Chapter 66 Departure

Su Ning said nasally, "It's not because of sadness."

Obviously happy...

Adan saw that the other party didn't say much, and didn't ask too much, as long as he was fine.Pointing to the chicken in the pot on the ground, he said, "Is it done?"

"No, there are still very small fluffs. I haven't pulled them with my hands yet. But the water is not hot now. You can pull them for me. I will go in and cut things." Su Ning got up.

His feet were a little numb, and he staggered a bit, barely standing still.

"Be careful." Adan rolled up his sleeves and began to help.Although the light was dim, it was still clear to see.There are also some fine fluff on the top.These fluffs are naturally impossible to eat, don't cook them deliciously, and you will eat them as soon as you eat them.

Su Ning went into the kitchen, chopped the onion, ginger and garlic, and when she went out to look again, Adan was still pulling one by one...

I couldn't help but cover my face, when will I get this done.Su Ning went over and wiped it with her hand, and pulled the fluff, which was very fast.The main reason is that the chicken that has been blanched in hot water is very easy to make.It's just that it's not convenient to touch the water in winter.

"It's almost there." Su Ning lifted the chicken and looked at it twice, then nodded with satisfaction.After the chicken is done, put it in the casserole and go to other things.

"It's not enough to just have good food, but also some side dishes." Su Ning muttered to herself.

Adan hummed, anyway, the other party didn't let him help with things, and he couldn't get involved.

"Do the cooks in the palace cook a lot of delicious dishes?" Su Ning suddenly thought of this.

Adam nodded. "The cook in the imperial dining room is indeed very good, but the emperor doesn't have too much food."

"Eh?" Su Ning was puzzled. "Why?"

A Dan blinked his eyes slyly and said: "When I was a child, I overheard it when I was looking for the cook to eat. The manager who is in charge of the father's diet is very smart. Usually it is the ones that are available all year round. The ingredients, such as chicken, duck, fish, and precious seasonal vegetables, are generally not made unless the emperor mentions them."

Seeing Su Ning looking at herself in confusion, Adan explained: "This is an unruly rule that was left in the past. If the emperor plundered in the past, if the cook made some rare ingredients today, I will ask for it next time. As a result, there is no food, and if you vent your anger, everyone will be punished."

"You said that if it's winter, the father said that he wanted to eat fresh spring bamboo shoots. Wouldn't that make it difficult for the cook? So this is an unruly rule. Naturally, it is impossible to have so many dishes every day and still have to vomit. So the person in charge The eunuch has to be smarter."

What Adan said clearly and logically, Su Ning seemed to make sense.Then I thought it had nothing to do with me.

Adan lifted the lid of the pot to see that the rice should be ready. "Didn't you put sweet potatoes?"

Su Ning let out an "ah" and shook her head. "I thought you wouldn't like to eat this kind of food now. These are coarse grains that poor people use to fill their stomachs when they can't afford white rice..."

Adan sighed helplessly and said, "I remember now. It's not that I've changed my body, and my taste remains the same. In fact, it's good to eat a little once in a while."

"En." Su Ning responded, bent down, and pulled out two roasted sweet potatoes from the fire.He dusted off the ashes and said, "I buried two of them, do you want to eat them? These sweet potatoes have been stored for a while, and the longer they are, the better they taste. They are much tastier than the sweet potatoes that were dug out at the beginning."

In fact, at first she thought that if Ah Dan didn't like eating sweet potatoes, she would wait a while and eat them secretly, so as not to waste them.

But there is a saying that is good, the longer the sweet potato is put, the sweeter it will be.Of course the bad ones don't count.It's a pity that I don't have a cellar at home, so I can't store sweet potatoes.

A Dan went to take a small bath first, then moved a small bench, lit a fire for Su Ning, and slowly gnawed sweet potatoes while burning.Su Ning stopped me when I finished eating one and wanted to finish the next one.

"I still have to eat later, so eat less."

"Oh, good." Adan stopped and went to add firewood.Su Ning doesn't have a torch at home, only an iron tongs.Usually I can only move my mouth to blow, and it is easy to blow a mouthful of ashes.But it's winter and there's nothing wrong with that.

The reason why there is no torch is because Su Ning found the centipede before.In the past, her house was a small torch, but when she was blowing torches, she almost sucked a centipede into her mouth.

Su Ning was so scared that she simply used the torch as firewood. After all, she didn't know what would happen if the centipede entered her mouth.

This southern region, especially during the rainy season, is extremely humid everywhere.Sometimes when a stone is lifted, there are densely packed bugs, which cannot be prevented...

Su Ning made stewed chicken, cracked two poached eggs, and cooked some side dishes.Of course, I also cut two sour radishes.

When all the dishes were ready, Su Ning was not in a hurry to eat.Put the dish on the stove to heat up.Go to the back room and dig out the glutinous rice flour, then go to spoon a bowl of sweet wine. "I'll make sweet wine glutinous rice balls for you later."

Adan left in a hurry last time, and there was no glutinous rice flour at home.

A Dan watched Su Ning wandering around, and after finishing the sweet wine glutinous rice balls, he dragged her over and told her to sit and eat obediently.

"If you do more, you won't be able to finish it." Remind her kindly.

Su Ning nodded, thinking so too.

The dishes are quite rich. Before that, I ate a sweet potato. For dinner, I had stewed chicken, poached eggs, and a small dish of shredded sour radish. Finally, there were desserts.

The stewed chicken is tender and delicious, and Su Ning has stewed it for a long time, the meat almost melts in the mouth.

It's just that the chicken soup is a bit oily, so she didn't drink it.I was a little full after eating, but I added a mouthful of sour radish, and I felt my appetite revived.I drank a bowl of rum and added a glutinous rice ball along the way.

She is full...

Su Ning glanced at her several times and asked her to walk more.But Adan clearly saw two words written in those eyes. "Fool……"

He said he was going for a walk to digest food, but in the end he just circled around his daughter-in-law, and after walking for a long time, his stomach was no longer full.

Seeing Su Ning take out the bowl and put today's chicken into it.She was a little confused. "What are you doing?"

Su Ning was still continuing to pull the chicken, which she had put in the pot before, and had not been mixed with what they ate. "Anyway, we can't finish eating. Aren't your guards living in the village? I'll send them over tomorrow."

"Send it in person?" Adan asked, frowning.

Su Ning nodded.if not?There were no guards to follow them, so they had to send them over by themselves. "Well, it's early tomorrow morning, but these things are too little. Let's just force one person to eat a little."

Seeing that he couldn't dispel Su Ning's thoughts, Adan had no choice but to stop him.Said: "Well, is it ready?"

Su Ning stopped and put down the chopsticks: "Well, I'll put them down first."

"No, give it to me first." Adan took the bowl in her hand, and walked out with the other party's puzzled eyes. "Come out."

A guard jumped out from a corner of the yard. The guard was wearing dark clothes and was hiding in the corner.In addition, the lights in Su Ning's house are small, so it's really hard to see clearly.

A Dan handed him the bowl of food and said, "Take it back and share it."

Su Ning came out, also surprised in her heart.I wonder when did they come?

The guard didn't put on any pretense either, he took the bowl of food, nodded and said, "Thank you, Master, and Miss Su Ning!"

Su Ning quickly waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's just a bowl of vegetables. Do you want to take back the leftover sweet wine glutinous rice balls? I'll get them for you."

The guard originally wanted to say no, but he stopped talking when he saw his master's expression.Besides, who wouldn't be happy to have delicious food in this winter.

Su Ning filled some wine jars and asked him to take them back.Seeing the other party walking back to the village at night, she was still a little worried.But Adan said it was all right and she didn't say much.

It became even colder after nightfall tonight, and the wind picked up after the two of them stood for a while.The cold wind was blowing uncomfortably, and the two hurried into the house.Although the house is small and crude, it is enough to shelter from the wind and rain.

The fire on the stove was extinguished, and the two returned to the room where they slept.Su Ning still had to take a bath, but Adan had taken a bath before, so she took off her clothes and nestled under the quilt to warm her bed.

After a while, Su Ning pushed the door open and entered.Wearing unlined clothing, he walked in with his body bent, his teeth chattering, and he shouted, "It's so cold..."

Trotting to the bed, Adan hurriedly lifted the quilt, and Su Ning got in.

A Dan hugged the other party and said, "Didn't you just scrub it a little?"

Su Ning nestled over, and the other side was warm. "After taking a big bath, I still feel itchy anyway, but I feel much more comfortable after taking a bath."

"Shall I scratch you?" Dan said.

The boss lady's ointment didn't do much, but it was barely effective.It's a pity that I didn't bring anything in this regard.Hearing what Adan said, she hurriedly waved her hand to express that she didn't need it. "Don't, the more you scratch, the more itchy, it's better to just leave it like this, and it will disappear after a while."

The oil lamp was naturally extinguished when it ran out of oil, and the room was plunged into darkness.Su Ning didn't sleep well, and heard a little movement from the kitchen.Pushed A Dan slightly, and whispered: "I heard a sound from the kitchen, did you hear it?"

Could it be that some thief is desperate for money again, and came to her house to beat the autumn wind?

Adan's eyeballs rolled around for a while, and he held down the opponent's body who was about to get up. "It's okay, if there is any movement, let's go and have a look together. Besides, it's just the kitchen, there's nothing else going on. The doors and windows of the house are closed, so don't worry."

Su Ning believed it a little bit, anyway, if there is any movement, go and see.

After comforting the other party, A Dan muttered in his heart, why not be careful.

It was the two guards who could only nest in the yard before, but now that they were resting, they naturally wanted to find a more comfortable place, that is, there was only the kitchen.

But it's not easy for Adan to tell Su Ningming, she is afraid that after she tells, Su Ning will have to get up and pack two quilts for the guards.

This is a shift guard, but it has been cold for more than an hour, and Su Ning is the only one who has trouble tidying up the quilt, so she chooses not to say.

When I got up the next day, the guard was naturally not in the yard.Maybe it was because he went back, Adan thought that there was nothing serious about it.It's their own fuss.

At noon, someone knocked on the door.Su Ning thought it was the guards, but it turned out that it was Aunt Zhang and her neighbor Mammy.

It's really strange for these two people to collide.

"What's wrong?" Su Ning asked first.

The neighbor's mother squinted her presbyopic eyes and tried to look at A Dan who was strolling in the yard through Su Ning, but the other party was full at noon.It made Su Ning want to stipulate how much food she can eat in one meal.

The neighbor's mother hadn't spoken yet, but the aunt of the Zhang family replied first: "Su Ning, don't you invite us to sit in? Although your house is small, you can't let us hang out in the cold wind."

Su Ning was taken aback, she thought to herself that you rarely came to my house before.People who come here don't come in because they think the place is too small and crowded.what now...

But the other party said so, Su Ning couldn't help but invite the other party in.

Su Ning's house is indeed not big, although the things are not piled up too much, they are also very orderly, but because the place is really small, it really looks crowded.

But the number of people standing in this yard must be enough, the yard is spacious.

"Are you that Adan?" Aunt Zhang didn't care about Su Ning after she came in, and asked Adan who was walking first.

"So what?" Adan was a little puzzled, how could he ask why he was coming.

The neighbor's mother also came to talk, which was really funny. At Su Ning's house, the two of them didn't say a few words to the master, and they booed and warmed up to A Dan.

"When Su Ning bought you back, she was still a fool. I didn't expect to remember it now. Thanks to Su Ning, she has a good heart!" said the neighbor's mother.

"No, Su Ning has raised you for so long, you have to repay her. After all, Su Ning was watched by our relatives from childhood to adulthood, and has suffered in the past. You can't be ungrateful." Aunt Zhang answered said a word.

The two of them came and went, sang and harmonized, but they pretended to be good relatives and neighbors.If it weren't for A Dan who knew the other party's face, he would still be deceived.Forget about the neighbor's mother, after all, she is just an old man who loves to make small profits.

But she can clearly see the face of this neighbor's nanny.It's ridiculous to say these things now.

Back in the village, the first time Su Ning brought herself to appear in front of everyone, she was the one who stopped and sabotaged her.Well... At the beginning, I even got into a fight with Su Ning.

"I don't know why you are here today?" Adan finally said.

With a bit of an official accent, it wasn't so plain, the two of them froze for a moment before they realized it.

"How do you plan to repay Su Ning?"

Adan glanced at them and realized in his heart.Feelings, these two are planning to "repay" Su Ning that they are about to give.

If it was someone else, it stands to reason that this life-saving grace should be repaid by the spring.But these are too imaginary, and I guess they are just giving money.These two people want to share a piece of the pie.

Seeing that Ah Dan didn't speak, they rushed to answer first. "Su Ning's family is poor, why don't you give some silver and let her live a good life."

How much Adan wanted to give the two of them a supercilious look. Now that he said it nicely, as soon as he left, he would probably come to ask Su Ning for money.

reason?As long as you have this heart, don’t you worry about not being able to find a reason?

"Auntie, nanny, let's talk about this matter another day. I'll take you back." Su Ning issued the order to evict the guests.

He wanted to take them out, but the aunt of the Zhang family grabbed her, slapped her hand hard behind her back, and said in a low voice, "Aren't you stupid girl, don't you hurry up and ask for some money?"

Su Ning quickly pulled out her hand, which was already a little red and swollen, but it hurt even more after patting it twice.

"What are you doing?" Adan pulled Su Ning to look at her hand.Asked: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." She shook her head.

Aunt Zhang wanted to pull Su Ning away, and said, "I'll have a few words with her, don't stop me!"

Adan stood in front of her, not allowing her to pull people.With anger in his eyes, he snorted coldly.

Aunt Zhang wanted to say something, but a guard with a knife jumped out from the side.With a bang, he took out the knife and stood in front of Aunt Zhang's family, scaring the other party's legs limp.

Aunt Zhang wanted to say something, but the neighbor's mother had already retreated.He hesitated and slowly exited the yard. "Well, I'll come again sometime."

Seeing that her helper had left, the aunt had no choice but to leave indignantly.

After Su Ning was sure that the other party had left, she burst out laughing.Adan was a little puzzled, even though his hands were hurt by the other party, he still laughed?

"Aunt Zhang is a very bad-tempered person, she never admits defeat, and this is the first time I've met her today." Su Ning was in a good mood.

Adan fondled the other person's hair.Ask the guard. "How did the village chief explain my identity to the people in the village?"

"A lady from a rich family."

The village chief is also smart, this answer is really ambiguous, making it impossible for the villagers to guess anything.

Turn around and look at Su Ning.Said: "I'm going to start packing. We should be leaving in a day or two. What are you going to bring?"

She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then raised her head and asked Adan: "What do I need to bring?"

The other party smiled, patted her hair, and said, "Just bring you."

The originally tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and Su Ning smiled and avoided it.Naturally, the chickens at home could not be taken away, so they were all killed.The two of them couldn't finish eating, which made the guards cheaper.Su Ning was worried about the cat, so she took it with her.A Dan thought about it, there is no cat at home, but the garden is so big, there will always be mice, so it is good to keep them to catch mice.

In the past few days, the village has been discussing the identity of this Adan.Those guards with knives couldn't pry a word of sincerity from their mouths.

But what Su Ning is most concerned about is what benefits Su Ning will get, saving such a rich person, she is afraid that she will lose money.After Su Ning is rich, there are countless people who are worried about her family property, and the matchmaker will definitely break the threshold of her family.Some people also said that it is best to find a rich family for Su Ning, and then they can rest easy if they marry her as a matchmaker.

The discussion didn't stop until a group of people came from the entrance of the village. There were exquisite carriages at the beginning, and the best horses were only used to pull the carts.The villagers didn't know what to say, they just thought the carriage was very well decorated.There are two more carriages behind, but they are obviously not cheered up by the first carriage.

I wanted to go over to have a look, but there were still some people with knives blocking me.Glaring at each other, I really dare not pass.

Maids wearing the same service are separated on both sides, with thick cloaks on their bodies and buns on their heads.All of them looked cute and clever.The servants who serve here are all better dressed than their Hill.At the end there were two large suitcases of luggage.

Adan carried the cat and stood at the door waiting for Su Ning to come out. "Ningning, the carriage is here..."

There was a sound from inside and hurried out.The house has been tidied up, the house has not been bought, but it is basically empty inside, and the village chief is entrusted to watch it.

Su Ning didn't bring any luggage, just some peanut candy and rum.She felt that it was too much to bring these things over there, and it was really impossible to give them to Concubine Lin Gui of the current dynasty.

But Adan said it's okay, the concubine mother has a very good temper.She also has a sweet tooth, so taking it with you will keep her happy.

Lock the door, and take the dozing cat that was being carried. "Let's go."

Ah Dan originally wanted to hold her hand, but the other party was holding the cat, so there was no time.Glaring fiercely at the dozing cat nestled in his wife's arms, he rubbed his nose and obediently gave up.

The villagers were all looking at it on the slope, chattering and making some noise.The village chief came out and waited as soon as he was old.Seeing Adan coming, he saluted respectfully.

Adan gave a sigh, and said to the village chief, "Thank you, old man."

"Don't dare!" said the village chief.His Royal Highness Yi Wang was generous, and the silver taels secretly rewarded before were enough for him to spend his old age and still have a surplus.

Adan also saw that the village chief treated Su Ning sincerely, and would rather help Su Ning despite being scolded and scolded by the people in the village.No matter what the reason is, this love alone is hard to repay.A mere silver tael is not worth mentioning.

The village chief looked at Su Ning, and couldn't help but say, "You child, take good care of yourself..."

"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief." Su Ning nodded.By this time, she didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.In the end, you have to go, whether you want to or not is the same.

Aunt Zhang's family really doesn't understand what's going on, she doesn't give Su Ning money, and she wants to take her away?

"Su Ning, you want to leave? She won't give you any money, so be careful of being cheated." She was envious and jealous, and her mouth was sour.

It doesn't matter if you have money, you can't say that you killed yourself in the daylight!

"I lied to her?" Adan looked at her and said indifferently, "Why do you say that?"

"Isn't this an aunt, afraid that she will be abducted? Where are you going!" The other party's arrogance went down, and he looked at Su Ning fiercely, but the other party was unmoved.

Adan turned his head and finally looked at her seriously, and replied: "This king takes her back to his mansion, King Yi's mansion in the capital."

After all, he led Su Ning downhill to get into the carriage.

The village head was clever, knowing that before she left, she wanted to show off and knelt down, and shouted: "Send off His Royal Highness King Yi!"

Others reacted and said the same.She didn't know her identity before, and those who don't know are innocent.Now that I know it, I feel that I have done enough etiquette.

Aunt Zhang's family was still trembling, and was forced to kneel down by someone.I kept thinking about it in my head.

That woman's daughter saved His Royal Highness King Yi?

At this time, the wind just picked up, blowing people's clothes lightly.Su Ning took another look before getting into the carriage, and her thoughts surged.

Fate tricks people...

The author has something to say: It's a bit late, sorry if there are anyone who is waiting.
