"Hey! I said you really have had enough! If I have meat for you, I will definitely give it to you."
Liniang saw that the people in front of her were greedily sniffing the aroma and smell of meat in the air. Some people were even drooling and wanted to rush into the yard. She blocked the door with her body without leaving a trace, although
He stood up straight but lacked confidence in his words: "Don't act like you have never seen the world."
As Liniang spoke, the tip of her nose twitched slightly, and the smell of meat seemed to be stronger. She swallowed quietly. Madam, even if she eats meat, why is the taste still so overbearing?
"It smells so good, it smells so good."
"Yes, holding a mother-in-law is not as comfortable as this."
"laugh……"
The men were very excited. They cast their eyes behind Liniang one after another, wishing they could go in immediately.
Seeing that they were talking more and more, Liniang frowned and moved her gaze. She never expected to see her wide eyes following the chickens and ducks moving in the yard. She quickly said: "Zhang Da, the chickens and ducks running around are also Madam's food."
, if you dare to take advantage of others, be careful of military law!"
"Liniang, let me just take a look and think about it. I don't dare to covet Madam's food. It's just that I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"That's right, let's just quietly take a few more breaths of carnal smells here."
"Yes! Let's just smell it and not eat it."
A uniform voice sounded, and the men looked behind Liniang with eager and intense eyes.
Liniang put her hands on her hips and looked at the men surrounding her in silence.
What Su Jian saw when she walked out was the scene in front of her. Liniang was standing in the center of the doorway, directly in front of Liniang. Although she couldn't see carefully, she also found several heads. Listen to their conversation, they
I haven't eaten meat for a long time, and I'm craving for the meat she bought.
A flash of light flashed in Su Jian's eyes, and she looked around again at the shabby surroundings. She knew that the General's Mansion was poor, but it turned out that the General's Mansion was so poor that they couldn't even afford a meal of meat! So that made everyone so hungry for meat?
Of course, she didn't think at all that the meat made from goose yellow was too fragrant. After all, in her opinion, no matter how delicious the food was, it would not be so tempting to a full person.
"Madam." Zhang Da noticed Su Jian behind Liniang and called out quickly. In an instant, everyone around him became quiet: "Madam, we are just passing by here and will leave immediately."
Su Jian watched the man headed by Zhang Da leave with people. She thought there were only a few or five people, but she didn't want to count them in detail, but she couldn't count them.
When Liniang saw Zhang Da leading the people to leave in a queue, she turned to look at Su Jian, feeling embarrassed. But she also felt that Su Jian should know about the situation in the general's mansion. She knelt in front of Su Jian: "Madam, I'm sorry.
It’s true that the brothers haven’t touched oil for a long time, that’s why everyone lost their composure. But don’t worry, Madam, they don’t dare to touch Madam’s ingredients.”
Su Jian withdrew her gaze and looked at Liniang with complicated eyes: "It's the General's Mansion after all... Forget it, Liniang, tell me the truth, how long did it take for you to have the oily smell in your mouth just now?"
Liniang lowered her head and raised a finger.
"A day, a week, a month?"
Liniang didn't understand what Su Jian meant by a week, but she understood what Su Jian meant by a month: "It's a year."
Although Liniang's voice was soft, Su Jian heard it clearly, and her eyes widened in disbelief. Seeing Liniang nodding, still muttering about a year, she gasped. After three days without oily smell, she
I can't stand it anymore. I really can't imagine how a group of big men can endure it without eating meat for a year.
Su Jian calmed down: "Is this true for each of you?"
Liniang nodded: "Yes."
"It's still the General's Mansion after all, so it's not like that." I know that the General's Mansion is poor, but it can't be this poor... Su Jian sighed again.
Liniang didn't feel embarrassed at this time. She looked at Su Jian and spoke with more confidence, her tone full of reverence: "The general is considerate and kind. There are wars at the border every year, and the court's workload is too heavy, so naturally there is no time.
He took care of us, the lower-class soldiers and our families. The general was kind-hearted and took us in, gave us a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and also let us have food to eat. We are grateful to the general."
Su Jian looked at Liniang for a long time, and then said: "So what you mean is that there are more and more people in the house, and it is good to keep everyone from hungry." That's what you mean.
"Yes, we are all grateful General."
Su Jian knew that Liniang's gratitude was true. Looking at the confident look on her face when she mentioned the general, she knew that General Zhan Zhan had a good impression on these people. But...
If a person is kind-hearted, she supports and agrees with it. But she should also act within her ability...
"Isn't it true that your general only wants to accept the soldiers and their families who come to join him?"
"The family members are all the soldiers' widows or their relatives, and the soldiers are all people who can no longer go to the battlefield and have no home."
"..."
"Madam also thinks the general is kind, right?"
Their eyes met, Su Jian did not answer Liniang's question, she only said: "Didn't your general think of a way? I mean, if you take in so many people, you should find a way to maintain their livelihood."
"..."
"Like doing business, farming?"
"The general thought of a way!" Liniang raised her head and looked at Su Jian with bright eyes.
Su Jian opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. Zhan Zhan thought of a way to prevent the people in the house from eating meat for a year... It seems that it is not a famine year, so it shouldn't be.
"The general cut down on clothing and food, and we share the joys and sorrows like us." Liniang was afraid that Su Jian wouldn't believe it, so she quickly explained: "The Zhuangzi under the general's name also gave us land for farming, but... we are useless, the food on Zhuangzi is
It can barely keep us from starving to death, but I believe that as long as we work hard, we will grow more food!"
"..." Seeing Liniang's firm words, Su Jian was shocked. Her nominally general husband also hadn't eaten meat for a year? As for Zhan Zhan, she really didn't know how to describe him now.
"Madam, please believe us."
"..." Su Jian also wanted to believe it, but when she thought of the men squatting at the arch and smelling the aroma of meat, she couldn't say the word "believe it".
"Madam, please go back and have your meal."
Su Jian took a deep look at Liniang and turned to leave. When she was about to enter the kitchen, she stopped, looked back at Liniang and said: "I don't know how many people are in the house, and the meat we bought today is too small."
It’s limited, so you can put all the meat I bought into the meals I cook for everyone. Even though you won’t be able to enjoy eating meat, you can still get a bit of meaty smell.”
After saying this, Su Jianti stepped into the room and didn't notice the change in Liniang's look at her.
At that time, Su Jian had only one idea. She must understand the situation in the General's Mansion as soon as possible. For no other reason than that, she needed to live with peace of mind and eat meat safely. Otherwise, they would not be able to eat meat or rice, and everyone would be watching.
