The flowering period works

Chapter 843: Brothers Reunited

    

end their children to academies as if all their worries are gone, wishing they could send in a blank slate who comes out as a successful scholar!Actually, learning isn't that easy. There's a big diffe..."Boss, come quick, we've got something good to eat tonight!" a jailer shouted.

Another one jumped down the stairs in a few steps, and then waved back, "Come on in!"

As the sound reached their ears, everyone turned to look. Three men walked in, each carrying two food boxes in their hands.

The aroma faintly wafted from the lunchbox, even more pronounced in the dim and confined prison cell.

The first fellow was dressed the same as the other two, but his back was very straight.

He put down the food box and clasped his hands together with a smile: "My lords, you've worked hard all day. I personally prepared ten delicious dishes to send over so that you can have something light to eat. Please don't find them wanting."

"Haha, no offense."

"Not disgusted!"

The guards were no fools and could tell that this man was not ordinary. They didn't dare offend him, so they just smiled and flattered him politely.

The jailer nodded and said, "Today someone new arrived in the cellblock. The prepared food is a little short now, so I trouble you to pass some food to the newcomer."

"Yes." The man put down the large food box in his left hand and patted it casually, saying: "There are some other things underneath this box that are even more filling. I hope the officials will like them."

Having said that, he bowed and carried the lunch box in his right hand into the room.

The remaining two accomplices immediately stepped forward, busying themselves carrying the dishes out.

Soon, the dining table was filled with dishes.

Chicken, fish, meat, eggs, and two kinds of seafood. It's truly a feast for the eyes, nose, and taste buds.

The jailer dismissed the companions and personally opened the last food box.

Besides the white steamed buns on top, there was also a layer of silver ingots below, weighing five taels each.

The guards' eyes were blazing, all fixed on the jailer.

The jailer gave them each a cell, and tucked the remaining two into his own arms.

Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with joy. They quickly got organized and began to eat merrily.

In the corner cell, the fellow also brought the lunch box.

The man in black sitting on the wooden fence turned his head and exclaimed in surprise, “Second Brother, how did you get here Dressed as a clerk”

Needless to say, this fellow was Jia Huan.

He rolled his eyes in anger, really wanting to knock his little brother's head clean off.

"You have the nerve to say that, our whole family almost went crazy because of you. You were always mischievous as a child, and now you're all grown up, but you haven't improved at all!"

Jia Huan gritted his teeth angrily, but still opened the food box and quickly took things out.

The wooden fence was a bit narrow, so the plates couldn't fit through. Luckily, Jiahuan brought mainly grilled chicken, skewers, and steamed buns, which were easy to pick up and eat without plates.

Jia Yi hehe smiled, taking the thing and gobbling it down.

Since he committed the crime, it's been more than half a day, and he's already hungry.

Seeing his younger brother gobble down the food, Jia Huan felt both a pang of pity and surprise. Just as he was about to say something, a figure suddenly darted out from the dilapidated grass pile in the corner, startling him.

Fortunately, Jia Yi was alert. He didn't even let go of the steamed bun in his hand. With a swift kick, he sent that "rotten scoundrel" flying back.

The "rotten grass demon" was still coming towards them, Jia Yi casually threw him a steamed bun and half a roasted chicken. The "rotten grass demon" sat down cross-legged and ate with gusto.

Jia Huan stared in disbelief, pointing at the "Grass Demon" and looking at his younger brother, asking: "Who is this"

"I don't know," Jia Yi replied nonchalantly, "He was here when I arrived."

"He's particularly skilled, so I'm going to have him spar with me these next few days. It'll keep my body sharp, so I have the strength to kill the Japanese pirates when I return south."

Jia Huan immediately got angry, unable to contain himself. He reached in and slapped his younger brother, saying, "You're already twenty years old! Can you use your brain when doing things"

"You're quick to kill, just barging in after doing so. Don't you remember Granny's sixty years old She can't stand this kind of scare!"

"Jīa Xǐ and Jīa n haven't sent any news. Grandma has worried herself sick multiple times, and now you come back to stir up trouble!"

Hearing the words "grandmother", Jiayi felt uneasy and whispered, "Is grandma alright What about my sister... "

"Family, take this skewer of meat," he snatched it and thrust it into his hand, furious. "Fine! You're ungrateful, unfilial! We're not like that with you!"

Jia Yi felt relieved and happily devoured the skewers, eating until he was satisfied.

After he finished his meal, Jia Huan reached under the food box and took out some things to pass to him, instructing: "These things were prepared for you by your younger sister. There's a dagger and medicine powder here. Keep them for self-defense."

Also, from now on, your meals will be delivered from the restaurant. Don't touch anything in the prison kitchen.

He then handed in a flat water flask.

Jia Yi's eyes flashed. This unexpected level of caution from his family made him both curious and worried.

He lowered his voice and asked, "Second brother, tell me the truth, how did the Wu family bully our family Is my younger sister really safe and sound"

Jiāhuān didn't want him to remember, so she signaled him to come closer and whispered a few words in his ear.

"Damn it!" Jia Yi cursed immediately, "If I had known this would happen, I should have hung that little bastard from the Wu family on the wall and flayed him alive!"

"Alright, now be honest!" Jiashuan was startled, worried that her brother might get carried away and do something rash again.

Though he made a name for himself by killing pirates in the south and rose to become a general, that was all for show in front of outsiders.

Once he was back home, he was still that reckless and brave little rascal.

"Your uncles asked me to tell you to stay safe and wait. They've already sent a message to the Hailing army, and General Tang will be entering the capital soon. You just need to take care of yourself, don't worry about anything else."

Jia Huan was afraid of revealing his secret, and kept nagging Jia Yi until he nodded in agreement. Then, he felt relieved.

On the other side, the jailers had finished their meal and the attendants were clearing the dishes.

Jia Huan could only wave his hands, quickly rushed forward to reunite, and then exited the prison.

Jiamyi was filled with resentment, wishing he could be transferred to a different prison and share it with the Wu family.

Unfortunately, this is simply not possible...

After the "Grass Demon" had its fill, it regained its strength and began to compete with Jia Yi for the dry patch of land at the doorway.

The two sparred back and forth in the small prison cell, a lively duel once again...

Early the next morning, just as dawn broke, the food box from Xianke Lai arrived again.

This time it's millet red date porridge and pork scallion buns, plus four small dishes.

The millet porridge was a golden, thick consistency, the steamed buns were soft and plump, and the side dishes were salty, fragrant, and crispy.

As usual, half went into the prison and the other half ended up on the jailers' tables.

The jailers rubbed their sleepy eyes, munched on steamed buns, and drank porridge, all in jest.

"These days are so enjoyable, I'm hoping the person inside will stay a few more days."

"Haha, you're telling me! This is Xiankelai's cooking. They say even silver wouldn't guarantee a taste!"

There was also someone who couldn't help but sigh and said in a low voice, "They say the Li family protects their own, we used to just hear it, but now it seems like that saying is true."

This man inside, he killed a high-ranking official. If this happened in someone else's house, they would have abandoned him long ago out of fear of being implicated. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"But this one, he doesn't let himself suffer even a little bit in terms of food, clothing, and shelter. It's really enviable…"

People were also craning their necks to look, "Just now they sent another package in, it seems like bedding and new clothes, right"n slapped his younger brother on the head and shouted, "It's me who should marry her, not you! Besides, the County Princess is so intelligent, she probably wouldn't look down on us."After saying this...
