Chapter 118: Let's Eat Meat!

t she still spoke, “I heard that your grandmother was hidden in a wooden house on the mountain. When our family found her this morning, she had already starved to death…”starvingGong Yunshu's bracelet...The general immediately turned around and ordered his personal soldiers, gathering five hundred cavalry, to prepare for departure. 。"Mister Li, you all wait here for a moment," 。There's war at the Marquis's side, I'll go to meet and escort the Marquis back. 。"House Yi and Liu Yang, those young lads, were at that fearless age, brimming with confidence in their own abilities. It was inevitable they would start causing trouble. 。Both of them grabbed Li Lao Si's arm, "Uncle, let's go and have a look, okay"Li Lao Si understood their thoughts, to be honest, he felt itchy inside too. 。After a moment of hesitation, he finally spoke, "General, could you please prepare three horses and three swords for us We also want to go and welcome the Lord." 。 。The general didn't reply. Jia Yi was afraid he wouldn't agree, so he turned his head and directly lifted the carriage a foot high with his hands. 。 The general was astonished, his eyes wide with surprise. A fully loaded wagon, weighing three hundred pounds at least, was being lifted by a boy barely half-grown! And the boy didn't even seem to break a sweat! "Alright, follow me closely on your journey. If you get hurt, I won't be able to explain it to the Lord." 。"The deputy general agreed, which made Li Lao Si and the two youngsters overjoyed. " 。Soon, three horses and three long swords were brought over. Li Lao Si and the two boys climbed onto their horses and ran with the troops. 。At first, Lao Si and the two boys were not quite used to it, swaying on horseback. After all, they usually rode donkeys, so riding a horse was different. 。But the three soon adapted, running all the way to the dock, boarded the ship, and sped across to the other side. 。Ye Shan guarded the carriage, watching as the large group of people ran away. He felt both worried and amused. 。 This serious lord's attendant turned into a driver who looked at the cars...Li Laosi and his gang didn't care about these things, or they simply had no time to care. 。As soon as they left the boat, the crowd spurred their horses into a frantic gallop and soon arrived at the battlefield. 。There were over three hundred barbarians, and four to five hundred border guards. They were evenly matched in terms of strength, but the border guards had the upper hand because the Marquis was brave and fought at the front, boosting their morale. 。The tribal people didn't expect the reinforcements to arrive so quickly. In a hurry, they retreated their troops, but were swiftly surrounded by the reinforcements who came upon them like dumplings. 。Lao Si was born with superhuman strength. Even against the ferocious barbarians, he could cleave them in half with a single blow, none could withstand it. 。Jia Yi and Liu Yang were still cautious, looking out for each other. When they encountered barbarians, they usually fought in pairs against one, so they didn't get hurt much and even killed two barbarians. 。That general watched from afar, and let out a slight sigh of relief. 。When he got the opportunity, and arrived at the Marquis' side, he loudly reported. 。"My Lord, Ye Shan and people from the Li family have brought you something. They said that you need reinforcements, and Li Siye brought two young men to help." 。Young Master Ye dealt with the barbarians before him, then turned his head and saw that Old Four Li and Jia Yi Liu Yang were also there. The three of them fought fiercely with the barbarians, so engrossed in the battle that they didn't even notice him. 。He found it rather amusing. Li's wife usually worried about their safety and wouldn't let them leave the house. Now, with the war coming to their doorstep, they were finally able to eat meat! Thinking this way, he slowly approached them, keeping watch from the side, afraid something might happen and hurt them. 。 Soon, most of the Manchus were killed. Seeing that things were going badly, the rest desperately fled, leaving behind a dozen or so corpses. 。Don't pursue a desperate enemy, especially not this side of the Yangtze River. 。Young Master Ye also ordered his troops to withdraw, quickly cleaned the battlefield, and then carried the wounded soldiers onto the ship and returned to Nanshan. 。

The wounded were carried away for treatment. Young Master Ye led everyone into his tent and finally had a moment alone with Old Li Four, “Fourth Brother, how did you get here How is everything at home”

Old Li Four was delighted to be addressed in such a manner by Young Master Ye, yet there was also a hint of nervousness in his expression.

On weekdays, Miss Ye would call her aunt "Mother," and her female cousins "Uncle." To be honest, the family truly treated Miss Ye as one of their own. 。But Yè Gongzi's status here is too noble; no one would dare to truly treat him as a brother. 。Master Ye didn't mind these things, and privately called... 。Li Lao Si was a generous person by nature, he didn't dwell on it for too long and replied directly. 。"My lord, rest assured, everything at home is well." 。The other day, my mother was thinking about you and asked Hongying to make a lot of food for you. She wanted to send it over to you. 。But because of something at home, it kept getting delayed. By the time we got to the field, the cucumbers and melons had all ripened. We picked some and brought them over together. 。"Watermelon and cantaloupe ripened so quickly It's only been three months since they were planted" Ye Gongzi was also happy, asking, "Are you selling them This stuff is precious. I didn't see much of it even when I was in Kyoto, so don't sell it cheaply!" 。Mrs. Cui helped find the head of the Liu family to be responsible for selling it, and in addition, Old Master Liu and Mr. Wen took the village chief and second brother into the palace to present it. 。The Emperor bestowed a name upon it, and now it is famous. Everyone is vying to buy it. 。But the family was afraid of attracting envy, so they only agreed on a decent price. They gave the rest to Master Liu's family, after all, they couldn't let them work for nothing. 。Li Lao Si was being sincere, Ye Gongzi kept nodding as he listened. He truly wanted to say more, but after just going through a battle, there were still some things that needed to be arranged. 。Then he said, "You all rest for a while, I'll go see the wounded camp, and be back soon." 。"My lord, let's go wash up. We reek of blood. If anyone at home smells it, we'll never be allowed out again." 。Li Laosi immediately agreed, then pulled over an excited Jia Yi and Liu Yang, and followed the guards to take a bath. 。When he returned, Young Master Ye had not finished his official duties yet. 。They took two small stoves and started cooking lunch in front of Ye Gongzi's tent. 。Put water in a pot and cook dried noodles. Rinse the noodles with cold water and transfer them to a bowl. Add your homemade meat sauce, some cucumber ribbons and cilantro, mix it all up, and enjoy this refreshing and satisfying meal perfect for summer! 。Then, prepare another small pot of minced meat. Add it to the other pot along with some oil beans and a few tablespoons of water. No need for any additional seasonings. After simmering until cooked through, sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving. 。The reddish-brown meat was already cooked and had been stewed for so long that it was completely soft and tender. Carefully lifting a piece with chopsticks, it trembled at the tip, as if it were about to break apart at any moment. 。And then there are the oil-glazed bean sprouts, glistening with sauce, just looking at them makes your mouth water. 。Not to mention the guards stationed around the tent, even the soldiers on patrol couldn't help but crane their necks for a closer look and sniff the fragrance. 。 Young Master Ye came back from outside, and saw Old Four Li leading the household staff and Liu Yang bustling about, so he couldn't help but slow his pace. 。As a marquis, the emperor's cousin, he naturally enjoyed wealth and honor. He wore fine silks and ate delicacies. 。There are countless people who want to win him over and curry favor with him. 。But he had a reason for being so fond of the Li family. 。The clothes that Li Jia sewed for him were truly made with worry about him being cold, striving to give him warmth. 。Li Jia prepared food for him, truly wanting him to eat his fill. 。The Li family truly cares about him and sincerely hopes for his safety. 。What's precious is this genuine heart, more valuable than anything in the world. 。this time. 。Perhaps having heard that she liked gold bracelets, there were actually four pairs of solid gold bracelets in the box. They felt quite heavy when you shook them. 。Any pair you take out w...
