Wear it quickly, it's better to live a miserable life than to die
Chapter 310: Eastern Expedition Meets Western Expedition 3
Ding Yi, who is less than 1.5 meters tall, suddenly felt under tremendous pressure.
Bai Kang is not easy to deceive, but she has a lot of supplies, so Bai Kang will not kill her for the time being;
That’s right, don’t even think about it.
In the following days, Ding Yi ate and slept, and chatted with his parents, elders, brothers and sisters at home.
The person in the dark went to report to Bai Kang, and after several times, the person in the dark retreated.
In this era, even the upper class nobles still had to eat the same things because of the backward productivity.
Ding Yi is not the kind of person who would let herself be wronged. Even though her cooking skills are backward, she would taste the food if it is good, and cook the food if it is good.
I did it myself, using the most clumsy way, with the spirit of Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs, and made many dark dishes. Among all the dark dishes, I had a flash of inspiration and made a few pretty good dishes.
The truth is, crops are in short supply, and so are seasonings.
Ding Yi wanted to take advantage of the time when the expedition went west to go and take a look.
So, she started practicing martial arts.
Then go west to search.
Bai Kang will go, and Bai Kang will definitely take her with him.
I just don’t know how many soldiers Bai Kang will bring with him.
Ding Yi estimated that it would not be much, as Qin was still fighting foreign wars. Bai Kang tried his best to dissuade him. The king invited him, but Bai Kang refused. He was invited again, but he refused again.
Instead of wasting time in the country, it is better to take the initiative to go global.
In order to get Bai Kang to go, Ding Yi pretended to be Bai Kang from underground and told Bai Kang that there were abundant species all the way west, and it would be a great blessing for the Qin State if they could obtain them, as it would save the people from starvation.
If nothing is found, it is not impossible for Ding Yi to secretly take out some.
Many things are created from nothing, accumulated bit by bit.
……
Ding Yi was well-behaved and cute, and often made the female masters of the Bai family laugh. After the kitchen exploded several times, the people in the kitchen guarded it tightly and knelt on the ground begging Ding Yi not to enter the kitchen.
Someone who was addicted to cooking sat outside the kitchen with an umbrella. He narrated something while smelling the messy smell coming from the kitchen. He stood up and wanted to rush in.
"This smell is more like a kitchen killer than me."
In the end, both sides made concessions. Ding Yi could enter the kitchen but could not touch anything in the kitchen. She could instruct the chefs on what to do but she could not put her hands out of her sleeves.
After much persuasion, Ding Yi finally had a few things he could eat openly.
The Qin people's current cooking methods are mainly steaming and stewing. In addition, there is also more like a big pot of stew, which does not pay much attention to the combination.
It’s not that the ingredients are bad. All the ingredients that can enter the Bai family can be considered top-notch ingredients.
It’s just that Ding Yi is not used to the one-pot cooking method, which easily leads to flavor contamination. It is also not like the later ones, which have rich seasonings and can be dominated by other flavors, emphasizing color, aroma and taste.
Nowadays, people pay more attention to the taste of food itself.
Foods of various flavors were cooked together in one pot. Just thinking about the smell made Ding Yi feel uncomfortable.
Who wants to eat coarse grains if they can eat fine bran? Coarse grains are a tonic to improve the stomach occasionally.
After Ding Yi enjoyed the delicious food prepared in the kitchen and mingled with other members of the Bai family, Bai Kang asked someone to invite Ding Yi.
The first thing they asked was: "How much food and fodder do you have?"
Ding Yi sat down cross-legged, "Let me take a look."
He was mumbling to himself and talking in a mysterious manner.
Bai Kang sat calmly, the arc of his fingers rubbing against each other revealed his nervousness.
Ding Yi was sweating profusely and wiped it casually, and a drop of sweat splashed onto Bai Kang's hand.
"I asked the black-faced man, and he said that with a million troops, three years' needs would be no problem." Underground Bai Kang has now been given a new nickname by Ding Yi.
Bai Kang was shocked, and his face turned dark again when he heard Ding Yi's description.
The black-faced man, are you talking about him?
"Okay, I understand, let's go down."
Ding Yi walked to the door and Bai Kang called her again.
"Go back and tell your grandmother, pack your bags, and leave soon."
"Oh!" Ding Yi pretended not to understand, smiled sweetly, and continued to walk out. Suddenly she stopped, picked up her skirt and rushed back, "Grandfather, what did you say? You want to take me with you?"
Ding Yi crossed his hands together and clenched them tightly, revealing his nervousness. His body turned around and around, "Father, can I go? I feel like I'm dreaming."
Ding Yi pinched himself and jumped up in pain, looking at Bai Kang with tears in his eyes, who was smiling lovingly with his head tilted to one side.
"Father, you are making fun of others."
Bai Kang regained his seriousness.
Ding Yi poked his finger and asked the question in his heart: "Grandfather, is the time the black-faced man mentioned now? It will take a few years, so why does Grandfather want to leave now?"
Bai Kang glanced at Ding Yi nonchalantly, his angular face revealed a stern expression, and his tone was domineering: "The safest way is to nip the danger in the bud. It doesn't matter whether they come or not, we can go over and take a look first. Didn't you say there are a lot of good things there?"
The Qin State was at war all year round and was the undisputed overlord of this land. However, because of the constant wars, the people had no chance to rest and recuperate and suffered terribly.
The most important reason why Bai Kang refused the king's request to go to war was to "give the people a chance to recuperate."
He refused to go into battle several times, but no one sympathized with his thoughts and only suspected that he was disobeying the emperor's orders.
Ten days later, Bai Qi came to Ding Yi again and took one year's rations for the 100,000-strong army from her and sent them to the military camp.
Bai Kang, the butcher, was cruel to outsiders but like a brother and a father to his own soldiers.
Two months later, Ding Yi and his mother hugged each other and cried bitterly, reluctantly parting with each other. Then he followed Bai Kang and five thousand soldiers and embarked on the expedition to the west.
What was taken away from the Bai family included not only Ding Yi's personal belongings, but also two cooks.
On the way, Ding Yi asked Bai Kang: "Father, how did you convince the king to let you leave?"
With Bai Kang's ability, it would not be safe to leave him anywhere. The safest thing to do is to leave him in the hands of his own people.
Bai Kang waved his whip and pointed at a young man 20 meters behind him on the left, "You see that man, the king's youngest son Yingdu."
Ding Yi took a casual look at the dark and skinny boy and was not interested.
"Father, please tell me. I want to listen. I want to learn from you."
Bai Kang looked at Ding Yi meaningfully, and said in a deep tone, "I said that the people of Qin are suffering, and I will travel west to find a chance for them to survive, so that they will not starve to death or freeze to death in this era, so that the Qin army's manpower will not be reduced due to non-human factors, and contribute to Qin's unification of the world. You can see that the king is very interested in you, so he asked Prince Yingdu to go with you."
Ding Yi pretended as if he didn't understand and frowned deeply, looking at Bai Kang in embarrassment.
There was a flash of madness in Bai Kang's eyes, and his smile was frightening.
Ding Yi hunched his shoulders and looked at Bai Kang cautiously until Bai Kang put on his previous serious expression again.
"Father, I'm afraid."
"Don't be afraid, Grandfather will protect you, unless you..." Bai Kang paused, staring at Ding Yi, not missing any changes in her expression, "Unless Bai Hehua, you lied."
With a jolt in his heart, Ding Yi realized that the character he had been pretending to be could not be hidden from Bai Kang's sharp gaze.
