Chapter 5 Evacuate the entire Duke's Mansion

Obscure moon brothers and sisters first touched the big kitchen in the backyard of the Duke's mansion, because the kitchen is the best place to find, and obscure moon came to find it after smelling it.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a long table with a row of trays full of desserts. Obscure Moon's happy eyes lit up when he saw the rows of desserts.

Thinking that both A Niang and himself have a sweet tooth, Ozuki unceremoniously cleared all the pastries on the table.

Counting carefully, there are pine nut lily cakes, honey honeycomb cake, gardenia mung bean cake, milk yellow glutinous rice cake, barley and horseshoe cake, Tangli osmanthus cake, snowflake bean paste cake, almond and pea yellow, etc. Delicate desserts that can't even be named.

Obscure Moon walked a few steps along the long table, and saw a row of carved red lacquer food boxes placed on the wooden shelf, and ice bricks used to keep fresh were placed in the interlayer on the top of the food boxes.When you open the food box, you can find all kinds of dishes from all over the world, such as gold and silver crab meat rolls, braised peanut pork knuckles, shredded chicken with mushrooms in bird's nest, fresh shrimps in pepper vinegar, pouch tenderloin, braised Sixi lion head, hanging roasted pigeon, Stewed eight-treasure duck in soy sauce, watching the hazy moon drooling.

Obscure Moon stepped on the small bench, and opened the steaming steamer on the stove. There were steamed large white flour steamed buns, spring onion rolls, oatmeal steamed buns, pork buns, crab roe steamed dumplings and other pastries.

Seeing so many delicacies, Ozuki thought happily, this is a blessing, no need to eat A Niang's dark dishes every day, and no need to be hungry.

The idiot brother standing next to him, seeing his sister's happy face, also followed suit.

Obscure Moon looked around and saw a row of bamboo baskets on the opposite wooden frame, which were baskets of eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, and quail eggs.

Large chunks of bacon and ham, yellow cured chicken, plump cured duck and goose, and half a fan of pork hang from the beams of the kitchen.

With a wave of her little hand, Ozuki put all the food into the space.

There are still some pumpkins, radishes, cabbage, and sweet potatoes piled up in the east corner. After loading the pile of vegetables, Ozuki glanced at the stove, and then cleaned up all the grain, oil, sauce, vinegar, and salt on the stove.

In the end, he didn't even let go of the large iron pots on the stove.

Looking at the empty kitchen of the Duke's Mansion and the almost full freezer in the space, Ozuki felt a sense of accomplishment.

After searching the kitchen, the brother and sister went to the granary and emptied fifty shi of rice, forty liters of sorghum noodles, twenty bags of cornmeal, and two large vats of pickles.

With these grains, it is not a problem to feed the whole village on the way to flee famine.

Thinking about the coming of winter, there must be supplies to keep out the cold on the road, and Obscure Moon sneaked into the warehouse again, asked her brother to unlock the door, and then took all kinds of brocade cloth, quilts, cotton-padded clothes, goose down cloaks, and cotton boots from the Duke's mansion. , and scarf coats made of various animal furs were all emptied.

When passing by the mansion where Duke Yu lived, Ozuki took her brother to rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the house for a while, and finally found a dark room behind a row of bookshelves.

After entering the dark room, Mizuki was almost blinded by the gold and silver that filled the room. The whole dark room was paved with silver bricks, and in the middle was a small pyramid made of gold bricks. Silver jewellery, boxes of luminous pearls shining brightly, and clusters of jade coral piled up into a rockery.
Obscure Moon was a little stunned, it turned out that all the disaster relief funds from the imperial court had been sent here.

After being stunned for a while, Ozuki came back to her senses. After all, she had never seen so much money in her whole life.

Then she waved her little hand lightly, leaving nothing that would glow.

Leaving Duke Yu's residence, Obscure Moon collected all the things that could be taken away in the Duke's mansion, such as tables, chairs, benches, literature, calligraphy and paintings, wherever she went, it was like locusts crossing the border, not letting go of a stitch.

In the end, the empty Yuguo mansion looked cleaner than Mizuki's face, and even his words echoed.

After tossing and tossing for a long time, finally ransacked the Duke's mansion. Obscure Moon wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, thinking in her heart, these people's fats and ointments that were squeezed and looted should be taken from the people and used by the people.

It's just a pity that no medicinal materials were found here, it seems that I can only find a chance to stock up some in the future.

With a few cock crows, the sky in the east has turned pale.

Obscure Moon asked her brother to turn over the wall with her on his back, and then prepared to flee back to Xujia Village.

The two brothers and sisters wanted to avoid people's eyes and ears, so they chose to walk in the alley, but by coincidence, they happened to bump into the big housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion who was looking for Obi Moon.

Looking at the gloomy-faced Chief Steward of the Duke's Mansion, and a group of servants staring at him.

Obscure Moon forced a smile out of the corner of his mouth and said, "Good morning."
