Cannon fodder Gong Just Wants To Take The Imperial Examination [MTL]

Chapter 9

 Mu Linting "stared" at the door for a long time, but he couldn't say anything nice. He has this kind of temper, no matter how moved he is, he won't say nice words, he will only use his own actions to express his feelings.

To be honest, it is easy for people like Mu Linting to suffer, and it is difficult to have good friends.

He is the kind of person who pays silently without leaving his name, and the fruits of his labor are easily claimed by others. If a person like him was placed in Shen Chenyu's era, he would not only suffer a lot, but also be easily squeezed out, and even be bullied by some slick and sophisticated people.

...

Yang Jiashuan brought some miscellaneous grains when he came. Aunt Yang knew that Mu Linting's family was very poor, even though they didn't have much food in their house now, she asked Yang Jiashuan to bring them some when they came.

Shen Chenyu is not willing to accept their food at all, not only because their family does not lack food at all, but also because the food is a life-saving thing.

Even if Shen Chenyu accepted these miscellaneous grains, his family would not really know how to eat them. But if Aunt Yang kept these miscellaneous grains, Aunt Yang and the others would be able to live better.

However, Yang Jiashuan's child is stubborn, no matter how Shen Chenyu refuses, he is unwilling to take him back. Shen Chenyu had no choice but to accept it first, and then put some red dates and two winter bamboo shoots in Yang Jiashuan's bag.

Shen Chenyu hadn't dug up many winter bamboo shoots, so he wasn't willing to give Yang's bamboo shoots too much. And even if he gave more, with Yang Jiashuan's simple and stubborn character, he wouldn't want it. Fortunately, Yang Jiashuan didn't refuse those red dates, and also accepted the two very rare winter bamboo shoots.

Yang Jiashuan had never met Shen Chenyu before, because his mother said that Shen Chenyu was not good to Mu Linting, so he preconceived that Shen Chenyu was not good.

Now after seeing Shen Chenyu, Yang Jiashuan suddenly felt that maybe his mother had misjudged her. Because Shen Chenyu gave him a good feeling, not only is he good-looking but also has a good temper, and Shen Chenyu is also very generous.

Although Yang Jiashuan had never seen any good things, the red dates that Shen Chenyu gave were good things at first glance. Originally, with Yang Jiashuan's honest personality, he shouldn't have accepted such an expensive red date. But he thought of his mother's always pale face, and he knew that red dates are very nourishing for women, so he accepted Shen Chenyu's red dates with anxiety.

Just as Yang Jiashuan thought, after he returned home with red dates and winter bamboo shoots. When Aunt Yang saw that he had collected such a good thing, her first reaction was to slap him on the back twice.

"It's such a good and precious thing, it would be great to keep it for Mu Linting and Naiwazi to make up for their health. Why are you so ignorant?"

Yang Jiashuan's dark face was burning hot, and he hesitated for a long time before saying: "I...I just want my mother to restore her body, I just...just feel sorry for my mother..."

Aunt Yang paused when she heard the beating, her round eyes immediately filled with tears. Everyone said that she was a widow who dragged her child to death, but only she knew how wonderful her two children were. With such two good children who are sensible and love their mother, Aunt Yang doesn't feel bitter at all. She is happier than anyone in the village.

"You... you silly boy, it's alright, alright, at worst, mother will go up to the mountain to see them more, after all, it won't really make them suffer."

Aunt Yang wiped away her tears as she said this, and then took those red dates He and Dongsun went into the kitchen, completely gone with the fierce look on his face just now.

...

Shen Chenyu on the other side, after sending Yang Jiashuan away, squatted in the yard and began to process the winter bamboo shoots. He tried his best to search for some useful information about cooking in his mind, but he didn't know how to cook winter bamboo shoots to taste.

Just when Shen Chenyu was struggling, Mu Linting walked out of the room leaning on a wooden stick. This wooden stick was prepared for him by Shen Chenyu. Although Mu Linting is familiar with the surroundings of this house, it is more reliable to have a wooden stick in his hand.

Although Shen Chenyu has been working hard to be a relatively qualified chef these days, Mu Linting still discovered his real cooking skills. Because no matter how good and precious those ingredients are, the taste will be greatly reduced in Shen Chenyu's hands.

What Shen Chenyu can afford now is oatmeal red date porridge and tomato scrambled eggs. In Mu Linting's view, other dishes made by Shen Chenyu are a waste of precious ingredients.

Mu Linting heard the conversation between Shen Chenyu and Yang Jiashuan, and only then did he know that Shen Chenyu went out to dig winter bamboo shoots today. Thinking of Shen Chenyu's poor cooking skills, Mu Linting couldn't help but walked out of the room.

Relying on his keen sense of hearing, he walked slowly in front of Shen Chenyu. Shen Chenyu glanced at him when she heard the footsteps, and asked with a puzzled face: "Why did you come out?"

Then Shen Chenyu heard Mu Linting say: "You know how to make bamboo shoots?" I

don't know if it was Shen Chenyu's. Illusion, although Mu Linting did use a questioning tone, but he just heard the rhetorical question.

The expression on Shen Chenyu's face was a bit unstoppable, he said dryly to Mu Linting: "I can't, can you?"

Mu Linting is blind and injured, where did he get the confidence to mock him? Before Shen Chenyu felt aggrieved in her heart, she heard Mu Linting say in a flat tone: "Yes, I will."

Shen Chenyu paused when she heard the words, and then stuffed the bamboo shoots into Mu Linting's arms , he would like to see how a blind man cooks.

And then Young Master Shen couldn't escape Zhenxiang, he quickly picked up the bowl of stewed winter bamboo shoots in oil, while making complaints about it in his heart.

Except that he picked the bamboo shoots and washed them, Mu Linting did the rest by himself. Although Mu Linting asked Shen Chenyu to help him a little while getting the oil and salt, but this dish was indeed made by Mu Linting alone.

Mu Linting's cooking skills are very good, and Shen Chenyu's knife skills are even more dumbfounded. If it wasn't for him being worthy that Mu Linting was indeed blind, just looking at his ability to chop vegetables, he would have thought Mu Linting was pretending to be blind.

Mu Linting made this winter bamboo shoots delicious and tender, because Shen Chenyu asked him to put in the oil made from fat pork, the rich aroma would make the beasts in the mountains cry.

Although Mu Linting's cooking skills are very good, but because of his hard life in the past, he doesn't know too many complicated dishes at all. If Shen Chenyu wants to eat other dishes in the future, it is estimated that he will have to direct Mu Linting while talking, because Mu Linting has eaten too few good things.

After adding a chef to the family, Shen Chenyu suddenly felt that these days were not so bitter. Especially after Shen Chenyu taught Mu Linting a lot of dishes, the two adults were visibly fatter than before.

In the past few days, Yang Jiashuan came here again. Shen Chenyu recalled the plot in the novel, it is said that not long after the snow disaster, Liangzhou Mansion suddenly became chaotic. Many bandits took advantage of the chaos to burn, kill and loot, and it is not known whether it will spread to their small village.

Originally, Shen Chenyu thought that their village was so small and so poor, and they were now sealed in the village by heavy snow, and those mountain bandits would not take the risk to come over by then.

But many things have a contingency, so when Shen Chenyu saw Yang Jiashuan, she couldn't help but remind Yang Jiashuan a few words.

"This snowstorm came suddenly. The roads in many places were blocked by heavy snow, and many animals on the mountain froze to death. Some bandits who occupy the mountain as kings are hungry and red-eyed. Maybe they will take advantage of the heavy snow to block roads. Opportunity to cause trouble. I read similar things in a miscellaneous book before, and I was worried that bandits would come to our village. When you go down the mountain this time, tell the village chief about it. Regardless of whether I think too much myself, it's still good for us to take more precautions."

Yang Jiashuan didn't understand these things, but he thought that Shen Chenyu was a scholar, and scholars always knew more than them, so when he went back, he put It's over.

Because this matter is Shen Chenyu's guess, and their village is really poor. Although many people in the village listened to it, few people really took it seriously.

Although Shen Chenyu wanted to remind them, he couldn't guarantee that there must be bandits. He had never met the people in the village, and it was kind of him to take the risk of reminding them a few words. As for whether the bandits will come or not, and whether they will listen, he can only listen to fate for the rest.

...

this day, after a big dinner.

Shen Chenyu pinched her little belly, and then secretly glanced at Mu Linting's belly next to her. I heard that Mu Linting was injured on his stomach, and later he was pregnant with a cub against humanity, but even so his stomach was still very flat. When he changed Mu Linting's dressing before, he could vaguely see his undisappeared abdominal muscles, which looked much better than his slightly fleshy belly anyway.

It is said that there is no harm without comparison, and Shen Chenyu, who was inexplicably hurt, suddenly sat up, planning to go out to relax and exercise.

Just when Shen Chenyu got up and walked outside, there was a particularly shrill scream from outside. Such a sound is very strange in this kind of mountain, and the screams have been lingering in the mountain for a long time, and the echo has not dissipated for a long time.

The cub, who was sleeping soundly in the crib, suddenly opened his eyes wide because of the sound, and then he wanted to cry out. Shen Chenyu gave him a baby toy, and the little guy's attention was quickly diverted by the toy.

Seeing Mu Linting walking towards the door, Shen Chenyu immediately put the crib and the little meat bag into the space. Something must have happened to such a screaming sound, just in case he should hide the child first, lest something really happen later and he would have to be distracted to take care of the kid.

After Shen Chenyu settled the little boy, he picked up his bow and arrow and followed Mu Linting out of the room. Then, in the snow not far away, there were two blurred figures running towards them in a hurry.
