Need for money

Because she was very careful, Lin Jingzhi was sweating profusely even if she just recognized the acupoints and got the needles. However, Aunt Yu, who came to visit every once in a while, shook her head repeatedly at the needle holes on the puppet. Although this scholar Xianggong has worked very hard, his talent in martial arts is really not good.

"Second Master, Aunt Yu, breakfast is ready." When the sun rose from the ground and was about a bamboo pole high, Zhu'er, a maid in Aunt Yu's yard, stepped forward and said with a blessing.

Because she hadn't had much contact with Lin Jingzhi before, Zhu'er seemed very reserved, with her head lowered, just staring at the ground, not daring to take a breath.

Pearl is only about 13 years old, wearing a long light yellow dress, with a little baby fat on her little face, she looks quite cute.

"Yeah." Soon it was time to distribute meals to the refugees, Lin Jingzhi responded, and walked back to the hut side by side with Aunt Yu.

Mrs. Lin Zhou took Lin Tian to say goodbye, and went back to her small courtyard for dinner. Now Mrs. Lin Zhou saw that her son only came here to practice martial arts in the morning, and in the afternoon, he only followed Aunt Yu's request to exercise more, without delaying his calligraphy and reading. She is even more grateful to Lin Jingzhi in her heart, and she doesn't know when it started, she is willing to stay with Lin Jingzhi, chat, have a conversation, or stand quietly beside this man, secretly Looking at his side face, this feeling is very warm and down-to-earth.

Walking into the hut and coming to the dining table, Lin Jingzhi sat down carelessly, and Aunt Yu was also polite, and then sat down.

The dishes on the table are simple and delicious. Because it is breakfast, it is not suitable to eat too greasy food, so there is only one meat dish, fried diced pork with bamboo shoots.

Because Lin Jingzhi just recovered from a serious illness, and he had a lot of exercise in the morning, he has a good appetite, and meat dishes are his favorite. However, he hadn't eaten a few bites when he saw Aunt Yu sticking out her bamboo chopsticks and scrambling for them frequently. , sneaked a glance at Aunt Yu who was on the opposite side, rolled his eyeballs, and coughed lightly: "Yu'er, you should eat less meat, or you will gain weight easily, and these bamboo shoots are not suitable for ladies to eat." , biting it up and creaking, um, it’s better to kill it for my husband.”

After all, while Aunt Yu was in a daze, Lin Jingzhi grandly brought the plate containing fried diced pork with bamboo shoots in front of him. in the bowl.

Aunt Yu has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she doesn't pay much attention to food, and she likes to eat big pieces of meat. As for the fact that she can't make a sound when eating, she has never thought about it. Just like that, how can I learn to eat slowly like a lady.

But now her status has changed, and she has become a concubine of a wealthy family. If it is still the same as before, it seems inappropriate, especially if she is seen by Mrs. Lin in the future, I am afraid that she will inevitably be reprimanded.

Raising her head, she glanced at Lin Jingzhi, who lowered her head and was frantically stuffing diced meat into her mouth. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Could it be that this man disliked him for not having the temperament and demeanor of a lady?

She never imagined that Lin Jingzhi, who had a halo of talent on his head, just made up a reason, wanting to eat all the meat dishes in his stomach.

For the first time, Aunt Yu, who looked down on a scholar who couldn't lift her shoulders or carried her back, felt a little inferior in front of this scholar.

Next, she didn't carelessly pick up her favorite vegetables, but just lowered her head and ate the two closest vegetarian dishes, without opening her mouth to smile, and eating silently.

Lin Jingzhi never believed that anyone could change Aunt Yu who was straightforward and independent, so he didn't notice any abnormalities in Aunt Yu afterwards, but just took bamboo chopsticks and quickly wiped out the food in front of him. There was not much left, and at the end he picked up the warm soup, gulped it down into his stomach, and burped comfortably.

It's really cool to grab other people's meat into your stomach!

Aunt Yu saw that he was full, so she also stopped eating, and then the two stood up, asked the maid to wash their hands, face and mouth, went into the inner room, turned their backs to each other, and changed their positions. Clean clothes.

Zhu'er was in charge of helping Lin Jingzhi tidy up the front skirts, her little face was blushing, and at the same time she admired secretly in her heart that the second master really urged them to fill up the rice and move faster when putting out the steamed buns.

After leaving it for a while, his speed was still too slow, so he simply asked a few servants to run back to the mansion quickly, and brought seven or eight large wooden basins, then filled them with gruel, took them to one side, and divided them into groups. put.

Although he was just directing his subordinates and did not do any physical work, after working for a while, he was still sweating profusely from exhaustion. Beads of sweat spread all over his face and neck, and the back of his clothes was also soaked in sweat. .

Aunt Yu stood aside to help direct, and felt a little distressed when she saw the situation, so she took out the brocade handkerchief in her bosom and handed it to him.

Lin Jingyi was stunned, then took it with a smile, and wiped his face. Of course, in the process, he didn't forget to sniff a few breaths of the woman's fragrance on the brocade handkerchief.

Aunt Yu's eyesight is so sharp, when she saw it, her pretty face hidden under the mask blushed slightly, and she turned her head away.

In addition to sharing porridge and steamed buns here, the Lin family also cooked a large bucket of millet porridge today, with a lot of red dates and a small amount of brown sugar in it. For the women to share the food, some of the servants had already rushed to the refugees to install the food, so that these women could line up separately.

There are quite a lot of women holding babies among the refugees, but after a short period of time, there was a sudden commotion. It turned out that several men also wanted to eat here, and one person made a louder noise. yelling,

"Why can these women eat millet porridge with red dates and brown sugar, but we can only eat rice porridge, it's not fair, it's not fair!"
