After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy
Chapter 12: Thicker Skin Than Shield
Ye Xunqing only brought a small bowl of mushroom and meat sauce because he wanted to sell the rest. There was also a bowl of chopped offal, the meat soaked in the broth, which looked delicious.
"What is this?" Feng Jinghua smelled the fragrance, "It smells so good!"
Ye Xunqing gave both bowls to Feng Jingheng, "Thank you for picking mushrooms, second brother. I will definitely give you a share of the money I make from selling them tomorrow. My uncle's family slaughtered a pig today, and I went to get some offal. If you don't mind, you can try it."
When they heard it was pig offal, the others were not so enthusiastic, but Feng Jingheng took a piece to taste it without changing his expression. After tasting it, his eyes lit up.
"How did you make it? It doesn't have any fishy smell at all, and it's very soft and rotten." Feng Jingheng savored it, "It even has a hint of sweet and spicy flavor..."
Ye Xunqing smiled and said, "It tastes sweet and spicy. Do you think it tastes good?"
"It's delicious." Feng Jingheng couldn't help but picked up two more pieces with chopsticks and put them in his bowl.
Ye Xunqing gave him the mushroom and meat sauce again, "This is delicious with steamed buns, or noodles, it's also delicious, try it."
Feng Jingheng tasted them all and had to say that Ye Xunqing's cooking skills were amazing. It was completely different from before. In the past, it was a question whether the food he made was edible, but now the food he made was like delicious delicacies from heaven.
"Great!" Feng Jingheng gave the highest praise.
The other people in the Feng family also smelled the fragrance and picked up some with their chopsticks.
After tasting it, Feng Jinghua said, "I was wrong. I might have misunderstood offal. It's obviously delicious."
Ye Xunqing was very satisfied with the result. He said, "As long as you like it, Xiaobai and I will leave first."
Ye Hongxia brought two steamed buns and placed them in their hands. "Your father has sold almost all of the wheat, and I guess you two don't have many steamed buns to eat. Take two and go back and dip them in this sauce."
"Thank you, auntie." Ye Xunqing accepted it and planned to save the two steamed buns for breakfast tomorrow morning, hoping that they would not go bad.
After the two brothers left, the Feng family began to talk about them.
"How come Qing'er has become different after jumping into the river?" Feng Jinghua wondered, "Oh, this thing is delicious. If he married into our family, wouldn't we be able to eat it every day?"
Ye Hongxia glanced at Feng Jingheng, then began to scold her eldest son, "Why are you bringing up such a topic? Go eat your steamed buns."
Feng Jingheng lowered his head and ate the steamed bun without saying a word.
Feng Datong got a pot of rice wine and drank it, and the more he ate, the more he enjoyed it.
Liu Xiaojing was glaring at Feng Jing'an, trying to get him to say something. Feng Jing'an was holding his son, not knowing what to say.
Ultimately, it was his fault that the family had no money. If he hadn't gotten Liu Xiaojing pregnant, the Liu family wouldn't have asked him for so much money. They wanted twelve taels of silver for the bride price alone. If he didn't give it, Liu Xiaojing would have been thrown into a pig cage.
Feng Jing'an loved Liu Xiaojing. He knelt in the yard for two days before his old father agreed to let Liu Xiaojing in.
But this made his two brothers feel wronged. Especially the second brother, because everyone in the family knew that the second brother was interested in Ye Xunqing, but the betrothal gift that Ye Lao Si wanted was too high, and he also wanted a grand ceremony, which Feng Jingheng could not afford.
On the other side, Ye Xunqing had already returned home. Before going home, he and Xiaobai deliberately walked around outside for a long time and waited until the smell on their bodies dissipated before going home.
With yesterday's experience, he asked Wang Qiumei to close the door today. No matter who knocked, she would not open it, so that no one would know that he was preparing delicious food inside.
Ye Laosi was very dissatisfied with his behavior of leaving home early and returning late, "You are not at home every day, where have you been?"
Ye Xunqing made an excuse and said, "My uncle was slaughtering a pig at home today, and Xiaobai and I went to help. My uncle invited us to dinner."
Ye Lao Si was very unhappy, "Didn't you think of bringing something back to honor your father?"
Chen Jinhua was also listening.
"Father, are you kidding me? Does my uncle like us brothers? I don't know how we managed to get this meal." Ye Xunqing said bluntly, "My brother and I spent half a day cleaning the yard, and my uncle only rewarded us with a meal. How could he let us take anything back?"
Chen Jinhua said, "Next time something good like this happens, remember to bring your two younger brothers along. If nothing else, they'll just have a free meal of meat."
Ye Xunqing didn't disagree with them at all. "Okay, okay. I'll definitely tell my uncle next time."
They went back to take a shower and sleep.
Chen Jinhua said to Ye Laosi, "Qing'er seems to have grown up. After jumping into the river and waking up, he no longer has a bad temper. Now he can make money."
Ye Laosi was a little unhappy, "But he gave all the money to his husband and didn't take a single cent home."
Chen Jinhua felt that Ye Laosi's vision was a bit short-sighted. "Why do you say that? Baldy Wang San is so rich, how could he ask for such a small amount of money from you? Didn't you prepare a dowry for your brother? Just use his own money as a dowry. Maybe Baldy Wang San will be so happy that he will give us an additional gift."
Ye Laosi thought what she said made sense. "That's right, as long as Qing'er marries Wang Santu, will our family still have to worry about having no money to spend in the future?"
They were talking loudly, so Ye Xunqing heard everything. What could he say? He could only say that these two people were so shameless that they could even use the shield to study it.
Never mind them, he and Xiaobai still have to go to the market tomorrow morning, hoping to sell the things at a good price so that he can buy Xiaobai two nice clothes.
When the rooster crowed, Ye Xunqing got up, changed into the only clothes he had that were not too torn, and then changed Xiaobai into better clothes.
"Brother, are we going to the market?" Ye Xunbai was extremely excited and not sleepy at all.
"Yes." Ye Xunqing said, "We're going to the village chief's house and riding in an oxcart. I've also made an agreement with my second brother to bring some money so we can go to town and buy some clothes."
"Yeah." Ye Xunbai likes to buy new clothes. For so many years, he has been wearing his brother's old clothes, and his brother's clothes are also patched up. Even during the Chinese New Year, they don't have new clothes to wear.
They quietly left for the village chief's house before daybreak. Ye Hongsheng had also harnessed his ox cart, but he wasn't going today. His eldest son, Ye Xijiang, was driving.
Because they had a lot of stuff to transport today, they used an ox cart. If the stuff was smaller, they could use a donkey cart. The ox cart moved slowly, so they had to leave early, otherwise they wouldn't get a good price for the stuff.
When I left the village, many families had already left. Those who were better off drove their carts, while those who were not so well off carried their belongings on their backs.
"Second Brother Heng!" Ye Xunbai called Feng Jingheng while sitting on the ox cart.
Feng Jingheng turned around to look at them and nodded to them.
