Chapter 193: Warmth
"Take it, boil two bowls of water into one bowl of water, once every three days, drink it for a month."
Uncle Qian handed Xia Mei a prescription and two bags of medicine, and then continued to sit down and pack up the herbs.
Xia Mei was a little stunned with the medicine bag in her hand, and was stabbed in the waist by Su Shi before she came back to her senses, and hurriedly asked, "Thank you Uncle Qian, how much?" ”
Uncle Qian made a move in his hand, glanced at her, and then turned back and said casually: "Just give some." ”
Xia Mei pursed her lips, a little embarrassed, thought about it, took two taels of silver from the money bag and put it on the stool in front of her, Su Shi smiled at the right time: "Uncle Qian, I'm sorry for you, then let's go, you continue to be busy!" ”
Nodding politely at Uncle Qian, Xia Mei was about to leave behind Su Shi, when she caught a glimpse of the little guy on the side looking at her for a moment, with her fingers in her mouth, which was quite cute.
With a move in his heart, he took out the candy strip for Tang Bao from the cuff: "Come on, little friend, take it." ”
The child looked at her a little blankly, took the candy bar in his hand in a daze, and still looked at Xia Mei.
Xia Mei was stunned, how does this kid look like......
Glancing at Uncle Qian, who was sitting there with his back and getting medicinal herbs, a trace of distress flashed in Xia Mei's eyes, and she chuckled at the child: "Eat, eat." ”
As she spoke, she also made a gesture of putting something in her mouth, and when she saw the child laughing happily because of the sweetness in her mouth, Xia Mei smiled relaxedly.
patting the child's head, Xia Mei turned to leave, so she didn't see it, Uncle Qian kept staring at her.
Early in the morning of the second day, the Wu family's small courtyard.
"Husband, are you going to hunt today?"
Xia Mei lay on Wu Song's chest, and the green silk of the two was intertwined with each other and scattered on the pillow, as if a beautiful ink had been blurred.
Wu Song's fingers gently wrapped around the hair on his hand, and he hummed casually, his eyes kept falling on the smooth and white forehead in front of him.
Xia Mei rolled her eyes, turned her head, and rested her chin on her chest. Flattering asked, "Husband...... Can I come with you? ”
Wu Song raised his eyebrows, "Don't you have to go to the restaurant?" ”
Xia Mei pursed her lips angrily, a little frustrated: "There hasn't been much business in the restaurant recently, and it's useless for me to go." Wen Xi just watched it. ”
Wu Song chuckled, his chest scowling slightly, "Okay, I'll take you there." ”
Xia Mei was immediately happy, and pounced on her full thin lips. Let out a "pop" sound, "Thank you, husband!" ”
Wu Song's eyes darkened, and his voice was hoarse: "Lady...... Before we go, let's do it again. ”
Xia Mei: "Huh? …… Not! ”
The willow branches outside the window have pulled out green shoots, and the cold wind exudes vitality and strong spring.
As a result, in the end, Xia Mei still didn't follow Wu Song to the mountains, because she couldn't get up.
For someone's deliberate concern and belated tenderness, Xia Mei gritted her teeth. Angry turned his back and ignored people, and after he left in high spirits, he lay on the bed alone for a long time before slowly getting up.
"Bastard! It's so hateful! ”
While sucking the noodles in the bowl and muttering indistinctly, Xia Mei sat alone under the eaves, bored and idle.
After eating enough, it's okay again, and after thinking about it, it's better to go to the village chief's house again.
When they arrived at Li Sheng's house, Li Sheng and the others were selecting seeds. When you want to start planting wheat, you should use the principle that bad seeds will float on the surface of the water, and pick out bad seeds, and the germination rate will be much higher.
I saw Xia Mei coming. Li Sheng hurriedly wiped his hands and welcomed people into the house, and Xiao Li also served tea to Xia Mei and Li Sheng, and went out quietly to continue picking seeds.
Xia Mei was very guilty, "Village Chief...... I, the workshop. It may not be possible to do it right now. ”
Li Sheng was stunned for a moment, then pondered for a moment, and asked with a solemn expression: "But is it because of martial law at the border gate?" ”
Xia Mei was a little surprised, she didn't expect Li Sheng to know, after all, the people in Qingshan Town who knew were those people from the rivers and lakes, but they had nothing to do with themselves and were indifferent, so there were not many people who knew.
nodded, "That's right, I thought that after this natural disaster passed, I could start making a good profit with these things and expanding the business of the restaurant, who knew that I would encounter this kind of thing when I first started......"
"At the moment, the business of the restaurant is not good, and the supply of this rice noodle is very small, so ...... The workshop may not be built in a moment. ”
Li Sheng was a little regretful and disappointed, and it was fleeting, but he comforted Xia Mei softly: "It's okay, sister-in-law, don't worry, maybe this battle can't be fought, didn't the outside say that the prince took someone to the peace talks?" I've watched for the most months, and I'm back to normal. ”
Hearing this, Xia Mei sighed in her heart, how could it be so simple, but she chuckled and said, "Well, I hope so." ”
The two sighed at the news and chatted about some other news, and Xia Mei got up and left.
Back at home, Xia Mei began to clean the house, she was bored alone, and she didn't want to go to the restaurant or do anything else, so after cleaning, she began to toss and make buns.
After living the noodles and waiting for the dough to ferment, I simply went to lie on the kang for a while, and when the buns were wrapped, it was already dark.
Although it has already started spring, it will still be quite cold in the evening, so Xia Mei started to boil a warm green vegetable and radish porridge, accompanied by cabbage buns, full of meat, full of meat and satisfied.
Coincidentally, Baozi happened to be Tang Bao's return, Xia Mei didn't go to the town in the past two days, Wen Xi and Yunni took him there.
"Wow! It smells so good! Mother, what delicious did you make? ”
The person was still outside the door, and the cheerful voice had already arrived in the house, Xia Mei heard this, and her lips unconsciously smiled, until Tang Bao threw herself into her arms, and then chuckled.
"Slow down! What a glutton! Even though they've grown so big, it's still like when they were children! ”
Although he scolded lightly, he had already taken a bun in his hand and put it in a bowl, and served it to him for him to eat first.
When Wu Song came back with a few prey, the mother and son were in front of the stove in the kitchen, Xia Mei held Tang Bao in her arms, Tang Bao was holding a white porcelain bowl, which contained white and fat buns, Wu Song could even smell the fragrance.
The bright firelight jumped, reflecting the gentle and cheerful smiles on the faces of the mother and son, and in the smoke rising in the kitchen, there were one or two joyful laughter from Xia Mei and Tang Bao's immature children's words.
Every qiē is so beautiful, Wu Song's heart suddenly softened.
So much so that in those bloody days in the future, when he recalled this scene, he could once again surge with infinite strength, pick up his sword again, and move forward bravely.
"Daddy! You're back! ”
Tang Bao slid down his mother's lap, ran to Wu Song with a bowl and pedaled, and when he saw the prey that had been dealt with in his hand, he didn't feel afraid, after all, he was used to it, but asked curiously: "Daddy, why are these rabbits and pheasants so small?" ”
Wu Song stretched out his big palm and rubbed his head funny, explaining: "Because they didn't eat last year, they were hungry and thin." ”
A hint of sympathy crossed Tang Bao's eyes, "Ah, it's so pitiful, the taste of hunger must be very uncomfortable." ”
Looking at Tang Bao, who was holding the bowl and eating half of the buns in the bowl, Wu Song couldn't help laughing.
At this time, Xia Mei also walked out, and said softly with a smile: "You're back, wash your hands, let's eat steamed buns tonight!" ”
Wu Song nodded, a hint of pampering crossed his eyes, turned around and put these prey on the board, and then dealt with them after eating.
Dinner is very enjoyable, so when you eat steamed buns, only two or three times a year, after all, it is very troublesome, usually they are busy, they can only eat once in their free time, or once during the festival.
After dinner, Wu Song pickled the rabbits and pheasants, if it was in the past, Xia Mei would say use less salt, let's eat quickly, but at this moment, it is not possible.
Before it is certain that there will be no war, this qiē has to take precautions, how difficult it is to survive in the war-torn era Xia Mei can't imagine at all, but she can't help but think about it, she can only make some preparations as much as possible.
If you can't fight, it's best, if you really fight...... Maybe a rabbit can save someone's life.
Anyway, it's just to have peace of mind, the more things you store, the more Xia Mei can sleep peacefully at night.
Wu Song didn't say anything about this, but recently, he went hunting every day, and all these pickled animals at home were piled up in a large vat, and all the small things that had just grown meat nearby were brought home for him.
He was still thinking in his heart that he would go farther tomorrow and get a wild boar back......
The two of them were busy in the kitchen, Tang Bao was doing his homework in the next room, at this moment the sky outside had completely darkened, the room had been lit with oil lamps, and the occasional beating wick quietly shone on Tang Bao's serious side face.
The night is ordinary, and in the midst of the ordinary, there is some uneasy surge.
…………
Border pass, Qianguo camp.
The style of the camp in Qianguo is a little different, if Xia Mei is here, you will find that the people here are very similar to the inhabitants of Mongolia in the previous life, but Qianguo is not a nomadic tribe, they are a large tribe, and there are obvious characteristics of class rule.
At this moment, the tent is located in the center of the whole camp, and the tent is covered with a thick and warm wool carpet, and the arrangement is comfortable and exquisite, although it is already early spring, the tent still uses a stove, and tea is still sitting on it, and it is steaming hot.
On the low floor on the side, there was a young man in white, only fifteen or sixteen years old, with his eyes closed and pretending to sleep, his long and thick eyelashes trembling gently, like a butterfly about to fly, his skin was pale and almost transparent, his cheeks were pink and bloodshot, the bridge of his nose was straight, and his thin lips were pursed.
This is naturally the legendary young national teacher.
It is indeed very young, Luo Ke who is hidden in the shadows can't stop marveling in his heart, he can't imagine it before he sees it, this young man can't help but be weak, and he is handsome.
This kind of appearance is not like a Qianguo person, but like a ......
Tightening his fists, Luo Ke carefully hid his breathing, he had been lurking here for several hours, and he couldn't afford to fall short. (To be continued.) )
