Chapter 24 Eat and Drink

The winter sun is shining on my body, making me feel lazy and comfortable.

He asked the little beggar next to him to bring the tattered wooden altar boards from the temple to help the two cold patients shield themselves from the cold wind.

"I'll go to the village to borrow a fire later. You guys quickly pick up some branches and dry firewood and start the fire first!"

After finishing the two cold cases, Wu Dong started to be busy again.

There is a small village three to five miles away from the ruined temple. It can be seen from the memory of the original owner that the little beggars headed by him are very familiar with the villagers.

Most of the villagers are simple and kind-hearted, and they often helped beggars like them in the past.

"Brother A Dong, why are you making a fire? Shouldn't we go to the town and eat on the running water mat?"

There was a little beggar who was not happy, and his withered stomach growled in protest at the right time.

"you're so dumb!"

Wu Dong rolled his eyes, his hungry stomach started to get upset, and he said angrily: "With the way we look, it would be nice if we could get some leftovers!"

"Brother A Dong, we just need some leftovers. Do we still want to serve them to the table?"

Wu Dong was speechless. Although the original owner remembered that most of the meals he asked for were leftovers, he really had no intention of tasting them.

Not to mention the modern world, which is extremely rich in materials, even in the remote mountain village in his previous life, with the food and vegetable subsidies provided by Evil Tiger Village, he never ate any leftovers.

His purpose is, of course, to serve at the table!

Now if I tell the little beggars, they won't believe it. Wu Dong doesn't bother to say more, he just asks them not to be lazy, and then goes to the village to borrow a fire.

An hour later, he not only borrowed fire, but also got a few dried fruits with his sweet mouth.

The two cold patients who had been in the sun for a while and whose complexions had obviously improved had one pill each. Wu Dong shared the remaining two pills with the little beggars.

Soon, a flame rose in the main hall of the ruined temple, and a stone platform was built around it. A half-length clay pot was placed on it, and the pot was filled with water.

"Brother A Dong, what are you going to do?"

"bath!"

"No, we are beggars!"

"So what if you are a beggar? Today I will tell you to have a good experience!"

"..."

At noon, the street in front of Mr. Huang's mansion is bustling with activity.

Rows of running tables were arranged along the street, and tempting delicacies made of chicken, duck, and fish were served to the banquets by the Huang family's servants. Suddenly, the whole street was filled with the rich aroma of vegetables.

Reputable people in the town were invited to sit at the first and second seats, and were personally entertained by important figures from the Huang family.

Neighbors and townspeople who came after hearing the news filled the running water mats.

As the little steward of the Huang family, Tian Qi led two guards to take charge of several tables in the flowing water table, specializing in maintaining order and preventing any bad troubles.

The tables he was responsible for were located near the street corners, and the guests at the tables above were basically poor people.

Looking at the visitors with shabby clothes and disheveled dishes, Tian Qi felt a sense of superiority in his heart. He shouted a few words of greeting from time to time, causing the visitors to show awe-inspiring smiles on their cautious faces.

If it weren't for today being a happy day for the Huang family, Tian Qi wouldn't have even glanced at these poor people.

At this time, a scrawny young man in ragged clothes walked up the street corner, attracting his attention.

At first glance, the young man looks like a beggar.

After all, although the clothes worn by poor people are shabby and ugly, they can still be regarded as normal clothes.

But the clothes on this young man were so torn, they looked like a bunch of strips of cloth.

He also has a skinny body shape that fits the definition of a beggar.

only……

Although the young man's clothes are in tatters, his hands and face are clean, and his hair and face are also very fresh. How can he be half as slovenly as a beggar?

More importantly, the confident smile on his face and the aura in his movements gave him the trance-like illusion of meeting his own young master.

Therefore, Tian Qi watched helplessly as this young man, whose temperament and attire were completely inconsistent with his body shape, slowly came to the flowing table and sat down to enjoy the free food.

The two Huang family guards around him saw that Manager Tian was silent, so they naturally did not act as evildoers.

That's right, the young man who swaggered over to eat was none other than Wu Dong, who had just traveled through time in the early morning.

The little beggars don’t quite understand…

Since Mr. Huang is setting up the flowing water banquet, he naturally hopes that it will be more lively and the more people there, the better.

As long as it doesn't affect the normal operation of the running table and doesn't hinder the guests dining at the table, it's not that difficult to serve a hot meal on the table.

Wash yourself well and maintain good personal hygiene. Even if your clothes are a little ragged, it won't be a big deal.

Being at the table where poor people gather is not too conspicuous.

Of course, his confident temperament and slow manner of enjoying his meal still attracted the attention of his classmates and even the steward of the Huang family not far away.

"Whose family does this kid belong to? Why does he look familiar?"

"Look at the eating appearance, if you don't know, you might think it's a young master from some family!"

"I didn't know how to eat such a good meal quickly. There will be times when this kid will regret it!"

"..."

The poor townspeople at the same table were not forgetting to murmur while they feasted.

Looking at their gobbling attitude, they wanted to eat all the dishes on the table in one go.

Wu Dong didn't pay attention. He was proficient in medical science and naturally knew that according to his current physical condition, if he didn't care about eating and drinking, big problems would probably occur.

Instead of competing with the diners at the table for big fish and meat, which my body couldn't bear at the moment, I just ate the fresh soup, mixed vegetables on the table, and rice slowly until I was seven-tenths of full.

By this time, the feeling of weakness in his body was gone, and he no longer continued to enjoy the Huang family's flowing rice dishes.

Not bothering to pay attention to the strange or even stupid looks from the diners at the same table, I went directly to the place where steamed buns and steamed buns were distributed.

"Master Huang is really a kind-hearted person. I wish his children and grandchildren happiness and good health. Give me ten steamed buns. I will take them back and slowly experience Master Huang's kindness!"

Saying a few nice compliments after eating someone else's meal is nothing. Wu Dong didn't mean to be embarrassed at all, he just opened his mouth.

It must be said that the town squire surnamed Huang was very generous this time. Not only did he have a formal running-water banquet, but he even prepared buns and steamed buns for passers-by.

There are always townspeople who cannot come to have a meal due to various reasons, and there are also passers-by who are not so shameless to eat and drink. The Huang family has also taken this into consideration.

Wu Dong was not polite at all. He complimented him beautifully and asked the Huang family's servant to deliver the buns. Without saying a word, he wrapped ten buns in straw paper without even daring to fart one more.

You have to ask Wu Dong if he has any other needs.

He is about to feel Master Huang's "kindness". Is it possible that as a servant of the Huang family, he still dares to stop him?
