Chapter 35: Tricks

As soon as Mrs. Ning left, Mrs. Chen also left, only Yuehua and Ning Yuan were left in the house, Ning Yuan blushed and smiled: "Miss Xu, I'll send you back!" ”

"It's fine."

Yuehua followed behind Ning Yuan. She found that Ning Yuan took her not the same path she usually walked, Yuehua asked him where he was going to take her, he didn't say, Yuehua continued to ask, so she had to follow step by step.

She walked a long way to the barracks, where she had never seen the barracks in a few months, the barracks were much larger than she had imagined, a large area was surrounded by bamboo railings, and there was a small playground with groups of soldiers drilling. At this time, the weather has turned colder, but most of the sergeants are shirtless, and Yuehua is not embarrassed to look at it. The two walked along the path outside the playground, and occasionally a group of soldiers ran past them. Some people knew Ning Yuan, and when they saw the two of them whistling hard, Ning Yuan chased after them and hammered them, Yuehua felt very embarrassed.

"Ignore them, I'll take you for a walk over there." Ning Yuan blushed to the base of his neck: "I always want to take you out for a walk, but I can't find a suitable opportunity." ”

"Are you healed!?" Yuehua asked suddenly, and after asking, she felt that it was a little wrong, but she really didn't know how to answer Ning Yuan's words, so she asked without a head, and felt a little unpleasant after asking.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yuan smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth: "I'm sorry for you, I'm much better, let me tell you, I'm fine now...... It's really good. ”

The two of them didn't say anything for a while, walking along the path, there was a lot of rain in the south, and there were weeds growing where no one was walking on the side of the road, and they grew very well, and the weeds and leaves brushed past their feet, slightly itchy, just like the feeling in Yuehua's heart at this time. She had never been alone with any man like this, and she didn't know if it was good or bad: "I think I have some things to do, but I'm afraid I'll have to go back." ”

"Don't go, I didn't tell you...... It's not convenient here, we ...... Say it elsewhere...... After saying that, you will leave, okay......" Ning Yuan said stumblingly.

Ning Yuan took Yuehua to a corner, surrounded by mountains on three sides, green tree buds came from the mountain wall, swaying in the wind, Ning Yuan clenched his hands to show his nervousness, Yuehua felt a little funny, and looked at him a little proud.

"I've been hiding this thing on me for days." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand: "You watch! Yuehua looked at his hand, there was nothing in his hand, and suddenly his fingers moved, and there was an extra golden hairpin in his hand, a butterfly hairpin, the butterfly workmanship was very fine, and the butterfly wings could be seen trembling slightly.

"You're ......"

"This is a trick, let me teach you, that is, hide the hairpin in the sleeve, tie a thin thread on the hairpin, and tie one end to the finger, the thread is very thin, otherwise it will be exposed."

"You've sued me, what's the fun." Yuehua looked at him and said while dancing and explaining to her, not thinking it was a little funny.

"Oh, then I won't talk about it, you...... Take it...... Will you take it? ”

"This ......" Yuehua didn't confiscate other people's things before, but they were all given by eunuchs, and that meeting was purely for greed, this time it was different, she didn't accept it, she didn't accept it...... Looking at his appearance, I couldn't bear to hesitate. Over there, Ning Yuan threw things at her: "You take it first, I'll ...... I still have something to do to go first, this one looks good, and the shopkeeper strongly recommends that I buy it, and it costs five taels of silver! With that, he ran away.

Yuehua called several times and no one answered, until the person ran away, holding the hairpin and crying and laughing, in the end, it was a girl, someone gave her things before, but they were all eunuchs, those eunuchs had a picture of her, a lotus flower, and could blow a box of rouge into the sky, this person sent something and ran faster than a rabbit, Yuehua felt that it was not good to receive things from other men, but she was still very happy in her heart.

Of course Yuehua won't wear this hairpin out, their palace maids can't go out of the barracks, and they asked her what she said! I have to put things away, but her things are pressed under the pillow, this hairpin is not good to rest under the pillow and press, I am hesitating where to put it, it just so happened that Hongluan came, Hongluan saw the hairpin and smiled: "This hairpin is exquisite, but unfortunately it is a fake, I see that you don't like to wear these things, what do you buy it for?" ”

Yuehua didn't take a closer look at it at first, but when she looked closely, it was indeed gold plated on the copper surface, which was worthless.

Yuehua thought to herself, it is estimated that the shopkeeper deliberately cheated Ning Yuan. Yuehua remembered Ning Yuan's appearance, this person has a shy and simple personality, and he doesn't pit anyone else, so it's not good to tell her that this was given by someone else, so she had to say: "I bought it myself a long time ago." ”

"Oh." Hongluan does not doubt him: "The workmanship is okay, you can take it to play." ”

After this incident, Mrs. Chen always intentionally or unintentionally asked Yuehua to help Mrs. Ning, since the new distribution rules came out, there must be a new implementation strategy, Mrs. Ning has been very busy these days, and there are some things to remember to write, Mrs. Chen is illiterate, with Yuehua here, Mrs. Ning has saved a lot of things.

That day, Yuehua was working at Mrs. Ning's place, helping to write things, a kid came in to deliver tea, that kid was hairy, knocked over the tea bowl, splashed a body of tea soup, the weather turned cold, the clothes were wet and frozen, Yuehua only shivered, and there was too much life to do, Mrs. Ning frowned and found a random piece of clothing in the military tent for Yuehua to put on.

Mrs. Ning is very thin, her skeleton is very small, don't look at Mrs. Ning is middle-aged and Yuehua is young, her clothes Yuehua is just right and a little tight, especially the arm is very tight.

Mrs. Ning glanced at Yuehua carefully: "Your arms are good-looking, plump and round." ”

When Yuehua was in the palace, he was often ridiculed for his thick arms, and this shortcoming was exposed, so he was quite embarrassed, and sneered: "It's fatter, so that Madame can laugh." ”

"I think it's plump well." Mrs. Ning was rarely interested, so she asked her to take down a box from the shelf of the military tent, and opened it to see that it was a silver arm.

This arm is engraved with a rosette pattern, which has a peculiar shape, not like a product of the Central Plains.

"You wear it for me."

Yuehua took it off and put it on his arm, just stuck in the upper arm part, this arm has the effect of modification, and when I put it on, I don't think Yuehua's arm is thick, but I feel round and good-looking, in fact, a woman's figure is not absolutely perfect, and no matter how good-looking it is, it is inseparable from the modification of clothes and jewelry.

"I'm too old to wear this kind of thing, so I'll give it to you." Mrs. Ning didn't know what was wrong, and suddenly asked Yuehua to give her a pair of arms, Yuehua suddenly remembered the hairpin that Ning Yuan gave her a few days ago, and suddenly had a premonition.

After preparing for a few days, I began to start the matter of dividing the palace maids, and sure enough, as Mrs. Ning expected, because of Mrs. Ding's words, most of the young palace maids were willing to match people, and almost all of them signed up.

Mrs. Ning is not good at opposing it clearly, if she tells the truth, Mrs. Ning is equivalent to openly slapping the face of the army, and the commander of the army knows about it, Mrs. Ning offended the commander of the army, and those little palace maids came to sign up, and Mrs. Ning's face was green. Mrs. Ning had to give her eyes to Mrs. Chen, who was not easy to talk about the matter, and euphemistically said something bad about the early match, but with little effect.

In the past few days, several people's faces have not looked good.

Mrs. Chen had to comfort Mrs. Ning: "People who get married early also have the advantage of getting married early, those people have to starve if they can't finish their work in the weaving room, and they don't have the next meal, I look anxious, so I might as well send them out." ”

"I used to think so, it's all divided to save more trouble, nothing at all, but that person made such a fuss, annoying! There's so much going on now! I have so many things to do all day long, who is willing to revolve around this matter every day" Mrs. Ning has a bad temper, this will be so angry that she almost blurted out scolding!

is also a palace maid, although she is not talking about herself, but Yuehua is still a little embarrassed to stand next to her.

Since the palace maid came to make trouble that day, Ning Yuan has to take time to come to Mrs. Ning every day, although every time he comes, he will be scolded by Mrs. Ning, but he still comes every day to 'scold', although Ning Yuan is shy but sensitive, he immediately noticed that the atmosphere was not quite right, and hurriedly rounded the field: "My mother is like this, I was tortured by her 'trouble-free' when I was a child, I fell to the ground and was not allowed to cry, I got up by myself; You don't know I was less than two years old at the time. ”

Mrs. Ning squinted at Ning Yuan: "You are less than two years old, you know all these things." ”

"I listened to my nurse." Ning Yuan said again: "I was miserable when I was a child. As he spoke, he deliberately made a pitiful appearance to make people laugh.

Yuehua was amused by Ning Yuan's stupidity, and Yuehua found that Ning Yuan had a good temper and a simple and kind personality.

Mrs. Ning couldn't hold back her laughter: "Silly son, you are like this, it seems that I have not sharpened you enough!" In the end, he found out that his tone was wrong just now, and he was angry at people for no reason, and explained: "You guys! I'm not very old, and it's hard for me to make arrangements: it's good to keep you still working in the Quartermaster's Department, you can't work in the Quartermaster Department for the rest of your life! Some palace maids are nightmares, they can't do work, they often can't finish their work, they have no rations, and they have a full meal! I can't look past it, it's hard in the army, and I can't raise idlers! O man! You have to look forward, although you are young, if you are separated, you will have to take on the responsibility of a family, and it is not a matter for people to always be in the same place.

On the one hand, it is true that it saves me trouble by dividing you out, but it is not to save trouble by dividing the palace maids like this in the first place. This time, Mrs. Ding made a fuss, and there were more of these things in vain, but in fact, the result was not the same! ”

Yuehua had to say: "This ......" In fact, her thoughts had already flown out.

Yuehua watched the twelve or thirteen-year-old palace maids come to sign up, just for those few acres of land, and when she turned around, she found that there was not so much land at all, and she didn't know how they felt.

Think about Mrs. Ning's words again:

To be honest, she still had hope when she came to the border, hoping that life would be better than in the palace and she would be able to turn over. As a result, she found that food, clothing, housing and transportation were worse than in the palace, she still felt that although the palace was good now, there was no hope in the future, and the old palace people were oblique, although the days were temporarily hard outside, but they could still create a piece of heaven by themselves, and there was still hope, and now they see this situation...... It turned out that it was a good thing to think.

Yuehua suddenly felt a little sad.

A carriage was parked in front of a house in Orchid Alley, Suxian County, and a man about forty years old got out of the carriage, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and after a while, a woman wearing a red tunic dress, a water snake waist, and willow eyebrows also got out of the car.

"What do you think of here?" The man put his arm around the woman and smiled, "I'm not bad to you!" ”

"Thank you, Lang-kun." The woman replied timidly, but her eyes looked at the house carefully.
