The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 282: BBQ under the Moon

"Little sister, is this barbecue ready to eat?"

Nangong Qing stared at the sizzling barbecue in Lin Xi's hands and couldn't help but swallow a big mouthful of saliva.

"Little sister, how about letting big brother help everyone taste whether the meat is cooked?"

Shangguan Yu approached Lin Xi with a big smile on his face, staring at the meat in Lin Xi's hand, his saliva about to flow. He hadn't eaten barbecue for two years since he was caught in the cave.

Ouyang Jing stretched out his hand to Lin Xi with a flattering look on his face, and said with a smile: "Little sister, I see you are too tired from grilling the meat, let the third brother grill it, you take a rest!"

Lin Xi looked at the three newly recognized brothers with amusement, shared the roasted skewers in his hand with them, and said with a smile: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, these skewers are roasted, you eat first, I will roast some more for you, don't worry, this little work won't tire me out, you have been in the cave for two years, what did they feed you? Did they give you meat?"

When Shangguan Yu and the other two heard Lin Xi say that the meat was ready, they didn't bother to be polite with her. They immediately took the skewers of meat she handed over and started eating them in big mouthfuls!

When he heard Lin Xi asking about their diet in the past two years, Shangguan Yu swallowed the barbecue in his mouth and said bitterly: "We haven't even seen meat in the past two years, let alone eating it. They just provide us with enough steamed buns and pickles, and sometimes when they are in a good mood, they just give us some leftover stir-fried vegetables!"

After saying that, he took a big bite of the skewer and chewed it vigorously, as if he wanted to chew up the people who had captured him.

At this time, Nangong Qing had finished eating a few skewers of meat and had satisfied his cravings. He was not in a hurry to eat anymore. He sighed and said, "Fortunately, my little sister rescued us. We finally don't have to be kept in that small cave like pigs anymore. If I had been locked up for a few more years, I would have gone crazy!"

"Big brother, second brother, wait until Jun Moxie finds out who sent these people to arrest us, then we will work together to arrest the person behind this and lock him up for life, so that he can enjoy this kind of life!"

After Ouyang Jing said this, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, when you go back, leave more guards around you. Once the master of these people knows that you have escaped, if his goal has not been achieved, he will definitely send people to catch you again. It is better to be careful!"

When Lin Xi heard Ouyang Jing mention the master of these men in black, he flipped the skewers of meat in his hand and gave the three of them serious instructions.

"Don't worry, little sister. We know how powerful we are and will never let ourselves fall into the hands of others again!"

Shangguan Yu narrowed his eyes and nodded in response.

"Hmph! When I get back, I'm going to find out who leaked my whereabouts and I'll make sure to get rid of all the spies around me. Don't worry, little sister. I have a plan in mind and I won't let anyone plot against me or capture me again!"

After Nangong Qing finished speaking, he exerted force with his hands, and the bamboo sticks in his hand instantly broke into several sections and fell to the ground.

"Brother, second brother, what I said reminded me that after we go back, it is better not to contact me before we have cleared all the spies around us, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to me!"

Ouyang Jing swallowed the last bite of meat, glanced at Shangguan Yu and Nangong Qing, clapped his hands and said.

Shangguan Yu and Nangong Qing looked at each other, then at Lin Xi, and felt that what Ouyang Jing said was very reasonable. Shangguan Yu apologized to Lin Xi and said, "Little sister, I wanted to have someone send you some good things after I go back, but it seems I have to postpone it for a while!"

Nangong Qing and Ouyang Jing also apologized to Lin Xi repeatedly, and promised to let Lin Xi choose more gifts from their treasure houses in the future.

Lin Xi looked at her three sworn brothers who were looking at her apologetically, and chuckled, "Three brothers, why do you say that I sound like I need you to give me gifts right away? I'm not that greedy, am I?"

"It's not that I'm greedy, it's that we want to give you some gifts as soon as possible so that we can repay you. Since we met tonight, it's always been me who's been helping us. We haven't done anything for you, and we feel bad!"

Nangong Qing said quickly, and Shangguan Yu and Ouyang Jing nodded in agreement.

"It doesn't matter. There are still many days ahead. When the time comes, you three brothers will help me. Just don't refuse!"

At this time, the skewers of meat in Lin Xi's hand were grilled again. She handed the skewers to the three people and teased them with a smile.

"Don't worry, little sister. We are very happy to be able to help you. How can we refuse?"

Shangguan Yu happily took the barbecue and spoke while eating.

"If you run into any trouble in the future, just go find me and I will definitely help you!"

Nangong Qing patted his chest and spoke loudly.

Ouyang Jing also looked at Lin Xi and said seriously: "Little sister, don't worry, you are our savior after all. Just based on this life-saving grace, we can't help you! You should also eat some meat, don't just focus on roasting it for us!"

Lin Xi smiled after hearing what the three said.

The four of them sat on the ground, chatting and laughing while eating meat under the bright moonlight, feeling very comfortable.

After Lin Xi and the others talked for a while, they saw Shopkeeper Zhou and a group of people approaching them quickly in the distance.

She clapped her hands, stood up, put out the fire, packed up everything else and put it in the backpack, said something to Shangguan Yu and the other two, then slipped into the woods nearby.

When she came out again, she had returned to her youthful appearance as when she first met Shangguan Yu and the other two.

This caused Shangguan Yu and the other two to praise her disguise skills again and again, and they said that when they had the chance, they would definitely let Lin Xi teach them the method of disguise.

Lin Xi agreed with a smile.

After chatting and laughing for a while, the four of them stood at the edge of the cliff together, waiting for Manager Zhou and others to come.

"Brother Lin, three princes, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!"

Shopkeeper Zhou came up to Lin Xi and the other three, greeted them with a smile, and then arranged for the people he brought with him to go to the cave below to take away those people in black.

He didn't know that Lin Xi's identity had been exposed because of his habitual address, and he still called Lin Xi "Brother Lin" as before.

After seeing that everyone brought by Shopkeeper Zhou had entered the cave, Shangguan Yu looked at Shopkeeper Zhou and said with a smile: "Haha! Shopkeeper Zhou, you don't have to help my little sister hide her identity anymore. We all know that she is a girl!"

"Little sister?"

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhou widened his eyes in surprise and looked at the three smiling princes, then looked at Lin Xi who shrugged at him.

I wondered: What happened during the time he was away? Why did Prince Shangguan call Lin Xi "little sister"?

Seeing Shopkeeper Zhou's puzzled look, Nangong Qing patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhou, the three of us have recognized Lin Xi as her adopted sister. From now on, she will have three more brothers to protect her!"

Shopkeeper Zhou looked at Lin Xi with admiration. Lin Xi now had a strong backer. As far as he knew, these three princes were all highly regarded by the emperors of the Three Kingdoms.
