Chapter 3: The Scourge of Fishing

In the next two days, Shi Qingqing and Xi'er had been waiting respectfully in front of the spirit, and they had never been in the other rooms, so Shi Qingqing was happy.

It's best if they don't come to make trouble.

At the time of the burial, Shi Qingqing looked at a person standing in the distance with a blue umbrella, as if looking at his side, his face was not real, it had rained for several days, and there was a thick fog in the mountains.

Shi Qingqing didn't pay attention to it, but just turned his head and asked, how old is Xiangye this year?

Xi'er hurriedly stepped forward and covered her mouth, and looked at the family who was burying the soil as if she hadn't heard it, so she let go, "Little ancestor, how can you call Xiangye like this, let someone with a heart listen to it and make trouble again." ”

Xi'er is not very old to speak, but she is old-fashioned, but it is precisely because of her own loose temperament that someone mentions it, so as not to make a big mistake.

Shi Qingqing didn't ask again, and then went back to the house after paying some respects.

It is false to say that it is not desolate.

A dignified man, the lady in the house died, and he had to be secretly transported up the mountain in the middle of the night to be buried.

If that person is really a master, Shi Qingqing will definitely be the first to go over and shave his ears.

"Miss, what do you think? Eat it! ”

A bowl of vermicelli broth on the table is accompanied by two meat buns, and because of the cooling, the vermicelli becomes soup jelly, and it makes people lose their appetite when they look at it.

But for those who have only eaten a few shriveled steamed buns in the past three days, it is already extremely rich, Shi Qingqing hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and gave them a bite.

He said vaguely: "Xi'er, why did the kitchen send these good things today?" ”

Xi'er also discovered the changes in Shi Qingqing after a few days of getting along, but seeing that it was getting better and better, Xi'er was also happy in her heart, and she just thought that Mrs. was blessing Miss in the sky, and she didn't ask more.

Seeing Shi Qingqing asking at this time, he hurriedly poured some of the soup jelly in his bowl before he spoke: "I heard that the Seven Princes will come tomorrow, and the kitchen is busy, busy preparing all kinds of delicacies, they don't have time to pick us, so they sent some casually." ”

After so many days, Shi Qingqing also asked on the side, coincidentally with the same name as the deity, but his ancestors absolutely did not have the number of the teacher, otherwise his father would have been displayed everywhere, the appearance of a country.

In this way, it can only be attributed to the Taoist sentence!

In fact, Shi Qingqing believes in Buddhism.

Xiang Ye has a total of five daughters and six wives under his knees, and the eldest lady has not come out, and the rest is the other ladies.

Shi Qingqing couldn't help but sneer, the Seventh Prince is coming, so many women must have to jump.

"I heard that the Seven Princes are the most handsome and the most romantic among the princes...... If the young lady can have a chance encounter, she will fly on the branch and be a phoenix......

Since then, he has been at the pinnacle of life.

Before the words came to his mouth, he caught a glimpse of Shi Qingqing staring straight at him with his eyes, and his heart was empty, "Ahem, what is that, maybe the Seventh Prince has a unique taste...... "It's okay not to say it, but it's even more empty after speaking."

No matter how unique it is, I won't look down on the teacher.

Shi Qingqing quietly poured all the soup jelly in the bowl into his own bowl, and then said to Xi'er, who was wandering in the dream river, "You can tease me hard, my mother is watching you in the sky!" ”

Xi'er's face stiffened, swallowed her saliva, and shivered coldly.

"I'm also thinking about Miss, so Madam won't blame me!"

Miss is so bad, so bad.

"Hey, where's the food in my bowl?"

Xi'er stared at the empty bowl and was stunned, is there a thief at home?

Wrong......

Who is going to steal this, Xi'er looked up at Shi Qingqing, who was wiping her mouth and patting her belly opposite, and yelled: "Miss~!! ”

Shi Qingqing squinted, "I can't see your mouth when I eat, so I'll eat for you." ”

Shi Qingqing saw that she still wanted to resist, and said quietly: "If you dare to offend again, my mother may come to you at night!" ”

Xi'er really got hit, put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran to the bed quickly, "I'll sleep in it today!" ”

Shi Qingqing looked at her funny, this should be what a fifteen-year-old should look like.

"Whatever."

Shi Qingqing gently spit out two words, then took off his coat and went up together.

Nothing was said all night.

Only the sound of rain keeps beating against the roof tiles, ticking and urging people to fall asleep.

*******************************

The next morning, the rain stopped.

The fine fragments of sunlight lazily projected through the windows, and the particles of dust could be seen between the beams, but it made me feel comfortable.

Shi Qingqing stretched his waist, touched his belly, which was almost flattened, sighed, and sat up, "Xi'er...... Xi'er? ”

Because I slept late last night, I didn't wake up until the third pole master Qingqing woke up in the day, and there was no trace of Xi'er by the couch.

After calling for a long time, there was no response, Shi Qingqing estimated that Xi'er should go to the kitchen to get food.

So he got up and washed up slowly.

There is no hot water, and all they send here is cold and biting well water, not even hot tea, let alone charcoal fire, and if they continue like this, they will either starve to death or freeze to death.

Shi Qingqing took a sharp breath and quickly put his hand into the water, took a handful of water and washed his face, it was really cold.

Shi Qingqing hurriedly ran into the sun and sighed, rubbing his hands vigorously and stomping his feet to keep warm.

I can't live this day.

Just as he was sighing, he saw Xi'er enter the courtyard with red eyes.

Xi'er didn't expect Shi Qingqing to be there, so she couldn't dodge for a while, and she hurriedly walked a few steps before planning to enter the house.

"Stop!"

Shi Qingqing sighed, at this hour, the Seven Princes should have come to the mansion, and the whole mansion must be revolving around that person, and there is time to prepare food for himself.

Xi'er must have been humiliated again.

"When you dragged me out of that wood house the other day, I saw that there was a pond by the side of the promenade, and there were fish there?" Shi Qingqing turned around and pretended not to see Xi'er secretly wiping away tears, and changed the topic.

"Yes, yes, but since the eldest lady built a larger ornamental pond near her garden, few people have visited the pond by the promenade."

Xi'er looked at Shi Qingqing's eyes and couldn't help wondering, why did Miss want to go fish watching today?

"Then let's go!"

"Miss......"

Xi'er thought that Shi Qingqing was afraid that she would be unhappy, so she thought about going to enjoy the fish, but at the moment, she didn't even have food to eat, and there was nothing to appreciate, so she hesitated and didn't want to go.

Shi Qingqing feigned anger and said, "Let's catch fish to eat, do you want to starve to death?" If you don't want to starve, come with me! ”

Xi'er still has a lot of concerns, not to mention that the eldest lady is a lady, even if she can't do such a thing, if she is discovered, she will be punished, and she will be punished... If you are bitten by the ladies of the other houses and are expelled from the house, it is light, and the sun is indeed out today, but the water is still cold in winter, and there is no fishing rod in the courtyard, wouldn't it be freezing to death if you go into the water to catch fish?

Shi Qingqing glanced at Xi'er's twisted face, and burst into a smile, "Starve to death or freeze to death, you choose!" ”

Leaving the words down, he didn't care about Xi'er, and went straight to the pond over there.

Xi'er saw Shi Qingqing striding forward, touched the belly that was screaming, and gritted her teeth with a heartbeat, she would rather freeze to death than be a full ghost.

"Miss, Miss, wait for me!"

stamped his feet and hurriedly chased after him,

Shi Qingqing smiled slightly when he heard the sound behind him, as expected.

The two joked with each other all the way, and after a while, they came to the pond where Shi Qingqing first passed.

The pond on the verge of desolation is nothing but weeds and the remnants of lotus flowers that have withered in the summer.

Shi Qingqing walked around to the natural barrier described by the rockery behind the pond, and took off his shoes, revealing a pair of slender and white jade feet.

As soon as the jade foot touched the ground where there was no sunlight, it was so cold that Shi Qingqing shivered.

Xi'er saw that she was busy and took off her shoes and socks to replace Shi Qingqing, "Miss, let Xi'er go, Xi'er ......"

Shi Qingqing feigned anger and said: "Where can you catch fish if you are clumsy, last night my mother told me a dream to tell me a way to catch fish, I'll try it, you are here to keep watch, if you hear her voice, you will report it in time, can you hear it?" ”

Xi'er originally wanted to say that Mrs. had never been out of the door, where did she learn to fish, but when she saw Shi Qingqing's angry face, she was silent, and watched Shi Qingqing tiptoe into the water.

Xi'er knew that the young lady was worried that she wouldn't be able to stand it.

But how could she stand it herself? So Xi'er, who wanted to do something for Shi Qingqing, cheered up and put a sentry for Shi Qingqing.

No matter how hot the sun is in winter, it can't shine into the dark water, Shi Qingqing's feet stepped into the mud, and strange mud and dirt appeared between his toenails, Shi Qingqing smiled slightly, remembering the picture of his father often taking him to the river to fish when he was a child.

However, as soon as Shi Qingqing stood firm, his feet slowly sank down, and his heart suddenly sank, and he had to fight quickly.

Shi Qingqing took a sharp breath and reached out to catch the fish swimming around at his feet.

Slip~

When the fish heard the noise, it swam away from between Shi Qingqing's feet and slid into the distance.

Shi Qingqing sighed, it seems that his fishing skills have declined rapidly.

So, in order not to alarm the water, Shi Qingqing bowed down, put his hands into the water, and kept this posture.

At this moment, half of Shi Qingqing's body was in the water.

Xi'er was in a hurry on the side, and she felt cold when she looked at it.

wanted to call Shi Qingqing to come up, but he was afraid that he would make a noise to attract the servants in the house.

I can only do it in a hurry.

Suddenly, there were some voices in the distance, from far and near, Xi'er quickly tensed her whole body and pricked up her ears.

"Seven princes, there is nothing to appreciate here, if you want to enjoy the fish, it is better to go to my aunt's place, the spring of the year before last, my aunt ordered someone to cast an ornamental pool twice as large as this, and the fish species in it are even more diverse, which is found by his father and his subordinates everywhere in the world."

It was Miss Six's voice. After finishing speaking, a casual male voice came, "It's okay, I'm tired of seeing it in the palace, so naturally I want to see something special, not elsewhere!" So, Miss Six lost her voice.

Xi'er secretly screamed bad when she heard it, not only the sixth lady who hated the eldest lady the most came, but even the seventh prince came, if they were allowed to find the wrong place, the eldest lady would be even more sad in the future.

Thinking of this, Xi'er hurriedly walked to the water's edge and gently called Shi Qingqing.

But Shi Qingqing was struggling with the fish swimming around in his hand at this time, and his mind was in one place, where he could hear Xi'er's gentle call.

I saw Shi Qingqing's lips pursed slightly, his pupils dilated, and he raised his hand out of the water.

Shouted, "I got it, I got it, Xi'er." ”

Xi'er saw the fish that Shi Qingqing was holding in both hands, and her heart sank, and it was over.

"Who's over there, Mei'er, go over and take a look." As Shi Qingqing's shouting fell, Miss Six's slightly excited voice came from a distance.

She clearly knew the eldest lady's voice, but she still pretended to call the personal maid to come over and take a look.

Xi'er sighed, it's really over now, I'm afraid that Miss Six wants to make a big deal out of it.
