Chapter 65 Something happened! Something happened!

Xiangying turned around and felt that Jie Chen was a little different today.

Never seen him wearing new clothes.

Although today's outfit is also black, the fabric is obviously newer than before.

He walked next to Xiangying and felt the fresh scent of soap locust coming from his body.

Jie Chen's tone was cold: "Who told you to run around? If you don't stay up there, what are you doing down here?"

Xiangying came to her senses and picked up the fishing net in her hand: "If you don't want this, just give it to me."

The thin monkey reminded: "Take it away, but how can you use it?"

"Never heard of it. It takes three years to mend things." After that, Xiangying left with the fishing net.

Jie Chen stared at her back.

Didn't she notice that he was clean?

The thin monkey rubbed his hands and smiled: "Supervisor, do you have any other instructions when you come down?"

Jie Chen said with a cold face: "Hurry up and clean up, don't let me rush you again."

He left again.

Thin Monkey felt that it was getting harder and harder to guess Jie Jianjun's thoughts now.

There were several large wooden boxes at the bottom of the cabin, which gave off a rotten smell over time.

The skinny monkey was too lazy to make room, so he simply waved his hand: "Bring those prisoners down and let them sleep here."

After a while, more than 20 prisoners were brought down.

Skinny Monkey asked people to seal the windows, but he was not afraid of them escaping along the river.

At this moment, Scarface led Concubine Liu over.

"Skinny Monkey, can you squeeze in one more person?"

The thin monkey turned his head and saw Liu Taibin standing behind Scarface, holding on to his sleeve with a cautious look.

"Yes," Skinny Monkey joked with a smile, "Master Scar, are you willing to lock your mother here?"

Scarface's face darkened: "Fuck you, it's just for others to tease you like this. If you say the same thing, be careful I'll cut you!"

"This old lady is annoying enough. She follows her wherever she goes. Even when I went to bed last night, she was standing by the bedside."

"I'm going on patrol now. I'm going to take her with me to avoid being scolded by the supervisor, so I'll lock her here with you first."

With that said, he pushed Liu Taibi into the bottom compartment.

Liu Taibin got up uneasily: "Doudou'er, don't leave."

Her skinny hands tightly grasped Scarface's arm.

Scarface didn't want to push her any further.

So he tried his best to lie to her patiently: "You wait here, I will go find something to eat and I will be back in a while."

Liu Taibin's eyes were full of uneasiness: "Are you really going to come back?"

"Of course, didn't I stay with you yesterday?"

After receiving his promise, Liu Taibin slowly let go of her hand.

"There is water outside, you have to be careful." Her weathered face had deep wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

When he is not sick, his tone of voice is very calm and he does not sound like a mentally disturbed person.

Scarface waved his hand perfunctorily, and quickly closed the door of the cabin, letting Skinny Monkey lock it with a chain from the outside.

After getting rid of Mrs. Liu, he felt relieved.

The thin monkey asked: "You really don't care?"

"It's none of my business in the first place, so why should I care about her? It's all benevolence and justice!" Their voices gradually faded away.

After they left, Liu Taibin originally sat down by the door so that she could see her immediately when she came back.

But suddenly there was a squeaking sound in the cabin.

Several huge, black rats emerged from the cracks in the box.

The prisoners were so frightened that they screamed.

These people used to be nobles of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and they felt even more dirty when they saw rats.

A group of people stomped and stepped on it with their feet, and someone didn't know who screamed.

It felt like being bitten by a mouse.

But no one took it seriously.

Liu Taibin huddled at the door, holding her head tightly in fear.

"Doudou'er, Doudou'er, come back soon." She muttered.

At the same time, Xiangying stood at the bow of the boat, pretending to be netting.

After a while, she pulled the fishing net up. It was full of clams and river shrimps that she had put in.

"Yuan Xiao, get the basin quickly!"

Xiangying came into the house holding half a basin full of lively river shrimps, and Taoxue and the others were stunned. "Princess, are these all caught from the river?"

"Of course, there were a few small fry originally, but I let them go. These are enough for us to eat. Don't be greedy. This will make the river god happy and give us fish every day."

As soon as the three little ones heard this, Xiang Xiuxiu immediately clasped her hands together, ran to the door, bent down with her little body, and bowed.

"Thank you, Grandpa River God, for blessing us with plenty of fish and shrimps every day." Her milky voice made Xiangying laugh.

Xiang Yuanlang tugged on her skirt: "You might as well beg me."

Xiang Xiuxiu turned around and waved her little hand: "I don't want it, I listen to my mother."

Xiangying asked Qi Fengyi and Tao Xue to clean the clams.

When these clams were taken out of the space, Xiangying soaked them in salt water and spit out a lot of sand.

Simply wash it twice and it's ready to eat.

Then Xiangying took up the pot and put a small piece of lard in it.

Put the green onions and stir-fry, and add the washed river shrimps.

A sizzling sound came along with the fragrant smell.

"It smells so good!" Xiang Yuanxiao and his brothers and sisters squatted beside the small pot, their eyes wide open.

Xiangying first made a plate of stir-fried river shrimp and asked Taoxue and the others to share it with their children.

He also divided out two portions and prepared to send them to Xiangli.

After that, Xiangying cooked clam soup in a pot, and the milky white soup bubbled gurglingly.

The children each held a bowl and drank while watching Xiangying put the kneaded dough.

The soup only contains salt and pepper, not to mention how delicious it is.

Even if it is summer, the children are sweating profusely from eating, but they are all very happy.

Xiangying's house is like a mobile stall.

The seventh princess and concubine Yu both came and asked for a bowl of clam noodle soup.

Lin Lingxiang took another half of the pot and went to share it with Xiangli and Mr. Lin.

Xiangying was not stingy either. When everyone was full, he made another pot of stew.

She and Qi Fengyi carried it to the cabin where the soldiers were dining.

At this moment, everyone is eating steamed buns and pickles.

Suddenly smelling the fragrance, they all raised their heads.

Fang Qian is also among them.

Xiangying poured a pot of clam soup into their pot.

The steward said to the dumbfounded cook: "The fishing net was given by Captain Shouhou. I used this to catch a lot of clams."

"To thank him, treat this meal as my invitation."

After she finished speaking, the soldiers who were sitting there eating didn't dare to move.

Their eyes were all focused on Ke Jianjun, the most senior person here.

Xie Chen and the Guard Supervisor were not here, so they were all waiting for him to speak.

However, Ke Jianjun actually put down his chopsticks, gave Xiang Ying a cold look, and strode away.

Xiangying didn't care about him, just looked at everyone: "It's up to you whether you want to eat or not."

She hugged her pot and left.

Fang Gan took the lead and rushed forward: "Bring me a bowl."

He didn't know that the eldest princess could actually cook?

A bowl of delicious soup entered his mouth, and Fang Qian's dog eyes widened.

Fragrant, really fragrant!

Seeing that someone was testing the poison first, the others came forward to drink the soup with bowls in hand.

The soldiers who tasted the clam soup all felt that Xiangying's cooking was good.

For two days in a row, whenever Xiangying made fish soup or crab porridge, he would share a pot with the soldiers.

For no other reason than she was paving the way for herself.

Subduing the water bandits is to demonstrate ability, but winning people's hearts is equally important.

In order to occupy a dominant position in the exile team, Xiangying used all his patience.

The weather was unpredictable. Starting from the evening of that day, the gloomy sky started to thunder and lightning.

After a while, the heavy rain came as promised.

The dangerous river has undulating terrain and undercurrents.

Nowadays, during thunderstorms, the ship shakes even more violently.

Xiangying was sleeping with her children in her arms when she heard the rapid footsteps of soldiers coming from outside.

The voice of the spy soldier followed closely: "Go and tell the three supervisors that the second ship hit the reef and water started to enter the bottom of the cabin!"

I seem to have made progress recently, because I haven’t been caught with typos in several chapters in a row...I have to work hard...
