Notes of Lanxi Crossing

Chapter 66 Division of Labor

As he spoke, the guard took out four small olive-colored eggs, which were slightly larger than bird eggs, from his bosom and spread them out in his palms.

"Ah, it's wild eggs!" Lan Xi was pleasantly surprised, holding these pocket eggs.

The little one was placed in Lan Xi's hand, just enough to be wrapped by her hand, and the slightly turquoise eggshell looked extraordinarily beautiful.

"Where did you find out?"

The guard handed over the remaining three to the brothers and sisters of the Zhan family. Hearing Lan Xi's question, he pointed to a haystack not far away.

"In that bush, when my subordinates opened it with their sabers to check, they found a small hole in it, and the egg was nested in it."

These are the guards brought by Zhan Jin and the others. If they have anything, they will distribute it to the young masters of the royal family first. Liu Shuhuan and Song Lanjiu didn't get any, so they can only go to Lanxi to watch together.

"Is this egg still available? We hunted birds and pheasants, and we'll roast them all later." Song Lanjiu reached out and plucked the pheasant eggs in the little girl's hand, not forgetting to propose a new itinerary.

Lan Xi handed the egg she was holding to Liu Shuhuan, who had been staring at it for a long time, and then nodded.

"There is one litter and there may be a second litter. Let's look for it again. It would be great if everyone can get one. Sister Jin, Zhanchen Zhanyu, are you going?"

Zhan Jin fondled the wild egg in her palm, her mind had already been hooked by it, and she shook her head upon hearing this.

"You guys go, this one is enough for me, I will wait here later, you guys come back earlier."

Zhan Jin didn't want to go, but Zhan Yu and Zhan Chen still wanted to participate.

Song Lanjiu left a few guards to guard Zhan Jin, and they took the rest to the rice fields. With these strong and fast guards around, their speed of finding pheasants and wild eggs was unknown.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the guards came back with a few pheasants and a small bag of wild eggs.

Among the Lanxi group, except for Zhan Yu who found a small nest of eggs, the others found nothing.

Lan Xi joked that he was exceptionally talented in eating, and he was much better at finding ingredients than them.

The group returned to Zhan Jin's location with the spoils. This time they found a total of six pheasants, but two of them were just small chicks, which were basically negligible, and the original one was only five to eat. , Not enough for a few people.

There are nearly [-] wild eggs. There are six little masters here, and each of them can get three. However, they also brought their close servants and maids, and they want them to taste it too.

In the end, Zhan Jin made the decision, and each of the six little masters got a chicken leg, a chicken wing, and two eggs, and Xiao Ling and the others shared the rest.

Zhan Jin took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and handed it to the captain of the guards. They worked hard, but in the end they got nothing.

Although they are masters and the latter are servants, the guards will not care about them at all when they are still children, but the superiors cannot just ignore them like this, they must be rewarded and punished clearly.

The head of the guard took the silver ingot and cupped his fists to thank him: "Thank you, Sigong...Fourth Miss, for the reward, these are just the duties of the subordinates, young masters just have fun!"

To be honest, this kind of bird with no flesh on its body is nothing to eat at all, that is to say, these little masters find it novel. To them, this is not as comfortable as the fat chicken and wine under the mountain.

"You deal with these wild animals first, and then you can send a few people down the mountain to buy some vegetables and food to eat." Zhan Yuhun ordered indifferently.

He held a small pheasant the size of a palm in his hand, and it was covered with grayish-brown fluff. Zhanyu touched it and thought of the ingot he left in the palace, and he missed it a little more.

Zhanyu opened his mouth and wanted the guards to go back to the palace and bring Yuanbao out for a run, so it must be very happy, but now it is getting dark, it will be night when Yuanbao is brought here, it is really unnecessary.

Zhan Chen noticed his expression, looked at him questioningly, and the latter spoke his thoughts.

Zhan Chen smiled: "What's the matter, with Mrs. Song here, it's okay for us to live in this temple for a few days. Tomorrow, you can ask someone to bring the ingots."

Zhan Jin laughed lightly at the side: "Speaking of which, we have been here for a long time, but we have not yet visited Mrs. Song, and Lan Shu. She stays on the mountain alone. I don't know if she will annoy us later."

Lan Xi slapped his head, yes, they had so much fun that they forgot about their mother and third sister.

"How about this, let's ask someone to go up the mountain and tell Third Sister to come down, how can we not share this interesting thing with her!"

Song Lanjiu could no longer agree with her words, and immediately sent another person up the mountain to call for someone.

"By the way, we're all out to play, my cousin is still on the mountain, do you want to bring some for her too?" Liu Shuhuan reminded.

Lan Xi nodded, she should leave a chicken for her mother, but this thing belongs to everyone, it depends on whether the Zhan family have any opinions.

Lan Xi thought, and looked at Zhan Jin and Zhan Chen.

"That should be the case. In the next few days, I will have to trouble Mrs. Song to take care of her." Zhan Jin immediately answered with empathy after receiving her gaze.

Zhan Yu was a little greedy, but what Huang Jie said was right, so she also acquiesced.

Zhan Chen has gotten along with Mrs. Song before, and has long regarded her as his elder, let alone have any objections.

In this case, a few people picked out a young pheasant that looked like it hadn't grown up for a long time.

The meat of the wild animal was firm, and everyone was not sure what Liu Yunyao was going to do with the chicken, so they could only choose the meat that was as tender as possible.

When the chief guard gave an order, several guards responded and moved separately.

The creek was not far away, Liu Shuhuan and the others watched the guards handle the pheasant, the brothers and sisters of the Zhan family were afraid of seeing blood, Zhan Jin was holding a wild egg, Zhan Yu and Zhan Chen were holding a small pheasant, and they all hid far away .

Lanxi sighed regretfully looking at the rushing water by the creek, but unfortunately they didn't have sandals, and they couldn't take off their shoes at will, otherwise they would definitely have to go in and step on the water to play.

The guards moved nimbly, drained the blood of the chicken, and cleaned the feathers with a few swipes, but the leather was not damaged at all. It looked like a well-done job.

Although Song Lanjiu and Liu Shuhuan are well-informed, but at this age, they do not have as much experience as Lanxi in some aspects.

Lanxi also killed chickens before, and she had to scald them with hot water before pulling them out. But these guards shed their hairs cleanly and neatly with a few strokes. words.

It seems that these guards are indeed people with real skills, so cool!

Lan Xi was amazed by their neat appearance, as lazy as she was, and she also faintly had the idea of ​​practicing martial arts with the third brother Huanhuan and them.

Lan Xi thought about it carefully, in fact, this idea is quite good.

I have been busy looking for a job recently, and I was in a hurry before posting. Sometimes the inspection is not careful enough. I hope book friends can help catch bugs, and Xiaojiu will correct it in time!
