Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 95 Situation in Jiangbei
Mei Qian and Mrs. Mei are very embarrassed now.

They just came to care about Mrs. Yuan, so why did they hear these things that they shouldn't be able to hear, or shouldn't they hear these things in this way?

Mei Qian and Mrs. Mei were awkwardly stuck in Mrs. Yuan's bedroom. The sound of Mrs. Yuan's crying could still be heard in their ears. For a moment, they were embarrassed and didn't know how to react.

Whose old lady wakes up from a coma and is crying and talking at the same time! ?

Oh, it’s Mrs. Yuan.

Mei Qian never expected that the news about Jiangbei that she had longed for would be revealed by Mrs. Yuan, who had just woken up from a coma.

Although Jiangbei fell to the Xirong cavalry, some officials who did not follow the imperial court to cross south, or who did not receive the imperial court's southern crossing and were forced to delay a step and did not leave, actually formed a force in Jiangbei to resist Xirong?
This is the reason why there are still people who can cross south.

From the perspective of the common people - these people are good officials!

But in the eyes of the emperor and officials standing in the southern court - these are all fucking traitors!

The group of people in Jiangbei who were resisting desperately made the new emperor and officials who were anxiously crossing south look like clowns!
Especially when Mei Qian knew that the husband of the Yuan family's daughter was not an official from Nandu, she almost wanted to drag Cui'er and her daughter out of the capital.

Fortunately, Mei Qian didn't realize from Mrs. Yuan's cries that their son-in-law was an official in that powerful group.

He was just an ordinary county magistrate, a petty official who was ignored and forced to stay. When he met the Xirong soldiers, he had to desperately resist the Xirong army.

In the end, the Yuan family's son-in-law and the general who defended the city led the people to resist the Xirong soldiers for nearly two months. When the city was finally broken, he chose to commit suicide, and his wife also committed suicide.

As for the people in the city, the content of Mrs. Yuan's crying only revolved around her own relatives, and naturally she did not mention them.

And Mei Qian didn't dare to think about it, let alone ask.

Old Yuan sat on the edge of the bed with a cane and held his old wife's hand, letting her cry and howl. Cui'er saw that Old Mrs. Yuan was awake at this time and showed no signs of fainting again, so she also retreated behind Old Mrs. Mei.

As a result, the three of them were even more embarrassed at the moment.

Intellectually: I can’t listen to this thing!
Emotionally: I still want to listen to it again.

"This time I'm bothering the old lady. I just made some tea outside. I think you are all tired, so go and have a cup of tea."

At this moment, Feng, who was standing next to Wang before, stepped forward and spoke proactively.

Mei Qian and the others also followed Feng's invitation and followed them out.

Before leaving, Xiang Shi looked at Feng Shi from the side and followed.

Sitting in the hall drinking hot tea, Mrs. Mei wanted to speak. Since Mrs. Yuan woke up, it was time for them to leave. Mrs. Yuan's eldest daughter-in-law, Xiang Shi, also entered the hall and sat down. It seemed that she wanted to talk to her. They have a chat.

"My mother-in-law suddenly heard the sad news that my sister-in-law and uncle had passed away. She lost her temper a little. What she said was a little...confused. Please forgive me, madam."

"Children are all pieces of flesh that have fallen off from their parents. If something happens to a child, it is natural for the parents to be sad."

Mrs. Mei nodded and sighed, "I was like this when my elder brother passed away..."

"what……"

Xiang Shi chatted, but he didn't expect that he also mentioned other people's sad things.

"It's just that no one expected this natural and man-made disaster. I think your mother-in-law loves her daughter very much. After she has passed away from this sadness, we won't mention this matter in front of her.

Don't tell anyone outside, lest others spill the beans and expose your mother-in-law's sadness. "

One of Feng and Xiang were pouring tea and the other was talking to her. How could Mrs. Mei, who had lived for so many years, not know what these two wanted to say?
It's just to make up for what Mrs. Yuan said in excitement just now.

"Hey, that's the truth."

Xiangshi immediately understood the meaning of Mrs. Mei's words, and would have laughed outright had she not acted at the wrong time.

This old lady is really not to be underestimated.

At this time, the movement of Yuan Sanlang and Yuan Si, who called the doctor back from the town while running and panting, also came from the door.

"Doctor, doctor is here——!"

Seeing Yuan Si running out in a daze in late autumn, covered in sweat, and the doctor following him with a bad look on his face, Xiang also hurriedly went to work, and Mrs. Mei and the others took this opportunity to leave Yuan Si. Home. On the way back, Mrs. Mei's expression was as usual. Not everyone around her was curious about the Yuan family's movements this morning. Mrs. Mei also met someone on the way back. They just said that Mrs. Yuan had caught a cold, and she didn't say a word more. Talk outward.

After returning home, Mrs. Mei turned around and told Cui'er and Mei Qian not to talk about this matter today.

At this moment, Mrs. Han also came back from outside, and happened to hear the last words of Mrs. Mei.

"Mom, why don't you say anything? What happened?"

Her auntie acted as if she hadn't heard what she said, and she glared at her as soon as she asked.

"Where have you been so early in the morning?"

Mrs. Mei didn't answer. Instead, she glanced at the black and white plush in her arms and was stunned for a moment: "Where did the dog come from?"

"Huh? Oh, oh, oh, I caught it from the Tao family's girl. Her bitch has had a lot of puppies these days. I thought it would be good for our family to catch one to look after the yard."

Regarding the tiny little puppy that was moaning and groaning at the moment, Mrs. Mei couldn't help but stretched out her hand and took the puppy into her arms, touched it twice, and said: "Humph~ It's so small. I'll wait until it sees the yard." You have to eat a lot from me.”

Mrs. Mei said so, but she couldn't help but scratch the puppy's chin.

What a double standard~
"Auntie Tao, do you think Aunt Tao has a lot of puppies?"

Mei Qian remembered that she had just told the Lin family about raising a puppy in the morning.

"Well, she is worried about having to give away so many puppies."

As Han said this, he had an idea for the first time. He looked at Mei Qian and asked, "What, someone wants to raise a dog?"

"Well, that's the Lin family. They want to raise a dog for a nursing home."

"Hey, that's easy to say. I'll find a chance to tell the Lin family later."

Han took over the matter, but Mei Qian had nothing to say.

Counting the days, there are only a few days until the end of the month to go to Qian'an Temple for Buddha's birthday.

Some time ago, Mei Qian decided on two salty brine and three sweet brine after tasting it with her family.

In the next few days, she and her grandma will have to go to the town to buy some dry spices for making braised vegetables.

Regarding spices, Mei Qian asked Cui'er to buy some of the herbs added to Qiuli ointment before. This alone made the taste of salty braised pork made by Mei Qian completely different.

When Mei Qian made salty braised pork, he specially made a control group, salty braised pork with spices added, and one without any added spices.

Comparing these two, Mrs. Mei immediately agreed to Mei Qian's purchase of these spices.

It’s just that Mrs. Mei didn’t know how expensive these spices were at that time.

When it was Mrs. Mei's turn to pay for the spices, her heart was bleeding.

"God, why are these spices so expensive?"

The young lady who bought it, Mrs. Mei, didn't notice that it was too much. Mrs. Mei's eyes almost popped out.

After paying the money, Mrs. Mei walked out of the medical clinic, her feet were a little shaky, and she kept saying: "Just these few packets of spices can buy a big bag of millet..."

Seeing her distressed look, Mei Qian couldn't help but smile and comfort her: "Nai, think about it, we will rely on their fragrance to attract pilgrims, right? Our price will definitely be able to make up for it."

As soon as she heard that she could get her money back, the expression on Mrs. Mei's face naturally improved a lot.

Then, thinking of the alluring aroma of the minced meat sauce that Mei Qian had cooked with just a few spices at home, Mrs. Mei brought the spice bag in front of her and subconsciously wanted to take a deep breath——

"yue!"

Imagine the smell when you bury your head into a pile of octagonal heaps...

These spices in braised pork are really amazing. They are fragrant when stewed with the meat. Smell them individually and it’s exciting to compete with each other_(：3　∠)_
