CHAPTER 42 OLD FRIENDS
Everyone in the kitchen was busy, Jingjing was cooking and cooking, Huang Yue followed to help, Zhuge Jun squatted in front of the stove and was responsible for lighting the fire, Ge Liang wanted to help and had nowhere to start, so he could only sit on the side and teach Xiaobao to read.

In this ancient era, the meal time is not the same as that in the 21st century, and breakfast is usually eaten at the beginning of the morning, that is, after 9 o'clock in the morning; Lunch needs to wait until Shen Shi, which is about 3 to 5 o'clock in the afternoon; Dinner is generally not eaten, because the lighting at night needs to light the oil lamp, and at this time the burning is basically edible oil, the lighting effect is not good and very expensive, only the family with a slightly better family background makes something simple to eat at night, which is equivalent to supper.
Just because breakfast is eaten late, people generally start to eat after a little busy in the field or in the mountains for a while, so they eat more, and it is definitely a regular meal. Huang Yue and Jingjing made a big pot of rice, because now in addition to these people in the original family, there are also a few soldiers guarding the door and going out with them, and the food supply has more than doubled.
Ge Liang said to Huang Yue: "Let's have another cook, you still have a lot of things to do, so Jingjing is much easier, my brother doesn't have to burn the fire, you can leave more time to study." ”
Huang Yue was busy chopping vegetables: "Let's talk about it after a while." Speaking from her heart, she really regards these few as relatives, and wants to be closer to them first.
Ge Liang said: "Don't wait, you still have a lot of things to do, for example, we corresponded just now, I think we should add a little more words, at least we haven't added the place name yet." ”
"Alright then, you can do it." Huang Yue is really busy, and he has a lot of things to study and worry about, so he will have a cook and let Zhuge Jun and Jingjing do some housework.
"Haha! I said why do you always want to avoid me, it turns out that the family makes good food, for fear that I will come to eat and drink. A man laughed and burst into the kitchen from outside.
Ge Liang looked up and saw that it was Xu Shu, and he hurriedly got up to greet him: "You broke into my house without saying hello, I haven't gone out to buy wine yet." ”
The house was full of old acquaintances, Xu Shu greeted everyone and said to Ge Liang: "Since you came to General Liu Zuo, I always feel that you have something to hide from me, and you always want to avoid me." I'm going to ask you where I offended you. Our old friend for so many years, if you don't hurry up and buy some wine to compensate me, I won't agree. ”
Ge Liang asked Huang Yue to get some money to let a personal soldier go out to get some wine, and said to Xu Shu: "Why do I think it's all because you feel sorry for me, and you always want to avoid me?" As soon as I went to discuss this morning, when General Zuo said that he was going to Xiangyang and let us disperse first, I wanted to ask you to come to my house for a drink, who knows how you ran so fast. ”
"Kong Ming, Kong Ming, I think you have changed, you have become a little strong, obviously you are running fast, but I am in a hurry! Halfway through, I thought that the lord was going to Xiangyang today, and everyone was fine, so I decided to come to you for a meal and solve my worries. Xu Shu pointed at Ge Liang and shook his head, leaned over again and asked softly, "Didn't you say that Mrs. was happy last time?" How is it now, why is she still allowed to do housework with her maidservant? ”
What do you mean that the lady I said is happy, obviously you want to be crooked, okay? Ge Liang looked at Huang Yue, who was busy, and could only put on a sad and disappointed face and said to Xu Shu: "It's because I thought wrong, it's not like that, I was really sick at the time." ”
Alas, Bai was happy, and Xu Shu also felt deeply sorry for Zhuge Liang, patted Ge Liang on the shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, keep working hard." ”
Try to sweat, I still sleep on the deck chair every night! Ge Liang thinks this is too unfair, how can I say that this building was assigned to me by Liu Bei, why can I only sleep on a recliner? No, I have to sleep in bed tonight, anyway, there are a lot of quilts, and one person can cover a bed.
"What are you talking about? The dishes are almost there, and since the guests are here, let's prepare the meal early. Huang Yue washed his hands and came over to greet him while shaking the water.
Ge Liang hurriedly said to Xu Shu: "Let's go, let's get ready for dinner, let's have a good drink, the wine should be bought back soon." ”
Xu Shu told Huang Yue with great concern: "Sister, pay attention to take care of your body, don't get tired!" ”
It's not an old friend, he cares so much about his brother's family, which makes Ge Liang feel so moved, and now it's really powerless to pretend to be Zhuge Liang, thank God for having an old friend to help! Ge Liang decided that he must be intimate with Xu Shu as soon as possible from now on, and kept raising his glass to him at the wine table: "Come on, Brother Yuanzhi, I wish all of us great ambitions and all our wishes come true." ”
Xu Shu raised his glass and drank it all: "I'm relieved when you say this, I was really worried that you would be angry with me before." ”
Ge Liang raised another cup: "My cup is considered to be an apology to Brother Yuanzhi, this period of time, my family Yueying and I have been researching a new way of communication, which is more laborious, and may have inadvertently snubbed you, please don't be surprised." ”
Xu Shu was full of curiosity, and asked repeatedly: "What new discoveries have you made as a couple, come and let me hear about it." ”
Ge Liang gave Xu Shu a rough idea of the Morse code they had compiled themselves, and the most important thing was to emphasize that after being familiar with this kind of code, it can be transmitted in many ways, and it can be transmitted in many difficult situations.
Xu Shu was a top smart person, and he quickly realized that this method had many advantages: "Indeed, as you said, you can rely on drumming or fire to keep the two armies in contact at night, and during the day, when the distance is far or the sound is noisy, you can convey instructions through flags or bronze mirrors, etc., and as long as you keep it secret and don't let the enemy know the meaning of the code, you can completely convey it in front of the enemy, which is really wonderful!" ”
"This is indeed a good thing, so when Yueying said this idea, I was full of admiration." Ge Liang wanted to push Huang Yue out, he really didn't understand a lot of things, and some things had to rely on Huang Yue to complete, but ancient women had no status, and they had to rely on the respect of many people to obtain a certain amount of power and various human and material support.
Of course, Xu Shu knew that Huang Yueying was a rare smart woman in the world, and immediately praised Huang Yue: "Mr. Huang can cultivate such a smart daughter, but I don't know how much effort he has paid, of course, it all depends on his sister's talent. I think that Kong Ming didn't care about the world's eyes, didn't judge people by their appearance, and formed a good relationship with Yueying's sister for the next generation, which is indeed a unique vision. After saying that, he regretted that he had leaked his mouth, isn't this a relative joke that Huang Yueying is ugly?
Ge Liang looked at Huang Yue, he was indeed not pretty, but he didn't think it was too ugly, wasn't his skin a little darker and his hair a little yellower? In the past, those classmates tried their best to dye their hair yellow? Wait, why did you always quarrel with Huang Yue before, but now the more you look at it, the more pleasing it is? Is it because I really admire her for studying hard and getting good grades? Isn't Zhuge Liang just taking a fancy to Huang Yueying's ability to read, is there really this reason for this crossing?
