Chapter 056: Name
Although the winter in Yong'an County is not as cold as the snowflakes flying in the northern Xinjiang, it is also wet and cold.
Halfway through the hour, Xiao Yu lazily crawled out of the warm quilt, put on a thick dark narrow-sleeved shirt with rabbit down, buckskin boots, and a bun, before going out of the room and walking towards the kitchen.
Xiao Yu is already twelve years old, much taller than two years ago, and at first glance he is also a young man with a tall posture and a face like a crown of jade.
Xiao Pei wore a brocade red jacket skirt embroidered with folded branches and white plums, and was putting the steaming and brightly colored leek egg cake into the food box, and saw Xiao Yu dressed neatly, Yingying smiled.
"Up?"
The elegant eyebrows and this dress are like carmine plums in the snow, which are both clear and gorgeous.
Xiao Yu nodded unconsciously, and whispered to himself: "No wonder Qin Gongzi walks to my house diligently. ”
Xiao Pei didn't hear what Xiao Yu was saying clearly, so she asked her to wash up quickly. In recent days, the weather has become colder and colder, Xiao Yu wants to bring warm clothes to Xiao Yucheng, and according to the custom, he will rest this morning.
Since Xiao Yucheng went to the city guards, Xiao Pei was always worried that he had any shortages, so he asked Xiao Yu to send things over in three days. After coming and going, Xiao Yu and the soldiers and civilians who lived near Hao Jun's house in General Lane were all familiar with each other, and they often brought some food made by Xiao Pei to distribute to everyone, gossiping all over the world.
Xiao Yu used the overheated porridge side dish and opened the food box prepared by Xiao Pei. It's full of leek omelets.
"That's a lot!"
Even when are the chickens that only lay eggs in the house, they can't be so extravagant, right? Where has all the frugality gone?
"Maybe it's not enough. There is no shortage of rice, flour and eggs at home. It's time to go out, if it's getting dark today, go early and come back early. ”
Xiao Pei urged disappreciatively.
Even if it's not a little bit of money, it's very heavy to carry. Xiao Yu said secretly. But she didn't say anything, she neatly put away the short sword for self-defense, smiled and took the several large bags of things that Xiao Pei packed, and sat on Huzi's ox cart.
Coincidentally, Xiao Yucheng was at Hao Jun's place, and a group of people in General Lane quickly snatched up the egg cake. Huzi and Xiao Yu also ate two. Xiao Yucheng put away the clothes he had brought and asked about the situation at home.
Xiao Yu picked up the more important ones and talked about what had happened recently. Xiao Yucheng said that General Ling went to winter hunting two days ago and was accidentally injured by a slang poisoned arrow.
"So what's going on now?" Xiao Yu asked.
Xiao Yucheng said: "General Ling is no longer in trouble. General Zhong has a friend who is good at medicine and is in the house. ”
"Ah Yu, since you're here, let's go and see the general." Hao Jun said beside him, "I heard the little boy mention this yesterday. ”
Xiao Yu didn't pay attention to it when she heard that Ling Yi was fine, and it didn't take long for Ling Weihan to come to her.
"Second Miss Xiao, would you like to go see your father?" Ling Weihan was dressed in brocade and mink, his face was like jade and black eyes, and he looked very energetic.
Maybe it was the cold snap that everyone changed their winter clothes, and Xiao Yu felt that many people had become radiant. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xiao Yucheng.
Xiao Yucheng just turned twelve years old last month, and his stature has grown, and he is standing there in a military uniform at this time, with handsome eyebrows and clear ink eyes, and he is indeed heroic.
Ling Weihan saw that Xiao Yu was only staring at Xiao Yucheng, so he said, "Could it be that Second Miss Xiao doesn't even recognize her younger brother?" ”
Xiao Yu came back to his senses and coughed lightly twice with Xiao Yucheng to hide his embarrassment.
"It's rare to enter the city, of course I have to meet the general."
Ling Weihan led Xiao Yu straight into the mansion and walked towards the main courtyard, followed by a maid named Xiaoman.
Xiao Yu was walking, and inadvertently saw a slender figure of the verdant bamboo a little far away on the right, passing by the path. She was wearing a lilac dress, a long cloak of silver and white brocade with fur edges, a jet-black bun adorned with luster pearls, and beautiful eyebrows and cherry lips, beautiful and graceful, but she was fourteen or fifteen years old, just like a delicate flower.
"What a beauty!" Xiao Yu's footsteps paused slightly, and blurted out praise. If Xiao Pei is beautiful, this girl is even better, especially the clothes are very exquisite, the so-called people rely on clothes, and her eyebrows are even more exquisite.
Ling Weihan followed his gaze and said a little proudly: "That's my aunt, who only arrived a few days ago." ”
The girl entered the courtyard of the house, and the two continued to move forward, and soon arrived at the courtyard where Ling Yi lived. There were only two maids in the room, Gu Yu and Bai Lu. Xiao Yu stepped forward to check the pulse, and found that as Xiao Yucheng said, although the poison in Ling Yi's body was strong, it had almost been resolved. A few polite words at the moment, do not disturb his recuperation, and leave the house.
Ling Weihan wanted to practice martial arts, so he asked Gu Yu to send Xiao Yu out of the house.
Gu Yu and Xiao Yu are also familiar with each other. She is sixteen years old, and her temperament is a little out of her breath as calm as Bai Lu, and she smiled at the moment: "I didn't expect that Second Miss Xiao can also heal, it's really amazing." ”
Xiao Yuqian said: "I only know a little bit about the skin, and I am smiling and generous compared to the master in the house." Slang people have always been good at poison, General Ling is poisoned and unharmed, and the person who detoxifies is really superb in medicine. I don't know where his honorific name is? ”
Gu Yu said shyly: "The slave maid also heard the general accidentally mention that the third son's surname is Hua Danmingyue, and he lives in the Tingfeng Pavilion in the mansion with General Zhong. ”
Huayue, such a romantic name, the third son must be beautiful and beautiful, right? Let's look at Gu Yu's shyness with a budding spring heart. Xiao Yu thought secretly, but changed the words on his lips: "Spring flowers and autumn moon, this name is so poetic, its face must be dazzling and handsome?" ”
Gu Yu's face was flying, and he nodded again and again with an intoxicated face: "Yes, it's not wrong at all." It's a pity......"
Xiao Yu didn't listen to the second half, and asked again: "Why do you call him the third son?" ”
It's okay to call him a playboy, I wonder if the girl in his family is called a flower girl? The corners of Xiao Yu's mouth couldn't help but curl.
Gu Yu shook his head and said he didn't know.
When the corner gate arrived, the two did not continue the topic, Gu Yu sent Xiao Yu out of the door, turned around and turned back. Xiao Yu returned to Hao Jun's residence and said hello to Xiao Yucheng, and then returned to the village with Huzi.
When they got home, it was still early, Xiao Pei and Aunt Qi walked over from the vegetable patch next to the house, and the little maid Banxia in the back carried a basket of various vegetables and vegetables, and the snow ball ran between several people.
The name Banxia was given by Xiao Yu.
This little girl was more than thirteen years old, and she had fled from the southwest to Yong'an County with her mother, Deng Niangzi. His mother and daughter were treated harshly when they worked in the rice shop in the county, and Xiao Pei happened to meet them when the shopkeeper beat people, and when he saw his cool governor, he heard that he was also very diligent in the rice shop, so he hired them to his home and signed a five-year deed.
When I came back and asked, it happened that Mrs. Deng's family had raised chickens for a living and was quite experienced, so Xiao Pei planned to raise chickens next year for Mrs. Deng to take care of them, and Banxia would do some chores with the two sisters.
For dinner, Xiao Pei cooked, and there was charcoal-roasted deer breast that Xiao Yu loved to eat. Most of these wild games were caught by Xiao Yucheng and Xiao Yu on a free day in autumn. The winter night was long and cold, after eating, Xiao Yu looked at the poison spectrum for a while, Xiao Pei did a needlework, and the two sisters rested early.
In recent days, the weather has not warmed up at all, and it has been freezing rain, and the cold seems to be about to invade the bone marrow. Xiao Yu was thinking about whether to get a ground dragon or something, but it was sunny.
