Chapter 7 Interesting(1/2)
"It's more than enough for me to kill her."
After Li Bier said these words, she picked up the fishing net and repair tools and left here.
Su Biwen watched quietly as Li Bier walked to the big fish tank, moved a small spoon and sat down, and continued what he was doing. He laughed silently.
What a cold and tough girl.
Su Biwen raised his chopsticks, stretched his wrist forward, and picked out a mung bean from the basket.
"Ding--"
With a casual flick of the chopsticks, the mung beans fell into the large bowl. With a crisp sound, they rolled around a few more times before lying quietly.
Clamping and flicking, Su Biwen continued these two actions, getting faster and faster, and the mung beans in the large bowl piled higher and higher, and finally piled up into the top of a mountain.
"Dong——dong——"
The sound of bells came from Guanyin Pavilion.
Su Biwen stood up and stretched: "Ah - I finally finished picking. I have food for lunch."
Li Bier put away the fishing net and handed it to the guards guarding the yard.
After the guard checked, he said coldly: "Let's go eat."
Li Bi'er then walked to the dining hall, and she remained silent throughout the whole process.
On the contrary, when Su Biwen was on duty, he kept complaining to the guards: "This job of picking beans is really too delicate. It cost us men half our lives to do it. Can you guys tell Lieutenant Yun Du?
, give us men a rough job?
"Chopping wood, fetching water, smashing stones, any hard work is fine, as long as you don't pick beans."
The guard turned over the beans in the large bowl with his hands. They were all mung beans. He also turned over the miscellaneous beans in the basket, but did not see a single mung bean.
He patted the dust on his hands and said calmly: "Didn't you do such a delicate job very well? I didn't see you losing half your life."
"..."
Su Biwen smiled awkwardly: "Isn't this the same job every day? It's a bit boring."
"Okay, then I will talk to Lieutenant Yun and ask him to arrange more work for you." The guard followed Su Biwen's words and emphasized at the end: "Don't worry, I promise to have a variety of things every day."
Hearing this, Su Biwen hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, no, no, no, I think it's good to pick beans, it just relieves the loneliness in my heart.
"Really, it's good. I'm not tired of it yet. Captain Yun is so busy, so don't bother him.
"I...I went to eat..."
Before the guard could say anything, Su Biwen finished speaking as if pouring beans and ran away.
When we arrived at the dining hall, we saw the ever-changing green vegetables, tofu, and steamed rice cakes on the table. Su Biwen's head dropped instantly.
"There are these dishes every day, without even a piece of meat. How can people have the strength to work? This is the South Palace, not a temple..."
Suddenly, a voice interrupted: "You are right, this is the South Hall, not a temple."
Su Biwen raised his head and saw Chen Guang standing in front of him, and asked happily: "Can we add meat today?"
"Okay." Chen Guang nodded.
Su Biwen immediately picked up his bowl and handed it to Chen Guang: "My request is not high, just give me fifty pieces of meat.
"The meat should be ten inches square. Add more oil and fry until golden brown. Add some minced green onion, minced garlic and shredded ginger and stir-fry. It is best to add some Vietnamese pepper. It will be crispy and tender with a hint of spiciness, so it will be delicious."
The people in the dining hall were salivating when they heard it, and there was a sound of swallowing saliva all around.
Chen Guang glanced around, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and stretched out his hand towards Su Biwen: "Okay, a piece of meat and a tael of gold."
"Bang!"
Su Biwen smashed the bowl on the table and raised his voice unconsciously: "What? A piece of meat costs one tael of gold? You sell it for more than the tribute, why don't you go and rob it?"
Li Bier, who was behind the long dining table opposite, looked up and continued eating.
The others swallowed their saliva and ate the bland vegetarian food in silence, but their eyes occasionally glanced at where Subiwen and Chen Guang were.
Chen Guang withdrew his hand and said calmly: "This is the rule of the South Palace. You can eat it whether you like it or not."
"you......"
Su Biwen was extremely angry, but calmed down: "Don't think that everyone doesn't know your thoughts. Don't you just want to prevent us from eating meat, so you don't have the strength to resist you?"
"What? We kindly took you in and gave you a way to survive, but you still want to resist us and cut off your own way of survival?" Chen Guang snorted coldly.
Su Biwen was speechless for a moment: "..."
At this time, Mrs. Chen, the cook, came over carrying a mahogany carved food box: "Deputy Lieutenant, the food in the South Cave is ready."
Chen Guang glanced at Su Biwen contemptuously, took the food box and put it on the table, then opened the lid and inspected each plate.
Su Biwen's eyes widened as he saw a plate of smoked bamboo shoots and meat slices, a plate of spicy scrambled eggs, a plate of green vegetables, a bowl of rice, and two steamed cakes, all steaming hot and fragrant.
He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes.
The others were the same, staring at the tender and delicious meat on the plate with their eyes wide open, their mouths squeaking, and their hearts itching.
"etc--"
Seeing Chen Guang carrying the food box and about to leave, Su Biwen stopped him: "As far as I know, there is only one person living in the South Cave. How can he eat so well even though he has both meat and vegetables?"
Chen Guang pointed to the money bag at his waist: "Why? Of course it's money. He has relatives who send money. Do you have any?"
"you......"
Chen Guang's words greatly irritated Su Biwen. His eyes turned red and he punched Chen Guang in the face.
"Ah, I hit someone."
"Come on, catch this lunatic quickly..."
Screams started, guards swarmed in, and the hall was in chaos.
Su Biwen was an enemy of many, and soon fell into the hands of the guards. The guards beat and kicked him mercilessly.
Seeing that the guard was vicious, Li Bier flipped her wrist and pointed her chopsticks at the guard, but she hesitated and finally put down her chopsticks.
----------
The noise outside became louder and louder, finally attracting Cui Hengyue's attention.
"What happened?" Cui Hengyue looked at Shui Rong who walked in with a food box.
Qionghua hurriedly greeted her, "Miss Shui Rong, I'll do it."
After saying that, without waiting for Shui Rong to agree, he took the food box from Shui Rong, walked to the table, took out the food in the food box, and laid it out one by one.
Shui Rong stood at the door, watching Qionghua busy from a distance, and answered Cui Hengyue's question: "It's nothing, it's just that there was a dog that wanted to eat meat and went crazy and scratched someone, so we taught him a lesson."
pause."
brat?
It must be them outsiders.
Cui Hengyue snorted coldly in her heart and looked at the table.
At this sight, Cui Hengyue's eyes instantly straightened.
what is that?
Wooden plate? Wooden bowl? Wooden chopsticks? Wooden spoon?
Cui Hengyue looked away and looked around the room calmly. Only then did she realize that all the sharp objects in the room were gone, not even a single piece of porcelain could be found.
Haha, these idiots really thought she was seeking death...
"Yueyue, it's time to eat."
Qionghua came over to help Cui Hengyue.
Cui Hengyue pushed Qionghua's hand away, slowly walked to the table and sat down.
"Yueyue, eat some porridge first to nourish your stomach."
Qionghua placed a bowl of porridge in front of Cui Hengyue and handed over a wooden spoon.
Cui Hengyue took the wooden spoon, looked at it twice, then dug out a spoonful of porridge, blew on it, and put it into his mouth.
It is soft and glutinous in the mouth and melts as soon as you chew it. The fragrance fills your lips and tongue, like a butterfly flying among flowers, free and cheerful.
Cui Hengyue's heart suddenly started to dance, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, she licked her lips, well...it was the scent of peony.
It turns out that people here like to put flowers when eating porridge.
Cui Hengyue took another spoonful and put it in his mouth.
One spoonful after another, in just a moment, Cui Hengyue finished the bowl of porridge. She picked up the chopsticks and reached for the dish.
"Hmm... delicious..."
Cui Hengyue ate so deliciously that she was a little carried away and uttered praises from time to time.
Shui Rong looked at Cui Hengyue with a strange look: Is this stinky girl crazy with hunger? It’s just the most common vegetarian dish in the temple, but she actually finds it delicious?
