"Grandma, get up!" Far away, I shouted at the top of my voice.

No response.

"Auntie, it's on fire!"

Still no movement.

"Ah, the rats have come into your room!"

With a "horn", the door was opened fiercely, Luo Rou was still wearing the water-green skirt from yesterday, with an angry face, her hands crossed her waist, and she didn't care about the image of a girl at all: "What is it called, looking for death?" ”

I said with a smiling face: "Grandma, good morning!" ”

"Okay, you're big, it's too early in the morning, the crows are howling non-stop, can you be okay?"

"Where are the crows? I went to catch it and cooked lunch and vegetables! I shouted loudly, and Luo Rou scolded me for being a crow, of course, I couldn't admit it.

"Hee-" Luo Rou was amused by me, she had a big temper and was easily angry, especially towards me. However, although I often provoke her to thunder, it only takes a little coaxing to melt the iceberg.

I have to say that Luo Rou is very beautiful, although I don't understand my inner feelings at the age of sixteen, but whenever I wake up in the middle of the night, her pretty image will always appear in my mind.

"Say, where did you go last night?" Luo Rou laughed for a while, and asked with a deliberately straight face.

I hurriedly took out the sugar gourd hidden behind my back, carefully peeled one off, and sent it to her with a straight face: "This doesn't mean that I know that my aunt likes to eat sugar gourds, so I didn't go to the street to buy it for you?" ”

Luo Rou snatched the sugar gourd and bit down on it, and said vaguely in her mouth: "Can you buy a sugar gourd and use it all night?" Honestly, you tried to get rid of me, and what bad things did you run away to do? ”

If I don't get rid of you, I can do it, but if I go to the street with you, I'm afraid that half of my silver will be spent before I can walk half the street. Of course, this sentence can only be thought about in my heart, and I dare not say it if I am killed.

"Doesn't that know you're waiting? So I'm going to have to send it to you quickly, and I didn't notice that you didn't catch up. You said that this is the one who buys sugar gourds, and I called it a day after dark and went home, so I ran all over the capital and didn't buy it, and I rode a horse to Tianjin overnight to buy them for you! "In front of Luo Rou, I will also say any unwritten lies, although she won't believe it, but it's fun

"Yo, that's hard work!" Luo Rou said with a smile.

How I looked at it, I thought she was sinister in her smile, and the smile on my face couldn't help but freeze.

Sure enough, my ears fell into the clutches again, but luckily she had a sugar gourd in one hand, otherwise both of my ears would have fallen.

"It hurts...... Auntie, tap it, what I said is true! ”

"Humph! It's not good to make up nonsense, you think I'm stupid? Luo Rou said fiercely.

"God, I swear what I said is true!" Of course, I never believed in God, He gave me such a difficult childhood, I think it would be difficult for me to become a believer in Him.

"When have you ever believed in God?"

Luo Rou actually knows me very well.

"Hey, hey!" My smile was a little twisted, and my ears really hurt: "I've believed in God since I met you!" You think, you are so beautiful and generous, gentle and kind, smart and clever, if it weren't for God's mercy, there would be a fate to meet you! ”

A high hat was sent up, Luo Rou was really happy, and my ears were finally liberated: "Hmph! You're just a sweet mouth. Did you go to see Yu'er and them? ”

"Hey, hey! Didn't I say it, our Miss Luo is the smartest! ”

Monkey, Yu'er and Luo Rou all know each other, although they haven't met a few times, but the monkeys are very grateful to Luo Rou, especially Yu'er, who admires Luo Rou even more, very simply, Luo Rou is not only good at kung fu but also good at reading, which has to make Yu'er admire and envy.

And I was able to understand the three-character scripture from being illiterate to barely able to read it was all the credit of Luo Rou, when she was in class with the teacher, I always accompanied me, I have to say that I am still a little clever, although the teacher has not formally taught me anything, relying on his own cleverness, I have actually learned a lot of words in the past two years. Usually, when Luo Rou is bored, she tortures me to pass the time, forces me to practice, and asks me to memorize poems or something, because of this, I was almost trained by her to be a person who is "both civil and military". I have never taught the monkeys without reservation, and in my shallow consciousness I understand that if you want to get ahead, you will never be able to read and write. Now the monkeys, like me, have basically gotten rid of the title of Wen Ying.

Luo Rou gave me a blank look and didn't say anything more. At that time, I always didn't understand why she, who had been clothed and fed since she was a child, always remembered the string of sugar gourds I owed her.

After a while, a string of sugar gourds was wiped out by Luo Rou. The bamboo stick wearing the sugar gourd was thrown into my hand, and she took out a silk handkerchief embroidered with a plum blossom and wiped her mouth, and said, "Forget it this time, you haven't seen the monkeys for so long, hum!" If you do this again next time, don't blame me for being rude! ”

"I promise there won't be a next time!" I hurriedly made a statement, and then took out the cashew nuts in my arms: "Hehe, grandma, I honor you at this time!" ”

"Something!" Luo Rou was a little curious, and opened the paper bag after speaking.

"Cashews?" Luo Rou saw that the contents were even more strange. There's no way not to be surprised, because my monthly salary is basically to fund the monkeys, and the food and accommodation are in the dart board, and the dart board will send two sets of clothes to everyone in the spring and summer, so I basically don't spend money myself, and I only keep a few pennies on my body at any time, and I can't be generous if I don't have money, so I will only owe her a sugar gourd for a month.

"Nothing to do—not a traitor or a thief, say, what is your plot?"

I pretended to be angry and said, "Hmph, kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, if you don't eat it, I'll eat it myself!" With that, he put the cashew nuts in his arms.

Luo Rou glanced at me, and soon became happy, shouting as she stepped forward to grab it, "Are you still shameless?" Said you would invite me to eat, but what else will you take back? ”

The battle for the defense of cashew nuts ended with my defeat and the cession of land.

This morning, because of the defeat, I had to agree to accompany Luo Rou to practice boxing, in fact, to be her punching bag.

When I was called to lunch with a wound, Luo Rou let it go.

At lunchtime, we were told that the chief dart head had just taken over a job, and Taishi and Right Pillar Guohe Fangxu were transferred to the Tongzhi of Yuanjiang Prefecture in Yunnan Province, and were escorted by our dart bureau to take office.

Of course, the name He Fangxu is no stranger to me who has been in the capital for more than ten years, but he is the position of the Taishi at the head of the Three Princes, and even the first emperor often calls him a teacher. This person was born in martial arts, at the age of forty, he attacked his father and served as the pacification envoy of Jinhua Mansion Tongzhi, in the second year of the attack on the second year of the Bashu Qiang people Beigong often disobeyed the king, instigated the Qiang people to rebel, he claimed to be the descendant of the Qiang Hu people Beigong Boyu who raised troops against the Han in Jincheng at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sichuan, Tibet, Yunnan Province Qiang people, Tibetans, Yi people were bewitched by it, and responded one after another, the rebels were like rainbows, the official army was killed and defeated, and had to withdraw from the three provinces, and the North Palace often had the intention of establishing himself as the king. After the first emperor issued an edict to Zhao'an, he ordered the general of Zhenguo Li Wei to pour the whole country's army to quell the rebellion, and He Fangxu also led his troops to participate in the counterinsurgency. After more than a year of bloody fighting, the rebellion was put down. In this counterinsurgency campaign, He Fangxu's troops were disciplined, brave and tenacious, and He Fangxu himself took the lead and forgot to die, which won Li Wei's appreciation and respect. After the rebellion was quelled, all the generals were rewarded according to their merits, and He Fangxu was promoted from the sixth rank to the rank of lieutenant from the fourth rank to appease the envoy Si Tongzhi. Since then, he has been promoted all the way to the head of the people and ministers - Taishi. He was an honest official all his life, sympathetic to the people, and loyal to the first emperor. It is said that when the first emperor was in power, all political affairs, no matter how big or small, had to be discussed with him first, and only if he nodded before they were implemented.

Of course, I don't understand that only two years after the death of the first emperor, he was demoted from a first-rank member to a fifth-grade official, isn't this from the apex of glory suddenly smashed to the ground? Of course, the five-rank official is also unattainable for me. As for why he was demoted seven or eight levels in a row, we old fritters who are in the capital still know, it's nothing more than that he can't get used to what the current emperor does, and always gives opinions in front of him, and from time to time he uses the first emperor to suppress the emperor. Of course, Emperor Lao Tzu was unhappy, and he wanted to kill him when he first ascended the throne, but first, he was the minister of the first emperor Tuogu, and secondly, although he was not a party in his life, he had a large number of protégés and former officials in the court, which can be said to affect the whole body. Although dissatisfied with him, the emperor had to endure it. Finally endured him for two years, in these two years the emperor was not idle, one bite at a time to clear his power almost, at the moment can no longer bear it, I thought that a will to kill him, and later saw that he was the first emperor to save his name, a piece of order, sent him to Yunnan.

All of the above is gossip heard in the wine shops in the capital, and I really don't know how much credibility it has. I'm just puzzled, why does a court official take office, but he has to be escorted by the dart bureau? This was rare in the past. However, after returning to their hometowns, many Beijing officials asked us to escort them home.

Our Kyushu dart bureau is divided into four teams, each team is led by a deputy chief dart leader, and they all take turns to go out of the task. Since I had just returned from a dart, the fourth team was in charge of this trip. It's just that He Fangxu has a special status, and the head of the dart is afraid that something will happen, so he will draw a strong and experienced dart master from the first, second, and third teams to strengthen to the fourth team. This is also a very common thing, although the team is divided, but the task is prioritized, and it is normal to transfer manpower or even reduce personnel, but the people who are transferred are generally people with very strong martial arts, and I have never been so honored.

When I didn't have a task, I was either bullied by Luo Rou, or I went to find monkeys and Yu'er, and I was in pain and happy.
