Chapter 487
After Ji Yunqing heard the whole story, he felt like he was struck by lightning.
It seems like she is a gift!
"How can this be?"
She couldn't accept this cruel and ruthless reality. Ji Yunqing kept asking, "You arrested me...are you really not sincere at all?"
Concubine Liu looked at the other person grabbing her hand, then looked at his pair of shining eyes full of expectation, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Actually, there is."
"That's good." After hearing this, Ji Yunqing sat back in his seat with a relaxed look, shaking his head proudly: "I knew I was actually pretty good!"
Concubine Liu looked at her and whispered, "Well, Yun Qing is very powerful."
The carriage swayed for an unknown amount of time before it finally stopped.
Ji Yunqing got off the carriage and looked at the dilapidated little farm in front of him and the gate covered with cobwebs.
He turned around and looked at Concubine Liu in disbelief and said, "Is this where we are staying now?"
Concubine Liu nodded: "Yes"
Ji Yunqing was silent for a while before she said hopefully, "Should we rest here for a while before going somewhere else?"
“…No, I live here.”
Hearing this answer, Ji Yunqing was shocked.
"You, you captured me just to make me suffer with you?"
She felt like a fool who was bewitched by a poor boy. She had to eat the same bran and vegetables with him, and there was not a drop of oil in the dishes...
"Ahem." Concubine Liu had never lived in such an environment before, but now she couldn't find a better one in such a hurry, so she whispered, "It will be better in the future."
Ji Yunqing: “…” This poor boy even resorted to making big promises.
Ji Yunqing burped, which was held back by the pancake. She took two steps back, managed to steady herself, and persuaded herself to accept reality.
She murmured to herself: "Let me make it clear first, I will not give birth to a child for you until the situation at home gets better!"
Concubine Liu looked puzzled: "...Hmm?"
Did she just hear something weird?
Ji Yunqing was completely immersed in the blow.
That night, she slept in this shabby little village and had this dream.
In the small thatched hut with bare walls and leaking wind and rain, she was holding a breastfeeding baby in her arms, and two dirty children were sleeping in a mess on the bed.
Concubine Liu stretched out her hand to ask her for money, saying that she had no money to buy rice this month. When she lowered her head, she saw that her belly was bulging, and there was actually a child in her belly!
What we are saying is, don’t have children if you don’t have money!
Ji Yunqing impatiently asked Concubine Liu to dig wild vegetables, but Concubine Liu said that she didn't like wild vegetables and wanted to drink good wine and eat good meat, so she asked her to borrow some money from her family.
She was immediately filled with question marks. Did Mr. Ji and Madam Ji seem so kind that they would help her?
The scene changed, and Ji Yunqing's family from her dream appeared.
King Zhao was wearing bright red and green clothes and had a bright red flower on his ear. He said with a sarcastic look on his face: A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. If you don't have money, you have to find a way to solve the problem yourself.
Then he ordered his daughter and son-in-law, who came to beg for money, to be beaten out.
Ji Yunqing, with her big belly, struggled to avoid the servants' sticks. Concubine Liu was afraid of suffering the slightest physical pain, so she cowered and hid behind her, using her to shield herself from being beaten.
After a stick was hit, Ji Yunqing was pulled by the person behind him and was suddenly awakened because he couldn't dodge in time.
"what!"
Ji Yunqing sat up, panting, and it took him a long time to recover.
She touched her flat belly in fear and whispered, "My Lord, if you don't come to save me, I will...I will get married!"
The next morning
Ji Yunqing felt the warm sunshine and completely put last night's nightmare behind him.
She turned left and right and found that everyone in the entire village was extremely busy today. It was not an easy task to clean up the place.
Seeing that the kitchen was short-staffed and overwhelmed, Ji Yunqing went out of his way to help out for a while.
After a few meals together and coupled with her time on the run, her relationship with the people in the kitchen improved dramatically.
Now Ji Yunqing squatted aside, rolled up his sleeves and rinsed the green peppers.
There is not much mud on it, and Ji Yunqing is not a professional in this field.
She looked around: "Chef Wang, why are you alone? Where's Chef Liu?"
Chef Wang sighed, "We were in a hurry yesterday and couldn't bring too many people, so Lao Liu couldn't come. Let's let him come in a couple of days when the situation is not as tense as before."
Today he has to chop a man in half.
In the past, he would never have been so bold as to ask customers for help, but today he was really too busy.
If we delay any longer, we will be late for lunch.
Ji Yunqing nodded in understanding, looked at the various vegetables in front of him, and sighed: "It's not easy for you either!"
"you do not say!"
Chef Wang pointed at the dishes and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just look at today's dishes. They were all bought temporarily from nearby farmers. Today's dishes are not as good as before."
Ji Yunqing didn't care about this at all: "It's okay, it doesn't matter what you eat, as long as you have something to eat!"
As long as the food is delicious, she is not picky about it.
Chef Wang said as he was busy, "I just don't know if the master will like it..."
Ji Yunqing did not say anything on this point.
She only met Concubine Liu yesterday, but didn't see her again today.
After washing a basin of green peppers, Ji Yunqing stood up and planned to take a rest.
She looked at Chef Wang standing in front of the earthen stove, cooking with a spatula in hand, and was eager to try.
I wonder if she could try it?
At this moment, Ji Yunqing heard Zeng Cheng's voice.
"Why are you here?"
Before Ji Yunqing could answer, she continued: "Since you are here, then come and work with us. You can't eat and drink for free."
Ji Yunqing pointed at himself in surprise: "Are you talking about me?"
Someone actually expected her to work?
It's unbelievable.
Zeng Cheng did take this reaction as being reluctant.
He suddenly laughed happily.
Zeng Cheng continued, "How about this, you will prepare all the dishes for everyone today."
Chef Wang wanted to stop him: "This is not appropriate..."
Zeng Cheng glared at him and said, "How can you have any say here?"
Chef Wang didn't dare to say anything more.
Therefore, under Zeng Cheng's coercion, Ji Yunqing had to take over the important task of cooking.
In order to supervise Ji Yunqing, he even condescended to stay and personally watch Ji Yunqing's every move.
Whenever someone tried to help in the kitchen, Zeng Cheng would stop them.
In the end, everyone could only help out a little, and the most important work was given to Ji Yunqing.
Alas, Mrs. Ji is so miserable.
Zeng Cheng was very satisfied watching Ji Yunqing stumbling while cooking, choking on the smoke and becoming speechless, and almost burning his hair due to his clumsy hands.
Still find fault: "What a loser, he can't even do this job properly!"
Ji Yunqing turned around and glared at him fiercely, "Just wait, the prince will definitely come to save me!"
You'll be in trouble then.
