Chapter 871: Reward
The bearded man rolled his eyes, this is really a young master who doesn't understand the suffering of the people.
Dong Ruyi said: "I'm afraid that the inn has been requisitioned by the government a long time ago, and today I'm afraid that I will really bother Brother Hu." ”
The bearded man waved his hand and said: "What is not bothering, I often come to my house, and my mother-in-law is used to it." Besides, our general has never treated us as outsiders, you are his younger brother, that is, my Lao Hu's younger brother. ”
In this way, Dong Ruyi and his entourage followed the bearded man to his house.
When the group saw the bearded five big earthen houses, everyone had only one question, that is, did they live in a dozen people?
Not to mention that they need to rest, even sixteen horses need to rest in sheltered from the wind.
The bearded man pointed to the east and said: "The east is for you to live, and the west is the stable, don't look at my family, it's not a problem to live in more than 20 people." ”
Xiao Ruide was completely dumbfounded, the east chamber is for guests to live, and the west chamber is a stable, who built a house like this?
Dong Ruyi's eyelids jumped wildly, and the words "Datongpu" appeared in her mind.
Sure enough, when Dong Ruyi, Dong Shijie, Xiao Ruide and Ding Xiang followed the bearded man into the first room in the East Wing, a big pit of ten people appeared in front of the three of them.
Zhang Feng didn't enter the house, he took the two of them to take a quick look at the surrounding environment, while the rest of the people led the horse to the stable that was supposed to be the west wing.
Xiao Ruide pointed to the kang and exclaimed, "You won't let us all sleep here, right?" ”
Dong Ruyi kicked Xiao Ruide, "Some live and pick." ”
Xiao Ruide hurriedly looked at the bearded man, and he immediately changed his words, "It's okay if there are more people, it's warm." ”
The bearded man smiled: "I didn't let a dozen of you sleep in one place, there is another one next door." He didn't hear Xiao Ruide's dislike at all, he thought that Xiao Ruide was talking about too many people to sleep.
Dong Ruyi said: "Dong Wat has thanked Brother Hu in advance, without Brother Hu's help, I will sleep on the streets today." ”
The bearded man said embarrassedly: "You're welcome, you're welcome, I'm sorry to be too polite." The well is in the courtyard, and the younger brothers can use it as they please. ”
The bearded man was really not polite to them, and he yawned and went back to the main room.
Xiao Ruide looked around, and in addition to this big kang, there was only one stove and a table without a fire in the room.
He picked up the iron kettle sitting on the stove and said speechlessly, "The water in it is already frozen." ”
Dong Shijie muttered: "This Northern Xinjiang person is really cool. He said and sat down on the kang, but immediately stood up, "My God, this kang is as cold as the ground outside." ”
Dong Ruyi was teased, "Okay, there is no quilt on the bed, it will be over if you spread it thicker." And you..."
She pointed to the cloves wiping the kang, "Don't be busy, none of them are clean after a day of tossing." ”
Dong Ruyi said and waved his hand to signal Lilac to go out with her.
When the two walked to the door, Dong Ruyi said in a low voice: "Tomorrow, I will find an opportunity to pass on the matter of Taicheng to my nursing brother." If it is true, let the Chen family remove him, and it will not affect others. ”
Lilac said in a low voice: "Yes, the slave will do it tomorrow." Childe waited, and the slave and maid came back immediately after making a basin of water. ”
Dong Ruyi nodded, he couldn't take a bath, even if he washed his face.
Lilac looked into the courtyard by the moonlight, and she had to find the well that the bearded man had said first.
Zhang Feng walked over, "Everything is normal, Sone can rest in peace." ”
Dong Ruyi said: "Zhang Feng, you take them to the next room to rest, this is in the city, just leave two people on duty for the night." ”
Zhang Feng said: "Your subordinates can sleep in the stable." He had just checked, and in addition to the main house where Hu Yi's family of three lived, there were only two wings on the east side. Dong Ruyi and Ding Xiang are women, so naturally it is not good to live with Xiao Ruide and Dong Shijie.
Dong Ruyi waved his hand: "No need, do as I say." ”
Zhang Feng bowed: "Yes." ”
He didn't know how Dong Ruyi would rest tonight, but he was grateful in his heart for this arrangement. He and his brothers really needed a good two-day rest.
Dong Ruyi turned around and saw Lilac standing by the well in a daze, she walked over, "Didn't you say you wanted to fetch water?" ”
Ding Xiang looked at Dong Ruyi, "Childe, this well is frozen." She said and threw the bucket down, and there was no sound of water, only the sound of the bucket hitting the ice.
Dong Ruyi burst out laughing, "Go back to the house and sleep." "This is the first time she has come to northern Xinjiang, and it is also the first time she has seen a frozen well, and at this moment let her think of a way, she would rather just stay overnight.
Zhang Feng heard the conversation between Dong Ruyi's master and servant, and his heart was full of feelings. You must know that Dong Ruyi is favored in the palace, and all the food is the best. Now she not only has to sleep on the big kang, but she doesn't even have a washing water.
He doesn't understand Dong Ruyi, what is this for?
Along the way, Xiao Ruide has complained, and Dong Shijie has also complained, but Dong Ruyi only frowned at most.
Zhang Feng said in his heart: "Which one is her?" Is it the one in the palace who doesn't live in the east study without a warm jade shop? Or is it the one who is now tossing himself as a man? ”
"Big brother, the stables are cleaned up. It's still the old rule, the brothers sleep with their horses in their arms. "On such a day, if you don't sleep with a horse in your arms, you will freeze to death.
Zhang Feng looked at the courtyard, where the brothers were standing in a neat row. He stepped forward and lowered his voice: "This son-in-law will reward us for sleeping in the house." ”
Hearing this, everyone laughed, and there was no better reward in this hellish place than sleeping in a house.
Zhang Feng continued: "Leave two people on duty all night, change them once every half an hour, and no one is allowed to be lazy." ”
Without any orders, two men went into the stables, and they did not dare to go up to the roof, so that the adobe house would not be trampled down by them again.
The remaining nine followed Zhang Feng into the next room.
Zhang Feng lit the stove, and went to the yard to pick up firewood, he said in his heart: "I don't know if the kang in the little prince's house has burned, and the prince and the prince have no orders." ”
A few people fell asleep, and the kang became hot.
When Dong Ruyi entered the house, Xiao Ruide and Dong Shijie had already closed their eyes.
Lilac whispered: "This kang is also big, and the young lady sleeps in it." ”
Dong Ruyi nodded, she changed into a pair of clean shoes, and then went to the kang.
Dong Ruyi said: "It's so cool." ”
Lilac took Dong Ruyi's fox fur, and then spread it on the kang, "Childe sleeps on this." ”
Dong Ruyi looked at the two people on the side, Xiao Ruide and Dong Shijie were lying on their sides back to back, "These two people have gone down like this, Lilac, bring their fox fur over, they will catch a cold if they sleep like this." ”
Lilac covered Xiao Ruide and Dong Shijie with cloaks, and then covered the quilts on the kang to the two of them.
Lilac muttered in her heart: "How long has this quilt not been washed?" ”
She took her fox fur, "Son, use the slave's!" ”
Dong Ruyi took the lilac's fox fur, "Come up, let's squeeze it and get warmer." ”
