Travel through the famine years with your space, and become the richest man in five countries with your children Chapter 258 The whereabouts of the Dragon Guard
It turns out that the pigs at Uncle Li Zheng’s house have been killed, and even the vegetables for the butchered pigs have been cooked, and they are just waiting for Shen Qingyu to arrive to start the meal.
Embarrassed, Shen Qingyu quickly packed herself up and followed Qi Yunxiao, who had already dressed neatly, to Uncle Zheng's house.
"It's all your fault! I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so I overslept!" Shen Qingyu couldn't help but kicked Qi Yunxiao in the leg.
Qi Yunxiao seemed to have no idea at all, and smiled: "It's hard to get home, and I have to have a full meal."
Shen Qingyu: "You shameless person!"
Qi Yunxiao disagreed: "My wife, why am I so shameless?"
Come on, I can’t speak for such a man.
Shen Qingyu went to Uncle Li Zheng's house and found that all the clan elders and influential people in the village were there, and there were three tables of people sitting there.
Seeing Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao coming, everyone said hello. Uncle Li Zheng asked Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu to take a seat.
Shen Qingyu originally wanted to say that she was just a junior and should not be seated.
But Qi Yunxiao had already gone there first: "Come on."
"That's right, don't be polite. You are now the princess and can speak in front of the emperor." Cuixi smiled and pushed her to sit next to Qi Yunxiao.
Shen Qingyu stopped being stubborn and sat next to Qi Yunxiao.
Pig-killing dishes are made by boiling pig intestines, pig blood, pork cutlets, etc., into a big pot with only the most basic salt, and it will be so fragrant that it will make people drool.
Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao were spoon-fed by the enthusiastic clan elders, and the bowls were quickly filled!
Looking at the white meat and brown pig blood in the bowl, Shen Qingyu was very lucky: Shen Changshou and his wife had been making brine at home for so long, so they knew how to clean these things to make them more delicious.
Otherwise, you would definitely not dare to cook the intestines in this pork-killing dish.
After eating the pig-killing vegetables, the men in the village bought some meat in groups to go home for the New Year, while the women began to steam glutinous rice and prepare to make glutinous rice cakes and rice crackers.
Shen Qingyu went and asked Zhao Yuzhu to come over with the three children to do this together.
The children were also very excited: they had never participated in these things before.
Erbao, who was making glutinous rice cakes beside him, was so happy that his eyes lit up: "Mom, it turns out that this is made while it's hot! I didn't know it before!"
Shen Qingyu felt sad and said with a smile: "If you want to do it in the future, you can do it at any time."
The woman who was making glutinous rice cakes next to her said, "I didn't have enough to eat before, so how could I be willing to make glutinous rice cakes?"
"That's right! I used to be reluctant to buy meat during the Chinese New Year, but this year every household is buying meat."
"Thanks to Qingyu! If it weren't for you, how could we be willing to do it?"
"That's right, your family has built a blue brick house with large tiles this year!"
"Oh, if you want to get a wife, you have to build a house before the Chinese New Year to ask for a wife to celebrate the Chinese New Year!"
Everyone immediately laughed: "Yes, yes, you can have a grandchild next year..."
There was laughter and laughter for a while, and there were sincere smiles on everyone’s faces.
When the glutinous rice cakes were ready, everyone started making rice crackers.
Put the original color glutinous rice on the bottom, cover the top with the red glutinous rice, put it in a bamboo hoop and flatten it, and a popcorn is ready.
After the work was finished, someone cooked glutinous rice liqueur and put in the freshly made glutinous rice cakes for Shen Qingyu and everyone who came to eat together...
When we were almost busy, it was already noon, and everyone dispersed one after another.
Shen Qingyu was going home, and Uncle Li Zheng insisted on bringing some pork and glutinous rice cake to Shen Qingyu.
Although Shen Qingyu does not lack these things, Shen Qingyu's heart is still warm with this heavy heart.
After returning home, Shen Qingyu discussed with Qi Yunxiao: "How about we kill pigs too and treat everyone in the village to a meal?"
Qi Yunxiao naturally had no objection: "I'll listen to you."
Zhao Yuzhu is supporting with both hands and feet!
"This is a good idea! According to me, we have made a lot of money this year, and everyone in the village has also made a lot of money. We are sure to have a good year. Many people have saved money to build houses and marry wives.
! Worth celebrating!"
Shen Qingyu made up his mind.
The pigs raised at the beginning of the year were basically raised by Xiao Taohua and Shen Dasong. Now that they are fattened, killing them for everyone to eat is also a good choice.
So Shen Qingyu asked the Dragon Guard to inform everyone to kill the pig.
Qi Yunxiao thought of the dragon guards in the back mountain.
The refugees were arranged by His Majesty Da Qi, but the dragon guards all followed orders to work.
Nowadays, the accommodation and food are incomparable to those in the capital, and even getting married and having children has been delayed.
Although His Majesty was only a temporary helper, fearing that Qi Yunxiao and Shen Qingyu would not be able to suppress the refugees, the refugees have now settled down...
It is impossible for these people to just feed themselves. They also need to start a family and start a business to support their families.
Qi Yunxiao thought of a way to raise troops in the fields. Can we change it...
"Buy a few more pigs and kill them for meat with the dragon guards in the back mountain!" Qi Yunxiao asked the dragon guards to purchase pigs without saying anything.
When the dragon guards heard that the pigs were going to be killed, they were very happy: they had been managing these refugees for several months, how could they still look like the emperor's close ministers?
Many Dragon Guards also saw the situation clearly in private: Your Majesty felt that there were too many Dragon Guards at the beginning, so he just released half of them and asked Qi Yunxiao to feed them!
But the dragon guards trained hard and learned how to kill people. If they don't do this, what else can they do?
These few months have been great. They have learned everything about personnel management, various farm work, and dealing with all kinds of people.
Although I am tired, I seem to feel something is different.
In the blink of an eye, early the next morning, everyone gathered on the bluestone terrace in front of Shen Qingyu's house and started killing pigs.
The heartbreaking sound of the pig resounded throughout Shenjia Village, causing everyone to swallow their saliva silently.
However, Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao went to the back mountain.
Along the way, I met refugees who were going out to collect firewood. The refugees were wearing warm cotton clothes and said hello to Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao one after another, with expressions of gratitude on their faces.
The refugees in the back mountain have completely settled down, and they are starting to have winter.
This year they earned some money by growing peppers and beans, working in pepper workshops and soap workshops, and bought a lot of cheap food from Shen Qingyu.
Although I am still reluctant to eat whole grains, I am still full!
From time to time, I can buy some fatty pork and boil it in oil to give it a bit of meaty flavor.
After Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao greeted them, they summoned the dragon guards for a meeting.
The only topic at the meeting was: What do they plan to do in the future?!
Qi Yunxiao also gave several options.
They can choose to return to the capital, but Qi Yunxiao said it doesn't matter whether they can join the Dragon Guard again after they return. After all, they have to consider the new emperor's suspicion.
They can also choose to stay, or continue to protect and manage the refugees, or go to work as stewards in major workshops.
They can also choose to leave and do whatever they want.
Or, they can go to various Guiyun Towers to work as stewards...
After hearing these choices, one of the dragon guards couldn't help but ask: "Is there any other way out?"
Qi Yunxiao glanced at those people with bright eyes: "Also, I want to go to various countries and become spies."
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
This job is not in vain for all their hard work and training!
