Chapter 22 Return to the Team
After falling from such a height and landing on a pile of rocks, Liang Jiamin didn't think much about it and said to the official beside him, "Register, Jiang, the third branch of the Lu family, died after falling off a cliff."
Since the person had been found, the officers did not delay and packed up their things and went back.
In addition to the few dying wolves that Lu Shiyan found, several officers also caught pheasants.
Jiang Tangtang quietly took out some fruits from the space and pretended that she picked them on the road.
Su and Lu Zhixi stood at the intersection, looking around. Seeing Lu Shiyan come back safely, Su ran over, choking up with sobs. She looked Lu Shiyan up and down and said, "Yan'er, are you okay? You're finally back! I was so worried!"
"Brother, wuwuwu...you scared me to death..." Lu Zhixi limped over and hugged Lu Shiyan.
"Brother, I will listen to you and practice kung fu well in the future!" Although Lu Shili did not burst into tears like his mother and sister, he was greatly relieved that his brother was fine, and his heart was very excited.
Jiang Tangtang, who was completely forgotten by the Lu family, shrugged. Forget it, the original owner was not well-liked before, and she didn't see her.
She went to see her little sweetie!
Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan returned safely, causing a sensation in the post station.
Even the prisoners who had conflicts with Jiang Tangtang in the past came over to ask Jiang Tangtang what happened to them yesterday, and how they didn't get hurt at all after falling from such a high cliff.
Chen hid in the crowd, looking at Jiang Tangtang with resentment, hating God for being blind and not letting this fat woman who ate all her own food fall to her death.
Facing Chen's resentful gaze, Jiang Tangtang deliberately said, "We were lucky. We fell into the river, so we're fine. Everyone, make way. I have to go make food. I picked up a few wolves on the way back."
At this time, people also noticed the wolf she was dragging in her hand.
Yesterday, everyone was afraid of being killed by wolves, so they were only concerned about escaping. Naturally, they didn't think of picking up the killed wolves to eat.
Seeing the wolf in Jiang Tangtang's hand today, many people regretted it. If they had known that Su asked them to go find someone yesterday, they would have gone.
Not only can he sell the Lu family's eldest house, but he might even be able to pick up a wolf and eat it.
In the past, they might have looked down on wolf meat, preferring more valuable prey like wild deer and goats. But now, after being exiled for so long and with nothing to eat, how could they still dislike wolf meat?
Chen swallowed hard, not caring about her face, and walked over with a thick face.
"This wolf is so big, there are only a few of you, and you can't eat it all. Why don't you give us half of it, niece-in-law?"
"Didn't you tell me yesterday when my mother-in-law asked you to help find someone? We've separated and we're no longer related. Why are you trying to claim kinship now?"
Jiang Tangtang's eyes fell on the wound on her face and said, "Also, next time you encounter danger, my husband will not save you. Otherwise, if we save you, you will blame us."
When Chen saw Lu Shiyan looking at her coldly from a distance, she felt a chill in her heart and regretted the words she had said last night in order to avoid looking for someone.
But this big black bear just came back and hasn’t spoken to Su yet, so how could she know what she said last night?
Chen's eyes moved and she saw several officials who came back with Jiang Tangtang and the others, and she soon got the answer.
Jiang Tangtang always tries to please the officials. Today, it was Lord Liang who personally went to look for her. It must be them who said it.
Not only did the police officer think they were biased and went to look for them at the foot of the cliff, but he also wanted to tell that fat woman about the argument they had last night.
Chen couldn't help but feel angry again. These officials were too partial. Isn't it just cooking? What's so great about it?
After getting angry at Chen, Jiang Tangtang went to the room to check on the three children first.
The children all looked as listless as wilted flowers.
Seeing the little guy she had finally managed to fatten up turn into a shriveled bean sprout again, Jiang Tangtang sighed in her heart.
She took out the small tomatoes and grapes from her bag and said, "Look, these are the wild fruits that Mom picked on the road. Come and have a taste."
The grapes in the field are sweeter than when I first came here.
What surprised Jiang Tangtang even more was that no matter how ripe the fruits in the field were, they would not be damaged as long as they were not picked.
Jiang Tangtang suspected that these places might not be ordinary places after she traveled through time. Perhaps they were like the novels she had read before, with some kind of spiritual energy.
Otherwise, things won't go bad when they ripen in the fields, and they taste ten times better than before. This is really inexplicable.
The children were so sick that they had no appetite, but when they saw the red tomatoes and grapes as big as thumbs, their mouths immediately began to water.
"Thank you, Mom!" Lu Tiantian was as sweet as usual.
Lu Jingcheng asked nervously, "Where's Dad?"
As he was talking, Lu Shiyan walked in. The little fellow, who had a stern face just now, immediately pursed his lips when he saw his father. Although his eyes were red, he tried hard not to let the tears fall.
Jiang Tangtang wanted to cry after seeing this. In order to avoid being embarrassed in front of the child, she handed the fruit to Lu Shiyan and quickly left the room.
It took her a while to calm down after leaving the room and she went to the small kitchen of the inn.
Several officers set out before dawn to look for them at the place where the incident happened yesterday. Jiang Tangtang was grateful and decided to further build a good relationship with them.
So I planned to cook all the wolf meat and share it with the officials.
Among the wolves brought back today, two had multiple sword wounds on their bodies, and their wolf skins were completely damaged.
These two Jiang Tangtangs were picked up separately, and he planned not to skin them. He would remove the hair like slaughtering pigs, and then cut open their stomachs and remove the internal organs.
While he was busy, Lu Shiyan walked in.
Although he had been helping her cook since he asked the officials to improve the food in the Lu family's main house, Jiang Tangtang was still a little surprised to see him coming.
After all, they had just experienced life and death last night. Whether it was his two sons, his mother, or his younger brothers and sisters, they all seemed to need his comfort.
Jiang Tangtang thought about it and asked the question in her heart, "Why don't you spend more time with the children?"
Lu Shiyan said, "I heard Lord Liang say that he would continue his journey after lunch. I'm afraid you might be too busy. Is there anything I can help you with?"
If the prisoner fails to reach the place of exile within the specified time, not only the prisoner will be punished, but also the accompanying officials will be punished.
Jiang Tangtang wasn't surprised at all by the decision to leave that afternoon. She handed the remaining wolves to Lu Shiyan. After she finished with the two wolves, she quickly blanched them, then secretly took out some spices and stewed them with the radishes from the post station.
Two wolves, plus more than twenty large radishes, made two full pots of stew, enough for lunch.
Jiang Tangtang didn't plan to eat the remaining wolves all at once.
She cut a piece of good meat to make meat porridge for the children, and pickled the rest with salt, planning to use part of it to make braised meat and the other part to make smoked meat when she rested at night.
