Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 14: The Tsundere Fatty

When they arrived at the dilapidated temple, Yuwen Kan and his servant had already started a fire. Yuwen Kan's clothes were hung on the shelf next to it. The guy was sitting next to the fire in only his undershirt, completely ignoring the women in the carriage.

Xie Shi was so angry that he wanted to rush up and punch him but was stopped by Yun Zhuo, "Brother Xie, don't bother with him. He was spoiled by his family and his behavior is a little unconventional but he is not a bad person.

I'll go talk to him, and you can go and settle Madam Li."

Xie Shi walked away with a gloomy expression. Yun Zhuo exhaled a breath of foul air, and a string of mist floated in the condensed air.

When Xie Shi brought Li Yuening and his servant into the ruined temple, Yuwen Kan had already put on his outer robe.

After Xie Shi settled Li Yuening, he left the temple again. He bumped into A Yu who was carrying two wild rabbits. Seeing Xie Shi's robe hem, he remembered her husband's behavior and said in a low voice, "Thank you, my husband. I was very rude before. I will apologize to you."

"It's hard for you to follow an unreliable master." Xie Shiben didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect A Yu to bump into him and couldn't help but ridicule him.

A Yu would definitely defend her husband against Xie Shi, an outsider. "My husband is still young and has a young mind. When he meets a man with such a distinguished demeanor as Xie, he naturally wants to make friends with him, so his behavior is a little biased." A Yu couldn't continue speaking, saying that it was too shameful that her husband deliberately soiled someone else's clothes in order to attract other people's attention.

Xie Shi looked A Yu up and down. The boy was about the same age as him, and his eyes were firm. "You are a loyal person. Come with me to move things."

Qingyi and Feiyi are not here, so we just happen to be short of someone to do odd jobs.

A Yu pursed his lips, folded the legs of the rabbit in his hand, put it by the door, and chased after Xie Shi.

Xie Shi took down two wooden boxes from the back of the carriage and raised his chin, "Now, move them in." Then he carried one on his shoulder and walked in front.

Ayu obediently carried one and followed behind.

Xie Shi picked up two dead hares, only the wounds on their legs were visible. "The hares all hid in the rain, but you caught them so quickly, you're quite skilled!"

"It's just a trifle. It's still not as good as my husband's." A Yu did not miss any opportunity to praise Yu Wen Kan.

Xie Shi chuckled and said nothing.

Yuwen Kan saw his personal followers and Xie Shi coming in, talking and laughing. The things that Ayu was carrying were not theirs at all, so he immediately became unhappy, "Ayu, are you mine or his?"

"My dear, please calm down." A Yu put down the box and ran to Yu Wenkan.

"Mr. Yuwen is a man of noble character. He even teaches his servants well. I envy him very much." Xie Shi took the opportunity to flatter Yuwen Kan with a purpose. There were still 7.8 or days left to reach Nanjing, so he tried to make the best use of his resources.

Yuwen Kan's eyes lit up. He was not very old and was usually flattered by others. Most of the people around him fawned on him. He finally saw a handsome man with more personality than him, but he didn't like him. The young man's self-esteem was hurt.

Unexpectedly, someone would take the initiative to talk to him today. Yuwen Kan raised his head proudly and said, "The people in my Cangjian Villa are extraordinary, and my servants all have their own skills." Having said this, he paused. Now, Ayu is the only one left by his side.

"Ayu, Ayu is good at cooking. I'm not exaggerating. Everything he cooks is delicious. Do you know that I only bring him among all the servants I have?"

Xie Shishi shook his head in confusion, with an expectant gleam in his eyes.

Yuwen Kan was very pleased. "With him here, I won't starve even in the wilderness. Just wait and see."

Yuwen Kan looked at Xie Shi and didn't quite believe whether it was true or not.

He waved to A Yu, "A Yu, show them your skills, or they will think I'm lying."

A Yu was helpless: My dear, did you really not hear that others were speaking in a sarcastic way or were you pretending not to hear it? We don’t have to rush to be someone’s slave. After all, our Cangjian Villa is a famous family.

With so many people, two hares were not enough. Yuwen Kan wanted Ayu to hunt two more pheasants. Xie Shi pointed to one of the boxes and said, "Ayu, right? Take a look here to see if there is anything you can use?"

Xie Shi calculated that the fat boy Yuwen Kan would not treat him badly, so he provided the food and Yuwen Kan provided the manpower, which was not a disadvantage. The box was full of food, and the vegetables were not durable, so there was more meat than vegetables.

A Yu's hands were strong and thin, with raised spots on the back of his hands and calluses on his palms. These calluses were different from those on the palms of ordinary people's right hands when they practiced sword fighting. They were caused by years of contact with boiling oil from flipping the wok.

There is no chef who doesn't care about ingredients. Ayu's eyes lit up and a list of dish names came out in his mind as he looked at them.

I couldn't wait to start, but my enthusiasm cooled when I saw there were no pots or stoves around.

Xie Shi seemed to understand A Yu's thoughts. He opened another box and revealed a straw-wrapped clay basin and jar. Although rough, they were practical.

"Thank you for your thorough preparations."

Unless it is an urgent matter, Xie Shi will be fully prepared before going out. He doesn't like to eat dry food.

Yun Zhuo and Feng Qian had already changed into clean clothes and walked out from behind the statue, and their voices could be heard from inside.

Yun Zhuo took over the work in the hands of the two people, "Go change into dry clothes first. Brother Feng, do you have any pills to keep out the cold? I'll buy a few."

Feng Qian waved his hand, "Brother Yun, you underestimate me. Although I'm just a traveling doctor, I also have a chivalrous heart. I'll take care of everyone's medicine along the way." After saying that, he opened the medicine box, took out a porcelain bottle and poured a pill for each person. Li Yuening didn't eat it and saved it. This was a habit she developed when supplies were scarce.

"Brother Feng is righteous."

No one can be sure of getting sick when traveling outside. The mountains are high and the roads are long, and there is a shortage of medical care and medicine, so the mortality rate in Dajin is very high.

Li Yuening looked at a group of young people of similar age who were still full of energy in such a simple environment and couldn't help but look at them a few more times.

Xie Shi's hair was still dripping with water, and his clothes were tightly attached to his chest and abdomen. Li Yuening looked away and waved to Xiao Sui'er, "Go to the carriage and get some handkerchiefs."

"Ah? How many?"

Li Yuening, "Take as many as you can get." She didn't use any of the fine silk handkerchiefs that were originally prepared for her to use on the road. There were so many people here that it wouldn't be good to give them all to Xie Shi alone, as her intention would be too obvious.

Xiao Sui'er quickly came in holding a thin handkerchief, and hid it in her arms for fear of getting it wet, "Madam, do you really want to give it to me?"

Xiaosui'er touched the fine gauze and felt reluctant to part with it. She didn't know whether they would be able to use such a good thing in the future, so she wanted to save it for her wife.

“Don’t worry. Staying with your wife will ensure that you won’t go hungry or cold.” Li Yuening looked at Xiaosui’er’s face with a look of pain on it and chuckled.

The attention of the people who were praising each other nearby was attracted.

Li Yuening said generously, "I have some dry towels here, everyone can wipe off the rain, it's better than nothing."

He motioned to Xiaosui'er to hand the thing over.

Among these people, Xiao Sui'er had only spoken to Xie Shi, and he was the most embarrassed. She ran over and said, "Mr. Xie, please wipe yourself quickly. Don't catch a cold. My wife still needs your care."

Xie Shi looked towards Li Yuening and the girl nodded.
