Chapter 69: Homesickness
Li Yuanhao walked into the inn, the inn was closed, only the shopkeeper who looked like a scholar in front of the counter sighed, crackling and making calculations, checking the day's bill, a small guy not far away, holding his chin with one hand, leaning back and closing back.

Walking to the shopkeeper's side, Li Yuanhao knocked on the desk, and the shopkeeper woke up, greeted a small servant, and led the guests upstairs to choose a room. The shopkeeper was furious, raised a foot and kicked on the buttocks of the little guy, and the little guy woke up violently, shouting: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, the wine and food will be fine immediately, right away." I scratched my buttocks, only to realize that it was late at night.
"You stupid lazy boy, don't hurry up and get to work. The shopkeeper's horizontal eyebrows were cold, and when he turned his head, he greeted him with a smile: "Guest officer, wait a minute, let the next person clean the room first." ”
Li Yuanhao nodded, sat in the hall and waited, the little guy carried a bucket, back and forth inside and outside the room, a little clumsy, when he didn't meet the shopkeeper's mind, it was a burst of cynicism, it seemed that even the eighteenth generation of the little guy's ancestors had brought it, and the corners of the little guy's mouth were closed, obviously not convinced, but he didn't have the courage to refute.
Seeing this situation, Li Yuanhao smiled, and suddenly remembered the little eunuch Yu Qing, and I don't know how this stupid and cute little eunuch is doing now, whether he is doing well under Zhao Duling, is it that I am also like this shopkeeper treats the little guy like beating and scolding on weekdays, thinking of this, she is a little sympathetic to Yu Qing and the little eunuch, and when she thinks of the things that the little eunuch does on weekdays that make people annoying, she is a little sympathetic to herself and the shopkeeper.
The little eunuch talks a lot, chatters all day long, often dances with his hands, waving up and down in the air, pointing at each other or himself, endlessly, Li Yuanhao often suspects that the rumor that "His Majesty the Emperor slept with seven little palace maids in one night" was made up by this little eunuch.
"Guest officer, I've kept you waiting, the guy at home is too stupid, please go upstairs. The shopkeeper said with a smile, stretched out his hand, and made a way.
Li Yuanhao went upstairs and saw the little guy under the light, he was not very old, his face was immature, and even the pimples looming on his face were the same as Yu Qing, he was scolded by the shopkeeper, he was in a bad mood, pouting, and it seemed that he didn't even like Li Yuanhao.
Still a child, Li Yuanhao shook his head, took out an ingot of silver from his arms, thought about it, put it back again, took out a smaller ingot of silver from the new, and handed it over: "Don't tell the shopkeeper." The little guy who saw the money immediately smiled, hugged the silver, and went downstairs. The shopkeeper downstairs had already seen everything in his eyes, and said to the little girl: "Don't mess around, the old lady and sister of the family are still counting on you." The little guy nodded emphatically. And Li Yuanhao, who heard everything in his ears, said to himself: "It's because I'm stingy, and I give less money." ”
Entering the room, Li Yuanhao was stunned at first, the room was surprisingly clean, she checked the tables, stools and corners, and they were all spotless, she couldn't find a little fault with a little cleanliness, and what was even more commendable was that there were bookshelves in the room, and there were all kinds of books on the shelves.
After a little washing, the lights were turned off, Li Yuanhao lay on the bed, everything was fine, the bed was comfortable, and there was no smell of mold and moisture in the air, but she just couldn't sleep, got up in her clothes, opened the window, and looked at the Yuelu Academy not far away, Yuelu Mountain under the starlight and moonlight was towering and straight, Yuelu Mountain was not the most majestic mountain nearby, the snow-capped mountain peak that went straight to the sky behind Yuelu Mountain was, in winter, the top of the snow-capped mountain was white, as if wearing a hat, it was particularly beautiful, I heard that there was a lake under the snow-capped mountain, the name was very meaningful, called Yingxue Lake, the lake was colorful and turquoise, just like a turquoise gem。
It's a pity that Yuelu Academy has a clear rule that it is not allowed to climb the snow mountain privately, and now the snow mountain behind Yuelu Mountain and Yingxue Lake are forbidden places for the college. I don't know if my father and mother have ever been to Yingxue Lake and climbed the snow mountain, whether the two of them will make a private decision in the snow mountain for the rest of their lives, there is an acacia tree as a witness, and the flowers bloom in an instant, and the sky is brilliant, Li Yuanhao dragged his chin with one hand, and thought in his heart.
The night outside is getting deeper and darker, the lights and candles are getting thinner and thinner, and the whole town slowly falls into silence, Li Yuanhao yawned, there was sleep but no sleep, she thought of Li Xiuce again, Xiuce when she was a child did not sleep honestly, she always loved to pinch Li Yuanhao's two earrings to fall asleep, his hands and feet were restless, the bed he kicked was rattling, and occasionally it would fall on Li Yuanhao's body, and he woke up the next day like no one else, complaining about Li Yuanhao: "Brother, you were really dishonest when you slept last night, and you made a noise until I rested." ”
Li Yuanhao was speechless and burst into tears, especially in the summer, Li Xiuce, who was afraid of the heat, stretched out his hands and feet, put a big character on the mat, squeezed Li Yuanhao into a corner, and carried him to the side of the mat, and after a while, he began to turn over, punch, and kick again.
At the age of six, Li Xiuce moved to Chuxiu Palace alone to sleep, the first night Li Yuanhao thought that he could finally sleep peacefully, he must sleep until the sun rises, the sun is three poles, tossing and turning in bed, tossing and turning in the middle of the night, she can't sleep, she got up and came to Chuxiu Palace, and saw Li Xiuce who was pouting and sleeping with his buttocks, and his heart was full of jealousy.
took off his shoes and socks, got into Li Xiuce's quilt, and in a daze, Li Xiuce turned over, and naturally grabbed Li Yuanhao's earrings, Li Yuanhao smiled and fell asleep.
Li Yuanhao got used to it for a whole month before he could sleep completely alone, Li Xiuce, who was just over six years old, patted Li Yuanhao's shoulder and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Brother, I am very relieved to see you grow up." ”
Shaking his head with a smile, Li Yuanhao thought of his grandmother again, the domineering ancestor who seemed majestic and inviolable to outsiders was always so amiable in her eyes, Huang Chunfeng said that grandma was the best person in the world, and it was the world that drove her crazy, Li Yuanhao had never seen what Huang Chunfeng said about the "best", but she always knew that it was her grandmother who was sheltering herself and Xiuce from the wind and rain, and she was forced to do some things, if she could, she really wanted to take over the burden on her grandmother and let her live a comfortable and stable life for a few days.
I miss the dumplings made by my grandmother, the skin is thin and the filling is more, and I eat a mouthful of oil and water in one bite, which is so fragrant!
Rubbing his reddish eyes, Li Yuanhao suddenly felt a little homesick.
