9. Continue to flirt with your benefactor
Jiang Zhen has a strong ability to survive in the wild, so it is no problem to deal with a chicken. After a while, he cleaned up the chicken feathers and took out all the internal organs in the chicken's belly.
The country people don’t want to waste even chicken blood, but Jiang Zhen doesn’t have the heart to deal with chicken intestines, so he just threw it aside - if Mrs. Jiang wants it, let her deal with it by herself.
However, Jiang Zhen did not deal with the chicken intestines, but immediately washed the chicken liver and threw it into the pot where the porridge was occupied.
In modern times, many people don’t eat things like chicken liver because of their high cholesterol, but now...
Jiang Zhen was sure that ingesting animal viscera would be beneficial to his body.
Animal viscera is high in calories and high in fat, and is rich in a variety of vitamins and various trace elements, many of which are lacking in his body today.
After throwing the chicken liver into the pot and cooking, Jiang Zhen dug two pieces of chicken breasts, cut them into shreds and put them in the porridge to cook. Then he cut the remaining chicken into pieces and put them in a shallow clay pot and steamed on a steaming rack.
Jiang Zhen cooked the porridge for a long time, and drank it while cooking. Finally, he found another clay pot to put it in Jiang Laosan's house for tomorrow to eat. As for the chicken... he took away the two chicken legs and two chicken wings, and a chicken skeleton was left in the kitchen.
After seeing the chicken skeleton tomorrow, Old Mrs. Jiang will probably get angry again. But for so many years, she has never been reluctant to even bite the chicken bones for Boss Jiang to chew? He has now repaid his grudges with kindness.
Jiang Zhen fell asleep again.
Jiang Zhen slept until midnight before he woke up. After waking up, he ate a chicken wing with the cold chicken porridge.
He made a lot of porridge last night, and after eating some of it, there were still a lot left... He put two chicken legs and the remaining chicken wings into the clay pot for the porridge. Jiang Zhen held the clay pot with one hand and the knife with the other, and left the Jiang family again.
This time, Jiang Zhen did not go to the Jiang family's broken hut, but walked south.
There is a big river to the south of Hexi Village. There are many ships coming and going on this river. It is said that the canal transportation runs from this river. There is also a wharf in Hecheng County, where people come and go, and it is very lively.
But there is no pier here, but there are many trees growing by the river, densely packed.
This forest does not belong to anyone, and the large fields north of the forest belong to the richest people in Hexi Village, Zhao Dahu.
Both Zhao Dahu and Zhao Jinge’s surname are Zhao, and they are considered to be their own family, but their relationship is far away. At least Zhao Jinge’s work in the Zhao family has not received any preferential treatment.
Brother Zhao Jin used to work as a short-term worker for Zhao Dahu's family, but now he has become a long-term worker for Zhao Dahu's family.
Short-term workers earn more daily wages and have to do more work. They are often watched by the owner from dawn to dark. If the salary is lower after being converted into long-term workers, they are more stable and relatively relaxed.
Of course, that was just a relative. From Boss Jiang’s memory, Jiang Zhen learned that the long-term workers here not only had to do the work in the field, but also had to help with the housework at the owner’s house. Boss Jiang once saw Brother Zhao Jinwa washing clothes for Zhao Dahu’s house.
Moreover, the Zhao family was a little stingy. The owner was responsible for the long-term workers' meals, but they were reluctant to leave, so they only gave Zhao Jin Ge some food, so they asked Zhao Jin Ge to go home for dinner every day.
This master's family is really not a good one, but for Brother Zhao Jin, it is already the best choice. At least he can take care of his family when he works at Zhao Dahu's house.
Jiang Zhen came to the woods beside the canal, picked up some dead branches, dug a hole in the ground, and then placed the clay pot on the fire and started cooking.
After cooking for a while, Jiang Zhen saw Brother Zhao coming here.
Zhao Dahu's family also eats three meals a day, and when they have lunch, they will send Zhao Jin out every time, either let him work in the field or ask him to chop wood and carry water.
Today, Brother Zhao Jin held a small axe and looked like he was coming out to chop wood.
"Boss Jiang?" Seeing Jiang Zhen, Brother Zhao was a little surprised, and his eyes were involuntarily attracted by the fragrant pot of porridge in front of Jiang Zhen.
"Brother Jin, come and have a porridge." Jiang Zhen greeted.
"No, I still have to work." Brother Zhao Jin said, frowned slightly again: "Boss Jiang, I heard that you beat the elders of the Jiang family yesterday?"
"Yes." Jiang Zhen admitted directly, feeling nervous. If Brother Zhao was an old man, he thought he had done something wrong... He and Brother Zhao were afraid that there would be no future.
"You... be careful." Brother Zhao Jin said, offending the elders in the clan is not a good thing for Boss Jiang.
"I will be careful." Jiang Zhen smiled at Brother Zhao Jin and relaxed. He deserved to be the person he liked and cared for him so much.
"That's good." Brother Zhao Jin nodded and was about to walk somewhere else.
"Wait." Jiang Zhen suddenly stood up and grabbed Zhao Jinge: "I can't finish my porridge, please stay and eat it with me."
Brother Zhao Jin was pulled by Jiang Zhen, and subconsciously struggled, but he couldn't break free.
"Brother Jin, don't you even give me a chance to repay kindness?" Jiang Zhen asked again.
"You have given eggs." Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen holding his hand awkwardly.
"Is my life worth only two eggs?" Jiang Zhen insisted and said, "If you don't sit down and eat, I will follow you later, follow you back to the village, and follow you to your house."
"You..." Brother Zhao Jin was shocked by Jiang Zhen's rogue words. He was inexplicably a little anxious. After thinking about it, he still sat down.
"I made this porridge and it tastes very good. Eat more." Jiang Zhen saw that Brother Zhao Jin left behind, smiled, and then gave Brother Zhao Jin a ceramic spoon he took from the Jiang family.
"Where did you get the chicken?" Zhao Jin Ge looked at the pot of chicken porridge in front of him and subconsciously swallowed. When he was a child, his family's life was still good, and he could kill a chicken during the holidays. But later, his family became poorer and could not eat chicken anymore. He only bought a chicken during the Chinese New Year and had to count the pieces to serve guests.
"Catched in the chicken coop." Jiang Zhen smiled, and saw that Zhao Jin was looking at him in confusion, and said, "For so many years, you know how those people in my family are treating me. This time I almost died. Isn't it okay to eat one of their chickens to raise your body?"
Brother Zhao Jin thought about it, but others didn't know, but he knew it. Boss Jiang almost starved to death before... Moreover, the Jiang family was rich, and the day Jiang Laosan married was full of good food and good food. Now it is really worth giving Boss Jiang a chicken.
"Eat it." Jiang Zhen held a spoon in one hand and chopsticks in the other. He first scooped a spoonful of porridge with the spoon, and then picked up half of the chicken liver with the chopstick and stuffed it into Brother Zhao Jin's mouth.
Brother Zhao was suddenly fed and his whole body was frozen. He didn't dare to chew the chicken liver at all, and his hands were trembling.
If it weren't for the sun and rain that made his skin dark every day, he would probably have made a big blush now.
When Jiang Zhen saw him in shock, he quickly changed the subject: "Can you see things at night?" There are many people in the countryside who suffer from night blindness due to vitamin A deficiency, and Boss Jiang was also lucky, so he didn't get it.
"There is... I can't see clearly." Brother Zhao slowed down and said, because there was something in his mouth, his voice was a little vague. He liked chicken liver, or liked it all as long as it was meat, but now he couldn't taste the chicken liver in his mouth.
"Eat more chicken liver and pork liver, and you will be able to see it in the future... I will find a way to get it for you to eat in a few days." Jiang Zhen said.
Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen in surprise. Do you want to make something else for him to eat?
Jiang Zhen smiled and said, "You are my benefactor, I should repay you." It would be best to promise yourself.
Jiang Zhen was naturally aware of his thoughts, but Brother Zhao felt that he was thinking too much, and finally calmed down: "I really don't need..."
"And I have something to ask for your help." Jiang Zhen interrupted Zhao Jin's words.
"What do you need to help?" Zhao Jin asked.
"I want to split the family. If there is no accident, I will probably live in the broken hut next to your house after splitting the family. I will be alone at that time, so you must help me with it." Jiang Zhen said.
He would definitely leave the Jiang family in the future. Originally, he thought about whether to pack up his things and live in the Zhao family immediately after leaving the Jiang family, but later he felt that he was a bit shameless.
He didn't even have the ability to support his family. He was really embarrassed to just go to his wife's house to live, not to mention that he would probably have to break up with the Jiang family. If he ran to the Zhao family at that time, it would definitely make it difficult for Brother Zhao Jin's family to do in the village.
He can do whatever he wants, and he can't implicate his wife and family... So, he should talk about love and raise his body first, and then think about something else.
His body is too broken now, and it would be so embarrassing if he can't hold on for even half an hour.
Jiang Zhen, who has never been able to get himself a wife to warm up his bed in modern times, couldn't help but look back and forth with his eyes. The more he looked, the more he was satisfied, and the more he liked him.
"You want to split up?" Brother Zhao Jin was so furious that he felt a little uncomfortable when he was seen by Jiang Zhen.
"Well, I want to leave that family and stop being a cow or horse for them." Jiang Zhen said. As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sense of joy coming from his chest... Another emotion left by Boss Jiang came out. Speaking of which, Boss Jiang was still a little emotionally stuck in this body, which was one of the reasons why Jiang Zhen could not recommend himself to the pillow mat to Brother Zhao Jin immediately. However, he didn't care much about this. He had a premonition that when he struggled for a while, Boss Jiang would probably be able to leave with peace of mind.
Although Brother Zhao Jin was poor, his parents treated him very well, so he always couldn't stand the bad treatment of the Jiang family to Boss Jiang. He didn't think that Jiang Zhen was going to split up his family and did not think that he was wrong: "It's good, don't worry, I will help you when the time comes."
