Chapter 105: Back to the capital
Nothing special happened along the way, and finally returned to Beijing after nearly eight years of absence when the first snow arrived. γNetγ
Tian Yunxin and Xiaoxuan went to the capital for the first time, and they felt fresh and curious about everything, and accompanied them to the overpass to see the juggling, ate the famous roast duck, and accompanied them with large bags of snacks from Yongding Gate to Fuchengmen, and then to Desheng Gate, and finally to Chaoyangmen, the sky has gradually darkened, of course, Luo Rou's sugar gourd cannot be missing on the way.
The light snow that had been falling since entering the city has not stopped until now, and the streets, alleys, rooftops, and treetops have been pressed with a thin layer of snow, and the capital has become a white world in a day. Xiaoxuan's young heart, seeing the snow accumulated is very happy, I actually want to build a snowman on the street, I grabbed her, said: "There is not much snow today, it is not good to build a snowman, wait for a few days, it will be colder, big brother will accompany you to build a snowman, okay?" β
Xiao Xuan nodded obediently, and a group of four walked down the street, ready to find an inn to settle down.
Originally, I planned to go to the city to find the monkey and Xue'er, but with Tian Yunxin and Xiaoxuan, a day passed unconsciously, and I have been away from the monkey for seven or eight years, and I don't know if they still live in the same place, or live first, and go to them tomorrow!
The capital is the richest place in the world, and you can't see an inn without leaving a hundred zhang.
After being welcomed in by the enthusiastic guy, he ordered a few specialties in the guy's mouth, and asked him to prepare two upper rooms.
Half a cup of tea, and the dishes are already small.
"Guest officer, you see it's snowing this day, do you want to come to the altar to warm up your body?" The guy asked, after putting down his meal.
I looked at Tian Yunxin and Luo Rou, the two of them were noncommittal, it was all up to me to make up my mind. "Alright! Give us half a catty of bamboo leaves. "The two girls don't drink very much, although I drink a lot, but I don't drink well, just drink a little bit, as for Xiaoxuan, she was directly filtered by me, she is still young and can't drink.
The man said hello and turned to leave, bringing a jug of wine and four glasses in a short time.
Xiao Xuan took the flask, first poured me a glass, then poured a glass for Tian Yunxin and Luo Rou respectively, and finally poured it into the fourth cup.
I asked, "Xiaoxuan, do you want to drink?" β
Xiao Xuan looked at me with some concern, and hurriedly said, "Big brother doesn't like Xiao Xuan drinking?" Then Xiaoxuan won't drink it. β
I shook my head and said, "No, it's just that the eldest brother thinks that Xiaoxuan is still young, and she shouldn't be the age to drink!" β
Xiao Xuan straightened her chest and said, "Xiao Xuan is not young, Xiao Xuan will be sixteen years old soon, and some girls in the village are not as old as Xiao Xuan, they are all mothers!" β
"Really?" I said subconsciously.
Xiao Xuan nodded affirmatively: "Yes, there are several, I also said that I would find a mother-in-law after the New Year, who ......" Speaking of this, Xiao Xuan thought of the sad past again, and her eyes were red and she couldn't go on.
Tian Yun pulled Xiao Xuan into her arms in distress and comforted: "Okay, Xiao Xuan, it's all over, you still have us!" β
Xiao Xuan rubbed her little nose, smiled lightly, and said, "Yes, Xiao Xuan still has Sister Tian, Sister Rou, and Big Brother!" β
Luo Rou was afraid that Xiao Xuan would think of something unhappy again, and said, "Since Xiao Xuan wants to drink, then drink it, it's okay, Xiao Xuan is a big girl!" β
Xiao Xuan's face flushed slightly, and said, "No, Xiao Xuan's big brother won't like it when he drinks, Xiao Xuan won't drink anymore!" β
My heart moved, and said: "It's okay, if Xiaoxuan can drink, drink it, you see Sister Tian Yun and Sister Rou also drink, and the big brother still likes them the same!" He said in his heart: "I love and cherish you, but they are unforgettable love." β
Xiao Xuan smiled: "Really? Does Big Brother like Xiaoxuan too? β
"Of course!" I touched Xiaoxuan's little head and said, "Sister Xiaoxuan is so cute, of course my big brother likes it!" β
Xiao Xuan lowered her head, a little shy, and didn't dare to say more.
After Tian Yunxin poured a glass for Xiaoxuan, the wine jug had bottomed out.
Everyone had a great time at the meal. After dinner, after shopping all day during the day, everyone was a little tired, so they went back to their rooms to rest.
Following.
Stretch your waist and get up from the bed, put on your clothes and push open the door, and you can see Xiao Xuan, who is red with a cold face, standing outside the door with something for washing. Xiao Xuan saw the door open, and said happily: "Big brother, you're awake!" β
I hurriedly pulled her into the house, put the things in her hand on the table, pulled her into my arms, rubbed her flushed face, and got cold, I don't know how long she had been standing outside.
"Didn't you say that? You're my sister, not my little girl! I said distressedly.
Xiao Xuan sneezed and said, "But Xiao Xuan doesn't know anything, all Xiao Xuan can do and want to do is take care of her big brother, this is Xiao Xuan's wish." β
I hugged Xiao Xuan, grabbed her almost frozen little hand and put it inside my clothes, and there was an icy chill from the flesh, and I couldn't help but shiver.
Xiao Xuan's face turned red, but she didn't pull her hand out, and lowered her head and said, "Big brother, you're so cold, you'll catch a cold!" β
I reached out and gently scratched her little nose: 'Do you feel sorry for your big brother's cold, and won't your big brother feel sorry for you?' β
Xiao Xuan wordlessly leaned her head on my chest and said, "Big brother, you are so good to Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan is so happy!" β
After a while, Xiaoxuan embarrassedly left my arms, and her hand was pulled out of my clothes, only to hear her "Alas! screamed, and said: "The water is cold, I'll fight again, big brother, you wait!" β
Saying that, I picked up the basin and was about to leave, so I hurriedly grabbed her: "Xiaoxuan, the eldest brother should take care of you, don't think about repaying the favor, don't serve me in the future, the eldest brother will take care of himself." β
Xiao Xuan smiled sweetly and said, "But this is what Xiao Xuan likes to do!" With that, he broke free of my hand and went out. I shook my head with a slight headache.
After a while, Xiaoxuan walked in with a basin of hot water.
Seeing what I still wanted to say, Xiao Xuan smiled slyly and said, "Big brother, you better wash your face first, if the water is cold for a while, Xiao Xuan will have to fight again!" β
I could only shake my head and wash up with her help.
Seeing that Xiaoxuan was about to leave with a basin of water, I grabbed her again and said, "Xiaoxuan, you have to take care of the eldest brother in the future, and the eldest brother has no objection, but you can't stay in front of the eldest brother's door early in the morning like today, do you know?" These two days are still good, but when it gets cold in a few days, even your nose will freeze off? Xiaoxuan, who doesn't have a nose, doesn't like it with his big brother, you know? You have to promise the big brother, otherwise the big brother won't want you to take care of it in the future! β
Xiao Xuan said happily: "Really? β
"Of course it's true, you have to be obedient, otherwise the big brother will really ignore you in the future!" I said with a blank face, but I didn't understand what she was happy about? Could it be that I drove her away and hit her arms, no, it can't be.
Xiao Xuan smiled and shook her head: "No, Xiao Xuan is saying that someone will really have their nose frozen?" β
I was stunned, this little girl still cared about this, and said with some tears and laughter: "Of course! β
Xiao Xuan didn't say anything more, squeaked and walked out the door.
I shouted from behind, "Hey, you haven't promised me yet?" β
Xiao Xuan turned her head, for some reason, looking at her smiling like a flower, I suddenly remembered a word: amorous.
I only heard Xiao Xuan smile and said: "Big brother's words, how could Xiao Xuan not listen!" With that, he left with a pleasant smile and left.
At breakfast, I told Tian Yunxin and the three of us that today I asked Xiaorou to accompany Xin'er and Xiaoxuan to go shopping, and I went to find a few friends. Unexpectedly, the three girls unanimously objected and wanted to go with me.
I thought of a lot of words of dissuasion, but under the words of the three women, I couldn't even say a word, so I had to respond.
Yesterday, when I returned to the capital after a few years, I was a little excited, and I was a little "showy" to play around with Tian Yunxin and Xiaoxuan, and my attention was almost all attracted by the three girls, and I didn't care so much about other things. Today's mood is a little calmer, and the display is finished, walking on the street with a normal heart, only to find that the whole capital is filled with joy, I don't know what to do. It's not the New Year, it's more than two months before the New Year!
stopped an uncle who was picking vegetables and said, "This uncle, may I ask, what happened in this capital?" Why is everyone so happy? β
The uncle was a little old, his ears were a little back, and he looked at me incomprehensibly: "Huh? β
I raised my voice and said it again, this time the uncle understood it, smiled and said, "Little brother, you're not from the capital, right?" β
I shook my head and said, "I grew up in the capital since I was a child, but I traveled abroad for the past two years and only came back yesterday. β
The uncle smiled and said, "No wonder you are strange. At the beginning of the year, the Annamite invaded our country, and I heard that they had killed many people and spoiled many girls in the south. Later, the emperor ordered the army to let the military department Zuo Shilang Kang lead the troops to Ping'annan, I heard that a total of millions of troops, hundreds of generals, thousands of cannons, fought for more than half a year, and finally defeated the Annan people, killed millions of Annan people, and even the capital was ......occupied by them," the uncle said foamingly.
There is an element of exaggeration in the uncle's words, I don't know if the court deliberately exaggerated the number of people going out, or Kang Yan exaggerated the results of the battle when reporting the military situation, but the matter is understood. It turned out that the good news of Annam's victory in the First World War reached the capital, and it was no wonder that everyone in the streets and alleys was elated.
Although Kang Yan can't teach for the time being, he has already sent him back to the capital with 800 miles of victory, more than ten days earlier than our group. After the emperor knew that he had won, he ordered the whole city to celebrate together, and each man in the capital was given a pot of wine, ten catties of meat, and ten catties of rice, and the rest of the old, young, and women were halved.
