Chapter Seventy-Four: A Battle of Wits and Courage (4)

The woman didn't force it, and asked the child to move out two stools, Li Yuanhao covered the wounds on his body, settled Li Xiuce, and the two sat in the courtyard.

The woman entered the kitchen, and after a while, brought out two bowls of fragrant chicken soup.

Li Yuanhao brought it over, his eyes couldn't help but light up, the mushroom chicken soup, the soup is thick and delicious, the color is milky white, I took a sip gently, it was even more delicious, and the mouth that had been raised by Chen Luoyan couldn't find a little fault: "Sister, this chicken soup is so delicious!"

When the woman heard that someone called her sister, and no one had called her sister for many years, she couldn't help but feel a sweetness in her heart: "Wait, sister will serve you two another bowl!"

said, without waiting for Li Yuanhao to excuse himself, he entered the kitchen again.

The children in the yard were holding a book at this time, scratching their ears and cheeks, as if they were stumped by a certain problem, at the beginning of their faces were resolute, and they had the potential to break the boat, and gradually rubbed their fat cheeks, their brows were furrowed, and their faces were painful, and finally they grabbed the hair tied into a small braid, and simply threw the book to their side, and their limbs were wide open, and they sat on the stool with their limbs wide open, looking at the blue sky, with an indifferent expression of life and death.

Li Yuanhao became interested for a while, and asked, "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

The child straightened up and picked up a book: "My mother sent me a few couplets, but I couldn't answer any of them." In the past, my father and I suffered together, but now my father is out and has something to do, and I am the only one left, so pitiful. ”

Li Yuanhao couldn't help but smile, this is a very interesting family: "Your father still has to suffer with you?"

"Yes, my mother taught me and my father to read and write, and my father was a little dumber than me. The child deliberately lowered his voice, not to destroy the image of his mother's virtuous and gentle mother in front of outsiders.

He looked at Li Yuanhao and Li Xiuce, will these two people have couplets? Hey, where do the two beggars know what couplets, forget it, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor: "Well, will you do a couplet?"

Li Yuanhao looked at Li Xiuce, such as guessing lantern riddles and couplets, which require brainstorming, the little prince of the Northern Wei Dynasty is better than His Majesty the Son of Heaven of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Li Xiuce coughed, and said a little condescendingly: "Read it and listen to it." ”

The child also coughed, his face was a little dissatisfied, what is bullish, you may not be able to come up: "Sanjiang spring." ”

Li Xiuce didn't think about it: "Wuyue Qingpine." ”

The child was slightly surprised, reacted quickly, and neatly fought against the battle, and read a couplet: "The spring breeze is thousands of miles away." ”

Li Xiuce rolled his eyes, disgusted that the couplet was too simple: "Jia Sui is safe and blessed." After a pause, Li Xiuce raised his chin: "It's a little more difficult, it's too easy." ”

The child's fingers followed the book, and the last couplet was the longest: "The moon is full in the sky, the moon is half a moon in the ground, and the moon is full and half a moon." ”

Children should not be literate, and they are a little stumbling to read, and they don't seem to understand the meaning of Shanglian, so I read it in private again, hey, why are there so many months. Li Yuanhao is like a child, he is already dizzy, let her memorize by rote, this kind of thing that requires moving her head, His Majesty the Emperor really can't do it.

"It's a bit hard. Li Xiuce muttered, muttered a little, and said: "Today's year, tomorrow's year, year after year." ”

"It's so amazing! It's so difficult, it's all right all at once!" the child couldn't help but admire, and his inexplicable admiration for Li Xiuce rose.

The two children were talking, the child's mother had already walked out of the kitchen, and it was two big bowls of chicken soup, Li Yuanhao took it, and even said thank you, really embarrassed polite words, but the mouth was very honest and never idle for a moment, delicious, really delicious.

The woman smiled and watched Li Yuanhao drink chicken soup, and didn't ask anything else, in the troubled times, there are always all kinds of upheavals, everyone has their own sad story, she walked from the Central Plains to the grassland, followed the axle of the northward migration of the carriage and horses to the north, it is not easy to settle down in Shengjing City, as for marrying a good man who stands up to the sky, and can also have an obedient and sensible child, that is the gift of immortality, the compassion of the Buddha.

"You drink first, I've got something to do. The woman said as she took out a medicine jar and cleaned it.

"Sister, is there a patient at home?" asked Li Yuanhao casually.

"Yes, lying in the hall, fighting with others, being beaten badly. The woman said with a smile, not in the slightest fear of reproach.

"From then on, you have to pay attention, don't fight with people casually, you can make money by being kind. Li Yuanhao said, looking in the direction of the hall.

"That's it, it's easy to understand, but some people just don't understand. The woman shouted at the hall, the two of them talked, the hall could not be heard, the woman shouted obviously to the people inside, and then got up and went to the kitchen to decoct the medicine.

The children admired Li Xiuce's five-body throwing to the ground, the couplets of a book were simply completed, and the experience of the couplets was told to the children in a few words. The child's eyes lit up, but Li Xiuce just smiled slightly, blew on the chicken soup, and took a big sip, it was really a good soup.

After drinking the chicken soup, Li Yuanhao carried Li Xiuce on his back: "Thank you to your mother on my behalf, let's go first." The two left the courtyard.

The woman boiled the decoction, and when she went out, she found that the two had left, only to see her child holding a kite and going out to play: "Is the couplet right?"

The child's voice was very loud: "It's all right!"

How could the woman not know what had just happened, took the book and looked at it, the battle was extremely neat, and she couldn't help but praise: "That pair of sisters and brothers is by no means ordinary people." ”

At this time, a burly man walked out of the wall in the hall, his face was pale, and when he saw the woman, he said respectfully: "Sister-in-law." ”

The woman sighed: "Longshan, the imperial doctor in the palace said, your injuries are too serious, don't be reckless, if there are three long and two short, your eldest brother will complain about me." ”

"Sister-in-law, even if you give your eldest brother a hundred guts, he doesn't have the courage to complain about you. Tuoba Longshan laughed, touched the wound, and couldn't help but gasp, the woman was so domineering, and the wound still hurt faintly: "By the way, I just heard my sister-in-law talking to someone." ”

Passers-by begged for two bowls of chicken soup to drink. The woman said, still reminiscing about Li Yuanhao's sister just now, and now the entire Huns regard her husband as the god of war, and she, an ordinary woman who does not know martial arts, has also fallen into the title of a god of war lady, so sad, looking back at Tuoba Longshan: "You Tuoba family, you all love to fight, and Yushu may be the same as you in the future." ”

Tuoba Yushu grinned: "Mother, no, I want to study hard and become a literati in the future." ”

"Yushu, be good, be a literate gentleman in the future, don't be like your father and uncle. The woman touched Tuoba Yushu's head and went into the kitchen again.

Tuoba Longshan shook his head and nodded the tip of Tuoba Yushu's nose: "Don't think I don't know, you are invincible in fighting among the children of this Xiude Fang, and you have mixed the title of an invincible little overlord, be careful to expose, and be beaten on the board." ”

"Dad doesn't say it, uncle doesn't say it, my mother just heard about it, and she didn't believe it. Tuoba Yushu said with a smile, opened the door and walked out of the small courtyard, and just saw Li Yuanhao who disappeared around the corner.

This is the first time Li Yuanhao and Tuoba Yushu have met, and when they meet for the second time, it is already twenty years later, that sunny autumn.
