Chapter Twenty-Five: The Honest Man

When Li Yi woke up, the sky was already bright, and he estimated the time, which was almost equivalent to ten o'clock in the future. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the past, Xiaohuan would always wake him up early, and after washing, it was time to go to the school to teach the bear children.

Today is the first day after Qixi Festival, and it stands to reason that at this time, Li Yi should be in the school to tell the bear children about Sun Monkey vs. Yellow Wind Monster, but according to his wake-up time today, if he goes to the school now, he will be out of class when he arrives at the school.

After getting dressed, as soon as I got out of bed, I saw Xiaohuan coming in from outside with a basin of water, looked up and saw Li Yi, and said, "Uncle, you're awake!" ”

"Why didn't you wake me up this morning?" After sleeping for a long time, and when he got up, he was still a little dizzy, Li Yi rubbed his swollen head and asked.

"In the morning, when I saw my aunt sleeping sweetly, I didn't wake up my uncle." Xiaohuan put the copper basin on the shelf next to him and said, "Uncle, let's wash up first, I have already been to the school just now and told those children to come back to class tomorrow." ”

In fact, Li Yi didn't have the heart to give a lecture to the bear children today, so he casually washed his face with the water in the copper basin, and symbolically pulled a dry cloth to wipe it.

In this era, there was something called pancreas, which was equivalent to the soap of later generations, but it was used by dignitaries to wash their faces or take a bath on weekdays, and ordinary people could not afford to consume it at all.

Li Yi has long been thinking in his heart, how can he make soap, as an Aquarius with a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, it is a very unbearable thing to wash his face every day without being clean.

After washing his face, he dipped a little salt in a willow branch and brushed his teeth briefly. Salt is still very expensive in this world, and there are almost no poor people who use salt to brush their teeth, but he doesn't want to learn from Xiaohuan, chewing willow branches to clean his teeth...... That thing tastes too bitter, not bad for that sin.

Walking out of the door, I just saw Liu Ruyi coming back from outside, with fragrant sweat oozing from her forehead, she should have just come back from practice.

She just glanced at Li Yi and didn't speak, so she went back to her room to take a bath.

The room where Li Yi lived was in the front yard, and the back yard was where Xiaohuan and Liu Ruyi's sisters lived, and he hadn't gone in.

Seeing Liu Ruyi's back disappear, the corners of Li Yi's mouth twitched.

People are beautiful and thick-skinned, but they can hack themselves for hundreds of dollars, and they can pretend that nothing happened every day, at least Li Yi can't do this.

"Hey, Xiaohuan is here!"

A rough voice suddenly came from his side, startling Li Yi, and when he turned his head to look, he found a burly middle-aged man walking into the courtyard from outside.

When he saw this big man, Li Yi's body was shocked, and his face immediately darkened.

This big man and him are also old acquaintances.

At that time, Liu Ruyi gave an order, that is, he turned over and dismounted, carried his whole person and threw it on the horse, and suddenly saw this familiar face, Li Yi felt that the position of his lower abdomen was a little painful.

"Uncle Fang, is there something wrong?" Xiaohuan seemed very enthusiastic about this big man, and said with a smile.

The big man smiled innocently, raised the things in his hand, and said, "You just took the pheasant that you just caught from the mountain in the morning, you stewed it, and replenished the young lady's body." ”

Only then did Li Yi discover that Dahan was still carrying two "unknown objects" in his hands.

The golden feather crown, the body feathers are colorful, the belly is red, and the tail has long feathers------ red-bellied golden pheasant!

Li Yi glanced at the big man, this is the pheasant he hunted on the mountain?

Hunting and killing state-protected animals is a crime in the future......

However, the brocade chicken is also a chicken, and it is good to have meat. Moreover, the wild pheasant should be much better than the hens raised by the Wu family, right?

Suddenly, when Li Yi looked at Dahan again, he actually felt that his originally very hateful face was much more pleasing to the eye.

Xiaohuan was embarrassed, and said: "Uncle Fang, take these two pheasants back, let Auntie stew them for the children, we haven't finished eating the pheasants that my uncle picked up two days ago." ”

Last year's harvest was not good, every family in the village had a bad time, the Liu family was a little better, after all, it was the main family, at least they would not be hungry, but there were still many people, even the two meals a day had to be carefully planned, the big man in front of him belonged to this category of people, I am afraid that I can't eat meat twice a year, accept this pheasant, not only the lady will blame, Xiaohuan himself can't reach out.

"Hey, elder, don't dare to resign, Xiaohuan, can't be so rude......" Li Yi strode over, and took the golden chicken from the big man's hand with a smile, "That, Uncle Fang, thank you!" ”

Dahan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I am a rough person, I don't know what to say, my family said, if it wasn't for the old village owner who gave us a bite to eat, we would have starved to death by now, we can't be without conscience, and there is nothing at home, you can take these two pheasants." ”

The smile on Li Yi's face became even brighter, the people of ancient times were really simple and cute......

"Uncle......" The little maid tugged at the corner of Li Yi's clothes and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything.

The big man turned his head to look at Li Yi, and when he saw his thin appearance, he laughed, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Uncle's body is so thin, he should make up for it!" ”

There was a sudden strong force on his shoulder, and Li Yi's body staggered, and he almost fell to his knees.

Seeing this, the big man was stunned again, and then scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I'm really sorry, I have a lot of strength, I forgot that my uncle is a scholar and his body is weak, don't blame my uncle......"

got cheap and behaved, Li Yi's face twitched a little, and he doubted whether this guy's honesty was pretending......

"That...... I'll go back first, I'm still waiting for me at home! The big man rubbed his hands and said with some embarrassment.

"Goodbye, Uncle Fang!"

Watching the big man's figure disappear from a distance, Xiaohuan sighed leisurely and said, "Uncle, you shouldn't have accepted these two pheasants just now." ”

Li Yi rubbed his shoulder, which was still aching, and asked suspiciously, "Why?" ”

"Before, the old man was kind to Uncle Fang's family, but now there are two young ladies left in the family, Uncle Fang often sends some things over, and there are some old brothers of the old man, who usually help with everything...... "The little girl's good-looking eyebrows wrinkled, and said: "On weekdays, Miss doesn't let Xiaohuan collect these things, their days are ...... It's not easy either. ”

If he was carrying two hens from the Wu family, Li Yi would definitely kill chickens and pluck feathers without a little psychological burden, one to make chicken cutlets and the other to boil chicken soup......

But when he heard Xiaohuan say this, he suddenly felt that the pheasants he was carrying in his hands were much heavier.

It's not good to be favored for no reason, Li Yi thought about it and said: "Otherwise, let's make two pheasants and send some to them, even if it's a gift, how about it?" ”

When the little maid heard this, her eyes lit up suddenly, and she said, "Okay, okay, the things made by my uncle are so delicious, they will definitely like it." ”

Li Yi smiled, and after putting the pheasant away, he waved his hand and said, "Clean up, go to the mountain to pick some fresh mushrooms, we will eat chicken stewed mushrooms today!" ”
