The Father of American Comics Superheroes - Chapter 141: Thank You
Chapter 141: Thank You
Not only Gangu County, but the entire Jingshou County suffered a heavy rain today.
The people rushed into the heavy rain to cheer and wept with joy.
The heavy rain was like a key, opening the floodgates and causing heavy rains in the four southern counties one after another.
The drought in the south completely ended in this heavy rain.
Seeking rain, the prince’s mission on this trip was successfully completed, and the palace ladies and eunuchs began to pack their bags and prepare to set off for Beijing.
As soon as Luo Qingshan and Xiao Xixi had finished their breakfast today, they heard a noise outside.
Zhao Xian walked in quickly and saluted respectfully.
“His Royal Highness, there are a lot of people coming from outside. They heard that you are leaving, so they specially sent some earthenware to express their gratitude.”
Luo Qingshan wanted to say no, but saw Xiao Xixi looking at him expectantly.
He frowned and asked, “What do you want to do?”
Xiao Xixi: “The minions want to go out and see what they gave them?”
“It’s just ordinary things, what’s so nice about it?”
Xiao Xixi pulled her sleeve and begged, “But people are really curious~”
Luo Qingshan used to tell her sternly not to be coquettish, but now he simply doesn’t say such things. Anyway, he knows that even if he says it himself, she won’t listen.
He said blankly: “Go and have a look and go back. You are not allowed to go far.”
“Okay!”
Xiao Xi got up in a daze and ran out with Xing’er.
Luo Qingshan found a place by the window and read quietly in the sun.
It rained all day yesterday, and today the sky is as blue as a wash, and the air still has a moist breath, and occasionally a few wisps of breeze blow, which is very pleasant.
Xiao Xi bounced out of the station.
There are many people gathered at the entrance of the station, all local folks from Gangu County.
They were either carrying baskets or carrying poles, all in large bags, obviously bringing a lot of things.
Xiao Xi ran to them and said:
“I am the person serving by the prince’s side. It is inconvenient for His Royal Highness to show up. Let me meet you on your behalf.”
These people had never seen anything in the world. They looked at the little Liandi in front of them with red lips and white teeth, and they bowed to her one after another.
“Xiao Liandi, we are grateful for the kindness of His Royal Highness the Prince, and we have nothing to repay. We specially sent these earthen rituals. I hope you can accept it.”
“This is the egg laid by our hen. We have always kept it. It was originally intended to be sold for money, but now it is all given to His Royal Highness.”
“This is a pickled vegetable made by my family. It tastes good. You can take it on the road to eat it.”
“It rained yesterday, and a lot of mushrooms grew in the mountains. I went into the mountains to pick a lot of mushrooms before dawn today. There are also these chestnuts and bamboo shoots. They are not valuable things. Fortunately, they are fresh and clean.”
“There are also the geese I raise by myself. They are so fat that they have never been willing to eat them. You can stew them and make up for your Royal Highness.”
“There is also the pig I raised. I originally wanted to slaughter it and then send it to the prince, but I was afraid that the meat would not be preserved after slaughter, so I simply sent the whole pig to you.”
……
Xiao Xi’s gaze swept around on these delicious food, feeling that his two eyes were not enough.
Her gaze finally locked on the big fat pig, and she couldn’t help but curled her eyes with a smile.
“Uncle, this pig in your family is really beautiful.”
Uncle laughed: “Xiao Liandi is really funny.”
Xiao Xixi asked, “Are you a mother or a male?”
“Naturally, it’s a boar, and the female pork is not as delicious as the boar.”
Xiao Xi was a little disappointed: “I still want to get a sow to give birth.”
The uncle is very heroic: “It’s okay, I’m a butcher, specializing in the business of killing pigs. I still have several sows in my family. If you want, I’ll send it to you right away.”
Xiao Xi nodded excitedly: “Well, thank you uncle!”
