Chapter 125
"Grocery shopping?" Uncle Beggar intercepted Yang Yue in the front hall.
"Did the seniors have orders?"
"It's not a big deal...... My good grandson is back now, can we eat some meat? Uncle Beggar said earnestly, "Don't make some meat foam, it's not enough to stuff your teeth." Remember, you want a large piece of meat, fat and thin, three layers of fat and three layers of lean ......"
"Uncle......" Yang Yue wanted to interject but couldn't.
"If you don't want to buy a chicken, you can stew a hen in soup, a rooster can be braised in a braised rooster, and a chicken with an unopened throat can be steamed......"
"Uncle ......"
Uncle Beggar didn't give him a chance to speak at all: "It's best to buy some mutton, buy plum meat and barbecue skewers, buy lamb legs and cook mutton soup, whether you can pick this leg of mutton, the meat quality is very important, forget it, I'll buy it with you." ”
Yang Yue was embarrassed: "Uncle, I'm not going to buy vegetables." ”
Uncle Beggar paused, and then waved his hand indifferently: "No matter where you go, Uncle will accompany you!" Let's go! ”
Yang Yue didn't know what to do, and was pushed out by him. Uncle Beggar had to hug him affectionately by the shoulder, which made him extremely awkward.
"Da Yang, you know, I have always been very optimistic about your child, you are honest and steady, and the food is delicious," Uncle Beggar hugged him, "It's not a little bit better than their ......."
The two of them had been together for too long, and when Uncle Beggar spoke, the spittle Xingzi was splashed on Yang Yue's face without any waste.
Yang Yue broke away from him uncomfortably, and asked politely, "Uncle, what's the matter with you?" ”
"It's not a big deal, it's just ...... Your dad is in Yangzhou now, right? Uncle Beggar asked.
I didn't expect the topic to come to my father all of a sudden, Yang Yue didn't know what he meant, nodded and said, "Yes, he has a bad leg, so he stayed in Yangzhou Xie's house." ”
"You've been out for so long, your father should be worried. You should think for the elderly, don't patronize yourself and play outside, and often write to him to report his safety. Uncle Beggar glanced at the look on his face, "Look, I know at a glance that you haven't even written a letter after coming out for so long, right?" ”
“…… Because I often go out on weekdays, my father has always been more at ease, so he doesn't have the habit of writing letters halfway. Yang Yue explained.
"That's why I said that you are still children, you are not sensible at all, and you have not considered the state of mind of your parents at all." Uncle Beggar began to teach him, "My mother is worried, do you know? Now that the two Zhejiang provinces are in such chaos, and the Japanese are running all over the place, you have been here for so long, you should at least write to his old man to report his safety. ”
Yang Yue thought about it and felt that he was right, so he nodded and said, "Well, then I'll go back and write a letter to report safety." ”
"That's right." Uncle Beggar was very satisfied, paused for a moment, and then said, "Look, isn't it a happy event to have an uncle like me and an aunt to Mrs. Shen this summer?" ”
“…… Oh, yes. Yang Yue was surrounded by him, his head was a little dizzy, so he had to say simply, "Uncle, can you say something directly?" Shall we not go around it? ”
"Okay, then I'll get straight to the point." Uncle Beggar hesitated for a moment, "As the saying goes, one day is a teacher and a father is a life, and your father Yang Chengwan is the master this summer, right?" So he's just like this summer's daddy, right? ……”
Yang Yue looked at him with difficulty.
"So this summer's happy event, should you mention it to your father?" Uncle Beggar looked at him with great sincerity.
"What's the happy event?" Yang Yue's mind hadn't turned around yet.
"You kid, didn't I just tell you that she got my uncle and an aunt, isn't it a happy event! Shouldn't you mention it to your daddy? Uncle Beggar continued to be kind and intimidating.
Yang Yue admitted: "Okay, I'll just mention it." ”
Uncle Beggar was very satisfied, and explained the last important matter: "When I mentioned Mrs. Shen, I remember to say that she is from Quanzhou, Fujian, and her maiden name is Lin. ”
"Do you want to say that too?"
"Of course! If you don't explain it, your father will definitely be alone and think nonsense: who is her uncle and what kind of person is her aunt, and you can only know the roots. You can't let your daddy bother with this god, you know? ”
"Understood." Yang Yue probably sorted out the front and back, "What you mean is to say, let me write a letter to my father to report his safety, and then remember to tell him that he has an uncle and an aunt this summer, and I have to say that Mrs. Shen's maiden family is the Lin family in Quanzhou Mansion, Fujian, right." ”
"Yes, yes, that's it." Uncle Beggar wiped his sweat, shook his head and said, "You kid, everything is good, it's just that your brain is too slow, and such a little thing takes me a long time, and I talk about sweating." ”
Yang Yue looked at Uncle Beggar helplessly, and sighed secretly, such a simple matter, it was really embarrassing for him to be said so badly.
********************************************************************
In the evening, Yang Yue called this summer to the stove to make a fire for himself, and by the way, he repeated what Uncle Beggars wanted him to do in the day.
"He specifically asked you to write to the chief? And I want to mention the Lin family ...... Quanzhou, Fujian, "This summer took a burning stick, while absentmindedly poking his head into the stove, while thinking, "Last time, my aunt said that there was an old man in the capital who had a similar life to the head, that is, they were also guessing that the head was the old man, so I asked you to write a letter to tempt." That's something we thought of! ”
"I just don't understand, it's a very simple thing, why he has to make such a big detour." Yang Yue was puzzled.
"Don't forget, Mrs. Shen is a person who has experienced great changes, and she has always been taboo to let others know her identity." This summer said, "My uncle loves Wu and Wu, and he will definitely be careful when it comes to her." ”
"Then I'll write a letter. By the way, don't you mention the matter of the master of Shangguan Hall? ”
"Just mention it, and say that her injuries are healed. I think she's barely able to walk, and in a few days of recovery, I guess she'll be able to figure it out...... By the way, is the black-bone chicken stewed? ”
"Okay, this chicken can't be stewed for too long, otherwise the meat will all be scattered."
This summer, the fire is no longer burning, so I jumped up and went to serve chicken soup: "I'll serve a bowl to Lord Lu first." ”
"If you don't light the fire, what will I do here?"
"I'll call the Xie family brother to you immediately, he is idle when he is idle."
This summer, I will serve the chicken broth, put it on a tray, and walk outside with my feet raised.
"Xia Ye!" Yang Yue called her.
She stopped and looked back: "What are you doing?" ”
"You be reserved, okay!" Yang Yue smiled, "It's a girl's house." ”
"Got it, I'll try!"
****************************************************************
Carrying the chicken soup into Lu Yi's house, as soon as he entered the door this summer, he hurriedly greeted: "Come and drink the chicken soup, there is also astragalus and codonopsis in it, which replenishes the middle and nourishes the qi, supports the poison and builds muscles, and it is good for wound healing." ”
Lu Yi got up and smiled: "You cooked it?" ”
"I watched Da Yang cook it." Jinxia grinned and put the chicken soup in front of him, "Drink it slowly, blanch it carefully." ”
Lu Yi was not in a hurry to drink, and slowly stirred it with a spoon, his eyes only looked at this summer, but he didn't speak.
"What's wrong?" This summer was inexplicable by him, and he touched his face suspiciously, "Is my face dirty?" Just now I helped Dayang to light the fire in the stove, did he rub the coal ash? ”
"I'll wipe it for you."
As he spoke, Lu Yi raised his sleeves and wiped it on her face, his movements were extremely gentle, for fear of hurting her, so he wiped it slowly, one by one, as if with infinite affection.
Sensing something strange, this summer grabbed his hand and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"It's nothing ......" Lu Yi smiled reluctantly, turned her hand and wrapped her hand into her palm, and changed the topic, "Do you know, I had a dream when I was in Cen Gang, and I dreamed of you." ”
Hearing that he dreamed of himself, he was really interested in this summer, and said happily: "What do you dream of me?" ”
Lu Yi gestured with his hand at the level of the tabletop, and said with a slight smile: "You are only so tall, with a bun, jumping up and down the street and leading me forward." ”
"And then?" This summer urged him to speak quickly.
"You go to the door of a house, and there are two stone lions squatting at the door, with stone beads in their mouths. You climb up and play with the ball with your hands, and you play with it. ”
Jin Xia laughed: "I only told you about this once, so you still remember." What did I look like when I was a child? Does it look pleasing? Isn't it particularly painful? ”
"It's pretty much the same as it is now, it's quite painful."
Lu Yi smiled.
"I think so." Shake your head this summer.
Looking at her, Lu Yi couldn't help but think of when she was in Yangzhou City, she hugged the fat cat and asked him aggrievedly: My lord, don't you think I'm also very distressing? A sentence that he didn't care much about at the time, when he thinks back today, he is extremely emotional. He was just distressed about her......
"Let's drink chicken soup, it's not good if it's cold."
Urging him this summer, he suddenly heard the sound of a horn in the distance, and suddenly his whole body tensed, and he only said that the wolf had gone and returned, and he listened carefully, not knowing what this horn meant. Lu Yi saw her nervousness, and pressed her hand on her: "It should be the welcome horn for General Qi to return to the city." ”
"General Qi has returned to the city?!"
*****************************************************************
Due to the timely receipt of Mrs. Qi's letter, Qi Jiguang had insight into the intentions of the Japanese invaders, and only sent his subordinate Hu Shouren back to Xinhe City, while the main force remained in Ninghai, waiting for the appearance of the enemy.
Sure enough, less than half a day after Hu Shouren's return to help, an urgent military situation came, and a large number of Japanese robbers had gathered to prepare for a large-scale invasion of Taizhou. Qi Jiguang led the army to Taizhou overnight, and encountered the Japanese in Huajie, which was still two miles away from Taizhou City. In the battle of Huajie, the Japanese suffered more than 1,000 casualties, the whole army was defeated, more than 5,000 people were rescued, and the total casualties of the Qi army were three.
Xie Xiao paced back and forth in front of the hall, his face glowing red, sometimes rubbing his hands, sometimes muttering to himself.
"Brother Xie, what's wrong with him?"
Chun Yumin helped Yang Yue set the meal, and looked at Xie Xiao puzzled.
"He and this summer went to see the Qi family's army drills, and when they came back, they didn't pay attention to him." Yang Yue didn't raise his eyelids, focusing on the dish, "...... This shredded potato, you remember, when the potato is fried in oil, it will appear light-colored, if you wait until it is golden before fishing, it will be browned when it comes out of the pot. So if you want the color to be beautiful, you have to get out of the pot a little earlier. ”
Chun Yumin looked sideways at the potato and nodded frequently: "I see." You taste it, how does it taste? ”
After taking the chopsticks, Yang Yue tasted a piece: "Crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside, the sugar juice is just right." ”
Hearing his affirmation, Chun Yumin pursed his lips and smiled: "Next time I try again, I'm afraid that this shredded potato is too sweet and greasy, and no one will want to eat it again." ”
"Don't worry, with Xia Ye here, no matter how many plates you make, she can give you food." Yang Yue said with a smile.
This summer, I happened to come in with Lu Yi, and when I saw Xie Xiao still wandering around the courtyard, I called him to come and eat. It wasn't until Uncle Beggar, Mrs. Shen, and Cen Shou all came, and everyone sat down, that Xie Xiao came in, sat down on the stool, and said, "I have decided, I want to join the army, and I will join the Qi family's army!" ”
“……”
Everyone was still stunned, and Uncle Beggar was the first to speak: "Okay! Hero, come, I'll replace wine with tea, and I'll toast you first. ”
Xie Xiao was quite excited, stood up, and the two touched the teacup and drank the tea.
"A manly man should go out vertically and come back sideways!" Uncle Beggar was quite excited for him, "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once ......he is gone."
"Ahem, uncle, don't make trouble, he is not Jing Ke assassinating King Qin." This summer, he dragged the beggar uncle to sit down, and said puzzledly, "Uncle, you have worked hard yourself, and you have always only circled around my aunt, but asked others to go out vertically and come back horizontally." Tell me, what do you think? ”
"Everyone has their own aspirations! Yu Guo," Uncle Beggar pointed to Xie Xiao, and then to himself, "Yu Jia, have a clear conscience." ”
couldn't talk about him, turned to Xie Xiao this summer, and persuaded: "Brother, joining the army is not a trivial matter, you should at least write a letter to discuss with your father?" Yang Yue just wrote a letter back, and the letter mentioned that Xie Xiao and Shangguan Xi happened to be with them, Xie Xiao suddenly wanted to join the army on a whim, and if he didn't make it, Old Man Xie thought he was being teased by her and Yang Yue.
Speaking of his father, Xie Xiao felt that his brain was swollen, and he waved his hand and said, "Discuss with him, it will definitely not work." From childhood to adulthood, I wanted to do something, and it would be nice if they could say yes to one out of ten. ”
"That'...... You must at least discuss it with Sister Shangguan. This summer continued.
Xie Xiao frowned and said: "She must have a lot to say, this is not good, that is not good, in short, the women are verbose." Besides, she's still hurt, and I don't want to bother her, maybe I'll have to quarrel again. ”
This Xie Xiao is an unrestrained character, he wants to play a play, he can't take him this summer, and he is afraid that the old man Xie will misunderstand, so he quietly stabbed Lu Yi twice under the table, and motioned for him to help say something.
Lu Yi said slowly: "It's a good thing to join the army, at present, the two Zhejiang and Zhejiang are rampant, and it is precisely the need for a person with strong martial arts like Brother Xie." ”
He had never heard a consensual word from his mouth, Xie Xiao didn't expect him to agree, so he shook his head, and then said aloud: "Look! Even Lord Lu thinks I should join the army! ”
"General Qi's recruitment regulations, I wonder if Brother Xie has read it?" Lu Yi asked.
"Recruitment regulations?" Xie Xiao was again, "Not yet, but I estimate it, that is, to try my skills, no problem." ”
Lu Yi shook his head and said: "The difference between this remark and General Qi's recruitment is not only based on martial arts, but also on spirituality, and the use of physiognomy methods, avoiding the form of murder and death, and emphasizing the appearance of blessings." ”
Xie Xiao frowned when he heard this: "Heavy blessing, is he recruiting soldiers or going on a blind date?" ”
"I see that your doll has a big brain, and she looks quite blessed." Uncle Beggar encouraged him.
Lu Yi continued: "General Qi still has four wants and four don'ts, has Brother Xie ever heard of it?" ”
Xie Xiao shook his head: "What four want and four don't?" ”
"To put it simply, the first thing to choose is an honest person in the countryside, who is black and stout, with solid skin and flesh on his hands, and the color of clay. And he has to be a dull person in the countryside, afraid of the government, afraid of the law......"
"Wait, fear of the government and the law, what is the reason?" Xie Xiaoqi said, "Master, I am not afraid of heaven and earth, this is the best candidate to kill the Japanese Kou." ”
"In the army, it is one thing to kill the enemy, the most important thing is to follow orders. Those who are not afraid of the government and the law will definitely find it difficult to obey the management and obey the military orders. Such a person, no matter how good his kung fu is, it is a scourge to stay in the army. Lu Yi explained to him.
Xie Xiao scratched his neck, hesitated for a long time before he was disappointed: "So, they won't accept it if I go?" ”
"It's not just you," Lu Yi pointed at Cen Shou and Yang Yue, "Even if they go, General Qi won't accept it." ”
"Why is that?" Xie Xiao was puzzled.
"Those who have served in the government will not be accepted, because there are many slippery people in the government, and they are not available."
"Hahaha!" It turned out that none of the people at the table could enter the Qi family's army, Xie Xiao felt much better, and sighed, "General Qi's recruitment is really strict, no wonder the Qi family's army is so famous." ”
This summer, he threw an admiring glance at Lu Yi, and diligently coerced him with a lot of dishes.
