Chapter 60: The Little Beggar

The next day, before dawn, Starling and Rushan rode to the academy and came back in the evening. Sun Haoran and Xu Liangqi lived in the academy permanently, and Xiaoyu was the only one left in the huge summer house.

It's just that she has a lot of things, and as soon as the starling brothers left, she took Yang Baochen to walk around the old cangtou.

Yang Baochen wanted to leave but couldn't get away at this time, and there was nothing he could do to stay, so he got up early in the morning and followed Xiaoyu dejectedly. The old man couldn't stand it because of the light rain, so he said impatiently: "If the ninth master has any orders, just give them to the old man." ”

Xiaoyu took two steps back, and said embarrassedly: "I want to learn Xidu with the old man." ”

When the old man heard this, he stood up and shouted, "Who are you?"

Yang Baochen was also taken aback, and hurriedly blocked in front of Xiao Yu, he was agile, and in the blink of an eye, half of the matching knife on his body had been pulled out.

"Yesterday's everything, like yesterday's death. Xiaoyu poked his head out behind Yang Baochen and said, "Don't worry, Baochen and I are not people with many mouths. ”

The old man's cloudy eyes showed a bit of murderous aura, and Xiaoyu hurriedly retreated outside the house and waited: "You guys will be careful later, don't break the tables and chairs, there is no money at home now." ”

The old man and Yang Baochen were tense, like two majestic roosters, and when they heard this, they were immediately deflated, and they felt that this day was so boring.

The old man thought that he had no children and no daughters, and he was afraid that he would end up in this house for the rest of his life, so he said weakly to the door: "Whatever you want to learn, I will teach you." ”

Xiaoyu pulled Yang Baochen with a smile and said, "You teach him kung fu, and then teach me to talk about Xidu." What else are you going to do? It's a waste if you don't teach it. ”

Yang Baochen has fought with the Xidu people for many years, killed a lot of Xidu people, and naturally many brothers died in the hands of Xidu people. How was he willing to learn kung fu from the Xidu people, so he stiffened his neck and said, "I don't learn." ”

Xiaoyu looked at the old man and saw that he didn't seem to be willing to teach, so he sighed and said, "Then just teach me Xidu." Turning his head to look at Yang Baochen and shaking his head: "Hmph, don't regret it in the future." ”

The old man sighed, and nodded in agreement. Xiaoyu talked about letting him go to the back to see the flowers and plants. The old man waved his hand impatiently and said, "I know that you are afraid that I will be recognized, and I will not be in the way, and everyone who knows me is dead." ”

Xiaoyu was stunned, smiled wryly, and let him go.

When Mao Zheng, the Song couple moved over with their three children, and there were more belongings than Xiaoyu's. The couple had two sons and a daughter. The eldest son, Da Jiang, was already twelve, so Xiaoyu asked him to follow the old man to spread the word in the gatehouse. The daughter is only eight or nine years old, and because she was born in winter snow, she was named Xiaoxue. Xiaoyu changed her name to Yingxue. In the future, when Xiaoyu was in the house, Yingxue was waiting for her.

Xiaoyu asked them again where the husband and wife were from and how they followed Princess Yi. Knowing that they were servants in the room, he didn't inquire again.

Things in the summer house are really as Xiaoyu said - there are so many things. Song Huanhuan looked at Xiaoyu and held her cheeks, and after thinking for a long time, she turned her head and said to her: "In the past few days, Huanhuan has been walking around the yard, and when I see where it is broken, I will write it down, and when I come back, we will discuss how to repair it together." After speaking, he followed Steward Song out to pick people and went out to open up the wasteland outside the city.

Song Huanhuan thought to herself what kind of errand this was, but she couldn't, so she had to lead her daughter and youngest son around the house for a full day. As soon as Xiaoyu came back, she hurried over: "Girl,"

Xiaoyu waved his hand: "Ninth Master." It's all called the Ninth Master, so I don't have to forget it. ”

Song Huan hesitated for a moment, and then exhaled before continuing: "Ninth Master, this courtyard has not been inhabited for more than half a year, and many places have to be repaired. As she spoke, she took out a crumpled piece of paper from her sleeve: "The main courtyard, the lock on the second door is rusty..." When she finished reading, Xiaoyu said: "There are twenty or thirty here, you leave the list first, and I will consider it again." ”

Song Huanhuan hesitated for a moment, and then handed the list to Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu was dumbfounded when she took it and looked at it, and said for a long time: "Dare to love, Huan Huan is illiterate, it's hard to remember so much for you." ”

Song Huanhuan's face was so red that she could drip blood, Xiaoyu smiled and thought, "This Huanhuan is a good face." As soon as his eyes rolled, he had an idea: "Huan Huan went to Da Jiang and asked him to write a copy for you." Let's go to the courtyard and have a look. ”

Xiaoyu looked at the yard with her hands behind her back. After a while, he saw that there was a place where the paint was mottled, so he said: "Ming'er will take a good look, order carefully, don't leak it again." Song Huanhuan couldn't, so she walked around the house for two days early the next morning.

Every day when Xiaoyu came back, Song Huanhuan was called over and asked, "Today, what did you find?" In the first two days, Song Huanhuan was worried when she saw Xiaoyu, and stammered counting the places in the yard with a piece of paper. Finally, I almost recognized the words, and I spoke smoothly, but when I saw Xiaoyu, I couldn't change the problem of playing drums in my heart.

Xiaoyu went to Lao Cangtou every morning to sit for half an hour, chatted with him about the customs of Xidu, and learned Xidu for a while. So he took Yang Baochen to follow Steward Song to the countryside, sometimes to look at his own land, sometimes to walk around other people's fields, to see what others had planted and how they looked.

When it was almost noon, he went back to the city and followed Yang Baochen around the market to see what was being sold in the market, which ones were selling well and which ones were selling normally. One turn is a small half a day.

Things in the house, Xiaoyu is not in a hurry. If their brother and sister's clothes are dirty, they all wash themselves by themselves, and Xiaoyu found someone who can cook in the long work, and comes over to cook dinner every day.

After turning around like this for a few days, Song Huanhuan became impatient, but Xiaoyu saw that she could recognize the words, so she asked her to write her own list. Where is the needlework room? How many girls, a few embroiderers, and how many needlework cloths to buy. Where is the laundry room, how many little girls do you want, and what things do you need to add? Where is the kitchen, how many cooking utensils do you need, how many girls do you need to burn the fire, all these things have to be written down on paper one by one.

After writing for a few days, Song Huanhuan finally wrote clearly and understood, and Xiaoyu began to delete and change: "Let's have an embroidery girl first, I can make clothes, and I can simply embroider some flowers." Cook, let's have one, there are few people here, let's go to the main house to eat first. If you do the laundry, just find a rough mother-in-law. Well, let's put them in the kitchen of the main courtyard first. Look, what are you going to add to this?"

Song Huanhuan looked at the three pages of paper that she had written, and felt that she had been tricked by this girl.

Song Huanhuan was so angry that she couldn't do her job, and Xiaoyu was not in a hurry, but after a few days, Song Huanhuan, who was used to living a comfortable life in the palace, couldn't stand it first. I had to obediently follow what Xiaoyu said and set a charter.

Xiaoyu picked out the place where the house was to be repaired again, and then took Steward Song out to buy things and hire people to repair the house. After appointing a craftsman to repair the house, Steward Song took his son to supervise the work at home.

Song Huanhuan was able to accompany Xiaoyu to buy girls, and chattered with Xiaoyu all the way: "Let's go this time, first buy four rough mothers-in-law, girls, we have to choose the ones with great strength and honesty." Xiaoyu listened with a smile and nodded.

Song Huanhuan looked at her indifferent appearance, and felt a little angry in her heart, and secretly thought: "Don't blame my girl for being unhappy when she sees the son of the world." This Xia girl, she doesn't have a temper, but it's really not easy for you to screw her. ”

When everything was arranged, Xiaoyu often took Yang Baochen around the market, and when she was tired, she looked for a wine shop and went in to drink.

One day, Xiaoyu was eating in an inconspicuous small wine shop, and saw a little girl named Hanako holding a dirty little girl with a small plate and a bamboo chopsticks in her hand. The little beggar saw Xiaoyu looking at him curiously, and immediately walked over and stood not far away. took the bamboo chopsticks and sang on the small plate: "I am a man with high aspirations, and I have found a wife, Yasaisun Erniang, who stands taller than me, sits longer than me, has bigger feet than me, and has stronger strength than me. ”

The first time Xiao Yu heard someone sing this, the little beggar's voice was crisp and loud, and he couldn't help laughing. The little Hanako saw that she was happy, and immediately bullied her: "Little brother, have mercy on us, give us a copper plate." ”

Xiaoyu was startled, because they were unkempt, Xiaoyu was afraid of being touched by them, so she hurriedly hid back. The little flower child saw that she was scared, and immediately posted it, although Xiaoyu was smart, he was dirty in his heart, and he didn't want to be touched by him, so he didn't act as carelessly. Seeing her like this, the little girl on the side also ran over to block her, and called out pitifully: "Master, reward the two of us for buying steamed buns with copper plates." ”

Yang Baochen hurriedly came over and picked up the two of them and threw them on the street. Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, and the two little flowers were not angry, they got up and patted the soil on their bodies, and walked towards a little daughter-in-law opposite. The little daughter-in-law also thought they were dirty, and she didn't want to be followed by them, so she hurriedly threw a copper plate on the ground. The two of them happily picked it up, went to the steamed bun stall on the side and bought a bun, and the two of them broke it, and it seemed that one was bigger and smaller, and the two of them pushed it up.

Xiaoyu looked interesting and asked Yang Baochen to bring them over: "Okay Baochen, just put it here." You two are standing here, and neither of you is allowed to take a step forward. Xiaoyu squinted at the two of them, pointed at the little beggar and said, "If you dare to take a step forward, I will let him beat your sister." ”

The little beggar originally had an indifferent look on his face, but when he heard this, he immediately widened his eyes and looked at Xiaoyu angrily. It took a long time before she said, "She's not my sister." Seeing Xiaoyu looking at him suspiciously, he smiled proudly: "She is my daughter-in-law." ”R1152
