Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Scenery of the Back Mountain

"Huh?"

Listening to Hong'er's words, Ye Xiaoyu was a little surprised.

"It's okay miss, when I was cooking in the kitchen just now, it just so happened that Madame's maid Sister Yinhua was also cooking there, and she didn't want this rib after she shaved the meat."

Seeing Ye Xiaoyu's face full of worry, Hong'er continued to explain.

"Did she give it to you?"

"Yes, when she saw me cutting radish, she said that it was better to make soup with radish, and when she saw that I had no bones, she gave me the piece of meat she had shaved, and she said that she was useless in taking this bone, and there was no meat left......"

Hong'er cautiously continued to whisper.

"Do you know her well?"

Honeysuckle? Because she lives in Beiyuan with Jiang Ping, and she is a big girl, Ye Xiaoyu doesn't see her many times, and she doesn't know what she is.

"Well, we were both rescued from human traffickers by the old man, but she is older and more sensible than me, so I followed my wife, and she has always taken good care of my ......"

"Oh, that's it......"

Hong'er's words don't look like a lie, then Yinhua may really just give her this bone based on the psychology of taking care of Hong'er, and it's just a bone, so it's not a trap, right? Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoyu pulled Hong'er to sit on the table and beckoned her to eat.

I didn't eat in the morning, and I have been holding on until now, although Ye Xiaoyu ate 3 dumplings in the middle, she was also hungry, and Hong'er was even more exaggerated, as soon as she touched the rice, she couldn't say anything, and began to gobble it up.

After eating, Ye Xiaoyu helped Hong'er sort out the leftovers on the table, put them in the cupboard, and went to the hot water room to take out the dumplings.

"Hong'er, did we take this steamer from the kitchen that day?"

Ye Xiaoyu leaned back in his chair and asked.

"yes, I was scared that night, and then I forgot to take it back and return it...... Hiccup......"

Hong'er also ate well, leaning back in her chair and talking and hiccups.

"Take it back and return it when you cook in the afternoon, don't let others gossip......"

Although it is only a small steamer, if it is seen by others, it will be wasted to explain.

"Hmm. But Miss, let's eat so much at noon, do we still have to eat at night? ”

Hearing Ye Xiaoyu say that she still had to cook at night, Hong'er looked surprised.

"Of course, otherwise I'll be hungry after a long night."

Ye Xiaoyu gently knocked on Hong'er's head.

"Okay......"

Hong'er replied by covering her head with her hand.

"Hong'er, you go to sleep quickly, I'm going to take a lunch break too."

Hong'er was already dozing off frequently in the chair at this time.

"Then miss, I'm going to rest, the things on the table ......"

"There's nothing on the table, so let's leave the empty steamer like this......"

Ye Xiaoyu stood up from the chair as she spoke, walked to the bedroom in the back room, and fell directly on the bed......

On a winter afternoon, the sun is just warm. Ye Xiaoyu leaned sleepily under the big tree in the yard, drowsy. I suddenly woke up from a heavy nap just now, and thought that I would go to the back mountain to pick oranges in the afternoon, so I washed my face casually and rushed here, because I didn't have a watch, Ye Xiaoyu still couldn't adapt to the time here even if I came for so long. It's not a way to get up in a panic every day, and I don't have a way to grasp the sun, moon, stars and other tools used to keep time, the only thing that is more proficient is the daily rooster crow time, however, it is said to be proficient, but relatively speaking, according to the rooster's crow, Ye Xiaoyu can only roughly estimate the approximate time period.

The courtyard was empty, and everyone hadn't arrived yet, so it seemed that it was too early for me.

"Xiaoyu, came early......"

Ling Yu walked towards Ye Xiaoyu with a smile. He wore a short outfit that he usually wore when he practiced swords, and he was full of vitality. The warm winter sun sprinkled on his face and blurred his smile.

"I've just arrived, and Ling Gongzi has come early......

Ye Xiaoyu also responded with a smile.

"I've been here for so long, I haven't been to the back mountain, I guess it's going to be fun in the afternoon......

Ling Yu also walked under the big tree and started chatting with Ye Xiaoyu without a match.

"Picking oranges, some eating and some playing, I also think it will be fun."

Fortunately, Ling Yu came first, and he could still chat with him casually, if it was sunny, it was estimated that the scene would be silent and embarrassing now.

Although Ye Xiaoyu didn't like to see Qinglang's cold face, she still caught a glimpse of Qinglang walking over from the side while chatting with Ling Yu. He was also wearing a short suit, but contrary to Ling Yu's sunshine, even such a warm temperature did not melt the ice on his face, and his cold face was in the sun, like a delicately carved sculpture, handsome but without temperature.

"Good afternoon, sunny ......"

Ling Yu also saw the sunny day, and still greeted him warmly.

"Hmm."

Qing Lang still maintained his usual answer, he did not go to Ye Xiaoyu and the others, but sat down on the stone on the other side.

It's really super rude, Ye Xiaoyu wants to say hello to Ling Yu in the future, anyway, it's all "hot face and cold ass", but since he and Ling Yu are not too familiar, he didn't say it.

After a while, Qian Yi and Lu Qian also came to the courtyard, fortunately, it was Qian Yi who preceded Lu Qian, and as soon as he came, he asked everyone to gather around him, so that Lu Qian did not see the scene of Ling Yu and Ye Xiaoyu standing under the big tree together, otherwise, it is estimated that it will cause a disaster of tongues.

Qianyi mobilized for the afternoon's activities and reiterated the issue of security several times. After making sure that everyone had taken it to heart, they distributed a basket to everyone, and after doing this, everyone began to set off towards the back mountain under the leadership of Qianyi.

The back mountain is not far away, out of the back door of Lujiazhuang Beiyuan, along a small road all the way up, Ye Xiaoyu calculated, about half an hour away.

The path was quiet, and there was no one. The mountain is not high, like a small hill, but in the place where Quanxiu Village is surrounded by plains, it looks very abrupt. A stone staircase stretches from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, intersecting with the path, and the slope of the hill is cultivated into patches like terraces, and orange trees are planted on the mountain land, and the rows of dense roots are neat and spectacular from a distance.

Under the pressure of winter frost, the whole mountain became bare, except for the orange trees, which were still full of yellow, orange and orange oranges, crumbling and very eye-catching.

"The bleak grass and trees shake and decay, and the sorrow is as if they are traveling far away......"

Seeing such a depressed winter scene, Qianyi, who was walking in front of Ye Xiaoyu, couldn't help but sigh. After all, it is a literati in ancient times, even if the mind is re-enlightened, in the face of such a scene of decay, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of sadness and sadness.

"The sound of winter trees, the cold color of the mountains."

Ye Xiaoyu in the back couldn't help but say a word. She forgot where she saw this poem, and she forgot what the original sentence was, so she felt that it was quite appropriate for the situation, so she changed it slightly.

Hearing this, Qian Yi in front turned his head and smiled approvingly at Ye Xiaoyu.

"Okay, students, this is it......"

The wings stopped in a flatter place than the others.

"It's finally here, I'm going to be tired to death if I don't get there, I knew I wouldn't come......"

As soon as he stopped, Lu Qian began to complain.

"Qianqian, didn't you like this place before?"

Ling Yu remembered that Lu Qian had invited him to come to the back mountain to pick oranges.

"Uh...... I don't think it was that far away before......"

Lu Qian likes the process of being alone with Ling Yu, not oranges, let alone back mountains, why Ling Yu just doesn't understand, or rather, doesn't want to understand.

"Haha...... Will the mountain still move? ”

Ling Yu was amused by Lu Qian.

"Yes, it just moves......"

Lu Qian's tone was arrogant.
