Chapter 64: The General's Gift

After years of marching and fighting, what manners, what aristocratic demeanor, that's.

In the face of the enemy's swords and arrows, in the face of life and death, even if it is just a bun as hard as a stone, it can save a person's life at a critical moment.

Tang Mo was blocked by him and had nothing to say, touched his nose in a sneer, and also reached out to take the bun, or looked at his hand, and then looked at the bun, or turned a corner, took the chopsticks first, and then went to clip the bun. At the moment of his indecision, Helian Sheng had already finished eating one bun and went to get the second one. He is a man, and he stays in the barracks all year round, and it is okay to eat once in a while, but more often, he has become accustomed to drinking wine in a big bowl and eating meat.

So, when Tang Mo was still slowly biting the buns, over there, Helian Sheng didn't know how many to eat, and by the way, he asked Xiao Liu, who was standing aside dumbfounded, "That's all?" The implication is ...... And what about the rest? Don't hand it over yet!

Xiao Liu wiped the sweat on his head and explained honestly, "Miss Mu gave a total of twenty buns to the little one, and on the way back, the little one ...... The little one ate two ......" As soon as these words came out, he instantly felt that he was stabbed by countless ice blades, from head to toe, and from foot to head, and secretly raised his eyes to see that it was the two masters who were stabbing him with eye knives! He wondered, what did he say wrong? Why did the young master and Helian Gongzi have an expression that they were going to cut him with a thousand knives?

In a moment of silence, it was Helian Sheng who spoke first, "Send the rest of the buns to my room." ”

Tang Mo stopped drying, "Hey, how can you do this?" The thing was sent by my people, and the silver was also mine, and people had a return gift, of course, it was mine, and I gave you so much to eat just now, I can't get it, you don't have to make an inch, although I can't beat you, but you have to be reasonable, right? "It's not that he's stingy and reluctant to have a few buns, the key is the buns made of woody fragrance, which tastes different. The dough was kneaded very strongly, not sticky to the teeth at all, although the bun filling was heated twice, but the vegetables were vegetables, the meat was meat, and it was the same as the fresh one, and it was not covered with yellow at all. He eats too much food in a big restaurant, and ordinary people's food like this can arouse his sense of taste even more.

Helian Sheng ignored his shouting at all, and with a gesture of his hand, a person flew in from the open window.

"General!" The man was dressed in black, kneeling on the ground, his breath was almost non-existent, such a person, if he didn't speak, standing in the corner, would not attract attention at all. There are only two possibilities for the existence of a person without breath.

One: They are dead people;

Two: the best master.

Obviously, how could the person who could follow Helian Sheng be a dead person! However, there are countless masters like him, beside Helian Sheng.

Tang Mo saw Helian Sheng calling someone, of course he didn't really think that he was going to fight. But his face still changed, and he leaned back in the chair, "General Helian, what is this for, to kill people and kill people?" ”

Helian Sheng smiled, ignored Tang Mo, and only said to the man: "Give you a pillar of incense, get a copy of the things he sent in the morning, and throw them in the backyard of Fushou Building." ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey!" The man responded, and his figure flickered, like a puff of smoke, and disappeared into the room.

Tang Mo finally knew what he was going to do, his handsome face turned red with anger, he jumped up, rushed to Heliansheng, and called him by name, "Heliansheng, you are so insidious, the group of old stubborns in the court are blind, and they actually said that you only know tactics and don't understand political affairs, oops, I have seen it today, you ...... You......! "Copying the things back, it is equivalent to that the things sent to Mu Xiang's house today were sent by him Heliansheng, not by him Tang Mo, so that he can grab things with confidence. And...... Moreover, he asked Xiao Liu to buy the things that he hadn't even seen himself, but Helian Sheng opened his mouth and asked his subordinates to buy them, which shows that his people knew everything about Fushoulou for a long time.

Helian Sheng glanced at him lazily, leaned back, leaned back in the chair, and said slowly: "Don't get excited, General Ben only said that he didn't agitate to play with power, but he never said that he didn't know how to play, so be it, what she has there, it has nothing to do with you now, I'm tired, don't send it!" ”

Xiao Liu shrank at the door, looking at the two uncles, you and I, arguing.

Belch! In fact, only the young master of his family has been red-faced and red-eared, and General Helian has not even moved his breath. Sure enough, it is a mountain that is better than a mountain, and when he meets Helian Sheng, he is afraid that the emperor will not dare to speak loudly.

In the end, Tang Mo had to leave angrily, because Helian Sheng ignored him at all and closed his eyes to recuperate. Two people quarrel when they quarrel, and it's interesting to quarrel alone.

The door closed, and Helian Sheng was still lying there. The shadow between his eyebrows has not receded, and his current appearance is like a lurking lion, which seems harmless when he sleeps, but once he wakes up, just one look is enough to frighten the enemy to retreat.

Not only does he have a fierce means to make the enemy fearful, but he also has a handsome appearance that overwhelms all beings, and he is not like other children of the imperial city, surrounded by Yingying Yanyan, and in addition to the domestic servants, he is a soldier.

The night breeze cracked the wooden windows with a few slight creaks.

"Someone!" He curled his lips slightly.

A dark shadow flew in from the window and knelt on the ground, "General! ”

Helian Sheng whispered a few words, and the man listened to his command, although he was a little surprised, he didn't dare to question it, and disappeared from the house after receiving the order.

**

It was night, and it was pitch black.

The courtyard door of the Mu family was closed, and a figure quietly touched into the courtyard, put a bag in the courtyard, and then quietly exited as when it came.

Building a house is a very worrying thing, Mu Xiang and Caiyun were busy cooking all day, and when they were busy with the work at hand, they took a bath, and fell asleep with their heads on the pillow. I slept so soundly that I didn't even dream.

Early the next morning, Mu Xiang stretched her waist, put on her clothes, and walked to the courtyard. Looking at the white belly of the fish on the horizon, you know that today is another good weather.

"Hey, what is this?" The eyes swept over a corner of the yard, and there was an extra sack next to the cage of the golden-feathered pheasant. There are not many things at home, Mu Xiang naturally remembers clearly, this bag is not theirs at all!

Caiyun rubbed her eyes, heard her speak, pushed open the window and looked outside, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

"Oh, it's okay, you sleep for a while, I'll sweep the yard first," such a big bag, she was really worried, after opening it, there would be a headless female corpse or something from the bloody drama. So before she figured it out, she didn't want Caiyun to see it.

"Then I'll get up and cook breakfast later," Caiyun didn't ask much, she was really tired yesterday, she could stay in bed for a while, she didn't know!

Mu Xiang bit her lip, turned around and went to the kitchen to get the scissors, ran back, and cut the sack through the middle without hesitation.

Stab!

After slicing it open, there was no headless corpse or anything as she guessed, but it was scary enough, it was actually freshly slaughtered beef. Putting down the scissors, she simply poured out all the contents of the bag, all of which were high-quality beef back seat meat, not even fat.

What's going on? Is it really pie in the sky? Well, how can there be beef in her yard?

She doesn't want to accept things from unknown sources, in case she causes unnecessary numbness, even if she can't tell a thousand mouths. Besides, who knows if these beef are mixed with any poison, in case it hurts the stomach, then it is called a gain that outweighs the loss!

Mu Xiang pondered, just take advantage of the fact that it is still early, drag the beef out, dig a hole and bury it, otherwise the level will be Wang Xi and they will come over, and they must be misunderstood again.

She went back to the kitchen to find a bamboo basket, loaded a part of it first, moved it to the door, opened the door lightly, and looked around to see that there was no one, so she dared to run out with the bamboo basket. She didn't think much of it, but after finding a place, she put the basket down, and ran back to get the shovel. While digging a hole, he looked around vigilantly.

Hidden in the bamboo forest and a black shadow, watching her actions inexplicably.

What is this for? I don't want good things, she doesn't have a problem with her brain.

Thinking of his master's command, the man had to appear out of the bamboo forest, flash in front of her, and in order not to frighten her, he whispered: "Girl! ”

Mu Xiang rarely touched the dark to do something with a weak heart, and her heart was already in her throat, and she suddenly heard someone talking to her, and in a panic, the shovel in her hand quickly slashed behind her. This is instinctively protective, not really trying to kill.

The man guessed that his sudden appearance might scare her, but he didn't expect her first reaction to be to attack him.

After all, the shovel is not a weapon, and it is quite bulky, and Mu Xiang is not a master, so he waved it, but unfortunately the angle was crooked. That person is naturally also guarded, if he is hit by her shovel, he doesn't have to go back to recover his life, just find a rope and hang him.

Seeing Mu Xiang turn around and want to run, Wu Qing hurriedly said: "Girl, I have no malicious intent, this beef was ordered by my master, there is no problem!" "The master has instructed that the beef must be delivered to her house, and she must watch her receive it. So when he sent back the beef, he didn't leave, he just hid it in the bamboo forest. It wasn't until he saw Mu Xiang who looked like a thief and wanted to bury the beef, that he showed up. Such a good beef, if she really buried it, it would be a waste!

Mu Xiang had already run two steps, and when he heard this, he hurriedly ran back, "That, is your master Tang Mo?" Has he been addicted to sending things recently, the pork that was only delivered yesterday, why did he think about sending beef again today, is he idle? ”

The corners of Wu Qing's mouth twitched, what kind of theory is this, people sent things to her, and she actually had a reputation for having nothing to do. However, on this point, he had to make it clear, "Yesterday's things were not sent by Young Master Tang, but by my master, including these beef, which were all sent by my master, and have nothing to do with Young Master Tang." ”

Mu Xiang stayed there, "Huh? It wasn't sent by Tang Mo, but when Xiaoliu came over, he clearly said that he sent it, so who is your master? In fact, when she asked this sentence, she faintly had the answer in her heart, and she was a little excited, but thinking about it, she felt that it was unlikely, such a big man would give her meat?

Wu Qing's face did not change, and said: "The master is the master, I can't say the name, but he has been in Fushou Mansion recently, you have also seen it, I can only say so much, girl, don't pour these beef, otherwise it will be a pity." Wu Qing's eyes glanced at the beef that had been poured into the mud by her. It's a pity, isn't it weird? They marched and fought, running day and night, and although there were occasional beef and vegetables in the army, a team of tens of thousands of people was not enough to slaughter ten cows. It would be nice to have a piece in their bowl.

Mu Xiang is a person who understands super quickly, and when he said it, he had already understood it in the first half. After he finished speaking, he patted him on the shoulder generously, "It's a pity, since your master sent it, I have no reason not to accept it, anyway, I didn't let him send it, we don't eat it for nothing, and if we eat it for nothing, I will burn a pot of braised beef at noon today, leave a copy for you, remember to come and eat!" ”

Wu Qing stood there stunned, with a small wave in his heart, his face was a little red, fortunately it was still dark, and Mu Xiang didn't see it, "I'...... Uh, come when you're free! As soon as he finished speaking, he was gone.

Mu Xiangle stood in place, since the beef was sent by that person, of course she would not bury it.

After transporting the beef back to the yard, she went to the river to fetch two buckets of water and boiled a pot of porridge. A few hens were also released from the cage and hung around in a fence made of bamboo outside. The hens were fed in the morning, and in addition to the crushed corn residues, she also pulled some old greens from the vegetable garden and threw them into the chicken coop.

By the time Caiyun and Mu Lang got up, the porridge was ready. Mu Xiang steamed a few steamed buns in the porridge pot, and there were porridge and buns for breakfast, which was also very hearty.

While eating, Wang Xi came in with tools. Mu Xiang saw that he came so early, so he must have not eaten breakfast again. Wang Xi works for her family, and she has always been like this, always coming first and leaving the latest.

Mu Xiang stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Brother Wang Xi, I'll serve you a bowl of porridge." ”

Wang Xi hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, I ate at home, and my mother got up early." ”

Mu Xiang didn't give him a chance to refute, he was already holding a big bowl, and two big buns in his other hand, walked up to him, and stuffed the buns to him, "What's polite with me, if you don't want to eat, you treat us as outsiders." ”

Caiyun squatted under the eaves of the porch, and said with a smile: "That's it, Brother Wang Xi, you just have to eat, my family still has good dishes to eat today, at noon my sister said to eat roast beef, you must not have tasted it." ”

Wang Xi was stunned, "Beef? He swept around the yard. I didn't pay attention when I first came in, but then I saw that there was a big basin in the corner of the yard, which was filled with beef.

"Where did this come from?" Wang Xi's voice was obviously higher, how could they eat something like beef. But Mu Xiang's house actually has dozens of catties of beef, can he not be shocked?

Seeing that he asked, Mu Xiang knew that if he didn't give him a reasonable explanation, it would definitely not work, so he said: "This is sent by Fushoulou, they have a batch of beef in the store, but the condition is not good, I don't want it, I will use the price of pork to buy the beef back, this is good, wait for you to call it a day, I will cut some beef for you to bring back, let Grandma and them taste it, but not now, Brother Wang Xi, you help me move the beef into the back room, so that others can see it, I'm afraid it's not good." "There are a lot of people who come to work, and it is impossible for her to give everyone some beef to them, at most, it is for Wang Xi's family, Damei's family, and Jin Ju's family, and cut some beef for the three of them.

Wang Xi shook his head a little crampedly, "No need, you can keep it, you have to cook a big pot of rice in the past few days, and you keep it for cooking." Since he knew that it was sent by Fushoulou, he didn't want to ask too much. Mu Xiang is an assertive girl, and now it seems that her relationship with the young owner of Fushou Lou is not ordinary.

Mu Xiang smiled, and had already started to move the wooden basin, "I still have a lot of pork at home, so it's decided, when the afternoon is over, you guys are late, so I'll give you something." ”

"I'll move," Wang Xi saw that she was struggling to move, so he leaned his tools against the courtyard wall, then took the wooden basin in her hand, and carried the beef into the back room.

After breakfast, after a while, Lin Fugui and they all came, ramming the foundation again today, and tomorrow they will almost be able to stack bricks.

There is also a basket of potatoes in the dishes sent by Xiaoliu yesterday. Mu Xiang planned to use potatoes to stew beef at noon, which must be very fragrant.

This is a home-cooked dish, which does not require much advanced cooking skills, that is, the beef fed by the farmer will be older, but this is also the advantage of the earthen pot, put some small firewood under the stove hole, and simmer slowly over low heat until the beef is stewed until it is crispy.

The potatoes are ripe quickly, so you have to put them later, and when they come out of the pot, you can cut some green onions and red peppers, and the fragrance can make people's tongues swallow.

Because the materials are sufficient, Muxiang used a small pot to stew a whole pot. As for the staple, she cooked a pot of rice. Yesterday she brought so much rice, there was no reason why she didn't cook some for the workers to eat.

Smelling the aroma of beef, Heibao didn't go anywhere, just guarded at the mouth of the pot hole, looked up at the pot for a while, looked at the wood fragrance for a while, that little look greedy, not to mention how funny.

As soon as Mu Xiang and Jin Ju entered the yard, they smelled the incense, and when they saw their work, they didn't even say hello, so they ran into the kitchen.

Da Mei took the first step, leaned in front of the small pot, sniffed hard, and almost fell into the pot with saliva. Fortunately, he was pushed out in time by Mu Xiang, otherwise it would have been a drop of saliva and a good pot of dishes.

Jin Ju also came over and exclaimed, "Mu Xiang, are you cooking beef?" ”

Mu Xiang nodded, "It's good beef, it was sent by Fushoulou in the morning, don't worry, it's no problem." ”

Da Mei sighed, and patted Mu Xiang's shoulder, "Okay, you, don't you invite you truthfully, what kind of trick do you have with the young owner of Fushou Building, if it is a general relationship, can he give you such things?" Deceitful! "Da Mei is not stupid, can a person like Tang Mo think about sending things to a small mountain village and an inconspicuous little village girl? If you want to say it's okay, the ghost will believe it.

Jin Ju also said: "Da Mei is right, Mu Xiang, people like Young Master Tang, you have to be careful, don't be sold when the time comes." ”

Mu Xiang understood their concern, but she didn't plan to sue the two of them for the truth, she only said: "Don't worry, he doesn't have any thoughts about me, I'm not good-looking, I have a bad temper, I only know how to work all day long, even if he just wants to abduct and sell people, he won't find me, he sent it, and I didn't ask for it, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of, okay, take a step at a time, anyway, you two have a good mouth at noon today, and the beef and potatoes I made can't be eaten in Fushoulou." ”

Da Mei also made a little sense when she heard what she said, maybe they were thinking too much, "Hope, I hope I'm thinking too much, you, don't be too good." "Some things may be good in the eyes of others, but for them country girls, they may not be good things.

Jin Ju said: "Oh, you just think too much, in our opinion, the big thing, in the eyes of Young Master Tang, is just a big sesame grain, these things, together are not worth a piece of clothing, if he really has any intentions for Mu Xiang, just give the dowry gift directly, who will give meat?" ”

Da Mei couldn't help but smile when she heard what she said, and turned to Mu Xiang and said: "The next time you see Young Master Tang, remember to remind him that you should send silk and satin, how can you only send some pork and beef all day long, people who don't know think you can eat more!" ”

Mu Xiang saw that the two of them were talking farther and farther, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to stop, "Okay, you two, hurry up and prepare, it's time to eat, wait for the next meal, cut some beef and bring it back to you." ”

Jin Ju still wanted to be polite, Da Mei couldn't wait to nod her head, and said to Jin Ju: "Don't be polite to her, I sent pork yesterday, and beef will be sent today. ”

Mu Xiang didn't bother to pay attention to their ridicule, and asked Caiyun to get the dishes and chopsticks and put them on the big table outside.

The big table in the courtyard was borrowed from Wang Xi's family, and her family only had a small table in the kitchen, which was not enough at all. The dishes and chopsticks were also added to the eye of the needle later, and this purchase bought a lot, and finally bought a lot of dowry.

At this moment, in the private room of Fushou Building, Wu Qing knelt on the ground and reported to Helian Sheng about the Mu family, from sending beef over, until Mu Xiang wanted to bury the beef, and then to Mu Xiang's sentence, 'If you don't eat for nothing, you won't eat for nothing, and if you eat for nothing, you will eat for nothing,' Finally, he didn't forget to say that Mu Xiang invited him to eat beef. As Helian Sheng's most loyal subordinate, he naturally had to report to his master word for word.

After listening to Wu Qing's words, Helian Sheng's face was cloudy, as if a little light flashed, and it was fleeting, and it was almost invisible.

He also thought that after the girl knew that the person who delivered the meat was him, she would order something to come out, but where did he think that the person gave him a sentence, 'Don't eat for nothing, don't eat'. What is this, dare to love him for doing this qiē is boring?

She invited Wu Qing to dinner, but she didn't even invite him, the one who paid for it.

Wu Qing knelt there, only to feel that the pressure around him had increased sharply, and it was difficult to breathe for a while. He quietly looked up at his master, and sure enough, he was angry now, his black hair was windless, and the hem of his clothes was also shocked by internal forces.

"General...... had no choice but to call him out through gritted teeth. The internal strength of his general's internal strength is too strong, if he delays for a while, his life will have to be scrapped here. He is not afraid, General Helian's subordinates have no one who is afraid of death, but they can't die here!

Helian Sheng took a breath, put away his scattered breath, and said calmly: "Go!" ”

Wu Qing was stunned, "General, where are you letting me go?" ”

Helian Sheng's beautiful black eyes narrowed slightly, full of majesty, "Didn't someone invite you to dinner?" Then don't go soon! ”

Wu Qing's brain short-circuited for a while, is this what their family general said? It sounded too weird, but since the master had given the order, he could only nod his head and respond.

Just as Wu Qing was about to leave, Helian Sheng suddenly said, "General Ben's appetite is not very good today, he has eaten too much in Fushoulou, and he is too tired, you can buy some from outside and come back!" ”

"Yes, the villain knows," the corners of Wu Qing's mouth twitched. This excuse is inevitably too bad, if you want to eat other people's roasted beef, just say it, turn such a big corner.

Wu Qing shook his head, and the figure passed by the window. It only took half an hour for him to arrive outside the gate of the Mu family's courtyard.

At this time, the people working in the courtyard also rested, some holding bowls in their hands, and some had finished eating, sitting together to talk about family life.

Seeing that there were so many people in the courtyard, Wu Qing was originally reluctant to show up, his identity was different from Xiaoliu and them, but when he left, his master released such words, can he still leave?

After thinking about it, he had to hide behind the house, thinking that if people were not paying attention, he would go to find Muxiang again.

At noon, everyone ate very fragrantly, and after eating and sitting for a while, they began to work. Even the beef was eaten, and if they didn't work hard, they themselves felt embarrassed.

Da Mei and Caiyun brushed the bowl together, there were many people eating, and there were many dishes and chopsticks, and Caiyun couldn't brush it alone. Jin Ju helped clean up the yard and went home. Liu He is working here, Liu Erdan has eaten at home, under the pretext of coming to see his brother, and by the way, he also helps them work, he is a free laborer, Mu Xiang didn't want to go, so he brought him a small bowl of beef to eat. Mu Lang likes to play with him, and when Liu Erdan finishes eating, he follows him, helping Liu Erdan with things for a while, and watching the adults work for a while.

Seeing that there was nothing to do outside, Mu Xiang took the salt jar and entered the back room. The beef has to be salted and then air-dried, otherwise it will turn off.

"Muxiang, the bowl is all brushed for you, I'll go back first, my pigs haven't been fed yet," Da Mei called her through the curtain.

"Hey, I know, you go back, come over for dinner in the evening," Mu Xiang also replied to her through the curtain.

Da Mei walks quietly, even if Mu Xiang stays in the back room, she can still hear her walking.

After a while, Caiyun opened the door curtain and came in, "Sister, I'm going to feed the chickens, I'll go out to collect firewood later." ”

Mu Xiang was sitting on the small bench, rubbing the beef in his hand, and said with a smile: "The chicken will be fed again, you come over to rest, you have been tired in the past few days, and your little face has lost weight again, and when we build the house, my sister will definitely make up for you." ”

Caiyun smiled, also brought a stool from the outside, sat beside her, smelled the warm and fresh fragrance on her body, and only felt that her heart was full of happiness, "I'm not tired, I've never been so happy as now, sister, when our house is built, let's go to my mother's grave to have a look, I miss my mother." ”

Mu Xiang saw the look in her eyes, her heart was sour, she wanted to hug her, but because her hands were full of salt, she had to wrap her arms around her neck instead, let Caiyun lean on her shoulder, rubbed her sister's forehead, and said softly: "Okay, when our new house is built, my sister will prepare more things, give my mother a good grave, tell her, the three of us are doing well, let her not worry, and beg my mother to bless our Mu Lang in heaven, so that he can be happy and grow up peacefully." ”

A child without a mother is undoubtedly the most pitiful. Mu Lang is her younger brother and her child, without her father and mother by her side, she, who is the eldest sister, is also equivalent to their elders.

Caiyun sniffed and raised his head from Hao's arms, "I'll go to the courtyard first, the water that was boiled just now hasn't been poured for them yet, I'll take Mu Lang to chop firewood later, and our family's firewood needs to be saved." ”

Mu Xiang nodded, "Go, don't go far, when the family is done, I will ask Wang Xi to borrow a saw and find a few trees in the bamboo forest, which is much more convenient than picking up firewood every day." "There are only three of them, and they don't have much strength, so they can find a smaller tree saw, drag it home, split it with an axe, and let it dry under the eaves of the verandah for a few days, and then they can make a fire, which is indeed more convenient than collecting firewood.

Caiyun looked happy, "This method is good, there are a few trees behind the pond, do you want to see them down and make a fire?" ”

Mu Xiang shook his head, "The trees on the edge of the pond can't be sawed, not only can't they be sawed, we also have to plant trees, next spring, let's go to the town to buy some saplings back, for example, poplar trees, or willow saplings, we can also plant a few fruit trees in front of and behind our house, how about planting peach trees?" When the peaches are ripe, we will have peaches to eat. ”

Caiyun jumped up and clapped his hands, and said happily: "Okay, good, the peach tree planted in the yard of the second son's house last year knotted, Mu Lang wanted to eat it, he didn't give it or say it, and he also took the peach pit dish Mu Lang, I was angry and I had a fight with him, and when the peaches planted by our family were finished, I also told him to be greedy." ”

Mu Xiang looked at her angry little face, and said with a smile: "Let's plant fruit trees, it will take at least three years to bear fruit, it's okay, we have money now, when we want to eat back, my sister will go to the town to buy it for you." ”

Caiyun squatted down in front of her again, stared at Mu Xiang's face, and asked her expectantly, "Then can we have a few more?" ”

Mu Xiang nodded, "Of course you can, there is such a large open space in front of our house, so let's do it, the peach tree is planted at the back of the house, two pear trees are planted in front of the door, and a persimmon tree must be planted outside the courtyard wall, well, I want to think about it, it would be nice if I could plant an apple tree, and you two will be able to eat apples when you turn back." ”

"What is an apple?" Caiyun asked her with a wink.

Mu Xiang looked at her little face with some sadness, "The apple is like the little face of our Caiyun, red and fluttering, tender and tender, bite it down......" She deliberately approached her sister's face and opened her mouth as if she wanted to bite her.

Her move made Caiyun stand up in fright, hurriedly retreat to the door, and then look at the smile in her sister's eyes, and then understand that the eldest sister is teasing her.

"Oh, big sister, you're so annoying!"

Caiyun blushed and ran out.

These days, her family is having a better life, there is no need to worry about not having enough to eat, and Mu Lang and Caiyun's bodies have also grown.

Especially Caiyun, the size has changed a lot, the clothes made by Mu Xiang for her are obviously smaller, the family wants to build a house, and she can't spare her hands to make clothes, so she sent the fabric to Grandma Wang and asked her to help Caiyun make two sets of clothes. Grandma Wang is also worried, she has recently received a lot of Muxiang, and she can't repay this love! As soon as he heard that he wanted to help Caiyun make clothes, he naturally agreed, not only to help Caiyun, but also to help Mu Lang make two sets of long-sleeved shirts.

Mu Xiang thought that there were still a lot of things at home that he hadn't prepared, and he had to get them ready before the New Year, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get on the set when the snow closed the mountain.

She was so focused that she didn't even notice that there was a person standing in the back window, and it was Wu Qing who knocked on the window twice to attract her attention.

"Ah, I thought you weren't coming?" Mu Xiang saw Wu Qing standing outside the window, and naturally wanted to see the scene in the morning.

Wu Qing didn't come in, his facial features were not ugly, and he could even be said to be a little handsome, but he had a straight face, as if he was paralyzed, at least in Mu Xiang's eyes. Thinking of his master's instructions, Wu Qing hesitated for a long time, and he didn't know how to speak.

Seeing his spitting appearance, Mu Xiang didn't pay much attention to it, and went straight to the kitchen to bring a small clay pot with a lid, only the size of a plate, protected by a lid, and the dishes inside would not be cold.

Mu Xiang stuffed the pot to Wu Qing, "These are for you, although I don't know if you will, but I promised you that I will definitely keep them for you, but if you don't come by tomorrow, it's really gone." ”

Holding the warm clay pot, Wu Qing's face, which had always been paralyzed, was rarely flushed, and a trace of warmth rose in his heart, "Thank you Miss Mu, I brought things back!" ”

Watching him turn around, with a flash, the human influence was gone. Mu Xiang shook her head and sighed, it turned out that the legendary light skills were like this, coming and going freely, walking like the wind, if she could practice, how good it would be, it would be too convenient to come and go to Linquan Town.

Wu Qing held the small clay pot and didn't dare to delay on the road, but in order not to attract attention, he chose to walk on a sparsely populated path and entered the gate of the town.

When he entered the gate of Fushou Building, he met Tang Mo who was reading the accounts at the counter, he nodded slightly, and went upstairs directly.

Tang Mo was holding the brush in one hand and still flipping through the account book in the other, just as Wu Qing walked in front of him, he smelled a different aroma.

Junlang's brows furrowed, the pen was thrown away, and he was unhappy, "I don't have righteousness, I don't even call me if I have good things to eat, I secretly hide in the house to eat alone, stingy, a dignified prince, he is so stingy, hum!" ”

With a roll of his eyes, he had a plan, "Lao Liu, go and bring up the wine that the master put in the cellar last time." ”

Tang Mo hooked his lips, the wine was given by the emperor, and it was really distressing to think about it.

Wu Qing knocked on the outer door with something in his hand, and only after getting the master's response did he dare to push the door in, "Lord, this is what you want." ”

Helian Sheng looked up from behind the desk, looked at the bowl he was holding in his hand, and said lightly: "Just put it there, you go out first!" ”

Wu Qing put down his things and withdrew. Although Mu Xiang said that this beef was given to him, he is not stupid, the master is clearly Yang monopolized, can he rob it from the master?

Helian Sheng stared at the small black crockpot, his sexy thin lips slowly hooked. Even if he didn't see it, he could imagine through this clay pot what Mu Xiang looked like when he was making this dish. That girl has a stubborn temper and a strong temperament.

Obviously she should be a weak little girl, but that day when she faced the ferocious wild leopard, she dared to shoot it with a bow and arrow face to face. This courage is by no means something that an ordinary little girl can have.

But Mu Xiang's identity, he sent someone to check. A simple family, a simple life experience. I heard that I used to like someone named Zhao Xiuwen, but later Zhao Xiuwen changed his mind. Now she lives alone with her younger siblings. With her little cleverness, life has gotten better little by little.

Helian Sheng walked to the table and lifted the lid of the clay pot, and the rich aroma of meat wafted out.

When Mu Xiang cooked this dish at home, he considered that the potatoes would rot if they were simmered in a clay pot for a long time, and they would not taste good. Therefore, when loading the pot, it was loaded in advance, and now it has been simmered for so long, and it is just right to eat.

"Helian, my lord invites you to drink," Tang Mo pushed open the door, still holding a tray in his hand, with a few side dishes in it, and a small jar of wine.

Helian Sheng was not angry at his intrusion, sat down and said: "If you have a purpose, you don't have to make excuses!" ”

Tang Mo put his things down, his smile was gone, and his face was complaining, "You are not interesting enough, you don't call me if you have delicious food, this is beef made of woody fragrance?" Wow, that's delicious," he leaned over to the table, staring at the beef in the small pot, and swallowed in dismay.

Helian Sheng glanced at him strangely, and sneered: "Pay attention to the image, you are also the owner of Fushou Building, your restaurant is the largest restaurant in our Southern Jin Kingdom, what, do you want to slap yourself in the face?" ”

was ridiculed by him, Tang Mo was not angry, dragged a stool over, put the wine glasses and chopsticks on the table, and said with a smile: "The master doesn't do the slapping of the face, and my cook's skills have not degraded, it's just ...... I eat a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and occasionally change to clear porridge and side dishes, and the taste is also good. ”

As soon as the things were laid out, Tang Mo couldn't wait to take a piece of beef, chewed it heavily, and nodded frequently from time to time, "This girl's dish is good, although it is not as beautiful as the chef's dish, but the taste is ......" He shook his head, as if he was thinking about how to describe it.

Helian Sheng suddenly answered and said: "It's the taste of home, such a profound thing, with your brain, you can't figure it out." He also took a piece of beef and chewed it slowly, as if he was savoring something. I have to say that although these two people eat the most ordinary and civilian food, their demeanor has not changed. Especially Helian Sheng, every gesture is full of elegance and respect, even Tang Mo is not as good as him.

Tang Mo raised his head and drank a glass of wine, poured it again, and his eyes suddenly deepened a lot, "It's time for you to go back to Beijing, the will has been made for so long, if you don't go back, it's not like words, and...... I have to go back, too. ”

Helian Sheng looked cold, and only nodded after a while, "It's not bad to go back with you, let's take the waterway, hurry up." ”

Tang Mo snorted, "Don't delay in the middle of the waterway, it's really faster, I heard that this time I'm going to give you a new palace, maybe I'll be happy, and I will give you a princess!" Guess it's my little sister? ”

Helian Sheng saw that he was smiling very poorly, and he was not angry, but said lightly: "Do you think anyone can enter my palace and sleep in my bed?" Be my woman? What about the emperor's decree, he is your son! ”

Although he didn't say the latter words, the implication was obvious: It's you Lao Tzu, not my Lao Tzu, what he said, does it have anything to do with me?

Tang Mo stroked his forehead, "I obeyed you!" ”――
