Chapter 404 Wei Ruo came to the rescue in the snow.
Lu Yuhong was the first to ask: "Miss Wei, why are you here?" "
I came back from the wasteland and caught up with the heavy snow. It was too dangerous to continue on the road, so I rested where I was." Ruo replied.
Lu Yuhong asked again: "Are you planning to set up camp here?"
"Yes, the wind and snow are very strong, and the road is dangerous and unpredictable. The terrain here is open and there is no risk of avalanches. It's okay to rest where you are as long as you keep warm. There will be danger." Wei Ruo analyzed.
This is indeed the truth, and all six people showed their approval.
But the prerequisite for doing this is that you need to have enough supplies with you.
People like them...
Wei Ruo asked: "Why are you here?"
Yuan Wangyuan, who was beside Lu Yuhong, replied on behalf of the others: "We set out to go down the mountain when it just snowed in the morning. We didn't think about it at the time. The snow was going to fall so hard. I thought that I would quickly go down the mountain to the stable at the foot of the mountain to retrieve the horses and ride them into the city. I never thought that the snow would be very thick at the foot of the mountain, and it would be even more dangerous to go up the mountain again. So I decided to ride back to the city, but I didn't expect that after only half of it, I could no longer move forward."
Yuan Wangyuan looked embarrassed when he spoke.
Wei Ruo was keenly aware of the difficulties faced by these people. Not only were they wearing thin clothes due to such heavy snow, but they also only had a few horses around them, and they probably didn't bring much food.
So Wei Ruo took the initiative and said, "If you don't mind, just rest in my shed for a while and warm yourself up by the fire."
Wei Ruo took the initiative to invite, saving a few people the embarrassment of speaking up.
"Is it okay?" Liu Yu asked with some surprise.
"Of course it's okay." Wei Ruodao.
Lu Yuhong smiled and said: "Liu Yu, what are you talking about? Brother Yichen is here. He is a biological brother and sister. What are you afraid of when he is here?"
Liu Yu smiled: "Brother Yichen is right, but we are not related to Miss Wei, so we are very grateful to be taken in by her." "You are right to say that!"
Lu
Yuhong With that said, he took off the jade pendant from his waist and gave it to Wei Ruo as a thank you gift.
Wei Ruo naturally didn't dare to accept it.
Wei Yichen stopped Lu Yuhong and said, "Brother Lu, men and women cannot be intimate."
Lu Yuhong was stunned for a moment before he realized that it was very impolite for a man to give his jade pendant to a woman.
So he smiled awkwardly and said: "I'm sorry, Miss Wei, I didn't mean to be frivolous. It's just that I didn't think so much at the moment, so I just wanted to express my gratitude." If Wei
knew Lu Yuhong's careless personality, he couldn't help it. I will argue with him.
"You're welcome, Mr. Lu. You guys can sit down somewhere first. Meimei and I will cook a pot of broth. Let's all drink some soup to warm ourselves up." After
explaining to a few people, Wei Ruo went back to the carriage to get his things.
After Wei Ruo entered the carriage, Yuan Wangyuan patted the shoulder of Xu Fengyuan, who had been silent the whole time, with a smile on his face: "Brother Xu, if you have something to say, you need to say it. Don't bore yourself." "I have nothing to say." Xu
Fengyuan road.
"Brother Xu, your words can be deceiving, but the way you looked at the eldest girl of the Wei family just now cannot deceive others." Yuan Wangyuan revealed.
"Brother Yuan, I'll find some rocks to use as seats, and you can place our horses."
Xu Fengyuan changed the topic, then handed the reins of his mount to Yuan Wangyuan, and then walked away.
Yuan Wangyuan smiled and shook his head helplessly, and then his eyes fell on Wei Yichen who was also silent.
It's strange to say that Xu Fengyuan was so talkative when he met the eldest girl of the Wei family, why was Wei Yichen also silent? They are obviously brothers and sisters, but they don't look very familiar with each other. Wei Yichen and Miss Wei don't look as familiar as Lu Yuhong.
Not long after, Xu Fengyuan moved the stones and placed the horses around the shed.
After everyone sat on the rocks and roasted over the fire for a while, bursts of attractive aroma wafted out of the steaming pot.
Lu Yuhong was the first to lose control. While smelling the aroma of food, he asked Wei Ruo, who had just got off the carriage, "
Girl, what are you cooking in this pot? Why is it so fragrant?"
"Mutton soup, my God. It's freezing in the cold place. Drinking mutton soup can keep you warm." Wei Ruo replied.
"It smells so good! My stomach is growling." Lu Yuhong said.
"That must be because Mr. Lu, you are hungry." Wei Ruo said.
"It's true that I'm hungry. We haven't eaten anything since morning, but the smell of your broth is also true." Lu Yuhong commented.
Yuan Wangyuan on the side joked: "Master Lu, don't be tempted to eat it secretly."
Lu Yuhong said angrily: "Don't worry, I will never move until the big girl says you can eat it. Using chopsticks before the food is cooked is disrespectful to the food."
Wei Ruo smiled and then handed a cloth bag he took out of the car to Lu Yuhong.
"You guys roast this on the fire pit to keep it warm, and you'll eat it with the mutton soup soon," Wei Ruo said.
Lu Yuhong opened the bag and saw that it was filled with noodles bigger than their face plates.
Several people took one without hesitation.
While several people were warming themselves by the fire, Xiumei brought out a few more cloaks and blankets and distributed them to several people.
"Although these cloaks are women's style, they are all new and have never been worn by anyone. If you gentlemen don't mind, you can put them on to keep them warmer." Wei Ruo added.
Without being polite or hesitant, a few people took one and wrapped it around themselves.
Compared with etiquette and face, life is more important.
With cloaks and blankets to keep out the cold, and a brazier for warmth, the six of them felt a lot warmer.
After a while, the mutton soup was cooked. Wei Ruo served everyone a bowl of soup and put two large pieces of mutton in each bowl.
Seeing the bowls and chopsticks that Wei Ruoxin took out, Lu Yuhong couldn't help but sigh: "Girl, you have so many things in the car." "I often go out to open up wasteland,
where supplies are scarce, so I am used to bringing everything with me." Wei Ruo explained. road.
In fact, not all of these things are carried on the carriage. No matter how large the carriage is, the space is limited, and it is impossible to carry such a complete set of things.
Especially things like mutton that are not easy to preserve will go bad within a few days of being left on the carriage.
"The eldest lady has foresight! Thanks to the eldest lady, we can keep out the cold and keep warm today." Yuan Wangyuan said.
Wei Ruo smiled and said, "Drink it while it's hot."
A few people drank it while it was hot without being polite.
I don't know whether it was because they were too hungry, or the mutton soup cooked by Wei Ruo was just better than the ones elsewhere, but everyone had a look of surprise and satisfaction on their faces.
"Girl, your mutton soup is so delicious. This is the best mutton soup I've ever tasted so far! And this cake is also more fragrant than other cakes!" Lu Yuhong exclaimed.
