Substitute Bride: The Gentle Husband of the Evil Girl is Crazy and Wild
Chapter 253 Welcome the General Back
When it was time for dinner, there was a lot of noise outside and there was no need to light the pot for the time being.
Li Xiaoyu bit the remaining half of a steamed bun. She stood by the accounting office in the kitchen, scanning the scene outside with a pair of eyes that deliberately showed murderous intent.
Among those soldiers in uniform, a small number were injured.
The injuries were either on the head, arms, and legs, and some had cloth wrapped around their waists.
Watching them telling jokes and eating with big mouthfuls of rice, they seemed to be able to eat a mouthful of hot rice, and it seemed that they didn't care about any injuries.
She lowered her eyes and was about to sit back behind the stove.
Old Yao thought that this kid cooked very well and he was quite satisfied with the dish today.
Like a buddy, he put his arm around Li Xiaoyu's shoulder and walked out casually. Who doesn't know Lao Yao when coming here to eat?
Look at him hugging a little brother and joking with him while eating.
"Hey, when did Lao Yao get a tender little brother?"
Old Yao kicked the stool the man was sitting on and shouted rudely, "Stop talking nonsense. This kid was sent by Vice General Lu. If you make a fool of yourself and get beaten by a military stick, don't blame me for not warning you."
Li Xiaoyu used a chest wrap, she crossed her arms and looked at Lao Yao defiantly.
Puzzled, he asked, "Lao Yao, I'm eating steamed buns, what are you doing?"
Lao Yao had no ill intentions. He was full of swear words: "I want to introduce them to you. Your pot is very good. Whoever comes to eat in the evening will come."
He then whispered to Li Xiaoyu, "Some people here want to eat good food at night and are very generous with their money. You can come and cook for them and earn a few more bucks."
The rule is to have two meals a day, but some people tend to get hungry at night.
If you want to eat after dinner time, no matter who you are, you have to pay the kitchen staff to cook the food.
This is equivalent to an unwritten rule.
The money earned depends on the attitude of the manager. An honest manager will hand over the money, while a manager with some ideas will keep it for himself.
Old Yao was an upright man. He handed over everything, but would let his subordinates take a penny or two for it.
After all, his monthly salary is much higher than that of an ordinary cook.
After listening to Lao Yao's explanation, Li Xiaoyu looked back at Xiao Wang who was assigned to wash the dishes, and asked warily: "Why did you introduce this good job to me?"
Old Yao laughed twice and said to her in the Sichuan dialect: "Silly child, as soon as I heard your accent, I knew we were from the same place. When fellow villagers meet, we must help each other."
Li Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows, "Are you from Shu too?"
"Of course," Lao Yao nodded proudly.
As he spoke, Li Xiaoyu looked at the food the soldiers were eating, which was not typical Shu cuisine.
She asked her doubts.
Old Yao took her to inspect the food on the table and said to her, "There are people from all over the world in the military camp. Not everyone can adapt to our Shu cuisine, so I made a compromise."
"That's it, I understand."
Old Yao thought she was a newborn baby and protected her like an older brother.
"You have a lot to learn."
Although Lao Yao seems careless, he is very careful about the affairs in the kitchen. When Lao Lu came to get food for Gu Fei, he wiped the lunch box again and again.
He also told Lao Lu: "Today's steamed buns are very good. If the prince wants to eat more, come and let me know."
"Okay," Lao Lu took the lunch box and greeted Xiao Wang and Li Xiaoyu.
Ask them seriously: "Are you still adapting?"
Li Xiaoyu adapted quite well to the situation, but Xiao Wang was not so comfortable with it. He couldn't say anything and could only nod.
Seeing that they were in good condition, Lao Lu left with peace of mind.
After the meal, there were a lot of dishes left. Xiao Wang and several other people in the kitchen were washing dishes. Seeing that there was nothing to do for the time being, Li Xiaoyu went over to help.
When they meet new people, the people in the kitchen are always willing to give them some basic knowledge.
"Let me tell you, our general is not only very capable, but also has extremely high standards for himself."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Wang put the washed dishes on the wooden board.
"The general is strict with himself. His daily diet is the same as ours. He is not like those bastards who want to occupy Shu and plunder the people's wealth."
There were too many people in the camp, so the dishes and chopsticks were not placed on the table like at home.
Instead, a wooden board was placed in the corner, and the overlapping bowls were placed along the corner to prevent them from collapsing.
Li Xiaoyu wiped the water off her hands and listened to their conversation while arranging things.
When it was their turn to eat, Xiao Wang was so hungry that he ate like a wolf. Li Xiaoyu had thought that he wouldn't be too hungry after eating a steamed bun.
After she finished cleaning up everything, her stomach couldn't hold it anymore.
Xiao Wang and I were like two starving ghosts reincarnated, stuffing food into our mouths with big mouthfuls.
This scene made others laugh.
"Don't worry, there are still buns in the pot. You won't starve to death."
They basically couldn't see the general himself while staying in the kitchen, and it was good enough if they could see a deputy general like Lao Lu.
After staying for a while, they have gradually integrated into the rhythm here.
That day, she and Xiao Wang pushed a wheelbarrow to move firewood. On the way back, they passed by the gate of the military camp and were concentrating on pushing the cart.
Suddenly, bursts of cheers were heard.
"Welcome back, General."
As the gate of the military camp opened, a man in armor, holding a long tasseled spear in one hand, with a murderous aura and a sullen face, rode a black horse and rushed in.
The setting sun shone obliquely on the earth, and his armor was stained with crimson blood, against the cold light and following the howling wind.
Like a black panther, so noble.
And so daunting.
For the first time, Li Xiaoyu felt intimidated by Gu Fei.
Upon hearing that the general had returned victoriously, many soldiers who had not participated in the battle came out to cheer.
"Wow, welcome back General."
They pushed Li Xiaoyu and Xiao Wang to the back.
Listening to the cheers, looking at the victorious team led by the man, running rapidly towards another camp.
The wind and sand splashed by the horse's hooves made a mess, temporarily blurring Li Xiaoyu's vision.
She lowered her eyes and pulled the corners of her mouth into a silent smile.
Men who are engaged in business are handsome.
Xiao Wang saw his friends who were also secret guards in the returning team. He sighed in his heart, hoping that they and the general would be safe.
Old Yao didn't see them return for a long time and was worried that the two newcomers had gone to the wrong place.
He was worried about his fellow villagers, so he came out to look for them.
As soon as he arrived here, he saw the army coming back. He looked up and saw the two people he was looking for standing in front of the wheelbarrow, craning their necks to watch the fun.
He shouted at the top of his voice, "Xiao Wang, Xiao Chang, come back and cook."
Gu Fei was riding his horse to the main camp. With his keen senses, he heard two names among the bustling crowd.
For some reason, his heart suddenly shook.
"Xu."
He pulled the reins, the horse stopped, and looking sideways, the pair of deep willow-leaf eyes were as dark as the abyss.
There was nothing over there except the loudly cheering crowd.
He retracted his gaze, narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised his thin lips in a self-deprecating smile.
How could she be here...
