Chapter 55: The Great General of Dingguo (3)
The old lady is in charge, He Heng is in charge of the fire, Yuehua washes the vegetables, serves the dishes and arranges the dishes and chopsticks, the food is on the table, a large bowl of stewed tofu with green vegetables, a plate of braised pork cut thinly, a plate of bad fish, a plate of bacon fried dried bamboo shoots, and a plate of shredded beans and meat, fried shrimp, the old lady beckoned everyone to eat, the little maid brought over a jar of wine, and the old general opened the stopper: "This is a ten-year-old Fenjiu." He sniffed at his nose.
"I told you that you don't drink much if you have Ah Heng here!" The old lady muttered.
"What are you babbling about, old woman! If I take two sips of wine, you can talk too, I'll just drink a little, there's someone here! I'm not allowed to drink yet! Yuehua first saw the old general and thought he was very majestic, but now she looks at him begging for wine...... Retract this sentence.
Yuehua didn't drink, and the old general and the old lady didn't ask her to drink, she and the old lady brought a bowl of rice to eat, and the old lady pointed to the fried shrimp: "You try this." Yuehua took the chopsticks and looked at the big bowl of fried shrimp and half a bowl of chili peppers, and couldn't get off the chopsticks when she looked at it, but she barely caught one, the skin was broken, and the shrimp was spicy and numb on the tongue.
"It's humid here, it's hard to eat some chili peppers, it's hard to have cold legs, you see my left foot is rheumatism, and the old cold legs can't be cured, so you have to smoke it with mugwort leaves every night." The old lady enthusiastically advertised her cooking, and began to chatter.
ā¦ā¦
In the end, He Heng came over to relieve the siege: "This is good, there is only a little chili pepper on it, and the grass carp has no spines, you can taste it." "The old lady loves chili peppers, and when the bad fish is taken out of the jar, she must mix a little chili, and there is a little chili on it.
Yuehua took the chili pepper from He Heng, only to hear him whisper in her ear: "You pick up the chili pepper on this, this one is not spicy." His breath brushed the tips of Yuehua's ears, Yuehua blushed, looked at the bad fish in the bowl, slowly picked up the chopsticks little by little, and ate it in his mouth only for a little spicy taste, the palace maid's meals do not put oil, do not put seasonings, only salt, afraid that there is a taste in the mouth to smoke the master, Yuehua has never eaten anything with chili peppers when he enters the palace, and he still feels very spicy when he eats a little.
Yuehua and the two of them finished eating first, two of them drank while drinking while talking about idle articles, a meal has just begun, anyway, there is no hurry to go back, the old lady mentioned yƬ to play the finch card, the finch card Yuehua is will, the card skills are acceptable, the aunts in the palace used to play cards three missing one, when there is a shortage of people to call you on you have to go up to accompany the play, these aunts hold the power of life and death of Yuehua them, and can not win their money, every time you have to lose a few hundred Wen, Yuehua loves money, every time you lose money it hurts, although you can play but you don't like to play cards in your heart, afraid of losing money. This time Yuehua didn't expect to play cards, this time there was no money at all, the old lady heard that Yuehua would play cards, and came to be interested: "My old lady borrowed you a hanging money, you accompany me to play cards, and your little girl accompanies my old woman." ā
Yuehua knew that she couldn't resist, she was pulled onto the table, there were four people on the table, Yuehua sat at the end of the old lady, today's little girl in the blue lotus skirt sat on the old lady's hand, and there was a grandmother in her forties sitting opposite the old lady, the four of them began to play, the little girl kept feeding the old lady cards, and the grandmother on the opposite side kept telling jokes, and a card game was also lively.
After playing a circle, Yuehua found that the old lady didn't know how to play cards at all, a hand of cards played casually, often played 80,000 and finally the cards and 80,000, he touched four and had to eat four, Yuehua looked at the appearance of the other two to know that the two were used to it. This is to meet a person who likes to play cards is definitely not willing to play cards with her, people who like to play cards win or lose is secondary, enjoy the process of counting cards, with will not play, the other party is a mess, their own side can not touch the opposite side of the road at all, play boring, but Yuehua anyway playing cards are to accompany others, familiar with a few hundred dollars on the end, it doesn't matter.
The old lady doesn't know how to play cards, often unconsciously feed the cards to Yuehua, Yuehua is not good luck today, Yuehua on the table was also prepared to lose a few hundred dollars to accompany the prince to read, but I didn't expect to play two laps down, when the cards were scattered, I also won a few hundred dollars, Yuehua returned the thousand dollars to the old lady, the old lady refused to accept it, Yuehua also knew that people would not take back the money, so they didn't bother, so they took it themselves.
Sleeping at night Yuehua when Ah Ran did not sleep the old lady's blue yarn cupboard, slept in a guest room, the next day, originally planned to leave early in the morning, the old lady did not let go, had breakfast, originally planned to start in the middle of the morning, the old lady was not happy, had to pull Yuehua to play the finch card, the old lady lost a lot of money to Yuehua to do it! In this way, Yuehua has been missing for a day, but fortunately, she is now borrowed to the military doctor's office, and Chen Po only asks her whereabouts, otherwise it will be bad!
Over there, He Heng was dragged by the general to go fishing, and couldn't go, had lunch at noon, the old lady went to rest, and then let the two of them go, as usual Yuehua rode a horse, He Heng led the horse in front of the road, walked to the tea stall last time, bought two bowls of coarse tea, changed horses, rented a boat at the ferry and turned back.
The two got off the boat, there were many people in the barracks at this time, in order to be afraid of bumping into people, He Heng mentioned that Yuehua would go first, and he would arrive later, Yuehua saw Ning Yuan waiting for someone at the gate of the barracks, and he was very surprised to see Yuehua, and asked with a red face: "Why are you ......?"
"I'm taking a leave of absence to go out on errands." The palace maid was not allowed to leave the barracks, and she didn't ask for leave at all, Yuehua lied.
Ning Yuan: "Oh. After a while, he said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, you ......" and he didn't seem to know what to say halfway through.
Yuehua is not a person who can speak, she rejected him last time, not to mention that she and He Heng also broke Ning Yuan and Yuemei last time, and she didn't know what to say at this time: "If you want to say anything, just say it!" After Yuehua finished speaking, she felt that her words were hard, how could people be embarrassed to say it, so she had to say again: "I see that you seem to have something to say." ā
When Ning Yuan didn't see Yuehua, she felt that she had a lot to say to her, but when she saw it, she didn't know what to say, so she had to lower her head: "Actually, I don't have anything to say, just say hello to you." ā
This politeness was too embarrassing, and Yuehua had to reply: "Greetings to you." "Month
Hua used to have a good impression of Ning Yuan, and there was still talk and laughter at this time, but after that incident, the two were so embarrassed that they had nothing to say when they met!
He Heng saw Yuehua and Ning Yuan standing face to face, neither of them talking, but they didn't walk away, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Ning Yuan, you are waiting here, are you looking for me something?" ā
Ning Yuan glanced at Yuehua and then at He Heng, what a coincidence! They come on front and back!
"It's not me looking for you, it's Brother Xu looking for you." Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment and replied to He Heng.
He Heng said to Yuehua: "Let's separate here, you go back first, I still have something to do." ā
Yuehua couldn't wait, and said goodbye to He Heng and Ning Yuan and left.
Ning Yuan looked at Yuehua's back, they were really still together, no wonder Yuehua returned the things to him.
