At noon on this day, Yang Wenshan and his wife invited Liu Keshi and his mother to lunch together.

Yang Wenshan said: "The three children have also grown up, and they can't stay at home, so let them go for a while together." ”

Liu Keshi's mother said: "Don't worry, Keshi's father will take care of them." ”

Yang Wenshan said: "Keshi and Xiu'er are childhood sweethearts, and they are desperate to save Xiu'er in Liaoguo, I think I will order this family business today, and I will marry them as soon as Xiu'er comes back." ”

Liu Keshi's mother was also very happy and said, "Wow, Xiu'er is a good girl, but Keshi, don't toast your uncle and aunt yet." ”

Liu Keshi's face was flushed, he stood up and filled Yang Wenshan and his wife with wine, and said, "Uncle and aunt, I will treat Xiu'er well, and I will trouble you to help take care of my mother after I leave." ”

Yang Wenshan smiled: "Look, the world is more sensible and filial!" "The two families talked and laughed, and this family affair was settled.

The three of them said goodbye to their parents and rushed to Linzhou happily, as if they had endless energy, and they walked fast along the way.

On this day, the three of them stayed at an inn in a town until midnight, perhaps because they were too tired, and they did not get up at three o'clock the next day.

Yang Huaide was so hungry that he couldn't stand it so he had to put on his clothes, and after washing, he went to a restaurant, where he asked for two plates of side dishes, steamed buns and gruel, and packed a bag of meat buns to take back to Yang Huaixing and Liu Keshi.

The business of this restaurant is not bad, at this time, an exotic girl walked in, wearing a small white background patterned high hat, braided shawl, light green veil, only showing her eyes, wearing a long-sleeved skirt, a high neck and small shoulders, green pants, and red leather boots, like a fairy coming from the flowers.

I saw her sit down at a table, and the shopkeeper immediately ran over and asked, "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?" ”

The girl said, "What do you have to eat here?" ”

The shopkeeper said cautiously: "We have three threads of shark fin, red stewed monkey head, sweet and sour carp, sea buckthorn and laughter, and ......."

The girl said, "Sounds good, a plate of everything." ”

After a while, the dishes came up, and the girl lifted the veil and tasted each dish.

When she was almost done, the girl called the shopkeeper to settle the bill, but when she touched her waist and forgot to bring the money bag, she hesitated for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper, you wait a while." ”

She came to the open space in the center of the room, hugged her fists, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the little girl came out in a hurry, and forgot to bring the silver taels, I will dance a dance for everyone, and when you are happy, you will fund some silver taels to pay for the meal." ”

Everyone was already very curious about this exotic girl, and they all put down their chopsticks when they heard her say this.

I saw her head held high, her left hand crossed her waist, her right hand was raised in the shape of a cockscomb, and she stepped on the ground with her feet while spinning, and then, gently swinging her arms, flipping her wrists, constantly changing her pace, turning left for a while, turning right for a while, the jade arms were lightly relaxed, the skirt was swaying, and finally, it rotated quickly in one direction, like a beautiful flower fluttering in the air, abruptly stopped, stretched her arms, like a blooming peony.

Everyone applauded and applauded, and someone said: "This is the legendary Hu Xuan Dance, when I see it today, it is really wonderful." ”

There is a son who is even more fascinated. When she came to the son, he grabbed his wrist, took out two large pieces of silver and shook them in front of her, put them on the plate, stared at her, and said, "Little beauty, is it enough!" If it's not enough, go to my house and get it. ”

The girl said, "Enough, thank you Childe, please let Childe go." ”

There were five family members standing behind this son, and one of them said: "This is the son of Lord Xu, the prefect, and it is your blessing to fancy you." ”

Xu Gongzi said: "Little beauty, come home with me, I will protect you with fine clothes and food." ”

The girl said: "You are looking for the wrong person, the little girl just forgot to bring the money bag today, my family has gold and silver." ”

A family member said: "You little woman don't know what to do, my son-in-law is rich and powerful, and he must get what he wants." ”

Xu Gongzi said in a daze: "Little beauty, come here, let Gongzi and I kiss it." ”

After speaking, he pulled the girl into his arms, the girl's hand flipped and broke free, Xu Gongzi was stunned, stood up and wanted to hug her, she pushed hard, Xu Gongzi almost fell, Xu Gongzi shouted: "This little beauty has practiced twice, everyone will give me together." ”

The five family members surrounded the girl at once, and the girl was not afraid, and raised her fist to knock down two people, but there were not many people, and the two family members grabbed their arms.

Xu Gongzi hugged the girl from behind, and said with a lewd smile: "Little beauty, you can't run away." ”

Everyone was afraid of the power of this Xu Gongzi's family, and they dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

Yang Huaide couldn't get used to this kind of thing the most, and rushed over and shouted: "Let her go, don't force people if they don't want to, do you dare to do whatever you want if you are the son of the prefect?" ”

When the girl saw a handsome and burly young man come to the rescue, she was secretly happy in her heart, this young man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was masculine, which made people like it.

Xu Gongzi was surprised, glared, and shouted: "Where did you come from, you don't know how powerful this son is, don't talk nonsense, call me." ”

These six people were not Yang Huaide's opponents, and after a while, they were beaten and screamed.

Xu Gongzi shouted: "Stinky boy, you wait." "Crawled and fled.

The girl felt so happy in her heart and said, "My name is Ayiguli, thank you for helping me, what is your name?" ”

Yang Huaide said: "My name is Yang Huaide, you get out of here quickly, they may come back." ”

Ayiguli replied, "Yes. Glancing at Yang Huaide affectionately, he turned to leave.

Yang Huaide picked up the bun and hurried back to the inn, and Yang Huaixing and Liu Keshi had already gotten up.

Yang Huaide said: "Just now, the prefect's son was beaten by me for molesting the people's girl, and I don't want to cause trouble, we have to leave here immediately." ”

Liu Keshi said: "Huaide, you have been a hero again!" ”

Yang Huaide said: "You are joking with me again, hurry up!" The three of them packed up their bags and hurried away.

After walking for more than an hour, a small mountain bag appeared in front of it, and three people on the mountain bag were looking to the other side, pointing and pointing.

Liu Keshi said: "What are they looking at? Let's go up and have a look. ”

The three of them laughed and rushed to the mountain bag like a race, the three just looked at them and didn't say anything, a middle-aged man, two young people in their twenties, one of them carrying a bamboo basket with a small Buddha statue in it.

Yang Huaide and the three looked down, and there was a burst of surprise, it turned out that there was a military camp below, and it was estimated that there were more than 500 sergeants in practice, and Yang Huaide and the three couldn't help but jump in surprise.

Yang Huaide said: "We will soon put on our armor, ride on our horses, and charge to kill the enemy!" ”

Liu Keshi said: "My father said that he has more than 5,000 people! Much more than that! ”

Several people were watching with interest. Suddenly, more than a dozen Song soldiers rushed up from behind and surrounded them, and one of the leaders shouted: "Arrest these spies, see that they are not locals." ”

The middle-aged man stepped forward unhurriedly and said, "This military master, I misunderstood, we came back from worshipping Buddha on Wutai Mountain, passing through here to see the excitement." ”

He pointed at Yang Huaide and the three of them with his hand and said, "You see, they are all children in their teens, and they are very curious. ”

He pointed to the young man with the bamboo basket and said, "This is my nephew, he is mute." ”

The young man with the bamboo basket on his back opened his mouth and screamed stupidly "ahhhh ”

He took out a big bag from the package and said, "This is the big red dates in our hometown, you military masters taste them, they are crisp and sweet." ”

He distributed the red dates to these Song soldiers to eat, and then took out a small cloth bag from his waist and stuffed it into the leader's hand, saying, "The military master misunderstood, the military master misunderstood." ”

The leader pinched the small cloth bag and understood, and said, "It's a misunderstanding, you are not spies, don't watch here, leave immediately." ”

The middle-aged man replied, "Let's go right away." Yang Huaide and the three of them walked down the mountain bag with the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man said to Liu Keshi, "Where are you going?" ”

Liu Keshi saw that he had helped resolve the misunderstanding just now, so he lost his guard and said, "We are going to join the Western Army to fight the Xia Kingdom." ”

The middle-aged man was a little surprised and asked, "You just said that your father has more than 5,000 people, so your father must be a general?" ”

Liu Keshi said proudly: "My father is Liu Jiqian, the guard of Linzhou City. ”

The middle-aged man looked surprised and said, "We are the people of Linzhou, and General Liu's name is known to everyone, so let's just stop by the road." ”

Several people reported their names to each other, the middle-aged man was called Ye Limin, and the two next to him were his nephews, the mute one was called Ye Liniu, and the other was called Ye Lima.

In the evening, they came to the bottom of a small dirt hill with a row of abandoned caves at the foot of the mountain, where a Uighur caravan was unloading and they were staying in a cave on the side.

After a while, there was a cheerful sound of drums outside, and then a Uighur entered, bowed with his right hand out, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, my master has invited you to join us at the dinner." ”

Ye Limin said: "Thank you, master, we will go over immediately." ”

Ye Limin said to Yang Huaide and the others: "These Uighurs have always been hospitable, and everyone goes. ”

As they walked out of the cave, they saw a bonfire and blankets in the open space in front of them, and the Uighurs were sitting in a circle, some playing musical instruments and some dancing.

Several people sat down in an empty seat, and someone brought them fruits, cooked mutton and fine wine, and the host, a middle-aged man, with a beard and a white felt hat, raised his glass and said, "Dear guests, I am Alikun, and you are welcome to drink wine, eat delicious food, and toast with us!" ”

Everyone reported their names, and Ye Limin said: "These three little brothers are going to Linzhou to join the army, and the three of us will also return to Linzhou when we come back from worshipping Buddha on Wutai Mountain." ”

Alekun said, "I am also a believer in Buddhism, may the Buddha bless you." ”

After a while, a young girl with a veil and a silk scarf came up and sat next to Arikun, she looked at the guest, and then said a few words in Arikun's ear, and Arykun said to the crowd, "My niece Ayiguli, I want to dance for everyone." ”

The Uighurs immediately cheered, Ayiguli took out four strings of bells from her bosom and put them on her wrists and ankles, Alekun played the lute, Ayiguli danced to the music, the bells rang crisp and pleasant, the silk scarf in her hand fluttered in the air, like a beautiful rainbow around her, and she cast enthusiastic glances at Yang Huaide from time to time, and Yang Huaide was also intoxicated by her energetic dancing.

After a dance, everyone cheered again, Ayiguli took the dance steps to pour wine for each guest, she finally came to Yang Huaide, poured wine for Yang Huaide, and poured a glass herself, she gently removed the veil, Yang Huaide was stunned, what a beautiful face, white and ruddy, high nose and deep eyes, thick eyebrows and big eyes, long eyelashes curled upward, with affection.

Ayiguli raised her glass and said, "Huaide, I toast you." The two of them drank it all.

Ayiguli stretched out her right hand and said, "Let's dance together!" ”

Yang Huaide blushed and hesitated, and Yalikun said: "Young man, be brave, do you make the beautiful girl sad!" ”

When Yang Huaide heard Yalikun say this, he got up and took Ayiguli's hand and walked out, and at this time some of the Uighurs also came on the stage to dance, and Yang Huaide said, "I don't know how to dance at all." ”

Ayiguli said: "Our dancing men and women can dance, I will teach you, like me, pedal, turn." ”

Yang Huaide was completely infected by Ayiguli's enthusiasm, and the two jumped together.

After a while, the two sat on the side eating fruit, and Ayiguli peeled a grape and put it into Yang Huaide's mouth, asking, "Did those people hurt you?" ”

Yang Huaide replied: "I have practiced martial arts, and they beat me a few times, and I can resist it." ”

Ayiguli blinked her big eyes and asked, "Did you help me because you liked me?" ”

Yang Huaide blushed and replied, "I want to take care of others when I see others bullying people." ”

Ayiguli pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You panic, you just like me!" ”

Yelima next to him had already been fascinated by Ayiguli's beauty, and kept staring at her, and when he saw her and Yang Huaide together, he felt uncomfortable, drinking wine one after another.

He walked up to Ayiguli and Yang Huaide, stretched out his hand and said, "Ayiguli, let's dance together!" ”

Ayiguli was not happy when she saw him drunk, and said, "I still have something, you can jump by yourself!" After speaking, he pulled Yang Huaide and ran to Yalikun, and Yelima had to leave unhappy.

Ayiguli said to Alikun, "Uncle, he saved me, you have to reward him!" ”

Alekun asked, "What reward do you want, young man?" I have here treasures of gold and silver, silk and silk, you can choose as you like. ”

Yang Huaide replied: "I don't want anything, I see someone bullying Ayiguli, I want to take care of it." ”

Ayiguli's face was filled with a happy smile.
