Chapter Seventy-One: Guo Marunzi (2)

Out of the southern city, around the bare peony cliff mud wall, is the deep mountains and old forests where we hide.

The rain was heavy and the ground was covered with flying mist.

I held a bamboo umbrella alone, and Hua Xixue and Wei Zhen's attendants huddled together. Along the way, this attendant chatted with us, telling us in detail about his background and the destruction of Heqimen. After a long story, it can actually be summed up in a few sentences.

First, his name is Guo Xintong, and Wei Zhen gave him the nickname Ball, named because he could swallow two large meatballs in one go.

Second, the Heqimen was destroyed overnight, and I still don't know who the enemy is.

He clasped his hands to his chest and sighed with a lamenting face: "Shopkeeper Tian, you don't know, when my young master was not stupid, he was smart, quite perceptive, and valued love and righteousness, how many girls wanted to marry him." It's a pity, alas, my poor young master......"

Hua Xixue held a bamboo umbrella and said as she walked: "Is there a girl who wants to marry him?" Isn't his temperament scary? ”

Guo Xintong ignored him and kept looking at me: "Shopkeeper Tian, my young master is stupid, but you are not beautiful, if you don't want it, follow my young master...... To be honest, I didn't recognize you as a woman when I saw you the first time, you must know that my young master has a dignified face, and he used to be surrounded by beauties everywhere he went. If not...... It's not your turn, is it? ”

Me: "......"

Hua Xixue sneered: "Pull it down, those women are all Qinglou women who are acting on the spot." ”

Guo Xintong continued: "Tian shopkeeper, we don't need a dowry, although Heqimen was destroyed, but we still have a lot of real estate and land under our name, buying a manor is not a problem, this life will be able to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing, but your profession is criticized by the world, you have to change places, go to Bingzhou or Yizhou, right?" Anyway, you don't have a parental background, I heard Mr. Chen say, your master doesn't care much about you, and your uncle also hates you, although my young master is a little stupid, but I will help serve you, and buy a few more maids......"

I casually plucked a dog's tail grass and wrapped it around the handle of the bamboo umbrella, and he suddenly stopped: "Shopkeeper Tian, are you listening?" ”

I nodded, "Yes." ”

"Then why don't you take a stand?"

I patted him on the shoulder: "You'll understand later, you will be satisfied with a beautiful lady who is like a flower and jade to accompany him, don't worry about it." ”

His face sank: "Just that fool of the Xia family?" ”

My face sank: "What did you say?" ”

He looked disdainful: "I heard Mr. Chen say, that's a female fool, no matter how good her background is, it's useless." ”

I immediately raised my hand and slapped him on the head: "Who is barefoot who is qualified to laugh at other people's ugly shoes, he is a fool, and he is still picking and choosing there!" ”

He glared angrily: "You dare to hit me!" "Anyway, he was going to kick me, Hua Xixue took him away, and sighed lightly: "This kid follows Wei Zhen, and he is used to being arrogant." ”

I asked, "How do you know?" ”

He said lightly: "Didn't you see it in your dreams?" Oh, come to think of it, you were called away that day. ”

By the time we reached the courtyard, it was already dark.

Under the rain curtain at night, the hut looks particularly quiet and serene, with a candle flame shining dimly through the screen window.

As we snaked our way up the mud path and pushed open the wooden fence, I was surprised to find that the small bare courtyard was full of flowers, and the rain fell on them, and the fragrance of the flowers dispersed, with a little coldness and drunkenness.

I looked at Hua Xixue: "You picked it?" ”

He walked straight to the house: "I have been dizzy by you in the past few days, so I don't have this leisure. ”

Xia Yuelou heard our movement and went out of the door: "The ninth day of the first month!" You're back! These two are ......"

Guo Xintong pushed her away and ran to the back room: "Young master! Master! ”

Hua Xixue smoothed the folds on his clothes, stepped on the mud path, Guo Xintong's skirts and boots were already covered with mud, but he was still clean and clear. He said lightly: "I am the rescuer found by Miss Tian, my name is Huahu." ”

Help?

After a few words, I realized that during the days when I was away, Hua Xixue lied and said that I was going to move the rescuers. Seeing that his expression was natural and his face was pale and waveless, I really didn't know what medicine was in his gourd. But at present, Wei Zhen is seriously injured, and Xia Yuelou and I together are not enough for him to pinch to death, and I don't follow him, unless I am too long.

I had to be kind and flowing: "Well, this Mr. Hua is the rescuer I am looking for." ”

Entering the back room, Wei Zhen was half-lying on the bed, playing with two wooden birds, and was overjoyed when he saw me: "Mother! You're back! ”

I hurried over to check on his injuries, and he was well recuperated, with a faint medicinal fragrance on his body. Looks good and refreshed.

Guo Xintong shrank in the corner, holding his head, and looked up at me pitifully: "Shopkeeper Tian, young master, he beat me again......"

I patted Wei Zhen on the shoulder: "Good fight, but you really don't have any impression of him?" ”

"Him?" Wei Zhen thought seriously, "Who is he?" ”

I gloated and looked at Guo Xintong: "Your young master knows everyone as a relative, either his father and mother or his younger siblings, but he doesn't recognize you, it seems that you are really not very good at this little girl." ”

He snorted, crouched in the corner with his head in his hands, and ignored me awkwardly.

Although he didn't have a good impression of this stinky boy, Wei Zhen was so down-and-out that he still came to him, which can be regarded as affectionate and righteous. I built a bridge and introduced him, and then left their master and servant to sneak to the kitchen next door to help Xia Yuelou arrange dinner.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, my jaw dropped to the ground in surprise.

In the kitchen room, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are available, dishes and plates are replaced with a full set of white porcelain, and even the water tank is replaced. Xia Yuelou said that it was all made by Hua Xixue, and he was dirty with the old one. I was immediately angry, since he had the heart to replace it, why didn't he make a sound to obstruct me when I was working hard to wash up, and hurt me in vain.

Halfway through dinner, Hua Xixue came in with two pheasants and a large bunch of wild vegetables, I called him aside and lowered my voice: "This set of buying people's hearts is good, although I don't know what tricks you want to play, but you'd better not hurt them, otherwise I will burn you with jade!" ”

He snorted coldly: "What kind of burning method? ”

I pointed to my neck: "Before you die, let the blood provoke a large group of monsters, see if you can escape!" ”

He threw the pheasant at my feet: "It's time to get a dog, ungrateful." ”

I "puffed" him, picked up the pheasant and walked outside the yard to pluck and wash it.

I pluck chicken feathers and wash chicken very easily, but I look clumsy when I cook on a fire. Although Xia Yuelou is in a bad situation in the Xia family, she is also a pampered eldest lady. So for this dinner, the two of us cooked it for almost two hours, and we both smoked black charcoal.

When the rain stopped, the outside air was fresh and refreshing, and we brought our meals to the stump in the courtyard and sat together.

Wei Zhen was in a good mood, and after eating a bowl of rice, he naturally handed the bowl to Xia Yuelou: "Sister Yuelou, I still want it!" Xia Yuelou obediently took it, turned around and went into the house to serve dinner. Taking advantage of this moment, Wei Zhen hurriedly pulled me to lower his voice and said, "Mother, you go and propose to Sister Yuelou!" ”

I bit my chopsticks: "What? ”

He was very anxious: "Sister Yuelou said that she would leave when I was healed, I didn't want her to go!" ”

My heart sank, thinking of Xia Yuelou's nurse and Bi'er, I nodded sadly: "She only has one relative left, if she marries you, will you take good care of her?" ”

He said very strictly: "I will love her for the rest of my life, and I will not let her suffer and suffer!" ”

I immediately "cut" and said, "Then let her serve you rice?" In the future, you have to rush to do this kind of work, she is a young lady, ten fingers do not touch the spring water, do laundry and cook for you, you are embarrassed! ”

Xia Yuelou came back soon and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?" ”

Wei Zhen was busy pushing me nervously, and his voice was very low: "Mother, say it quickly!" ”

My face was full of black lines, put down my chopsticks, and hesitated: "That, Wei really wants to marry you, ask if you want to ......"

"Huh?"

Wei Zhen grabbed my wrist and shouted softly, "Sister Yuelou......"

I suddenly got goosebumps, Xia Yuelou didn't seem to feel good, and smiled embarrassedly: "Brother Wei, let's not laugh......"

"What a joke!" Wei Zhen said eagerly: "Sister Yuelou, you promised to give birth to a child for me yesterday!" ”

Xia Yuelou blushed with a pretty face: "That's nonsense when coaxing you to drink medicine, how can you take it seriously?" ”

"No matter! I've even got a name! ”

Hua Xixue raised her eyebrows: "Name? ”

Wei Zhen nodded seriously: "If you give birth to a girl, you will be called Wei to eat, and a boy will be called Wei Shi." ”

Hua Xixue sneered: "It's okay to call it breastfeeding regardless of whether it's male or female." ”

Guo Xintong hurriedly shook his hand: "No, no, no!" The eldest lord is called Wei Nai! ”

We: "......"

The topic suddenly jumped to the name, and even Wei Zhen forgot to mention the kiss.

But I noticed that Xia Yuelou's face has been gloomy since then, and she said that she was leaving, I was really afraid that she would not be able to think about it, and go back to die with Cai Fengyu.

The hatred she bears is not something I can understand, it must have been engraved into the bones, turned into blood, and rolled in the veins at all times.

I didn't want to see her do stupid things, so after dinner, I deliberately pulled her to the river to wash the dishes, I poured the greasy pots and pans in the bamboo basket on the river shallows, clapped my hands, and said with a smile: "Now there are only two of us left!" ”

Or these chapters are a little bland, starting tomorrow**, tut, welcome Uncle Zun back~?!
