Chapter 015: Burning the Wood House

Gao Jun rode a horse, holding the reins with one hand and Liu Yuru with the other, and couldn't bear to wake her up, so he rode a little slowly, but the horse was very stable. Liu Yuru did fall asleep before, but she woke up when Gao Jun got on the horse, just closed her eyes and didn't move, she felt Gao Jun's cautious appearance along the way, and the long-lost sense of security in her heart seemed to fly back again, and the tiredness of the day hit again, and this time she slept more steadily.

Feng Zheng took Yang Yatou, and the two of them followed Gao Jun from a distance, Yang Yatou was an innocent girl, asking this and that along the way, she had already asked Feng Zheng's bottom details, and took the initiative to introduce her name "Yang Queer" to Feng Zheng. Feng Zheng asked your father why he came up with such a name, and Yang Yatou said, you are stupid, I was born with freckles on my face when I was a child, and I always twitter when I grew up. Suddenly, she remembered Wang Cailian and Wang Steward, and said to Feng Zheng, "Hey, can I be your wife?" Feng Zheng blushed behind her, and didn't know what to say for a while. Yang Que'er thought he was unhappy, he couldn't hold it on his face, and jumped down as soon as he struggled, Feng Zheng hugged her, "You don't want to die!" ”

"You're not happy, why should I let you take advantage?"

Feng Zheng said, "Then you can't jump without squeaking, I just thought, you have to have the life of your parents, what is it for us to decide for life." ”

"You said it earlier, so I almost found a short-term meeting."

"Just like you, you have arranged your own in-laws, will you find a short-term meeting? I don't believe it. ”

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you again!" Yang Que'er said and jumped again. Feng Zheng hugged this woman more tightly this time, this Feng Zheng gradually understands personnel as he grows older, but his family is poor, and he is just a small boss in the ranch. Feng Zheng attributed everything today to Master Gao, and felt that as long as he followed Master Gao, the future behind him would definitely become brighter and brighter. Yang Que'er thought, this time I see that your Wang Steward dares to bully me again!

Gao Jun took the Liu family and came directly to the newly rented independent courtyard, and he didn't know what Steward Luo and Chen Jiu's daughter-in-law had bought, and what had become of the house. When I got to the door, the yard was brightly lit, and when I knocked on the door, an old woman in her fifties came and opened the door, Gao Jun knew who she was, and took Liu off the horse and asked, "Mother-in-law, where is Rhode's knife?" ”

The old woman replied, "Childe, he said that he went to the village to drink with a man named Luo Quan. Today it was the two of them, who brought two people named Chen Ba and Chen Jiu's daughter-in-law, and after they took me over, the house in the county was also returned, and after they came back, they cleaned up for a long time, and the two daughters-in-law took the cloth back, and the two of them went to drink. ”

The light came through the kitchen, and it was dark in the main room, and the old woman went into the house and lit the lamp. Gao Jun hugged Liu in, and saw that the furnishings in the house were really new. The biggest change in the living room is the addition of a dresser, where bright bronze mirrors, rouge gouache boxes, lip sticks, hairpins, horn combs, and jewelry boxes are placed.

Entering the house, the mahogany bed was newly replaced with a full set of luggage and bedding, a brand new tent, he wanted to put the sleeping Liu Shi on the bed, only to find that her clothes were covered with mud, the old woman said, "Childe, I have already boiled the bath water...... The meal was also ready. ”

Hearing this, he wanted to send Liu Shi to the bathroom, but he thought that he couldn't do it at all, so he came out and put Liu Shi on the bench in the living room. She was still wrapped in the green robe, and Gao Jun said to her mother-in-law, "Don't wake her up, wait for her to wake up, wait for her to take a bath, eat, and rest early." He said to look at the Liu family and then look at the mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law said, "I asked Lot Knife to build a bed in the kitchen, which is quite spacious, but I don't know where you sleep, son?" ”

"You don't care about me, I still have to go out and have something." After thinking about it, he said, "When she wakes up and wants to ask, you just say that I will go to the village to tear down the firewood house and bring back the charcoal fire, and she will understand." ”

With that, Gao Jun walked out of the courtyard, and his mother-in-law bolted the door from the inside, and he walked straight to the end of the village.

The charcoal fire hissed far away, it was kept at home all day, it was hungry and thirsty, Gao Jun opened the firewood door, saw the furnishings in the shack a kind of cordial feeling, the dagger he pinned to his waist, first got some water for the charcoal fire, watched it drink, and fed it forage, and then took it out, and then rolled the luggage and bedding in the shack together, and put it on the back of the charcoal fire.

This firewood house stood alone on the edge of the village, far away from the front and back houses, it had completed its historical destiny, Gao Jun lit a fire, ignited a handful of soft grass, a warm flame rose in his hand, he raised his hand, the flame flew into the firewood house.

Gao Jun burned the firewood house and did not go back to the small courtyard in the west of the village, remembering that the mother-in-law said that Luo Dedao and Luo Quan were eating in the tavern in the north of the village, so he wanted to ask the two of them for the details of the purchase in Liuzhong County, so he walked towards the tavern where he had eaten last time. Seeing that Er Luo was really still there, a plate of peanuts, a plate of stuffed tofu, and a pot of stewed cabbage on the table, the two of them drank hot, Gao Jun stepped into the tavern in his regular clothes, and Luo Dao sat facing the door and saw it at a glance, and got up from his seat in a hurry.

Gao Jun was quite satisfied with the things he had purchased, walked over and pressed Luo Dedao's shoulder to let him sit down, and said, "Why are these few dishes, I haven't eaten them yet," Luo Quan hurriedly beckoned the shopkeeper to serve the dishes again, and after a while, he cut two catties of cooked beef and a bowl of haggis soup, and ordered another jar of wine.

Since Luo Dao was kicked by Gao Jun last time, his attitude towards Gao Jun has become more fearful in respect, and when Gao Jun sat down, he hurriedly asked, "Young Master, I don't know if you are still satisfied with what we have done this time?" ”

"If I'm not satisfied, I won't come over to drink with the two of you," Gao Jun asked, "Are the two daughters-in-law of the Chen family done thanking?" ”

Luo Quan hurriedly replied, "My lord, according to your instructions, each person has been given half a piece of cloth, and the two of them are happy." As he was talking, he saw Feng Zheng also walk in, Gao Jun knew that he must have gone to see Yang Yatou just now, and he didn't point out the matter, the three of them added another dish, and saw that the wine was not enough, so they called for wine again.

Luo Quan continued, "Steward Luo and I just moved the goods and drove the car, what to buy, we all listened to the ideas of the two daughters-in-law of the Chen family, and we really lost to them, otherwise we would not have thought of buying those rouge gouache and other things, we also bought a few pieces of jewelry, gold and jade, but the silver in Steward Luo's pocket was flowing out in an uproar." ”

Lot Dao hurriedly said, "That's my son-in-law's money, he doesn't feel distressed, and I will spend it even more." ”

The three of them were talking, when they heard another horse coming from outside the door of the tavern, and after waiting for a while, a person walked in with his head down, Feng Zheng looked at it and was a little strange, "Lord Liu, how could it be you, aren't you going home?" Gao Jun saw that it was Liu Wu, and he was also a little puzzled in his heart.

Liu Wu suddenly saw the three people seated, and it seemed that he didn't expect it, he didn't know how to answer the three of them for a while, he just sat down with his head down, and several people had to add wine and food, Gao Jun looked at Liu Wu as if he had something on his mind, but looking at the people seated, it must be inconvenient to mention it at the wine table, so he didn't ask, just took out the things in the ranch and said.

Liu Wu didn't answer, just poured wine vigorously. For a moment, the atmosphere at the table was a little deserted. Gao Jun asked Feng Zheng, "Where did you send Yang Yatou?" ”

Feng Zheng said a little shyly, "I sent her to her residence in the village, she lived with two other people, both of whom were female shepherds in the pasture. As soon as Luo Dao heard the words of the female shepherd, and then looked at Feng Zheng's expression, he immediately understood, and chased Feng Zheng to ask what was going on, Feng Zheng was forced to ask, so he said, "My lord, she said that she wanted to be my wife, but my parents are not here, I, I can't make up my mind." ”

Lot Dao hurriedly said, "What's so difficult about this, isn't my son Gao here, he is your supervisor, why don't you beg my son-in-law, it's okay to be the master with you." ”

Gao Jun heard Steward Luo say this, and said in his heart that this Steward Luo is a little clueless on weekdays, but sometimes he is quite clever, and Steward Luo has done two things in the last two things to his satisfaction, so he looked at him a little higher than usual in his heart, and said, "The housekeeper is right, if Brother Feng can afford me, I will be the master." ”

Feng Zheng is worried about this matter, firstly, he is indeed quite satisfied with that Yang Queer, one of the few dozen female shepherds in the ranch, except for a few who have been married, there are no more than a few left, and among the remaining few people, there is no doubt that Yang Yatou is still clear eyebrows, and her age is comparable to herself. Second, he knew that there were many young boys like himself around him, and if he didn't take it in front, someone would definitely take it. Thinking of this, Feng Zheng hurriedly said, "It's all up to the tall man to decide." ”

Looking at Liu Wu again, the three people here were talking enthusiastically, but they still didn't insert a word, the wine drank more violently, cup by glass, and his face was even paler, Gao Jun said, "It's not early, everyone is scattered, Feng Zheng, if you don't understand the things you just said, just tell my housekeeper and let him and Luo Quan handle it." ”

He asked Rodsword, "Butler, where do you live now, I can't even know where my butler lives?" ”

Luo Quan hurriedly said, "Steward Luo has rented the house next to your newly rented small courtyard."

Steward Luo replied a little uncertainly, "Childe, I think that Childe has a new place to live, and there are female dependents, and it is not good for rough people like us to be in it, but I am far away and I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to come here in case the lady has any orders, so I will make my own opinion...... However, this makes you break the bank again. ”

Gao Jun said, "Yes, I approve of the housekeeper's arrangement, no, Luo Quan, you can also live there, if the residence is spacious, Feng Zheng doesn't mind, you also come, and you usually have a care." After saying that, a few people dispersed, Gao Jun saw that Liu Wu was already a little drunk, and he couldn't stand steadily, so he asked Feng Zheng to help him up, helped him to the outside of the tavern, reluctantly helped him to get on the horse, and walked towards the newly rented house of Lot Dao together. Luo Quan led the way in front, pointed to a house in the small courtyard and said, "Look, this room next to the tall man's house is, go in and have a look." Everyone went in and saw that it was a three-room room, without any decent furniture, but it was spacious and clean, Feng Zheng immediately decided to move over, so he and Luo Quan went to divide their own beds. Gao Jun helped Liu Wu to the bed and lay down, looked at him groggily, and said in his heart that he didn't go home after coming out of Jiaohe County? Why did you come back so late? There must be a reason for it, and now I can't ask, thinking that I don't know what is going on in the next courtyard, Liu Yuru didn't sleep, so she said to the other three, leave me a place to sleep here, and I'll go back when I go.

The courtyard door was bolted inside, Gao Jun looked around to see if there was anyone, found a dark place and flew in, the main room was dark, but the kitchen was still on, quietly walked into the kitchen, and saw that the mother-in-law was about to lie down, the kitchen was really not narrow, there was firewood piled up in the corner, and the mother-in-law's wooden bed was placed against the wall on the other side, she saw Jun come in, and said, "Why did the son come to the kitchen, Mrs. asked me to boil the bath water for you." ”

"Madame slept?"

"Sleep, she'll leave the door for you...... Strange thing, the gate of the courtyard, but the lady said that there is no need to keep it, I thought to myself, how can you come in without keeping the gate? But the lady said, don't worry about me, let me sleep at ease, I don't worry, wait until now...... Hey? Childe, how did you get in? ”

Gao Jun thought that he had been running around all day, and he really needed to take a bath to relieve his fatigue, so he said to his mother-in-law, "Put the water on it, and then you will sleep with you" After speaking, he walked to the main house, and pushed the door, and sure enough, there was no bolt inside. He lit a lamp, and there was no change in the hall, and his dark green official robe seemed to have just been washed, and it was on the back of the bench, and there was a puddle of water dripping from the ground.

The door to the bedroom was only hidden, he quietly pushed it open, the door only made a slight "squeak", Gao Jun tiptoed in, through the hazy moonlight through the window, saw the wide mahogany bed, Liu Shi was sleeping quietly, the hair that was usually pulled up was now spread out, and there was a slight sound. It's not like a firewood house leaking around, the house is very warm, Liu Yu's arm like a lotus root stick is exposed, Gao Jun walked over lightly, and helped her cover the quilt.

He crept into the bathroom, lit the lamp, and heard a scoop of water being added to the kitchen, sometimes hot, sometimes cold, and the barrel gradually filled.

He undressed, stepped into the bathtub, and half-lay inside. The temperature of the hot water is just right, and the amount of water is just enough to soak through his chest, he enjoys all this comfortably, and he says that he has finally arranged a life for Liu Yuru, and he must do a good job in the ranch in the future, after all, everything here is based on his own foothold in the ranch, thinking about it, fatigue suddenly came up, and he fell asleep in the bucket.
