Chapter 19: October Draft

In the silent night, the moonlight penetrated into the aisle through the crack in the door, like a lamp and a candle, attracting swarms of mosquitoes to fly wildly in the narrow light, and Dai Shuanglin, who was lying in the mosquito net, couldn't help but think of Gu Xiaomin who was far away in Fucheng, and their past that had never gone away, she didn't send it when he left, I don't know if he would be remembered in his heart.

That year was almost this season, the young Dai Shuanglin had been circling around a big stone for half a day, and Gu Xiaomin, who was also following behind him, saw the rise, raised the corners of his eyes, pursed his lips and chuckled, "Sister Lin, let's go play together!" ”

Dai Shuanglin, who looked at the stone side, shook his head and said no, at that time, Dai Shuanglin had to often help Dai Xiangen find different stones, and then think of what kind of objects needed to be carved, "In a few days, there are rattan patterns on this stone, and it will be worthless if it is carved badly", Dai Shuanglin was completely immersed in the world of stones, and did not notice the strangeness in Gu Xiaomin's eyes at all.

Shallow eyebrows and deep eyes staring up, such a Dai Shuanglin made Gu Xiaomin like it in his heart, and he tried his best to pretend to be casual. "I'll help you ......"

"Good ......" Dai Shuanglin nodded, Gu Xiaomin has a good brain, and with his help, he may be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

It's too rare to give Dai Shuanglin who is confused like this, Gu Xiaomin couldn't help but smile, "You have to promise me one thing"

"Good ......" Dai Shuanglin thought that as long as he could carve something good according to the texture of this stone and sell it at a good price, let alone promise one, he could have several pieces.

What did Gu Xiaomin do later?

The soft lips touched, and Dai Shuanglin realized after a while that the bad thing dared to put a sleeve on her step by step, and she was instantly angry.

Gu Xiaomin, who succeeded in the sneak attack, did not run or hide, and let the annoyed and angry Dai Shuanglin punch and kick, until Dai Shuanglin was extremely tired, Gu Xiaomin sighed with satisfaction, "Now I am really your person." ”

Whenever she thinks of this, Dai Shuanglin subconsciously wipes her lips with her hands, and the first kiss of the two lives is exchanged for him being her person, is she a loss or a gain?

In fact, watching grain at night is just a routine, playing a warning role, except for Widow Li's house in Puyang Town, I really haven't heard of anyone who has had grain stolen, so Dai Shuanglin never expected that she would be bumped into a grain thief by her on this night.

The sound of footsteps sounded from far and near, Dai Shuanglin thought that someone was passing by at first, until she found that the footsteps stopped outside her door, and later she even leaned on the crack of the door to peek in, and the tall figure blocked the moonlight outside the door, making the entire aisle instantly dark.

Dai Shuanglin, who got up, held the stick placed next to the pillow, avoided the moonlight and crept out of the mosquito net, flashed behind the door, and prepared to follow Sun's instructions, and when the man started stealing food, she began to shout loudly.

The people outside the door didn't know that there was someone in the door, so they peeked at the crack of the door for a long time before they took out a letter from their bosom and carefully stuffed it through the crack of the door.

Dai Shuanglin knew that she had misunderstood the other party, and wanted to ask out loud, but she felt that this person was really weird, so she could only continue to be muffled by mosquitoes, until the person turned around and left, Dai Shuanglin quickly opened the envelope and looked at the contents of it in the moonlight.

"There are changes in the city, and the October draft".

The faintly scented beige rice paper is simply eight small Juanxiu characters, the handwriting is not Gu Xiaomin's, Gu Xiaomin will not use such expensive paper, this cognition suddenly made Dai Shuanglin dumbfounded, but the Dai family can have a relationship with Fucheng, that is, Gu Xiaomin, so who wrote this letter, and what does this sentence on the letter represent?

There has been a change in Fucheng, is it because Gu Xiaomin was not admitted to Xiucai?

October draft, but as far as Dai Shuanglin knows, the draft is not surprising in this year, people with daughters are eager to draft every year, that is, to go in and be a palace maid, and there is also monthly money and silver to get every month, and when you are old, find a rich second-hand man to marry, which is much better than marrying a hairy boy who doesn't know anything.

I don't know what the person who wrote this letter thinks, by the way, it's the second year of Jingchu, and last year the new emperor didn't select newcomers to enrich the harem, so I think this year I must choose people to enter the palace, and the number will definitely not be less.

The sudden doubts made Dai Shuanglin open the door and look at the figure walking away, that person was going in the direction of South Street, the Gu family lived in South Street, could it be that person Gu Dalang?

Dai Shuanglin wanted to follow to see if the person was going to the Gu family, but when she saw that the person was stalking, she ran with all her strength, and soon there was the sound of horses' hooves clattering from around the corner.

Since there is the sound of horses' hooves, it can't be Gu Dalang, Dai Shuanglin has been sure since then, but the doubts in her heart have become even greater.

"Sister Lin, let's go home and sleep Ang" Dai Shuanglin, who was standing at the entrance of the street, was still guessing the origin of the person, and was pulled home by Sun's good voice and hand, it turned out that Sun beat Widow Li during the day, and he didn't sleep well at night, just after being confused for a while, she heard the sound of her door opening, so frightened that she hurried out to check, and saw Sister Lin standing alone at the street entrance in a daze, scared that Sun's heart was about to jump out, and when she saw that Dai Shuanglin was fine, she tentatively said, "Three watches in the middle of the night, what are you doing when you come out?" ”

"I heard movement just now, so come out and see" Dai Shuanglin quietly put away the letter and explained to Sun the reason why she came out, Sun suppressed his voice and asked Dai Shuanglin again, "Did I tell you that if you have something, you can call someone and you can't open the door...... Why do you think you're so bold? ”

Dai Shuanglin knew that she had violated Sun's taboo, so she hurriedly grabbed Sun's arm and flattered Sun's body and said, "Didn't I forget it in a hurry?" ”

"Okay, I'm here to watch tonight, you go back to the house and sleep with your sister" Sun didn't dare to blame Dai Shuanglin too much in the evening, and after driving Dai Shuanglin back to the house, he went into the house and said to Dai Xiangen, and went to the aisle to guard the food in person.

Dai Shuanglin didn't expect things to pass so easily, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and the kimono lay down and leaned on her sister Dai Shuanghong, but was pushed away by Dai Shuanghong's disgust, Dai Shuanglin had no choice but to hug a pillow and look at the moonlight outside the window in the dark, all night until dawn.

But how did the Sun family let Dai Shuanglin go so easily?

It turned out that Sun didn't see that person, let alone the letter in Dai Shuanglin's hand, so he mistakenly thought that Dai Shuanglin had recruited something dirty, where did he dare to blame Dai Shuanglin according to his usual temper, and only stayed up all night, and the next day after Dai Shuanglin and Brother Xian went out to pick up ears of wheat, Sun quickly took a pile of yellow paper and three sticks of incense, worshiped and worshipped outside the house, and secretly pressed a kitchen knife under Dai Shuanglin's pillow.

When Dai Shuanglin lay down at noon and rested in the afternoon, he accidentally touched the kitchen knife under the pillow, so he was not scared half to death, took the kitchen knife to ask Sun, and was told by Sun, Dai Shuanglin knew that he had been eviled.

At this point, Dai Shuanglin told the things in the letter, not saying that there were changes in the city, only about the October draft.

"Who are you listening to?"

Sun was happy for a moment after hearing this, and said in his heart If one of the two daughters enters the palace, he will have a fixed income, and Sister Hong is saying that everyone will forget it, or let Sister Lin try it?
