166 Spring returns to the earth
Zhu Di turned over in his dream and woke up to the sound of squeezing straw.
He sat up suddenly, and found himself sleeping in a straw pile next to his bed, the spring sun peeping through the crack in the window, teasing his eyelids.
He rubbed his eyes, and the memories of last night that were better than dreams flooded into his mind, Miaoyi who wept and laughed in the wind and rain, Miaoyi who was dreamlike in the bathtub, and Miaoyi who hooked his neck and kissed passionately on the bed......
He swept the simple bed, the futon was scattered, there were traces of someone sleeping, but when he touched the inside of the futon, it was cold, and there was no residual warmth left by the human body.
Is it just a dream?
No, Miaoyi, what about Miaoyi? Zhu Di opened the window, the strong light hit the bedroom, he saw the woman's skirt drying in the yard, and the smoke rising from the kitchen opposite, he knew that last night's beauty was not a dream.
Apart from...... Zhu Di looked at the trap hidden in the grass outside the window, and there were traces of forcibly prying it open.
Last night, when I was in a state of confusion, I suddenly heard a miserable cry from the window!
Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyi woke up like a dream, Zhu Di's face changed, he pulled up the quilt to cover Miaoyi, leaned over and picked up the padded jacket scattered on the ground, he had recently lost weight, the waist of the pants hung on the protruding bones in the crotch, and the curved arc from the waist to the hips was like a ripe and full peach, which made people feel like taking a bite.
He picked up the padded jacket and stood, and a deep pit-like waist socket immediately appeared in the middle of his lower back, but it was only for a moment, he covered his body with a padded jacket, grabbed the firewood knife on the wall and pushed open the window, "Who is it!" ”
In the midst of the thunder and lightning, I saw several people wearing night clothes and hats climbing out of the low courtyard wall, one of them staggered and needed the help of two companions, and the hat on his head fell when he climbed over the courtyard wall, revealing a bald head that was brighter than an oil lamp.
"The monk of Longxing Temple is estimated to be in Jinyiwei's disguise. I came to Fengyang to inquire about your whereabouts, and I overheard that there were suddenly many monks in Longxing Temple who couldn't recite scriptures. Xu Miaoyi also tied her robe, looked at the animal trap outside the window, and the sharp teeth on it still had blood stains, which were quickly cleaned by the heavy rain, "Thanks to this little thing to guard." ”
The "timely appearance" of the Jinyiwei secret agent, the volcano that was about to erupt in the bedroom hit the iceberg head-on, extinguished the flames, and the smoke rising from the fusion of ice and fire was everywhere like embarrassment.
The two looked at each other, then quickly separated, standing side by side in front of the window watching the wind and rain.
Xu Miaoyi lowered her head and pinched her fingers, "It seems that your father still left a favor and sent such people to protect you secretly." ”
Zhu Di watched the torrential rain wash away the traps, "Well, they secretly followed me all the way, and poured a little soup and ginseng soup when I fainted." ”
Xu Miaoyi: "Then tonight...... Your own people hurt your own people. ”
Zhu Di: "They are the emperor's people, not the soldiers of the Yan Wangfu, not their own people, I don't believe them all, I don't want to even be heard by them and reported to the emperor, this trap is used to prevent them from listening to the corner." ”
I just didn't expect it to come in handy so soon!
"If they hear it......" Xu Miaoyi was a little afraid when she thought about it, Emperor Hongwu's eyeliner was everywhere!
"Don't be afraid." Zhu Di took Xu Miaoyi's hand and hugged her into his arms, "I must marry you, we will definitely be together." ”
That night, Xu Miaoyi slept in the bed, Zhu Di moved a few bundles of corn stalks and straw from the kitchen, and the two chatted through the thin bed tent, and fell asleep unconsciously......
After the spring rain, a lot of mushrooms emerged in the mountains and forests, Xu Miaoyi is a doctor, can distinguish those that are poisonous, those that are edible, she picked up half a basket of mushrooms and went home, cut a piece of bacon hanging in the kitchen, and cooked it with the mushrooms, today's breakfast.
Zhu Di drank the fragrant bacon and mushroom soup, "I didn't expect you to be able to cook in addition to boiling medicine and prescribing recipes." ”
Xu Miaoyi picked a piece of meat from the soup bowl and put it into Zhu Di's bowl, and smiled crampedly, "I can only boil water to cook things, so I can eat them, and I can't make cakes and stir-fry or anything." ”
Zhu Di smiled: "It doesn't matter, I'll come." ”
Xu Miaoyi glanced at the farm tools piled up in the corner, "Do you really want to go to the field to farm?" I'm so tired, and my injuries aren't healed yet. Don't worry, I have the skills to heal diseases, and I can support my family when I go there, and I will earn money to support my family in the future, and you can wash clothes, cook, and bring ......"
Originally, Xu Miaoyi wanted to talk about taking children, but thinking of the embarrassment of last night, she hurriedly lowered her head and drank the soup, swallowing the unfinished words and mushrooms together.
The respect of the prince is so depressed that he relies on women to eat soft rice, and Zhu Di is a little sneering. But his future daughter-in-law has the ability, Wen can cure diseases, martial arts can kill thieves, even if he is in the countryside, he can live a good life, Zhu Di feels very lucky, and said:
"Although you can also support your family, but my father's original intention was to send me to Fengyang to cultivate the fields and experience the hardships of his youth, this level can only be passed by myself, I have already tenanted the temple field of Longxing Temple, and the monks of Jinyiwei are staring, and I can't make mistakes."
Thinking of the bald head that was caught by the beast last night and injured its legs, Xu Miaoyi nodded helplessly, "That's right, you can't farm in Fengyang for the rest of your life, after the spring ploughing and autumn harvest, the emperor is discouraged, and he will naturally call you back." ”
Zhu Di struggled a little in his eyes, and after breakfast, Zhu Di cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and pretended to be relaxed: "When do you plan to return to the capital?" ”
Xu Miaoyi looked around at the impoverished thatched house, the grain tank that was about to bottom, and the man with thin cheeks, she patted Zhu Di's face distressedly, "Anyway, it's not now - I went up the mountain to collect medicine, the injury on your back still needs to be treated, there is not even a pharmacy in this poor country, and it takes a whole day to go to Fengyang County to walk the mountain road, and it is not as fast as me to collect medicine." ”
In fact, Xu Miaoyi's private money in her hand can buy the entire village and live a comfortable life as a small landlord with Zhu Di, but the Jinyiwei spy has been staring, and if Emperor Hongwu, a stingy father, knows that Zhu Di gets something for nothing, he will definitely scold him for cheating.
After a spring rain, spring returns to the earth, the ice and snow completely melt, and the peach blossoms that have been holding the pipa and half covering their faces are also willing to come out to show their faces, revealing a pretty powder surface on the branches, and the small thatched hut that reflects the halfway waist of the mountain is like a fairyland.
Zhu Di borrowed the oxen of the chief of Li's family to plow the land, on the condition that he would work hard to plough the field of the chief of Li. He led the oxen to the field to start work, only to find that it was difficult to plow the field that seemed easy.
He held the plow steady, but the ox did not cooperate to move forward, and it was not easy to drive it away with a whip, which provoked the ox, and the seemingly honest ox actually turned around and became angry, shaved his hooves, and rushed towards Zhu Di's lower abdomen with crooked horns!
If it is on the battlefield, Zhu Di can solve the crisis beautifully with a wave of □□ horse.
But this is cultivated land, and in the eyes of the villagers, a cow is worth more than his life, and he will go to jail for killing a cow.
Zhu Di had to dodge and flee in embarrassment, the scalper chased all the way, mooing and exchanging, and the croppers in the field laughed loudly, just like watching a burlesque, and no one went up to help relieve the siege.
It wasn't until the scalpers were tired of running that Zhu Di had a chance to breathe.
The eldest Sun Queen Dani felt sorry for her cattle, she carried a bundle of hay over and fed it to the cattle with her own hands, and Zhu Di was dissatisfied, "You don't know how to plow the field?" Look at your five big and three thick people, you can't even drive cattle, it's really useless. If you run like this again, I won't lend you my cow." Anyway, you're a hunter, and you can support yourself by going up to the mountains to hunt. ”
Man is inferior to cattle.
Zhu Di apologized again and again, Wang Dani saw that his attitude was very sincere, and he was handsome, his heart softened, and said: "Don't underestimate the scalper, it understands human nature, it is not familiar with you, this ploughing is the two of you working together, be kind to it, and it will cooperate with you." ”
Moo! The scalper seemed to understand the little master's words, and while he was busy eating grass, he called at Zhu Di.
This-Zhu Di was immediately stumped, he knew how to move horses, train horses, and cooperate with war horses, but how to get along with scalpers?
Zhu Di humbly asked, "This young lady, how can the cow like me to treat it?" ”
Wang Dani blushed suddenly, "I...... I'm just a village girl, not a young lady, but the daughter of the landlord's family is a young lady. ”
According to Wang Dani's instructions, Zhu Di took some coarse salt from the kitchen at home, sprinkled the coarse salt in the palm of his hand, and let the rough tongue of the scalper lick it.
Zhu Di and the ox ran in until the afternoon, and finally were able to plow out a line of land.
Xu Miaoyi went up the mountain to collect medicine, and at noon, she heard the sound of bells and drums from Longxing Temple. The yellow walls and glazed tiles of the royal temple, the cornices and towers, are extraordinary.
Looking at Longxing Temple, Xu Miaoyi felt a little melancholy: the abbot of Longxing Temple is the first senior monk of the Ming Dynasty, Zhihe Zen Master, and the former father-in-law Daoyan Zen Master is his senior apprentice, so there is some incense between Xu Miaoyi and Zhihe Zen Master. When Xu Da and Chang Yuchun attacked Suzhou City and fought to the death with Zhang Shicheng, the entire Yao family was taken by Dao Yan to the Hangzhou temple where Zhiji Zen Master was located to escape the disaster.
Xu Miaoyi glanced at a Ganoderma lucidum that had just been dug up in the medicine basket, and decided to go to the temple to meet this old man, and by the way, explore the details of the monks and brocade guards in the temple.
When the lightning lit up the night sky last night, there was a secret agent's hat that fell, that face was very familiar, it was Mao Xiang's cronies, called Ji Gang, I had seen it before when I was in Jiushan, it was Ji Gang who discovered the whereabouts of Mingyue......
Xu Miaoyi had just stood at the door of Longxing Temple, and a monk with a slight limp left leg took the initiative to open the door, as if he had been waiting for her for a long time, it was Ji Gang.
Xu Miaoyi didn't poke it, and said, "I want to see wisdom and Zen master." ”
Ji Gang invited her in with a sad face, and said: "Zhiji Zen Master is treating distinguished guests, I, the poor monk's leg is injured, please ask Dr. Xu to help take a look, there is not even a serious doctor in this poor place, ouch, it hurts me to death." ”
Xu Miaoyi only felt funny, "This is the price of listening to the wall." ”
Ji Gang cried, "I can't help myself when I am ordered, and my subordinates haven't heard anything." Doctor Xu, you have excellent medical skills, help me treat my leg, I will rely on this leg to eat, the guy who mixes rice is gone, I will beg for food in the future. 166 Reading Network
