Confiscated and exiled, the down-and-out general became the queen
Chapter 31 Finding Sweet Potatoes
The villager looked up and saw a woman who looked like a fairy. After taking a look, he quickly lowered his head and with trembling hands removed the grass covering it, revealing something inside.
When Xiao Lengyue saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Seeing Xiao Lengyue didn't say anything, the villagers said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, this is... this is what I dug from the mountain... It's edible."
After he said this, he was afraid that she would not believe him, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, this is not poisonous. I ate it for a long time before I dared to sell it. I..."
"How much did it cost, I bought it."
Before the villager finished speaking, Xiao Lengyue spoke. She looked at the sweet potatoes inside and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
The villagers thought they had heard it wrong and looked at Xiao Lengyue in disbelief.
Xiao Lengyue noticed that there was a sack next to his backpack, so she pointed at it and asked, "Are you selling this too?"
The villager nodded blankly and opened the sack with trembling hands. Xiao Lengyue saw that there was yam lying inside.
This time, she couldn't help it, raised the corner of her mouth, and asked: "Uncle, I want all these things, how much?"
The villager came back to his senses and asked in surprise, "Are you saying that you want all of them?"
Xiao Lengyue nodded, "Yes, I want them all. How much?"
When the villagers heard this, they said happily, "If the girl wants all of them, you can give me five hundred coins."
Xiao Lengyue took out a tael of silver from her purse and handed it to him, "Here you go. The rest of the money is my money for buying your backpack."
When the villagers heard this, they said happily: "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.
My dear, I will carry you on my back."
Xiao Lengyue took a look, nodded, pointed at Song Ye and said, "Just help me carry it there."
When the villagers saw the official over there, they seemed to understand something, nodded, picked up their backpacks and followed Xiao Lengyue.
When Old Mrs. Song saw her buying so many things, she was stunned for a moment, especially when she saw that none of the things were familiar to her, she looked at Xiao Lengyue in confusion.
When the villagers saw how Old Lady Song looked, they thought she was going to pick a fight with him, and some of them were afraid to leave.
Seeing this, Xiao Lengyue waved her hand and said, "Uncle, thank you, you can go now."
When the villagers saw that Old Lady Song did not stop them, they left. After walking a few steps, they turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they were not arguing.
After walking for a distance, he turned his head and looked back. Seeing that there was really no quarrel, he smiled foolishly and left.
Old Madam Song looked at him and asked in confusion, "He is worried that I would scold Xiaoyue?"
When Song Ye and Mrs. Song heard this, they curled their lips. She really looked like she was about to curse someone just now.
When Old Lady Song saw their expressions, she guessed what they meant. She explained, "I didn't mean to scold Xiaoyue. I was just a little curious about what these things were."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Lengyue, "Xiaoyue, mother really didn't mean to scold you."
Xiao Lengyue: "Mom, I know."
At this time, Song Mingxi and his friends also came back after buying food. When they saw that Xiao Lengyue bought that lumps of earth, they smiled smugly and said sarcastically, "Beggars are beggars. They only eat things that are not presentable."
When Mrs. Song heard this, she was about to refute, but she was stopped by Old Lady Song, "Zhiqi, watch the show."
Mrs. Song turned around suspiciously and saw Song Ye standing up. She said coldly, "It's better to eat dirt than to eat human blood, right?"
When Song Mingxi saw Song Ye, he stepped back in fear and then ran away.
Although he is his third uncle, the person he fears the most is him.
Song Ye was afraid that Xiao Lengyue would think too much, so he came to her side. Just as he was about to comfort her, he saw her staring at the things in the backpack with great interest, and licking the corner of her lips unconsciously.
Song Ye looked at her and said with a smile, "Is it delicious?"
Xiao Lengyue nodded. "It's delicious, soft and tasty, with a light sweetness. Most importantly, it's very filling."
Hearing this, Song Ye was shocked. "You said, this clod of earth has a strong sense of fullness?"
Xiao Lengyue stared at the sweet potato and said, "Yes.
The thing you are talking about is not called a lump of earth, but a sweet potato."
What Song Ye was thinking at this moment was that if there was this thing at the border, the soldiers would not have to go hungry.
But when he thought of General Leng who was staying at the border, his expression became a little solemn.
General Leng is the father of the late queen. His whole family was sent there to garrison there. Now, he has been removed from his position by the new emperor.
Will they also attack General Leng and his men? If so, that border will be in danger.
If there is no one to guard the Leng family, those barbarians will launch a large-scale attack on the Yuan Dynasty.
Xiao Lengyue had no idea that he had thought so much. At this moment, all she had in her eyes were roasted sweet potatoes, boiled sweet potatoes, sweet potato porridge, and candied sweet potatoes.
Because I grew up eating at many people's homes in my previous life, I am particularly envious of those who can have enough food to eat.
Over time, she fell in love with food. Not only could she eat it, but she could also cook it, and the food tasted pretty good.
After joining the army, she worked in logistics for a while. During that time, she learned all the skills of a chef.
Seeing that she was staring at the dirt on the ground, Mrs. Song said worriedly, "Mom, Xiaoyue must have been hit hard by Uncle San, right?"
Old Mrs. Song said with a smile: "Take a look first before you say that."
Mrs. Song was a little confused. After looking carefully, she found that Xiao Lengyue's expression was very similar to Tianrui's expression when he wanted to eat.
Song Tianrui didn't understand what they were talking about, so he ran over and grabbed Xiao Lengyue's hand, saying softly, "Aunt, is this delicious?"
Xiao Lengyue nodded, "It's delicious. I'll make it for you in the evening. It's too late now."
Hearing this, Song Tianrui smiled and said, “Thank you, auntie, you are so kind.”
Being interrupted by Song Tianrui, Xiao Lengyue lifted the backpack onto the wooden cart and put the yams on it.
About half a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Wu came back with his men, followed by a mule cart and a coachman.
After Zhang Wu unloaded all the things, he started calling out names to pick up the goods.
When we arrived at Xiao Lengyue's group, we saw that they were carrying back several thick clothes.
At this time, others remembered that it was already getting a little chilly in the mornings and evenings, and it would definitely start to get colder after a while.
When Song Mingliang thought of this, he went to find Zhang Wu. After being scolded by Zhang Wu, he returned dejectedly.
When everyone saw this, they felt disappointed, but they thought that there was still a month left, so they could wait until they reached the next town and buy it.
They didn't know that the next town was a month away.
After Zhang Wu distributed all the things, he started to ask people to pack up. They needed to stay in the dilapidated temple on the mountain tonight.
"Do you have to?"
