Chen Xingluo looked at the boy in his arms, "Is this your younger brother?"
"Yes, my younger brother Yu Hefeng, whose nickname is Feng'er."
Yu Heting took out a washed white handkerchief and wiped the boy's mouth, then took out a piece of hard cake and broke off a piece for him to grind his teeth.
The little boy was not picky. He grabbed it with his fat little hands and gnawed it. However, his eyes were staring at the chicken in the lump, trying to achieve the purpose of looking at the plum blossoms to quench his thirst.
Several people sitting there twitched their lips, and Yu Heting's face turned redder.
"Forgive me, forgive me..."
"Young Master Yu is very cute. Brother Yu is so lucky."
Chen Xingluo changed his expression without changing his expression and changed the subject. He also introduced several members of the Shen family to him. After Yu Heting greeted them one by one, his expression calmed down a bit.
Cheng Xi smiled and said, "We haven't passed through a town for a long time. We have already eaten up the dry food on the road, so we just hunted some game to fill our stomachs. I wonder if Mr. Yu can share some pancakes?"
"Mrs. Shen, you're welcome. I bake the pancakes myself. Please don't dislike them."
"Thank you Mr. Yu Kangdai. There is a lot of game. Why don't we eat together?"
"..."
When Yu Heting heard that there was no reason he didn't understand, he saw the bright eyes of the younger brother in his arms and sighed again, "Brother Shen is such a blessing."
Next to the fire, Shen Xingqi, who was responsible for three meals a day, made a move, took back the hand that was about to turn over the green onion pancake, divided the beggar's chicken into small portions and put them into oil paper bags.
The chicken absorbs the aroma of the seasonings in the belly and the lotus leaves wrapped on the outside. It is even more delicious and fragrant after being roasted at high temperature for a long time.
Just now he didn't notice anything due to the distance, but now the smell was so close that Yu Heting realized how much advantage he had taken.
This taste is too overbearing!
Just one smell makes people want to stop. No wonder his little brother is drooling with greed. It turns out that it is not because Feng'er has not eaten meat for too long, but because the meat is already mouth-watering enough.
"Master Yu, would you like to try it?"
"Thank you, Miss Shen. Thank you."
He took the oil paper bag, and the fragrance inside floated to his nose uncontrollably.
Yu Heting took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the greed in his stomach, tore off a piece of roasted chicken that was tender and put it into the mouth of the boy in his arms. The little boy's eyes lit up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Brother, good time!"
"Feng'er likes it?"
"I like it, good time, brother time!"
"You eat first, brother will eat later."
The pancakes baked earlier were a bit irritated by being left out for too long, so he tore them into small pieces little by little and fed them to the boy with great patience.
Seeing this, Shen Xingluo and others slowed down their eating speed and were not in a hurry at this moment.
The autumn weather was slightly cooler, so Su Zhan added more firewood to the fire. There was a small pot boiling water next to it, and soon it started to bubble and bubble.
After a while, the boy burped, and Yu Heting put the remaining chicken and pancakes into his mouth, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
The chicken is crispy, juicy and fragrant, with a unique flavor.
As expected, it is as overbearing as its fragrance, making people want to eat it again!
"Miss Shen is good at her craftsmanship, and Yu admires her."
He didn't expect that the lump of mud could make such delicious food, which was several times better than the roast chicken he had eaten in Liuzhou Restaurant.
Yu Heting held a piece of pancake in his right hand and sighed silently.
This favor... I owe you a lot.
The two parties here were getting along extremely harmoniously. The unattended fire not far away burned red and then went out because no one added more wood. The faces of the men in brocade clothes near the luxury carriage became increasingly gloomy.
"He is quite shameless. The way he eats and drinks has completely embarrassed our Liuzhou."
"They are all country folks, so they must have a lot to talk about."
"Isn't it just that his studies are better? If Master Cen knew that his disciple looked like this, I don't know what his reaction would be?"
"Brother Sun, that handsome boy in Tsing Yi is also very arrogant. He doesn't even give us face. Do you want to teach him a lesson?"
】
"There are many people during the day. Since we are all going to Beijing, we must be doing it through official channels. We will do it at night."
"Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Revolutionary friendship is made over a meal...that's impossible.
The two brothers from the Shen family and the Yu family had a meal together, and finally advanced from strangers to semi-acquaintances who had met once.
After Su Zhan hitched the carriage, the others set off again. Yu Heting put his younger brother into the carriage and drove behind the Shen family, gradually driving away from the woods where they had settled.
In the Shen family carriage, Shen Xingqi looked at the dilapidated carriage behind and sighed.
"I originally thought our car was ordinary enough, but I didn't expect there would be something worse."
"It's not easy in today's world."
This snow disaster has cast a shadow on most people. The wealthy people may not have that great influence, and the poor will only make things worse, adding another burden to families who are not already wealthy.
Although they were mainly eating, drinking and having fun along the way, they saw quite a few ragged people.
This time, the additional test for the scientific examination can be regarded as an encore.
Shen Xingqi was in a somewhat depressed mood, but she was naturally optimistic and soon felt relieved.
"The little boy is very energetic. He is as white and fat as a lotus root. However, Mr. Yu is skinny in human form. He loves his younger brother but is jealous of others. He must have extraordinary academic achievements."
"You see clearly."
"That's right, I'm very smart."
"Yes, yes, there is no one in our family who is not smart."
It was a long way to the north, and the territory of Zhuozhou was quite large. The little girl soon fell asleep as the carriage rocked.
Cheng Xi lowered his voice and looked at the man who was bowing his head in thought, "Do you know that Yu Heting? He also passed the exam this year?"
"No."
Chen Xingluo said, "He will be the next top pick."
"?"
Cheng Xi was stunned, "He didn't take part in this year's scientific examination?"
"Someone is worried about me. My younger brother disappeared the day before the exam, and he missed the time to enter the venue."
"How miserable."
The existence of a villain is simply impossible to guard against.
Cheng Xi sighed heartlessly, took out a pillow from the space and quickly fell asleep while no one was watching.
Chen Xingluo looked at the sleeping faces of the two people in the carriage, with a bit of a smile in his eyes.
That evening, when the last ray of sunset disappeared in the west, the carriage entered the city gate of Zhuozhou and stopped in front of an ordinary inn.
Su Zhan handed the horse rein to Wang Shu and went to the inn to negotiate. Not long after, he led a few people in.
Since the inn was close to the city gate, the Yu family's carriage also stopped and spent dozens of copper coins to open a room with a yellow font to stay in.
"My boss, my subordinates have already prepared dishes in the small kitchen after hearing that you and your wife arrived. They were just bought this afternoon. They are very fresh."
"..."
Chen Xingluo was speechless for a long time as he looked at the shopkeeper who was diligently asking for credit. Cheng Xi burst out laughing.
"It seems that our name has been publicized internally for a long time. Shopkeeper Wu, do you guys still have contact with each other on weekdays?"
