Chapter 174: To save Jintang's life
Sonning used these to make dinner.
Stir-fry the bacon with green peppers and dried red peppers.
Chop the air-dried chicken into small pieces, soak it in water for a while, add seasonings and water, simmer over low heat, and finally add potatoes and homemade vermicelli, and fill a large pot with fragrant soup.
The bok choy in the space is tender and juicy. Cut it into shreds, add shredded carrots, shredded green onions, minced garlic, seasonings, and a splash of oil, and it becomes a small cold dish that goes well with rice.
Scrambled eggs with chopped green onions.
I also made a pot of soup with the fish balls that we often eat at home and sprinkled a handful of coriander on it.
Steam a sweet glutinous pumpkin and cut it into petals.
Mo Cuiyu used the lard that Hua Buyan brought with her to make the filling and made a lot of wild vegetable pancakes. There was no room on the table, so she simply took the bedding from the kang and placed it on the mat.
The guards ate outside, each receiving a bowl of meatball soup and enough sesame cakes.
Hua Buyan hadn't eaten much for several days. He didn't stay for a bite of food, but just wanted to stay with the Huo family for a while longer.
But the aroma that filled the table instantly whetted my appetite.
I couldn't help but lick my dry and sore lips.
"Drink some meatball soup first. Look how thin you are. It's obviously us who were exiled."
Huo Jingya muttered as she served him a bowl of soup.
The old lady scolded her lightly.
Then he said to Hua Buyan, who was sitting so properly and solemnly that it was a bit too much, "Prince, eat. There is food at home. Take some cakes with you when you leave."
"Yes, aunt."
The old lady had changed the way she addressed him, but he still called her aunt as before, his voice full of respect.
There is no one else in the whole capital who has such a pure heart.
The old lady looked at Huo Jingya and sighed in her heart.
Hua Buyan never cared about food, and since he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he had eaten everything in the capital.
Xiaoyu thought he would have no appetite again and would just eat quickly.
But unexpectedly, he drank the whole bowl of soup in one breath and ate half a bowl of meatballs in it.
There are also scrambled eggs, stewed potatoes, and even the most vegetarian shredded cabbage.
Is this because Miss Huo has a better appetite?
But I’ve never eaten like this before!
Anyway, as long as it's edible.
Xiaoyu went outside with peace of mind.
The guards ate the wild vegetable pancakes in big mouthfuls, eating them quite voraciously.
Isn't it just that I had a bitter taste in my mouth on the way? Why act so useless!
"Like a starving ghost reincarnated!"
"Xiao Yu, what kind of wild vegetables and meatballs are these? Why can't we find them in the capital? Isn't it said that things grown in Liangzhou are bitter and astringent?"
"You guys have been on the road for so long that you have problems with your mouth!"
Xiaoyu said this and took a sip of soup.
Mom, what kind of soup is this?
At the dinner table, the Huo family members didn't talk as usual because Hua Buyan was there.
Hua Buyan didn't realize anything. Who was talking at the dinner table?
But the Huo family exiled themselves and no longer cared about those rules.
The dinner table is usually very lively.
Now I feel uncomfortable.
So Sang Ning broke the silence and asked about the situation in the shop today.
Li Yuzhi said, "Sister-in-law, there are a lot more people outside the shop today, and they're all staring at the food. It's scary.
When we came back, there was another person who tried to steal the money, but Jingya kicked him over."
"She wasn't kicked over. He just didn't expect the young lady knew kung fu. He was startled and fell over because he couldn't stand steadily. If I hadn't arrived in time, the man would have pounced on her." Yan Meng said frankly again.
Huo Jingya hummed at him softly.
Sang Ning frowned. It seemed that the situation was getting worse and worse. The shop could no longer be opened, so he decided to close it first.
Only then did Hua Buyan realize that they actually opened a snack shop.
He glanced at Huo Jingya's hand out of the corner of his eye.
A lot rougher.
She had never cooked before, but now she had to earn a living by herself...
Hua Buyan felt uncomfortable in his heart. He lowered his head and ate bite by bite, trying to suppress the bad mood.
If you are not careful, you will eat too much.
I burped again accidentally.
Only then did he realize his own loss of composure, and quickly put down his chopsticks, his face red all the way to his neck.
Sang Ning brought another bowl of washed large fresh dates, which were also grown in the space.
Jujube trees grow slower than crops, and the saplings are only one meter tall. When they first bore fruit, I only picked a bowlful.
She gave some to Jintang and brought the rest to Hua Buyan.
"Prince, eat some dates."
Hua Buyan shook his head.
This doesn’t look like much, so I’ll give it to my child.
He glanced at Sang Ning.
He judges people based on his own feelings, not on complicated relationships.
He felt that Sang Ning was a good person, so he did not have the preconceived prejudices that others had.
"Thank you for the treat."
She cooks delicious food.
It’s good that Brother Changan has her taking care of him.
It was getting late, and it was time for him to leave.
Li Yuzhi had already filled their water bags with warm spiritual spring water.
Sanning boiled thirty large space eggs that looked like goose eggs.
I don’t dare to cook too much for fear of it going bad. I should be able to finish these in three or four days.
I also washed a few fat radishes so that I could eat them raw on the road.
Including the wild vegetable pancakes, there were several bags full.
The whole family walked them to the door.
Hua Buyan looked at Huo Jingya who was hiding behind the old lady again, and his eyes were not as bright as when he first arrived.
"Go back and don't come here again." Huo Changan whispered.
He treated Hua Muyu with the same care he would give his younger brother.
Logically speaking, the two people's personalities are so different that they shouldn't be able to be friends.
But Hua Buyan fell in love with Huo Jingya.
I don't know when, but he started following behind him and Shen Ye.
At first, the two of them teased him all day long, but later they couldn't bear it anymore and protected him like a younger brother.
Hua Buyan is very smart, but he is too pure-hearted. The prince is not on good terms with the Kangyuan Palace. If he is targeted by Sang Xiuqi and his gang, it will be dangerous.
"What do you want me to do?" Hua Buyan asked.
"No need. Don't do anything, and don't investigate anything anymore. Xiao Yanzi, stay in the capital. I will return to the capital!"
"Leave two, guards."
"I won't stay, get out of here! If you don't leave, I'll let the dogs bite you!" Huo Changan said viciously.
Xiaoyu looked at the two wolfhounds.
Although they were ugly and had broken legs, they seemed to understand what people said. As soon as Huo Changan finished speaking, one of them bared his teeth and the other stood up straight.
It doesn't seem like it's going to bite, it's more like it's going to scare you.
"Prince, let's go."
They came here secretly without telling the Grand Princess and the Prince, and they don’t know how they will be punished when they return!
If something happens on the way, it will be even more terrible!
Hua Buyan reached out and touched his waist, tore something off, and quickly walked to Jintang.
He stuffed the thing into Jintang's hand.
“Uncle Yan, Jintang can’t take it.”
Jintang knew what it was as soon as he touched it.
It is a jade pendant representing Uncle Yan’s identity.
He had this thing before. Every young master of a big family had one, and it must never be thrown away or given to anyone.
If it is found in the hands of the guilty minister, Uncle Yan will be implicated.
But Hua Buyan had already quickly gotten into the carriage.
Jintang wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Huo Changan.
"Let your fourth aunt keep it."
This was Hua Buyan's way of saving Jintang's life.
To outsiders, he was already disabled and not a concern. If anyone wanted to deal with the Huo family, they would definitely target Chao Jintang, the only descendant.
Xiao Yanzi, who is as simple and unpolished as a gem, can actually think of these things.
In the night, there were waves of light in Huo Changan's eyes.
The Huo family stood outside the door, listening to the sound of the carriage gradually fade away, until the lights on the carriage disappeared...
