Madam, please give me some advice

Chapter 375 Moral kidnapping?

After a long time, the villagers finally prepared the food. The best food the village chief said was brown rice porridge, steamed bread, simple pickles, wild vegetables...

Ji Xingle and the others stared at the village chief and the villagers with wide eyes, and the followers said speechlessly;

"Village chief, is this what you call delicious food? There's not even any meat..." ( ；′Д｀)

"Aren't you cheating us out of our money?"

The village leaders smiled awkwardly and said;

"It's raining heavily now, so it's hard to get the ingredients. This is the best food we have here..."

"Yes, yes, yes. We can't eat such thick brown rice porridge. It's not convenient to buy it on rainy days.

We don’t know when the rain will stop, and in order to save food, we only eat one meal a day…”

"It's because you spent money, otherwise we wouldn't be willing to spend so much brown rice to cook porridge..."ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉ

So you took our money and cheated us, so we should thank you? ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Everyone complained in their hearts speechlessly.

Unable to make up his mind for a moment, the follower looked at Ji Xingle again, and Ji Xingle nodded to indicate that he would accept it. After the village leaders left, he said to the crowd;

"Each person should eat a small bowl to fill their stomach first."

Then he looked at the guards; "Later, you guys go to the mountains to see if there is any game and bring back some..."

"Yes, master."

The children were very curious about the food, and after taking a few bites they started to cry.

"Pah, what the hell is this? It tastes so bad..."

Ji Caifu and his companions, Fu Leyu and the other servants were heartbroken when they saw this. It had been raining heavily for the past few days, and the food they had stored had long been eaten up.

I thought I would have food to eat once I got to the village, but it turns out the villagers can barely afford to eat...

Ji Xingle finished a small bowl of porridge in two mouthfuls. Seeing that the children didn't like it, he coaxed them:

"Drink it! Don't waste food. Some people want to eat but can't even get it!"

Ji Yunchi said incredulously;

"Who would eat something so disgusting?"

Ji Xingyi said, "Yes! The food our servants eat is a hundred times better than this..."

Ji Nanyu said, "Mother, you are not lying to us, are you?"

The other children all blinked their big, Caroline eyes and looked at Ji Xingle, wanting to know if their mother was lying.

"Of course it's true. Didn't my mother go on a long journey some time ago? The people there are very poor.

Some people can only eat wild vegetables. If they can eat brown rice porridge, it means that their family is not bad. If they can eat the polished rice we usually eat...

That's even more incredible, the family must have a lot of money saved to be able to eat refined rice..."

“Is there really such a poor place?” ( ；′Д｀)

"Yes! They have no money to buy food. When the food at home is finished, they can only dig wild vegetables or go to the mountains to hunt game.

Of course not everyone is lucky enough to hunt wild game..."

"why?"

"Because they don't have enough to eat, how can they have the energy to catch game?"

"What should we do when we have finished eating the wild vegetables?"

Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Ji Sichen raised his hand and answered;

"I know, I know..."

"Oh?"

Ji Xingle saw that she wanted to show off, so he smiled and held her in his arms, pinched her little face and said;

"Then you tell me..."

The others looked at Ji Sichen.

Ji Sichen said seriously;

"Now that we have finished eating wild vegetables, we must eat wild game!"

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Ji Sichen didn't understand, he looked at everyone with wide eyes, and asked in a low voice with a red face;

"Mother, am I wrong?"

Ji Xingle raised the corner of his mouth and coaxed;

"You're right. After you've finished eating wild vegetables, you can eat wild game. But that's only if you can catch it. If you can't catch it, you'll just starve..."

"What happens if you're hungry?"

"I will die..."

When Dad Zhao saw Ji Xingle say this, he slapped her on the shoulder and scolded her with a smile;

"How can you say that in front of the kids?"

The rest of the people also held their foreheads in frustration. ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉ

Ji Xingle said with a smile;

"That's right! If you don't have anything to eat, you'll be hungry. If you're hungry and don't get food, you'll die if you're hungry for too long..."

Seeing that his grandchildren were listening to Ji Xingle seriously, Daddy Zhao hit Ji Xingle again with a "Pa!"

"You still said."

"Dad, don't worry! It's not a bad thing for children to know these things earlier. At least let them know not to waste food..."

As he spoke, Ji Xingle looked at the children with a smile on his face and said;

"Do you want to eat this porridge now?"

As the eldest sister, Ji Yunchi immediately set an example;

"Eat it. It's just a small amount. I can finish it in a few bites..."

“We also eat...”

The remaining few children saw that their older sisters and brothers had finished eating, so they also started to eat from the brown rice porridge in their bowls.

Seeing this, Ji Xingle looked towards the two Zhao brothers proudly.

As a result, the Zhao brothers didn't even look at Ji Xingle, and Ji Caifu's heart and eyes were full of the children! Seeing them being fooled by Ji Xingle to drink the brown rice porridge, they felt so distressed...

Fu Leyu and the others were more open-minded. After all, it was just this one meal, and they believed that Ji Xingle would not let them eat this kind of food again.

So he didn't stop Ji Xingle's behavior just now.

When they cleaned up the dishes, the guards were lucky enough to find several pheasants and rabbits, as well as some eggs...

Seeing this, Ji Caifu and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They could eat a little worse, but the children were growing up and could not eat worse.

The servants cleaned up the chickens and rabbits, and spent a few coins to buy some firewood from the villagers.

There was some leakage in the kitchen of this old house, so the guards quickly found some things to patch it up.

After two hours of busy work, I finally had the meat and filled my stomach.

The villagers who lived next door heard that Ji Xingle and the others had eaten meat, and they were so greedy that the children kept crying.

A few old uncles shamelessly came to ask for meat. The meat was just enough for the whole family. The servants and guards only ate a mouthful or two and drank some soup.

So Ji Xingle didn't indulge them and asked the guards to send them away. The old uncles refused and tried to blackmail them morally.

Without waiting for Ji Xingle to speak, the guards drew their swords and said coldly to them;

"Please come back!"

"You...you guys...mmmm..."

An old uncle bet that they didn't dare to kill anyone, and wanted to say something, but the other old uncles covered his mouth and dragged him away, whispering;

"If you want to die, don't take us with you..."

"That's right, if you hadn't asked us to come, we wouldn't have come, you troublemaker..."

Damn it! The other party has drawn his sword, but this greedy ghost still wants to tangle with him. He is really not afraid of death.

The old uncle had his mouth covered by them and stared at them angrily. If there was food to eat, he would rather die of fullness than die of hunger.

It has been a long time since he last ate meat. He finally saw meat, but there was nothing to eat. He was so angry.

The old man was dragged back home and tried to escape, but his wife heard what the other two said.

He said to the old uncle fiercely;

"If you dare to go again and cause trouble for us, I will divorce you..."

Hearing this, the old uncle immediately turned pale with fright. If he was divorced after death, wouldn’t he be unable to reincarnate?

He doesn't want it, he won't eat it, he can't be divorced, he wants to be reborn in a good way in the next life...
