Chapter 7 It turns out that adults like black



All the food was distributed, and the golden-armored soldiers said goodbye and left, then disappeared in an unnoticed place.

Xu Xiaoyi was reluctant to part with the golden armor. He really wanted to own an army like this. It would make him feel safer and he wouldn't have to worry about being beaten for showing off.

At this time, the crowd in front of the county magistrate's mansion had all dispersed and gone home. The old man and the young man then stepped forward and knelt down to thank Xu Xiaoyi.

"Why are you kneeling to me?"

"Thank you for saving my life! I have no way to repay you!" the young man shouted.

Xu Xiaoyi looked at the person in front of him and saw that it was Xi Xiao. According to the rules, the more important the person, the higher the shock points. He just gave me 100 points, so this Xi Xiao is very important to me?

"What are you talking about? How can there be no return? Just be my slave for the rest of your life!" Xu Xiaoyi squatted down and patted Xi Xiao's shoulder! He said as if it was a matter of course:

【Xixiao's shocking reward*100】

[Su Yanyue's shocking reward*100]

【Xiliangkang's shocking reward*20】

"Sir, you really love to joke around! Please stop teasing me." Xi Liangkang said:

At this moment, Xu Xiaoyi seemed to have not heard the old man's words. He looked around. Su Yanyue? Where is she? Why can't I see her?

"Old man, your name is Xi Liangkang?" Xu Xiaoyi asked:

"Exactly! Sir! You actually know my name!"

"Well...you two will come to the County Magistrate's Mansion tomorrow to help me. I will give you corresponding positions and the salary will not be less than yours. 200 catties of fine rice, 20 catties of pickled mustard greens, and 10 taels of silver per month. How about it? Are you willing?"

"Sir, thank you for your consideration, but everyone has their own..."

Xi Xiao was about to refuse when Xi Liangkang immediately punched him in the head!

"Shut up, you rebellious son! My Lord, I've made up my mind about my son and me! I'll be here on time tomorrow!"

"Father, didn't you say that the most important things in life are freedom and passion?"

"My grandson and daughter-in-law are still starving at home! They can't even get enough to eat, and yet they're free! If you mention it again, I'll cripple your third leg! Anyway, I already have a grandson."

200 jin of fine rice! And 10 taels of silver. I'll be able to turn things around in a few months. And from what I've observed, this county magistrate isn't a bad guy. There's a future ahead of me following him!

"I was wrong, Dad." Xi Xiao felt a chill in his crotch and immediately apologized.

........

After discussing with the Xi family father and son, I've managed to keep Xi Xiao. How can he help me? And where is Su Yanyue? She should be nearby!

Forget it, I won’t look for her anymore. It’s getting dark, let’s eat first.

Just as Xu Xiaoyi turned around and was about to return home, he found a man wrapped in black cloth in front of the door. He was holding the fine rice that had just been distributed, also wrapped in black cloth. His face and exposed palms were extremely black.

Could there be an African here too? Could it be Su Yanyue?

"What's your name?"

"..........Xiaoyue"

A soft voice came after a moment of hesitation, and Xu Xiaoyi confirmed that she was Su Yanyue. He had been looking for her for a long time, and she was right in his house. Why didn't he notice her when he first arrived?

"What are you doing here?"

"I have no home and have been living here. I am leaving now."

"Is that so? Then you can continue to live here."

"You won't chase me away?" Su Yanyue looked at the man in front of her. Ever since she started to escape, no one was willing to accept her. Without exception, they all chased her away and told her to get away. Some even regarded her as a disaster.

"Do you want me to drive you away?" Xu Xiaoyi asked.

"No... don't chase me away..." Su Yanyue seemed to remember something when she heard Xu Xiaoyi's words. Her eyes instantly turned red and she burst into tears.

Xu Xiaoyi touched her head.

"I won't chase you away. Let's prepare to eat together."

Xu Xiaoyi looked at the crying black girl in front of him and showed an evil smile.

What a joke! How could I possibly let you go when I haven't even figured out your worth? Once I know your talents, I'll show you what it's like to be a farmer in the 21st century.

【brute】

???

.........

Xu Xiaoyi wanted to cook but found that there were no pots, no bowls, and no water in the county magistrate's mansion. He wondered how Su Yanyue was living.

Xu Xiaoyi went to the county store and exchanged twenty kilograms of fine rice for a large vat, a pot and some bowls. He then went to the almost dried-up well to fetch some water and brought it back home to start cooking porridge. Su Yanyue, wrapped in black cloth, sat by the fire, wondering what he was thinking.

Xu Xiaoyi handed a bowl of porridge to Su Yanyue, who was wrapped in black cloth, and took out a bowl and filled it with some pickled mustard greens.

Su Yanyue looked at the white porridge in the bowl and couldn't help being a little dazed. Then she poured a mouthful into her mouth, her eyes shining with gold. The refined rice porridge was sweet and delicious. The aroma of rice filled her mouth and it was even better than the refined rice she had eaten before.

“Try this”

Xu Xiaoyi pointed at the pickled mustard greens in the bowl. Su Yanyue expertly picked one up with her chopsticks and took a bite. What is this? It's so delicious! It's crispy and tender, with a fresh, savory, and salty flavor. Soon, Su Yanyue finished the entire bowl of porridge, and Xu Xiaoyi served her another bowl after another.

How long had she been hungry? Xu Xiaoyi hadn't eaten yet, and most of the porridge in the pot had been consumed. Su Yanyue finally realized what was happening and was at a loss. She had actually eaten so much.

Xu Xiaoyi smiled and said, "It's okay. This is enough for me. It's good for you to eat more. It will help you grow."

Su Yanyue looked at the other man. How could this county magistrate be so different from the "hot temper" that others described? He seemed so gentle and reliable.
