Chapter 766 The Journey of Exile (2)
"Here you go, hurry up and show me your skills." Unable to find a suitable inn that night, they ended up in the wilderness.
"Okay." The burly man with the dark face solemnly went to prepare the ingredients.
The Lu family, who thought they would get a share of all those pheasants and rabbits, were completely surprised that Wangyou didn't even give them a glance.
Wangyou cooked for the burly man with the dark face, making him feel uncomfortable.
"Old Meng, do your best. Our master is counting on you," the eunuch whispered.
"But can she really save our master?"
"I don't know either, but it's better than just waiting."
"Young lady, we don't have all the equipment, so we can only bake it."
"Grilling is fine too. Do you need any seasonings? I think I have everything in my bag." Wangyou pulled out a small pile of bottles and jars. "This contains salt, chili powder, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, honey, cumin, and pepper. Use whatever you like!"
"Just wait and see, I'll show you what I've got!" With so many seasonings, the burly man with the dark face became much more confident. After all, even a skilled cook can't make a meal without ingredients.
Gradually, the fragrance began to waft out.
Wangyou tossed a medicine bottle to the eunuch, "Give your master one of these pills to keep him alive for now!"
"Thank you, young lady."
"You're welcome. But could you give me this burly, dark-faced man when your master wakes up?" Wangyou said, her eyes gleaming as she stared at the roasted rabbit on the shelf.
After Wangyou said this, no one spoke, and Wangyou stopped talking about it.
Anyway, it was just a casual remark, but at least she had her food supply for the journey to exile. As for when she arrived at the place of exile, she wouldn't have to worry about not finding a cook.
Besides, the fact that the burly man with the dark face and the eunuch remained loyal to the crown prince under such circumstances shows that they were truly devoted servants. She wasn't that interested in the unwavering loyalty of others.
The whole rabbit was devoured by Wangyou. "Brother Blackface, with your skills, it's a shame you're not running a restaurant. Come on, show me your master!"
As Wangyou got closer to Nangong Che, she smelled something unpleasant. It was clear that although the emperor had shown mercy, it wasn't much.
"We need to remove the rotten flesh from his body, and then sprinkle some of my special medicine on it," Wangyou said, glancing at the wound.
"Black-faced brother, you should practice martial arts, right? Then you can be in charge of scraping away the rotten flesh from your master's body!"
"Aren't you a doctor?"
"I know medicine, but I don't practice it. Besides, your master is too dirty, it will hurt his eyes. Hurry up, it would be best to fetch some water to wash him. There is a stream about three miles away." As Wangyou spoke, she took out various pills and powders.
"After he has removed the rotten flesh, apply this white powder to disinfect it. Half an hour later, sprinkle this green powder evenly on the wound. Then, take one pill a day. In about seven days, he should be able to get out of bed and walk."
Wangyou put the medicine away and then ran out.
The burly man with the dark face and Eunuch Liu split up; one went to the stream to fetch water, while the other went to prepare to dig out the rotten flesh for their Prince Nangong Che.
The constables weren't worried that the two would run away; after all, if they were going to run away, they would have done so long ago.
"Little girl, how did you catch that rabbit?" the head constable asked as he approached.
The two rabbits and two chickens they received today had only a thin scar on their necks, with no other injuries. You know, such scars are not easy to inflict.
"That's it!" Wangyou looked down, plucked a blade of grass, and then flew out with a whoosh. A moment later, a tree branch was cut off.
"You know martial arts!"
"I know a little bit!"
"This isn't just a little bit!"
"Don't worry, as long as you don't provoke me, I won't attack you." Wangyou's words reassured the constables.
"Wangyou, it's not good for a girl like you to run over there," Jiang Shi and Lu Xun said as they walked over.
"Actually, do you know that compared to the sheer wickedness of Lu Tingting's parents, I find you all even more disgusting?" Wangyou said coldly.
"How could you say such things about me and your father!" Jiang was deeply shocked.
"Not only you, but also Lu Chen and Lu Jing, you are all equally disgusting. No matter how bad the Hu family couple are, they still dared to switch us because their daughter was in poor health. But what about you? The first thing you did after learning the truth was to tell me to be magnanimous."
You all believe Lu Tingting's tears and tantrums, and follow her in blaming me. You never considered that I am the one whose life was stolen by her.
Afterwards, they pretend to be loving, unable to let go of this or that. Who are you trying to disgust? I have never needed this kind of parental affection.
Have you ever considered that if I had really grown up in the countryside, in an environment where that couple constantly beat and verbally abused me, and I were dark-skinned, thin, and timid, your behavior would be enough to make me die a hundred times over?
So don't try to get close to me under the guise of doing what's best for me. I don't need it. If it weren't for wanting to see your misfortune, I wouldn't have come at all!
After saying this, Wangyou quickly found a tree, climbed up, and prepared to rest.
Saying these words made me feel much better. This is a world of stories, where the original girl was reincarnated in another world, and her previous life was so tragic.
Having never had a good life since childhood, she tried desperately to please everyone after returning to the General's Mansion, but all she got in return was insults and endless humiliation. During her exile, the girl, who had grown up in the countryside, knew a lot of wild vegetables and medicinal herbs, so she searched for them every day, but in the end, no benefit came to her.
Everyone told her to give in to Lu Tingting, but what did she do wrong?
In the original storyline, it was the way the Lu family couple acted that made the little girl believe that her parents loved her time and time again, ultimately costing her her life.
When Wangyou entered this world, the world's plot disappeared, but that didn't stop Wangyou from disliking her parents.
Wangyou's words were cold and heartless, and Lu Xun and Jiang Shi couldn't accept them for a while. The people around them also looked at them strangely, so they eventually covered their faces and went back.
"Father, Mother, is my sister still blaming me? It's all because I'm too sick and can't help with anything. Father, Mother, why don't you send me away? That way my sister can come back," Lu Tingting said, crying.
"Father, Mother, if she doesn't want to come back, then she shouldn't come back. Tingting is our only sister. She'll know who's good and who's bad when she's hungry!" Lu Chen said indignantly.
"Father, Mother, I'll find an opportunity to talk to Wangyou tomorrow. After all, we're family." Lu Jingdao said sanctimoniously.
Therefore, some people are born unfit to be parents.
The person who is forgetful is someone who will repay you in kind if you treat them well, but if you treat them badly, then goodbye.
As for whether anyone would accuse her of being unfilial, she doesn't seem to care about such things. Besides, she's not on the Lu family genealogy yet, so leaving would be very easy if she wanted to.
But Wangyou still wanted to see how the Lu family brought about their own destruction.
