Chapter 39 Mother is getting more and more selfish!
As the commander-in-chief, Chu Lixuan naturally knew that the weather was abnormal.
However, his little wife has space and can farm, so no natural disaster can harm them.
If his mother and little sister didn't howl, he would be in a better mood.
The officers escorted the exiled prisoners, cursing and hurrying in the scorching sun.
After a day of traveling, the group of them finally arrived at the next station in the capital.
The county lieutenant of Shangni County and other officials came out to greet and count the number of prisoners and go through the handover procedures.
No matter how many people they take in, they let them go. If there are fewer people, the county captain will be responsible.
The officials were arranged by the county captain to go to the county government office to take a bath, drink and eat.
The criminals were all locked up in the stables, and Chu Xiong and his son did not receive special treatment.
Uncle Chu and his son had no choice but to spend their own money and bribe officials to arrange accommodation for them.
At the beginning, it was the eldest prince who promised him that he would treat them preferentially along the way.
Chu Xiong was puzzled and resentful, and secretly blamed the eldest prince for not being trustworthy.
However, there was nothing he could do. Fortunately, he had a lot of money, otherwise it would have been a disaster!
Uncle Chu Hua Yinzi took his son and concubine and moved into a room prepared by the county government.
The conditions are naturally not good, not to mention having a beautiful woman waiting for him!
Compared to living in a stable, Uncle Chu and the others are still much better.
As usual, Chu Lixuan gave Chu Lijie and Chu Lizheng one tael of silver each and asked them to go to the county government official to buy food.
This time, the charges are still much higher than those on the street.
However, the county government officials treated all criminals equally and were more generous than the officials who escorted them.
This made Chu Lijie very happy. He and Chu Lizheng each bought ten meat buns.
As an exception, I gave them a bucket of water for them to drink, so that they could wash their hands if they saved a little.
There’s no need to wash your face, and you don’t even have to think about taking a shower!
I was sweating profusely along the way and my whole body was smelly, but there was nothing I could do.
It would be nice to have water to drink!
The people in the second house are responsible for their own food, so these twenty meat buns are enough for each person in their first house to eat.
Chu Lixuan and Jiang Xinyan still don't want meat buns, so the other nine people in the big room can share two meat buns, and there will be one left.
Two aunts, Chu Lizheng and Chu Jiao, Chu Nuo and Chu Ye, the eldest princess's grandmother and Jin Niang, and Chu Lijie.
"Xuan'er, you and Yan'er share one meal each!"
After the eldest princess and her grandmother divided the pieces, there was only one left, so she said to Chu Lixuan.
"Grandma, let's share it with Zheng'er and Jie'er! As a couple, we can just eat the steamed buns. I'll heat them with my internal strength. They taste pretty good."
This is the first time Chu Lixuan has lied, so don’t make a rough draft!
Jin Niang said: "Mom, give me the extra one you have! I'm really hungry."
The eldest princess and her grandmother took a deep look at the eldest daughter-in-law and gave the extra buns to Jin Niang without saying a word.
This time there was water and an extra meat bun. The people in the big house once again ate the steamed buns heated by Chu Lixuan's internal power.
They were all full, but Chu Ye was becoming more and more dissatisfied with her mother!
She felt that the meat bun that was too much should be given to her.
Chu Ye pouted and said, "Mom, why are you so selfish? That meat bun should be eaten by my eldest brother, who is still injured!"
Jinniang blushed and didn't know how to express her guilt.
She was really hungry and couldn't bear it! She didn't even remember that her eldest son was injured just now!
