Dominate the ancient academy

Studying in the morning was fine, but what made Shu Xiaoxiao feel sad was what to do for lunch. She really couldn't stand the two-meal system.

Shu Xiaoxiao lay on the table in the dormitory, looking at the plates of snacks and shouting, "I'm so hungry, I want to eat meat!"

Su Shiche: "I'm hungry too, but we're much better off than those people in the lower dormitory. At least we have snacks. The lower dormitory doesn't even have snacks. Let's just make do with what we have."

Su Shiche was eating a piece of snack, but he didn't complain. They were used to having two meals a day, and they usually had snacks at noon. The only bad thing was that the food here was not as good as at home, and he got hungry quickly after studying for a long time.

Shu Xiaoxiao: "Do you know where I can eat? Or where I can buy ingredients?"

From now on, she can take the ingredients to Huo Feng's place for a free meal.

She didn't want to treat herself badly when she had the money. Didn't she say in a skit before, what is the most painful thing in the world? It is that the person is gone but the money is still there. In her previous life, she liked to save money and felt safe. In this life, she wants to enjoy life in time and not let herself be wronged!

People, you should enjoy yourself while you can, or else you will suffer just for living in this world.

Qian Jinbao quickly raised his hand: "I know, our academy has chickens, right over by the canteen, but I don't know if they're willing to sell them."

He also likes to eat, so he knows exactly where to eat in the academy.

Shu Xiaoxiao: "Why don't we go and ask if they are willing to sell it? If they are willing to sell it, we can eat roasted chicken. Do you want to go?"

Shu Tingfei: "Go."

Qian Jinbao: "Go."

Su Shiche: "Go."

Why not eat if there is delicious food? They want to eat real meat, and the few pieces of meat in the cafeteria can't even satisfy their cravings.

The four of them went straight to the cafeteria. Since it was not meal time and there were not many people around, Qian Jinbao led the three of them directly to the back of the cafeteria.

Today's academies are different from those in modern times. The academy will allocate courtyards to teachers who come here to teach. They can bring their wives and children. As long as they are not from a large family, several generations can live here.

Not only the teachers, but also those who work here are provided with accommodation, and it's free. This is much better than the modern times. Nowadays, except for those who work in the factory, few people provide accommodation, and the cost of accommodation is the bulk of consumption. In the past, I really had a headache just thinking about renting a house.

There is also a small row of courtyards behind the canteen, but the courtyards here are much simpler and look very ordinary, but they are much better than the village at the foot of the mountain.

Qian Jinbao pointed to one of the courtyards and said, "That's where Aunt Kong from the kitchen lives. She lives with her daughter, and it's her daughter who raises chickens."

Shu Xiaoxiao: "Let's go ask."

Aunt Kong is a widow. Her husband has five brothers, and he is the third one. As the saying goes: the eldest is the treasure, the youngest is the pampered, and the middle one is the bullied one. Her husband is really the middle one among the middle ones. He has never been favored since he was a child.

Later, for the sake of a tiger skin, she was directly adopted by an old hunter in the village. Only then did her husband live a good life. After they got married, the man learned hunting and she had good skills and cooked for the village. Their life was prosperous.

The man's parents had many children and their lives were not as well off as his. When the old hunter got old, he suggested that his husband return home. The man knew that his parents were partial to him and refused directly. They just gave him some filial piety every year, and no one in the village said anything.

As a result, the man encountered a big tiger in the mountains again. When he found them, no one was alive. Before she had time to feel sad, the whole family wanted to eat her up.

It was also her fault that she could only give birth to two daughters and no son. Without a man, she would be bullied by others. Because there was no son, no one in the village came forward to uphold justice.

That family even wanted to sell her two daughters because their grandson was about to get married, and she almost had a fight with them.

Fortunately, they met the principal of the academy, who brought them to the academy. Aunt Kong worked in the kitchen because of her cooking skills, and her two daughters were also hardworking, so they raised some chickens at home. The eggs and chickens could be sold to the canteen of the academy, which was also a source of income.

Aunt Kong is very satisfied with her current life. She has food and shelter, and no one dares to come to the academy to eat her out. Her two daughters are also safe. She is saving some money now, and in a few years, she will find good families for her two daughters to marry into. Then she can rest assured.

When Shu Xiaoxiao and the others came over, Aunt Kong happened to be at home. She was usually busier in the morning and evening, and usually had some time to rest at noon.

She was a little surprised when she heard the knock on the door. Although there were only women in this row, there were still few people visiting at this time. The doorkeeper was even more puzzled when he saw the young master in student uniform in front of him.

Aunt Kong was a little nervous: "Young Master, why are you here? What's the matter?"

All the people in this academy are Wenquxing, why is Wuquxing here?

Seeing Aunt Kong's puzzled look, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly explained: "Auntie, we are students of this academy. I heard that you have chickens here. I wonder if we can buy two chickens."

Aunt Kong: "Hey, young masters, if you want chickens, I have some. I'll catch them for you right away." Then she went to the chicken coop.

The four of them followed him in and saw a large three-layer bamboo chicken coop standing in the corner. There were more than ten chickens in it. All of them were energetic and fat and strong, making the four of them drool.

Normally chickens are raised in the village, but Aunt Kong thought that since this was a college anyway, if the chickens accidentally ran out and made the teachers angry, she just asked someone to make a big cage for them. The chickens here have been fine in the cages all the time, and her two daughters clean the yard regularly, so there is no peculiar smell in the yard.

Xiao Tao and Xiao Xing were originally in the house. When they heard the rooster crowing, they hurried out. The chicken was an important property, and they hoped that someone would not steal it.

When she came out, she saw her mother holding a chicken in each hand. Xiao Tao hurriedly asked, "Mom, why are you catching chickens?" She didn't even notice the four people standing at the door.

Aunt Kong: "It's okay. Since you are out, just catch two chickens and give them to the four young masters."

Shu Xiaoxiao next to her said quickly: "Auntie, two chickens are enough for us." Then she hurried over to take the chicken and handed it to Shu Tingfei behind her.

She took out the money she had prepared. Nowadays, chickens are generally fifty coins each, regardless of weight. Shu Xiaoxiao gave you one hundred and twenty coins for two chickens. "Auntie, we want to buy some salt and seasoning after we get the chickens. Can you give us some?"

Aunt Kong had never sold chickens to these students before, so she quickly declined, "It's free, just two chickens, you can eat them." As she said this, she was about to push the chickens back.

Shu Xiaoxiao said quickly: "Auntie, if you don't want this money, we dare not accept your chicken, please take it."

When Aunt Kong heard this, she didn't push it back, but she looked at the money in her hand and said anxiously: "Master, you gave too much."

"We didn't give you much. We wanted some more seasoning. Also, no one asked about us coming here to buy chickens, so don't mention it. Otherwise, I'm worried that you won't have enough chickens to sell."

"Master, rest assured, we will definitely not bring it up."

"Okay, then we'll leave first. Thank you, Sister Xiaotao." Shu Xiaoxiao took the seasoning that Xiaotao brought and left quickly. She had to quickly roast the chicken, otherwise there would not be enough time.
