An ancient book says: No matter how delicious something is, don’t eat too much!
A black-bone chicken is not that big for a fool's belly, but if you add a can of soup, it will kill you!
Not to mention that the chef specially added ginseng, velvet antler, fish maw and other tonic ingredients to the soup in order to complement the nourishing properties of the black-bone chicken!
Take one bite and it's delicious! After two bites, you will be full of energy! But after dozens of mouthfuls, no matter how delicious it is, it is no different from poison.
Originally, all the idiot had to say was, "No, I really can't eat anymore!"
Xiao Han, who was always considerate of his subordinates, would borrow a ladder to get off the donkey. There was no way he would really let this guy eat this pot of soup!
But the fool got into trouble today. He stopped three times in one meal and drank up the black-bone chicken soup, which was not much smaller than a wine vat.
Of course, the consequence of doing this was that he groaned all night long and suffered nosebleeds. He almost made his roommate Xiaodong think there was poison in the food and arrested the cook.
It was not easy to survive the night.
Early the next morning, Ziyi got up early and went to the Yamen to discuss the food issue with the county magistrate, squire, and grain merchants.
For a business like this, Xiao Han didn't have to do it himself, and he didn't lose his identity, so he asked Ziyi to negotiate on his behalf.
Xiao Han originally thought that such a large grain transaction would be discussed for a long time.
After all, food is no more important than other commodities in today's society. Suddenly withdrawing so much at one time can easily cause local prices to skyrocket, and then cause panic among the people. Therefore, a detailed and feasible regulation must be established!
However, he did not expect that within an hour, someone would report that Ziyi had returned by carriage.
"Why are you back so early? Did something go wrong? Isn't there not much food here?"
In the mansion, when he heard Zi Yi's return, Xiao Han tensed up and immediately left the messenger behind and hurried to the front yard.
When he arrived at the front yard, he saw Ziyi getting off the carriage, so he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How's it going? There's not enough food here?"
When Ziyi heard the sound, he turned around and saw that it was Xiao Han. He turned around and said to him, "Master Hou."
Xiao Han was anxious and waved his hand: "Don't worry about these false gifts, food is the important thing now!"
Ziyi stood up, looked at Xiao Han with a smile and said, "Master Hou, you are worrying too much. The Huzhou County Magistrate heard about the amount we need. Although he also had a toothache, after discussing with the grain merchants, he felt that it was not enough. "
"Oh? Is the official salary alone not enough?" Xiao Han's brows relaxed, but his expression still seemed a little disappointed.
"It's not enough." Ziyi shook his head and said softly: "There is so much food needed to supply the army, how can it be possible with the official food in one place? I heard their discussion, they should use the food in the official warehouse and the free warehouse first , and then the rest will be transferred from several surrounding counties, so that we can barely reach the number we need."
"Haha, it seems that I still overestimated the saying 'Huguang is familiar with the world'." Xiao Han originally planned to do all his work in one place, which saved him from running around.
But now it seems that he still thought wrong about the grain output and reserves at this time, so he had to smile bitterly and stood there, not knowing what he was thinking.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Xiao Han was still thinking about the food, but Ziyi unnaturally crossed his arms.
She rode a carriage back and forth, so the clothes she wore were naturally not too heavy. At this time, Xiao Han left her in the yard to talk for a while. Her thin clothes were already frozen through, and the cold wind penetrated, which made her pretty face turn pale. .
"They must hurry up to raise food. Spring is about to begin, and the wind waits for no one... Huh? What's wrong with you, Ziyi?"
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Han finally let out a long sigh. It was also at this time that he realized something was wrong with Ziyi. Why was her face so pale? Still shaking?
"Oh, Leng, why didn't you say anything!" Xiao Han slapped his head in annoyance, and quickly took off his fur coat, put it on Zi Yi's body without any explanation, then took her cold hand and ran all the way into the house.
Putting on clothes and holding hands, Xiao Han did these actions subconsciously, without thinking about the relationship between men and women at all.
After all, he is usually careless and careless, and he doesn't behave properly when he gets into trouble with the idiot Xiaodong and others. It's normal for him to put their arms around each other, kick them, and hit them.
So at this moment, he was holding Zi Yi's hand and just walked forward. He didn't notice that Zi Yi's face, which was slightly white from the cold, turned into a ripe red persimmon at this moment.
"He put his clothes on me, and he held my hand..."
Smelling the clothes that still smelled of Xiao Han, Ziyi blushed so much that he almost bled. His movements were more like a marionette, and he could only mechanically follow Xiao Han into the front hall.
"Sit down quickly, are you stupid? Why don't you say anything when it's so cold! Look how cold your face is..." Anxious, he pulled Zi Yi to the stove in the main hall. Xiao Han was just about to pull her to sit down and warm up by the fire, but suddenly he Found something was wrong.
"Eh? Wasn't your face turned blue from the cold just now? Why is it so red now?!"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Han wanted to slap himself again.
Why is it so red? Aren't you holding on to someone else's hand with your claws?
Time seems to have frozen at this moment!
Xiao Han, who knew the reason, should have let go immediately, but for some reason, he had no intention of letting go at all, and Zi Yi made no move to pull away.
The two of them just kept holding hands and standing in front of the burning stove.
"boom……"
In the corner of the room, the sound of a heavy object falling broke the stagnation.
"who!"
Hearing the sound, the two people holding hands separated like lightning, and then looked together towards the place where the sound came from!
There, a huge butt flashed and disappeared. Only a flower stand was still lying on the ground.
"What a tragedy! How did you break up the Marquis' tryst with his lover? It's over now. Will he kill me to silence me?"
The idiot holding a vase in his hand ran very fast on the path in the garden!
At this time, he finally understood the benefits of this twisted path. It is not easy to chase people!
Speaking of which, the idiot also carried it on his back.
Originally, he just wanted to walk his legs and eat something, but as soon as he came to the front hall, he saw Xiao Han running in, pulling Zi Yi.
In shock, he hurriedly hid in a corner, searching around for an escape route while hiding.
Finally, while the two of them were in a daze, the idiot touched the back door. He just wanted to sneak away without anyone noticing, but he didn't expect that his butt was too big and knocked down the flower stand.
As a result, it turned out like this: He caught the vase, but failed to catch the flower stand...
