Chapter 100: It's snowing
The climate is already in winter, and Xu Sleeve made two padded jackets, one large and one small, one for Baili Liang and one for Xu Xiang. www.biquge.info As he said last time, Xu Xiang has been living in Baili Liang's courtyard, and his attachment to Xu Sleeve seems to be decreasing day by day, but Xu Sleeve comes to see his brother from time to time, which gives Baili Liang more opportunities to see her.
"Little Scar, you like your sister so much, you might as well snatch her from You Xuan's hands!" At night, Xu Xiang snuggled on the pillow of Baili Liang and encouraged.
Baili Liang likes Xu Xiang very much now, this kid is smart and stubborn, not as squeamish and pretentious as other children.
"Nonsense, you don't like your hanging brother anymore?"
"I used to like him, but now I like you more, you are my apprentice, we are closer, this is called ...... Oh, it's called fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields! You're a little stupid, a little stupid, a little serious, unambitious, a woman's heart, dull and boring...... But you are good, sincere, with you, properly at ease. ”
Xu Xiang said that Baili Liang was amused by him, and he didn't know where he learned the words that popped up like popping beans.
Xun Lei came in with foot-washing water at this time, and the three of them couldn't wait to stretch their feet in, and Baili Liang's foot board that was stabbed by the thistle terrestris was not yet complete, so he only put one foot.
Xu Xiangren's feet are also small, he was held by Xun Lei and stood in the basin, naughtily stepping on the instep of Baili Liang for a while, and then stepping on Xun Lei's feet.
Xun Lei held Xu Xiang up with his feet, and Xu Xiang laughed more than once.
"Little Scar, it's your turn, let Master test how strong your feet are!" Xiao Xu Xiang's two little feet stepped on the instep of Baili Liang at the same time.
Baili Liang tried it, and the toes outside the basin were forced, and the feet in the basin really lifted Xu Xiang.
"It's fun, it's so fun, come again!"
"Xu Xiang, don't bully Little Scar, come down quickly!" Xu Sleeve walked in with a food box.
"It's the eldest lady, there's something delicious?" Xun Lei jumped out of the basin and ran over to take the food box.
"The helper and the city lord will talk at night, so I will make some more supper and send you some."
It is rock sugar lotus seed porridge, which is still hot, and it is sweet when you smell the fragrance for 100 miles.
Xu Sleeve put down the food and hurriedly walked out, Xu Xiang grimaced at her back, and Xu Sleeve stopped and turned around.
"Xu Xiang, don't be lazy, I'm going to check your homework when I have the time, little scar, I'll treat you as Xu Xiang's brother, you urge him, it's not good for children to waste their time when they are greedy for fun."
Baili Liangxin said that he still had to be urged by Xu Xiang, Xu Sleeve was too worried, but he still nodded.
"Get out, go with your husband, I don't want you to care!" Xu Xiang rolled her eyes at Xu Sleeve.
"You...... It's unreasonable! Leave it alone. Xu Sleeve was also angry, shook off and left.
Xu Xiang saw that her sister was gone, and she was wronged and went into the quilt without saying a word.
"Little Ancestor, don't you eat your lotus seed porridge? It's fragrant! Xun Lei had already hula a bowl and stared at Xu Xiang's swallowed saliva.
"Don't eat! I won't eat her food, I'll eat you. ”
"Then I'll eat it!" Xun Lei happily picked up the bowl.
Baili Liang has passed more than half a month of this kind of carefree days, his injuries are basically healed, every day at dawn he and Xu Xiang went to Long Fei's yard to stay, until it was dark, and Long Fei's seat also had one more, that is, Zhu Ge, Zhu Ge flattered Long Fei in every way, and the people who served Long Fei were also fatter, Long Fei was worthy of learning rich five cars, and the things he said were one ring after another, Baili Liang, Xu Xiang, Shen Du and Zhu Ge benefited a lot, and often even forgot to eat.
Xun Lei and Li Qi Niu Xin ran to the city wall all day long, and the people of the Hong Gang and the soldiers guarding the city wall privately opened a bet, betting on when Feng Zixu would attack, day or night, and what hour, which made them have a lot of fun.
Baili Liang and Xu Xiang return to the courtyard every night, and they can always hear some new things, such as Feng Zixu's sudden appearance outside the city wall in broad daylight, they ran away with arrows on the city wall, and they didn't know what to make trouble, so repeatedly, not like a sneak attack, but like a training army, Feng Zixu also got a few crossbow machines, and shot at the city wall while it was dark, because the range was not far enough, the arrow fell down before it touched the city wall, and Lu Lu saw Feng Zixu on the city wall under the moonlight Feng Zixu was depressed like a dog.
Although Feng Zixu is like a funny clown, Lu Lu is still jealous of Feng Zixu, he guards the city wall every day without undressing and does not dare to slack off, and gets up to inspect whenever there is a disturbance.
The city should reserve grain and grass for the winter, and the countrymen also need to go into the city to sell goods, the city gate was opened several times, and at first there were many people who went into the city to sell some surplus grain at home, but gradually there were fewer and fewer people who came, and You Xuan sent people to find the reason, but it was Feng Zixu's ghost.
Feng Zixu sent people to intercept those who entered the city to sell goods halfway, he didn't rob them, but bought them at double the price, such a good thing spread ten or ten hundreds, and finally everyone sent the goods directly to his military camp, he came and did not refuse, how could anyone enter Tuzhou City to sell things. Feng Zixu has been attacking and plundering cities for so many years, and the most important thing he lacks is silver.
"It's too much!" You was in suspense.
"City lord, don't worry, Feng Zixu can't go crazy for too long." Xu Haidao seems to be confident about something.
"Have all the people outside Uncle City been arranged?" You asked in suspense, and he followed Xu Sleeve to call Uncle Xu Hai.
"It's all right, just wait for Jiangzhou to count the good days."
"Hmm...... The sooner this happens, the better, our grain and grass can be consumed more than half, and I still dream of doing a good job with Xizhou in the spring of next year. ”
"How can it be a dream, Xizhou played a trick on Jiangzhou and Panzhou this time, and the people's hearts are lost, and he will be finished sooner or later."
Xu Sleeve, who listened to the two of them, frowned and said nothing.
"Sleeve, what do you think?" You Xuan shook her hand lightly.
"Something is wrong, Feng Zixu is not a fool, now all states and roads are not winning quickly, he plays slowly like this, even if he has mountains of gold and silver, the grain and grass will be eaten one day."
"Although he is not a fool, he is a real madman, his thinking is different from ordinary people, sleeve, you are too worried."
"I hope I'm thinking ......too much," Xu Sleeve pondered for a while, "I heard that Feng Zixu got a few crossbow machines, hanging, can you find out where he got those crossbow machines?" ”
"I captured a few of Feng Zixu's soldiers, and according to them, they bought them from a crossbow dealer. It shouldn't be feared, the range and lethality are far inferior to Xiaobai's crossbow machines, and Feng Zixu only bought four. ”
"Ballista trader?" Xu Hai smiled, "This is a good business." ”
While talking in the house, the courtyard door creaked open, and Baili Liang accompanied Xu Xiang to the study to pick up the book.
Xu Sleeve looked out the window, his frowning brows spread, and a smile appeared on his pretty face.
"It's snowing!"
"Well, it didn't take long to get down, and it was so cold!" Walk into the house in the hundred miles of cool road.
"Xiaobai is from the south, right, but are you still used to the winter in the north?" Xu Haidao.
"I've been in the north for a few years, and I'm used to it." Baili Liang said, he glanced at Xu Sleeve, who was looking at the snow seriously, and the deer in his heart bumped around, only thinking that she was too beautiful! With just one glance, he didn't dare to look at her again, for fear of being discovered by her, and he was also afraid of being discovered by Youhang.
Xu Sleeve's hand has been held by Youhang, and she felt that his hand was a little cold, so she went to hug him a blanket and gently covered his lap.
Xu Hai looked at the young couple, very envious, and sighed.
"How good it would be if Ah Cheng treated me like this! Sleeve, it's cold, go find your father to get some charcoal fire to roast, I'll go back first. ”
Baili Liang waited for Xu Xiang to finish picking up the book, he stood awkwardly in front of this pair of loving people, walked or sat down, and was raising his legs to go to the study, but was stopped by Xu Sleeve.
"Scar, could you please fetch me some charcoal?"
"Oh, little thing, I'll go now." Baili Liang smiled at her.
"Well, he's afraid of the cold, you take more." Xu Sleeve also smiled at him. Xu Sleeve prefers white dresses, she is like an ice beauty when she is not smiling, and if she smiles, she is like a pear blossom of ten thousand trees, pure and fragrant.
Baili Liang walked out of the yard, the mood was inexplicably good, the small snowflakes were still phantom white pear blossoms at this time, crystal romantic, a good snow!
Xu Lu learned that it was his daughter and son-in-law who asked for charcoal, so he asked people to send several baskets, and by the way, he also sent a few baskets to Baililiang's yard.
"Xiang'er thanks to the six hall masters for taking care of me, I'm ashamed to be a father." Xu Lu said.
"Boss, there are not many baskets of charcoal, this is also necessary for that, we don't have anything to make fire!" Behind him, Xu Lu's new wife said very unhappily.
"What, that's my daughter, my son!" Xu Lu was annoyed and pushed the woman.
"Ah, you push me, you have no conscience, I'm not afraid that your hot face will stick to your cold ass! Didn't I say, your son-in-law can afford us, have you forgotten that the ancestor of his family pointed his nose and scolded us as bandits and robbers? Hmph, I see that as soon as this battle is over, maybe we will be driven out of the city, your good daughter turned her elbow out, she has never called me a mother, I have been married in private for so long, and I don't see her little couple coming to our door, the sixth hall master, you talk about it, what kind of relatives is this? ”
Baili Liang was not easy to talk to, so he exchanged a few words of greeting and left quickly.
The charcoal was delivered, Xu Xiang was still rubbing in the study, Baili Liang secretly asked him if he was reluctant to leave, Xu Xiang scolded him, "You are reluctant to go, I will create a chance for you, stupid!" ”
Of course, Baili Liang didn't believe Xu Xiang's words, Xu Xiang was waiting for Xu Sleeve to open his mouth and keep him down.
"Xu Xiang, take the book and go back quickly." Xu Sleeve somehow came up with such a sentence.
Xu Xiang stomped his feet, knocked down the bookcase, and shouted angrily to Xu Sleeve, "I'm not coming, I'm not coming again, you just accompany your hanging, you don't hurt me at all!" ”
Xu Xiang's tears and snot fell together, he didn't cry, and ran out alone, because the person was small, he didn't pay attention when he crossed the threshold, he tripped and fell hard, and his nose was bleeding, he quickly got up and continued to run away.
"Brother-in-law is jealous! Sleeve, you go and coax him. You said with a smile.
"Don't coax, let the child coaxed by a woman can't grow up. Little Scar, don't coax him, you can't get used to it. Xu Sleeve sneered.
"Then I'll go back." Baili Liang sneered and chased after Xu Xiang.
