actually picked up a pheasant, they all looked envious. If they had known earlier, they would have gone to the woods to pick one up as well.
Now that he was beaten by Jiang Nanyuan, his body was in so much pain that he couldn't even walk two steps, let alone pick up the things.
When they finished roasting the chicken, Zhao swallowed her saliva. She couldn't stand the delicious smell. She walked up to Jiang Shan and ordered, "Jiang Shan, give me a chicken leg."
When Jiang Shan heard what Zhao said, she looked up at her.
If Jiang Nanfeng was still a marquis in the past, she would have given in to him, but now, they were all prisoners, and the chicken she had worked so hard to get was not enough for her family to eat, so she didn't want to share it with her.
"Grandma, the chicken I picked up is so small, it's not enough for our family to eat. Please ask Brother Zilong." Her refusal was obvious.
Zhao had never liked their daughter, and now that she was unwilling to give herself to him, she slapped her and turned to look at Jiang Nanzhou, "Second brother, is this how you teach your daughter? I'm her grandmother, so what's wrong with eating a piece of chicken? I'm not asking you for a whole chicken."
Jiang Nanzhou was still afraid of this old lady. Seeing that she had said this, he spoke even though he was reluctant: "Shan'er, how can you talk like that? She is your grandmother. Give her a chicken leg."
Hearing her father say this, even though Jiang Shan was reluctant, she still broke off a piece of chicken leg and handed it over.
Zhao snatched the chicken leg, glared at Jiang Shan and left.
Jiang Shan looked at her back fiercely as she left, "You old woman, eat, eat, eat. I'd better choke you to death."
"Shan'er, give the other chicken leg to your sister-in-law. She's pregnant now and needs more nourishment." The speaker was Jiang Nanzhou's wife, Cai Fang.
Jiang Shan curled her lips and had no choice but to break off the other chicken leg and hand it to her sister-in-law Xu Rong.
Xu Rong took the chicken leg without any hesitation, without even saying thank you, taking it for granted.
In the end, the chicken was divided up, and all that was left for her was a chicken butt.
She cursed everyone in her heart. Although she didn't really want to eat the chicken butt, she always felt that it had an indescribable strange smell.
But it was meat after all, better than nothing, so I forced myself to eat it while suppressing my nausea.
Zhao proudly took the chicken leg she got from Jiang Shan and walked back. Jiang Nanfeng and the others saw how deliciously she ate and they all started to drool.
"Master, I'm hungry. I want to eat meat too." Luo Yurou really couldn't stand it anymore. She had never been hungry in her life. Now her stomach was growling with hunger. She really couldn't eat that white flour bun.
Jiang Nanfeng turned his head and looked at Luo Yurou with pity. She really hadn't enjoyed a good life for a few months with him, and now she had to suffer with him. No, she was hungry, and he had to get her some food.
He looked towards Jiang Nanyuan and Lin Zhixue and saw that they had eaten all the meat. He then glanced towards Jiang Zilong and saw that they still had some meat left.
"Rou'er, wait here. I'll get some meat for you."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards Jiang Zilong, told him the reason for his visit, and after a long discussion, Jiang Zilong gave him some meat.
The meat was not enough for them to eat, so they certainly would not share it with Jiang Nanfeng.
Later, if Jiang Nanfeng hadn't offered him twenty taels of silver, he wouldn't have given him any.
Although he felt bad about spending twenty taels of silver, he no longer felt bad when he thought that it was for Luo Yurou to eat.
Zhao, Jiang Xiuxiu and Jiang Ming saw him bring a small piece of meat and thought it was for them, until they saw him share the meat with Luo Yurou without even looking at them. Zhao felt uncomfortable and always felt that he had forgotten his mother after getting a wife.
Needless to say, Jiang Xiuxiu and Jiang Ming already held a grudge against Luo Yurou in their hearts.
They could only swallow their saliva in the back. Besides them, several other families who did not get to eat meat were in the same situation.
Some people have no meat to eat, while some people have meat but don't eat it. That person is Xiao Yuchen. Yue Li spent one hundred taels of silver to buy him half a chicken, but he refused to eat a single bite.
Seeing that he was so ungrateful, Yue Li ignored him and shared the half chicken with the boiled meat.
It would be a shame not to eat this chicken, it is so delicious.
After being delayed here for so long, Liu Neng saw that it was almost time to rest, so he wiped his mouth and told everyone to leave.
Jiang Nanyuan and the others were well fed and full of energy. Except for Jiang Wenjin, everyone else was in high spirits.
They packed up their things, stood up one by one and followed the team to continue their journey.
Jiang Nanyuan kept an eye on Jiang Wenjin's health from time to time. Seeing that he was coughing all the time and walking very slowly, Jiang Nanyuan thought that he probably couldn't hold on any longer.
Lin Zhixue had also been paying attention to what was happening on his side. Seeing him like this, she stopped and looked over worriedly. When he came forward, she asked a few questions with concern.
Jiang Wenjin didn't want to drag everyone down. When he heard Lin Zhixue's concern, he shook his head and said that he could still hold on.
Lin Jianian and Lin Jiahua also noticed the movements on Jiang Wenjin's side. They also heard Lin Zhixue talk about Jiang Wenjin's past and felt that this little nephew was really pitiful. If he had not been replaced by that bad woman, his body would not have become like this.
Lin Jiahua took the initiative to step forward and squatted in front of Jiang Wenjin. "Wenjin, come up. I'll carry you on my back."
When Jiang Wenjin saw Lin Jiahua's back covered with wounds, his nose felt sore. He was covered with wounds himself, and he still wanted to carry him on his back. How could his health be any better than his own?
"Fifth uncle, no need, I can walk by myself." It's better not to trouble him.
"Hurry up, stop dawdling and waste time. Let's go." They wanted to say something else when Liu Neng's voice came over. If they walked faster at night, they might be able to go to the post station to rest, but at their current pace, they might not be able to reach the station until tomorrow morning.
Now that he saw they were still talking and delaying the progress, he felt angry.
"Stop talking and come up quickly. Do you want to be whipped?" Lin Jianian urged.
Jiang Wenjin didn't want Lin Jianian to be whipped again, so he had to lie on his back. At the same time, he was very sad. He thought he could hold on, but he didn't expect that his broken body couldn't bear it before the day was over.
This little episode passed quickly. Jiang Xiuxiu and the others sneered when they saw Lin Jianian carrying Jiang Wenjin on his back. Look, this sickly guy is such a burden. They still want to take him in. They are as stupid as pigs.
Jiang Xiuxiu was thinking proudly when suddenly a foul smell came over, making her unable to help but dry heave.
What's that smell? It's so stinky. Did I step in shit?
Thinking of this, she subconsciously looked at the soles of her feet, but there was nothing.
"Hey, it stinks? What's so smelly?" Jiang Ming, who was beside her, also smelled the stench. He pinched his nose and looked at Jiang Xiuxiu suspiciously.
