Bai Yu was shaking with excitement. He was sure to be full!
"We have a lot of food to eat." The younger sister burst into laughter and turned her head to give Bai Yu a dirty smile. "It will be our turn soon."
Feeling the younger sister holding her hand tightly, Bai Yu's eyes became firm. If she died, her cowardly younger sister would definitely be abused by the bastards and die in a cold corner.
Must survive!
"Don't grab, don't take the initiative to reach out, your dirty hands will ruin the porridge." The villagers who were serving food cursed and waved the stick in their hands. With their right hands, they used a soup spoon to scoop a spoonful of porridge from the earthenware jar. The sparse wheat grains in it were so shabby that even dogs would find it shabby.
"It smells so good! So many wheat grains!" Hei Yu's eyes widened and he took the initiative to let go of his sister's hand. This kind of porridge is only available during the Chinese New Year.
Then, the villager took a piece of black bread the size of an adult's fist from the wooden basket next to him and stuffed it into Hei Yu with an impatient look.
"It's still hot!" Hei Yu swallowed his saliva, took the bread and was about to leave.
"Wait." Sparrow called Hei Yu, took a bread from the basket, stuffed it into Hei Yu's arms, and smiled sympathetically, "You took one less, you will be hungry at night."
The villagers who deliberately gave one less bread were very unhappy: "This is a useless little bastard, there is no need to give her two breads, one is enough for her to eat for three days."
If there is a lot of food left, they can steal some when the maid is not paying attention.
Sparrow knew what they were thinking, and immediately folded his hands in front of his chest and turned his face away: "This is the order of Lord Field. The lord said that all slaves have two loaves of bread and one portion of oatmeal."
"Well, anyway, in the wealthy Bull Territory, adult slaves should have one loaf of bread every two days, and children should have one every three or four days." The villagers said sarcastically.
"But this is Night Territory! Everything here is brand new!" Sparrow was really a little angry. She borrowed Field's words and reiterated forcefully, "Everything is, brand new!"
The guard who was maintaining order frowned. The three words "Bull Territory" always made them very sensitive. Lord Field had suffered humiliation there. He immediately cast a "nuclear" look.
The villagers were sweating and shrinking their necks and said, "You are right, it was my mistake."
Bai Yu was very relieved, but she didn't dare to cheer in public, so she had to cast a grateful look at Sparrow with a beaming face.
What she didn't expect was that Sparrow also smiled at her.
"Am I seeing it wrong?"
Such an elegant and clean woman actually smiled at herself?
Bai Yu was dizzy, and pulled her sister to find a corner where no one was sitting down. Without saying a word, she wolfed down a piece of bread and licked the oatmeal porridge used to soak the bread clean. The wooden bowl could even be taken back and used again because it had been licked to a shine.
The little girl felt full for the first time, and her thin belly, which had been malnourished for a long time, bulged slightly.
"Ah~ Delicious~"
The younger sister was drooling and opened her mouth wide to eat the second piece of bread, which scared Bai Yu, who quickly patted the back of her sister's hand.
"You can't eat it anymore. You have to hide this." Bai Yu said sternly.
"Hmm..." Feeling the pain on the back of her hand, the younger sister opened her mouth and tears rolled out immediately.
"Don't cry." Bai Yu rubbed his sister's head and changed his tone to a gentle one. "There won't be many good days like this. If you eat all the food, you will starve to death in an emergency. So, be good, let's hide the bread and eat it when you are almost starving to death."
"Okay." Hei Yu handed the bread to his sister in a baby voice, pouting, "Don't eat it secretly."
Bai Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His sister was quite smart. He immediately pinched her nose and said lovingly, "Okay, okay, I will call you when I eat."
Not only the two sisters did this, most slaves would hide the bread. For them, it was not just bread, but the continuation of life. Who knows what the noble lord's order will be tomorrow? Even if the lord is not bad and is willing to give everyone food, the executors below may not give it. The behavior of the villagers today is an example.
"Sister, what do you think the lord is like?" Hei Yu hugged his knees.
"Well, probably a man with a beer belly, rotten teeth and a haughty attitude." Bai Yu answered unhappily based on the image in his memory, and then looked around vigilantly, "Or a drunkard with a beard, humph, he even forgot to change the decree after a hangover."
Hei Yu drooled and recalled: "Don't say that, people who give bread are good people."
"Lunch time is over, go to work!" The guards shouted, driving the slaves back to the farmland.
Sparrow was a little tired, but working for the lord made her very happy.Happy, she hummed a little tune and returned to the kitchen of the winery. She also wanted to have lunch.
"What are you doing together?" Sparrow saw several colleagues sitting at the table with serious expressions, and immediately came over.
Maids love gossip.
"Sparrow, this is the lunch given by the lord, called dry pot beef, which is very special. In the past, the lord would only give us the leftovers, but this time he directly shared some."
One of the reasons why servants like Field is that Field is very picky about food. There are many delicious dishes made by the chef, such as fruits, smoked fish and nuts stewed together. Field will only taste one bite at most, and then the servants can enjoy all of them.
Of course, there will also be steaks, goat milk and even the most delicious venison. As long as they can eat a bite, they can be happy for a whole month.
Similarly, the servants don't like Ashina at all, because Ashina never leaves any food.
Ashina can always eat all the food with a smile, which is in sharp contrast to the beloved lord.
And she can't get fat!
"Uh, why does it look like this? It looks like dried feces, and a bit like my aunt who was burned to a mummy by a fire." Scissors said bluntly, "And there is no fruit or soup, how can it be delicious."
Just like Field saw the dark cuisine, this time it was the servants' turn to sweat. They had never seen or heard of such a dish, and they also thought that it was Field's dark cuisine that he made on a whim.
The pot glanced at Scissors and was about to report it.
"Scissors, don't talk nonsense!" Sparrow angrily nudged her with his elbow, "You are insulting the lord's reward."
"Oh, sorry, you know what I mean, I respect Lord Field the most." Scissors hurriedly smiled at everyone. If the lord knew this, he might marry her to an ugly perverted old man, "Next time I will help you clean your room, please forgive my slip of the tongue."
"At least it smells good."
