Qu Qiuning came to the kitchen door and stood aside, watching the soldiers receive their meals silently.

When the soldiers saw Qu Qiuning, many of them were reluctant to leave after their meals because of her beautiful appearance. Instead, they squatted aside with their bowls in hand, drinking porridge while looking at Qu Qiuning.

There are fewer and fewer people queuing up for meals, but more and more people squatting around the kitchen drinking porridge.

When the last few soldiers received their meals, the three large wooden barrels were empty.

At this time, the three people who were getting their meals discovered that there was a pretty girl standing behind them.

"Girl, who are you?"

An old lady asked doubtfully.

Normally women are not allowed to enter this military camp. Only women like them who really can't find work will come to the military camp to help, and they are paid five copper coins a day.

Qu Qiuning replied in a gentle tone: "Auntie, I was exiled to the military camp. Captain Ming arranged for me to work in the kitchen."

When everyone heard that he was an exiled criminal, they immediately showed disgust in their eyes.

The man who was serving the porridge with a wooden spoon said:

"Today's porridge has been distributed. You can come back tomorrow to get more. Also, come to the kitchen to work at five o'clock tomorrow morning."

Qu Qiuning nodded, "Yes, I will take my leave first."

Qu Qiuning strode away. The old man looked at Qu Qiuning's back and rolled his eyes.

What he hated most were those people who committed crimes but acted like nothing happened. It made him angry just to see them holding their heads high and looking at them.

Earlier, Sima Feng came to tell him that there would be several women exiled to the military camp working in the kitchen, and he didn't need to be polite to them.

So he didn't cook their meals, and skipping a meal was no big deal.

Qu Qiuning returned to the yard and everyone looked at her. They saw that she had nothing in her hands and must have had some misfortune in the kitchen.

No one said anything. Now that they were prisoners, it was inevitable that people would deliberately make things difficult for them.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a gray gown walked into the courtyard.

Seeing so many people in the courtyard, he was stunned at the gate for a moment.

Everyone looked at him, curious about who this person was.

Su Chengyi spoke first: "Uncle Ge!"

The man looked at Su Chengyi with a look of surprise: "Yi boy, why is it you?"

So he strode up to Su Chengyi and looked him up and down.

Finally, I saw the crutch in his hand, and then his feet were wrapped tightly.

"Yi boy, what happened to your leg?"

Su Chengyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Ge, it's just a minor injury, don't worry."

"Why are you here?" the man looked at Su Chengyi again.

He was so busy with his official duties today that he paid no attention to anything else.

Su Chengyi briefly recounted how he was exiled.

The man then realized that in order to humiliate the Su family, this dog king had actually exiled Su Chengyi to the military camp to feed horses.

Su Chengyi introduced everyone: "This is Ge Xun, the military advisor of the military camp, and also my father's good friend."

Then Su Chengyi introduced Qu Qiuning and others to Ge Xun. When Qin Haoyuan and Monk Bikong were mentioned, Ge Xun seemed a little surprised.

"Uncle Ge, where are you going?" Su Chengyi didn't know why the military advisor came here.

Ge Xun pointed to a tiled house to the east and said, "I live here."

After Ge Xun finished speaking, he immediately burst into laughter. Now he understood that Su Chengyi and the others were arranged to live here.

First, they have women and there are soldiers outside, which inevitably causes some inconveniences.

Second, it was to take care of Su Chengyi, because his father was a general and a commander-in-chief.

Moreover, living with him as their military advisor, who would dare to bully them?

I have to say that Captain Ming is really cunning.

At this time, a soldier brought a plate of side dishes and two steamed buns.

"Military Advisor, your dinner."

The soldier walked up to Ge Xun and said.

"Please leave it in the house first. I'll be right there."

The soldier put the dinner into Ge Xun's room and left.

"Yi boy, have you had dinner yet?"

Ge Xun asked kindly.

Su Chengyi didn't know how to answer and was thinking about what to say.

"Master Military Advisor, we are just about to do it."

Qu Qiuning took a step forward and answered with a smile.

"Oh, okay, okay." Ge Xun said with a smile.

"Then you guys go ahead and get busy. I'm going to have dinner," Ge Xun said and walked into the house. He hadn't eaten all day and was really hungry.

Qu Qiuning walked into the kitchen and saw some firewood in the corner, so he took a bucket to fetch water, washed the pot and boiled water.

She planned to take out some steamed buns, and then make a jar of pickled mustard tubers, and her dinner would be solved.

Jing Mei and Pang Ya also went into the kitchen to help add firewood and light the fire.

Qu Qiuning walked out of the kitchen, entered the house, and went out of the room carrying a sack from the corner.

Qu Qiuning took out the steamed buns from the bag, placed them one by one on the wooden folding board, and then covered them with the lid.

Jing Mei squatted in front of the stove and put firewood into the stove one by one.

"Jing Mei, do you regret it?"

Qu Qiuning glanced at Jing Mei and asked.

Jing Mei was holding a piece of firewood in her hand and was stunned for a moment.

"No, without you, I might have died in the arena."

Qu Qiuning looked at this usually taciturn woman, and she hoped that she was willing to follow her.

"Well, the steamed buns are ready, let's take them out!"

Qu Qiuning found a wooden basin and put the snow-white buns into it. Jing Mei took it out and placed it on a table in the yard.

Qu Qiuning held the jar of pickled mustard tubers and placed it on the table.

When everyone saw the food, they immediately gathered around and stared at it.

They had never seen such white steamed bread in the dark night.

Yan Er stood beside the table, looked at the steamed buns and said with a smile;

"This steamed bread is really white, it must be delicious."

Qu Qiuning said gently: "Wash your hands first! Otherwise, it's easy to swallow bacteria into your stomach."

"okay."

After Qu Qiuning said this, everyone ran to the well to fetch water to wash their hands.

Bikong wiped his washed hands on his clothes, reached out to take a steamed bun and started eating.

It is soft in the mouth, with a strong wheat flavor and a hint of sweetness, and it fills your cheeks.

Qu Qiuning broke the steamed bun, picked up some pickled mustard from the jar with chopsticks, put it on the steamed bun, then wrapped it up and handed it to Yan'er.

Yan'er happily took it and said, "Thank you, sister."

Everyone followed Qu Qiuning's way of eating and each made one. As a result, An Ye and his friends finished the bun in just five bites.

Soon, the whole pot of steamed buns was eaten up.

At this time, Sima Feng came and stood in the middle of the courtyard. "At the fifth watch, all men go to clean the stables, except children."

After Feng Sima finished speaking, he walked away without caring about the reactions of the people behind him.

"Jing Mei, let's rest early. We have to go to the kitchen to work at five o'clock tomorrow morning."

As soon as Qu Qiuning finished speaking, Fatty pouted, "Sister Qiuning, so early? I can't get out of bed."

Qu Qiuning looked at her aggrieved expression and smiled: "Get up early to do things, and you can exercise and lose weight quickly!"

When Pang Ya heard that she could lose weight, she immediately became excited and glanced at Qin Haoyuan out of the corner of her eye.

She fought for her handsome husband.
