Chapter 43 Inquiry
Bao Ge'er also covered his mouth obediently and didn't say anything, but his eyes were really bright. I don't know why he likes watching people fight so much.
At this time, the man in white could no longer support himself and fell to the ground. The man in black at the head should be the leader. He had raised his sword and was ready to chop the man. At this time, the man looked towards her. She was sure that he was looking at her. He knew that there was someone here. Looking into his eyes, she somehow managed to pierce the black leader's neck with a stone.
"Bao Ge'er, you stay here, sister will go to help." Bao Ge'er covered his mouth and nodded.
"Who?" The men in black stood with their backs together, on guard. Who could have killed a man so silently that they didn't even see the hidden weapon clearly?
The man in white looked at the fallen leader in black, the bloody hole in his neck still oozing blood, his eyes full of contemplation.
"ah."
A scream revealed that another person had fallen to the ground, which made the group of men in black even more frightened.
"ah."
"ah."
Two more fell to the ground, and the remaining two people wanted to retreat.
"Over there, in the tree!" One of the men in black spotted Li Zheng's position. At this point, the man in black was furious, having killed so many of his brothers.
Two men rushed towards her with knives, but Li Zheng pointed her toes and kicked each of them. Seeing that they fell to the ground and didn't get up again, she walked over to the man in white.
"Thank you, benefactor." The man sat down on the ground, leaning against a tree. He had many wounds on his body, and his white clothes were almost bloody. However, if the driver was fast, he should be here soon. He took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, threw it to him, turned around, and walked away with Bao Ge'er in his arms.
The man in white watched his benefactor fly away with a tap of his toes, hiding the emotions in his eyes. Although she had her face covered, he remembered those eyes.
At this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves, and the horse stopped. He dismounted and knelt in front of the man. "I am late, please punish me, Master."
The man held up the medicine bottle and said, "Let's take care of it."
…
When Wang Yue returned home, he saw the girl and the young man and quickly served them tea. "Girl, why is your skirt torn?"
Li Zheng looked at the piece of cloth she had torn off and wondered where she had thrown it.
"It's okay, I'll just throw it away later. By the way, no one's home, right?"
"Yes, young lady. Aunt Liu Si came here just now. Seeing that you were not here, she left and said she would come again tomorrow."
"Didn't you say anything?"
"No, it doesn't look like a big deal. I think they're just here to chat."
"Well, let's wait until Aunt Liu comes tomorrow and then we'll talk about it. By the way, Ayue, go to the grain store and buy more rice and flour, as well as more vegetables and meat." Since he said that, it means that it should break out in the next few days.
"Hey!" Looking at the excited look in his eyes, you can tell that he probably thinks he is going to do it well again.
The next day, Li Zheng didn't go out and stayed at home. In fact, she didn't go out usually, and there was nothing for her to go out for.
"Miss, Aunt Liu Si is here."
"Okay, I understand."
As soon as I walked out of the house, I saw Aunt Liu sitting in the yard. "Hello, Aunt Liu. I brought some snacks I made. Please try them."
"Oh, A Zheng, everyone around us knows your cooking skills. It must be delicious." This girl is so fair and clean that she looks very attractive.
"No, Fourth Aunt was joking." She really couldn't handle this kind of situation.
"By the way, A Zheng, I came here yesterday and heard from your grandson that you went to see your brother. How was it? Did you suffer any hardship?"
"No, Auntie, he's fine. He just needs some practice, but that's all."
"That's good, that's good. A Zheng, I came here today because I want you to tell me the truth. You are already fifteen years old. Recently, people have been asking me if you have found a boyfriend. I didn't dare to say anything, so I turned them down. I came here to ask you so that you can have an idea." She didn't say it directly. If she had a boyfriend, it would be very awkward. If she didn't, it would be easy to say.
She was a little stunned. Someone asked so soon. Isn't it said that it's hard for people without parents to get married? But she still told the truth: "Thank you for telling me, auntie, but I'm already engaged." She smiled shyly.
"Oh, I see." Her voice suddenly dropped. "What about your brother?" she asked, pretending to be indifferent.
"Well, my brother is also engaged." She smiled shyly and teased, "My younger brother isn't yet!"
Aunt Liu laughed at her words, "Oh, your brother is too young, no one has come to find me yet! But then again, when will your fiancé come to propose to you? It's not that I'm being rude, but most girls here get married at the age of sixteen. Don't do it too late, otherwise there will be rumors." Although the two families couldn't get along, the girl was a good one, so she still had to say more to her.
"Well, auntie, I know. I should go with my brother next year." Anyway, just say this first, and then find another reason when the time comes.
"That's right. It's not right for you to go beyond your brother's authority. But after your brother gets married, it will be your turn." Aunt Liu Si automatically ignored the true meaning of the last sentence and spoke to herself.
After Aunt Liu left, Li Zheng prepared to make some duck products to sell. These students have only had skewers to eat recently, and they must be tired of it. Fortunately, she asked A Yue to buy ten ducks this morning, so she had to start cooking now.
The ingredients used in this duck dish are more complicated than the previous ones. After blanching the duck, put it in the pot, add the prepared spices and seasonings, and slowly braise it. After braising, do not open the pot and simmer it directly in the pot. It will be more flavorful after simmering for one or two hours.
"Brother Bao, when will your family cook some new dishes?" Li Leiting was a little depressed. If Bao'er's family didn't cook red shrimps and snails, there was no other choice.
"What's wrong? Do you think the skewers are not tasty?"
"No, I don't. The skewers are delicious, but I can't eat them every day."
Bao Ge'er thought to himself, me too, but my sister would still make delicious food for him. However, he couldn't tell this to Ting Ge'er, as it would make others jealous.
"Don't worry, my sister said she'll make something delicious today." She said she's going to make duck! I've eaten it once before, so I have to try it this time.
"Really? Then we have to go there today." So excited, finally there is something new!
When the students around heard this, they all gathered around and asked if it was true. After receiving a positive answer, they dispersed, thinking to themselves, "I have to run fast after school today, otherwise it will be too late and there will be nothing left. Haven't you seen those adults fighting with us kids for food every day?"
When school was almost over, Master Wang saw that the students looked very energetic. Could there be new products?
