Krypton gold longevity: a hundred years of life at the beginning

Chapter 118 The Sheriff’s expectations, misunderstanding!

Pengcheng.

While Zhang Hua and the others were having fun fishing, the governor's mansion was also bustling with activity.

Wang Anbo, the governor of Tianshui County, is waiting for the incoming guests at the mansion. The old butler is moving vigorously between the front hall and the lobby, constantly directing the servants and maids.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wang Anbo couldn't help but get up and start walking back and forth. When the housekeeper passed by the door, he grabbed him and asked: "Uncle Fu, General Pei said that General Cheng loves seabass the most, and he will not be happy without seabass at every meal. Have you asked the kitchen to prepare it?"

Butler Fu Bo immediately bowed and said: "Don't worry, sir, this matter has been taken care of a long time ago. There are more than a dozen bass in the kitchen still alive and kicking. We will kill them when the banquet begins to ensure they are fresh."

"That's good, that's good." Wang Anbo muttered for a few times, and then said: "Also, let's make arrangements for the Shenwu Guards' labor force! Don't make any mistakes."

Uncle Fu nodded and replied: "The supplies have been arranged. The young master personally led the team there. There is absolutely no problem."

"Xiang'er went there, okay, then I can rest assured." Knowing that his eldest son led the team, Wang Anbo was relieved a lot.

Next, Wang Anbo asked a few more questions, and the butler answered them one by one. After seeing that there was nothing rude, he waited with peace of mind.

It sounds like peace of mind, but it's only on the surface. It depends on whether you can be transferred to the God's Capital, so how can you really feel at ease?
At this time, Wang Anbo couldn't help but think of the secret order he received from the Chamber of Commerce more than ten days ago: From the moment he received the order, he should immediately prepare the food and grass needed for half a month for the [-]-strong army. post.

Wang Anbo did not doubt the authenticity of the secret order from the Internal Servant, nor did he wonder how the other party knew that he wanted to be transferred to Shendu. This was too simple for the Internal Servant.

Speaking of which, others thought that as the head of a county, he not only held a high and powerful position, but was also far above the sky and the emperor. He should have wished to stay here for the rest of his life.

But only Wang Anbo himself knows the pain. Tianshui County is said to be a county, but it has only four counties, nearly a hundred villages, and a population of more than 20... Because it is close to the Hengjue Mountains and Zhenmo City, what a vast area The population is sparse, the folk customs are fierce, ferocious beasts are rampant, and there are demon turmoils from time to time...

Wang Anbo is really fed up. He is only in his 50s this year, but just by looking at his face, some people believe that he is in his 70s. If he had not been supported by a good martial arts training, he would have been abandoned long ago. Unable to continue, he resigned and retired.

Now, the opportunity to escape from the sea of ​​misery has come. From the county guard to the minister of the first department, although the rank has only been promoted from the fourth rank to the fourth rank, one level, but the capital official is already one level higher, and he can Returning to a prosperous place like the divine capital was something he had dreamed of for a long time.

Therefore, after receiving the secret order, he did not hesitate at all, and asked his staff and left and right to arrange it that day. If the stock of the county guard's mansion was not enough, he would use his own family property and spend his own money to purchase food and grass in the market, even if he went bankrupt. This opportunity must not be let go.

All the preliminary work has been done, and then You Xiaowei came, and the front foot just finished handing over their food and grass, and now Shenwuwei came again... As long as they hand over again, everything will be solved.

Don’t know which one you will tune into?
The Ministry of Husbandry doesn’t expect it, the Ministry of War doesn’t dare to think about it, the Ministry of Works doesn’t understand, there are many big bosses in the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Personnel is too deep. After all the calculations, it seems that the Ministry of Punishment is the most suitable for me!

I don't know if I can fulfill my wish?

"You Xiaowei General Pei arrives~"

As soon as the announcement was made, Wang Anbo immediately sat up in surprise, and after arranging his clothes, he walked out with eight-character steps...

But he said it was by the river outside the city.

The sound of swishing water kept sounding, and Zhang Hua seemed to have become the protagonist of the Panheikeng boss in the video of his previous life. He kept lifting the pole to pull fish, and big fish kept flying up...

Yin Zi on the shore was also very busy. She was said to be lazy, but she was now more diligent than anyone else. Not only did she need to collect the fish caught by Zhang Hua, she also didn't catch any of the fish caught by Cheng Xinchui on the side. .

That's right, Cheng Xinchui caught a fish, and under Zhang Hua's guidance, she caught a lot.

"Sister, it's dark. Hurry up and lift the pole."

Zhang Hua had just harvested a big fish and replenished a nest of bait when he saw Cheng Xinchui's float sinking and immediately alerted him.

"Yinzi, be careful not to scratch the body of the fish. There's another fish."

After receiving the reminder, Cheng Xinchui quickly raised the pole to pull the fish. When he saw the big fish thrown to the shore, he became even more excited and shouted: "It's actually a big bass. This fish is the best when steamed."

Steaming again!

I also want to steam my lips!

Well, it seems that adding another dish would be good... No, Zhang Hua suddenly reacted and said: "Sister, I remember that my father-in-law's title is Lu Guogong! Is this... appropriate for you?"

It is said that during the Li Tang Dynasty, eating carp was banned in the world. His father-in-law was not that powerful, but he still had some requirements for his family!

Sure enough, after hearing what Zhang Hua said, Cheng Xintui stiffened at first, and then said indifferently:

"It's okay, this is not in the Duke's Mansion. Speaking of which, the old man used to like to eat seabass the most. After he was named Lu Guogong by the late emperor, he had to ask the Duke's Mansion to ban eating it for the sake of face. If we eat some outside, he won't care. I won’t say much after seeing it, and outsiders don’t know about it.”

"is it?"

Zhang Hua always felt that it was not that simple, but since his own daughter had said so, what else could he say.

After looking at Xinlan's fish catch and the fish that had just made their nests in the river but no big fish had come, Zhang Hua stopped his fishing rod and said, "Sister, we've almost caught enough fish today. Let's go help Xinlan's fish." Come to the side!"

"This is the end!"

Cheng Xinchui was still a little unfinished. The feeling of catching fish just now was so great. She now understood why Zhang Hua liked fishing so much. Even if she could lift the entire river to catch fish, she couldn't catch any fish like this. It feels comfortable!

Although I really wanted to fish for a while, I saw that there were already a lot of fish on my sister's side, so I had no choice but to stop fishing. Then I returned to my previous calm look, nodded to Zhang Hua and said:
"Okay, that's it for today, Xiaohua, help me put away this pole. I'll use this pole next time."

Come on, I'm really into a trap.

Zhang Hua sighed in his heart and reached out to take the fishing rod that was thrown. He lightly stroked the tail with his finger and said, "Sister, I have already marked it. Speaking of which, sister, you really have a talent for fishing. I have never seen it before." A great newbie like you.”

"Well, it's not bad. It's mainly because you taught me well, Xiaohua." Although Cheng Xintui's tone was relatively calm, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Sister, you are too modest. I gave you a few reminders before, but you basically caught all the fish yourself..."

After the two exchanged fishing experiences, they soon arrived at Xinlan's side. At this time, the problem came again...

Because of the addition of Cheng Xinchui, there were a lot of kitchen utensils that couldn't be taken out. In this way, it would be a bit troublesome to quickly turn these fish catches into delicacies. At least steaming fish was not a good solution.

How to do?
Cheng Xinchui is not good at cooking, and Xinlan has no experience in surviving in the wild. In the end, it is up to Zhang Hua.

I found a large bluestone, swung my sword, dug a round hole in it, and hollowed it out to make it look like a fireplace. It didn't take long for a pot and stove to be integrated into it. Water was added to it and then thin bamboo was used to make it. One pavement, put the strips made of stone slabs...

Looking at the finished steamer, Xinlan's beautiful eyes lit up, and Cheng Xinchui was full of admiration. I heard that every fisherman is versatile, and that's true.

With this example, the next step will be easy. The only difference is to use local materials. There is no shortage of stones by the river, and there is a bamboo forest not far from the bank. It is no problem to build a house, let alone some pots and pans.

It didn't take long before the heat of the barbecue and the fragrance of steaming... Although the main ingredient was only fish, the fragrance already made Ginzi meow non-stop.

She has done a lot of work today, so she can eat more confidently.

A few more minutes passed, and with an order from the chef Xinlan, it was finally time to eat...

However, just as they were about to start, Yin Zi, who couldn't wait the most, suddenly shook his body, turned his head and let out a meow...

"someone is coming!"

Zhang Hua stood up. He had already seen on the map a group of people coming here. Judging from their attire, they seemed to be from the county governor's mansion!

"Xiaohua, sister, go take a look." Cheng Xinchui stood up and said. She was obviously a little unhappy like Yinzi at being interrupted from her meal.

"Sister, wait." Zhang Hua stopped him quickly, and with a thought in his mind, he said: "The Shenwu Guards are camping outside the city. Pengcheng will definitely send people out to work the army. The river we are fishing in is not far from the city. Maybe They are the ones who came."

"People from the Sheriff's Mansion!" Cheng Xintui thought in his mind that this was indeed possible. He immediately frowned and said to Xinlan: "Little sister, take care of yourself. Ah Li, take the money and hide it first."

After hearing what Cheng Xinchui said, Ah Li picked up the silver and walked into the forest. Of course, he also took away half of the grilled fish on the grill.

Xinlan, on her side, also quickly arranged her clothes. The two sisters looked at each other again to make sure there were no stains on their faces before sitting down dignifiedly.

When they go out, they have to pay attention to their appearance. Otherwise, not only the image of their husband's family will be damaged, but also their natal family's etiquette and upbringing will be questioned.

After a while, Zhang Hua saw on the map that the team stopped a hundred meters away, and only the leader came over with two followers.

Zhang Hua nodded secretly. He was a good tutor. He was probably a family member of the county governor...

As the eldest son of the county guard, Wang Yunxiang had an unspoken rule that there was a large army stationed outside the city and the county guard was not allowed to leave the city without authorization, so it was his responsibility to go out of the city to work for the army and invite the general to the banquet.

The mission was successfully completed. As soon as he left the military camp, he suddenly noticed the light of a bonfire in a river not far away. He guessed that people might be fishing here at night, and was afraid that they would collide with the army not far away, so he hurried over... But as the distance increased... As it got closer, a tangy smell of fish hit him, which gave him another thought.

Even the chefs in his own house couldn't be so enticing with this scent. I just heard that General Cheng likes to eat perch, so why not invite this fish maker to cook for a few tables at his house!

When asking for help, Wang Yunxiang also paid attention to some etiquette and dismounted from a distance and walked over. However, when he saw Zhang Hua and the others closer, his eyes lit up... When did Pengcheng have such a beautiful woman!
However, when he saw that both women's hair was tied up, he immediately felt sad. It was a pity that they were married to other people.

After returning to normal, he noticed Zhang Hua beside him, and immediately bowed and said: "I'm sorry to disturb everyone. I'm the governor of the county, Wang Yunxiang. I don't know what to call my little brother."

Zhang Hua cupped his fists and said, "Zhang Hua, the commander of the Shenwu Guards."

Shen Wuwei!
Wang Yunxiang was shocked. It was impossible for the Shenwu Guards to take their families on an expedition. The other two women must be female generals in the army. Moreover, several of them could still go out to fish and cook after the army camped. Their identities were by no means simple. They were all ordinary people. Can't do that.

At this moment, he reflected on his behavior just now. Fortunately, apart from a brief glance at the two women, there was no other rudeness.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Wang Yunxiang glanced at the seabass placed aside, and with a thought in his heart, he continued: "It turns out that the brothers of Shenwuwei are here. I'm sorry that I was frustrated just now. The two female generals are also very capable. They can actually put them together." The seabass is cooked so deliciously that it really makes people salivate... I have long heard that General Cheng loves seabass very much, but now it seems..."

"and many more."

Before Wang Yunxiang could continue, Cheng Xinzhui stood up and interrupted: "The general loves seabass, who did you listen to?"

Cheng Xinchui shouldn't have said anything as he was out and not wearing armor, but it was a matter of Cheng Jinshan's privacy that was fine in Shendu, but how could anyone know about it in Peng City, which was far to the northwest?
Seeing Cheng Xinzhui's solemn expression, Wang Yunxiang's heart suddenly trembled. After hesitating for a moment, he cupped his fists and said, "I don't know how to call the female general. Is there any misunderstanding about this?"

"The General Cheng you are talking about is my father."

Cheng Xinchui bowed slightly, and then explained: "Young Master Wang should know my father's title, so why would he like to eat perch? Even our sisters have a lot of taboos because of this. This perch was made by my younger brother for unknown reasons. Please also ask Mr. Wang I can tell you that I learned about this rumor from various sources."

Duke Lu!sea ​​bass!

Wang Yunxiang's head was dizzy and he blurted out: "General Pei made a mistake, father..."
