The two hundred and first returned to Beijing
When Huangfu Yongning went out, he was a man and a horse, except for the dagger in the whip boots around his waist, and when he came back, there was not only a small burden on the horse's back, but also a simple board car made by Huangfu Yongning improvised behind the horse, and there was a giant snake with a black background gold flower that was the thickness of a bucket and seven or eight zhang long. She rushed all the way to Haichengyi and scared passers-by along the way.
"Huang ...... Yellow...... Yellow...... Little brother...... This is? Yi Cheng heard the commotion outside, and hurriedly went out to check, he saw the giant snake coiled on the cart, still wriggling, his tongue was knotted, and he couldn't even say a word.
"It's okay, I just went up the mountain and caught a snake to make up for my brother." Huangfu Yongning said lightly, and the shocked Yicheng's heart was about to jump out of his throat.
"This ...... This...... The snake is ...... ...... alive," Yi Cheng stammered.
"That's right...... Oh, it's okay, don't be afraid, the mouth of the snake has been sealed by me, be honest......" Huangfu Yongning saw that there was no one on Yi Cheng's frightened face, and smashed his fist into the head of the giant snake, the one that had lived for hundreds of years, faintly opened up its mind, and the alien snake with almost invulnerable snake skin was smashed unconscious, and the huge snake body no longer had a trace of wriggling.
Yi Cheng was almost frightened crazy, he couldn't stand steadily, so he had to stick to the pillars beside him, and said in a trembling voice: "Huang ...... Yellow...... Little brother, this snake ...... Yes...... Do you want to kill it first? "Such a giant snake that was smashed and fainted and could wake up at any time was in his Haicheng Station, and when he thought of this fact, Yi Cheng hated to die when his legs were stretched out.
"Kill it? Wait a minute, you can help me take a look first, I'll go upstairs and ask......" Huangfu Yongning dropped a sentence, dragged her brother's burden and ran upstairs, and when the Yicheng heard this, his eyes rolled and he collapsed to the ground.
Huangfu Yongning was surprised to "......", she herself was not afraid of this giant snake, and she didn't expect ordinary people to be afraid, she picked up Yicheng with one hand, shook it at will, and called in her mouth: "Yicheng, what's wrong with you?" ”
Yicheng, who had fainted, was shaken awake and looked at Huangfu Yongning's tears, "Brother Huang, do you spare the villain...... The villain is timid...... I'm really scared of ......"
Huangfu Yongning put Yi Cheng down, and looked at the lively door on weekdays except for Yi Cheng and her, not to mention people, not even a dog, she couldn't help scratching her head depressedly, and shouted upward: "General......"
Huangfu Jingde was talking to his son, when he heard his daughter's voice outside, he smiled and said to his son: "It's your sister who is back, Yong'an, you are so resting, dad go out to have a look." Huangfu Yongan smiled and nodded yes, and Huangfu Jingde walked out quickly.
"Ah Huang, this ...... What's going on? Huangfu Jingde saw that there was no one downstairs suddenly, and he was a little surprised, so he flew downstairs and walked out of the door, when he saw the giant snake coiled on the simple cart, he was really surprised, such a huge poisonous snake, he was also the first time in his life to see.
"This stinky snake scared Ah An fell down the mountain, I caught it to give Ah An a breath, you go and ask Ah An what he wants to do with this snake, by the way, this snake is alive, but I knocked it out." Huangfu Yongning smiled and spoke, his tone was extremely light, as if he was saying that he had just bought some snacks for Huangfu Yongan.
Huangfu Jingde really took this daughter, who was born with divine power, and was raised by a tiger for a few years, and had no choice but to smile wryly and nodded, and hurriedly went back upstairs to talk to his son.
After a while, Huangfu Jingde came back, and he said: "This snake is useful all over the body, and it is inconvenient to deal with it now, so bring it back to Beijing." You watch it, don't wake him up and hurt someone. ”
When Yi Cheng, whose legs trembled, heard this, his eyes rolled in fright and fainted. The voice of the conversation between Huangfu Jingde's father and daughter was not small, and almost all the guests staying at the inn heard it, and they were afraid and angry when they heard this, and those who were a little more bold immediately hid in the room and shouted loudly.
"How can you do this, what if you put such a big live snake in the post station and hurt someone......
"Yicheng, hurry them away......"
"Yes, get them away......"
Huangfu Jingde's face was a little gloomy, he thought about it and said in a high voice: "I have disturbed you, I will order my subordinates to take strict care of this snake, and immediately go to procure the carriage, as soon as we buy the carriage, we will set off immediately, and we will not stop more." ”
As soon as Huangfu Jingde's words fell, a trembling voice sounded: "This ...... Sir, I have a carriage here, and I am willing to sell it to you, can you go at once? ”
When Huangfu Yongning heard this, he immediately shouted in a rough voice: "We have to ask for two carriages, do you have one?" ”
The trembling voice said in frustration, "I...... I only have one carriage. ”
"I ...... I also have a carriage to sell to you. Another voice rang out.
Huangfu Jingde shouted: "This is just right, two gentlemen with carriages, please come down and talk." ”
After a long while, two middle-aged men dressed as merchants moved in front of Huangfu Jingde step by step, both of them were as earth-colored as they looked, and they were obviously frightened.
"Where is the carriage of the two of you, can you show us around?" Huangfu Jingde spoke to the two people in the most amiable tone, but the two of them were still terrified, just because Huangfu Yongning caught a snake, and even Huangfu Jingde became a monster in the eyes of those guests.
"First...... Mr...... My carriage is brand new...... I bought it before I went out...... The first time I used it, it cost a total of seventy taels of silver with the horse and cart......" The person who spoke later peeked at Huangfu Jingde's face and said boldly.
Hearing the man beside him speak, the first merchant to open his mouth spoke. "Sir, the villain's carriage is sixty percent new, it is the carriage of Datongfang in the capital, you give forty taels of silver, and even the carriage and horses are driven away." The merchant gritted his teeth and offered the price, and secretly felt distressed. The carriage in Datongfang in the capital is the most durable, a brand new carriage costs a hundred taels of silver, even if it is sixty percent of the new carriage, how can it be worth sixty or seventy taels, the price he drives is obviously low.
Huangfu Jingde didn't answer a word, but said: "Ah Huang, you are guarding here, two gentlemen, take me to see your carriage." ”
The two merchants nodded in response, and led Huangfu Jingde to the backyard to see the carriage, Huangfu Jingde looked at it, and knew it in his heart, and only said to the two merchants: "Your brand-new carriage is worth fifty taels of silver at most, but your forty taels is too little, I will pay seventy taels, you can see that it can be made, if it is okay, I will pay immediately." ”
The owner of the Chase Fang carriage was overjoyed, and only nodded desperately: "Okay, sir, you know the goods, you are a good person......
Another merchant was full of red, very embarrassed, his carriage is brand new and good, but the carriage of the horse is not a good horse, the carriage is only the most ordinary poplar board, he bought this carriage only spent forty-five taels of silver, just thinking that Huangfu Jingde does not know the goods, can make a small profit, do not want Huangfu Jingde is a scholar, at a glance to see through, so that he is very embarrassed.
"Sir...... You pressed the price too hard, and I bought it back for seventy taels of silver in this carriage...... "That merchant doesn't give up, and wants to fight for it again."
"Fifty taels, if you want, I will pay the silver immediately to pick up the car, if you don't want it, forget it, this gentleman, I bought your carriage, this is a silver ticket, and you can collect your points." Huangfu Jingde hated profiteers the most, and when he saw that merchant bargaining, his face sank, and he only took out the silver ticket from his bosom and counted out seventy taels and handed it to another merchant.
The merchant happily accepted it, immediately unloaded his personal belongings from the car, and then ran to Huangfu Jingde and said, "Thank you, sir, this carriage belongs to you." ”
Huangfu Jingde nodded lightly, turned around and went back to the post station with the merchant. The other merchant was in a hurry, and he called out hurriedly, "Sir, and my carriage......"
Huangfu Jingde didn't look back, but only raised his voice and said: "Fifty taels of silver, you sell it and pack up your things, if you don't sell it, I won't force it." ”
"Hey, Mr. Ren is a scholar, just your carriage, the top of the sky is only fifty taels of silver, this person, can't be too dark-hearted......" A few travelers who were lying on the window and looked out shouted, for them, as long as Huangfu Jingde and his party were willing to leave immediately, even if it was a carriage upside down, not to mention that this carriage was not their carriage. So it screamed louder.
The merchant's face turned blue and white for a while, and he said with a sad face, "Fifty taels of silver...... Bought for you. ”
When Huangfu Jingde heard this, he turned around, watched the merchant take his things from the carriage, and then paid the silver.
The two merchants took the money and hurried back to their rooms. Huangfu Jingde drove the two carriages to the front of the post station, and asked Huangfu Yongning to receive the snake for fifty taels of silver to buy the carriage, although the quality of the carriage is not very good, but it is big enough, if you change to an ordinary carriage, then the big snake can not be stuffed in.
Huangfu Yongning made up another punch on the snake's head, then picked up the snake's tail and shook it vigorously, taking off the bones of the giant snake, and then used the snake's tail to tie the snake's mouth tightly, and used her steel wire whip to tightly strangle the seven inches of the giant snake, so that even if the snake woke up halfway, it couldn't do anything.
After dealing with the giant snake, Huangfu Yongning stuffed the paralyzed giant snake into the carriage, filling almost all the space in the carriage.
When Huangfu Yongning was dealing with the snake, Huangfu Jingde went upstairs and told his son about the downstairs, saying that they had to get up and go back to Beijing immediately. ”
Huangfu Jingde shook his head and said, "Yongning doesn't need help there, and our luggage is simple." ”
Gongsun Yuanniang hurriedly said: "Uncle Huangfu, I'll help you pack your luggage." Huangfu Jingde nodded and said: "Yuan Niang, there is no time for you to rest, you can rest in the carriage when you turn back and go on the road." ”
Gongsun Yuanniang said with a smile while packing her luggage: "Uncle, don't worry about me, I'm in good spirits, and I can help you take care of Brother Yongan." Speaking of the second half of the sentence, Gongsun Yuanniang glanced at Huangfu Yongan quickly, and two red glows flew on her face.
The luggage was quickly packed and stopped, Gongsun Yuanniang ran downstairs with her burden on her back, found the Yicheng who woke up and said: "Yicheng, I want to buy a few quilts, do you have a soft new quilt here?" ”
The post man said again and again: "Yes, I don't know how many beds the girl wants?" ”
Gongsun Yuanniang took out a gold coin and handed it to Yicheng, saying, "Six beds, this is the silver to buy the bedding." Yi Cheng was very happy, and said again and again: "Okay, the villain will go and get it." "His daughter is going to get married this year, and his daughter-in-law made six new bedding for her daughter, which just meets the requirements of Gongsun Yuanniang.
Yicheng soon took the bedding, Gongsun Yuanniang spread all the five bedding down, leaving only one bed for Huangfu Yong'an, she just laid out the carriage, Huangfu Jingde carried the burden and carried his son downstairs.
Seeing that the carriage was covered with extremely thick new bedding, Huangfu Jingde smiled at Gongsun Yuanniang: "It's still thoughtful." ”
Gongsun Yuanniang's face turned red, she glanced at Huangfu Yong'an, lowered her head and whispered: "This is what a little girl should do." ”
Huangfu Jingde and his entourage of four people, three horses and two carriages quickly left Haichengyi and drove in the direction of Yanjing City. They didn't know that more than an hour after they left Haichengyi, Du Yao, who had saved Huangfu Yong'an, found Haichengyi and inquired about a handsome boy surnamed Jiang with a broken leg without a trace.
Naturally, the son surnamed Jiang, who was extremely handsome and had a broken leg, could not be inquired about in Haichengyi, but the merchant who sold the carriage for fifty taels of silver was not angry, and he quietly told Du Yao that it was a son with a broken leg who had just been taken into the carriage and went to the direction of the capital. The merchant also said that the man with the broken leg was accompanied by a middle-aged man, a scary young man with great strength, and a very good-looking official lady.
When Du Yao heard the news, she couldn't help but secretly guess in her heart that it must be the young man with great strength who touched her house, knocked out their mother and daughter, and rescued Jiang Gongzi. If it were an ordinary person, it would be over. Du Yao has some adventures, and she thinks that she is the heroine, and the handsome Jiang Gongzi is the heroine she is destined to be, so she has to toss a lot of turmoil.
Let's say that Huangfu Jingde and his entourage left Haichengyi and went to Yanjing City, because Huangfu Yongan's broken leg could not withstand the bumps, so the speed of their trip was extremely slow, and they only walked more than 40 miles in half a day. When the sky was dark, this group of people was on the official road in the field without a shop in front of the village, Huangfu Jingde looked around, and decisively decided to find a place to camp near the official road.
Drive the carriage down the official road and camp in a leeward place with a hillside behind and a stream in front. Gongsun Yuanniang is still camping in the wild for the first time, she sees everything fresh and tight, like a small tail closely followed Huangfu Yongning, saying that it is a hand, in fact, it is not enough to wrap up, but Huangfu Yongning is not annoyed, Gongsun Yuanniang asked what she answered, and unconsciously taught Gongsun Yuanniang a lot of knowledge of survival in the wild.
"Sister Yongning, did you say that Ah Hei is nearby at this time?" Gongsun Yuanniang thought of something and said something, and I didn't know how to suddenly think of Ah Hei, so she asked with a smile.
"It should be nearby, that thing never wants to be too far away from me......" Huangfu Yongning said as he made a long whistle to call for Hei, if Hei was nearby, it would definitely come quickly.
Just when Huangfu Yongning took Gongsun Yuanniang to set up a tent, Huangfu Jingde had already picked up a lot of dry firewood and lit a bonfire. Huangfu Yongan took out the dry food bought at Haichengyi, and only roasted it on the fire to deal with a dinner.
"Yongning, guard the camp, dad go and see if there are any wild things to hunt a few back." Huangfu Jingde said a word, got up and walked to the mountains and forests not far away. It's just that before he took more than a dozen steps, Ah Hei rushed over with a roe deer in his mouth. As soon as it saw Huangfu Jingde, it flew into the air and pounced.
Huangfu Jingde took two steps back and hugged Ah Hei, took the roe deer in Ah Hei's mouth with his hand, and praised with a smile: "Ah Hei is really capable!" ”
When Ah Hei heard that he was praised, he immediately writhed around on Huangfu Jingde's body, and his eyes were straight when he saw Gongsun Yuanniang, this Ah Hei was simply more weird than a person.
Ah Hei was crooked on Huangfu Jingde's body for a while, and then jumped to Huangfu Yongning with a stupid roe deer in his mouth, that's right, it was jumped, Gongsun Yuanniang saw Ah Hei jumping and jumping like a child, only laughing crookedly on Huangfu Yongning's body, and his stomach hurt without a mouth......
Huangfu Yongning has long been accustomed to the extremely coquettish Ah Hei, only holding the huge tiger head for a long time and rubbing, the kneaded Ah Hei's hair all over his body is messy, then let go of Ah Hei, picked up the stupid roe deer and went to the stream to slaughter and clean.
Huangfu Yongning had a wealth of experience in slaughtering and cleaning wild animals, but in a quarter of an hour, she cleaned the stupid roe deer and put it on the bonfire with a stick.
Huangfu sat quietly by the bonfire, looking at his father who was smiling at him and his sister, and then looking at his sister who turned over and roasted roe deer from time to time, his heart was full of happiness, although there was a cold wind blowing at this time, he felt as warm as three springs.
Gongsun Yuanniang sat beside Huangfu Yongan, she tilted her head and looked at Huangfu Yongan, her little face was red by the bonfire, and she looked very good-looking. "Brother Yong'an, if you reunite with Uncle Huangfu, you will stay in the capital and not leave, right?" Gongsun Yuanniang spoke with a red face, and there was a trace of inexplicable nervousness in her voice.
Huangfu Yongan said with a smile: "I finally found my father and sister, of course I won't leave." When Gongsun Yuanniang heard this, her little face became more and more red, but at this time the bonfire was in full swing, and it was not easy to see.
A burst of barbecue burnt aroma penetrated everyone's noses, and Huangfu Yongning said loudly: "It's baked, it's ready to eat." Ah Hei, who was lying on the side, lazily pulling the weeds on the ground, jumped up when he heard this, and stared at the golden and fragrant roasted roe deer without blinking, and the elder of the halazira on the side of his mouth.
Huangfu Yongning didn't pay attention to the anxious Ah Hei, she quickly cut off three pieces of tender and fat roe deer meat with a dagger, and divided them among her father, brother and Gongsun Yuanniang. Then divide the remaining roe deer into two pieces, one large and one small, and hang the large one to let the wind cool down before giving it to Hei. Ah Hei took a bite of the roasted roe deer, lay on the grass and ate it beautifully.
Seeing Ah Hei eat it, Huangfu Yongning cut off a roe deer leg and gnawed it quickly.
Huangfu Yongning's barbecue technique can be called a must, Huangfu Yongan is very happy to eat, but a pillar of incense time, a large piece of the most tender and fatty roe deer meat is eaten cleanly.
Gongsun Yuanniang also felt that this roasted roe deer meat was extremely delicious, but she was personally managed by her mother since she was a child, and she would never eat meat in a big gulp.
"Brother Yong'an, you eat." Seeing that Huangfu Yongan finished eating, Gongsun Yuanniang immediately gave up her barbecue.
Huangfu Yongan waved his hand and said: "No, there are still on the shelf, it's cold, you eat more." ”
Gongsun Yuanniang shook her head, forced the meat into the hands of Huangfu Yongan, and said that she was full. Huangfu Yongan was not polite, took the meat and chewed it again.
After eating a sumptuous dinner, Huangfu Yongning took out the medicine jar to her brother to boil medicine, Gongsun Yuanniang hurriedly snatched the medicine jar away, guarding the bonfire to boil the medicine, not long after, the bitter medicine gradually emitted out, Gongsun Yuanniang adjusted the height of the medicine jar from time to time, so as not to burn the medicine too much. Looking at Gongsun Yuanniang's unskilled but unusually serious boiling medicine, Huangfu Yongan and Huangfu Yongning didn't think much about it, but Huangfu Jingde was thoughtful, thinking that after returning to Beijing, he would have a good discussion with Gongsun Sheng.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning everyone got up and washed briefly, Huangfu Yongning was about to make some breakfast, but saw Gongsun Yuanniang holding the medicine jar with a red face and said: "Uncle Huangfu, I cooked porridge with roe deer bones and dry food, and you and Yong'an's brother Yongning and sister Yongning will eat some." My mother said that I must eat some soup in the morning to make my stomach comfortable. ”
Huangfu Jingde smiled and praised: "Yuan Niang is really a good child, I originally said that I could only be outside for two days, thank you for your hard work." Gongsun Yuanniang blushed and said that this is what she should do, and then divided the bone porridge in the medicine jar into the wooden bowl that Huangfu Yongning had cut into wood last night, and sent it to everyone.
Huangfu Yongan smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Yuanniang." Gongsun Yuanniang's face became more and more harmful, she had always been cool, she lowered her head and couldn't say a complete sentence, and Huangfu Yongning was very surprised.
"Yuan Niang, are you uncomfortable?" Huangfu Yongning asked with concern.
"No, no...... I'm fine, I'm going to wash the jar. Gongsun Yuanniang said in a low voice, and quickly ran to the stream with the medicine jar in her hand.
After breakfast, Huangfu Jingde and his entourage continued their journey back to Beijing. Along the way, most of them slept in the wild, because there are three existences with extremely rich experience in wild life, such as Huangfu Jingde, Huangfu Yongning and Ah Hei, so sleeping in the wild is not only hard for them, but also adds a lot of fun. Even Huangfu Yong'an, who had experience in surviving in the wild, felt that he was not as many wild things as his father and his sister knew all day long, and many things that he could not think of could be turned into excellent delicacy in the hands of the father and daughter.
Not to mention Gongsun Yuanniang, she has never had such a fresh, rich and exciting day in her life, this trip back to Beijing, so that Gongsun Yuanniang secretly made up her mind, she wants her to live so happily on her birthday in the future, and never be a depressed day that is locked in the inner courtyard of the deep house, guarding a man, competing with a group of women, and not being free for life.
Huangfu Jingde and his entourage returned to the capital, it was already the thirteenth day of the first month, and there were two days before the Lantern Festival.
At noon on the thirteenth day of the first month, in the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion, Qi Jinghuan finally saw Huangfu Yongning, who had been separated from him for ten days, and Huangfu Yongan, who had not been seen for several months. As soon as he saw Huangfu Yongning, there was no one else in his eyes, and he immediately rushed towards Huangfu Yongning, "A-Ning, you are back, I want to kill you......" Like a milk swallow throwing into the forest, Qi Jinghuan rushed straight to Huangfu Yongning.
"Ah Huan......" Huangfu Yongning shouted, stretched out his arms and hugged Qi Jinghuan, Qi Jinghuan hugged Huangfu Yongning's waist tightly, put his head on her neck, desperately sniffed the unique faint grass fragrance of Huangfu Yongning, and suddenly felt that his life was complete.
This time out of Beijing, Huangfu Yongning would think of Qi Jinghuan from time to time, and was used to Qi Jinghuan talking around every day. So as soon as she saw Qi Jinghuan rushing over, Huangfu Yongning's instinctive reaction was to be happy and happy, she was used to hugging Ah Hei again, and she didn't feel that it was inappropriate to hug Qi Jinghuan like this in front of her father, her brother and Gongsun Yuanniang.
Gongsun Yuanniang's eyes were straight, and then her face was flushed, but she was a little more shy than the two main protagonists of Huangfu Yongning and Qi Jinghuan, and she only lowered her head and didn't dare to look at people. Huangfu Jingde's face is not very good-looking, although he has long accepted Qi Jinghuan as a son-in-law in his heart and likes him very much. But no father can watch others take advantage of his daughter and be indifferent. Huangfu Yongan's expression was a little strange, and he didn't know what was going on in his head, and a smile that could be called obscene suddenly appeared on his face.
"Ahem...... cough ......" Huangfu Jingde deliberately coughed a few times, but did not wake up the pair of little mandarin ducks who were happy to reunite, or Huangfu Yongan said in a teasing tone: "I said sister and brother-in-law, can you let go first?" It's never too late to hug when there's no one around! ”
"Why should no one be able to hug it?" Huangfu Yongning turned her head violently, staring at her brother with a pair of phoenix eyes, and asked very knowledgeably.
"Ah...... This ...... "self-proclaimed eloquent, the chicken, flying and dog jumping of the huge ghost doctor valley, the emperor Yong'an was speechless when he was asked, and could only look at his father with condemning eyes, as if asking: "Dad, how did you teach your sister?" ”
Huangfu Jingde's face was gloomy, and he called out with a thin anger: "Huan'er! ”
After Qi Jinghuan hugged his sweetheart, his reason was completely returned, his jade face was red, and he naturally had a delicate and weak style, so he only bowed and whispered timidly: "Father-in-law, it is the son-in-law who is excited and forgetful when he sees A-Ning, please forgive my father-in-law." ”
Huangfu Yongning frowned and looked at her father, she didn't understand that her father was suddenly angry for Mao, she didn't do anything wrong, what's wrong with hugging, she didn't hug Ah Hei a few times one day. I never saw her father unhappy before.
Huangfu Jingde looked at his daughter with a reasonable face, and then looked at his son-in-law who was pretending to be pitiful, and couldn't help but sigh long, he also had nothing to say. The great defense of men and women that the world values so much does not exist for these two children. Besides, to put it bluntly, how the two of them get along is a private matter, and even he, the father, doesn't say much.
"Pay attention to the occasion in the future." Huangfu Jingde finally held back such a sentence, and the matter was over.
"Yuan Niang, go to your Yongning sister's yard to rest first, Uncle has already sent someone to send a letter to your father, and he will come over in a while." Huangfu Jingde said another sentence, which made Gongsun Yuanniang, who was originally with his head down, raise his head violently, and his eyes were full of worry.
Huangfu Yongning patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, go and rest first, the sky won't fall." Gongsun Yuanniang replied sullenly, bowed and retreated, and walked towards Ninghu Garden alone.
"Yong'an, dad will go back and write an excerpt and send it to the palace to show the emperor, so that you can restore your identity as soon as possible." Huangfu Jingde said to his son that this was something he had wanted to do for a long time.
Huangfu Yongan replied with a smile: "My son listens to my father, but my son's leg injury will not recover until three months later, and my son will not be able to enter the palace with you the day after tomorrow." ”
Qi Jinghuan listened and said: "It doesn't matter, Ah An only recuperates at home, and doesn't have to worry about other things." Huangfu Yongning nodded again and again, indicating that he also meant the same.
"By the way, father-in-law, Ah An has returned to his ancestors, do you still plan to let him wear a mask all the time?" Qi Jinghuan remembered something and hurriedly asked.
Huangfu Jingde hesitated, and Huangfu Yongning said: "Dad, according to me, you don't need to wear masks, and our brothers and sisters are not unpopular." "For his father to wear a mask all the time, Huangfu Yongning has naturally always complied with it, but no matter how delicate and breathable the mask is, it can't compare to the original skin, and Huangfu Yongning doesn't want to wear a mask for a long time.
Listening to his daughter's words, Huangfu Jingde was sad for a while, and immediately said: "Okay, then don't wear a mask, my Huangfu Jingde's sons and daughters are worthy of the sky, and they are not afraid of others, why can't they show their true faces." ”
As soon as Huangfu Yongan heard this, he immediately reached out to remove the mask on his face, Qi Jinghuan looked at him curiously, and his eyes couldn't help but straighten. He asked himself that he was the first-class handsome person in Yanjing City, but compared with the Huangfu Yongan in front of him, he was still slightly inferior.
"Ah......h In the end, the begging in Qi Jinghuan's tone was too obvious, which made Huangfu Yongning's hand froze and asked in confusion: "Why?" ”
"Aning, can you not ask why, according to me this time?" Qi Jinghuan looked at Huangfu Yongning's eyes fixedly, and pleaded again.
Huangfu Jingde thought that her daughter would ask to the end, but Huangfu Yongning didn't, she just answered "OK" sullenly, and didn't ask again. Seeing that his daughter was obedient to Qi Jinghuan, Huangfu Jingde's old heart and liver of being a father-in-law were not a taste again. However, he didn't let his emotions overflow, but nodded and said, "What Huan'er said is, Yongning, dad also means this." ”
Huangfu Yongning looked stunned, nodded heavily, and said, "I know Dad, I won't remove the mask in advance." ”
Huangfu Yongan also thought of something, he took the mask in his hand and said, "Then I will also wear it, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Huangfu Jingde shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, you have an injury on your leg, and you can't go out for a while, so you don't need to wear a mask, and when your leg is healed, you will be asked to be crowned a son for your father, Huan'er doesn't have to urge, and when the emperor approves it, it's almost time for Huan'er and Yongning's wedding." ”
Huangfu Yongan nodded and said, "I listen to my father." ”
When Huangfu Jingde's father and son were talking, Qi Jinghuan's affectionate eyes kept looking at Huangfu Yongning, and his eyes were full of apologies. Huangfu Yongning laughed, stepped forward and took Qi Jinghuan's hand and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it, why don't you wear it for a few more months, it's okay." Actually, that's good, at least we won't be recognized if we sneak out the door. ”
"Yongning!" When Huangfu Jingde heard his daughter's words, he couldn't help but scream in a deep voice, these two children are really getting more and more excessive, even if they sneak out of the house in private, they still have to talk about the bright side, so how can he turn a blind eye.
Huangfu Yongning smiled, took Qi Jinghuan's hand and said, "Dad, do you have anything else, if it's okay, Ah Huan and I will go to play with Ah Hei." ”
"What's the hurry, it's not too late to deal with that snake while it's alive." Huangfu Jingde said with a black face, the tossed half-dead giant snake will die if it is not dealt with, his son can say, the snake has to be taken alive to take the gall and take the poison and peel the skin, if it is dead and then dealt with, it will lose the effect of the medicine.
"Oh, got it." Huangfu Yongning happily agreed, and still pulled Qi Jinghuan out, and said as he walked: "Ah Huan, let me tell you, I went out this time to catch a big snake that is seven or eight zhang long, but it is thick, my brother said that the snake's skin is invulnerable, and it is the most suitable for soft armor, and I will peel off the skin and make a ...... for you."
"Really, A-Ning, you take me to see that snake, I promise not to make trouble......" Qi Jinghuan thought of his sweetheart thinking about himself everywhere, and his heart was bubbling with beauty, thanks to his lack of a long tail, otherwise he would have to break his tail.
Huangfu Yongning was stunned, she didn't think that Qi Jinghuan would be afraid of the giant snake at all, and the two happily held hands and went to see the giant snake.
"This ...... This is the serpent...... It's big...... It's all like this and you're not dead yet? Seeing the paralyzed giant snake in front of him, Qi Jinghuan was really taken aback and asked in surprise.
"Well, I'm not dead, I'm measured. Ah Huan, you stand farther away, I'll deal with this broken snake first, it's this broken snake that caused Ah An to break his leg, if I don't skin and debone it, it won't be considered revenge for Ah An. Huangfu Yongning rolled up his sleeves and pointed to the snake.
If the giant snake knew that because it had today, it wouldn't have said anything to grab the Vermilion Peak Seven Star Orchid with Huangfu Yong'an, without the Zhu Ding Seven Star Orchid, how many mouthfuls of delicious food would it have, but now it can't even save its life.
What is called Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover, it is Qi Jinghuan, it is obviously a very cruel thing to slaughter a live snake, but Qi Jinghuan can't see it at all, he only has the heroic Huangfu Yongning in his eyes, look at how fast she is as fast as the wind, how steady and fast she is, how exquisite the knife technique is, and how chic and neat her body is, it is really handsome...... Qi Jinghuan stared at Huangfu Yongning with good eyes, his eyes were full of admiration and admiration, and he completely lost the reason and judgment standard of a normal person.
After two quarters of an hour, Huangfu Yongning finished decomposing the giant snake, she put away all the snake teeth, snake gall snakes, poisonous snakes, blood snake skins, and then pointed to the large pile of white snake meat and said: "Ah Huan, I'll roast snake meat and stew snake soup for you when you go back, and keep it fresh You can swallow your tongue." ”
"Okay, okay, A-Ning, I like to eat whatever you do!" Qi Jinghuan shouted happily, full of joy.
"Whew......" Ah Hei, who had been depressed for a long time lying on the side, really couldn't stand the "bad guy who has no brains and is still competing with it for favor", and howled depressedly.
Qi Jinghuan couldn't be more familiar with Ah Hei now, I saw him lean on Ah Hei, pulled one of Ah Hei's front paws and rubbed it, and said in his mouth: "Ah Hei, don't be red-eyed, you think about how big my belly is, how big your belly is, in the end, it's not all for you to eat, good, let's not make trouble, I'll take you to Xishan to find a beautiful tigress." ”
Ah Hei gasped angrily, and he had to try his best to put away the nails on his paws, so as not to scratch Qi Jinghuan's white and soft hands. Not only that, Ah Hei also deliberately lay down to ensure that Qi Jinghuan, who was becoming less and less in the shape of the prince, was completely lying on his body and would not be invaded by the cool air on the ground.
"Ah Huan, you are playing tricks on Ah Hei again!" Huangfu Yongning sneered, and did not mean to blame Qi Jinghuan in his words, Qi Jinghuan smiled, rubbed his head on Ah Hei's chest, and said unashamedly: "Ah Hei likes me!" ”
Qi Jinghuan is "bullying" Ah Hei and can't speak. If Hei could speak, he would have jumped up and shouted, "The ghost likes you as a white chicken!" There is no meat on the soft stomach! I bah...... If it weren't for my family's A-Ning liking you, I wouldn't have been able to bear you! It's just a pity that no matter how smart Ah Hei is, he is also a beast who can't speak, and he can only be "bullied" by Qi Jinghuan in vain.
Although he couldn't speak, Ah Hei still rolled his eyes fiercely and said that he despised Qi Jinghuan very much, but Qi Jinghuan only had Huangfu Yongning in his eyes, and Ah Hei's white eyes were destined to be white.
After Huangfu Yongning finished dealing with the giant snake, he sent the snake skin, snake, blood, snake tooth snake, poisonous snake gallbladder to Baicao Garden, and Huangfu Yongning saw that Qi Jinghuan was also coming, and said with a smile: "Ah Huan, you are much bolder now, and you dare to even kill the snake." A-Ning, bring the snake gall bladder. ”
Huangfu Yongning brought the snake gall to Huangfu Yongan, Huangfu Yongan looked at the green snake gall, nodded again and again: "A Ning, this snake is really caught, Ah Huan, you are also a coincidence." With that, he put the snake gall into the sweet white porcelain bowl in front of him, took out a few bottles of potion and poured it in, only to hear the sound of "...... swish", with this swishing sound, the bloody breath that originally permeated the room gradually faded, and a cool fragrance rose.
"A'an, what smells so good?" Huangfu Yongning asked in surprise, and Qi Jinghuan also nodded in agreement.
"A-Ning, go and ask Dad, be sure to come over within a quarter of an hour." Huangfu Yongan smiled and didn't answer, just sent his sister. Huangfu Yongning answered and ran out quickly, but at tea time, she pulled her father back.
Huangfu Yongan saw that his father, sister, brother-in-law and Ah Hei had arrived, so he poured out the liquid in the sweet white porcelain bowl that was as green as blue and had a cool aroma, and he poured four cups, leaving a small half in the sea bowl. "Dad, Ah Ning, Ah Huan, you guys have a drink by yourself, Ah Hei, this bowl is yours, you have to drink it all." Huangfu Yongan said to everyone.
Everyone drank the liquid in the bowl without any discount, Huangfu Yongning drank it the fastest, and tasted it back after drinking: "It's cool and cool, it tastes really good, A'an, what is this?" ”
Huangfu Yongan explained with a smile: "This is the elixir that I have prepared that is invincible, from now on, the four of us, as well as Ah Hei, no matter what poison can harm us." ”
Huangfu Jingde knew that his son's medical skills were extremely good, and he smiled with relief: "That's really good, it's just a pity that my father eats this, and he should keep it for A'an's daughter-in-law in the future." ”
Huangfu Yongningjun's face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "Dad, this medicine has to be prepared and taken while it is fresh, otherwise it will lose its effect, if there is no A-Ning, I can't match it even if I know the prescription." That's why I said just now that this is a coincidence, and we should have this chance. Huangfu Jingde nodded at this time, and no longer said anything like pity.
"A-Ning, these two snake teeth will be given to you when I deal with them, and you can either make a dagger or a thorn. It's inconvenient to use without a handle, and it's hard for you to use such an uncomfortable snake tooth, and you can still peel the snake skin so cleanly. The snake skin will be used to make soft armor after I have processed it, and then soaked it in snake blood for seven days and seven nights, it will be soft as silk and invulnerable, and it is most suitable for personal wear. Huangfu Yongan said with a smile.
Huangfu Jingde looked at a pair of the world's most outstanding children in front of him, full of pride, the hardships he experienced in his life were all worth it at this time, with such a pair of children, Huangfu Jingde at this time was extremely grateful to God.
"Master Hou, General Gongsun is here." Huangfu Jingde was thinking about it, when a notice came from the courtyard, Huangfu Jingde immediately said in a loud voice: "I know, please ask General Gongsun to go to Yuchengxuan for tea, and Benhou will go immediately." ”
"Dad, I'll go with you to see Uncle Gongsun." As soon as Huangfu Yongning heard that Gongsun Sheng was coming, he immediately jumped up and said. Walking with Gongsun Yuanniang all the way, Huangfu Yongning liked Gongsun Yuanniang more and more, and couldn't help but want to stand up for her more and more.
"It's none of your business, you are here to talk to Yongan Ahuan." Huangfu Jingde said angrily, pulled his legs and left.
Qi Jinghuan hurriedly got up and said, "Father-in-law stays." ”
Huangfu Jingde looked back at his son-in-law in surprise and asked, "Huan'er, what's the matter with you?" ”
Qi Jinghuan took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to his father-in-law, bowed down and said, "Father-in-law, can you read this letter first and then go to see General Gongsun?" ”
Huangfu Jingde took the letter suspiciously, opened it, and took out the letterhead to read it carefully. This look didn't matter, Huangfu Jingde's face immediately darkened like the bottom of a pot, and he said angrily: "What a well-dressed beast with a beast's heart!" Huan'er, thank you for your hard work, thank you for your father and General Gongsun! With that, Huangfu Jingde grabbed the letter and strode out.
Huangfu Yongning can probably guess what is going on, but Huangfu Yongan is confused, after all, it involves Gongsun Yuanniang's lifelong event, Huangfu Jingde restrained his daughter, and no one told Huangfu Yongan why Gongsun Yuanniang would go with them. And Huangfu Yongan didn't think much about it, but said that his father and sister were willing to take Gongsun Yuanniang, so he didn't ask too much.
"Ah Huan, what happened, why is my father so angry? What's the matter with Uncle Gongsun? Huangfu Yongan asked suspiciously.
"This ...... A Ning ......, "Qi Jinghuan looked at Huangfu Yongning, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Huangfu Yongning's eyes rolled, and he lowered his voice and said: "A'an, in fact, there is nothing that can't be said about this matter, that is, Aunt Gongsun wants to marry Yuan Niang to her nephew, and Yuan Niang will not agree to die, so I will let Ah Huan help investigate Aunt Gongsun's nephew, Ah Huan, did you show my father the results of the investigation just now?" ”
Qi Jinghuan nodded and responded: "Exactly, I asked them to secretly investigate, and found that Jiang Wei'an was really a beast with a human face and a beast's heart, and this family affair must not be settled." ”
Just as Qi Jinghuan was speaking, Huangfu Jingde took the letter to see Gongsun Sheng, Gongsun Sheng saw Huangfu Jingde walking in, and immediately got up to greet him, his face was gloomy, and he didn't smile at all.
"Ah Sheng, don't speak, I'll talk about it after reading this." Huangfu Jingde stretched out his hand and handed the letter over.
Gongsun Sheng frowned and took the letter, his face changed greatly at a glance, and the green tendons on his neck burst out. "Brother Huangfu, is this all true?" Gongsun Sheng asked in a rough voice.
Huangfu Jingde nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, this is what I arranged for someone to investigate secretly before I left Beijing, the news is conclusive, Ah Sheng, you can't ruin Yuan Niang's life!" ”
"Brother Huangfu, I'm ...... I ......" Gongsun Sheng's face turned from blue to red, he was speechless, he only hated himself for listening to his wife's words, and secretly resented Huangfu Jingde in his heart, but Huangfu Jingde didn't care at all, and he was still sincere to himself and his children.
"Ah Sheng, don't say anything, as long as it's for the good of the children, we can do anything, you said that we are all this age, and all we hope for is the good life of the children, right? Come, let's sit down and talk. Huangfu Jingde patted Gongsun Sheng on the shoulder and pulled him into the room to sit down.
Sitting down and pouring a cup of tea, Gongsun Sheng let out a long breath and said ashamedly: "Brother Huangfu, thank you very much, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I would ...... Yuan Niang, this kid has caused you trouble......"
Huangfu Jingde waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, Yuan Niang is a good boy, and she has helped us a lot along the way." ”
Gongsun Sheng hurriedly asked, "I found Yong'an, why didn't this kid come back on time?" ”
Huangfu Jingde briefly said what had happened, and Gongsun Sheng quickly stood up and said: "Yong'an injured his leg, where is he, take me to see this child." ”
Huangfu Jingde said with a smile: "He is in Baicao Garden, if he hadn't injured his leg, he would have come to greet you, where is the reason for you to go to see him." Ah Sheng, these are trivial matters, Yuan Niang's affairs are important, I will be the master, before this matter is resolved, let Yuan Niang live with me, just with Yongning as a companion, and say everything in the past. Gongsun Sheng was silent for a moment and nodded in response.
