On the carriage.

The Bai family's father and son had gloomy expressions.

Bai Lingxing's voice trembled: "Dad, are we just going to let this go? What about my college entrance exam?"

"what to do?!"

Mr. Bai was furious: "What the hell is this exam?"

Bai Lingxing was about to cry.

Mr. Bai became even more annoyed. "Stupid thing! You still have the nerve to cry? If you hadn't spread the word yourself, you wouldn't have been unable to take the exam."

Hear the words.

Bai Lingxing cried out in injustice, "Dad, I didn't spread this. I didn't spread it everywhere. Xie Boyuan has always been playing the pig to eat the tiger. I don't think I have anything to be proud of for defeating him, so why would I spread it?"

"I still feel ashamed!"

Hearing this, Master Bai frowned fiercely: "Not you?"

He was not a fool like Bai Lingxing. Having been in business for most of his life, he immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"If someone hadn't deliberately spread the word, it would have been nothing more than a bet, and it wouldn't have spread so far."

"Someone deliberately framed you!"

Bai Lingxing's eyes widened: "What?!"

next moment.

His face was ferocious and furious: "Who?! Who is behind this? I'm going to kill him!"

Mr. Bai was also extremely angry.

But when his anger reached its peak, he calmed down instead: "There is no wall that is impenetrable. I will send people to investigate when I get home. I must find the thief."

Bai Lingxing gnashed his teeth and said, "Dad, you must find that person!"

"I am in this state now, it's all because of him..."

now.

Bai Lingxing's hatred for the person who spread the bet far exceeded Xie Boyuan's.

because.

Only in this way could he convince himself that the current situation was caused by others and had nothing to do with him.

Mr. Bai nodded heavily.

Neither the father nor the son considered the possibility that the man was targeting Xie Boyuan.

……

Xinghua Village.

Behind a hidden woods.

Xie Lingdi looked at Sui Chunsheng angrily. "What's wrong with you? Xie Boyuan is so knowledgeable, and you don't even know about this? We helped him spread the bet, but we ended up helping him. Everyone in town is praising him as a genius!"

Hear the words.

Sui Chunsheng's face darkened as well. "Is this my fault? Xie Boyuan is such a sinister villain. How could I have known he was hiding so deeply?"

"Now, Bai Lingxing has lost. If they find me, I'm done!"

Xie Lingdi said indifferently, "What does this have to do with me?"

Sui Chunsheng's face immediately turned cold: "If you stand by and watch, don't blame me for telling Xie Boyuan what you did."

"Who would believe it?"

Xie Lingdi sneered: "Besides, our family has already torn relations with Xie Boyuan's family, so adding another grudge is nothing."

Sui Chunsheng was speechless: "You are so cruel!"

Xie Lingdi: "No thanks."

Suichun left angrily.

As soon as he left, Xie Lingdi pounded the tree trunk hard, gritting her teeth and saying, "Damn it!!!"

……

After the Bai family father and son left, the villagers discussed the matter for a few days and then forgot about it.

tomorrow.

That was the day Xie Boyuan set out for the provincial capital.

That night.

After dinner, while washing the dishes, Xie Lingfen looked at Xie Linghe and said, "Sister, Boyuan is leaving tomorrow. We need to make some dry food for him tonight. What do you think we should make?"

Dry food?!

She hadn't even thought about that.

but.

After hearing what Xie Lingfen said, I felt it made sense. In ancient times, travel was slow and there was no takeout, so people had to bring their own dry food for long journeys.

what to do?

Got it!

Soon, Xie Linghe had an idea: "Second sister, take out the dried bamboo shoots and bracken I dried and soak them."

Xie Lingfen nodded: "Okay."

Xie Linghe added, "I'll go dig up some wild onions."

soon.

She comes back.

Xie Lingfen had already soaked the vegetables. Seeing the wild onions in her hand, she reached out and took them: "Sister, let me clean the wild onions."

"Row."

Xie Linghe handed it to her, took out the flour and started kneading the dough.

"Sister, what are you going to do?"

"Pancakes."

Xie Lingfen nodded, then asked worriedly, "The weather is getting hot. Can this cake be kept for a long time?"

"That's fine." Xie Linghe waved his hand. "Just make some more plain bread."

Xie Linghe prepared two fillings: diced pork with bamboo shoots and pork with fern.

The pancake method.

She planned to make it like pickled mustard greens pancakes, bake them dry so they could be preserved for a longer time.

after all.

June in ancient times was just like April and May in modern times, and was not extremely hot.

Once you start doing it, you forget about time.

Xie Zhongji came over and said, "Sister, Dashan and the others are here, why don't you come to class?"

Hear the words.

Xie Linghe reacted and felt a little regretful: "How could I forget this?"

"Second brother, I have to make dry food for your eldest brother today. I don't have time for class. Please let Dashan and the others go back first."

"Oh."

Xie Zhongji nodded, walked closer to look at the stuffing, and swallowed his saliva: "Sister, there is so much meat?"

"Are all these made for Big Brother?"

Xie Linghe glanced at him amusedly and said, "Don't worry, I've got you covered."

Xie Zhongji cheered up: "Okay, I'll go back now."

See this.

Xie Linghe suddenly had an idea and called out to him, "Wait a minute, don't let Dashan and the others go back yet. I'll make some pancakes for them to take back to their uncle and aunt to try."

Xie Zhongji immediately agreed: "Okay, big sister."

soon.

Xie Zhongji led a group of people over, and the whole kitchen became crowded.

Xie Linghe wanted to make pancakes, so he didn't bother to greet them and put down a pancake with quick hands and feet.

Suddenly.

A domineering fragrance emanated.

"Hi~"

“It smells so good~”

"I just ate and I'm feeling hungry again!"

“This looks delicious.”

Xie Linghe fried one. It wasn't particularly dry, as it still needed to be roasted on the stove. But seeing their eager eyes, he said, "Take it and try it."

As soon as these words came out.

Xie Shuze picked it up immediately, grimacing in pain: "It's so hot, so hot..."

But I will never let go.

Xie Shuji and his companions were angry.

“No eating alone.”

"hateful!"

"..."

Xie Shuze didn't dare to offend the crowd, so he said, "I'll divide it up. Everyone gets something, everyone..."

"That's pretty much it."

Xie Linghe ignored them and continued to make the second one, which still tasted like pork, dried bamboo shoots and wild onions.

"Wow!"

“It’s so fragrant and crispy, it’s amazing.”

"Dried bamboo shoots are delicious, even better than meat!"

"Meat, dried bamboo shoots, and wild onions, put together and they taste so good. How did you come up with that, cousin?"

"I want my mother to do it for me too."

"..."

finished eating.

Xie Shuze went to call Xie Boyuan over.

As soon as Xie Lingfen saw him, she immediately said, "Brother, you're here. I'm making some dry food for you for tomorrow's departure. Do you want to try some?"

Xie Boyuan's Adam's apple moved.

"Give."

He took it, took a bite, and his eyes lit up.

one night.

Everyone was talking and laughing in the kitchen.

……

The next day.

Xie Boyuan said goodbye to his family: "Eldest sister, second sister, I'm leaving."

Xie Linghe yawned and waved his hand: "Go ahead."

Xie Lingfen earnestly advised: "Take the exam seriously and don't be nervous. No matter how you do, we won't blame you."

Xie Boyuan nodded.

Then he looked at his three younger brothers and said, "When I'm not at home, you are the men of the family. Take good care of your elder sister and the others."

Xie Zhongji nodded seriously: "I understand."

Xie Shuze patted his chest and assured: "Leave it to me."

Xie Jijun nodded.

As Xie Boyuan was about to leave, Xie Lingai shouted in a loud voice, "Brother, I will miss you."

Xie Boyuan was stunned and ignored her out of habit.

He looked a little uncomfortable and touched her head: "Wait for my brother to come back and bring you a gift."

Xie Zhongji and the other two said in unison: "Gift!"

"Brother, brother!"

"Don't forget ours."

Xie Boyuan: "..."

Is it too late to regret now?

That's it!

He nodded expressionlessly, turned around and strode away, looking somewhat embarrassed for some reason.
