Chapter 328 She is really shooting herself in the foot
Thinking of the promise he made to his uncle yesterday that he would cook for him himself today, Lin Xi rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Daya and others who were cooking.
While walking, I was thinking about what delicious food to make for everyone.
When I walked over to Daya, I found that she was stewing meat soup, and Xinghua Niang was leading the women to bake steamed bread slices.
Lin Xi looked at the guards who were still injured, thought for a moment, and decided to cook spirit fish for everyone to eat!
After the eldest brother comes back, they will set off. Let everyone eat some spiritual fish, which will speed up their recovery from injuries and strengthen the physical fitness of Xinghua and the other ten girls.
The next few days will be very difficult and it is very easy to encounter danger.
After thinking about it, Lin Xi smiled and said to Daya: "Sister Daya, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go out and see if I can catch some fish and make some fish soup for everyone to improve the food. I'll let everyone have a good meal before I leave!"
After saying that, she winked at Daya. Daya understood and smiled, telling her to go quickly.
Lin Xi quickly left the cave, reached the top of the cliff, and wandered in the woods. She couldn't go back so quickly, otherwise it would arouse suspicion.
As she walked, she moved the uncommon trees, flowers and plants in the forest into the boundary bead.
Just like that, half an hour passed quickly. Lin Xi took out a few spirit fish from the boundary bead, then pulled out some strong grass, weaved it into a thin rope, and carried a few cleaned spirit fish back to the cave in a swagger.
"Lin Xi, where did you catch so many big fish?"
Chen Dawei, who was taking a breath at the entrance of the cave, looked at the fish in Lin Xi's hand and asked in surprise.
As he spoke, he quickly walked up to Lin Xi and took half of the fish.
"Uncle Chen, I caught them near the waterfall in the mountains. I've packed them up. Let's go in and cook them. I can't wait!"
Seeing Lin Xi swallowing his saliva with a greedy look on his face, Chen Dawei laughed and strode into the cave.
When General Cao saw the spirit fish, his eyes lit up. With these spirit fish, the guards' injuries could be healed faster.
"Lin Xi girl, you are so generous. Thank you, uncle!"
General Cao put his arms around Lin Xi's shoulders like a brother and whispered in her ear.
"Uncle, the job of chopping the fish is left to you!"
Lin Xi stuffed the spirit fish into General Cao's arms and said with a smile.
General Cao didn't mind that the fish had soiled his clothes. He held a few fishes with a happy look on his face. He also called Chen Dawei and went to the stone slab beside him to chop the fish skillfully!
A quarter of an hour later, the scent of the spirit fish filled the cave, making everyone drool.
They suddenly felt that the steamed bread slices in their hands were tasteless!
They all stared at the big pot of stewed fish and the branches with grilled fish on them.
Yingxiang, who was lying in the innermost cave, smelled the rich fragrance wafting over and kept swallowing her saliva in greed.
She really wanted to go out and have dinner with everyone, but she just said that she felt dizzy and couldn't stand up. It was not a good time to go out and eat fish with everyone now. Xinghua would definitely bring some in for her later.
Yingxiang comforted herself in her heart, raised her head and stared at the cave outside, looking eagerly!
After another quarter of an hour, the spirit fish and chicken soup were cooked, and the grilled fish was also done.
Daya and Yuanyuan each held a large spoon, smiling and asking everyone to serve the fish and chicken, while Lin Xi distributed some of the grilled fish to everyone. Everyone held large bowls, squatted on the ground and ate with big mouthfuls, shouting incoherently that it smelled so good!
Yingxiang, who was in the cave, stretched her head and looked over here. She felt very upset when she saw that everyone was only concerned with their own food and no one even mentioned sending her food.
She kept cursing Xinghua in her heart!
Just now, Xinghua seemed to be very concerned about her, but now that there was delicious food, she actually forgot about her. It seemed that her concern for her was all false!
How hypocritical!
After persisting for a while, seeing that no one remembered her, Yingxiang couldn't hold back any longer. The fish was about to be eaten by them. No, she had to go out!
After thinking about it, Yingxiang got up, pretended to be weak, and staggered towards Lin Xi and the others.
The pot was still far away. Xinghua Niang and Pang Aunt, who had been secretly watching Yingxiang, saw Yingxiang coming out, and hurriedly put the bowl on the ground, pretending to be concerned, walked forward to her, supported her, and turned around to walk back!
Auntie Pang said enthusiastically as she walked over: "Hey, Yingxiang, why are you getting up when you are so weak? Are you hungry? Wait in bed, we will bring you food right away!"
Aunt Pang and Xinghua's mother carried Yingxiang back.
After letting Yingxiang sit against the wall of the cave, Xinghua's mother carefully pulled the quilt over her legs and winked at Aunt Pang.
"Yingxiang, wait a minute, I'll bring you food!"
Aunt Pang said to Yingxiang with a smile, then turned around and went outside to serve Yingxiang some food.
Xinghua's mother sat next to Yingxiang and talked to her in a casual manner.
After a while, Aunt Fat came back with a big bowl.
"Yingxiang, you must be starving, come and eat quickly. This is steamed buns soaked in chicken soup. In the past, ordinary people like us couldn't afford it! Fortunately, the benefactor took us in, so we should be grateful and content!"
After Aunt Pang finished speaking, she stuffed the big bowl and chopsticks into Yingxiang's hands, and urged her to eat quickly.
When Yingxiang saw what was in the bowl, she was immediately upset. There was not a single piece of chicken, let alone fish. There were only a few broken steamed buns soaking in the clear soup.
Her hands were shaking and she was about to knock over the bowl on purpose.
Unexpectedly, Xinghua Niang quickly held the bowl and said with a smile: "Yingxiang, you are too weak. You can't even hold the bowl steadily. Auntie will hold it for you. Just eat!"
Just as Yingxiang was about to ask for some fish and chicken, Auntie Pang spoke before she could say anything: "Yingxiang, don't worry. It's not that the aunties deliberately treat you differently and don't give you meat. It's because you are too weak. The benefactor said that you can't eat meat for the time being. Soak some steamed buns in the broth first, which is easier to digest. And you only need to eat half full now. When your body recovers, you can eat normally!"
Looking at Aunt Pang’s smiling eyes, Yingxiang felt a pang in her heart!
She really shot herself in the foot because she couldn't even eat her fill because of pretending to be sick!
Yingxiang had no choice but to swallow her anger, forced a smile, and said to Xinghua Niang and Aunt Pang with gratitude: "Thank you, aunts. I know you are doing this for my own good. You two aunts, please go and eat. I can eat by myself!"
After saying that, he took the big bowl from Xinghua Niang's hand and started eating with chopsticks.
She was really hungry. She was so busy trying to please the deputy general last night that she didn't even have time to eat dinner. The steamed buns soaked in meat soup were better than the food in the Jin army camp, but the quantity was really small!
