Chapter 67: The No. [-] Scholar is blessed The original owner Jiang Zhaodi twitched the corner of his mouth towards Ji Caiyan.
Didn't laugh.
It only adds to the sadness.
She silently took the bowl from Ji Caiyan's hand, neither talking to Ji Caiyan nor looking at her sister.
Her body will eventually be taken over by the host Jiang Zhaodi.
If his sister trusts him again, it will be easy for her to be harmed by his host Jiang Zhaodi.
It's better not to give hope.
Thinking of this, the original owner Jiang Zhaodi felt a little regretful.
He shouldn't have given Ji Caiyan a drink just now.
What if she lets her guard down? Ji Caiyan would be as miserable as himself, having his body taken away from him.
Thinking of this, the original owner Jiang Zhaodi walked faster, away from home and Ji Caiyan.
I was silently catching locusts in a corner.
The locusts they caught were killed directly and secretly thrown into their own sacks.
Don't let your family see it.
Because the system can control her behavior and speech, she cannot express her grievances to anyone.
She tried to commit suicide by jumping into the bonfire, but at the critical moment, her body stiffened and she involuntarily moved away from danger.
It's all the fault of that devil called the system.
The original owner, Jiang Zhaodi, saw that the number of locusts was decreasing and people were beginning to have time to spare, so she ran home without looking back.
She tried hard to imitate the behavior of her host Jiang Zhaodi, whom her family hated.
At this time, it's time to go back to sleep and wait to be called up to eat.
As long as her family doesn't have a good impression of her body, she is willing to do it.
"What are you thinking about?"
Song Wenqing saw Ji Caiyan looking at Jiang Zhaodi's back with a touch of pity in his eyes.
Can't help but ask.
The prophecy has come true, Jiang Zhaodi cannot be kept.
But it can't be killed.
The words left by the old man Tianji came true one by one.
Song Wenqing became increasingly uneasy.
"It's nothing, I just feel that sometimes, people are powerless."
Ji Caiyan could imagine the helplessness of the original owner Jiang Zhaodi.
Judging from her behavior and the previous evaluations of her by people in the village, the original owner Jiang Zhaodi was a kind person.
Song Wenqing paused and said nothing.
But his eyes kept falling on Ji Caiyan.
Yes, there are times when there is nothing you can do.
Another hour passed.
The bonfire gradually died out.
The crackling sounds were only sporadic.
The buzzing sound can no longer be heard.
The villagers were not happy about defeating the locusts. They all looked at the crops in the fields with sad faces.
The crops were saved and not eaten by locusts.
But it was also bitten a lot.
Production must be reduced.
It is impossible to think of a prosperous year.
Fortunately, he won't starve to death.
"Thanks to you and your family this time."
Li Zheng walked up to Ji Caiyan without knowing why and looked at Ji Caiyan with gratitude.
If Ji Shuchen hadn't notified everyone in advance and reminded everyone that a lot of firewood had been cut, there might not have been a single straw left in the crops in the field.
"This is all the result of everyone's own efforts."
Ji Caiyan picked up a lot of locusts from the ground and wrapped them in the cloth he brought.
Li Zheng still had a lot of things to do, so he stuffed a white flour cake into Ji Caiyan's hand and left in a hurry.
The white flour cake was made for him by his wife, but he was reluctant to eat it.
The locusts in the fields are basically gone. Only a few people are left to set up a few bonfires to attract locusts. There won't be much of a problem.
There are still many locusts in the village, and he still has to lead everyone to continue catching them.
Ji Caiyan and Song Wenqing walked to a high place and took a look around to make sure there were no locusts covering the sky or the sun.
Then he walked towards the village.
Fat Hu and Xiao Zhu Zhu were not on Ji Caiyan's shoulders.
One of them is on the east side of the village, and the other is on the west side of the village. They deter the locusts in the village from flying around.
Reduce losses in crop fields outside the village.
Ji Caiyan and Song Wenqing stepped on the locusts on the ground and entered the house.
The sun was already setting in the west. Ji Caiyan didn't even eat lunch, and her stomach casually stuffed the white flour cake given to her by Li Zheng into her mouth, and the fragrance of wheat filled the air.
It also has a unique sour smell.
I made the cake myself, so it doesn’t taste well fermented.
"Dad, what are you eating today?"
Ji Caiyan saw Ji Shuchen busy in the open-air kitchen at a glance.
Ji Shuchen turned around and saw Ji Caiyan and Song Wenqing walking together.
Their hands almost touched each other.
Song Wenqing's eyes were as if they were blind. He kept looking at his daughter, his gaze fixed and unable to turn around.
Either blind or blind.
"Hey, the No. [-] Scholar is in great luck today!"
"Everyone will eat locusts today!"
Ji Shuchen rolled up his sleeves and stirred the barrel twice with his big, knuckled hands.
A lot of locusts were fished out.
Scoop out half a spoonful of lard from the jar and heat the oil in the pot.
Zizi——
The locusts were drained by Ji Shuchen and thrown directly into the iron pot.
The smell of protein mixed with lard permeated the entire yard.
Ji Caiyan smelled it, and it smelled like cicada after being stir-fried. It was a bit fragrant.
"Tsk, look, all the juice in my stomach is coming out. I don't know where I ate the grass!"
"Yo yo yo, these short legs are quite active in the oil pan, kicking around!"
Ji Shuchen's white robe was stained with the yellow-green juice of locusts.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a wing attached to his head~ Ji Caiyan:...
She does not object to everyone eating locusts to fill their stomachs.
However, this locust was described by her father as really... having no appetite.
"Sir, ordinary people probably don't know how to fry locusts in lard."
Song Wenqing bowed and spoke respectfully.
"Well, the Number One Scholar is right."
"I'll make a stewed locust soup for you and Xiaoyan later. You can taste it carefully."
Ji Shuchen nodded seriously, and then he really caught some locusts in the barrel and put them into the soup pot.
Before putting it in, he deliberately crushed the locust with his hand.
Yellow and green juice flowed out and dripped into the casserole.
The locust with missing arms and legs was specially displayed by Ji Shuchen.
Add water, enough for two people.
He and his wife don't drink.
The daughter and the number one scholar are cheap! "Mom! Daddy brought you the casserole to make soup and stewed grasshoppers!"
Ji Caiyan shouted at the top of her lungs.
By the way, he threw all the locusts he carried home into Ji Shuchen's arms.
The stench of locusts on Ji Shuchen's body became even stronger.
"Shu Chen? What are you doing?"
Bai Zhixuan's gentle voice came, accompanied by her gentle smile.
He smiled and looked at Ji Shuchen's stinking body and the legs of various locusts on his hands.
"Cough cough cough..."
"I am entertaining the children!"
"Zhixuan, please go back to the house first. It's too quiet here. Dinner will be served soon."
"I'll make your favorite noodle soup later."
Ji Shuchen immediately became serious, and looked at Ji Caiyan dotingly,
"Silly boy, look at how dirty you are. Wash yourself quickly. Daddy feels bad when he sees it!"
Ji Caiyan: ...Huh.
I got goosebumps all over my body.
He rolled his eyes at his father and entered the house with his beautiful mother.
Song Wenqing didn't know when he sat at the stove and cooked a pot for Ji Shuchen.
The whistle sounded.
Ji Shuchen and Song Wenqing looked up at the same time.
"Shang Li appears!"
Ji Shuchen was frying Locust's hand.
Ask for a five star rating.
