Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 126 No wonder Brother Jian treats his sister-in-law like pearls and treasures
Over there, Gu Yan felt everyone's sincere thanks, and his fair face flushed red.

"Don't worry, everyone, although King Jing will return to the capital first, but I will always organize post-disaster reconstruction here.

I will definitely try my best to help everyone live a normal life. Come on, distribute food now, and the two of you are coming over to check the number of people. "

Gu Yan's words made Li Lizheng understand that he must please this lord.

The two men were checking with Gu Yan's subordinates, and Gu Yan strode up to Jian Shiming.

"King Jing will return to Beijing soon, you really don't want that reward?"

"Presumably King Jing has been very busy these days, so let's not bother him with trivial matters."

Jian Shiming was serious, and those who didn't know really thought he was thinking of King Jing.

Gu Yan liked this very much, and the two chatted casually, and soon he found that some of Jian Shiming's opinions were very close to him.

The two chatted more and more speculatively, so Mrs. Jane went crazy with jealousy watching this scene.

Such a good opportunity should belong to her fourth child.

It's a pity that the fourth child's life is not good, and I don't have this opportunity to meet important people, alas!
The number of people was registered quickly, and every household sent a head of household to line up to receive relief food.

Naturally, Tao Xi was in charge of their family, and Tao Xi lined up to receive the relief food, although there were only a few catties of coarse grains and some chestnuts in hand.

But it is also a hope for those who have been poor for so long.

Everyone was grateful to Dade and took the food back home, and Jian Shiming invited him casually.

"Master Gu, do you want to have lunch in the humble house?"

"Yes, but I bring my own food."

Gu Yan took out a bag of grain from the carriage, not much, and handed it to Tao Xi.

"Sister-in-law, you have worked hard."

Tao Xi: ...

She squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, "It's not hard work, it's easy.

It's just a rough meal, and I hope Mr. Gu will not dislike it. "

She originally wanted Gu Yan to retreat, but Gu Yan was more interested in the clinker.

"Only by experiencing the hardships of the people can you be a good official who cares for the people. Sister-in-law just cooks."

After he said that, Tao Xi naturally couldn't refuse any more, so he could only take Jian Erni to the kitchen.

Jian Erni was on fire in the kitchen, "Sister-in-law, what shall we eat?"

She knew that with outsiders around, the sister-in-law would not bring out delicious and novel things.

Tao Xi thought about it carefully, "Let's eat wild vegetable pancakes."

"It's... not good."

Jian Erni was very surprised, this is a high official, why don't you treat him well and eat wild vegetable pancakes?

"Then you grab a rabbit and come in."

Tao Xi opened his mouth without turning his head, and now it was replaced by Jian Erni in distress.

"The rabbit has to keep the baby rabbit."

"Okay, go catch a rabbit that isn't pregnant, and I'll go hunting in the mountains later."

After Tao Xi said so, Jian Erni had no choice but to obey. She would do what her sister-in-law said.

In the yard, Gu Yan and Jian Shiming were chatting, when suddenly Gu Yan sniffed.

"This...why do I smell meat?"

"Maybe it's my wife who made rabbit meat."

Jian Shiming knew Tao Xi very well, Gu Yan was very surprised when he said this.

"Can you hunt?"

"My wife knows some."

Jian Shiming was very proud when he talked about this, as if he was the one who could hunt rabbits.

Gu Yan couldn't help laughing, "It seems that brother Jian was not joking earlier, sister-in-law really wants to support the family."

"Yes."

Jian Shiming admitted frankly, "So naturally I can't let others bully my wife."

"Brother, it's time to eat."

Jian Erni came out of the kitchen. She set the dishes and brought out a bowl of wild vegetable pancakes.

The family sat down obediently, and finally Tao Xi brought a bowl of braised rabbit meat, "My lord, try the rabbit meat made by the women."

"This is not a simple meal, it is clearly delicacies from mountains and seas."

For Gu Yan, this is the best food, after all, meat is so important to farmers.

They are willing to entertain him, which shows that his status in their hearts is extremely important.

Tao Xi: ... (Not really.

"Lady's craftsmanship has always been very good, please try it, my lord."

Jian Shiming smiled lightly, the guests hadn't moved their chopsticks yet, and they didn't move.

It wasn't until Gu Yan took a bite of the rabbit meat that everyone began to eat it.

Gu Yan's eyes widened in surprise, "My God, this is too delicious!"

It is rare for him to show the appearance he should have at this age.

Tao Xi smiled modestly, "It's just a home-cooked dish in the countryside, as long as adults don't dislike it."

"Where is it? Although it is a bit spicy, this rabbit meat is very delicious."

Of course, she didn't know that there was a thing called seasoning, which was the braised sauce that Tao Xi specially bought from the space store.

Gu Yan ate several mouthfuls one after another, and suddenly realized that there was a shortage of food, so he slowed down the speed of his chopsticks.

"Just put some spices found in the mountains."

Tao Xi took some meat for Jian Shiming, and gently told him, "Master, eat more."

Well, in front of outsiders, Tao Xi has always been able to find fault.

Sure enough, seeing this scene, Gu Yan was very envious, "Sister-in-law is so gentle and considerate to Brother Jian, no wonder Brother Jian treats you like pearls and treasures."

"Let the adults laugh."

Jian Shiming's smile couldn't reach his eyes, it would be great if all this was true.

But he understood that this was just Tao Xi giving him face in front of outsiders.

"Ok?"

Gu Yan tasted wild vegetable pancakes and was very surprised, "This pancake tastes good too.

If my sister-in-law has this skill and opened a restaurant, the business must be very good. "

"Nowadays the world is difficult, and it's hard for everyone to have a full stomach. Who wants to go to a restaurant to eat."

Tao Xi sighed, she could only think of other ways to make money at the moment.

Hearing this, Gu Yan shook his head and said: "This statement is wrong, and now the counties are gradually returning to normal.

I think next year the county should be able to recover a little bit, and the masters of those rich and noble families will definitely want to change their tastes. "

"My lord is right."

Tao Xi just nodded, and didn't say whether he would do it or not. Gu Yan stopped talking and didn't mention it.

After they finished their meal in silence, Gu Yan looked at their yard and the rabbits raised in the yard.

"Brother Jian is so lucky, sister-in-law really knows how to live."

"The world is difficult, without a wife who is diligent and thrifty to manage the family, it will be even more difficult for us."

Tao Xi's good Jian Shiming has always been in his heart and has never been forgotten.

"Hey, what's that green thing in your backyard?"

Gu Yan has never planted land, so even though he has been to Taomu Village a few times, he did not realize that the villagers here have grown sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"That's a sweet potato vine."

Tao Xi didn't want to hide it from him either, since she had already found out, she naturally told the truth.

"Has your village grown food?"

Gu Yan expressed surprise that the people in Taomu Village were stronger and smarter than he thought.

"Yes, my lord."

Jian Shiming nodded honestly, Gu Yan frowned slightly, "You don't have to keep calling me Sir, just call me Brother Gu."
