31. Poodle
After the gold festival, the fourth elder brother was rarely relaxed. Occasionally enter the palace once, read a book with the prince, and go to see the fourteenth. He heard that the fourteenth has worked very hard in the study and school field recently, not only is the endorsement and interpretation far better than the thirteenth of the same age, but even the ninth and tenth elder brothers are not his opponents.
On the school field, if Chenda asked him to draw the bow fifty times, he would pull it a hundred times. Drawing a line to move the target to let him shoot twenty bows away, he was about to shoot thirty bows, and he really shot at the target, crooking the nose of the ninth elder brother next to him.
The fourth elder brother felt honored. This is his younger brother, who is stronger than the ninth elder brother who is a few years older than him. He went to see Fourteen, and saw the horn bow he had given him hanging in his bedchamber. Fourteen said seriously: "I want to work hard to use the bow that the fourth brother gave me as soon as possible!" ”
He also went to Yonghe Palace to ask for peace. Concubine De didn't seem to care about the events of that day at all, and treated him the same as before. Three points for hot and seven points for cold.
But this also made the fourth elder brother breathe a sigh of relief, because Concubine De specially mentioned his bow to the fourteenth elder brother, and said: "Your brother mentioned it to me before, I didn't answer him, it's rare that you found him a pair, and it made him happy." ”
The fourth elder brother was happy at that time, and said, "Where is Eniang?" He is my own brother, I have opened a mansion now, whatever he wants, as long as I can find it, I will definitely get it for him. ”
Concubine De said lightly: "You can't get used to him so much." When you were a child, you never asked for things, and you always wanted to study hard and draw your bow by yourself, so that the emperor could reward you. Little Fourteen should also learn from you. ”
The fourth elder brother persuaded: "He is still young, not to mention that my brother is here." Otherwise, what do you want me to do? ”
What do you want you to do?
Concubine De wanted to say something, but Zuihou swallowed the words back.
When the fourth elder brother puts down a big stone in his heart, he is in the mood to fix something else. Before, Long Keduo said that he wanted to find someone to hunt with him, so he and the fifth elder brother were specially invited. The fourth elder brother thought that this was an opportunity, so he agreed at that time, and wanted to prepare something when he came back.
Then, at the end of the garden, a two-room place suddenly became walled, and after a few days dogs barked from inside. When Li Wei went for a walk in the garden with her belly on her shoulder, she heard the tender barking of the little milk dog, and her eyes lit up and she took the lead to find the sound.
Standing outside the small courtyard, Zhao Quanbao stopped her and said, "Gege, pickle H in front, the slave will go and take a look." ”
Li Wei said excitedly: "There seems to be a dog inside, you go and ask if you can let me in and have a look!" "She has a skewer Teddy in her modern home. When Teddy bought it back, when she was one year old, she saw that it seemed to be skewered by Teddy + Pomeranian, but her own dog hurts, and she still loves it very much!
After passing through, she raised birds and fish in the Li family, and even rode the family's Ama horse, but she never had a dog or cat. Because I was afraid that the puppy and kitten would bite and scratch people, leaving scars on her body. It was useless for her to ask for anything.
There is no need to mention it after entering the palace.
Now I didn't expect to hear a puppy barking in the house! Definitely have to touch it!
Zhao Quanbao walked over and knocked on the door very easily, and after talking to the people inside, a person carefully took the two dogs out and followed Zhao Quanbao over.
Zhao Quanbao said: "Gege, this dog is raised by the fourth master for hunting, the big dog is fierce and doesn't dare to let Gege see it, this puppy is just born by the female dog inside." Gege touch it. ”
These two puppies look like they have just been full moon, and they are full of milk. All of them are not afraid of life, their heads are turned around, and their eyes like black almonds are very clever. One of them is pure yellow, the other is pure black, the front snout is long, the ears are small, and they look like rhubarb.
Li Wei hugged one by one, if it weren't for her big belly, she would have wanted to play with the puppies for a while. Zhao Quanbao and Jade Bottle stared at each other, and when they saw that she had hugged her, they urged her to leave.
On the way back, Li Wei reluctantly looked back and kept saying how cute and cute the dog was. Yu Bottle and Zhao Quanbao glanced at each other worriedly and began to persuade her.
What the jade bottle said is still the same as what Eniang said when she was in the Li family, the puppy has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, what if you accidentally bite Gege and leave a scar?
Li Wei can't be as 'dedicated' as the jade bottle said. Even if she was really bitten by a puppy on her hand, would the fourth elder brother not like her? Besides, domestic dogs don't bite family members. Unless the owner didn't teach the dog well.
Zhao Quanbao said that this dog was used by the fourth elder brother for hunting, and every puppy was useful. It's a coincidence that I saw it today, and it's definitely not appropriate to see you every day.
But Li Wei has to go for a walk in the garden every day, and she can't help but go there when she hears the barking of the puppy. The people in the dog park also wanted to flatter, and seeing that she liked it, she let the big dog take the little dog out for a walk.
Li Wei can be regarded as seeing the fourth elder brother's 'hound'. It's that this dog is not like the wolfdog she imagined, but more like a greyhound with a thin waist and long legs.
Do China also have greyhounds? Westerners brought? But it doesn't look like it.
"What kind of dog is this?" She asked curiously, wanting to take a closer look. When I got closer, I found that the dog was very tall, with a leather holster tied around his neck, and the leather rope was tightly pulled on the hand of the dog slave.
Zhao Quanbao nervously blocked the front, his face was frightened and he didn't forget to answer her: "This is a Shandong fine dog, the emperor in the palace uses this kind of dog for hunting, it runs fast, it can do it to find rabbits and catch foxes, and the bark is still very loud, and it spreads far away." ”
Haven't heard of it.
Is the modern era lost?
Li Wei tried to get as close as she could, reaching out to touch its head. As soon as the dog's head shook off her hand, the dog slave let out a low whining sound, and it stopped moving.
Li Wei had a dog and knew how to eliminate the dog's uneasiness, she reached out to let it smell it, and Zhao Quanbao desperately gave the dog slave a look and asked him to pull the dog away. At this time, the voice of the fourth elder brother suddenly came from behind: "Get down!" ”
Originally, the dog came over to lick her hand, and his tongue was sticking out, and when he heard this, he immediately lay down obediently.
Li Wei turned back sadly and shouted unwillingly: "Master." "Why did you come to the harem so early today? Thinking about it, he looked up at the sky, and the estimated time was only four o'clock in the afternoon.
The fourth elder brother had heard Su Peisheng say a few days earlier, and Li Gege found the small courtyard, hugged the puppy, and went every day.
He walked over and whistled, the dog slave had already knelt on the ground, and the dog immediately stood up when he heard the whistle, wagged his tail and trotted to the fourth elder brother and sat down, not to mention how well-behaved!
The fourth elder brother reached out to lick it and touched his head to reward it. Li Wei took the opportunity to touch it from beginning to end, touching it over and over again and sighing: It's so fat! The hair is so shiny!
When the fourth elder brother saw her eyes shining, she almost bent down to cuddle the dog in her arms, fortunately she still remembered that she had a belly, and the jade bottle holding her behind was also very nervous.
"Like?" It's rare to see a woman who likes this kind of big dog.
Li Wei nodded. Like! In modern times, what she wants to raise most is actually a husky! Unfortunately, the home is small.
The fourth elder brother smiled, helped her up, and said, "Go back and find you a smaller one for you to raise." The dog slave quickly called the dog back, and pulled the dog back to the dog park backwards.
Li Wei is very interested in this Shandong fine dog that she has never seen before! This must be a lost dog breed in China, right? She took the fourth elder brother's hand back to the small courtyard, and as soon as she entered the house, she begged: "No, let me raise this dog, right?" It looks so smart! "The waist is thin and the legs are long, and when you walk, you are as light as a fawn!
The fourth elder brother shook his head and said very seriously: "This dog's nature is to hunt, and it's too pitiful to enclose it in the small yard." You can take it around the garden once a day at most. Dogs can be sad too. I found you a poodle, what coat color do you like? ”
It seems that it is not negotiable. The poodle is also very good, and the dogs are all cute.
Li Wei remembered that she was going to have a dog, and she was even more excited, and she took the fourth elder brother's hand with both hands and said, "Any coat color is fine!" Master, when can you bring it? ”
The fourth elder brother smiled, "Tomorrow." I'll bring it to you tomorrow. ”
In the evening, the two were discussing where the dog would live, what bowl to eat, where to put the water bowl, and whether to prepare a dog house. Li Wei insisted that the dog should live with the owner and sleep in the hall at night, which is usually not needed there anyway.
The fourth elder brother said no, after all, it is a beast, and the dog recognizes the nest, and the position of the nest changes at the beginning, they will be confused, and they will stubbornly think that the first place to sleep is the nest, which is not easy to correct. Zuihou decided to put it in the West Chamber.
There is also a dog house, this Li Wei has research, she said very authoritatively: "The dog is a wolf, and the wolf is a burrowing animal, so a dog house should be prepared for it that can be drilled into a black hole." She also picked up a pen and drew the most luxurious steeple dog house in her memory.
This fourth elder brother didn't pay attention to it, the dogs in the palace will not specially prepare a dog house, they are all in cages, and they are taken care of by dog eunuchs.
He picked up the dog house painted by Li Wei, picked up the pen and added the eaves, the carp-scale roof tiles, and added two beams and two steps under the eaves.
“…… It's wooden. Li Wei explained, the fourth elder brother won't think this is really a 'dog house', right? It's wood, what does it mean to have a roof tiled? Weishenme still has steps? How big is this dog house going to be?
She tugged at the sleeve of the fourth elder brother, compared it with her hand in front of her, and said, "Master, this dog house is so high." ”
The fourth elder brother put down the pen unsatisfied, called Su Peisheng to bring the paint, and said, "Then it can't be just a bare room." ”
Then he meticulously painted the room. The roof is red tiles, Li Wei painted black to represent the dog hole, two red pillars are painted on both sides, and on the eaves is a unicorn town beast, which is the appearance of a poodle.
Zuihou Li Wei also added a stroke, marking an arrow on the roof and writing a line of small letters: 'The roof can be removed in its entirety to clean the dog house'.
The fourth elder brother looked at her words and shook his head.
Li Wei looked at what she wrote, it was much worse than him, but it was also decent.
After painting this, the fourth elder brother was not satisfied, so he took another piece of paper and drew a new one, the dog house was painted more powerfully, it looked like a yamen, and the door was also drawn, and there was a door god on it, which was also a divine beast unicorn. Two stone lions were painted under the two steps, and the fourth elder brother explained that they were used to tie dogs.
Finally painted, the fourth elder brother instructed Su Peisheng to put it away and find someone to do it as soon as possible, and explained that the dog house was on the back cover, in order to avoid water ingress, so it was a double bottom, and there was a gap in the middle, so as not to be too damp. The bottom layer of the dog house should be polished and varnished so that no burrs will puncture the soles of the dog's feet.
This dog house is half a month. The fourth elder brother said that the dog house was not done well, and the puppy had no room to sleep in, so he postponed holding the dog. Taking advantage of this time, Li Wei took the jade bottle and others to sew several mats for the dog.
Li Wei is an expert in making pet mats, the outer edge must be three inches high, and a few threads should be sewn to form a pit in the place where he lies, so as not to lie on the mat and slide down. But after she did a good job, the fourth elder brother always praised it first, and then asked someone to do it again.
Li Wei concluded that the meaning of the fourth elder brother is probably that her concept is new, that is, Jishu is poor and makes him look down on it.
The dog finally came, and after just three months, he could hold it with both hands. Brownish-black hair, eyes that are not as prominent as those of modern Jingba, and black apricot eyes. The nose and mouth are also not so flat, but protrude forward, and at first glance it really looks like a pocket lion. The mouth is open, and there is a mouth of small milk teeth, but the mouth is very wide, and it should be very powerful to bite people.
All in all, this is a very beautiful dog.
There was also a dog eunuch who came with this dog, who was only eleven this year, and his name was Xiao Xizi.
The fourth elder brother said: "Lest you don't even know how to raise flowers like last time, let alone let you raise a dog." ”
She's an expert at raising dogs!
Li Wei said proudly: "Dogs are different! I'm sure nothing will happen to my dog. She hugged the quiet little dog in her arms and thought about what to name it.
The fourth elder brother said: "You have been thinking about raising a dog for a long time? ”
"Hmm." Thinking of this, Li Wei had to sigh, "You can't raise it at home." E-niang was worried that the dog would bite me and leave a scar. "Then you can't draft it.
The fourth elder brother thought in his heart that this was the case, he couldn't walk when he saw the dog, and he was thoughtful about everything about the mat in the house where the dog lived.
"What's the dog's name?" Li Wei asked the fourth elder brother.
He said, "What's your name?" ”
"Call it a lion." Li Wei's name has always been like this, and her dog in modern times is called Teddy.
The fourth elder brother just wanted to nod, thinking that this name was still very majestic, and then thinking about it, the poodle is called a lion?
"Call it Momofuku." He said.
Good soil......
But Li Wei still hurriedly shouted Baifu Baifu.
At night, Momofuku slept in its kennel. Because the dog house was so big, it was placed in the yard. Li Wei saw the dog house and thought it was for huskies.
That night, the two of them talked in the tent all about dogs.
Li Wei was curious about why the fourth elder brother suddenly remembered to raise a dog. The fourth elder brother thought about it and felt that it was okay to tell her, so he said, "You can go hunting in a few days." Originally, I wanted to raise a few before I left the palace, but there were too many things to take care of when I first built the mansion. ”
"Master, are you going hunting?" Li Wei's eyes lit up again. She's almost locked up as an idiot, she eats and sleeps every day, and she has a common language with a certain meat-producing animal. In the past, in the Li family, you could go to the neighbor's relatives' house to hang out, and you could also go around the street. After entering the palace, it was really turned around in this acre and three points.
After the establishment of the mansion, the place was a little bigger, but I still couldn't see an outsider every day, and the jade bottle told her, 'What is Gege eating today?' 'Gege, the dining room says there are fresh persimmons', 'Gege, is it okay to wear this dress today?' ’。 Let's talk to her for a while, and after a while, it will turn to Fujin, Song, and Wu.
I don't want to mention the colleagues in the harem of the fourth elder brother, and the jade bottle didn't dare to tell her the gossip of the fourth elder brother, of course she didn't dare.
Anyway, she began to feel like her time had stopped, and every day was repeating itself like she was in the Morbius Ring. If she can go outside and get in touch with others, she will probably be able to come back to life.
The fourth elder brother didn't speak, so he motioned for her to look at her stomach. She watched as her stomach muffled. The fourth elder brother looked at her depressed and said, "When the child is born, I will take you out." ”
The four elder brothers are about to become Tinker Bell, and they will respond to their needs.
In the past, she felt that the fourth elder brother's true love for her was moved, but today a trace of fear rose in the touch.
She carefully held her stomach and moved over one by one, but the fourth elder brother saw that it was too difficult for her to do this, so he took the initiative to lean towards her. After she became pregnant, even if the two slept in the same bed, they had to be separated by three inches in the middle.
The two finally hugged each other - the fourth elder brother put his arms around her halfway, and she still lay flat and hugged one of his arms. In the silence, Li Wei said softly: "Master, it would be nice to be so good with Master all the time." ”
That's a ...... It's too straightforward.
When women ask men to be pampered, they generally confess their state of mind, seize the day, and do not seek immortality. Pity and cuteness will make men pity and make promises.
So the fourth elder brother didn't react for a while, how to answer, is it a reprimand? Is it the silent refusal to let her know her mistakes? He remembered that Sima Yi, the king of Runan in the Jin Dynasty, had a concubine surnamed Sun, and she once made a poem to confess.
The little girl of the jasper family does not dare to climb the virtues. Feeling the golden meaning of the man, I am ashamed of the city.
What a lovely woman. The fourth elder brother thought that if he was the king of Runan, he would also love such a woman.
In such a comparison, Li's literary style is really not on the stage. This straightforwardness is also ...... Bewilderment......
He sighed and pressed her head into his arms, not looking into her eyes. I wanted to say two words of lesson, but what came out was: "Yes, the master will always treat you like this." ”——
The author has something to say: it's late, see you tomorrow
