228 Homemade

"I can't remember," Yan Qidao, "I was still young at that time." "Actually, I haven't worn it yet.

"I ......" Xiao Tianhang pondered for a long time, and said very cautiously, "Can I ask Miss a question of rudeness?"

You ask. Yan Qi looked at this adult who was not smiling but was very polite to her.

"Excuse me, Miss...... Is there a cinnabar mole on Miss's chest?" Xiao Tianhang looked at Yan Qi with great apologies but some eagerness.

"Have you seen me when I was a child?" Yan Qi's question represented the answer.

Xiao Tianhang's figure seemed to shake slightly, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he had adjusted his mood for a long time, but when he spoke, there was a slight hoarseness in his voice: "I've met once...... At that time, the young lady had only been born for three days, and the family gave you three baptismal rites, and it was at that time that I accidentally saw a cinnabar mole on the young lady's chest...... I heard my grandmother say that she had cinnabar on her chest, and she must have been a person with a delicate heart in her previous life, so she had some impressions of this......"

There is cinnabar in the heart, isn't it because he was injured here in his previous life? A fatal wound from one blow, so that this wound remains on his body in this life.

"Then you must know my father and mother very well. "Yan Qidao.

Xiao Tianhang didn't respond, but looked at Yan Qi's face intently, and only spoke again after a long time, his voice was dyed with irrepressible warmth: "How has Miss been doing all these years?"

"Good. Yan Qi did not avoid Xiao Tianhang's undisguised gaze, and also raised his eyes to look at him.

Xiao Tianhang couldn't help but smile, thinking that he was born with a deep lock on his brows, he slowly relaxed, and sighed softly: "The way you look at people, you look very much like your father...... Frank, calm, and domineering with ideas that are not afraid of heaven and earth...... True. ”

"My father is a military general, and he should be domineering. "Yan Qidao.

Xiao Tianhang still didn't respond to this, but he was still looking at Yan Qi carefully: "Why are you so thin, it's not good to eat at home?"

"......, how do you explain this...... "I just lost ...... fat" and this is not up to the standard of a thin person, right?

Xiao Tianhang shook his head: "At a young age, growing the body is the first thing, and when you are old, you will naturally lose weight. What do you eat at every meal every day?"

"Don't worry, I'm all about exercising to lose weight now, running and swimming every day, and I also participate in the training of the riding and archery club in the afternoon, and I have muscles in my arms and legs. "Yan Qidao.

"Can training be hard?" Xiao Tianhang frowned slightly.

"Fortunately, I like it, and it's not easy to get sick when you're strong. "Yan Qidao.

Xiao Tianhang nodded slowly: "But it's also ...... It's better than taking medicine every day......" suddenly seemed to think of something, "What are you responsible for in the comprehensive martial arts team?"

"Cannon. ”

"Can shoot arrows?" Xiao Tianhang's eyes moved slightly, "How is the archery technique?"

"Uh, how do I answer that......"

"Who is your archery master?" Xiao Tianhang asked.

"He's gone. ”

"So you're practicing on your own?"

"Sort of. ”

"Do you need another master who teaches archery?"

"Well, one disciple can't worship the second master. ”

"It's okay, don't apprentice, just do a teaching. Xiao Tianhang directly patted Yan Qi's board, "The master who taught Chen'er archery was invited by me when I was in office, and it is very famous in the local area, Chen'er can win the Yayuan at the Houyi Festival, which is inseparable from the master's teaching, this time we went to Beijing, this master also followed, and now I live in the house, and my family has a small population, and this mansion is also large, I am about to start construction to set aside a place in the back garden to be a shooting range for Chen'er to practice archery, then you can come to my house to learn archery with this master, and there is also a venue available- If you're worried about the inconvenience, call your teammates along. ”

"The junior understands the kindness of the adult," Yan Qi looked at him, "The junior will practice archery in the academy riding and archery club every day, and the daily training amount is also arranged by the head of the school. ”

Xiao Tianhang seemed to realize his mistake when he heard this, coughed clearly, slowed down his tone, and said, "It's because I didn't think about it, so that's it." Looking at Yan Qi for a while, he was speechless, but he seemed to have something full of words that he couldn't say.

"Do you have anything you want to say to your juniors?" Yan Qi asked him directly.

Xiao Tianhang stared at her, without thinking deeply, he was about to speak, but he heard the sound of Teng Teng's footsteps from far and near, and saw a little girl running over from there, so he pressed it again, and only said to Yan Qi: "Let's talk about it later, dinner is almost ready, I'll go and see." Then he turned and walked away.

Wu Yue ran to the front and asked Yan Qi while dusting off her skirt, "What did Master Xiao tell you?" Looking at him from a distance, he looked very nervous, and his whole body was tense and straight. ”

"Had some homely chats. "Yan Qidao.

Before dinner was served, everyone saw Mrs. Xiao, with friendly eyebrows and gentle conversations, entertaining the girls to eat at another table, sitting Xie Fei on the left hand, but pulling Yan Qi on the right hand: "What dishes does An An like to eat?" sweet, sour, glutinous or spicy?"

After asking Yan Qi's words, he immediately called it.

"I love these dishes. "Yan Qidao.

"If you like to eat, eat more, it's the time to grow your body. Mrs. Xiao kept giving Yan Qi vegetables, and Wu Yue was amazed when she was next to her.

Xiao Tianhang's family of three is not too lively people, so the dinner is also a little quiet, after the meal with a cup of tea, everyone is about to leave, the Xiao family father and son sent people out, but Mrs. Xiao pulled Yan Qi aside, walked aside, from the delicate small box held by the maid behind her, took out a filigree chrysanthemum golden hairpin clustered into Yingluo-style petals, the gold silk was drawn thin and even, a slight gust of wind blew this layer of dense gold petals trembled out of a piece of gold, the heart of the flower was inlaid with fine amethyst, flashing dreamy and quiet light under the light of the lantern。

"I have an eye for An An, and this hairpin should be a meeting gift, don't dislike it. Mrs. Xiao said with a gentle smile.

"This is too precious, and the younger generation can't accept it. "Yan Qidao.

"Elder, don't dare to resign," Mrs. Xiao smiled and feigned, "I think it's just right to match your dress, if you are uneasy, go to the door a few more times and be my companion, I have only been in Beijing for a short time, I am not familiar with life, and I hope to become a New Year's friend with An An." ”

"Then the junior will accept it," Yan Qi also simply, "I don't have anything to give back to you, please go to the West Market to eat Ding boiled sheep another day." ”

"Good. Mrs. Xiao smiled and gently stroked the top of Yan Qi's head.

Back to the Yan Mansion, Yan Qi went back to the room to take a bath first, and when his hair was almost dry, he simply curled it up, and went to Banyuanju alone.

Before Yan Zike returned home, Yan Qi was standing under the corridor and teasing Narcissus, Narcissus had just eaten and drunk, and was feeling happy, flapping his wings and flying down, standing on Yan Qi's shoulder, tilting his head and looking at her sneakily: "An An?"

"Hello, Narcissus. ”

"Alas, An An. ”

"When did you learn to sigh?

"Alas......"

"Don't sigh, my heart is sour. ”

"An An. ”

"Well, you say. ”

Narcissus didn't speak, but secretly frustrated and slowly leaned over his furry head and gently pressed it against Yan Qi's face.

A man and a bird snuggled up to each other in the late autumn evening breeze, until the night was so dark that it covered the gloom of the garden, and a little crystal light lit up in the distance, slowly drifting towards this car, and when it was closer, I saw this person holding a glass lantern in one hand and a jar of wine in the other, and a branch fell behind empty-handed.

"How long have you waited?" said Yi Xing, stepping up the stairs and looking at Yan Qi's face.

"Just came. Yan Qi carried the narcissus and followed Yan Zike into the house.

"What did you eat for dinner?" Yan Zike put the wine jar on the table, and the three branches came in with a basin with clean water, put it on the basin shelf, and withdrew with the same branch.

"Lord Xiao has a treat today and pulled the entire comprehensive martial arts team away. Yan Qi stood beside him with Narcissus on his shoulders and watched Yan Zike wash his hands.

The sleeves rolled up to the elbows, revealing two thin, sturdy forearms, and the ten slender fingers always had the smell of a squishy strand.

This hand-washing rack is made of a natural plum branch brushed with black lacquer, and there are two maids on it, a towel used to wipe your face and hands, and a hollowed out nest to put fragrant pancreas. The pancreas is green bamboo-flavored, the aroma is ripe and clear, and the ten fingers are interlaced and shuttled in the turquoise foam, which becomes the tip of the thin white bamboo shoots that have been peeled off.

"Xiao Tianhang?" Yan Zike didn't seem surprised, wiped his hands and didn't drop his sleeves, just sat down at the table with his bare arms, opened the mud seal of the wine jar and poured himself a bowl of wine, like a tavern runner, "Taste?" Invite minors to drink together, as for why Xiao Tianhang invited the comprehensive martial arts team to eat at home, it seems that it is not worth asking at all.

"It smells like chrysanthemum wine. Yan Qi also sat down at the table with Narcissus on his shoulder, and reached out to take a wine bowl, Yan Zike personally poured it for her, but only poured a wine skin.

"Chrysanthemum wine can't be every year, if you don't drink it this year, you won't be able to drink it next year, it's a pity to throw it away. "Yan Daqian is stingy again.

"I received so much chrysanthemum wine during the festival, no matter how much I drank it, I couldn't finish it. Yan Qi picked up the bowl and touched it on the side of Yan Zike's bowl, and took a sip, which was astringent and sweet.

"Won today?" Yan Zike dried the wine in his bowl, every autumn is the busiest time, and he has no time to watch the comprehensive martial arts competition.

"If you win, you almost can't get out of the gate of Yushu Academy. ”

"Hehe, splendid jade tree, it has always been like this. Yan Zike stretched out his hand and took another wine bowl, poured a layer shallowly, put it on the table, and then withdrew his hand, and the narcissus flew down from Yan Qi's shoulder, pretending to be a walk and slowly approaching the wine bowl.

"I heard that my father was also on the comprehensive martial arts team back then, what kind of responsibility did he have?"

"The chariots, horses, and artillery are handsome and well-versed in everything. ”

"It's so powerful, did Jinxiu win the championship of comprehensive martial arts back then?"

"Hehe, in the six years that your father has been studying in the academy, the comprehensive martial arts champion has never been left behind. ”

"I started to worship him. ”

"Back then, there were your father, Wu Changdao and his five younger brothers, Xuan Hao, Liuzheng, and your two maternal uncles...... In those years, the splendid comprehensive martial arts team was known as the strongest lineup in history, invincible and invincible. ”

"Will Xuan Hao and Liuzheng also be martial?"

"Xuan Hao can only make a few fake moves, but he likes to play, so everyone only lets him be a general, and he is only allowed to nest in his own position, but because Jinxiu's combat power is too strong, the other party rarely has the opportunity to rush to the Jinxiu position, so Xuan Hao has hardly fought with anyone. Liuzheng also doesn't know martial arts, but he has a strength, that is, the production of organs, and the Cui family's Xiaosi is the same way, the organs he makes are ever-changing, both offensive and defensive, making Jinxiu's already strong combat power more and more powerful. ”

"What about you?"

"Hehe, I'm the audience. ”

"How nice it is that you have witnessed the wonderfulness of everyone. ”

Narcissus has begun to blatantly steal wine.

Yan Zike was drunk before him, and it seemed that every time he talked about old things, he was extremely drunk.

"Outside the Yangtze River birds, among the bright moon and stars. This is the case in the past and the past, and the people are ...... in the autumn," Yan Zike's fingers gently flicked the wine bowl and sang drunkly, "The wine is like a cloud, the conversation is like Qi, and the gas is like a rainbow." At that time, I was drunk and drunk, and I was only allowed to appreciate the same heart. Shen Xiu asked, between the pitches, I am also old and fluttering. Looking at the blue clouds for a long time, a wild goose spends the cold sky ......"

One branch stood under the porch outside the door, and listened to the uncle and nephew chatting solemnly, and it didn't take long for them to start singing, one singing and one harmonizing, and the other bird singing rap in it.

What is homely? It's not that parents are short, it's not that they ask for warmth, it's not that they care, it's not that they are messy.

It's about drinking loneliness, singing about the past, and enjoying the old scars.

This is the homely life of the half-edge house. 166 Reading Network
