At the beginning, I saved a little mute

Jiang Zao took the map and observed it carefully.

The shortest route doesn’t pass through the capital.

She planned to take the shortest route.

Today is the third day since they changed their goal.

Jiang had received the letter from the third prince a long time ago.

The letter said that if there were any extra "golden elixirs", Jiang should give them to him early.

In the box in front of Jiang Zao, there were three smaller "golden pills", which were the result of Minister Zhong's hard research.

She closed the lid and calculated the time it would take to reach the Southland.

The third prince is building a dam in Qingshui Town in the southern border, and Que Yunsheng is going to Nanyan County in the southern border to serve as the captain.

Although they are both in the southern border, the places are still far apart.

Jiang had calculated the time early and sent a man on horseback, lightly equipped, to deliver the three "golden pills" to Qingshui Town.

He also carried with him a letter whose purpose was unclear, but it was only for contact and to make it easier for the Third Prince to recognize the letter.

He also wrote a small note to explain the future division of the profits from the assets left in Fufeng County.

Wait until she releases the pigeon.

The group arrived in Qiongzhou, which was very close to the capital. They had a lot of carriages and supplies.

Very eye-catching.

Therefore, Jiang Zao and his companions did not enter the city, but stopped three miles outside the city.

Jiang Zao and Dong Xue took Mo Shan and prepared to go into the city for a stroll.

By the way, learn about the prices and specialties here.

The three of them were dressed simply.

As soon as he entered the city, Jiang discovered that this place was completely different from Dingzhou.

Dingzhou is a small city in the northern border. Although it is a provincial capital, it is far inferior to Qiongzhou, which is so close to the capital.

The streets are lined with buildings and the sounds of hawking and shouting are endless.

The streets are clean and tidy, and the bluestone pavement is very smooth to walk on.

It was noon, a good time to eat.

Jiang Zao casually walked into a restaurant that looked crowded.

The waiter came over immediately, led them to their seats, and announced the names of the dishes.

Jiang Zao frowned slightly. These dishes were not much different from those she had heard of in Dingzhou.

I guess the taste is similar.

She ordered two at random.

When the dishes came, they were almost the same.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

As expected, cooking techniques during this era were relatively simple.

Most of the dishes are steamed or boiled, there are very few stir-fried dishes and more stews.

It doesn't look that appetizing.

She ate two or three bites and then put it down.

Dongxue said worriedly, "Miss, you are not feeling well. You have eaten too little."

"No." Jiang Zao shook his head, "You guys eat."

Dong Xue then sat down with Mo Bai, tasted the food with two chopsticks, and couldn't help but sigh, "These dishes really have no taste, they are just salty, it's better to cook them yourself."

They were all used to eating the Jiang family's food, and suddenly when they ate outside, they found that it was not as good as the spicy hot pot at Yunsheng Restaurant, which whetted their appetite.

All three of them only ate a few bites.

Looking at the remaining dishes in front of him, Jiang Zao was about to ask Dong Xue to pay when he heard Mo Bai hesitantly say, "Miss, it would be a pity not to finish the food. Can you take it away?"

Jiang Zao didn't ask why, and said without hesitation, "Of course."

Then he asked the waiter to pack up.

The waiter took a food box and filled it for them.

"Miss, it's better not to pack it."

Dongxue handed the lunch box to Mo Bai, "You have to pay for the lunch box."

"Just bring him the lunch box later."

Jiang Zao said.

"Why did you pack it? It doesn't taste good at all."

Dongxue really couldn’t understand why the lunch box was packed when it was so heavy and big?

"I want to send it to the west of the city."

Mo Bai explained honestly, "Miss, when I entered the house, I saw several children outside a dilapidated courtyard in the west of the city. They were pale and skinny. If we can give them all the leftover food, they will definitely be very happy."

"Why do you think so?" Dongxue widened her eyes and said in surprise, "I didn't even pay attention to those children in the west of the city."

Mo Bai clenched his fingers, "Maybe it's because my younger brother and I were like this when we were little. We just wanted to have enough food every day."

Mo Bai's eyes were filled with memories.

Jiang Zao sighed slightly. At that time, the Mo and Bai brothers were even more miserable.

"How can this be enough?"
