Chapter Twenty-Nine: Going North to Find a Husband
Yao Yanyu returned to her room with an angry mood and the pleasure of revenge, picked up the pen and wrote a nearly 1,000-word recital. Then carefully revised it, and copied it neatly, and after checking that there were no improprieties and clerical errors, Fang sealed it and sent it to the palace.
It was already afternoon Shen Shi who survived this rush, and she didn't eat lunch, so Fang felt hungry at this time, so she rubbed her stomach and prepared to go home in advance.
After leaving the door of the Chinese Medicine Hall, he still climbed on Tao Yao's back, gently patted Tao Yao's neck, and said gently: "Tao Yao, I'm so hungry, let's go quickly." ”
Tao Yao shook her head and snorted, and walked in the direction of home with her hooves, and sure enough, she was much faster than usual. Cuiwei and Cuiping will have to wait a while to return, and Yao Yanyu is only followed by Du Sanniang and Wei Zhang's few family members who have chosen for herself.
The street was covered with thick snow, and a narrow road was swept outside the entrance of the Chinese Medical Center. Farther afield, there is no cleaning. The horseshoe prints and wheels pressed the snow firmly, and the horses' hooves rubbed a little slippery. But Tao Yao is a famous horse, and this little thing is nothing to it at all.
All the way home, someone came out of the gate and grabbed the reins of the horse, and Yao Yan jumped off the horse's back neatly. When he raised his eyes, he saw a person rushing out of the gate and running in front of him, and he knelt on the ground: "Please girl." ”
"Spear?" Yao Yanyu looked at the person kneeling in front of him in surprise, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull him up, "Why are you here?" But what's going on in the house? ”
"Girl, the slave heard about my general, and the slave doesn't believe it......" said the spear, his voice choked a little.
"Don't cry!" Yao Yanyu shouted in a deep voice: "Your general will be fine!" ”
"Yes." The spear took a deep breath and did not dare to cry again.
"If you have something to say, go and talk." Yao Yanyu glanced at the two people behind the spear, these two people she also knew, they were the stewards of Weizhang's mansion.
The group followed Yao Yanyu into the courtyard and went directly to the main hall. Yao Yanyu didn't change her official robe, and went directly to the chair to sit down. Then raise your hand so that the spear sits as well.
The spear bowed and sat down on the drum bench below.
At this time, the maid at home had already come up with fragrant tea and snacks, Yao Yanyu took the tea and took a sip first, and then said to the spear: "If you have anything to say, you can say it directly." ”
"The girl doesn't know that my general is brave and good at fighting, and the idlers are not his opponents. But this time...... "The spear is really bottomless this time." This news has been circulating for two days, and there is no movement on it, so it seems to be true.
"It's going to be okay this time." Yao Yanyu took another sip of tea and said firmly.
"Yes." The spear hurriedly agreed, thought for a while, and said, "When the general left, he once explained to the minions. He is not in Beijing, and the small things in the general's mansion are handled by the slaves, and he must come to the girl to discuss the big things and ask the girl to take ideas. ”
Yao Yanyu asked, "So what?" What's wrong with you? ”
"The slave wants to go to Ganzhou to find the general, but he is worried that there is no one in the house to take care of him. Moreover, although the general of our family is alone, there are still a few distant brothers in the clan, and these people are not doing very well, and if the slave leaves, there will be no one to take care of the huge mansion over there...... The slave thought, please ask the girl and Master Yao to take care of it on their behalf. ”
Yao Yanyu shook her head when she heard this, and said, "This matter is not appropriate. Even if you take someone to Ganzhou, how can you find your general? Why don't you go back and arrange things at home? Naganzhou went more than 700 miles, and it was not a day or two to arrive. How to get there? Are you ready for the entanglement on the road? It's snowy, it's so cold, what if there is no inn to stay in? You take care of all these things, and I'll look for you in two days. ”
"Huh? That...... Did the girl agree? Spear was a little dazed, and he couldn't understand what his family's wife-to-be meant.
"I have already given the emperor a lesson, please personally escort this batch of frostbite ointment and some antidote pills and trauma medicine, so you prepare, if the emperor approves it, come with me." There were more than 600 domestic slaves in the general's mansion, except for the old and weak women and children, the young family members were divided into two, half stayed to guard the family business, and the other half went north with me. ”
"Yes!" As soon as the spear heard this, his blood immediately boiled.
The general of his family is really good-looking, and he has found a lady who values love and righteousness! Only such a lady is worthy of his general, and he is also worthy of the general's mansion to follow with all his heart, even if he is full of blood, he will not regret it.
The spear took the two stewards and kowtowed three times to Yao Yanyu solemnly, and then said goodbye and left.
Yao Yanyi came back a little late in the evening, and Ning Shi saw that he was tired, so he hurriedly asked Jinhuan to serve ginseng soup, and personally served him to change his robe, and asked with concern: "Is there something that is not going well?" ”
Yao Yanyi shook his head and said, "No." I just made a detour to the Guogong Mansion after I came back from the yamen. ”
Ning asked in confusion: "Go to the Guogong Mansion?" What's wrong? ”
"Yan Yu has to go to Ganzhou. And it's already on the script, I'm afraid the emperor will agree to it. ”
"Oh my God!" Ning sighed helplessly, "What do our two sisters want to do?" But it's useless for you to go to the Guogong Mansion for this matter! Can the grandfather of that country still influence the emperor's thoughts? ”
"Grandpa Guo naturally can't help it." Yao Yanyi smiled helplessly, "I just want to ask Grandpa Guo for help, if the emperor really agrees to Yan Yu going north, I want to let the elite soldiers under his old man help escort Yan Yu." That girl's temperament, this thing can't be stopped! That's all I can think of. ”
Ning sighed: "What the second master said is true. In fact, the second sister is indeed a rarity. In this world, there are many icing on the cake, and there are few charcoal in the snow. If something like this happened to General Wei, if he changed to a girl from another family, he was afraid that he would be looking for death and life in addition to crying. But our second sister has such ambition. ”
Yao Yanyi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I hope that she will cry for a while and pass this matter." ”
Ning also smiled bitterly.
For a while, the maid brought the old ginseng chicken soup to Yao Yanyi to drink, and Ning suddenly said: "If the emperor really approves the second sister to go to Ganzhou, then I have to prepare a few more big hairy clothes for her." ”
"What's more, Cuiwei Cuiping, the two girls and Du Sanniang have to prepare, if the second sister goes, these people must follow."
"What the master said is that no matter how strong the second sister is, there must be no less people around to serve." As Ning spoke, he called someone to find Mama Feng and asked her to open the warehouse overnight to find the existing warm clothes at home.
Yao Yanyi expected it well.
The next morning, the emperor took out Yao Yanyu's share of the recital, and praised Yao Yanyu for asking for his life to go to Ganzhou, saying that if all the men of the Dayun Dynasty can be like the daughters of the Yao family, why can't Dayun return to the heart of all countries to come to the court? !
Therefore, the emperor promoted the title of Yao Zhubo by one level, and allowed her to select the available people from the sixty-nine medical women in her hospital to take them to Ganzhou to contribute to the army.
Yao Yanyu was promoted from the position of the fifth-grade master to the fourth-grade imperial physician.
Han Wei, the prince of Zhenguo, took the opportunity to go out of the ranks, bowed down to play, and asked for his life to go to Ganzhou.
After pondering for a while, the emperor rejected the request of Zhenguo Gong on the grounds that the weather was bad and there were too many old injuries on Guogong's body, and he was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it, and then he ordered Han Entropy, the second son of Zhenguo Gong, to be the general of Dingbei, with 1,000 elite soldiers, to escort Yao Imperial Doctor and the medicine he brought to the north.
This is the first time Han Entropy has been on the battlefield, and after looking forward to it for so many years, Han Ergongzi, who has long wanted to go to Ganzhou to kill the enemy with his brother for thousands of miles, finally got his wish, so when he received the order, Han Ergongzi's voice was particularly loud.
The eldest princess of Ning Hua was both happy and worried when she knew about this.
Happily, the son has grown up so much, and it is a good thing to have a heart to be loyal to the country, and the emperor's trust in the Han family is also gratifying, after all, even if he is the eldest princess, the son's glory can be guaranteed for a lifetime, but it cannot guarantee his glory for generations. If a family wants not to fail, it must be credited to the community.
Worried, from a mother's point of view, thinking that Ganzhou is a bitter cold place in the extreme north, although her son has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he is also clothed and fed, and he doesn't know how much he will suffer this time.
Han Mingcan was busier than her mother, Princess Ning Hua, and pulled her brother at home to advise, and then ran to Yao Di to see Yao Yanyu, telling her to take care of Yunyun like this and that, she became the busiest person.
When Su Yuxuan heard that Han Entropy was going to the battlefield, she was anxious for a while. Thinking that he didn't know when he would come back, Ganzhou was cold and dangerous, although he had a brother who was handsome, but he was thousands of miles worse than home. Thinking about the first time he went into battle to kill the enemy, he must be impulsive and greedy, and if he is not careful, he will worry about his life. Thinking about the fact that there is no news from Wei Zhang now, it is even more unbearable.
Fortunately, she could use an excuse to see off Yao Yanyu and see Han Mingcan, Han Mingcan knew what was on her mind, so he took the time to comfort her and relieve the pain in her heart.
Long story short. After three days of busy travel, everything was ready.
Yao Yanyu selected sixteen medical girls from the National Medical Hall, plus her six maids, Cuiwei, Cuiping, Xiangzhi, Banxia, Mai Dong, Wumei, and Du Sanniangzi and others, and escorted them with spears and 200 family members from the General's Mansion. With the ninth day of the lunar month, the sun rises at the north gate.
Han Entropy had already gathered two thousand elite soldiers to wait outside the city gate, and saw Yao Yanyu sitting on a red horse in a moon-white medical officer's brocade robe, and the beige feather satin cloak on his body was blown back by the wind, looking like angel wings from a distance. For a while, General Han Xiao was a little stupid.
Yao Yanyi was not at ease, and after seeing Han Entropy, he repeatedly gave up his hands: "The sister is anxious and a little willful, so she will take care of the second son on the road." If she has anything inappropriate, please bear with the second son. ”
Han Entropy laughed loudly: "Brother Yao, don't worry, if Sister Ling has a little mistake, my second sister will not spare me." ”
Han Mingcan, who came to see off his brother next to him, said with a smile: "What my brother said is true. Sister Yao is the treasure of all of us, and there must be no mistakes. ”
Su Yuyu also came to see Yao Yanyu off, but it was not appropriate to show up at this time, so she just sat in the carriage and raised her hand to lift the curtain of the car to look out.
There was a kind goodbye, but I heard the sound of wheels coming behind me.
"Huh? This seems to be the carriage of the Zhou family. Han Mingcan said in surprise.
Zhou Yuelin, the third daughter of the Zhou family, is the choice of the daughter-in-law that Princess Ninghua has long admired. Because Zhou Yuelin was still young, the two families only made a verbal appointment and did not make a decision. After that, it was delayed for a year because of the Queen Mother's filial piety.
Seeing that Miss Zhou is celebrating the New Year, it's time to talk about marriage. A few days ago, the Zhenguo Mansion had sent official media to Zhou's house to officially propose marriage.
Today, Han Entropy went north to the battlefield, although he was only an escort, but he didn't need to come back immediately when he got to the north. It is equivalent to going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, just waiting for the triumphant return. So Zhou Chengyang, the son of the Hou of Anyi, came to see off his sister with his sister.
Su Yuxin didn't know about this yet, so when she saw Zhou Yuelin at first glance, she was a little stunned.
Han Mingcan's gaze immediately came over and glanced at her, Su Yuxuan suddenly realized, so he hurriedly let go of the curtain of the car, turned around and leaned against the corner, and bit the Jinpa in his hand.
Two lines of tears fell, and soon wet the placket. Zhuoyu stepped forward with a handkerchief and persuaded her while wiping her tears: "Girl, don't cry, crying is the only way to suffer by yourself." ”
Su Yuxin snatched Zhuoyu's handkerchief to cover her face, and cried.
The little wolf cub that had been nesting next to him crawled over like a puppy, and its little paws pulled at Su Yuyu's sleeve. Su Yuxing's sadness was finally disturbed by the little wolf cub, so she wiped her tears, threw away the crying wet handkerchief, and reached out to hold the little wolf cub in her arms.
The farewell outside was over, Han Mingcan got into the car with a gust of cold wind, saw Su Yu's red eyes, and glanced at Zhuoyu again. Zhuoyu shook his head, not daring to say more. Han Mingcan turned around and instructed the coachman: "Okay, let's go back too." ”
Su Yuxuan leaned against the corner and didn't speak, only lowered her head and played with the paws of the little wolf cub.
At the same time, in the palace of King Cheng.
Yun Yao's personal grandmother held a piece of tissue paper and ran in a panic in the courtyard of Princess Cheng, crying: "Princess! Oh no! Oh no......"
Princess Cheng was listening to the housekeeper in the palace talking about the year-end account expenses, and when she heard this movement, she suddenly stood up and asked angrily: "What is it called?!" There are no rules at all, you people are getting more and more disagreeable! ”
"Princess, county lord...... The county lord is gone! The woman came in and fell to her knees.
"Let's go? Where are you going?! Princess Cheng only felt a panic in her heart, and had a premonition that something was wrong.
"Let's go...... I've gone to Ganzhou...... "The grandmother trembled and handed over the letter in her hand.
Princess Cheng read the letter, but she didn't come up in one breath, her eyes were dark, and she only had time to shout 'Yao'er' before she lost consciousness.
……
Yao Yanyu and Han Entropy's convoy of horses set off from the north gate of the Great Cloud Emperor's capital, and walked all the way through the snow, walking out of eighty or ninety miles in one day. According to the map marked, I entered a dirt village.
There are 100 families in this village, and the land in the village belongs to the private property of an official in the capital.
The carriage loaded with medicinal herbs was parked at the entrance of the village, and Han Entropy's two thousand elite soldiers were left to guard, which was naturally foolproof.
Although there were a few earthen huts that barely sheltered from the wind and snow, it was still bone-chilling at night. Yao Yanyu wrapped in a feather satin cloak leaned against the fire and squeezed together with Cuiwei Cuiping and others to take a nap, while Du Sanniang guarded them and didn't dare to sleep. She can go to sleep in the carriage during the day, but she has to guard Yao Yanyu at night, although this Zhuangzi is safe, but she also has to be precautionary.
Han Entropy took the spear and the others to light a fire in the courtyard outside, and each sat on a bench or a stone and took a nap. As soon as the morning dawned, everyone nibbled on some dry food and immediately hurried.
After sleeping in the open for three days, he finally arrived in Gucheng in the afternoon.
On the way from the capital to Ganzhou, there is also a decent city in Gucheng, and the others are small towns, or mountain villages or even barren mountains and mountains.
Gucheng is also a strategic location, so a thick urn city wall was built, and the military defense was very tight. If you look closely, there are three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry on the city wall, and there are many lookouts with archers hidden in them.
Han Entropy stood outside the city gate and smiled, saying that he was worthy of being a soldier brought out by his father, seeing that the city defense was so tight, not even a bird could fly in.
Yao Yanyu sighed: "We don't have much to eat, so let's replenish the grain and rice here, and then rest for the night." I'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"I can only supplement from here, and if I go further north, there will be more barren mountains, and I am afraid that I will have to sleep in the open air." Han Entropy said, sighed, and asked again: "I don't know if Miss Yao can stand that kind of suffering." ”
Yao Yanyu chuckled nonchalantly: "There is no unbearable suffering in this world." It's nothing more than a cold spot, and it can compare to this summer's floods? I have seen wild dogs running around with dead people in their mouths. ”
Han Entropy smiled and nodded, "I forgot, Miss Yao is a person who has gone through a lot of wind and waves." In this way, I am relieved. ”
Yao Yanyu smiled slightly: "General, don't worry, I'm not one of those delicate girls. ”
Han Entropy glanced back at the people around her, she was still dressed as a man, with a dark gray otter fur hat on it, this road was vigorous, she was still as white as jade, although she was a little haggard, but she was still smart, and she was still the girl who was full of energy.
So Han Er Gongzi sighed silently, how fortunate Wei Xianjun is, how fortunate he is!
In addition to sighing, Han Entropy was a little melancholy, thinking that the daughter of An Yihou could also be regarded as a beautiful woman and a beautiful woman, but she was also virtuous, but she was always worse than the one next to her. It's just a descendant's identity, what's the use?
However, Han Entropy knew that he should not be involved in these things since he was a child, so he waved his horsewhip, pointed to the city gate in front of him, and said to Yao Yanyu: "Miss Yao, let's compare and see who gets to the city gate first." How is it? ”
Yao Yanyulang smiled: "Okay." ”
So the two of them whipped their horses together, galloped all the way to raise yellow dust and rushed out towards the south gate of Gu Cheng.
Yang Siye, the garrison of Gucheng, was an old subordinate of the Duke of Zhenguo, and he was naturally very polite when he saw the second son of Han.
A group of people were invited into the house by Yang Shoubei and were hospitalized. Yao Yanyu was finally able to comfortably soak herself in hot water. After bathing, it was getting late, and when it was time for dinner, Han Entropy naturally wanted to drink and talk with Yang Shoubei, which was their men's business, and Yao Yanyu ate something and slept first because he was very tired from traveling for days.
Unexpectedly, while she was sleeping, something big happened.
The reason has to start with Du Sanniang.
Du Sanniang is a careful person, although the mansion guarded by Gu Cheng is absolutely safe, but the master of their family is a girl's family, so Du Sanniang took a turn around the house twice when Yao Yanyu was bathing, and swept the surrounding environment and the people who served them one by one.
When I came back, I happened to see a little maid rubbing her hands with snow, and the little maid was also in her teens, and her fingers were frozen like carrots, red and swollen. Du Sanniang knew that it was not someone from her side, but she was inexplicably soft-hearted. This little girl is small, about the same height as the little cuckoo, and she is still a child.
So Du Sanniang took the chilblain cream she had with her, saying that it worked very well, and it would be good to wipe it a few times.
The little maid was very surprised when she saw it, and in front of Du Sanniang, she opened the box and applied ointment to her hands, and muttered to herself: "The slave maid also heard that there is such an ointment for the treatment of chilblains, and it can reduce swelling the next day, and it will not itch." It's a pity that this thing is too expensive, and the slave maid can't buy a small box for a month's money. ”
Du Sanniang was stunned when she arrived, because she asked: "Is this chilblain cream still sold?" Impossible. ”
"How could it not be? The housekeeper in the house bought it, and a small box of such a large one cost one or two taels of silver. The little girl's finger drew a circle the size of an egg, and sighed, "It's really more precious than gold." ”
"So expensive!" Du Sanniang's eyes widened, and she asked incredulously, "Is it worth it?" ”
"It should be worth it." The little maid wiped her hands and returned the ointment box with both hands, "Aunt Xiexie." ”
Du Sanniang raised her hand and pushed it back, and said, "There is not much left, the rest will be sent to you." Tell me, is the chilblain cream your butler the same as mine? ”
The little girl shook her head in embarrassment: "I haven't used him, so I can't say it well." ”
"Won't you compare me to his?" Du Sanniang already had an idea in her heart, she listened to Yao Yanyu sigh for a long time about the loss of nearly half of the previous batch of chilblain cream, and kept saying that it was a pity, this time the packaging must be done well, and the bottle must not be broken again.
She felt that something was wrong, even if the bottle was broken, the ointment was not a potion, and it would not run down the cracks of the box. Moreover, they also covered the box with a layer of waterproof oiled paper. So the precious 400 bottles of ointment can be refilled into other bottles, even if it can't be filled with 400 bottles, but half of them will always be there, right? Now it seems that there is something strange.
The ointment prepared by her master came out of the emperor, leaving 200 bottles for rewarding the harem concubines and the old ministers with military merits in the court, such as Zhenguo Gong, Zhongyi Gong, Dinghou, An Yihou and others, and never sent them to the shops to sell.
What's going on with this little girl's mouth now?
Du Sanniang is a person from the rivers and lakes, and she thinks about things from a sharp angle, so she asked the little maid to go to the housekeeper for comparison.
After a while, the little girl ran back, found Du Sanniang, and said, "Auntie, your ointment is the same as the one I said!" This is too precious, you might as well keep it. If you go north, it's getting colder and colder, and you'll be able to use it. ”
This little maid is young and pure-natured, and she only knows that there are distinguished guests in the house, but she doesn't know where these ladies come from, and she doesn't know that this ointment is prepared by the honored guest who sleeps inside.
Du Sanniang took her ointment with a smile and said, "Okay, you come to me early tomorrow morning, you'd better rub it again." Otherwise, it's not thorough. ”
"Well, Aunt Xiexie." The little girl was deeply blessed by Du Sanniang and went down with a smile.
Du Sanniang had the heart to tell Yao Yanyu about this, and felt that her girl had just fallen asleep, and after a few days of travel, that little body must be tired. It's not worth it to disturb the master's good sleep for this matter. So she called the little girl Mai Dong and told her to go out quietly and find the spear.
Spear was eating with the family outside, and when he heard that it was Yao Yanyu's side, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly put down his rice bowl and ran over.
Du Sanniang quietly told Spear about the matter, and Spear couldn't help but curse and smacked fiercely: "It must be those money-greedy dogs who got this ointment out and sold it halfway!" ”
"This thing is selling for a sky-high price here! I don't know how much black money they made with the hard work of my master! Du Sanniang was also very angry. She is a person who walks the rivers and lakes, and she hates those corrupt officials the most.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry about it, I'll go and check it quietly, find out and tell General Han. Let General Han find a way to punish these wicked people. ”
Du Sanniang nodded and said: "This is very good, don't worry about this kind of thing, she has worked hard enough." ”
The spear deeply agrees with these words, you see so many girls from various families in the capital, which one can be so heroic and capable of Miss Yao? Which girl can compare to their family general?
Not to mention how to find the subordinates of Yang Garrison Mansion when the spear went back, just talk about another girl who has a deep affection for General Wei, the county lord of Yunyao.
The county lord of Yun Yao quietly packed a small bag that day, brought some silver and silver tickets, and a change of clothes, and stuffed a dagger from the Western Regions given to her by Yun Kun into her boots, and then took her own golden silk horsewhip to pull her horse and pulled her favorite horse out of King Cheng's mansion quietly.
If you want to talk about the huge Chengwang Mansion, it is not easy for the county lord of Yunyao to avoid everyone's eyes and ears, but she has been pampered by Princess Cheng since she was a child, and she has never said the same, what she wants to do and what she wants, she will never stop until she achieves her goal.
In addition, the guards who followed her during this period of time were unlucky, so everyone kept the county lord's affairs secret, and they could say less if they could, and they didn't care if they could.
When Yun Yao came out of the horse, the old steward of the horse number asked: Where is the county lord going? The county lord scolded sharply: You slave dare to meddle in things?! Where does the lord of this county need to report to you?
So, when the county lord went out, none of the servants in the house dared to stop him.
Yun Yao got out of King Cheng's Mansion and turned over on his horse, picking up the secluded street and galloping all the way north. When she arrived at the city gate, she waited a little, and when the carriage of Han Mingcan and others, who saw off Han Entropy and Yao Yanyu, went back, she took advantage of the chaos to go out of the city gate, galloped all the way, and chased after the yellow dust rolled up by Yao and Han's convoy.
Later, when Yao Yanyu and the others were resting in the mountain village, Yun Yao overtook the pair of people, she thought that there was nothing to fear if she brought silver, and she got lost when she got out of this Zhuangzi.
It's no wonder that the night is dark and windy, how can she, a delicate girl who has grown up with a bunch of slaves from childhood to adulthood serving her in 360 degrees without dead ends?
But she wasn't too stupid, and when she found that she couldn't find a place to rest, she didn't run any further, but found a windswept ravine and found a bush cat all night.
It was a tough night. Cold, hungry and afraid, he had a horse to keep him company.
Yun Yao's horse is also a specially trained good horse, at night this horse lay next to Yun Yao, Yun Yao leaned on the horse and the horse to warm each other for a while, and then was awakened by the bright morning sun, opened his eyes and looked around, it was actually a barren mountain, not even a road.
There was no way, the county lord of Yunyao had to get on the horse again, and according to the reason that the sun rose in the east, he discerned the direction and walked north. Luckily, I finally found two families in the mountains at noon, so I hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door.
These two families are hunters, one is a mother and son, and the other is a father and son, both fled here, and they had no strength to leave, so they settled here, but they only made a living by hunting some wild animals.
The house that Yun Yao knocked on was a mother and son, and this old woman thought that she was a young lady who had been robbed because she saw that the little girl was dressed in brocade clothes, but she was unkempt. So he let her in, got some water for her to wash up briefly, and brought a bowl of corn porridge.
To say that the lord of Yunyao County is so big, and the ones he eats are all jade grains and gold pure, how can he ever drink such brown rice porridge? But there's an old saying: when you're hungry, chaff is sweeter than honey.
Yun Yao hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and she was really hungry at this time. I drank a bowl of corn porridge in a few sips, and then asked the old woman, "Is there anything else?" ”
When the old woman saw that this little girl was hungry like this, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and hurriedly said, "Yes, there is." ”
So the county lord of Yunyao drank three bowls of corn porridge for the first time.
When she drank these three bowls of porridge, the more the old woman looked at the little girl, the more she liked it, and remembered that her son was in his thirties and did not have a daughter-in-law, and in this deep mountain and old forest, there was no one for ten miles and eight miles, let alone such a delicate and tender little girl.
Yun Yao finally drank enough, smiled at the old woman, and said, "Thank you, how much silver do you want?" With that, the county lord reached out to touch his burden.
"Silver?" The old woman was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Where did the girl say, the old body doesn't want silver." ”
In this deep mountain and old forest, there is nowhere to spend the silver. They live here and grow and eat their own food. At the end of the year, he traveled more than ten miles to get game in exchange for some salt. So you want silver to be of hair?
Besides, if this little lady makes her son a daughter-in-law, the silver on her body and this horse will be a dowry! Isn't it all your own home?
"Don't want silver?" Yun Yao was stunned and smiled happily: "Okay, thank you so much." ”
After speaking, she picked up her burden and turned around to leave, chanting as she walked: "My Dayun folk style is really simple, the emperor's uncle has taught all directions, and even the mountain people here are willing to give." ”
------Off topic------
Dear drops, the monthly pass is so good! Ahhh
