Chapter Seventy-Three: I Want to Eat Well
Fusu didn't return to the mansion for several days, which made Momiji very uneasy. If he doesn't come back when he gets old, who will he have children with? Thinking of his toned body, Momiji became more and more unable to control himself. She decided to look for him in the little courtyard outside.
The yard had already been bought, and Fusu liked those two ancient trees, so he would stay there for a few days when he wanted to be quiet. Momiji couldn't understand this man, there were so many houses in the mansion, which house he wanted to stay in quietly for a while, and no one dared to disturb him, why did he move outside alone?
Sometimes relatives come to the door and ask where the son has gone, but the family doesn't know how to answer. If it is said that they are hiding in Qingjing, outsiders still don't think that their wives and concubines are not in harmony, which makes men uneasy.
Which of the polygamous families is truly peaceful, but it is only a superficial mess and gas.
Now everyone else has children, and they can tease children if they have nothing to do, but she can only tease dogs.
If you didn't like it in the first place, why marry her?
Coming to the "outer house" with resentful red leaves, she stood still at the door and went to ask the maid to knock on the door.
The door opened, and it was a neat old man who answered the door, he looked up and down, and asked kindly, "Are you two looking for?" ”
Momiji is not angry, who doesn't know her in the mansion, and she is an outsider when she arrives here.
The maid said indignantly, "When did you come?" Why don't you even know the master? We are from the mansion, and this is Mrs. Ru, the son. ”
The man took a step back when he heard this, and said with a smile on his face: "I don't know if Mrs. Ru has arrived, it's too rude." Come in. Childe went out and hasn't come back yet. ”
Out of the house? Momiji stopped and asked, "Where have you been, do you know?" ”
The man laughed and said, "I don't know." When he went out, he was followed by Mu Mu and the two guards, and the villain only took care of the affairs in the courtyard. ”
Momiji snorted and walked inside dissatisfied. The canopy of the large trees outside the courtyard is large, and the yard is also shaded. In addition to the smaller and older houses, it is really a good place. I'm afraid many people in Xianyang don't know that he lives here, right? It's going to be quiet.
There was a "cooing" sound from the corner of the west wall. Momiji and the maid looked over there, and it was a pigeon loft with white, black, and gray pigeons, flapping their wings from time to time, or picking up something to eat.
Momiji walked a few steps to that side, and the loft was clean, but it still smelled of feces.
"This is raised by Childe?" Momiji asked. Isn't he trying to be quiet? Can you be quiet with these toys?
"Yes." The doorman didn't say much.
Momiji sighed, it's boring! He has pigeons and she has dogs, so why can't they cooperate to raise a child?
She walked over, grabbed a handful of rice from a small bowl placed beside her, and scattered half of it into the wooden trough where the pigeons were eating. When the little things saw the rice, they ate it happily one by one. The feathers are shiny, the eyes are shiny, and they are cute.
"Hey, Madame!" The man's voice was a little anxious, and he looked like he wanted to stop it but didn't dare to stop it.
Momiji took the shelf and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The maid and her are also expressions. It seems that this "outer house" really doesn't take them seriously.
The doorman paused, probably thinking about how to say it more appropriately, after all, this is the master. Just as he was embarrassed, the door rang, he hurriedly ran over, opened the door, and it was Gongzi and Mu Mu and their party.
The doorman hurriedly reported in a low voice: "Childe, Mrs. Ru is here." ”
Fusu looked up, who is this Mrs. Ru? What are they looking for? Is there a hurry?
Momiji also looked over, with a sad face. Fusu sighed, threw the reins of the horse to Mumu, and walked towards the courtyard. Seeing Fusu's impatient look, Momiji felt a little apprehensive, but was he impatient and about to retreat? If you marry her, you have to give her an explanation.
She hurried up and greeted with a smile: "Childe is back?" But tired? Xiao Ju quickly poured a cup of tea for his son. ”
Xiao Ju reflexively responded, but looked around a little blankly, where is the tea to pour? This wasn't the mansion she'd been familiar with.
Mu Mu took a few steps back nimbly and walked towards the kitchen. Xiao Ju also hurried to follow. Fortunately, the response was fast and could not embarrass the owner.
Fusu stood in the courtyard and thought for a while, originally he wanted to go back to the study, but when Momiji came, let's go to the living room. As he was stepping, he heard the cheerful cries of the pigeons, and he looked at it suspiciously, and walked over.
Well? How about feeding at this time? You have to starve them to let them know the importance of going home to eat, so that they can return smoothly.
"Rich!" He shouted. The doorman hurried over.
"Didn't I tell you? Don't just feed them and wait until I get back. ”
Xiao Han said that to let the pigeons and the owner close, listen to the owner, ask the owner to feed them to eat and drink. He is very strict, and sometimes when he wants to go out, he will tell Mu Mu to do it, and he will never fake the hands of others.
Youcai bent over and said in embarrassment: "Yes, Mrs., I didn't have time-"
Momiji also came over, and when he saw Fusu's unhappy face, he hurriedly looked for something and said, "They are so cute, Childe likes me to raise a few in the mansion." ”
Fusu shook his head, wanting to get angry but feeling that it wasn't worth it, forget it. He tried to say as plain as possible: "If you want to come in the future, you can come, but don't feed them food and drink, only Mu Mu and I can do this, understand?" ”
Momiji's face changed when he "brushed" the ground, and he dared to love because of feeding the pigeons. What a big deal! Is she really not at all status?
"Childe, am I not even as good as a pigeon?"
Fusu shook his head, in front of his subordinates, he didn't want to break with her. "Let's go back to the house."
Momiji was on fire, but Fusu had already walked forward, and she could only lose her face if she stayed and got angry. She is also from a good family, and she still knows the severity.
Entering the living room, Fusu asked, "Come here today, is there something wrong?" ”
Momiji said aggrievedly: "I'm looking for my husband, must there be something?" How many days have I not seen his people? ”
Fusu was speechless for a while. After a while, he said, "I'll go back in a few days, and you can go back first." ”
Momiji said angrily: "I won't go back, I'll be where you are, and no one will try to drive me away." ”
"It's not okay here, don't pester me, I have something, sometimes I want to be quiet, you're distracting me." Fusu said as well as he could.
"I don't pester you, you do your thing, I'm just here waiting for you to come back."
"No, I can't be when you're here, you still have to go back."
Momiji is on fire: "Is she just there?" Aren't you annoyed with her when she's there? ”
At the mention of "her", Fusu was a little angry. The woman went to Xiaohan's shop to demonstrate without knowing anything, he didn't want to mention it again, but he didn't expect her to be energetic. He looked at her coldly: "Don't mention her affairs, the two of us are talking about the two of us, don't trouble her if you have nothing to do." ”
Red leaves became even more popular: "You used to always go back to the mansion, but it was because of her that you didn't go back." Why can't you mention her? She's not a good woman like that! But a craftsman! Lowly craftsman! ”
Fusu stood up with a "snap" and walked over to Momiji, Momiji trembled with fright, is this to beat someone?
Seeing the other party's frightened look, Fusu endured it, and said with a blue face: "Do you know what she said about you?" I asked her, what did you do to her? She said, nothing, you kept your demeanor. Here's what she said. You see what kind of demeanor you have, what do you say about others? How are you noble? Why are others lowly? Don't you understand how I feel with you? When have you ever spoken and acted for the sake of others, even if you have grievances, but you said this to her in front of me, do you understand my feelings? After you left, what did the people in this courtyard say about you, do you want to know? What do the people in the mansion say about you, do you care? I snubbed you, I understand that you have grievances, I will give you a child one day if you want to have a child, but you can't give what I want, and I won't want to get it from you. None of us can go back to the past and do it all over again, there's no point in complaining, you better find something you want to do and do it, don't spend all your energy on me, okay? ”
Momiji can't hold it anymore, and Fusu's character will never talk to his family like this. He will definitely not be embarrassed if he can get by, and today really annoyed him. She nodded her head randomly, not knowing whether to say goodbye or agree, in short, she nodded and turned around to go out in a panic, knocked her head on the door frame, and couldn't care less.
The maid Xiaoju took a tray, she was going to go in, but when she heard the conversation between the two, it seemed that the atmosphere was not right, and at this time, the subordinates still had to avoid it, so she listened quietly outside. I didn't expect the master to come out, so I had to look left and right, put the tray in a place where I could put it, and followed out in a panic.
The house was quiet, the yard was quiet, Fusu breathed a sigh of relief in the house, no wonder Xiao Han wanted to avoid his big family, he was tired himself. It's ridiculous, I'm that piece of flesh and bones, they used to have some fights, and they were annoyed, but they didn't feel tired like they do now.
Xiao Han said that maybe one day she loves him to a certain extent, and she will take this step for him to suffer some grievances, but when will she be able to do it?
Marrying the prince is wronged, only a woman like her in the world can have this strange idea, right?
But why can't he do without her?
Did she come to Xianyang to torture him?
Grievances are grievances, and things have to be done. In addition to running around the construction site of the imperial mausoleum every few days, Fusu concentrates on training pigeons and running official kilns these days.
In the past, Fusu had a lot of contact with the stewards of these kilns, and procured a lot of things for the palace and the palace annexes in various places, but now he wants to intervene in the supervision of the official kiln ceramics, so he has to have a good relationship with them. With his experience over the years, it is not enough to rely on orders and force, the craftsman relies on craftsmanship, if he has a grievance and his subordinates do not help to deceive you, you can't do anything. Because you are a layman, and they are insiders.
The largest official kiln is called the Accumulation Fortune Workshop, and he is going here today to see their craftsmanship and production capacity. The terracotta figurines used in the imperial tomb were produced here. Every time he walked into their large courtyard and saw the life-like terracotta figurines, Fusu had a feeling of isolation from the world. It seems that he is dead, like a wandering spirit, and those terracotta figurines, they really do what his father wants, in the underground world to protect his father or accompany him in the north and south of the war.
He thought that if he really died, he would definitely not want these terracotta figurines, and if these things could protect people, they would definitely be angry or rebel. People are very tired when they live, for food and drink, for fame and fortune, for ideals, for their relatives, until they die, they have to prevent others from dividing up the gold and silver, and prevent others from whipping the corpse and digging up the grave, and death is restless. It's too boring and too boring.
But he can't tell anyone about these thoughts, especially not his father. He only hopes that he will live a long life and be calm in everything, and there will be no ending where there are no tigers in the mountains and monkeys are overlords as Xiao Han said.
"Childe is here, the little one is polite." Zhang San, who was in charge, came over to say hello.
The handrail waved his hand: "I come here often, and I am also an acquaintance, so let's avoid it!" ”
"How can it, no matter how familiar you are, you can't mess with your humility."
The armrest shook his head and smiled, let him go, but it was polite in front of people. There are many things to do on face, isn't it the same for yourself?
"Master Zhang, come with me, I want to see the highest level of craftsmanship in our Wealth Accumulation Workshop."
"Okay, come with me." Zhang Sangao happily responded and led the way in front.
He thought to himself, there must be another big order in the palace, and if it is done, he will have benefits to take. Not to mention anything else, since he took over the task of the terracotta figurines, others have different eyebrows and eyes when they see him.
Fusu squatted in the official kiln for an afternoon, talked a few words with the masters, and asked some questions. He was originally aware of the situation, so he asked if he didn't understand. I have been with Xiaohan for a long time, and sometimes I think about some related issues, the quality of the mud, the difficulty of molding, the degree of dryness, the mastery of the kiln fire, ......, in short, the questions asked are not considered laymen, moreover, he also asked some gossip about how many people in the family, how many people are received, where is the hometown, the situation of parents, wives and children, etc., originally chatted while watching other people's work, but let those craftsmen sigh and move. said that Childe is really a good person who is sympathetic to the people's feelings.
Fusu encouraged them to do well, saying that in the future, the kiln will develop greatly, and everyone's income will be better in the future.
Coming out of the wealth accumulation workshop, Fu Su wanted to go to see Xiao Han, although this girl was angry, but she really wanted to see it. But looking at the sky, it's almost time for the shops to close. He walked around there with a glimmer of hope, and sure enough, it was the black hair who was keeping vigil on the door panel, and he was disappointed in his heart. At this time, she must be dealing with a bite of food alone, tired for a day, who still has the energy to cook, why do you say she is suffering?
When I returned to my place, it was all dark. Smoke rises from the kitchen, and the smell of food comes from inside. Fusu was really hungry too.
Mu Mu came in excitedly, "Childe, Childe, look." ”
He was holding a pigeon in his hand, and a small strip of cloth was tied to the pigeon's leg, and Fusu's heart was "pounding", which was the one given to Xiao Han when he walked the horse in the morning, Xiao Han said let's do an experiment, not necessarily, maybe it will fly to other places to make people stew.
He untied the strip of cloth attentively, unfolded it, and saw that on it was a small bowl drawn by Xiao Han, a pair of chopsticks, a small fish and a vegetable, with four small words, "Eat well".
Fusu looked at the strip of cloth again and again, and put it in the bookcase with great importance. Then he grabbed the pigeon in Mu Mu's hand and gently stroked its shiny feathers. The little thing had dark eyes and looked at him innocently. Fusu's heart instantly softened, he put it on the coffee table, fed it water with his own teacup, the little thing may not be used to this new appliance, lowered his head and drank a little, and shook its head again, and the water splashed Fusu's body. Fuka gently grabbed it, walked into the courtyard, and put it among her companions. The pigeons were "cooing" and cheering.
"Mumu, it's time to eat, I want to eat well."
