Chapter 611: Even Dogs Won’t Eat This
Xue frowned and wanted to say something, but Ling Cang spoke first, "Mother, since you are having a vegetarian meal today, you don't have to sit at the same table with us."
After saying that, he shouted again: "Come here, send the old lady's dishes to the flower hall."
Xue and Su Nuan looked at each other, both of them had the urge to overturn the table.
The old lady stood up and said, "Humph, you ordinary people naturally can't eat vegetarian food with me, an old lady. Let's go."
Su Nuan could only stand up and support the old lady. Before leaving, Xue gave Ling Cang a fierce look.
Ling Yun's fists were clenched tightly, and he stared at Ling Cang with strange and cold eyes.
He didn't understand why his elder brother was acting so abnormally today.
Ling Cang seemed to see that he was on the verge of exploding, so he raised his hand and picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and gave it to him.
Then he said earnestly: "Xiaoyun, you will have to go up the mountain more often in the future, otherwise Lord Wang and the others will suffer with us."
Ling Yun was stunned, and after thinking about it for eighteen times, he still couldn't figure out what this meant.
Although people in the north don’t eat meat every day and won’t go hungry, where does the hardship come from?
He didn't say anything, but with a cold face, he picked up the meat from the bowl and put it into his mouth...
Ling Yun almost vomited when the meat was bitten open, but he swallowed it without changing his expression.
An expression of enjoyment still appeared on his face. "Brother, I understand. People here don't have enough meat to eat, and they don't have enough food to eat. They don't have the energy to work."
"I'll definitely go to the mountains more often in the future. If that doesn't work, I'll catch some fish to eat."
Seeing that his brother hadn't exposed him, Ling Cang said, "Everyone, grab your chopsticks. All the delicious food from the North is here. You never know when you'll be able to eat it again."
Seeing that Ling Yun looked very enjoyable, Zhao Jingcheng picked up a large piece of meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
He hadn't eaten anything good on the way here, and the worms in his stomach were about to rebel.
But once you bite into the meat... your mouth is filled with a fishy smell that makes it impossible to swallow.
But he couldn't do something as shameful as vomiting at the dinner table. He was so disgusted that tears came to his eyes.
Lord Wang said in surprise, "Is it really that delicious? You seem so moved that tears are flowing from your eyes."
Mu Fengjiao was also very curious, and she reached out her chopsticks at the same time as Lord Wang...
"vomit……"
"vomit……"
Mu Fengjiao and Lord Wang vomited at the same time. Zhao Jingcheng couldn't bear it anymore and joined the vomiting team. The three of them instantly lost their appetite for a month.
Ling Cang said coldly, "The north is cold and miserable, and the people can't even eat meat, yet you are wasting food here."
"Forget it, from now on you can eat multi-grain porridge with us."
"Come here, take the food away and replace it with multi-grain porridge."
The people waiting outside the door immediately went into the house and took the dishes out in food boxes. After they went out, they took the dishes straight into the hall, but the plate of meat was fed to the dog.
The gatekeeper, Da Huang, thought it was something delicious and took a bite...
"vomit……"
Even dogs won’t eat it.
Ling Yun inside the room sighed and said in a feigned sadness, "It seems the food in the north is not to your liking."
"A while ago, a sacrifice was held in the border town of the Northern Snow Country, and a lot of people were thrown into the river. I guess the fish have fattened up. I'm going to go catch some fish."
Ling Cang said calmly, "Go ahead, fish is meat too."
However, the conversation between the two brothers made the people in the room vomit more violently. Ling Yun ran away in a hurry, and only Ling Cang sat there calmly.
At this moment, Su Nuan, who was sitting in the flower hall, found that the dishes brought by the helpers were all on the big table but not touched.
A light flashed through her mind, and she guessed: "Could it be that there is something wrong with the plate of meat?"
Xue's expression softened considerably after hearing this. She pondered for a moment and then said, "Eighty percent."
The old lady laughed and said, "You don't know, a big rat got into the kitchen last night, and while chasing it, it crawled into the stove."
"The rat was half-cooked and still in the slop bucket. Today's dish of meat..."
These words happened to be heard by Ling Yun who had just entered the room. He turned pale and ran away, and no one knew where he went to vomit.
Su Nuan had lost her appetite and felt nauseous just by listening to it.
Xue smiled and said, "I have no appetite now, but I'm a little hungry. What should I do?"
Su Nuan looked up and found that the old lady and Mrs. Xue were looking at her expectantly. She smiled and said, "Bai Chen and Ouyang Xing are going back. We will have hot pot tonight."
"I got a fat sheep and marinated it in advance. We can just cut it and cook it in the pot."
Xue immediately smiled and said, "Okay, it's better for you to cut the meat yourself and then cook it."
The old lady pursed her lips, a little aggrieved, "I can't bite it."
Su Nuan quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, grandma. We have minced meat and fish balls. Everyone can come and have some."
"By the way, where's Tuantuan? I didn't see her when we were having dinner just now."
The old lady smiled and said, "Tuantuan went to the school to teach the children how to count. It's not dinner time yet so he hasn't come back yet."
Su Nuan smiled knowingly. There are no idle people in the north.
The old lady said, "Okay, we won't eat now. Leave these for the people in the kitchen."
After a pause, she continued, "What exactly is Mu Fengjiao's purpose in coming here?"
Xue shook her head. "From the looks of it, she's not targeting Cang'er. Let's wait and see. A fox will always reveal its true colors."
The old lady nodded, a look of worry on her face.
Su Nuan didn't want to discuss this. She said, "I'll go prepare dinner first. Mom, remember to have someone send some lanterns over so we can eat at night."
Xue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go to the warehouse and take a look."
After Su Nuan bowed to the two elders, she left the hall and found Zhao Jingcheng and Ling Cang talking in the yard.
She immediately took a few quick steps and hid behind the rockery to eavesdrop.
Then Zhao Jingcheng said sarcastically, "It must be very uncomfortable for a eunuch like you to see a beautiful woman being enjoyed by others, right?"
Ling Cang looked at him indifferently, shaking a bottle in his hand, "This is a pill that Nuannuan made specially for me. After taking it, I will be able to return to being a normal man."
"Continuing the family line is no problem. If Nuannuan had an affair, why would she make such a pill for me?"
His face was full of arrogance and pride.
Zhao Jingcheng sneered, "Impossible, you drank the secret medicine made by the palace to make you infertile. You will never be able to have children in your lifetime."
Ling Cang remained calm and said, "Master Wang is the imperial physician, right? Let him come and take a look and we'll know."
Zhao Jingcheng immediately shouted into the room, "Master Wang, here is a pill that I need you to identify."
Lord Wang had vomited so much that he had no strength left, but he still walked out trembling.
His pupils shrank when he saw the pill in Ling Cang's hand, "Han Yu?"
Ling Cang nodded, "Yes, my wife carved the bottle herself to keep the pills."
It turns out that the more honest a person is, the more likely their lies sound truthful.
Zhao Jingcheng snorted coldly, "It's just a little cold jade, what's so great about it?"
Lord Wang didn't indulge him this time. He stroked his beard and said, "Don't underestimate this cold jade bottle. It's worth a million gold and it's hard to find one."
