Chapter 17
There is no impermeable wall in King Ning's Mansion. The fact that Lu Huan was called to Mei'an Garden by the old lady soon came to Mrs. Ning's ears.
She gritted her teeth and threw the tea cup heavily on the table. The tea was poured out, shocking the eyeliner of the subordinate who came to report.
The servant knelt down in a hurry: "Madam calm down!"
Madam Ning said angrily to the grandma beside her: "What the hell is the old lady thinking? Is it true that because of the last thing at the creek, did she really favor that bastard?!"
"Wenxiu was punished by her to think behind closed doors for a whole month. After she came out, the day lilies hunted by Qiuyan Mountain after half a month were cold! It turned out that she actually wanted that bastard to replace Wenxiu!"
Seeing Madam Ning's anger, Madam Jia knelt down and said: "As long as Madam you don't want the bastard to go, can he really go there?"
Mrs. Ning Wang sneered: "A few princes and children from all major families in the capital will go hunting in the Qiuyan Mountain. How can a small scorpion get on the table on this occasion? The old lady even coaxed him to replace Wenxiu's seat! What can you do?"
Mother Jia said: "There is still half a month before the hunting. There are too many madams to prevent him from appearing that day. Why should he be anxious? Whenever there is a little accident, he can't even get out of King Ning's Mansion, and he can't even get on a horse. How to participate in Qiuyan Mountain hunting?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ning Wang's face slightly improved.
——Indeed, just a bastard.
Although this concubine is exceptionally tough and tenacious, so that he has not been able to kill him in these years, but if he really moves to make him disappear in King Ning's Mansion, wouldn't it be easy?
She looked fierce, and asked the next person a few more words about what Lu Huan was doing recently.
Since the old lady instructed him to give the house to him and did not allow people to disturb him, no one really dared to approach the remote old chai yard. After all, King Ning was also afraid of the old lady, no one in this mansion dared to disobey the old lady's order.
The answer got was naturally-that bastard spent a couple of dollars, bought a lot of working tools, seeds, and some chickens, and started planting some vegetables in the yard to raise chickens.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ning laughed mockingly, thinking that he was going to use that bit of silver to lay people down and do something big, but she didn't expect that he was just going to dress warm and eat and raise them in the narrow corner of his side. Chicken grows vegetables.
No matter, this poor little man has no ambition, but he is too wary of him.
...
Mrs. Ning Wang relaxed a little bit her guard.
From the second day on, Lu Huan was waiting for the person to reply to his note.
When he opened his eyes in the morning, he felt nervous. He jumped out of bed before he could put on a robe in the future, walked to the table in a thin coat, picked up the paper with a complex and indescribable mood, and looked up— —
But on the front, only his ink penetrating the back of the paper is solitary on it, and there is no ink dot of the second person.
"..."
Not giving up, Lu Huan turned the paper again and glanced at the reverse side.
However, the reverse side is also blank.
Lu Huan lowered his eyes lightly, and there was a trace of disappointment in his dark eyes that he could not even notice...
But he quickly raised his head, put the paper back on the table, continued to press it with the ink, and put the lantern that had been burned out to make it more conspicuous.
He thought that according to the law of the appearance of the person, the person should have not appeared last night, and it is normal to not see the handwriting left by him.
Wait another three days.
*
The rooster crowed outside the house. Lu Huan planned to go out today to exchange some food for a bow and arrow in preparation for the hunting in the Qiuyan Mountain half a month later.
However, the bows and arrows sold by small vendors in the market are all low-quality bows and arrows used by ordinary hunters. The arm tension is not enough and the arrows are not sharp enough. If you want a good bow, you might as well buy birch wood and feather feathers and carve them yourself. .
Both birch and feather feathers are rare materials. If you want to buy them back, you need at least fifty taels of silver.
These five taels of silver are not a small amount. King Ning's Mansion's monthly silver is only three taels a month.
Lu Huan frowned, not thinking about it for now.
He put on his old robe, lowered his head and touched the animal skin that was sewn up by the man, and immediately felt a rough grind on his fingertips.
But remembering that someone sews stitch by stitch, the stitches are densely packed, he has always had no expression, even the indifferent corners of his eyes and brows still involuntarily reveal a bit of softness——
No matter how rough, warm is enough.
He glanced at the overly luxurious fox fur that the person in the closet gave. Although graceful and luxurious, he did not have the slightest thought of touching it, let alone the idea of taking it to the pawnshop to exchange money because of lack of money.
He walked out of the house and, as in the previous few days, went into the chicken shed first to see if there were new eggs.
As soon as the chickens saw him walk in, they flew up.
Lu Huan was looking at the cold-proof shed that the man had placed for his chicken shed—he knew the linoleum paper and other things he used, but the wood construction method of the whole cold-proof shed was strange. He had never written it in any ancient books or People who raise chickens have seen such a structure.
But what is strange is that under this weird and novel cold shelter, the temperature inside is obviously much warmer than the cold outside.
In other words, this cold-proof shelter is very novel and useful, and even so far no wealthy people have ever used it.
But how could that person make it--?
Lu Huan was puzzled in his heart, and with curiosity, he approached the hen's nest, stretched out his hand to explore, and was immediately stunned.
He looked uncontrollably shocked--
Because he just stretched out his hand and touched it, he touched more than a few eggs, as if there were dozens of them!
The nest was a bit too dark, Lu Huan went back to get the oil lamp, and then hurried back to light it up, taking out the eggs one by one. The more he took it out, the more surprised he was, because in just one day, the number of eggs laid by these two dozen hens was beyond his imagination!
When all was taken out, the straw on the ground was almost covered.
Lu Huan Ning eyebrow counted, there were about sixty-eight eggs.
...Was piled into a small hill.
The hens looked at him innocently, and then pecking frantically around the feed, as if there was some stimulant in the feed.
he:"……"
Lu Huan learned from ancient books that, under normal circumstances, a hen can only lay an egg a day.
What's more, it is an extremely cold winter. In many places, there is no harvest and frost disasters, and the number of eggs laid by hens will be greatly reduced. The chicken vendors in the market outside are all sad and worried that they will not be able to survive this winter.
But what's going on here?
How do these hens lay their eggs like crazy? !
Still next?
When I came in, there were hens sneaking in and laying eggs? !
He looked at the fodder and the cold shelter that the man had placed here again with a weird expression, only feeling extremely complicated in his heart.
...If it had been before, he would have thought that there was a fraud and would not easily believe the person, but after a few days, he temporarily believed that the person did not harm his heart. In that case, these eggs should be no problem.
Thinking of this, Lu Huan's face, white as snow, was covered with a warm light by the oil lamp in his hand.
He looked down at these eggs, and after a while, he gently cocked the corners of his mouth, found the basket, sat on the floor like a child, and packed the eggs one by one.
...
Suxi has been in the hospital for more than ten days, and it was about time to be discharged. So early in the morning, my mother came to the hospital to accompany her for the final review. After the review is over, she can be discharged tomorrow.
Su's mother is not worried about money anymore. She feels refreshed and walks around. She also bought two pancakes for Suxi generously. WeChat transferred her two hundred as pocket money this week.
Suxi was moved to tears with the pancake fruit in his mouth.
After such a delay all morning, three full days have passed in the game. Suxi couldn't help it, and when he was still queuing for inspection, he took out his mobile phone to log in to the game.
When she went online again, it was rare that Cub Cub did not go out, but was busy in the yard—and also put on clothes made of animal skins that she prepared for him.
If the original cubs were simple strokes of thin and thin styles wearing old white robes, then the fur of the animal skin makes the current cubs short-handed and short-footed Orion style, which looks like a busy on the screen. Little leopard who is busy going!
Suxi lined up, puffed up his cheeks and held back his smile, his heart turned cute!
She now knows the psychology of those players who buy skins for the game characters Krypton Gold-
After changing her, she also wanted to see Zai Zai wearing all kinds of clothes.
...It's a pity that this cub is more arrogant and refuses to easily change the clothes she gave him.
But what is Zai Zai doing?
Suxi saw him traveling to and from the chicken shed, carefully zooming in on the basket in his hand, and when he saw it, he was also shocked-Damn, why are there so many eggs? In just three days, these hens laid so many eggs? !
Is the effect of oxytocin purchased from the mall so terrible? !
"There is also the contribution of the cold shelter." The system said: "All the goods in the mall are 100% effective, so the recovery effect of typhoid medicine is also relatively strong. Are you sure there are no more Krypton girls?"
Although Suxi had money, she was definitely not an uncontrolled girl who would spend a lot of money. She ignored the system, her aunt stared at the cubs running around on the interface kindly for a while, and then switched the interface to In his room, he intends to see if there is anything to clean up.
So, at this moment, she caught a glimpse of the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the bank of the table and those words.
...
--"who are you?"
The handwriting is very powerful, and the writing is fast but not scribble, which shows the complex and chaotic mood of Zai Zai writing.
Suxi was taken aback for a moment. Is this also a part of the interaction between the protagonist and the player in game design?
Of course she wanted to interact, but she tried to pull the brush on the bank of the table, and when she dragged it crookedly on the paper, she couldn't get any ink.
Being restricted, there is still no way to communicate with Zai Zai.
Krypton must reach 100 o'clock-when does this have to be done? !
Suxi threw the pen helplessly.
She said to the system: "Currently, the two main missions are still not written, so besides the main mission, is there any way to increase the points as soon as possible?"
The system said: "In addition to the main line, you can pave the way for your protagonist by enhancing his skills, interpersonal relationships, external environment, external image, and physical fitness. These can also increase points."
The external environment is one of the most krypton points since Suxi played the game. In addition to the fact that the interpersonal relationship has slapped twice and the points have been increased, there is almost no other point that has been added.
physical fitness--
Is there a way to coax Cubs into doing push-ups and other exercises? But I can't communicate with him, and for the time being, I definitely can't let him do this subjectively.
skill--
Just when Suxi was going to study how to start in this regard.
The system pops up a side mission: “Secondary mission one: Please tie a beautiful bow on the bow and arrow that the protagonist will make. There will be rewards for completing the side mission.”
Suxi:............
? ? ?
What kind of weird task is this? Could it be that although Zai Zai looks cold and arrogant, he is actually a delicate little prince who likes bows in his heart?
She asked: "Are there any other side tasks that can be done at the moment?"
The system pops up: "King Ning's Mansion has a post-cook named Master Ding, who is very proficient in spring plowing and autumn harvesting. He was accused by the housekeeper a few days ago, endured humiliation, and is about to resign and return to the country. He will become the protagonist in the future. The right-hand man who buys fields and conducts business transactions outside under a pseudonym, please find him and let him use him."
These two side missions are a bit ahead, Suxi will write it down for now.
She turned off the side task interface and went to the yard to see where Zai Zai went.
...
In the courtyard, Lu Huan was putting all the eggs in a wooden bucket, wrapped in an old robe, and went to the side entrance of King Ning's Mansion.
For these three days, these hens were kept in a warm shed, keeping the number of eggs laid by each hen of two to three per day.
Until this time, he had counted all the eggs, and there were a total of 192 eggs.
So many eggs are very heavy, if it weren't for Lu Huan to practice martial arts as a thief, he would be too heavy to lift it. After the guard who was going to trade for him outside King Ning's Mansion took over, he directly bent over and was startled.
The side door was close to Si Yiniang's yard, and Suxi had already unlocked it last time, so she followed to turn around the interface and watched the cub handing the egg to the guard.
All the bubbles from the guard's head were:
? ? ? ? ! ! !
Guard C opened the robe above the barrel, and after seeing so many eggs in it, his chin was about to fall, and the whole person was dumbfounded!
Everyone in King Ning's Mansion knows that after the third young master received a reward from the old lady for a whole house, he began to grow vegetables and raise some chickens. This is understandable. After all, the third young master is not like the other two young masters every month. There are twenty-two months of silver. Although he is now in a much better situation than before, he is equivalent to being exiled and can only be self-sufficient in food and clothing.
So he took Lu Huan's money and promised to help Lu Huan go out of King Ning's Mansion to trade. He also thought that Lu Huan was just selling something every month in exchange for a little food.
Where did you expect it-
Only a few days after the third master bought a few chickens, did he let the hens lay so many eggs?
So many eggs? !
Ma!
Guard B forgot to pay, almost fainted.
A catty of pork is thirty cents, an egg is six cents, and the one hundred and ninety-two eggs is one thousand one hundred and fifty-two cents, which is more than one or two cents.
If the three young masters can raise a couple of silver in just three days of raising chickens, wouldn't it be much wealthier than the two young masters in one month if you add other plantings? !
This……
Guard Bing swallowed, and suddenly felt that quitting from King Ning's Mansion and following the three young masters is a good idea.
He secretly sold out for Lu Huan, while Lu Huan walked back from the side door.
Of course, Lu Huan never thought about staying in King Ning's Mansion, relying on this small plot of land to grow something to be self-sufficient.
He needs silver, so he needs more land and more manpower, and the novel and special cold-proof shelter that the man sent to him—if he can understand the principle, he may be able to copy many of them and use them outside. Get a farm with an alias.
Once there is a farm, there will be a steady stream of silver.
But for Lu Huan, these ideas are not a top priority.
His top priority is that it's dusk on the third day. Did that person... see the note he left?
Thinking of this, Lu Huan hurriedly walked through the bamboo forest and walked back.
In the past, every time he came back here, he was completely deserted, and there was no fluctuation in his heart. He only felt that the world was so big, but it seemed that there was nowhere for him to return. But now, there was something in his heart that he couldn't even notice. The faint hope came.
……Whether that person is playing tricks or making fun of, he actually hopes that person will continue and not disappear suddenly...
Lu Huan pursed his lips, his dark eyes drooping slightly, trying his best not to let the light in his eyes be discovered, and with a complex and unspeakable mood, he tried his best to pretend to be calm and return to the house.
however……
He walked quickly, held his breath and glanced at the note, but still—
Only his own handwriting.
However, Lu Huan's gaze suddenly condensed-the brush next to the paper was clearly passive. Although the traces of passiveness were very subtle, he was surprisingly aware and was still aware of it.
So, that is to say, that person has been here!
...But, there is no answer.
Why?
Disdain it?
Or-think it is unnecessary?
The cold wind blew in gently from outside the window, blowing the thin paper in Lu Huan's hand. He was silent, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it away.
...
And Suxi outside the screen can only watch, Zuzab lowered his bun's face, the light in his eyes faded away fleetingly.
she was:……
The pancakes in my hand were not tasty for a moment.
