Chapter 23

Dong Jingchen was stunned, looked at her slightly red and swollen eyes, and laughed, "Why did it happen to her by her wife again? It's not to be hiding it. I want to catch the three-tailed guys and go back."

Three tails, that is, female crickets. Cricket players have always been the ones who raise males, but also females who raise females.

"... Didn't the prince catch one or two females last time and go back?"

"Don't mention it, it's all gone."

"Ah, that's bad." I don't know whether he said it or not, or how much he heard it, Chen Ning could only think that they happened to save her life, and said gratefully: "Thank you for helping you just now." She glanced at the dead green snake. It seemed that it was a bamboo leaf green snake. It was very unfavorable for her recent years... But who used the hidden weapon? Looking at her skill, she was a very high-quality one.

The ancients did not deceive me. Chen Ning was ashamed.

"It's just a matter of hard work. Mrs. Li needs to be more careful in this mountainous land."

"The prince said, I will be more careful next time," Chen Ning bent down and put away the wine glass, carried the small basket and walked slowly towards the two of them. "The kindness of saving lives cannot be repaid. Why not the civilian woman helps the prince to help the prince add a beautiful and charming cricket?" If he really came to catch the cricket, she would sacrifice her life to accompany the gentleman. Her embarrassment might have fallen into the eyes of both of them. Chen Ning was not angry about the invasion of her. Unfortunately, this person has a high position and a powerful person, so he can only verbally prevent him from getting out of the stage.

Dong Jingchen looked at her inexplicably and said slowly: "Then I'll bother Madam."

This familiar scene made Wanfu feel mixed emotions again. He widened his eyes and wanted to catch crickets again?

Really caught? Chen Ning seemed to smile but not smile.

The two of them walked forward for a while, and found a black shadow of a cricket under a pile of dead leaves. Chen Ning made a gesture of silence, gently put down the small basket, and slowly moved forward.

Dong Jingchen raised his eyebrows, lifted the black-colored robe he was wearing today, tied it in a golden jade belt, took two steps forward, and then squatted down with a golden sword, put his arms on his knees, looking for the small prey.

Chen Ning glanced at his black boots inlaid with gold wire, looked up at his heroic and almost rude posture, and his interesting smile that was not fake, and he was stunned. In fact, there was no sense of incongruity...

Suddenly a cricket rushed out, Dong Jingchen was quick-witted and rushed with his hands, but it was empty.

This shock caused the insects to run around under the dead leaves, and the two of them naturally found a new place. Dong Jingchen stood up regretfully, "The gadget is so clever." He said while lowering his head to look for it, his serious attitude was no less than when he was on the battlefield.

Chen Ning was really confused in the wind.

This time, Dong Jingchen found a hidden cricket. He turned around and waved to Chen Ning to come forward. Chen Ning was too excited and walked over in a daze, guarding him behind him.

Dong Jingchen stepped forward, bowed his waist and bent his hands slightly, stared at the dark shadow in the grass, clumsyly rushed forward, but the cricket was already prepared, kicking his back legs and jumping gracefully. Who was satisfied that before he could reach the blade of grass, the other two hands had already reached the sky and the earth.

"Have you caught it?" Dong Jingchen turned around and asked anxiously.

Chen Ning lowered his head and endured the pain on his body. She became sick again. After being injured and catching crickets with conditioned reflexes, would she become the first guy to die from catching crickets?

Dong Jingchen came over and saw that she didn't move, and didn't say anything.

After a while, Chen Ning looked up and smiled, "Catch it."

Dong Jingchen looked at the sweat beads on her forehead and the far-fetched smile, and smiled with his hands behind his back, "Okay! Wanfu, come quickly and bring the cage."

This made him miserable and where did he turn it into a cage? He hurriedly looked around and found a green bamboo. He pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist. He seemed to cut off a piece of the middle without any effort. He pulled out a silk handkerchief from his arms, and made a simple cage in just a few seconds.

Chen Ning slowly caught the cricket in his two fingers and looked at his tail, "It's a pity that he is a male."

"It's okay," Dong Jingchen approached, "I heard it sound loudly just now, so I should be just fierce."

Chen Ning put the crickets into the freshly baked cage and glanced at Wanfu.

A thousand blessings are used to observe the eyes and eyes.

"But yourselves, you caught one by one last time. Why did you get abnormal this time?" Chen Ning quietly stroked his chest and said casually.

Dong Jingchen coughed awkwardly, "I am in a bad mood now, please wait, I will catch a three-tailed person himself." He turned around and walked into the jungle.

Chen Ning, who dug his own grave, had to follow behind with his fate.

"Master..." Wanfu shouted in a voice that only he could hear.

After listening carefully for a long time, they finally found traces of crickets again. This time, Shen Ning finally decided not to be quarrel. She just squatted down while not looking at the crickets. She secretly looked at Dong Jingchen with a focused look on her face. This man... is such a talent. He has clearly restored his nature and is so arrogant. How could he squat on the ground like a playboy in the blink of an eye and catch crickets like a playboy? Could it be that the ancient royal family were like this, and they took on the great responsibility of the country at a young age, but they still had a childlike heart? But he was too divided... It was like two people, brother...

"Ha, there is." Just as she was in a daze, a sound of joy came from the front.

Chen Ning came back to his senses, congratulated him and asked, "Is it male or female?"

Dong Jingchen opened his big hand slightly, but the insect inside flapped his wings when he saw the light. Chen Ning's hands were faster than his heart, and he quickly pressed his hands down.

The two of them looked at each other for a moment in the flash. Chen Ning immediately pulled away and asked, "Didn't the cricket run?"

The cold touch dissipated from the back of the hand, and Dong Jingchen responded slowly.

"It's good if you didn't run away, Xiao Wanfu, come here quickly, your prince caught another one."

The proud voice was like coaxing the little kid, Wanfu stepped forward with a tough bullet and said, "Congratulations to the prince."

Dong Jingchen pinched the little insect and raised his eyebrows, "Mother."

Wanfu sweated from his forehead. Master, are you too following the local customs?

"Oh, I just don't know the age of this cricket. If it is a seventy-year-old and eighty-year-old, then we will be in vain."

"Seventh and eighty-year-olds," Dong Jingchen was stunned and laughed, "Fool, if the crickets live for half a year, will they all become cricket spirits?"

Chen Ning's face turned red. Who doesn't know? It's just that his tone... really has no sense of humor.

When Dong Jingchen saw that her face was dyed pink, he shook his head amused. This weird widow, he thought she was not at all about her daughter's attitude, and he would blush if he didn't want to.

After being teased by Dong Jingchen, he caught two or three less "old" female crickets with him. Chen Ning also dragged his body with a faint pain to inspect the people's livelihood after the war. Wanfu led two horses and followed behind with a tube of crickets.

At this time, several stores opened shops for their livelihood, and there were also sounds of carrying loads and hawking in the street. Dong Jingchen smelled the fragrance and felt a little hungry. He turned his head to Chen Ning, who looked around and said, "I haven't had breakfast yet, can Mrs. Li be famous for snacks?"

Chen Ning was also looking for something to eat. She said without thinking: "Zheng Haoshou's buns, Lao Tie's pancakes, and Zhang's noodle soup are all good, but only two are opened. I wonder what the prince wants to eat?"

"What do you think Madam?"

Chen Ning thought for a while, "Then try the fresh ones. Add a local wild vegetables to the Tiejia pancakes. You can't eat them anywhere else. Can you taste fresh ones?"

"Okay, then I'll eat Tiejia pancakes." Dong Jingchen didn't drag it on.

Wanfu was bitter behind him again. The master wanted to eat the street food? What if it was not clean...

Chen Ning led the way, passed by the closed Zheng Haoshou Baozi Shop and said, "This is the Zheng family bun."

Dong Jingchen glanced at it and then said, "When it comes to buns, there is a kind of bun in Changyang that is filled with soup. It has thin skin and many fillings, and looks like a white chrysanthemum. It is the best bag in the world."

"I listen to me... I said it was a pity that it was a royal meal, otherwise I would try it if I had the chance." Although she had eaten soup dumplings in modern times, they were not authentic. Besides, the buns made for the emperor in ancient times were very delicate. Not only did the stuffings inside were made like in Dream of Red Mansions, one bun was the best of a pig.

"What's the difficulty? If Your Majesty asks you to be granted the title of the emperor, I will ask Your Majesty to reward you two buns." Dong Jingchen joked.

"The prince was joking. The civilian woman was just a mountain village woman. By chance, General Huang and Lord You helped him with help. How could he be qualified to meet the emperor?"

"I don't have any final say in these things. It depends on Your Majesty's imperial decree."

Chen Ning smirked.

This evil feudal society.

When we arrived at the Laotie pancake shop, Chen Ning ordered three large pancakes and threw a few copper plates on the side.

"How many cents does a pancake cost?"

"Two Wen." Chen Ning first took a big cake wrapped in oil paper with Lao Tien's wife and handed it to Dong Jingchen, "Give it, Master Leng, eat it while it's hot."

The freshly fried cake smelled so good. Dong Jingchen thought to himself that she called Leng Ye, and she didn't have to care about royal etiquette. Anyway, I've even caught crickets now, so I still care about eating this market snack? I remember that the people who passed by were carrying a load and eating pancakes in big mouthfuls, so it was better to eat it. So he smelled the aroma of oil and bit it down.

The fragrant and crispy cakes exuded a refreshing fragrance. I don’t know if they were hungry or the big cakes were really delicious, but Dong Jingchen felt that they were extremely delicious.

"What kind of dish is this?"

"It's called Songcai." Chen Ning took another pancake and handed it to Wanfu, "Come on, Xiao Wanfu, you're so greedy, staring at Leng's pancakes."

Wanfu's pretty face suddenly changed unpredictably, this lady...

"Hahaha, since Madam gave it, I'll take it." Dong Jingchen took another bite, "I won't give you this cake."

"Master..." Why did the landlord joke with Mrs. Li? Wanfu had no choice but to follow him, and took the pancake with both hands, and didn't eat it.

Chen Ning finally took his own.

Dong Jingchen said: "You have not healed your injuries and are not suitable for eating these things."

"Ah?" Chen Ning was stunned by this sudden care. Why didn't he remember when he was catching crickets with him just now?

"This cake will share your worries." He said that, he took away the greasy paper bag from her hand.

I also snatched the pancakes that cost two cents... Chen Ning dared not speak out, the richer he was, the more stingy he was!

"I still have important things to do. Kneel, retreat, and go back."

What does it mean to kneel down, retreat, and return! Chen Ning was so angry that he was itchy. This guy was very elegant and the temperament of a gangster!

"Master Leng, you have to think it tastes delicious. Come again tomorrow and remember it in Li's account." Chen Ning said generously.

This bastard! Dong Jingchen glared at her, he still had the two coins short of the copper coins!

Wanfu's head was hanging down very low, and he didn't know whether he was crying or laughing.

"It's not a good thing to know." Looking at Chen Ning's slow back, Dong Jingchen couldn't help but laugh and scold.

Wanfu has something to hold in his heart. The master is indeed very sympathetic to a woman's injuries. If anyone else is not grateful, it is a little late... But Mrs. Li treats her master as an ordinary family and still holds a grudge against her master for robbing her pancakes... This case is really hard to break.

Chen Ning walked past a family, and a mourning woman in hemp and mourning took a basin of water and splashed it at the door, cursing at her back, "Bao! Broom star!" Chen Ning didn't look back.
