Chapter 205: Overnight

When a basket of green or red, or half-green and half-red sour dates was placed in front of Hua Lianyue, she couldn't help but hold her forehead and secretly slandered: If this person is unlucky, he will even choke on drinking haggis soup. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Complaining is complaining, Hua Lianyue really borrowed the kitchen from the shopkeeper. He selected a bunch of purple-red sour dates from the basket, skewered them with slender bamboo skewers, boiled half a pot of syrup, and poured them on the skewers.

When the shopkeeper saw the finished product made by Hua Lianyue sweating profusely, he laughed and said, "What kind of rock sugar gourd, isn't it just a sugar ball! This sugar shell is easy to melt in summer, so few people get it." However, there are a lot of people who eat it in winter, and those vendors will also split the fruit and take the core, and then stuff some red bean paste, mung bean paste, lotus seed paste and other fillings, which is much more exquisite than your thing. ”

"You also have this thing?" Hua Lianyue asked Yu Xi for confirmation with some reluctance.

Yu Xi kept laughing and silent, and when she saw that she asked, she had to say implicitly: "What you do is still a little different from the sugar ball, and the sugar ball is not skewered with a bamboo stick." Hmmm......" He seemed to want to express the difference between the two, but he couldn't think of it for a long time.

It turned out that he had been busy for a long time, and he was basically getting an axe at the class gate. "Forget it, don't comfort me......" Hua Lianyue was a little embarrassed, so she threw the slimy sugar gourd in her hand into the pot in frustration.

"Don't throw it away!" Yu Xi hurriedly rescued two strings, and he didn't dislike sticky, so he took a bite carefully. Immediately, his eyes narrowed sourly, and he didn't forget to praise: "It's quite delicious." ”

Hua Lianyue said angrily: "What's delicious! Such a thick layer of sugar shell will definitely stick to your teeth." Don't eat it, throw it away, throw it away!" she reached out and wanted to grab it, but Yu Xi avoided it with a smile.

In front of her, he took another bite, "That's not good, this is what Sister Hua made for me to eat." Even if it sticks out all my teeth, I'm going to eat it all. ”

Hua Lianyue didn't grab it a few times, and when she heard him say this, she couldn't help but be full of depression and anger, she squinted her eyes and laughed.

Hua Lianyue simply let go of her hand and said, "In the end, I ate the sugar ball, and this Sister Hua screamed sweetly." There's no reason to be a sister to send you away with this sticky candy ball, wait, I'll cook you a few more good dishes myself. ”

The flames in the stove were blazing again, and the kitchen knives made a small thump on the cutting board, like a torrential rain pounding on a window. The boiling water in the pot is constantly churning, and although the smoke and water vapor have a strong worldly atmosphere, it is also easy to make people feel warm.

Because she was afraid that the smoke and fire would smoke Yu Xi, Hua Lianyue deliberately kicked him out of the kitchen. He moved a four-legged toad stool and sat at the kitchen door, holding his cheeks with his hands on his cheeks and looking at the slender figure busy in the kitchen with great interest. Ignoring the fact that Outside had already smashed several wine urns, kicked over countless tables and chairs, and drove away all the guests.

Curling white smoke slowly rose from the smoke outlet on the roof, and in the backyard, the verdant and upright jujube tree, which was full of fruits, was also dyed with fireworks.

"What is this?" asked Yu Xi curiously, pointing to one of the bowls of snow-white soup.

"Wensi Tofu!" Hua Lianyue said with a smile: "It's a pity that the winter bamboo shoots are missing, and the taste is not so authentic." These two dishes are exquisite jade hearts and five-silk vegetable rolls, both of which are mainly steamed, less oily and less greasy, which should suit you. ”

Yu Xi held the bamboo chopstick, not knowing whether to clip the crystal pink delicate jade heart, or to clip the colorful vegetable rolls with attractive colors. After hesitating for a long time, his handsome face was a little crimson.

As a result, Cole urged again at the door: "All the gates will be closed before dark, and we really can't delay any longer." ”

Hua Lianyue glanced at him obliquely from the corner of her eyes, and said dissatisfiedly: "What about delaying for a day, haven't you seen that he hasn't eaten for a day." If there is anything wrong on the road, how can you explain it to your master?"

Cole froze, kicked over a square table again, turned and walked away hatefully.

Yu Xi looked at Hua Lianyue and sneered, took a five-silk vegetable roll and put it in her bowl, and said with a smile: "Sister Hua, after working hard for a long time, you can also eat together." ”

Although Hua Liyue was afraid that he would be uncomfortable, she didn't let him eat too much. But this meal is still the most satisfying and comfortable meal Yu Xi has eaten in the past three months. What's even more rare is that he didn't show signs of nausea and vomiting after eating so many things, and Yu Xi himself felt incredible.

Cole was impatient, and had people urge him several times. Seeing that she couldn't drag it on, Hua Lianyue had to get up reluctantly. Before leaving, Yu Xi summoned the unlucky shopkeeper to his side and gave him all the purse containing broken silver as compensation.

The shopkeeper, who was originally full of sorrow, immediately smiled happily and waved at Yu Xi again and again. Yu Xi smiled and turned the horse's head, and walked away to meet the drunken red sunset.

Hua Lianyue was looking at Yu Xi's elegant and perfect back and sighed, and always felt that he really didn't feel like he grew up in a deceitful harem. He behaved more like a son of a wealthy family who didn't know the world. Inadvertently, the setting sun dazzled her eyes. She subconsciously reached out to cover her eyes, and then her body stiffened.

Sunset?Cole was leading everyone towards the west gate. It's bad, it's bad, the northern jujube forest that was said to be good, is it in vain.

Although Hua Lianyue had a heart of seven tricks, she was no longer able to make her Cole change her route, so she could only break out of the west gate with a bitter face and follow the group of people before the heavy ebony gate closed.

The crimson sunset gradually fell, and the sky was covered with a layer of gray gas like smoke and fog. The mountains in the distance, the trees in the distance, and the weeds on the ground were gradually swallowed up by the darkness.

The chirping of insects and the sound of wows came and went, just intertwined with the snorting of horses. Seeing that the northern sour jujube forest was getting farther and farther away, Hua Lianyue's heart was as bored as fire, and the corners of her mouth bubbled up.

The night grew darker, the stars were obscured by dark clouds, the air was sullen, and the frogs in the pools around them were singing more and more cheerfully. Hua Lianyue faintly saw that there was a small village at the foot of the mountain in front of her.

Hua Lianyue's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly grabbed Yu Xi and said, "Seeing that there seem to be signs of rain, let's discuss with General Qi Cole and go to that Zhuangzi to take shelter from the rain for the time being!"

Yu Xi was also exhausted, and it was inevitable that he would be moved when he heard this, so he asked Cole to rest. Qi Cole also saw that it was about to rain, hesitated for a moment, and ordered the guards to rush towards Zhuangzi together.

When I walked in, I found that Zhuangzi was surrounded by weeds, which was obviously deserted. Probably because the original owner was afraid that the war would spread, so the family moved to the city to take refuge. Although the door of Zhuangzi was closed, it did not affect him in the slightest. I saw him pinch the lock with his big hand and twist it gently, and the fist-sized copper lock slid down with the chain.

Although it is a deserted Zhuangzi, it is fully furnished, and the guards even found a well in the backyard, some rotten melons and fruits in the kitchen, and half a jar of golden corn.

Kele looked around and found nothing unusual, so he was a little relieved. So he asked Kura to clean up two rooms for Yuxi and Hua Liyue to live in. The rest of the people, including himself, also came and passed.

Hua Liyue washed her face with well water, and under the stimulation of the cold well water, her whole body regained some energy. So she circled around the weed-infested backyard, wondering what to do next.

She walked around the backyard alone, but she didn't know that an uninvited guest soon came outside the courtyard.

There was a hurried knock on the door outside the lodge, accompanied by the anxious call of a woman. "Is anyone here? Okay, let's borrow it for the night, we still have a pregnant woman who is about to give birth. "Alerted the guards.

Yu Xi, who was hiding in the house and scrubbing his body, put on his robe haphazardly and hurriedly walked out. Just in time, he heard his Cole say to the guards: "Ignore them, if no one opens the door, they will naturally leave." ”

"Nonsense!" Yu Xi said angrily, "Didn't you hear from the outside world, there are still pregnant women who are about to give birth? ”

Qi Cole grabbed his wrist and said in a deep voice: "Seventh Prince, the identity of the people outside is unknown, we can't let people in rashly." ”

"Daring, you dare to disobey my orders. Yu Xi was furious, his handsome face flushed, and his eyes were unusually bright in the light of the torch. At this moment, he is a little less cowardly and forbearing, and a little more extravagant and aggressive.

Qi Cole swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but he didn't dare to look at him, and in the moment of hesitation, Yu Xi had already shaken off his hand and held the torch to open the door of the courtyard in person.

Outside the door was an ordinary green cloth mule cart, driven by a young man in his early twenties, and knocked on the door by a young woman with a beautiful face and a beautiful face.

The young woman was about to raise her hand to knock on the door again, but Yu Xi opened the door coldly, and her fingers almost looked at Yu Xi's head. The young woman hurriedly withdrew her hand and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, these three watches have disturbed your rest in the middle of the night." It's just that it's getting late, and it looks like a heavy rain is coming. Can we borrow your courtyard for one night to take shelter from the rain?"

Yu Xi saw that although this young woman was a little plump, her waist and abdomen were very flat, and she was not a pregnant woman at all, let alone a pregnant woman who was about to give birth. His face couldn't help but sink, and he scolded coldly: "If you spend the night, you will spend the night, why do you want to lie to me?"

The young woman was stunned for a moment and said, "What did I lie to you?"

Yu Xi snorted and said, "Earlier, you clearly said that there was a pregnant woman who was about to give birth. ”

"I see. The young woman seemed to be afraid that Yu Xi would turn them away, so she hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and explained in a loud voice: "It's my sister who is about to give birth, and she is in the carriage." If you don't believe me, you can go and see!" The young woman lifted the curtain of the car, and sure enough, a pregnant woman with a high bulge of her belly lay on her side.

It's just that?

Yu Xi suspiciously moved the torch closer, and saw that the pregnant woman was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, but her eyes, ears, mouth and nose were exactly the same as the young woman standing in front of the car.

"You, you ......." Yu Xi's gaze swirled suspiciously back and forth on the almost identical faces of the two.

The young woman smiled: "Young master, don't be afraid, my sister and I are twins, so we look exactly the same." But my husband's surname is Liu, this ......" She pointed to the young man driving and said, "This is my brother-in-law, surnamed Tang." ”

Hua Liyue is here, and she will definitely jump in surprise. The three people in front of him are the big doubles, the little shuangs and the Shumen Tang Wu.

Yu Xi was startled, hurriedly looked away, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm suspicious." A few people inside, please, this village is abandoned, and we are just temporarily resting for the night. He immediately stepped aside.

"Thank you, thank you!" Dashuang thanked him again and again, and Tang Wuyi, who was driving, raised his whip and drove the mule cart into the village.

The mule cart entered the courtyard gate, but collided with the giant-like Cole. Cole stretched out his large, bear-like hand and pressed it against the wheels of the mule cart. No matter how Tang Wu shook the leather whip, the mule cart couldn't take a step forward.

Qi Cole's divine power obviously suppressed Tang Wu and Dashuang, and just when the two of them were stunned, Qi Cole said in a deep voice: "You can stay temporarily, but remember, you can only stay in a house, you can't come out, and you will leave as soon as it dawns tomorrow." If you dare to do anything, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless. ”

As soon as his Cole fingers were slightly forced, he scratched a large piece of the thick wheel of the sea bowl.

"That's a lot of strength!" Da Shuang pretended to cover his mouth and let out an exclamation, and then said with a respectful face: "We must not come out, not come out!" Tang Wu drove the mule cart to an open area, and only then together with Da Shuang, he carefully helped the little pair with the high belly bulge in the car down.

Yu Xi hurriedly said: "You can live in my room, which has been cleaned, and it is the first room on the left hand opposite." ”

"Thank you, thank you!" his eyes flashed, and he bowed respectfully to Yu Xi and thanked him.

"Wait!" Qi Cole stretched out his hand to stop in front of Da Shuang and Tang Wu, a pair of cloudy but shrewd eyes turned around the three of them suspiciously. Suddenly, he opened his hand and pressed directly into Xiaoshuang's bulging belly.

As soon as his hand stretched out, Dashuang stopped Tang Wu's fury with his eyes. She quickly reached out and blocked Cole's arm. Although she was fast, she didn't use much strength, just limply resting on her Cole's wrist.

She still had a humble smile on her face, and said: "A pregnant woman's belly can't be touched, it will be bad for the child, and I ask this hero's subordinates to be merciful." ”

Qi Cole glanced at her suspiciously, and Yu Xi said unceremoniously: "Don't let them rest yet." ”

Cole withdrew his hand and stepped aside.

Da Shuang glanced at Tang Wu, and the two of them slowed down with Xiao Shuang in their hands. Listening to Qi Cole's dissatisfaction, he said to Yu Xi: "You let out the room, where are you going to sleep at night?"

I listened to Yu Xi say slowly: "What are you afraid of, Sister Hua doesn't still have a room! I went to her house to make a bunk at night, anyway, it's not the first time I've slept in a room." ”

Qi Cole said helplessly: "It's good if you're happy!"

The little double body that was originally half-squinting and pretending to be weak stiffened, and her fingers subconsciously slammed hard, just pinching the soft flesh under Tang Wu's ribs. When he pinched him, he trembled, and heard her whisper in his ear: "If you haven't heard this, don't spread it to the ears of Liu Hui's stingy ghost." ”
