Chapter 178 I'm Almost Starved to Death
Back at the little eunuch's house again, the sun was almost setting.

Wei Xiang found a knife and killed chickens in the yard.

The biscuits given by the peasant woman just now were too dry and hard, and the little eunuch's family was hungry for a long time.

Not to mention that they don't have the strength to bite these dry and hard cakes, even if they eat them all at once, their stomachs can't bear it.

So still have to make some soup for them.

There is no need to make a very thick chicken soup. When the soup boils, it can be used to make cakes. Let them eat something first.

Chicken soup and chicken can be eaten later, the most important thing now is to revive them first.

Wei Xiang plucked a little bit of the hair on the front of the chicken's neck so that he could cut it down, and the blood immediately flowed out like pouring water.

As the blood flow increased, the chicken also began to struggle, its legs were straightened, and its wings wanted to flutter.

But being pinched by Wei Xiang's big hands, he could only convulse a few times before dying like that.

It took too much time to pluck the hair without boiling hot water, so Wei Xiang simply took a knife and cut the chicken's belly, peeling off the skin and hair together, which saved the time of plucking.

Then the internal organs were taken out again.

Find the stove and clay pots in the little eunuch's house, put a whole chicken in it to stew, add some water and cover it.

There is nothing in the bubble house of the little eunuch's house, not even seasoning, so the chicken can only be stewed in clear water.

The chicken was stewed over high heat, and the soup soon boiled. Jiang Zhao found a bowl from the bubble house, broke the cake into small pieces, and scooped up another spoonful of soup.

Grind it vigorously with a spoon, and soon a bowl of cake batter is made, with a hint of chicken soup.

She hurriedly brought them in and fed them, one bowl for each of them. Fortunately, the cakes given by the peasant woman's sister were enough. After eating the cakes, although their stomachs were not full, they would not starve to death.

And the chicken is still stewed in the stove. When the chicken is stewed, they can eat the chicken and drink the chicken soup.

But now after they ate the batter, they fell asleep.

Jiang Zhao took the bowl outside to wash, and looked at the sky, it was almost dark.

"Zhongqing, I have an appointment with Uncle Cheng. We will go to his house for dinner tonight. He will go to the border tomorrow. It's not good if I don't go today."

Cheng Wudi probably has cooked dinner and is waiting for her at home.

He's going to the border soon, and it's really not good if he misses this dinner today.

But the little eunuch's family still needs someone to take care of them. After the chicken is stewed, they can't get up to eat by themselves.

But if he goes out of the village alone to go to General Shenwei's mansion, not to mention safety issues.

Let's say she is a road idiot, let alone go to General Shenwei's mansion, whether she can get out of the village is a big problem.

"I'll send you to the general's mansion first, and then come back to take care of them."

"Now it will take a while for the chicken to be stewed."

The stew will be ready when he comes back, hungry.

Because they have been hungry for a long time, the chicken has to be stewed a little bit.

Jiang Zhao nodded, and asked Wei Xiang to move the stove to an open space to ensure that there were no combustibles around, and the two left.

When the two of them left the village, the sun had completely set, and Wei Xiang drove the carriage in the dark night.

About two quarters of an hour later, the carriage arrived at General Shenwei's mansion.

The concierge had already been waiting at the door, and when he saw Jiang Zhao coming, he hurriedly brought her into the dining hall of the mansion.

"The general has been waiting for Lang Jun for a long time, and he thought Lang Jun would not come."

Jiang Zhao smiled apologetically, "I've been delayed for a while."

Outside the mansion, Wei Xiang watched Jiang Zhao enter the mansion, and then the carriage drove towards their home.

After a while Jiang Zhao had to go home after eating in this mansion, he was worried that she would go home alone.

But he also knew that Jiang Zhao would be very worried about the situation of that family, so he had to go home and inform Si Mubai to come here to pick Jiang Zhao up.

Without Jiang Zhao sitting in the carriage, Wei Xiang didn't think about being safe, and drove the carriage on the road.

After arriving at the mansion, he ran in.

Si Mubai, who was drinking tea and reading in the pavilion, saw Wei Xiang in such a hurry and asked.

"Zhongqing, what happened, in such a hurry, where is Tianran?"

"Miss is having dinner with General Cheng at the Mansion of General Shenwei. I have something to go out later. You will pick Miss back from General Shenwei's mansion. I am worried about her going home alone."

Not to mention safety issues, he was concerned about Jiang Zhao's Lu Chi.

Let her come back by herself, she probably won't be able to find her way home after walking for a day.

Si Mubai nodded, put down the book in his hand, then went to Jiuqi's room and came out with Jiuqi in his hand, letting him drive.

Seeing that they had already set off, Wei Xiang went back to take care of the little eunuch's family.

On the way, I bought a lot of food and some quilts.

It is winter now, and the family of five is still covered with two old quilts.

By the time he returned, the fire that had stewed the chicken soup had gone out.

He hurriedly stepped forward to touch the clay pot, the pot was still hot, it must not have been extinguished for a long time.

He poured out the chicken soup. On the way here, he bought some food.

Soak the soft steamed buns into the soup and feed them all. The chicken was also torn into small pieces and fed to them.

After watching them eat all the food slowly, Wei Xiang covered them with the quilts he bought, with a layer on the bottom and another layer on top. It can be warmer.

Because he was going back soon, Wei Xiang didn't dare to light the stove for them, fearing that they would suffocate and die at home.

After confirming that they were all covered tightly, Wei Xiangyou fetched some water and put it within reach of them before leaving, and came back tomorrow to see how they were doing.

Before leaving, he closed the doors and windows tightly to make sure that no wind would come in.

Then he left the village on foot. The roads in the village were too narrow for the carriage to enter, so they had to stop at the entrance of the village.

I don't know if Jiang Zhao's work is over there now, so Wei Xiang drove to the direction of General Shenwei's mansion.

Even with Si Mubai around, he still felt uneasy.

As for Jiang Zhao, after being taken to the dining room by the concierge, he saw Cheng Wudi drinking alone.

She stepped forward and said.

"Uncle Cheng, what's the point of drinking alone? It's fun to drink with friends."

Jiang Zhao picked up the jug and poured himself a glass, then respected Cheng Wudi.

"My niece is late, I'll punish myself with a drink, and I hope Uncle Cheng won't be angry."

After finishing speaking, she raised her head and drank the glass of wine.

Seeing Jiang Zhao approaching, Cheng Wudi stood up and laughed.

"Hahaha, I thought you weren't coming."

"There's been a delay."

Jiang Zhao said.

Then sit down and have a meal with Cheng Wudi.

At the wine table, Cheng Wudi toasted frequently. No matter how good Jiang Zhao's capacity for alcohol was, he couldn't stop him from drinking like this.

There is such a large table of delicacies on the table that I haven't eaten a few bites yet.
