Chapter 101: Lone Lamp
Early in the morning, the morning exercise is over. Zuo Zhishu asked the head of the regiment for leave, because he had read the book, it was easy to write a leave note, unlike some people, he had to ask him to write a leave note, and after the approval of the head of the regiment, he went to the winery to find the fat man who was originally in trouble outside, this guy is a winemaker, and now he is popular in the princess's mansion winery.
Except for the one chicken leg left over from the morning, this chicken leg was completely wrapped in a cloth. He also had to prepare a jar of sake, so he came to the brewery, and today he was going out of the city to pay homage to a strange friend who had only known him for three days in the buried bone forest!
Returning from the back mountain, she poured a glass of spirits with the tired Wu Yueya, poured it into her heart, sat quietly on the chair, and looked at the scroll hanging on the wall, feeling slightly worried in her heart.
Close your eyes and take a nap while you're drunk, and when you wake up, it's already evening, and lead Koharu who was guarding the room to the back playground to cut some bamboo.
"Princess, why so much bamboo?" Koharu led the horse, followed behind Wu Yueya, and asked.
"Outside straight and in the middle, it's for bamboo, what do you think of drinking a bowl of bamboo from bamboo tonight?" Walk ahead, step on the small path paved with cobblestones, and meet the rare light before nightfall.
Koharu pursed her round face and thought, "Does the princess like to drink bamboo li?" ”
Looking back at this girl, she smiled dumbly, she really cared about herself, "Xiaochun, what do you like?" ”
"Koharu?" Glancing at each other, I feel that the identity of the master and servant is becoming more and more diluted, next year I am older than her, why do I always feel that the princess is like a big sister, not like a fifteen-year-old woman at all. "I am now Liu Xi's stepmother, in addition to bringing him up, my greatest wish is to serve the princess until I am old! This is also the mission of the subordinate! ”
His footsteps paused, and he continued to move forward, "You always said that I should find a colt, so did Koharu ever think about getting married?" ”
Dudu's round face flushed, she didn't think that being the maid of the princess's mansion was already a very lucky thing, if it was the maid of a large family, in addition to the identity of the subordinate, they were all the playthings of the Lang Jun, and they could give it away at will if they were tired of playing, or a friend visited and fell in love with the maid at home, and they could also exchange with each other to be slaves.
Hearing the princess ask, Koharu finally decided, "It's up to the princess to decide!" Koharu has no regrets! ”
"It's like parting with life and death, marrying you out is a sure thing, and I won't leave the princess's mansion! It's not like Lao Tzu, I have a toothache at the thought of marrying someone with this body, no, even if I have to find a colt, I will marry someone else! ”
Hearing the helpless voice of the little lady waving her sleeves, Xiaochun sneered, and the girl was surprised and responded expectantly, "Princess, the concubine we married back is a son-in-law!" ”
"Marry that son-in-law back, who is in charge of the princess's mansion?" Wu Yueya looked careless, and asked casually, she didn't plan to marry at all at present, even if it was her father-in-law's edict, she had to push it back!
"Of course it's the princess, the princess is a daughter, you are a royal family, and it is a blessing to be able to enter the princess's mansion for hundreds of generations! What's more, he's rich! Koharu led the horse to the backyard of the Tianci Pavilion and put down a large pile of bamboo.
"Let's get busy here, Xiaochun, you go stir-fry, let's eat stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots tonight!"
Koharu responded, and walked to the kitchen with the spring shoots he had dug up.
Wu Yue Aya went back to the house and took two flints, came to the kitchen, and looked at Koharu who was busy with Wan'er, the two women, their appearances are different, if you say who is better, Wan'er is better, but she thinks Koharu is very kind-hearted.
I took some dry firewood and bowls, maybe I got used to it, and they didn't stop it, when they came to the kitchen, they would always say that the princess would come, and the princess would come, and they wouldn't let anything go, maybe they couldn't help themselves, so they could only pay attention to this side while being busy, and if they needed help, they would come over immediately.
Make a fire in the yard, put the wet bamboo on it, wait for the bamboo to flow into the bowl, and at the same time split a few bamboos, put in the water, bacon and white rice, and cook the bamboo rice. Another bamboo tube is prepared, and the water is more than the meter, which has other uses.
After doing this, use a knife to split the bamboo, cut it into thin strips, and weave a cage-like thing.
When the white rice in the bamboo tube, where there is more water and less rice, turns into a sticky paste, and the white rice paper is pasted one by one to turn into a white lantern.
Place the candle in it, and the Kong Ming lantern is complete.
Not long after, it was dark, the dishes were served, Wu Yueya picked up the bamboo tube with pliers, and pulled all the rice into the big pot with chopsticks, the master and servant ate dinner peacefully, Xiaochun waited until everyone finished eating, and then picked up all the leftovers in the bowl into the bowl, and ate cleanly, not wasted at all.
Wu Yueya saw it in her eyes and slightly approved, maybe she should eat all the leftovers together in the future.
After drinking the bamboo drain, the bowl was handed over to Koharu, who was cleaning up the table.
Walked to the extinguished fire, leaned on the faint light of the lantern hanging under the eaves of the attic, bit his fingers, wrote the word "rest" on the paper, lit the wick inside, picked up the Kong Ming lantern, let it slowly rise into the air, and stopped the bleeding after a drop of blood fell from his fingers.
The flickering light in the dark night sky is not a star, but a lone lamp, which goes away with the wind, sending thoughts and memories to the other side.
"Little lady, why are you flying the lantern?"
Wan'er walked over, grabbed the princess's arm, and snuggled on the princess's shoulder, which was not generous, she could feel that the princess was a little sad at this time, and looked at the night sky with the princess with only flying lights, and her mood fell with the princess.
After a long time, he responded to Wan'er.
"Because today is Qingming! The direction in which the lights fly is Jingnan! ”
"Qingming, it's a pity that Wan'er doesn't have many memories of her family in her memory, and I don't know if they are doing well? I don't know where the ancestral grave is, does the little lady have relatives in Jingzhou? ”
Hearing Wan'er's question, I remembered that I hadn't told her about those things, and Jingzhou's words were not relatives! And listening to Wan'er's tone, she has been alone, hugging her soft shoulders, with a little embarrassment, "We are also a family, and now everyone in the princess's mansion is considered relatives." ”
After all, when she came here, the first people and things she met were in Shili Village, and her thoughts existed intermittently, but after that, she might not return to Jingzhou!
Not long after, Chu'er came back.
"What about the Book of the Left?"
Chu Er picked up a piece of pastry to satisfy her hunger, puffed out her mouth and said, "I really went to the forest, cried at an inexplicable dirt bag, and sprinkled wine to worship!" Not! ”
"That's good, after all, he knows too much, and if it's really a spy, I can't bear to take his life..."
The Kong Ming lantern ignited a beautiful and ephemeral spark in the air, and finally turned into ashes and scattered. Read the latest chapter of "Steamed Tang Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
