Main room.
Liu Xu was chatting with his father. When he saw Ke Xin stand up, he waved at her.
"Didn't you get enough rest last night? Look at the dark circles under your eyes." This caring voice came from his own father.
Ke Xin sat down below her father and shook her head at him. "I had a dream all night. I dreamed of chasing geese. I want to eat goose stewed with pickled cabbage."
As soon as she finished speaking, the two fathers did not expect this to happen. They looked at each other and laughed. Jiang Yongtian said with a smile: "It's all thanks to you, brother. Otherwise, everyone would think that I owed her a favor."
Liu Xu's eyes smiled, and a subtle expression appeared on his face, no longer cold. He said in a loud voice: "Kexin is only fifteen, and it is the time for growth. Naturally, she needs to keep up with nutrition. When Yang'er was this old, she would eat four or five bowls of rice at home, not counting the vegetables."
Speaking of raising sons, Jiang Yongtian finally found a topic: "Little boy, you eat me to death, this is all known, especially my two boys... Don't mention it."
The family was poor, and they had little to eat. They had never had enough to eat that year. They had saved up some food with great difficulty, but in a blink of an eye, ten kilograms of food were gone in just a few days. They didn't see anything else going down, but only the food in the rice jar was going down fast.
"I remember when the eldest son was fourteen, he didn't have a full meal at night, so he drank water. As a result, he wet the bed because he had to pee urgently. The eldest son was smart. After the second son fell asleep, he moved the second son to his bed and slept on the second son's bed." Jiang Yongtian recalled the past. Although life was hard, he could not hide his happiness.
He turned to Liu Xu and said, "The next day, my wife woke up and saw that the child had wet the bed. She immediately beat the second child. The second child was only eleven at that time."
Liu Xu laughed softly: "Then you've got the wrong person!"
"Yeah, the second child was stubborn and insisted that he peed. So my wife investigated and found that the eldest child's pants were wet and smelled. That's when she realized she had hit the wrong child."
As her father talked about the past, this fragment flashed through Kexin's mind. She smiled and said, "Then my mother bought a big bun for my second brother and me, but she didn't buy one for my eldest brother."
We didn’t eat big buns often at that time. A meat bun cost two cents, and adding a few copper coins was enough to buy a pound of black flour. So two big buns at that time cost half a pound of black flour.
A few people laughed and joked for a while, until the second brother came into the room, then they stopped laughing and stopped talking.
Jiang Shan looked at them, almost laughing, and was a little confused: "What are you talking about? You look so happy!"
Ke Xin asked him, "What about what happened last night? How's that hunter?"
"Last night, after Doctor Wu stopped his bleeding, he thanked me twice and left!" Jiang Shan brushed the dust off his sleeve and said nonchalantly, "I told him to sleep in the main room for one night, but he refused, saying his wife at home was worried. We didn't keep him, and then he left."
Afraid that his wife would worry? This clearly meant he was going back to tip off the family.
"Since they are in a hurry to leave, we can't keep them!" After saying this, Ke Xin went out to make some milk tea.
In the kitchen, Haitang was cooking. Seeing the young lady coming, she respectfully called out, "Young lady, what would you like to eat? I'll make it for you!"
He stared at himself nervously and cautiously. Not only Ke Xin saw it clearly, but even Ge Shuzhen, who was burning the fire on the side, saw it clearly.
"I just want to drink milk tea, you go ahead and do your thing, don't bother me!"
While Ke Xin was speaking, a hand reached out from behind and twisted the flesh on her waist. She gasped in pain and looked at her mother in confusion. Who knew that her mother just glared at her and then left the kitchen.
Ke Xin used the fresh milk squeezed by her second brother that morning and some tea leaves she brought back from her parents’ home to make a pot of milk tea. She poured a bowl of milk tea and handed it to Hai Tang: “Try it and see how it tastes!”
Haitang was surprised and couldn't believe that the bowl in front of her was for her. She took it in a panic and said excitedly, "Thank you, Madam!"
"Drink it. If it tastes good, then follow my steps and learn how to make it. Then, whenever I want to drink it, you'll be able to make it too!"
Haitang nodded vigorously, and then began to sip the milk tea that the lady had mentioned. After taking the first sip, she couldn't put it down...
Outside the kitchen, Ge Shuzhen dragged Kexin to the backyard and said to her, "Look at that child. When he saw you, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He was so scared that his whole body was shaking."
Ke Xin: "...Mom, I really didn't scold them. They were all sent by Feiyang. If they were afraid, it would be Feiyang, not me!"
She won’t take the blame for this!
But Ge Shuzhen didn't think so: "You two are a couple, he can't escape you even if you tell him!"
satisfying:.....
"Hey kid, a maid is also a human being, she has her own thoughts. If you treat her badly, she might try to trip you up behind your back or give you some laxatives or something, and you'll be the one who suffers in the end!"
satisfying:.....
She looked at her mother in confusion: "How do you know all this?"
These maids were all indentured to death and were guards trained by the Liu family. How could they easily do such things? You know, the meals they eat were prepared by the servants. If anything happened to them, these people would not be able to escape!
Speaking of this, Ge Shuzhen took advantage of her neck to look outside. Seeing that no one was around, she said mysteriously: "That's what the storyteller in the teahouse in town said. Moreover, those maids even climbed on the bed. I see that your two girls are very good-looking. You should be careful."
