Chapter 155: Departure
Perhaps the heavens heard Xiao Yu's prayer, and when the visitor approached, a heavenly voice came into his ears: "Sister Ayu, why are you here?" ”
Even if it's windy outside, you don't need to go into the trees, right?
Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Ling Yan who came over, and whispered embarrassedly: "Sister Yan, my skirt is dirty." ”
Ling Yan was still a little unsure.
Xiao Yu looked around and didn't see anyone else before he walked out from behind the flower tree.
Outside, Ling Yan stepped forward, glanced at Xiao Yu's clothes a few times, looked up and saw that her face was a little wrong, and immediately took her hand, only to feel cold, and immediately asked: "Why do you wear so little, and you don't bring a hand stove, what are those maids doing?" ”
Ling Yan motioned for Xiao Xue to hand her hand stove to Xiao Yu, saying that she was already angry in the back.
In this way, the master's frozen subordinates will be sent out clean as soon as possible!
Xiao Yu said with some embarrassment: "When I went out, I felt very warm today, so I didn't wear a cloak, Yuzhu went to Ning Fangju to take the hand stove that I left there......"
As soon as he said this, Xiao Yu felt another cramping pain in his abdomen, and cold sweat came out.
Seeing Xiao Yu's suddenly pale face, Ling Yan sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly supported her and asked anxiously, "Ah Yu, what's wrong with you?" What's uncomfortable? ”
After enduring the severe pain, Xiao Yu said weakly: "I'm here to dehydrate." ”
Ling Yan finally understood why Xiao Yu said that her skirt was dirty.
After returning to Qinghui Xiaozhu and lying on the warm couch after eating brown sugar ginger soup, Xiao Yu felt that his hands and feet were warm, and his stomach was not so painful.
Yuzhu took the hand stove back when Ling Yan took off her cloak and put it on Xiao Yu in the garden.
Someone has already reported to Mrs. Xiao and the Lin family.
After a while, the old lady and the second lady came in with a smile on their faces, first appeased Xiao Yu, and then asked Yuzhu and Banxia if the things they needed for the summer day were ready, and also instructed the Lin family to let the kitchen pay attention to Qinghui Xiaozhu's meal.
Old Madam Xiao smiled: "My family Ayu has also grown into a big girl." ”
Rao is Xiao Yu is thick-skinned, and he is a little embarrassed when he listens to it. However, what made her want to cry without tears was still to come.
The weather was cold and her body was not comfortable, Xiao Yu had honestly not gone out in the house for the past two days, but the news brought by Ling Yan suddenly made her unable to sit still, and she just wanted to find a hole in the ground immediately.
How so!
Because Xiao Yu's small day came, it was not easy to travel far, and the date of returning to Yue was postponed.
This was nothing, but the original return date had already been set, and now that it has been postponed, it is inevitable that some people will ask the reason, and everyone thinks that it is a good thing for their daughter to come to the water for the first time, so when the wife of the world friend asked, Mrs. Xiao said the reason truthfully with a smile on her face.
As you can imagine, soon the ladies of the various provinces learned about it.
Since it has spread outside, almost everyone in the Xiao Mansion knows about it, and Hua Yue and Ling Yi will definitely hear about it.
Xiao Yu complained incomparably: Why is she living a small life at this time! She originally thought that she had been favored by heaven and did not make a fool of herself in the garden, but she never thought that she had only guessed the beginning, but she did not expect the ending.
Now everyone knows that because the girl from Xiaofu came to Xiaotian, she postponed the return date of going south to Vietnam.
Thinking that even Hua Yue and the others probably knew about it, Xiao Yu felt that she would not be able to go out to meet people in the future, but she would have to go back to Yue Di together in a few days......
Xiao Yu pulled the Yunjin quilt and covered his head.
Ling Yan, who was sitting next to her, was not surprised to see Xiao Yu like this, if it was her, she would definitely be too ashamed to find a crack to drill, she smiled and said, "Ah Yu, you haven't seen the newly planted corn yet, right?" My brother asked me to bring some to show you. ”
Hearing Ling Yan talk about business, Xiao Yu immediately got up, and said with bright eyes: "I'll take a look!" ”
I don't know if Wang Siqing and the others had carefully selected these newly harvested corns before sending them over, Xiao Yu saw that the ones that Ling Yan put on the mahogany lacquer case were all large and full, with bright luster and bright colors, and the heavy ones in her hand were better than the seeds she brought back.
Maybe there was no one to take care of it in that valley, so the corn that was carefully grown was in better condition?
I only heard Ling Yan say again: "Brother asked me to ask you, now that you have harvested one season, do you want to use these newly grown corn as seeds to continue planting?" ”
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Of course, I also want to try to see if these corns can be planted, if so, we will almost be able to harvest them again when we go back." When the time comes, I will go to the field with Sister Yan to harvest corn. ”
Ling Yan was also interested when she heard this: "Really? Then I'll tell my brother when I go back and ask him to pass the book over there quickly, otherwise what if the farming time is delayed. ”
"Actually, there is no need to be so anxious, if the weather is too cold, I am afraid that the corn seed will not survive. If you plant later in the season, you may be able to eat tender corn just in time for you. ”
"So you can eat corn when it's tender? Is it used for cooking like beans? ”
"According to ancient records, corn is not only used for cooking and soup, but also delicious when cooked as a staple food. You can also grill or fry corn, juice it and make corn soup. ”
Seeing Ling Yan asking, Xiao Yu smiled and said in detail how to eat several corns.
Ling Yan suddenly yearned.
After such a distraction, Xiao Yu forgot about the embarrassing thing that everyone knew about coming to the Deshui Manfu, and sat on the warm couch with Ling Yan to study the various methods of corn, and wrote them down on paper.
Five or six days passed in a blink of an eye, and as soon as Xiao Yu's small days were over, Ling Yi and the others proposed to leave for the south.
Everything was ready to stop, and there was nothing to pack, so the next morning, several people took the car to the ferry under the escort of everyone.
Before leaving, as soon as the twelfth brother Xiao Wenqiao saw Xiao Yu, he immediately asked with concern, "Is my sister good?" ”
Because Xiao Wenqiao did not lower his voice, everyone heard it.
The corners of Hua Yue's lips curved slightly, and Ling Yan pursed her lips and lowered her head, her cheeks were already dyed a faint crimson, Xiao Wenhuan couldn't help but cough lightly.
Xiao Yu was embarrassed, but seeing that Xiao Wenqiao was unconscious, as if she didn't know what was happening, she tried her best to smile calmly and responded: "It's okay, let the twelfth brother worry." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly got into the carriage.
Xiao Wenqiao was a little strange, but soon Xiao Wenhuan called him over.
The winter morning was cold and windy, Xiao Yu thought that there would be few pedestrians on the road, but she didn't expect that it was a cluster of cars and horses that was extremely lively.
It didn't take long for the group to leave the city and come to the docks.
It was still early, and the cold river water was soaked in the faint morning light, flowing quietly. Willow trees were planted on the embankment, their bare branches swaying in the wind, some of them hanging low and touching the boats moored below, and a few faint lights flickering on the water.
There were already a lot of early risers waiting on the shore to see them off.
Xiao Yu helped Banxia's men get out of the carriage and bid farewell to the daughters of the various prefectures who came to see each other off with Ling Yan.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yu looked at the people of the Xiao Mansion who were still looking at the shore as they drifted away, and couldn't help but feel sorry for them. (To be continued.) )
