The dragon guards were in the courtyard, and a table was also set up in the hall.

Du Juan invited Gonggong Qiu, Zhang Gui and others to sit in the hall, and said, "In the countryside, although the tea and rice are coarse, there are also different from the capital, so my father-in-law and everyone should taste it fresh." ”

Gonggong Qiu smiled so hard that his old face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and said to Zhang Gui: "Little prince, the county lord is polite." Our family has eaten here, don't look at the thick bowl, the food tastes not bad. ”

Zhang Gui stretched out his hand and asked, "County Lord, please take a seat!" ”

The cuckoo smiled and said, "You eat first, I'll eat inside." ”

A look of disappointment flashed on the faces of Jang Gyu and the boys, and they all had to sit down.

After eating a few bites, they all smiled at the cuckoo and said that it really tasted good.

The cuckoo graciously accepted the compliment, and was not in the least polite to them.

She is still very confident in the dishes made by her godmother; Besides, according to common sense, the more they are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas at home, the more they should be greedy for the freshness of the home-cooked meals in this countryside.

After a few polite words and a few words of pity, she walked out.

The courtyard was also very lively, and the dragon guards were eating happily.

Dameng's daughter-in-law and others kept serving dishes to the top, picking up everyone's favorite food and repeating it.

It was supposed to be more lively, but because of Daddy Huang's death, many people went to Huang's house to help, and those who stayed behind also spoke in low voices, not good at laughing loudly; Even more because the cuckoo has a bad complexion, everyone doesn't dare to laugh.

Seeing that Zhang Luo was almost done, Dameng's daughter-in-law wiped her hands on her apron, and walked over to call Du Juan to go to the kitchen to eat, and whispered to her: "Du Juan, don't feel uncomfortable." That old thing is death! It's a good day, but no one forces him. The emperor also rewarded the Huang family with so many good things, and he hanged himself. Becoming a heart makes people feel bad! Death is death, who rarens him! ”

Cuckoo sighed. "You can't say that......"

Although Daddy Huang is a little stupid, his feelings for his children and grandchildren are undeniable, and his plans are also thoughtful, which is why she is particularly panicked.

Seeing her like this, Dameng's daughter-in-law hurriedly diverted her words and deliberately complained: "Du Juan, I am your godmother, why don't the emperor and his mother reward me with some good things?" ”

The cuckoo blinked when he heard this, and couldn't help but laugh.

She said, "Godmother." I'll give you some goodies. ”

Dameng's daughter-in-law raised her eyebrows and said, "Can that be the same?" Only those who are rewarded by the emperor have face! ”

The cuckoo took her arm and coaxed: "Godmother, we are not rare to be rewarded." When Brother Jiu'er earns fame and earns a wife for you to come back, then it will really have face! ”

Hearing the words, the daughter-in-law smiled, and the voice should be.

When I entered the kitchen, the small square table was also full of dishes, and everyone was waiting.

Guixiang beckoned to the cuckoo: "The county lord is here to sit." ”

The cuckoo snorted and walked over to sit down beside her.

Everyone laughed and served the food and vegetables. If you can't sit at the table, you can squat or sit in front of and behind the stove, eating and talking.

Before the cuckoo eats, he stood up and solemnly thanked everyone for their help.

Dameng's daughter-in-law smiled: "You have to thank Erni and Sister-in-law Li extraordinarily." They brought all the good food from home. Mi also picked up a load. ”

It turned out that the Li family and the leper thought that they would definitely have to rely on the cuckoo when they went back to Yangu, so they should pay for her now. So he brought the dried vegetables and meat hidden at home to entertain the officers and soldiers. Fresh vegetables are even more loaded to pick here.

The cuckoo listened and thanked the two of them.

Erni hurriedly said: "Don't rush to thank you first, wait until I go to you." We don't know how much trouble we're going to have to trouble you, but it's a good idea to help cook a meal. We're the one you call ...... 'long line to catch big fish'. ”

Guixiang also said, "That's it." ”

She was excited to move to a new place. His face was full of joy.

The cuckoo listened with a smile, not as happy as before.

Everyone deliberately avoided the death of Daddy Huang and specifically talked about moving.

After eating for a while, after cleaning up, it was getting late, except for Guixiang Erni who stayed with Du Juan, everyone else went back.

At that time, it was already dark, and Du Juan saw that there were not many officers and soldiers, so he ordered Zhanqing Zhanhong and Zhang Gui to arrange for them to set up tents in the courtyard. After explaining, because she heard the sound of gongs and desolate cries in the distance, she walked to the gate of the courtyard and quietly looked at the other side of the river.

"County Lord!"

Jang Gyu walked over and shouted softly.

The cuckoo turned his head, and in the dim light of the torches, his eyes showed an inquiring meaning.

Zhang Gui took out a small package from his arms, handed it to her, and said, "This was handed over to the county lord by Lin Xiucai, the national superintendent before leaving. ”

After speaking, his eyes were firmly fixed on the cuckoo to see her reaction.

The cuckoo was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly reached out to take it.

"Thank you, little prince. What did he say? She asked casually.

"Didn't say anything." Jang Gyu-do.

The cuckoo pinched the contents of the package with his hand and thought to himself, what was it?

It's so small, it's definitely not clothes, it's not food, it's jewelry?

Then he shook his head again, thinking that he would not ask someone to send jewelry to him from such a distance, he had already carved a lot for her in the past, this must be a very special thing.

While thinking, with a slight smile, I was about to unwrap the package and see.

Suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly raised her eyes, Zhang Guizheng was staring at her.

She hurriedly tied the package around her waist and smiled at him: "Little prince, the resume information of those dragon guards will trouble you." Also, at night, the officers and soldiers are ordered to rest early, and we will set off tomorrow when the roosters crow, and we will not be able to reach Wasp Ridge if it is late. ”

Zhang Gui hugged his fists and said: "Subordinates obey orders!" ”

The cuckoo nodded to him slightly, and hurried back to the house.

Suddenly, there was a whisper of laughter from the attic.

Zhang Gui looked up and saw the tiger half-lying under the eaves of the porch like the wind, staring down through the gap between the wooden railings. Thinking of Du Juan's eager expression when he heard that Lin Chun had brought the package just now, he was in a somewhat dull mood.

Turning his head to see that the dragon guards had already set up all the tents, he explained a few words to his subordinates, and then walked out of the courtyard and walked down the slope to the river.

Today, May 13th, the moon is almost complete, and the moonlight adds a lot of charm to the mountain villages and fields in early summer, which is different from what you see during the day.

Jang Gyu walked to the water canal of the leper's house and inspected it with great interest.

After a dog barking. The leper came out of the courtyard.

When I saw him, I didn't know what to call him. Only know how to bow respectfully.

Zhang Gui saw Du Juan and his daughter-in-law talking and laughing in harmony during the day, and knew that he was also going back to Yangu. Yin asked him with a smile: "This bamboo pipe is connected to water?" To your home? ”

The leper nodded hurriedly and explained to him the principle of water diversion.

Jang Gyu was amazed and asked who did it.

The leper said that it was Lin Chun, "I went to the capital to study." ”

Zhang Gui immediately condensed and asked about Lin Chunqi.

The leper praised Lin Chun in a proud tone.

At the end, he pointed to the cuckoo's yard and said, "Cuckoo, he is the county lord, and he built the county lord's house, and he made all the household things in the house." Originally, this water also went to the lord's house, but later it ...... That one...... The county lord called the officers and soldiers to arrest him. Later, there was a great flood. Washed out all the bamboo. We did it again, and I don't know when she came back, so we didn't help her pretend. ”

Jang Gyu listened silently, very distracted.

He had entered the cuckoo's room, the main hall and the study. Although it is a rural village, the household utensils inside are exquisite and elegant, but they are comparable to the furnishings of the princely family in the capital. He had also heard of Lin Chun's craftsmanship, and he thought he was just a carpenter, but he didn't expect to have such a high style. Just like the genius who is good at calligraphy and painting, he has tended to the realm of art.

He slowly sat down on the stone beside the road. Looking at the river sparkling in the moonlight, he whispered, "You guys are beautiful here." Have Lin Chun and Du Juan been good since they were children? ”

The leper was very happy to see that this little official was not tired of himself, and sat down beside him. "We're just looking good here." The cuckoo said it was picturesque. The paintings I posted at home were painted by her and Huang Xiaofuzi. It's all the scenery on our mountain, some in spring and some in autumn. There are mountains and water. I used to go on a raft to the river on nights like this. I took my daughter-in-law and the cuckoo to go fishing, and I was so happy......"

The leper paints a moving picture of rural life to Jang Gyu.

In this scene. Lin Chun and Du Juan learned from babbling to adulthood, condensed into an idiom that is "childhood sweethearts".

He was inexplicably moved and a little distressed, for himself.

There was a faint mist rising from the river beneath your feet, and if you didn't hear the sound of "rushing" water, it would be a deep valley. Under the moonlight, the distant village was also shrouded in mist, and every qiē around him was like a dream, clearly reminding him that he had stepped from the bustling city of Kyoto into a world far away from the red dust.

What's next for life?

He stood up and smiled at the leper, "My name is Zhang Gui, and I am the dragon guard who guards the county lord. In the future, we will live back to Yangu together, and we will be neighbors. ”

Unexpectedly, the leper solemnly signed up, and said in a panic: "My name is ...... Leprosy. ”

Zhang Gui said: "Brother Leper, I'm back, thank you for chatting with me." ”

The leper hurriedly said, "Bah, belch! No thanks, no thanks! ”

Seeing him walking up the slope, I thought to myself that this little military master was really kind.

Jang Gyu walked into the courtyard and unconsciously looked up at the attic. There was still a light on it, but there was no sound. He stood quietly for a while, did not enter the tent, ordered his attendants to hold the lamp and put pen and ink, sat down at the round table under the eaves of the rhododendron corridor, and began to sort out the resumes of his men.

Speaking of the cuckoo, after going upstairs and washing up, he unwrapped Lin Chun's package under the lamp.

There was a boxy dark mahogany box in the package, and there was no switch. She flipped through the pages, smiled, and pressed the bottom of the box lightly, and heard a "click" sound, and the lid popped open. She burst out laughing excitedly.

Guixiang, who was taking a bath behind the bed, hurriedly asked, "What cuckoo are laughing at?" ”

The cuckoo said, "It's okay, you wash yours." Hurry up, I'll wait for you to speak! ”

As he spoke, he took out a wooden bracelet and a wooden hairpin from the box, and couldn't help muttering, "Why do you do this again?" It's not as good as the original......"

As he spoke, he stopped and found a folded letterhead at the bottom of the box.

She hurriedly put down the bracelet and hairpin, picked out the letter and read it.

After reading the letter at a glance, there was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he hurriedly took the bracelet and hairpin in his hand, touching and pressing it......

******

I'm about to go back to Yangu. Let's go on vacation with the cuckoo in the imaginary paradise of the wilderness, and bring pink! (To be continued......)
