Chapter 056: Jumping into the Yellow River can't be washed
On dog days, torrential rain poured down. After this timely rain, the autumn harvest is not too bad.
Feng Ran ran around the field under the rain, everyone worked hard for so long, and finally waited for the harvest time. On her way home, under the fruit tree, she had itchy hands for a while, jumped up and grabbed two unripe peaches.
Because of the rain, the old man Li and his wife took refuge in the house to rest, but saw the lady of the main family running in front of the window with her head covered empty-handed.
Old man Li hurriedly found a worn-out oil-paper umbrella and threw it into Lao Tian's hand, urging: "Don't hurry up and send it to Mrs. ”
Lao Tian took the umbrella and ran out of the house, taking three steps and making two steps to catch the phoenix. He was more shy in front of the main lady alone, so he only shoved the oil-paper umbrella into her arms, bowed his head and said awkwardly: "Madam, here you go." With that, he staggered back again.
Feng Ran was slightly stunned, opened the oil-paper umbrella with a smile, and shouted thank you to Lao Tian, who had run away. Thinking that Old Man Li and his wife could take the opportunity to rest for a few more days, her mood became better and better.
As soon as he returned to Baxiazhou, he saw Yun'er and Sui Qi dressed in their robes and ready to go out.
"Yo~ What are you two doing?" Feng Ran said with a smile, obviously asking knowingly.
One big and one small coincidentally crossed their waists, and Yun'er said angrily: "Madame still knows to come back?" ”
"Does my mother want to get sick again?" Sui Qi asked, tilting his little head.
Feng Ran took out the unripe peaches and shook them in front of them, seducing them, "Do you want to taste them?" ”
"Madame, don't interrupt!"
"Like, the peaches must be very sour."
The two of them took off their robes while complaining, and pulled Feng Ran back to the west main room to wipe their bodies and change clothes.
"Oh, why are you two making such a fuss?" Feng Ran wiped her face and sat back in front of the makeup.
Yun'er took the scarf and wiped the back of Feng Ran clean, and said with a pout: "It's not for Hou Ye to make trouble, as soon as I turn around and can't find you, I'll shout in the opposite room." ”
"Brother Shui also left yesterday, this Hou Mansion is too clean, he is so idle and panicked. I'll go over and scold him in a moment. Feng Ran squeezed his eyes at Yun'er in the bronze mirror.
Sui Qi yawned and said helplessly: "Mother, I think my father's brain is getting worse and worse." Did the decoction you give him work? ”
Feng Ran hugged Sui Qi, rubbed his face and laughed, "Daqi, don't say this in front of your father." He's been getting better lately, and he might be able to chase you someday, and you won't be able to hide if you want to. ”
"Really?" Sui Qi couldn't help but snort, and quietly glanced at the door, "Mother, I'm a little scared." ”
"It's okay, don't be afraid of him, he's just a bastard."
As soon as these words came out, they only heard a "bang" outside the door, and the three of them were so frightened that they were silenced at the same time. Yun'er pulled the scarf and walked to the door, opened the crack in the door and looked out, but she didn't see any figure. She touched her heart, "Isn't it a fox who has entered the house?" ”
"Although Master Hou said that the fox is a spirit animal, I am still quite afraid." Feng Ran let go of the Sui Weapon, "You two have to be careful when you come out and go in." How big a fox can make that much noise? It's weird. ”
Sui Qi washed the peaches with water and handed them to Feng Ran, "Mother, can you taste it?" ”
Feng Ran took a bite unceremoniously, it was indeed quite sour, it was not big, and it had to wait for a while.
"Why don't you two take a bite?"
Yun'er and Sui Qi shook their heads vigorously, neither of them wanting to try. She snorted, picked up a peach and walked to the opposite room.
The sound of "bang" came from the hand of Sui Yu. He saw Feng Ran coming back from the window, and he didn't see her come in after waiting in the east main room for a long time, so he pushed the wheelchair to find the door of the west main room in a fit of anger. But before the others could get in, they heard Feng Ran scolding him inside.
Fortunately, he pushed the wheelchair very quickly, otherwise Yun'er would have seen his angry face when she pushed the door open.
"Would you like to try it?"
Feng Ran finally appeared in front of him, her black hair was still wet, her clothes had been changed, and she was still a little damp and stuck to her skin. It's like just getting out of the bath, it's hard to leave, and I want to smell the fragrance on her body.
"Yun'er and Daqi are not rare to eat, right?" Sui Yu mocked, "Otherwise, how can I be my turn?" ”
"How do you know?" Feng Ran said in surprise.
"I also know that you just called me a son of a son of a son in front of the two of them!" Sui Yu said with hatred.
"Understood." Feng Ran put down the peach that no one cared about, "You are the fox." ”
Sui Yuqian pulled her to him and said angrily, "Don't you know that it's raining outside? What if you just run out and get sick again? ”
"Huh?" Feng Ran flashed her curly eyelashes and hesitated.
"Who will take care of me when you're sick?" Sui Yu hurriedly explained, and a touch of red had spread on the root of his ear.
"Then you'll see I'm fine." Feng Ran tried to pull his wrist out, "Let go, your legs and feet are better, and your strength is still getting bigger?" ”
Sui Yu refused to let go, still staring at her intently.
"Loosen."
Feng Ran frowned slightly, and pulled his arm back, but was pulled back by Sui Yu. He simply wrapped his other arm around her waist, and with his hands he forcibly clasped her in his arms, and then sat on his lap.
"You, what are you doing? Leg...... Aren't you afraid of being pressed? Hurry up and let go. Feng Ran was at a loss, only to feel an indescribable heat coming out of the back of his neck.
"Before......" Sui Yu slurped in her ear, "don't you like this?" On the way to Jin County, in the camp tent, you didn't treat me like this. ”
At that time, he dared to take advantage of him, didn't he rely on his inconvenience? knew that he was just an ornament, and he couldn't accomplish anything, so he dared to tease him. How can it be the same now? After such a long period of contact, can he not count in her heart?
It's over, it's not enough to say that you like Sui Yu, and you still have to put your own body in it? I knew that he had this thought, and he said that he shouldn't save him, but he should have been paralyzed and lame. Feng Ran figured it all out now, he dug a big pit for himself by himself, and was forced to jump down by Sui Yu.
"The sky is blue, Master Hou, you can't do this!" Feng Ran buried his cheeks, "I'll change the prescription for you at night and kill the turbidity in your body." It is guaranteed that from tomorrow, Hou Ye will be able to purify his heart and few desires, and be dedicated to the Buddha ......."
"Fucking light!" Sui Yu grabbed her chin with one hand and kissed her cheek deeply.
"No! Hou Ye can't! ”
"Why can't I? How do you know I'm not good? ”
Feng Ran missed his face, put his chin on his shoulder bone, and stammered: "When you can move freely, you can't do it like this now, I ...... I don't like it to be too rigid. ”
What kind of tiger and wolf words did she say? The more she described, the darker it became, even if she came through, she felt that what she said was a little too unrestrained.
Sui Yu was really dumbfounded, he just wanted to kiss her and hug her, and he really didn't dare to covet the rest of the things. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I know it's not the time yet.
"Madame, what a sword!" Sui Yu's face was red, his ears were hot, and his hands slowly relaxed, "I can't see that you like that...... In the end, I underestimated you. ”
This time, she jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away. A lifetime of good reputation, just like that, ruined.
Feng Ran sensed that he let go of his hand, and Ma Yu'er pulled down, leaning against the side of the big red sandalwood case and gasping for air.
"You ......"
"Don't ask, I'm not going to say anything."
"Then wait until I'm completely healed."
"I'll never give you any more medicine! You're going to be crippled all the time! ”
With that, she covered her hot face and ran out of the east room, leaving Sui Yu messy in the thunderstorm.
It rained heavily in Jinxian County, but Chihuyi was cloudless. It is said that the two places are not very far apart, but the difference in climate is so big.
In the past few days, Shui Sheng has traveled between Chihu Pass and Chihu Yi, and according to the instructions of Sui Yu before leaving, he has observed the fortifications of Chihu Pass, as well as the new capital city that has just been built.
Dongye's monitoring of the crossing station and the road guide is not strict, and the aquatic life has crossed the Daxing Mountain, and he has not encountered any officers and soldiers who have checked their identities along the way. Xu is the border market has been very lively these days, and most of the troops have secretly concentrated there.
Shui Sheng squatted in Chihuyi for three days in a row, went to the woods on the outskirts of the city at night to deal with it, and wandered around the city during the day in order to observe the current situation of Higashino. It was not until he had eaten all the dry food he had brought with him that he had to return to Northern Lebanon.
When he returned to the Aquatic Life of the Marquis of Jiansheng's Mansion, he ate two large pots of food directly in the kitchen, he was really hungry these days. No matter what you do, you need to have money first.
On the way back, when he passed through the field of crops that was about to grow, his eyes lit up, and where was the food, it was obviously the hope of survival.
"You rest, don't rush this time." Sui Yuqin brought him a cup of tea, "Sit down and talk slowly." ”
Shui Sheng took the tea cup with both hands, and without too much politeness, he was already sitting on the chair opposite Sui Yu.
"It seems that there are not many officers and soldiers guarding the Red Tiger Pass, but the small ones feel that it is an illusion. There must be more troops there than on the Jinxian side. I think ......"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"Although I have no evidence, this time has passed a bit shortly. But I think the people living near the Red Tiger Pass are military households, and they are the kind of tough military households that are drawn from all over the country. On weekdays, there is no difference between them and the people, but it's hard to say what happens behind the scenes. ”
Sui Yu supported himself with one hand, stroked his cheek with his thumb, and said, "Ling Che, is this a game to taste the guts?" ”
"There are different opinions about the real reason for the relocation of the capital in Higashino, but there is one thing that I think makes some sense." Shui Sheng put the tea cup back on the red sandalwood case and said softly: "The climate of the old Chihuyi is warm, and they are looking for a place that is more suitable for permanent development." In the vicinity of Chihuyi, I saw that many people were cultivating the land. ”
"Reclamation? Reclamation this season? ”
"It's just a small plot of land behind our yard, and they probably want to grow crops on a large scale. I guess it's just started, and it will take two or three years to get results, right? "Aquatic life speaks of his analysis and judgment.
Sui Yu knew that most of the things that Dongye gave to Beili Nagong every year were Haidongqing, mink, horses, etc. What Higashino lacks is food. Ling Che moved the capital to a warmer area, and began to cultivate the wasteland and farm, so it was clear what he was hiding in his mind.
Ling Cheken looked up to Beili, admitted his shortcomings, and did not rest on his laurels like the previous lords. If this wolf is raised, Beili is afraid that he will not be able to resist it anymore. ”
