1201 Tenacity
All the weapons in the Bishi Courtyard were taken away, but the jujube was still up. Fight without a sword, and don't stop until you're exhausted.
The news soon reached the ears of Yuxi and Yunqing. Yuxi didn't express an opinion, but Yunqing said, "I hope she can keep going." "Only by insisting on **** can Yuxi soften her heart and release her early.
Not long after breakfast, Mother Qu realized two strange women. One of them, dressed in Hunan clothes and about thirty years old, was an embroidery lady named Mi, and she taught jujube needlework. In addition, the woman surnamed Tu, who was about forty years old, came to teach jujube cooking.
Zao Zao was angry and annoyed, and said: "Mother Qu, you take them away, I don't learn any female celebrity cooking." ”
Mother Qu blessed her and said, "County Lord, this is what the princess ordered, please don't embarrass the old slave." "Mother Qu's attitude towards jujube is as respectful as ever.
Zao Zao is not such an obedient person, and said with a cold face: "I don't learn what my mother orders." ”
Mother Qu said respectfully: "The princess said that if the county lord does not learn, she will no longer send food to the Bishi Courtyard." Wait for when the county lord will start learning, and when will he bring food. ”
Zao Zao said incredulously: "What are you talking about? If I don't learn from my mother, I won't be allowed to eat?" People are all children who use hunger strikes to persecute their parents, but here in Yuxi it is the opposite.
Mother Qu corrected Zaozao's words: "It's not that the county lord is not allowed to eat, but it is to make the people of the entire Bishi Courtyard, including the county lord, defeated." "The people of this Jasper Courtyard naturally refer to the people close to Zaojube. Rough mother-in-law and the like are not counted.
Zao Zao didn't believe it, and drove Xiuniang and Tu Pozi away. As a result, at noon, not to mention the food, there were no pastries.
After thinking about it, Zao Zao asked people to invite Brother Hao to come over. I can't see my father, so I can only ask for help from Qihao.
In the evening, Qi Hao arrived at the Bishi Courtyard, looked at the jujube and asked, "Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?" In fact, Qi Hao knew about the Bishi Courtyard.
Zao Zao said weakly: "Ah Hao, I haven't eaten since noon, do you have anything to eat?"
Qi Hao shook his head and said, "No." "Qi Hao was educated by a noble son, how could he bring food on his body, it would be too damaging to his image.
Zao Zao was so hungry that he said, "Qihao, where is my father, where is my father, I want to see my father." "Now the only one who can save her is her father.
How could Qi Hao not know what Zao Zao's idea was, he glanced at her with pity and said, "Dad went to Xihai early in the morning to inspect military affairs, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come back until April." ”
Zao Zao wailed: "Mother, this is deliberately breaking my father apart." "Don't look at Zaozai's arrogant temperament, but she is fine! I knew that Yuxi was warm-hearted and hard-hearted, and Yunqing was the opposite, a cold-faced and soft-hearted. This is also why she dared to be presumptuous in front of Yunqing, but she never dared to make any big trouble in front of Yuxi.
Qi Hao's face sank, and he said: "What is the mother's father, the matter of my father's going to the West Sea has long been decided." Eldest sister, you did something wrong yourself, and now you are complaining about your mother. Eldest sister, a Wu Jinyu really fascinated you and didn't even want your father and mother?"
Zao Zao said a little sneeringly: "I didn't complain about my mother, I just really don't like needlework and female red." Ah Hao, can you help me intercede with my mother?"
Qi Hao flatly refused and said, "Eldest sister, I won't help you intercede." Since you have chosen Wu Jinyu, don't think about leading soldiers to fight anymore, and you can learn female red cooking at home with peace of mind in the future. After two years, my mother will let you marry Wu Jinyu in a beautiful way. ”
After a pause, Qi Hao said to Zao Zao again: "Also, Grandpa, he is very disappointed in you. "Zao Zao was raised by Huo Changqing, and now that such a thing happens, isn't it just slapping him in the face! Not to mention pleading, he doesn't want to see Zao Zao.
These words dealt a heavy blow to the jujube.
People are iron and steel, and if you don't eat one meal, you will be hungry, let alone two meals. Jujube, who has always slept on the bed, can't sleep in bed this night. After half a ring, Zao Zao said to Xia Zhi, "Go and bring me a bowl of water." "I poured water for a day today, and my stomach was full of water, and I don't know how many times I went to the clean room. But if you don't drink it, you're even more hungry.
After drinking the water, Zao Zao looked at the top of the bed: "Do you say that my mother really won't let me lead the troops?"
How could Xia Zhi guess Yuxi's thoughts: "County Lord, what does the princess think, the slave maid can't guess." But if you rebel against the princess again, it will only make the princess even more angry. ”
Zao Zao turned to look at Xia Zhi and asked, "You mean to let me compromise and go to learn female red needlework?"
Xia Zhi said: "County Lord, this is the princess's order. There's nothing you can do but obey. "Don't say that in the palace, most of the world is the princess's final say. It is true that the county lord is the princess's own daughter, but if she is annoyed, there is no good fruit to eat.
Zao Zao lowered his eyes and said to himself: "I will not compromise on this." ”
After three days of starvation, Zao Zao was so hungry that his hands and feet were soft, and he had no strength to speak. But in this way, Yuxi didn't come to see her, and even Liu Er and Brother Hao didn't appear.
Compared with endurance, no one can compare to Yuxi, and jujube is even worse. After four days of starvation, Zao Zao finally didn't hold up and compromised.
For this result, Yuxi was not surprised. Zhi'er is like a mother, how many catties and taels of jujube are and who knows better than her.
Mi Xiuniang originally wanted to teach jujube and jujube line first. It is not usually difficult to hold a sword hand instead of a needle and thread. The calloused hand caught up on the thin threads and became a ball.
Seeing that the hands of jujube jujube should not be separated, Mi Xiuniang taught her the needle method instead. As a result, as soon as the jujube is forced, the needle becomes bent. This needle is bent, and even if it is straightened again, it is not as good as it started to use.
The reason why Mi Xiuniang was chosen to teach jujube is because this person has excellent patience. Mi Xiuniang smiled very gently and said: "Don't be discouraged, the county lord couldn't control his strength when he first started learning, and he will get better slowly." "This is uncontrollable power, this is Hercules at all.
Zao Zao wanted to say when I was discouraged, but she also knew that it was unreasonable to be angry with the embroidery girl, so she endured it and didn't say anything.
Finished the morning with the greatest endurance. In the afternoon, Zao Zao began to learn to cook with Tu Pozi.
Teaching cooking naturally starts with identifying condiments. Tu Pozi taught jujube to distinguish salt, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, chili powder, etc., Tu Pozi said: "In terms of dosage, you have to control it yourself." "The amount of stir-fried vegetables is naturally different.
After teaching the basics, Tu Pozi began to teach jujube picking and chopping vegetables. Zao Zao is not a person who comes to reach out and open his mouth, although he has not done this, he has seen it a long time ago, but it is difficult for her, and she learned it quickly. Especially when cutting vegetables, the vegetables are cut so evenly that even the butcher is ashamed of himself.
After studying for an afternoon, Zao Zao said to Tu Pozi: "Let me try it!"
This is something that Tu Pozi likes to see.
As a result, the jujube did not grasp the heat, and the oil was put in and the flames were raised. In a hurry, Zao Zao poured the water in the bowl into the pot, and the fire turned out to be even bigger. Fortunately, the butcher was next to her, and she hurriedly took the lid of the pot and covered the pot. Otherwise, the kitchen will probably burn up.
Zao Zao was not discouraged because of such a small episode, on the contrary, she didn't believe that she couldn't fry a plate of cabbage, and insisted on doing it herself.
In the evening, three dishes were set on the table, charred cabbage, black potato chunks, and fish chunks that looked like a sauce ball. After taking a bite of the jujube, I lost my appetite anymore.
The last dish is egg and shredded meat soup, which is made by Tu Pozi. With the comparison of the previous meals, this soup couldn't be more delicious, and the jujube ate two large bowls of rice with the soup.
After resting for two quarters of an hour, Zao Zao started boxing in the courtyard again. No matter what, as long as she doesn't give up, there is still a chance. If she gave up on herself, the dream could only be a dream.
After punching and taking a bath, Zaojube's stomach growled again: "If there is anything to eat, bring it up." "Jujube dates are eaten four times a day, and they also eat a lot and grow fast.
Xia Zhi said softly: "County Lord, there is only leftover food in the courtyard. "The supper I used to eat was either dumplings or noodle soup, all of which were made by Mother Bai. Since the lock-up, this benefit has naturally disappeared.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. However, the dates have been hungry for four days in a row, and now it is good to have leftovers to eat: "Serve it!" is better than pouring water on a hungry stomach.
From this day on, Zao Zao learned needlework in the morning, cooking in the afternoon, and spent most of the rest of the time on practice. And Liu Er, from the next day, went to the Bishi Courtyard to accompany the jujubes.
After more than half a month like this, I learned a mess of needlework and jujubes, but I learned good cooking skills. At least, those dishes will be eaten.
Liu Er couldn't help but ask Zao Zao this day: "Eldest sister, you are so serious about learning cooking, why are you perfunctory in learning needlework." ”
Zao Zao said: "If you learn cooking skills, you can cook and eat by yourself when you go back to the barracks in the field." Learning needlework, will I still embroider and make clothes by myself in the future?"
Liu Er's eyes widened and she said, "Eldest sister, my mother said that you are not allowed to go back to the barracks." Eldest sister, my mother has always been true to her words, and it is difficult to change what she decides. ”
Zao Zao also knew Yuxi's temperament, but she still clenched her fists and said, "I won't give up." If my mother is not allowed, I will go to beg my father and grandfather. If they still don't agree, then wait until I get married and then go back to the army. ”
Liu Er's lips squirmed, but she didn't persuade jujube anymore: "Sister, then you should learn needlework and cooking skills first." After a while, my mother was discouraged, and I called Ah Hao and they interceded with my father and mother to help you. ”
Speaking of Brother Hao and the triplets, Zao Zao muttered: "Those stinky boys haven't come to see me for more than half a month." It's a shame that I love them so much. After speaking, Zao Zao looked at Liu'er and said, "At the critical moment, you can still rely on Liu'er." ”
Liu Er shook her head and said, "Eldest sister, you can't blame Ah Hao and Ah Rui for this, it's my mother who doesn't allow them to come to see you." As for herself, she naturally got Yuxi's consent.
Thinking of Yuxi, Zao Zao was a little weak: "This time I must be angry." ”
Liu Er said the words that had been buried in her heart for half a month: "Eldest sister, it's not me who said that if it was a girl from someone else's family who did such a thing, she would either marry far away or be sent to the nunnery." Mother just put you under house arrest in the yard, which is already a very light punishment. If you complain about your mother, it will really hurt your mother's heart. ”
Zao Zao asked with some disbelief: "So serious?"
Liu Er said angrily: "Do you think I'm scaring you? Ten years ago, a girl from the Xie family was found to have a private relationship with a scholar, and the girl was then sent to the nunnery by the Xie family, and died within two years. The scholar didn't do well, and died of poverty. Eldest sister, your behavior is more serious than giving it to each other privately. "Privately or secretly, her eldest sister ran to someone's house in broad daylight.
Thinking of this, Liu Er hated iron and steel: "If you really fancy that Wu Jinyu, won't you tell your father and mother well? Father and mother are not that unreasonable person, and they have to do such a thing to break their hearts." ”
Zao Zao lowered his head in shame.
Liu Er was going to say everything from the bottom of her heart this time: "Eldest sister, do you know how many people oppose you to lead the troops to fight, and how much controversy has been caused? But my father and mother resisted the pressure and controversy and insisted on letting you lead the troops. But what about you? How do you do that?"
Jujube is so guilty that he can't burrow into the ground.
Seeing this, Liu Er couldn't say more: "Eldest sister, this incident has happened, and I won't say anything more." But if there is a next time, my father and mother will definitely be cold. ”
Zao Zao raised his head and said, "There will be no next time." ”
Liu Er didn't have much confidence in Zaozao's words: "I hope you can do it! Otherwise, when your father's heart is really cold, they won't care about you anymore, and it will be too late for you to regret it." "If you don't scold or scold and ignore it, that's the most terrible thing.
Zao Zao's heart trembled, and he said, "No, no more." "This is definitely the last time.
Quan Mama said: "Looking at the jujubes, I will not give up the idea of leading troops to fight." "Actually, Mama Quan hopes that Zao Zao will not go to the battlefield again, this battlefield is too dangerous.
Yuxi smiled and said, "She has been determined to become a female general since she was five years old, and if she gives up so easily, it will also be my failure." Over the years, not to mention that Huo Changqing has spent a lot of time and energy in Zaojube, she has been guiding this girl.
Hearing this, Mama Quan shook her head and said, "I thought you really weren't going to let her lead the troops?"
Yuxi said: "This is also a kind of training for her. If she can hold on, I can't stop her. If she can't hold on, she doesn't need me to stop her. ”
Quan Mama said: "I hope Zao Zao can understand your good intentions." Although Yuxi relies on Brother Hao the most, she also spent a lot of effort on jujubes.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Even if you don't understand it now, you can understand it when she becomes a mother herself." Fortunately, the six children are as impetuous as her, and if they were all like her, I would have to live twenty years less. "Zao Zao was hungry for four days, and Yuxi was also anxious for four days.
Quan Mama smiled and said, "So, children are debts! By the way, when are you going to tell them about the Wu family?"
Yuxi said lightly: "There is no hurry in this matter. "A lot of things haven't been figured out yet, and she won't make any decisions before that, let alone make a hasty decision on family matters.
Mama Quan looked at Yuxi's appearance and knew that she had a plan in her heart.
