Yuehua turned around and went to the pastry shop to buy two catties of pastries, and then went to the fruit shop, moved a big watermelon, and went to the tail alley, as the name suggests, the tail alley is narrower and narrower the further back it goes, like a tail, and the inside is twisted and turned, so it is called the tail alley.

Yuehua walked into a family, the door opened by this daughter, the man of this family, Liu Cripple, a former enemy spy in the army, was injured on the battlefield, broke his leg and was replaced, selling tea in the city, and because of his cheerful and neat temperament, he listened to him in the city, and he had a little prestige in the city.

As soon as Yuehua entered the door, the old lady of the family came out, the old lady's gray hair, the voice was like a bell, and she walked like a fly: "Daughter, you are here!" She glanced at Yuehua's outfit: "This is married!" ”

The fate of the old lady and Yuehua has to start from when Yuehua entered the city, at that time the city gate was under martial law, they arrived at the city gate and did not enter the door immediately, waited at the door for a long time, the old lady of the Liu family died and the old wife went to the border pass to take refuge in her son, and there was no entanglement on the way, begging all the way, and also stranded at the city gate, the old lady was dressed in tatters and did not eat, Yuehua looked at pity and gave her a steamed bun, at that time with Yanhong and the two of them, Yanhong wanted to hook up with the sergeant who sent them, and left Yuehua behind, Yuehua had to go alone, the old lady was a lot old, she didn't know the way, and she followed the palace maids into the city together, and Yuehua partnered with the old lady. When she arrived in the city, Yan Hong hooked up with the sergeant, Yuehua walked beside her, the sergeant and Yan Hong teased and laughed at each other, and teased Yuehua a few words from time to time, Yan Hong and Yuehua were companions, and the sergeant was the little head of the escort team, Yuehua couldn't afford to offend, it was not good to refuse clearly, Yuehua didn't want to follow Yanhong all the way, glanced at the old lady, decided to be a good person to the end, and helped the old lady go to the city to find her son, and met Liu Cripple.

Later, Yuehua helped Mrs. Ning to do chores, although Liu Cripple was no longer in the army, but he also did some business in the army, and occasionally walked in the army, just met Yuehua at Mrs. Ning's place, and went back to tell the old lady at home, the old lady was grateful for Yuehua's grace of a steamed bun, and brought something over, Yuehua would help the old lady find her son purely to avoid Yanhong, and be a good person by the way, she was eager to return the good thing, there was nothing in the army to give back, she got a needle, made a wipe forehead support, and Liu lame took it over.

Yuehua nodded embarrassedly.

"Come in and sit!" As he spoke, he yelled at his granddaughter: "There are guests at home, don't call your mother yet!" Lying at home! ”

Second Sister Liu listened and turned around and went back to call her mother.

Yuehua hurriedly said politely: "When I came, I asked Brother Liu for help, and I said a few words to you, so I don't need to be polite." ”

The old lady immediately smiled and said, "He went out to eat and drink, I'm afraid he won't come back for a while, you go to my house and sit down." As he spoke, he welcomed Yuehua in and took out a plate of snow dates from the cupboard in his room.

Not long after Yuehua came, she also knew that the master's house here took snow dates out to entertain you as a distinguished guest: "You are really polite." ”

"Taste it, I bought it yesterday and only ate one."

Yuehua took one in his hand, this thing was wrapped in a layer of crisp clothes on the outside, and the silver wire was hollowed out inside, like a dragon's whiskers, as if he had a bite of crumbs, Yuehua carefully continued to eat with his left hand, and wiped his hands clean with a handkerchief after eating.

……

Older people, very lonely, it is rare for someone to come to the door to talk with them, there are more words, pull Yuehua and talk for a long time, it is easy to wait for Liu Cripple, who is full of alcohol, Liu Cripple is missing half of his right leg, lame and on crutches is still walking like flying, with the same big voice as the old lady, and drank a little wine, slightly excited, the voice is so loud that it deaf the ears.

"I'm here to see the old lady, and I'm here to ask you for something."

"What do you want or not, you just have to say something!"

Yuehua told Liu Cripple about Hang Ju's slander against her.

Liu lame laughed when he heard this: "What's so difficult about this, why do you go around in circles and beg me to come here, don't you let He Heng go to her man and talk to her man and it's over!?" ”

Yuehua frowned, she just didn't want He Heng to know, she always felt that she would be embarrassed in front of He Heng, of course she couldn't tell the actual reason, so she had to talk about him left and right: "There is no need to bother him about the things I can solve, and it doesn't make sense to suppress people at the top of the official rank, so I don't have to give him a fall." ”

Liu Cripple drank too much, his head was not as bright as before, and he smiled: "It's too!" I've made a note of this. ”

Yuehua looked at the time: "I still have to rush back, so I won't say much, I'll thank you another day." ”

The old lady chased out of the house: "I'd better stay for dinner and then leave!" ”

"I'm staying here, what will I do at home!?" He smiled at the old lady and said, "Next time, I'll bring my family to eat with you." ”

The old lady regretted: "After all, there is a family." As he spoke, he went into the door and put the saucer of snow dates into a cloth bag, and asked Yuehua to take it: "It's nothing good, take it back and taste it." ”

Yuehua refused for a while, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to take it.

Xue Jujube took it home, knowing that Chestnut loved to eat snacks and gave it to her directly, Chestnut took Xue Jujube and asked Yuehua what she was going to do, this method Yuehua hadn't completely thought about and said: "I'm looking for someone to help me keep an eye on Hang Ju, what to do when the time comes, I can always catch her handle." ”

"Madame is better than me, when I encounter this kind of thing, I just want to go up and shave my ears."

Yuehua sneered in her heart: "You have been in the palace for a few years, and you also know that the fan ear scraper is the most useless." ”

Yuehua is determined to be a good wife, it is common for He Heng not to come back for three or five days, but whether he comes back or not, Yuehua will prepare his things, He Heng did not come back for dinner, Yuehua looked at this and estimated that he would not come back, but still found his change of clothes and put them on the hanger, washed himself, lit the lamp, and sat on the bed to do needlework.

Yuehua didn't expect He Heng to come back in the middle of the night, He Heng loves to be clean, and he must change his clothes when he comes back at night, which is why Yuehua has to prepare clothes for him.

He Heng touched the black and entered the door, Yuehua slept shallowly, heard the footsteps, sat up, He Heng said softly: "You sleep yours!" ”

Yuehua didn't listen to it but got up, lit a candle, changed his clothes for him, threw the dirty clothes into the basin, put them outside, and got up to wash the chestnuts tomorrow morning.

He Heng looked at Yuehua's busy appearance, he knew that this wife was very virtuous, at first he liked her thoughtfulness, stability and suppleness, and like most men, he hoped that his wife would be gentle and understanding.

But after a long time, I always feel that something is missing, about a little less closeness in my bones, she always seems to be looking at you from a place not far away, considering your thoughts, taking care of your feelings, but rarely mentioning herself, taking care of herself, and even taking care of you, never asking you for anything, and not being coquettish.

She doesn't say what she means, you can only guess what she means, sometimes she guesses correctly, she will show a happy look, if she doesn't guess correctly, she won't say anything, and in the end, you become cautious in front of her.

This kind of respect is like a layer of respect in the head.

For example, about her today, in the afternoon, Hongluan told Xu Fei, and Xu Fei mentioned it to herself.

Hongluan was afraid that because he didn't help Yuehua teach the three of them in the afternoon, Yuehua was unhappy, and inadvertently sued Xu Fei, Xu Fei hurt his wife, and turned to sue He Heng, hoping that He Heng could mediate from it, and don't let Yuehua have a problem with Hongluan.

He Heng was busy until late tonight, if he had been in the army before, when he heard this, he hurriedly found someone to verify, knowing that it was because of himself, Yuehua was talked about, he felt very uncomfortable, and hurriedly ran back, Yuehua himself was like a child, He Heng didn't know what to say.
