Chapter 362： Grilled mutton

Chapter 362 Grilled Mutton

“He also said that the reason why his father died early was because his mother neglected his father and allowed his father to contract Wu Shi San.”

Jiang Cheng was very angry when he thought of this: "I think Zhang Yukun is crazy. If he hadn't been wearing filial piety, I would have wanted to beat him up for my aunt."

Yingbao was thinking about another thing while eating the apple.

Since his uncle died, Zhang Xiaolang’s custody rights should completely belong to his aunt.

But what if the concubine uses this excuse to make trouble from time to time?

The brother and sister talked for a while, and Jiang Cheng asked Jiang Yingbao to look at the shop while he went to buy braised pork.

The tigers also followed, clamoring to eat the roasted mutton.

Jiang Wu originally wanted to go, but turned around and saw his sister sitting alone in the shop, so he turned back to sit with her.

Earlier, Master Zhou and his eldest apprentice and his second apprentice put down the cherry treasures and returned to the medical office, so there were only two siblings in the shop.

Ying Bao took out some vegetables from the cave and put them in a basket before talking to his brother.

"Xiao Wu, remember, you are not allowed to show off your strength in the future. If the master had not arrived in time with his troops this time, Hu Zi and many others would not have survived."

She and her brother might be able to escape, but Hu Zi could not escape anyway.

The book in my mind mentioned the fall of Jingzhou, saying that all the governor Zhang’s family and the people in the city were killed. The barbarians did not even spare the children, but only a few young and beautiful women were taken away by them, but the final outcome was also tragic. .

Jiang Wu scratched his head: "Well, I understand."

"When you get home, you must read for two hours every day and learn more about the strategies and tactics I gave you."

On the way back from Jingzhou, Yingbao bought a lot of books and finally found two books on the art of war.

In fact, really good books are collected by wealthy families and are reserved for their children and grandchildren, and they are reluctant to show them to others.

So it is not easy to buy good books in bookstores and bookstores.

However, there are a lot of story books in the bookstore, most of which are folk romance books, there are also martial arts novels, etc., and there are also stories about ghosts and ghosts.

She also bought a lot of these, choosing all the ones she had never seen before.

Of course, she would not show it to her brothers, lest she mislead them.

Jiang Wu nodded repeatedly. "I read it every day." He didn't like reading at first, but he loved reading books on military strategy. On the way back, he read them for a long time.

It was a pity that the book was too thin, so he read it quickly.

Not long after, Jiang Cheng and Huzi came back carrying several packages of braised vegetables.

He said to his little cousin: "I also asked the restaurant to prepare a table and we will bring it to you later."

Yingbao nodded, took the stewed vegetables from the cousin's hand, went to the kitchen to fetch several large bowls, and placed the chopped braised meats, chickens and geese in the bowls.

Jiang Wu and Huzi went to the backyard to bring the dining table and placed it at the door of the shop.

At this time, the sun is setting in the west, and there is shade in front of the shop with the door facing east. It is cool and bright to eat here.

Jiang Cheng went home again and brought his wife and children.

Qiu Rong held her eldest son Jiang Dali with one hand and covered her belly with the other, saying hello to Yingbao: "Yingbao has grown so tall."

Yingbao grinned at her and said, "Sister-in-law." Then she bent down and picked up her little nephew.

The little nephew was just two years old and chubby. He stared at her for a while with his big eyes. Under the guidance of his parents, he shouted in a sweet voice: "Little aunt."

Yingbao hugged him and turned around. He felt that it was really heavy, so he wanted to put him down. "You are so heavy, I can't even hold him."

Unexpectedly, Dali relied on his little aunt and refused to come down. A pair of fat arms tightly hugged her neck, and he tried to bend his legs.

When Jiang Cheng saw this, he picked up his son with a smile and patted his butt: "My little aunt is weak and can't hold you. Come, let's eat."

As soon as Dali heard about eating, he immediately turned his attention to the dinner table.

Not long after, the restaurant’s banquet arrived, with ten dishes and a bucket of freshly steamed rice.

The banquet includes fish and meat, as well as stir-fries and pastries, as well as a pot of rice wine.

Jiang Cheng poured a glass for his younger brothers and sisters, "This is rice wine. Try it. How is it different from what we brew at home?" Yingbao picked it up and took a sip, but didn't notice any difference.

Hu Zi and Jiang Wu took a sip while eating the meat. It was sweet and a little sour.

“It’s not as fragrant as our rice wine.” Huzi said. The Jiang family also makes rice wine, but they keep it for their own consumption and cannot sell it outside.

Because you must buy a liquor selling license from the Yamen to sell liquor. No matter how your business is, the annual tax can scare people to death.

Jiang Wu was not interested in rice wine and could not taste good or bad rice wine, so he did not express his opinion and just immersed himself in eating meat.

The person who has the same preferences as him is Jiang Dali.

I saw him picking up a chicken leg and chewing it until his face was covered with oil.

While eating, Jiang Yunniang came back, taking her daughter Hongxiao with her.

Upon seeing this, Yingbao quickly went to the kitchen to get two pairs of bowls and chopsticks to serve her aunt and Hongxiao with rice.

Jiang Yunniang's eyes were red. She sat down at the table and hesitated to move her chopsticks while holding the bowl.

Hongxiao was very hungry and started eating by herself.

Jiang Cheng picked up some food for his aunt: "Is there anyone from the Zhang family?"

Jiang Yunniang: "Zhang Jia and his eldest brother's family are here."

Hongxiao said while cooking rice: "They came and drove my mother away."

Jiang Cheng frowned: "Aunt, since the Zhang family is like this, you don't have to go to the funeral tomorrow."

Jiang Yunniang shed tears.

After dinner, someone from the restaurant came to clear away the dishes and went back, and the hostess also took her son home.

Jiang Cheng saw that it was getting late, so he went to the door to close the shop.

Ying Bao and Jiang Wu stood at the door and looked in the direction of the county school, and saw students coming out in twos and threes.

Finally, a short figure came out from inside and came straight towards this side.

“Jiang Jie!” Jiang Wu shouted and rushed towards him. The two hugged each other and laughed.

Jiang Jie carried a blue cloth schoolbag in one hand and put his arm around his younger brother's neck with the other. The two walked up to Ying Bao.

“Sister, you are back. My parents are very worried. If they had not been able to hire a boat, they would have gone to Jingzhou to find you and Jiang Wu.”

Ying Bao was speechless and took the blue cloth schoolbag from his hand, "Go and eat quickly, the food is warm in the pot."

“Yeah.” Jiang Jie and Jiang Wu ran to the kitchen.

Yingbao looked at the direction of the county school again and couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the students were leaving one after another and he didn't see Chen Changping either.

Jiang Cheng closed the door and went home. Yingbao walked into the yard and closed the door.

Xiao Hei wagged his tail and barked at her a few times, then used his front paws to pull the rice bowl in front of him twice.

Yingbao untied its rope and took it to the kitchen.

Jiang Jie was eating while listening to his younger brother and Huzi talking about things in Jingzhou. When he heard the danger, his eyes widened in surprise, and he even forgot to eat.

Huzi said proudly: "I hit several barbarians with my slingshot and beat them until they screamed. Jiang Wu also hit many of them. We cooperated perfectly and saved several soldiers."

"Really? Those people didn't come to beat you?" Jiang Jie asked.

"Why not?" Huzi said: "A group of barbarians rushed over with machetes, but Yingbao smashed them to death with a stone as big as a millstone..."

Jiang Jie's eyes opened even wider. Just when he was about to ask for a clear answer, he saw his sister taking out an apple and stuffing it into Huzi's mouth.

“Stop talking, let Jiang Jie eat quickly. Are you anxious if you don’t see Da Hei?”

Dahei was circling around the bottom of the table, looking eagerly at his little master, waiting for him to finish eating before feeding him.
