Exiled to Lingnan, my plants are miraculous

Chapter 4 The First Dinner in Exile

Chapter 4 The First Dinner in Exile

"Boss, there is a woman named Lin Yue outside who wants to exchange for some salt, and she also brought a fish."

The person who reported the report really hoped that the boss would agree. Although everyone was well-off, as the lowest-level officials, they were not always able to eat and drink as much as they wanted. The monthly salary and money collected were basically used to support the family, so I sincerely hope that there will be more people like this on the road to exile who can use money to bribe.

Yang Dajun's mind immediately resurfaced of the hard-working figure picking wild vegetables, and he was also curious about what a woman who surrendered voluntarily looked like.

"Let her in!"

The clerk retired happily.

He has a decent appearance, sharp eyes, and a sinister aura lingering all over his body. A timid person will definitely faint from fear. However, Lin Yue, who grew up in the apocalypse, has never seen anyone. It is safest to show it on the surface like this, because no matter what Always be vigilant.

Lin Yue was observing Yang Dajun, and Yang Dajun was also looking at Lin Yue with firm eyes. She saw that there was no fear in her eyes, and she always had the right smile on her face. She was indeed not a simple woman.

"I've met Mr. Yang. It's going to be hard for Mr. Yang on the way from the capital to Lingnan."

"I dare not mention the hard work. It is Yang's duty to escort the prisoners. It would be a pity that a lady like Miss Lin Yue would be implicated and exiled."

"When you enjoy the glory of the family, you have to be conscious of sharing weal and woe. This is the fish I caught by the creek today. I will give it to my brothers as a side dish. I hope you will accept it as a small token of respect."

Yang Dajun's originally sharp pupils shrank, but he quickly withdrew his gaze. Lin Yue held hundreds of taels of silver notes in her hand, and the unique golden thread shone dazzlingly under the candlelight.

Lin Hongyuan's crime was corruption and bribery. His house was confiscated by the emperor, and he was able to bribe people with hundreds of taels. Sure enough, this crime was not unjust.

He selectively ignored that the Lin family was originally an aristocratic family with a rich background. Coupled with the dowry brought by the married daughter-in-law, their wealth was beyond their imagination.

In fact, most of the small portion of the hundreds of taels that Lin Yue had collected from Zheng Xiao's body was still with him, so giving it away would ensure safety along the way, so there was no need to part with it.

"Miss Lin Yue is very generous. I like to deal with people like you. As long as you don't behave like monsters along the way, I guarantee that the people under my command will not cause you trouble.

Erhu, come in, take this and divide it among the brothers. This is the wine money that Miss Lin has prepared for everyone. Prepare a condiment and send it in. "

Yang Dajun twisted his hand and divided out the three hundred taels. You should know that Lin Yuetong took a total of five hundred taels. However, considering that there were thirty or forty people escorted this time, there wouldn't be much left to divide.

"Brother Yang, I don't know when your next supply will be. There are too many children in my family. Walking for a long time is not good for their growth. My family wants to buy an ox cart for transportation. Do you think it can be done?"

Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Yang Dajun had accepted her bribe. There were too many children in the Lin family. Those under the age of five needed to be carried by adults. The journey to Lingnan was thousands of miles. Without transportation tools, the Lin family's Sooner or later, people will die!

Yang Dajun pondered for a moment, and was not surprised by Lin Yue's request. Lin Yue was not the first or the last person to escort prisoners or bribe officials over the years, and the request he made was not too excessive.

"Next time we pass through Lucheng for supplies, you go with the officers and soldiers who buy supplies. We will have to go for about three days. Then tell Erhu to call you.

By the way, the weather in Lingnan is hot and there are many snakes, rats, insects and ants. Every year, many people die from poisonous snakes and countless swamps. "

"Thank you, Brother Yang, for reminding me. Lin Yue knows."

Lin Yue carried the condiments and hummed a ditty back to the Lin family's residence. Sure enough, money can make a fool of himself. This law applies everywhere!

When Lin Yue came back, the stove had been set up, the water in the bamboo tube was already smoking, a few children were squatting on the ground playing with crabs, and the elders were also resting nearby.

"Sister Yue, I heard from your aunt that you went to the official's place. Are you okay?"

Mrs. Min worriedly stepped forward to check on her daughter. She didn't know who this girl was following. She was naturally fearless. Those officials were all licking blood from their knives, so how could they be so easy to get along with.

"It's okay, I just went to deliver a fish and exchanged some oil and salt for it. Uncle, Yang Dajun has promised to take me with him when we resupply in three days. I'm going to buy an ox cart, some clay pots, and some more Some medicines to prevent snakes, rats, insects and ants, I heard from Yang Guancha that many people die from snake venom every year."

"Then it's your turn as a little girl. Your father and your brother are not stronger than you. How can a girl succeed!"

When Mrs. Min heard that her daughter was going to the city alone to do shopping, she was immediately angry.

"Yes, sister, it is inconvenient for you to be a woman, and you are in danger, so let your brothers go!"

Lin Yue was very envious of the Lin family's unity, harmony, and mutual understanding. It was from the memory of the original owner that she learned that the Lin family got along well with each other, so she decided to go into exile with them.

"Officer Yang said that I can only go alone, but there will definitely be officers and other people who bribe them. Don't worry! Everything will be fine.

Oops, I'm so hungry, it's time to cook. "Seeing everyone getting busy, I took a long breath.

Lin Yue asked her nephew Lin Daxuan to choose a flat, thin granite stone and build a stove.

Soon the stone slab was burned red, and a layer of lard was scraped with bamboo slices to lubricate the stone.

"Chi! Chi!"

Three small fish were placed on the stone slab, and the unique smell of fish spread everywhere, making everyone who was already hungry salivate.

Just then, there was a sharp cry.

"Grandma, grandma, I want to eat meat too, I want to eat meat too."

"Eat, eat, eat, you will know all day long that your father is dead, why did you give birth to this group of debt collectors?

I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes to become your grandma. Short-lived old man, if you open your eyes and look, these unfilial things will know how to suck my blood and eat my flesh. Oh, oh, oh, no more. "

To give birth to such a debt collector, it must be because your field was damaged. My son is so obedient. Why did you let such a loser come in? Our ancestors of the Liu family should open their eyes. "

"Ooooooo, grandma is a bad person, mother, help me!"

"Mom, Dabao didn't mean it. Please calm down. The child is still young, so don't break him." The woman next to him smiled cautiously, with timid eyes.

"Aren't you capable? Go to the Lin family and borrow some for us to eat!"

Is this when no one else can hear it?

but.

"Can you share some fish with us? We, our grandfather and grandson, are old, young and weak. Please share some with me.

You have picked so many wild vegetables, crabs, and fish. You can’t finish them all, so just share some with us. My son is really hungry. "

This was also the first time for the Lin family to encounter such a confident person asking for food, and he described himself as so pitiful and innocent.

Everyone looked at each other and didn't know how to answer. I felt uncomfortable if I shared it with them, but I didn't know what to do if I didn't share it with them.
  However, the Lin family's movements and scent could not be hidden from everyone.

"Fish, there are fish in the river, hahahaha!"

A half-grown boy who was spying on the Lin family got carried away and shouted loudly, alerting all the exiled prisoners.

Soon someone jumped into the river.

"Plop, plop!"

"I got it, I got it, I got it!"

In the blink of an eye, a large number of people rushed towards the narrow creek, and the originally crystal clear water was instantly muddied.

"Well, there are fish in the creek. You can catch them yourself."

Lin Daxuan Tiehanhan pointed at the stream with an expression as if I had helped you.

The timid woman was stunned. In the past, she had always been successful in doing this. How could she get such an answer today?

"Old man, you really want me to die! You bitch, why did my son marry a loser like you? He can't even borrow anything. What else can you do? Sooner or later, I'll ask my son to divorce you. It’s...”

Everyone in the Lin family heard the sounds of beatings and scoldings, and they all said it was bad luck to choose a place close to them.

"Auntie, what is Sangmen Star?"

"Auntie, is bitch a curse word?"

Lin Yue, who was tying crabs, saw two bright nieces and nephews looking at her.

Lin Yue secretly said something bad, it is better for the child to be simple.

"Don't pay attention to others. How about Auntie cooking crabs for you?"

The greedy cat, attracted by the scent, was instantly diverted.

"Okay! Okay! Auntie, the fish smells so good!"

"Eating crabs!"

Lin Yue threw the tied crabs into the stove, fried the fish until both sides were golden, and divided them into three bamboo tubes.

I grabbed a handful of washed wild vegetables, and I couldn't waste the grease on the stone board. I put a little salt on it. The wild vegetables were crisp and refreshing, and they went very well with the meal, but everyone only had a hard black steamed bun.

"Gulu, Gulu."

The milky white fish soup is filled with green wild vegetables, which is fragrant.

"Move your chopsticks!"

Lin Hongyuan saw everyone staring at the bamboo tube intently, smiled, picked up a chopstick of wild vegetables, and announced.

"Yeah, delicious!"

Lin Daxuan usually disliked eating vegetables, but now his eyes lit up and he could not drop his chopsticks every time.

The chopsticks flew around, picking up wild vegetables again and again, and soon the basket was full.

"Hiccup!"

Lin Yue covered her mouth because she was full.

No wonder Lin Yue couldn't control herself. One hundred and fifty years after the end of the world, compressed biscuits were used to fill her stomach, and the only edible vegetables were hydroponically grown in the institute, which had no taste at all.

"Let me see if the crab is edible."

Lin Yue hid her red face in embarrassment and kept thinking in her heart.

It’s such a shame, it’s such a shame. The mysterious and unpredictable image before can no longer be maintained.
