Chapter 318 Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms
Chapter 318 Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms
"Don't be polite to us, aunties and grandmas. We still have quilts over there. They are enough to cover you. You won't be cold, don't worry! You can put blankets underneath. In this weather, it's impossible to cover yourself with only blankets. You will catch a cold!"
Lin An looked at everyone and said with a smile.
The kids standing with Lin An also spoke up, telling them not to be polite and just accept the quilts.
Seeing this, the women thanked Lin An and the others repeatedly with gratitude on their faces.
At this time, General Cao's guards each came over carrying a large pile of hay, and Lin An led his team members to help spread the hay.
After it was laid out, he lay down on it to try it out. Well, it was quite comfortable, not cold at all, so he nodded with satisfaction.
Lin An got up and said to the women with a smile: "Aunt, grandma, sisters, please lie down and rest for a while. I will call you when the meal is ready!"
"Don't bother me, young master. We'll be there in a moment. Thank you, warriors!"
Grandma Xinghua was hunched over with a smile on her face, and the wrinkles on her poor face seemed to have smoothed out a lot.
"Thank you, young masters, and thank you, warriors!"
The women behind Grandma Goudan knelt down towards Lin An and the others with gratitude on their faces!
When they followed their benefactor here, they were a little uneasy, fearing that his companions would dislike them, so they stayed quietly in the innermost part of the cave and did not dare to go out to disturb them.
Unexpectedly, not only did they not look down on them, they also enthusiastically found hay for them and brought them their own quilts.
They didn't mind that they were dirty!
Xinghua's eyes were filled with tears, and she tried hard to tilt her head back to prevent the tears from flowing down.
From the moment she decided to keep this worthless life, she had prepared herself mentally to face people's strange looks and disgusted gazes. She wanted to have a heart as hard as iron, devote herself to learning martial arts, and slaughter the Jin soldiers!
When she saw Lin An and others were so respectful and caring towards them, her hard-hearted heart suddenly broke. Perhaps after taking revenge, she could still have a normal life!
There was a glimmer of light in her eyes!
The guards were all grown men, and it was not easy for them to lend a hand to the women kneeling in front of them. They just said "You're welcome!" and hurriedly left with Lin An and the other kids!
"Let's lie down and rest for a while, and get well soon!"
With the help of Pang Ya, Grandma Pang Ya stood up and spoke to the group of women.
The girls quickly got up, spread blankets on the hay, and covered themselves with thick quilts. They had satisfied smiles on their faces and waved excitedly to the women who were helping each other to stand up.
"Mom, come quickly, it's so warm!"
"Grandma, this quilt is so soft, it's better than the one we have at home!"
"Auntie, come, let's cover ourselves with one quilt!"
Seeing the long-lost innocent smiles on the children's faces, the adults' faces couldn't help but relax.
They also lay down on the bed covered with thick hay, covered themselves with warm quilts, and breathed a sigh of relief in comfort.
At this moment, they no longer had to be frightened, no longer had to worry about being dragged out and bullied by the Jin soldiers. They felt completely safe in their hearts, and after completely relaxing, their eyelids became heavier and heavier!
After a short while, everyone fell into a deep sleep, leaning against each other.
When Lin Xi and Yuan Yuan came to call them for dinner, they were still sleeping and didn't hear anything.
"Sister Lin Xi, do you want to wake them up?"
Yuanyuan leaned close to Lin Xi's ear and asked in a very low voice, afraid to wake up Xinghua and the others.
Lin Xi made a gesture to Yuanyuan, and the two of them left the place in light steps.
"Let them sleep. We'll save the food for them so they can eat when they wake up!"
After walking for a distance, Lin Xi looked back and made sure that he would not disturb Xinghua and the others before he whispered to Yuanyuan.
"Okay, I'll go tell Sister Daya!"
After Yuanyuan finished speaking, she ran towards Daya who was distributing food to everyone.
General Cao was holding a big bowl and squatting beside a large iron pot, eating chicken in big mouthfuls. He quickly shoveled the meat into his mouth, looking at the chicken in the pot with shining eyes!
When Yuanyuan ran over to talk to Daya, General Cao caught a glimpse of Lin Xi out of the corner of his eye. He quickly asked Daya to serve him another big bowl of chicken, and strode towards Lin Xi with two big bowls in his hands!
"Lin Xi girl, this chicken stewed with mushrooms is so delicious! Come and try it!"
Lin Xi took the large bowl handed to him by his uncle, took a sip of the chicken soup, and squinted his eyes happily.
It was so delicious! She had eaten pheasant many times since she came to this era, but she still couldn't get enough of it. The aroma of chicken mixed with the freshness of mushrooms was really delicious. She drank a mouthful of chicken soup and felt comfortable all over!
General Cao saw Lin Xi take a sip of the chicken soup and then squinted his eyes to taste it. He picked up a piece of delicious mushroom and put it in his mouth, chewing it with big mouthfuls. At the same time, he nudged Lin Xi with his elbow and said to her with a smile: "Hey! Lin Xi girl, uncle wants to discuss something with you!"
"Uncle, what's the matter?"
"Can you be responsible for the meals while you stay here?"
Seeing his uncle looking at him expectantly, and then looking at the guards who were wolfing down the chicken stewed with mushrooms, Lin Xi readily agreed: "Uncle, that's no problem. I'll cook something delicious for everyone tomorrow!"
Her uncles and his men fought bravely on the battlefield to protect ordinary people like them. Cooking for them for a while was nothing, and she was extremely happy about it!
"Haha! That's great! Uncle is in for a treat!"
General Cao patted Lin Xi's shoulder happily and laughed. At this time, Lin Xi had just stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth, and was choked by General Cao's pat. He bent over and coughed uncomfortably!
"Lin Xi girl, are you okay?"
Seeing that Lin Xi looked very uncomfortable, General Cao patted her back in a panic and looked at her with a worried look!
The noise from Lin Xi's side was so loud that it alarmed his friends and guards who were eating and chatting.
They surrounded us immediately!
When Lin Kang saw that his sister was choking, he quickly pushed aside the people blocking him, came behind Lin Xi, and imitated how Lin Xi helped him last time. He put his hand on Lin Xi's stomach and helped her get out the chicken nugget that was blocking her airway.
