Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 96

The words in Jiang Zhiyue's mouth stopped abruptly, she looked forward and saw her mother walking out.

The people in the house saw that Jiang Zhiyue went out to open the door and never came back, so Mrs. Zhang came out to have a look.

Who knew that as soon as he walked out of the kitchen, he saw Jiang Zhiyue leading three people over.

And the one walking with her daughter is not Ou Yangming or someone else!
Since Ouyang Ming said goodbye to them on the way to Longxian Village, he never appeared again.

They knew that Ouyang Ming's identity was unusual, so they didn't ask more questions, and they didn't mention him to others.

He came back today.

Mrs. Zhang asked in surprise, "Xiao Ming?!!!"

Zhang's surprised voice was really too loud, Jiang Zhiyue was startled by the sudden appearance of the voice.

And Mrs. Zhang obviously frightened her unknowingly, now she is pulling Ouyang Ming's sleeve into the room after being surprised.

The two followers behind Jiang Zhiyue and Ouyang Ming were stunned.

Everything is like magic after arriving in this yard.

Ever since they met Shi Zi, they had never seen Shi Zi smile like this.

Every time the prince smiles, someone will suffer.

And the current unfavorable situation for the son made him more cold and severe, as if there was nothing he cared about.

So, is this gentle man in front of him really their heir?
And that woman dared to pull Shizi's clothes with her hands, did she think her life was too long?
But the imagined scene did not appear.

Ouyang Ming followed Zhang's strength and took two steps forward, and said, "Auntie, don't worry, Zhiyue is still behind."

Mrs. Zhang let go of her hand and saw Jiang Zhiyue's resentful eyes.

Mrs. Zhang laughed awkwardly, and said, "I haven't seen Xiao Ming for a long time, I'm a little too excited."

"These two are from Xiao Ming's family, right? We're just getting ready to eat, come in quickly, come in quickly, just in time."

Mrs. Zhang's exclamation just now has attracted everyone in the room.

After they walked out of the house, they saw the scene outside.

Ouyang Ming greeted them one by one before they spoke.

The two attendants who followed him had adjusted their emotions very quickly, and on the surface they seemed quite calm.

It's just that I couldn't help but exclaim in my heart, but no one noticed.

San Lang and the boys excitedly ran to Ouyang Ming and surrounded him tightly.

"Brother Ming!"

Everyone exchanged pleasantries in the windy courtyard.

Mrs. Jiang walked out the door and saw Ouyang Ming's clothes blown up by the wind, so she greeted, "Come inside quickly, it's warm with charcoal fire."

The crowd walked into the room with a roar.

When Ouyang Ming's two attendants followed into the room at the end, they still couldn't help being surprised when they saw the meals on the two big round tables inside.

The ordinary village household that Shi Zi mentioned... doesn't seem to be very ordinary.

The table is full of meals.

Although it is not as exquisitely arranged as a big family's house, the weight is really quite a lot.

There are eight kinds of meat and vegetables, and there are two soups, one meat and one vegetarian.

After the two entered the room, they stood aside, listening carefully to the movement in the room.

Seeing the two of them, Jiang Yuchao stood up and said, "You two, put down your things and rest for a while."

The two were about to evade, but the next moment they felt a very threatening gaze looking at them.

The two of them searched their eyes and saw the not-so-kind eyes of their master.

Ouyang Ming looked at them, then at the direction Jiang Yuchao was leading them: two stools.

The words of refusal turned in a circle in his mouth, and it became: "Thank you, sir."

The two carefully sat on the bench, and sure enough, that line of sight disappeared.

Looking over to Ouyang Ming, he was being surrounded by people who were talking about him.

Everyone didn't ask anything, they just cared about the situation during the days when he left.

Ouyang Ming kept replying, as if enjoying the atmosphere.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, everyone took their seats.

Food cools quickly in winter, and we will have cold food after a while.

Everyone sat in their original positions, Ouyang Ming took a look, and sat directly next to Jiang Zhiyue.

That position was originally Zhang Xiaoyan's position, she just glanced at it, and met Ouyang Ming's eyes.

Zhang Xiaoyan shuddered inexplicably, feeling that the temperature in the room was a little colder than usual.

She resolutely walked over to Mrs. Zhang and sat down.

Zhang Xiaoyan let out a long breath of relief.

Huh~ It's warmer with the charcoal fire on my aunt's side.

Ou Yangming sniffed the scent of wine mixed with the smell of rice wafting in the air, and couldn't help asking, "Is this... the monkey wine from the forest?"

"It's the two jars of monkey wine brought back by the girl Zhiyue in the forest. Come and taste it."

Mr. Jiang poured a glass of wine for Ouyang Ming, then looked at the two people at the other table next to him and said, "You guys have a taste too."

The two people who followed Ouyang Ming were fat and thin, the tall, thin and shrewd one was called Li Da, and the fatter and kinder one was called Li Wen.

Hearing Mr. Jiang's "gracious invitation", Li Wen couldn't sit still immediately.

As soon as the wine jar was taken out just now, the smell wafted to his nose, and all the gluttonous wine worms came out.

He half stood up from the bench with a smile, and said, "Master, you don't have to work hard, I will do it myself."

As soon as he stood up, Li Da kicked him from under the table.

"Hiss! Li Da, you are killing me, why are you kicking me?"

Li Da glanced at him like a fool, then looked away.

Li Wen walked over with a smile and took the wine jar from Mr. Jiang's hand.

Mr. Jiang's eyelids twitched, and he saw Li Wen holding the wine jar and pouring a full bowl of wine into the half-mouthed bowl in front of him.

The crystal clear wine swirled twice at the mouth of the bowl without spilling a single drop.

Anyone who sees it will say it's great.

Li Wen wanted to pour another glass for Li Daye, wanting his good brother to taste the good wine.

Li Da stretched out two fingers to block Li Wen's movements, and said sternly, "I don't drink."

Li Wen clicked his tongue and muttered, "Then you won't be so lucky to taste good wine."

He smiled and returned the wine jar to Mr. Jiang.

Mr. Jiang took the wine jar into his hand. He used to pour the wine himself, but Li Wen suddenly poured a big bowl, and felt that more than half of it was missing.

I was silently sad in my heart, and I couldn't say anything about this silly-looking young man.

Mr. Jiang sealed the wine jar and put it away again, and hurriedly greeted everyone for dinner.

Everyone happily picked up their chopsticks and started to move their hands.

After some delay, the food was already a little cold, but fortunately, the charcoal fire in the room was still warm, and there was still some residual heat.

During the meal, everyone was talking and laughing all the time, and the atmosphere was always very active.

Li Wen took a big sip of wine and said with emotion: "It's really good wine!"

Li Wen's temper was not as calm as Li Da's, and soon he became brothers with his tablemate Jiang Dalang and the others.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone's faces were flushed red from the warmth of the charcoal fire.

Ou Yangming said: "Everyone sent me all the way here, and I didn't have time to thank you. I found out that you are moving to a new house today, and you came to bother me without telling you in advance... I am really sorry."

Mr. Jiang said with a smile on his face: "What's the trouble, you haven't been here these days, Saburo and the others are thinking about you, and they want you to see if their martial arts have improved."

"Now that they see you back, they don't know how happy they are."

Mrs. Jiang also said: "The old man is right, if you want to come back in the future, you can come back, just like your own home."

Saburo took the opportunity to ask: "Brother Ming, are you going to leave this time?"

The others also looked at Ouyang Ming.

Ouyang Ming said: "Let's go, there are some things I'm not busy with yet."

He changed his voice and said again: "But you can stay for half a day and check your training situation tomorrow morning."

Saburo cheered excitedly: "That's great."

Ou Yangming said again: "I didn't bring any valuables when I came back, I only brought some things that you can use."

While Ouyang Ming was speaking, Li Da stood up and brought over the boxes placed by the wall, and pulled up Li Wen, who was getting carried away with drinking, by the way.

Ouyang Ming stood up and distributed the boxes to everyone.

Everyone present was there, even Bai Yifeng, who had always been at odds with him, didn't let go.

This time everyone knows why there are so many boxes. It turns out that everyone has them, and the things are not the same.

The ones for Mr. Wang Fugui and Mr. Jiang Kangde are all high-quality tea, and the ones for Mr. Jiang are good wine.

Mrs. Jiang's is a jade ruyi, Zhang's sisters-in-law and Huang Huaihua are all made of fabrics that match them, and it feels silky and has a good texture.

What Dalang Erlang and Wang Hao received were some books, and what Saburo received was a sharp dagger.

……

Everyone's things are different, and everyone is very happy to receive them.

Everyone said politely: "It will cost you money to come back."

After Ouyang Ming gave gifts to everyone and sat down, Li Da and Li Wencai sat down again in silence.

Listening to everyone's thanks, Li Wen thought to himself.

Isn't that right, Shizi is bullied by dogs now, and needs money to manage everything he does.

I was so busy every day that I even had to squeeze out the time to eat. After they built the house, they started preparing things many days in advance, and it took a lot of effort to get these things together.

Ouyang Ming smiled and said, "It's not too expensive, as long as everyone likes it."

He took out the last small box in his hand, which was for Jiang Zhiyue, and inside was a gold-rimmed bracelet.

This bracelet was remade by him himself, and it can hold hidden weapons inside.

He rubbed the box lightly, intending to pass it to Jiang Zhiyue.

As soon as Ouyang Ming looked at Jiang Zhiyue, he realized something was wrong.

Jiang Zhiyue sat upright, nothing seemed wrong.

But she stared straight at a spot on the table, she didn't move for a long time, and her eyes seemed a little dull.
