Chapter 3458: Extra 38 that went astray

Bai Shan let go of his hand and let her look at the meat in front of her.

Zhou Man swallowed his saliva when he saw the freshly fried bugs and said, "It's a bit scary."

Bai Shan: "...Don't swallow your saliva and say it."

He and the stall owner ordered a pair of clean chopsticks, picked one and handed it to her mouth, "Try it?"

The freshly cooked bugs exuded an alluring aroma, and Zhou Man secreted saliva unsatisfactorily. She simply closed her eyes, opened her mouth and bit forward. After biting, she closed her eyes tightly and started chewing. She said "Eh"

With a sound, he opened his eyes and looked at Bai Shan with bright eyes while chewing, "It's delicious."

She pushed Bai Shan's hand and said, "You want to try it too."

Bai Shan said calmly: "I tasted it yesterday."

Zhou Man looked curiously, "This is different from the bugs we eat in Lingnan. What kind of bug is this?"

Yin You wandered over and saw it. He turned away and looked at another stall, not looking at the insects on the stall. He urged: "It's almost dark, why are you still here? Bai Er and Princess are waiting in front."

Zhou Man stopped listening to the answer and urged the stall owner: "Give us a bag...one pound..."

Bai Shan said hurriedly: "This thing is very light. One pound is too much, just two ounces."

He took out the money from his purse. The stall owner had already poured it into the lotus leaves without weighing it. He wrapped it up and stuffed it into Zhou Man's arms. He refused Bai Shan's money and said, "No money, no money.

Come get it after you finish eating."

He smiled and narrowed his eyes, "It is a merit of my whole family that Dr. Zhou can eat the food I made."

Zhou Man was about to give him the money, but he looked hurt, "Miracle doctor, you saved the three children in my family. It doesn't matter that you don't like the bugs in my family. Since you are lucky enough to be liked, don't you think so?"

Isn’t it okay if I treat you to a few worms?”

The stall owner next door, who had been eager to make a move, heard this and immediately rolled up the roasted beef in the stall and brought it over, stuffed it into Zhou Man's hand and said, "Sir, eat mine. This is beef we raise in the mountains. It's better than that insect."

Much more delicious.”

Seeing this, the other stall owners also brought their own things and crowded over, "Mine is delicious too, mine is delicious too."

One of them wrapped a dozen pieces of bamboo rice in cloth and stuffed it into Zhou Man's arms, "This is delicious, this is delicious..."

Zhou Man couldn't hold him at all, so everyone turned to give it to Bai Shan and Yin You who were standing aside.

The three of them were shocked and declined quickly. As a result, the people surrounding them dispersed in a hurry. Even the owner of the insect stall closed the stall and wanted to leave, not giving Zhou Man and the others a chance to refuse.

The three of them finally went to meet Bai Er Mingda with a bunch of things in their hands in confusion.

Mingda's eyes fell on the things in their arms, and he also looked at the things in his own arms, and asked with a smile: "Are we still going to the restaurant?"

Zhou Man saw that her and Bai Erlang's arms were also full of things, and his heart instantly became balanced, and he smiled and said: "I'm not going, let's go back and have a meal."

When Li Si heard at the Chief's Mansion that the five people were back, he just asked the kitchen to prepare some special meals for them and then ignored them.

Mrs. Li hesitated a little, "They will leave tomorrow. Today many chiefs and officials came to ask, are you really not going to hold a banquet for them to practice?"

Li Si: "None of these nobles are showy and extravagant people. Since they refused, it means they don't want to socialize. Why force them?"

Mrs. Li didn't say anything more. When she saw Li Si putting incense, she asked in a low voice: "Aren't you going to get married?"

Li Si said without looking back: "Auntie, my mission is to guard the Liaozi Department. Getting married... will only make the situation more complicated."

"But Aman was sent to the capital. You can't live without a child," Mrs. Li said, "Aman is from a girl's family, otherwise you can adopt a child."

Li Si turned back to look at her and said: "Auntie, you have just recovered from a serious illness, so you should not be too busy. You should have a good rest during this period. He has a funeral. You must observe mourning for him for at least one year. After one year, if you want to,

I can choose someone to marry for you."

"What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't get married, why should I get married at my age?"

Li Si looked sarcastic, "I'm not young anymore, why do I want to get married?"

She said: "After getting married, I have to have children. Who will hand over the affairs of the Liaozi Department? Do I make the decision in the chief's house, or does the husband who is somewhere make the decision?"

Mrs. Li looked at her in surprise, "You..."

"Auntie, haven't I made you understand yet? In the face of power, what do wives and children mean?" Li Sidao said, "Even my biological father would give up on me for the sake of power. How could I expect other men to do anything to me?"

Where's the mercy? That's why I won't marry."

"Why do you think so? Isn't your cousin very kind to you? He even gave up his life for you."

"That's why I won't get married," Li Si's eyes fell on her face, "He didn't let me down, and I won't let him down. I will stay chaste for him in this life. I am a member of his Zhang family.

Death is the fault of his Zhang family."

Mrs. Li opened her mouth wide. She wanted to say that she didn't mean it, but she couldn't find the words to refute her. After all, she had been asked to say it on both sides.

Mrs. Li had a headache for a while.

Li Si just pretended that he couldn't see it, raised his head and glanced at his father's memorial tablet, then turned and left, "I plan to free up the room next to it to put the Zhang family's memorial tablet. Grandma, please help me clean it up when you have time."

Mrs. Li:……

The memorial tablets of the Zhang family and the Li family are placed in two adjacent rooms, and one does not know who is restless underground.

No matter who it is, it won't be her.

Li Si raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and put them together so that she could put on three sticks of incense every morning and evening.

The grievances between the Zhang family and the Li family have long been unclear, but now that the male members of both families are dead, the grievances have been completely settled in Zhang Man's generation.

Bai Shanzhou and others gathered around the table to eat the food they brought back from outside. They were talking about the grievances between the Zhang family and the Li family, taking advantage of the fact that there were people from them both inside and outside the courtyard.

Zhou Man chuckled and said, "Chief Li must have never imagined that the Liaozi Department would eventually fall into Li Si's hands."

Bai Erlang: "So don't offend anyone who is a scholar, especially a scholar named Bai."

Bai Shan turned to look at him, "Who are you talking about?"

Who is saying that they don’t have a clue?

Bai Erlang said: "If you hadn't intervened, could Li Sin have become the chief?"

Bai Shan opened a bamboo tube of rice and said nonchalantly: "Wouldn't everyone be happy when Li Si becomes the chief?"

Since everyone is happy, why not?

"Except for Li Yi," Yin You said with a smile, "so it's not wrong for Bai Er to say he can't offend you."

Bai Shan smiled and said to them: "You can sleep more tomorrow. Ziqian and I will go ahead to release the animals and meet at the foot of Hou'er Mountain."
