Chapter 266: Eat Eat, Eat, Eat.
It seems that the blessing is a little late, but the heart is not too late...... Boom!
Today is Mother's Day, and I wish the girls a happy holiday.
------Off topic------
Xia Chuqi frowned, looked at his line of sight, and saw that the coquettish proprietress did not bring her tricky food, but led a man over with a smile-
He laughed, "I said there was something to look at, and you will see it right away." ”
"Confess!" She was furious.
"The girl is so powerful, I am willing to bow down, master."
This girl often said to beat him, but there were only a few tricks in total, either the monkey stealing the peach or the sable cicada worshipping the moon...... After all, there is no trick to see people. Zhao Ru frowned when she heard this, pinched her hand under the table, and looked in the direction of the proprietress with a pout.
At the beginning of the summer, the roots of the seven teeth were sour, "Old rules! ”
Zhao Zhu, "...... How to beat? ”
Xia Chuqi snorted, "Master, can I beat you?" ”
Zhao Zhu's lips hooked, "There is something good-looking." ”
She gritted her teeth, "What's so nice about her?" ”
Zhao Jun was speechless, staring straight at her, "What do you look good at?" ”
"What do you see her doing? Look at me. ”
Xia Chuqi snorted coldly, waved his hand, and watched the proprietress twist her waist and go down, before glaring at him fiercely.
Zhao Zhu said "um", looked over, and found that her eyes were full of lethality.
"Sir!" Xia Chuqi's eyes glanced at him.
The corners of Zhao Zhu's mouth twitched, his eyes swept over the comfortable Xia Chuqi, and seeing that she was still talking about one dish after another, he unexpectedly looked at the almost petrified proprietress again, and his eyes sank slightly.
"......" Is this simple and casual?
"Well, first one person has a bowl of meat and rice porridge, the porridge should be cooked into soft rice with white rice first, and then mixed with chicken juice and shrimp juice soup, and the cooked meat should be chopped into pieces, like the size of beans, plus bamboo shoots, fragrant grass, pine and other things, cut them together finely, and make soup with rice, boil and boil ......"
"You say." The proprietress pricked up her ears.
"When you're tired of walking, just eat something simple."
is a wife at home, and when she goes out, she becomes a girl, and Xia Chuqi is very helpless about her situation. But the girl is also dignified, since the old man asked the girl to order, the girl can't be polite, she glanced at Zhao Zhu, and looked at the coquettish proprietress with a smile.
“……”
Zhao Jun looked sideways and looked at Xia Chuqi, "Ask the master's girl." ”
Bingyi smiled and asked Zhao Zhu's opinion, "Master, what do you want to eat?" ”
The proprietress is a person who can blow, fly in the sky, swim in the water, and make it by the imperial chef in the palace, there is nothing she can't do.
"Yo, don't look at our small shop, as long as you can order it, we can get it, not to mention the flavor of this northern land, it is the delicacy in the palace...... There are also one or two flavors. ”
"What do you have?"
"How many people are eating?"
was praised by men for being good-looking, and women were happy, and the proprietress raised her head and looked at Bing's eyes, which gave her more brilliance. She happily turned around and shouted Xiao Er, and soon two boys came out to arrange horses for them, and the proprietress who had already been conquered by Bingyi's charm welcomed them into the inner hall herself.
The proprietress looked at Zhao Zhu with a pair of merry peach blossom eyes. Zhao Zhu didn't answer her, only Bingyi stepped forward and smiled crookedly, "With such a beautiful boss, naturally she wants to live in the hotel." ”
"How many masters, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
The group was muttering, and a woman came out in the room, with a flower cloth wrapped around her head, and her outfit was not luxurious, but it was simple and clean, and her fair skin and bewitching figure also wore a graceful and elegant appearance. Men pay attention to bearing, women pay attention to charm, this proprietress gave Xia Chuqi's first impression, very similar to the gold inlaid jade in "Dragon Gate Inn".
"You didn't see it, there is no business to do here, let's guess it's the head of the customer."
"Is this boss still in business? The door of the inn is not happy to ram the soil firmly, how can this make people live? ”
"Damn, what's this called?"
The road to the inn was getting narrower and more muddy. When I arrived at the outside of the inn, it was already thick, and the horse's hooves were so deep in the soft mud that it was difficult to pull out, which caused several people to scold.
"Okay."
In the past, C1 often traveled between the north and the south, and was very familiar with the place. These days, they try to avoid the big towns, and choose small places to live, just to avoid getting into trouble. Zhao Zhu looked at the past, in front of him is a piece of endless foothills, the season has not yet entered the summer, the mountain is green and green, yellow and withered, it looks a little sad, but the Taoyuan Inn is built in an oasis, just wandering at the foot of the withered yellow mountain, it does look a bit of "paradise" look.
"Master, there is Taoyuan Inn ahead." C-yi pointed ahead, "Let's stay here for a while tonight, right?" ”
From the beginning of leaving Beiping Mansion, they changed out of their military uniforms and fancy clothes, and dressed up as ordinary merchants. Xia Chuqi specially put a fake beard on Zhao Zhu's lips, dressed up as his little girl, and jokingly called him "master" with others. Along the way, the drama of the "girl" flirting with the "master" was frequently staged, but it was also quite fun, even on the way to walk, she also felt wonderful, so that every time she thought of the upcoming beacon war and the "imperial power struggle" that would last for a long time, her heart sank.
On the muddy official road, the horse's hoof prints are extremely clear.
At this time, the sky is getting dark, and the entire sky seems to be covered with a black cloth, and there is no starlight or moon.
Three days later, a group of people, more than 20 horses, has arrived at the border of Dayan, and one day will be able to reach Yinshan.
~
She knew that there was not much time left for Zhao Bottle.
At the beginning of the summer, there was a chill in the heart.
What kind of situation can make a prince commit suicide?
This time, he was not caught, but he died directly.
Another vassal king has an accident.
C, "The emperor said that Zhao Dong, the king of Xiang, recruited troops and horses in the domain, and had the intention of rebellion...... The imperial court wanted to investigate the facts and then make a decision, but when the king of Xiang heard the news, he committed suicide at home...... Now the imperial court has cleared the palace of the king of Xiang, and the family of the king of Xiang has been raided...... Only one young son escaped. The imperial court is hunting down the young son of the king of Xiang, and Zhang Bang warned that if there is a private possession among the people, once it is found, it will be punished as the same crime......"
The emperor's list is an announcement that is posted only when the country has major events and important events. Hearing this, Zhao Zhu's face sank slightly, "What's the matter?" ”
Standing under Zhao Zhu's horse, he prayed, "Master, the imperial list is being posted at the gate of the city. ”
After a while, Bingyi returned.
After Zhao Zhu finished giving the order, Bingyi nodded, got off the horse, and followed the group of people to the city gate. From afar, Xia Chuqi looked at the people at the gate of the city, the more and more they were surrounded, the tighter and tighter they became, and in the dense crowd, there seemed to be officers and soldiers shouting something, but unfortunately she couldn't understand a word.
"Check it out."
Originally, they were going to bypass the official road outside the city, but they couldn't help but stop when they saw this.
With an apologetic smile, she was about to change the subject, when she suddenly saw the people on the official road, all of them trotting, and rushed to the city gate in a hurry. Not far in front of them was a city and county, but it was not under the jurisdiction of Beiping Prefecture.
In a comfortable mood, she said casually, but when she said that she hadn't heard Zhao Zhu's voice for a long time, she reacted, this sentence is too heavy at present. When everything was ready, she owed Dongfeng, and she was completely pouring cold water on Zhao Zhu's troops.
After thinking about it, she stroked her hair and chuckled, "Actually, master, I like the peaceful days now, and it would be good if I could stay in Yongping Mansion or Miaoyin Town forever." How comfortable it is for you and me, as well as our friends, to stay together, to see the green shoots in spring, to pick flowers in summer, to enjoy the yellow leaves in autumn and to make snow in winter? ”
That's just as well! Xia Chuqi sat in front of him, stroking the mane of the big bird with his palm, and after answering in agreement, he stared at him with some puzzlement, "Don't you say that the emperor is far away, even if it affects him, won't it be a long time later?" Who knows what it will be like then? ”
Just when she thought he wouldn't answer, he suddenly said, "Whether it's enough or not, it won't affect Chen Jing after all." ”
Zhao Jun didn't answer for a long time, and his eyes were level into the distance. On the vast land, the spring breeze blew through, stirring his hair, and his black cloak, adding an indescribable complexity and profundity to his cold face.
With a "chuckle" in her heart, she already understood, "Is the time you need enough?" ”
Zhao Jun glanced down at her, and his voice was surprisingly calm, "By the time Jingshi got the news, it would have been a month later. How long will it take for the will to be conveyed again? ”
"Zhao Mianze knows, what should I do if I pursue it?"
Riding leisurely on the horse, she thought about it for a moment, then turned back to ask him.
She is proud that she is a hooligan, and occasionally makes a little move, engages in a little conspiracy and trickery, but it is harmless, in front of Zhao Zhu's direct "brutal suppression" of Chen Jing, her hooligan skills are simply insignificant.
Hearing Zhao Zhu's arrangements in Miaoyin Town, Xia Chuqi let out a long breath.
"Master, you're really ruthless!"
~
She is a tortoise, gentle, slow, habitually evasive and withdrawn. If it weren't for Xiao Er's mouthfulness today, maybe she would have buried her heart forever, and she would never confess this love to Chen Jing until she died, and she would never dare to pierce this layer of window paper. But borrowing Xiao Er's mouth, she has nothing to hide, and she can only rush up.
Xiao Er doesn't understand, but she understands - the princess is forcing her.
Qinglan sighed slightly.
"How? Are you jealous of me? The captain has specially instructed me to take on this task. ”
Xiao Er snorted, his mouth cocked high.
Lao Meng nodded, glanced at Chen Jing, who had fallen asleep, and then turned his head to the ignorant Xiao Er, "With your virtue of not being able to hide things, the captain dares to give you the task?" ”
She sighed, "Your Highness and the princess are really a natural pair." ”
The person who knows Chen Jing best in the world is really Zhao Zhu, but this result really makes her not know whether to cry or laugh, Princess Jin ordered Xiao Er to take medicine once, in order to match her, and King Jin will also take medicine next time...... But to keep him? The two of them have a good understanding.
Lao Meng was helpless, so he avoided the important and said lightly, "What the master ordered, the medicine is in the wine, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be recognized, and the medicine given to the master of the horse has to be put on the wall of the bowl......"
"Old Meng, what's going on?"
She squatted down to hold his shoulder, looked up and asked Lao Meng.
Chen Jing's hand holding the door frame tightened, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and his body slowly slid down, leaning on the door frame, without saying a word. But Qinglan, who didn't understand the truth at all in advance, looked at the sudden turn of things and looked at Chen Jing, who no longer spoke, and felt a pain in her heart.
Lao Meng's dark face was slightly flushed, and he didn't deny it, nor did he shirk it. It's just that he stepped forward embarrassedly, stretched out his hand to help him, and said in a low voice: "Master Ma, the situation is tense, you can't go to the military camp." You should understand that the Lord is doing this to protect you, so that you don't fall into a dilemma and get into trouble in vain - this Miaoyin Town is beautiful, so you can be wronged here for a while for a while, right? ”
Didn't Xiao Er want to drug him? Why did you get involved with Lao Meng?
Such a peak and loop, Qinglan did not expect.
"It's okay......" Chen Jing didn't seem to notice that her title was inappropriate, he slowly turned his head, looked at Lao Meng with a glittering gaze, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "What kind of medicine did you give me?" ”
As soon as the people were in a hurry, they shouted out the old names.
"Brother Chen, what's wrong with you?" She nervously ran over to hold him.
Just as he was thinking about it, the back shook suddenly, as if he was unsteady on his feet, and held on to the door frame.
She and Chen Jing are afraid that they will have no chance in this life.
Without any further delay, Chen Jing said, hugged his fists and signaled to Lao Meng, Xiao Er, Xiao Liu and Lao Meng's daughter-in-law, turned around and strode out. Looking at his tall and long back, Qinglan's heart sank, and she sighed secretly, feeling that today was like a joke.
"It's okay, then Chen will take the first step."
Chen Jing's eyes flashed slightly, glanced at her, and nodded.
She got up, buried her head slightly, and said respectfully and politely: "If you go back to the horse master, the princess only entrusts me to accompany you to come over to hand over the grain." Now that it's done, I'm not going to go. I'll go straight home......"
If it weren't for the words of the first Xiaoer, Qinglan would not feel embarrassed, she also cherished the opportunity to be with Chen Jing, and was naturally willing to follow him to the military camp. But with Xiao Er's words in front, her heart was also naked in front of him, even if she loved him, her self-esteem would not allow her to follow him anymore.
Chen Jing clenched his fists and arched his hands, "No need, I know the way out, you continue to eat." With that, he frowned, turned his head quite uncomfortably, and looked at Qinglan, "Is Miss Qinglan going to the military camp with me, or is it ...... Go back to the palace by yourself? ”
"That'...... Shall I send you? ”
Lao Meng looked at her, and then at Qinglan.
Chen Jing brushed the wine stains on his sleeves, glanced at Qinglan, who was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look up, gave Lao Meng a "very sympathetic" look, and said, "Sister-in-law is really temperamental, how can I care about her?" But Lao Meng, Chen still has important things to do, and after being bothered for so long, it is time to leave. ”
If he could, Lao Meng Yizhun could fan him, an ignorant daughter-in-law, like Sun Erniang on Shuibo Liang Mountain. In the end, it was his own daughter-in-law, knowing that she had nothing else wrong except for her lack of brains, and she couldn't really fan her to death if she was angry. He snorted coldly, gave his daughter-in-law a look, hurriedly poured wine for Chen Jing, and apologized, "Don't blame the horse master, my daughter-in-law is stupid...... Don't be like him. ”
“……”
"I think my mother gave it to you for the first time, didn't you get knocked out like this?"
“……”
"If you don't knock him out, how can it be done?"
“……”
His old daughter-in-law frowned, "I don't want to help?" ”
"What are you doing?" Lao Meng was furious, shouting loudly and glaring at her.
“…… It's me who is bad. She sincerely recognized her mistake, then looked at Chen Jing apologetically, slammed the wine jar, raised her hand and smashed it towards Chen Jing. only heard a "bang", Chen Jing quickly dodged, and the wine jar in her hand was snatched by Lao Meng, fell to the ground, and shattered into porcelain pieces.
Lao Meng's daughter-in-law was stunned when she heard this, and when Xiao Er finally finished speaking, she suddenly realized. Only then did I realize that the disaster of my family's Xiaobai Chuang was not only spilled with a jar of wine, but also ruined a marriage.
"Ahem, cough, cough—" Lao Meng clenched his fist and coughed on his lips, trying to stop Xiao Er from talking, but Xiao Er didn't realize it, still had a bitter face, and continued to shout, "As a result, sister-in-law...... A good marriage, and the important task I was entrusted by the captain for the first time...... It's all ruined by you. ”
He originally wanted to ease each other's embarrassment, but Xiao Er is a solid eye, where does he know so much? His eyes widened, he pulled Xiao Liu, and said, "How can I talk nonsense?" Brother Jing, you ask Xiaoliu, this is really the captain's order, saying that Miss Qinglan admires you......"
"Nonsense! You have such a mouth, don't you apologize to Miss Qinglan? ”
I have to say that the second child is still young, he doesn't understand the world, and he is too honest. He said the words of Xia Chuqi to his face, and added the trick he realized to make Qinglan, who was still a big girl, red-faced, and so embarrassed that she wanted to get into the cracks. Chen Jing's face was also a little unbearable, but compared to Qinglan, he was a man in the end, in addition to crying and laughing, he could still hold his face.
There was an embarrassment in the room, and there were all kinds of strange noises.
“…… Cough! ”
“…… Call! ”
“……”
"No, no, no!" Xiao Er waved his hand violently and said, "The captain only said that I should look at it, looking for an opportunity for you to become more familiar with Miss Qinglan, and it is best that you two can open your hearts and talk freely...... Let me think for myself, how can I open my heart when my heart is closed? I went to Blacksmith Liu in the military workshop to discuss, and then asked him to get some medicine at home...... Hehe, if you can have a drunken sex or something, isn't everything open? What else are you talking about? ”
"Captain?" Chen Jing grasped the point of his words, his eyes were a little heavy, "She asked you to drug me?" ”
Xiao Er glanced at Lao Meng, bowed his head slightly, and said, "The captain instructed me to match the marriage between you and Miss Qinglan...... As a result, I didn't do my job well, and I spilled wine, but it wasn't in vain, I couldn't stand you......"
"Tell me, what did you want to do?"
Chen Jing watched coldly, and he already understood seven or eight points.
"Brother Jing, I can't stand you."
"Oh", Lao Meng's daughter-in-law didn't understand it at all, and looked at him blankly. And Xiao Er thought of the entrustment brought by the seventh trustee at the beginning of Xia, and thought of the wine that was overturned by the cat, and looked at Lao Meng without tears, and then looked at Chen Jing with a black face and did not move, and was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.
"Sit down!" Old Meng is mighty.
Lao Meng's daughter-in-law nodded, "Yes, I bought it in the grocery store of Lao Zhang's family at the entrance of the village, the same wine, eating differently?" Seeing that the people in the room were silent, she began to roll up her sleeves as soon as her eyebrows were raised, "Could it be fake wine, wow, this old Zhang, see if the old lady doesn't smash his stall." ”
Xiao Er groaned, "You bought it?" ”
Lao Meng's daughter-in-law laughed, "Sister-in-law, I bought it?" ”
He was completely dumbfounded, "And where did this wine come from?" ”
Lao Meng's daughter-in-law was stunned for a moment, shook her head embarrassedly, and said, "The jar of wine you prepared was knocked over by my Xiaobai." "Xiaobai is a big black cat raised by Lao Meng's family. Xiao Er didn't quite understand why it was a black cat who wanted to call Xiaobai, but he understood that Lao Meng and his daughter-in-law had lost his wine.
"Sister-in-law, is this the wine I prepared?"
After a moment of silence, Xiao Er bounced up from the bench as if his butt had been burned by fire, quickly took the wine jar on the side of the wooden table, shook it vigorously, and looked in from the mouth of the altar again, before turning his head, looking at Chen Jing, Lao Meng, Qinglan, and Lao Meng's daughter-in-law, and asked in frustration.
Chen Jing was even more confused, his red eyes were already deep, "No." ”
Xiao Liu next to him took it, "Brother Jing, are you cold?" ”
Chen Jing was confused, and was completely confused by him, "No." ”
Xiao Er pursed his lips and looked at Chen Jing, "Brother Jing, are you hot?!" ”
"That's not right!" Xiao Liu co-authored and also observed Chen Jing.
"Little Liu, that's not right!" Xiao Er nodded and looked at Xiao Liu.
Chen Jing didn't know the reason, pursed his lips tightly, didn't answer, only looked at him with a pair of suspicious eyes, although there was a drunken blush on his face, but his eyes were clear, but he frowned at Xiao Er.
Xiao Er blinked, and pointed at Xiao Liu, "What about him?" ”
Chen Jing frowned, "Little Er." ”
Xiao Er squinted slightly, raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, Fang said, "Do you still know who I am?" ”
Chen Jing's heart froze, and he sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, "How can you say this?" ”
As soon as his voice fell, Xiao Er and Xiao Liu, who were so tacitly acquiesced that they stared at Xiao Er and Xiao Liu, and glanced at each other. Xiao Er suddenly grinned, approached Chen Jing, looked into his eyes, and asked seriously, "Brother Jing, are you okay?" ”
"That's ...... If you don't drink, eat and eat. ”
Lao Meng's black face snorted slightly, and he snorted, his eyes were slightly strange.
"Lao Meng's wine...... Energetic, I can't drink anymore, it's a mistake. ”
"Yes, yes...... You're right, it's Lao Meng and I'm abrupt. Lao Meng nodded heavily, poured a full bowl for him, no longer mentioned those sensitive topics, only talked about the days of Miaoyin Town, between the words, several people laughed, and the wine was bowls after bowls. The bowls for eating wine are all thick bowls with a big bucket, slowly, Chen Jing was a little dazzled, and there was a "buzzing" sound in his ears, and when Lao Meng poured the wine again, he finally raised his hand to stop it.
"The emperor's order is in his body, and he really doesn't dare to say much."
Chen Jing smiled awkwardly again and touched the bowl with him.
Seeing that Xiao Er and Xiao Liu were about to be entangled again, Lao Meng knocked on the bowl with chopsticks, looked at Chen Jing, who was silent, and slowed down his voice, "Master Ma has concerns, my old Meng understands in my heart, come, don't talk about anything else." Eat and drink. ”
"You don't know what I know." Xiao Er went back again.
"How do you know you don't know?" Xiaoliu sang against him.
"I don't know." Xiao Er interjected and replied.
"Do you know what you're here for?" Lao Meng asked Chen Jing.
A mouthful of food, a sip of wine, a word, after talking for a while, mentioning the changes in the past two years, whether it is a major event in the court or a personal matter, I can't help but sigh. It is said that wine can strengthen people's courage, although Chen Jing's identity is different now, but between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the conversation box will soon be opened, from the change in Yinshan to the withdrawal of the imperial court, and inevitably talk about the purpose of Chen Jing coming from Beijing to Beiping.
Chen Jing felt awkward, but in the end, he was an old acquaintance, and he had enough memories of the past.
"Sister-in-law laughs, laughs!"
Lao Meng's daughter-in-law saw that he was stiff and smiled, "Master Ma, you are a nobleman, come to our house for dinner, that is the blessing that our old Meng has cultivated for eight lifetimes, if you are polite and formal, we don't dare to move chopsticks." ”
"My own brother, not an outsider, Brother Meng should not be polite." Chen Jing was embarrassed.
"Chief Chen guard......" Lao Meng shouted, scratched his head in embarrassment, and changed his name, "Master Ma, this village is small, and there is no livelihood on the side, so I didn't know that you were coming, and I didn't go to the city to prepare food." Look at this, hehe...... There's nothing to entertain, and my daughter-in-law's craftsmanship on the stove is not good, so you can eat as much as you want. ”
Reunited after a long absence, the dinner table was very harmonious, Lao Meng and his family were like no previous quarrels, Lao Meng became a brave and upright man again, accompanying Chen Jing to eat and drink, his daughter-in-law waited on the side, and he didn't even dare to go to the table, at first glance, it was completely like a little daughter-in-law.
The two of them carried out the "drama transformation" in unison, which made several people under the old locust tree stunned. The corners of Qinglan's mouth twitched without a trace, she glanced at Chen Jing and walked in with a smile, Xiao Er and Xiao Liu knew that there were tigers in his house, and they "swished" into the house, and they didn't say a word. Lao Meng and his wife also felt embarrassed, so they hurriedly followed and beckoned them to sit.
Lao Meng Bao smiled and turned his head to look at her, "I must pay attention next time." ”
Lao Meng and his daughter-in-law were also stunned for a moment, their raised right hand froze in the air, and then they softened, gently dusted Lao Meng's body, and said with a smile, "Look at this person, I don't know which one I drilled and made a gray ......."
"Here, sit down."
In a short distance, Xiao Er has changed Chen Jing's title from "Chief Chen Guard" and "Master of the Horse" to "Brother Jing", which sounds like a brother, very kind. can hear Xiao Er's shout, but Lao Meng can't be cordial. He looked up and glanced at it, his black face flushed with embarrassment.
"Lao Meng! Brother Jing is here! ”
Such a "deep love between husband and wife" stunned Chen Jing, but the rest of the people were not surprised.
Lao Meng and his daughter-in-law poured rice water in the gutter in front of the door, crossed their bucket-like waists, scolded a few words, and didn't think that they had grown a big and three thick person, with great strength, and waved a pair of heavy punches to beat Lao Meng indiscriminately. Lao Meng was not angry, holding his head, relying on a steel and iron body, smiling, beaten by his daughter-in-law, with a smile in his mouth.
Who is the tiger, what do you need to say? Naturally, it's Lao Meng.
Who is Wu Song? Lao Meng's wife.
Qinglan, Chen Jing, Xiao Er and Xiao Liu, who "happened" to meet on the road, the four of them chatted about the past all the way, and also sighed at the earth-shaking changes in Miaoyin Town here in the past year, no one expected that at the door of Lao Meng's house, they would watch a play of "Wu Song fighting tigers".
Lao Meng's home is in the west of the village, there is a big locust tree in front of the door, there is an old well under the tree, the old well is surrounded by moss, green and lush, just like the life of this Miaoyin Town. The sky is bluer, the trees are greener, the grass is more lush, and everyone seems to be living in happiness, which is enviable.
