Chapter Fifty-Six: Overnight Stay by the River
"Second brother, those powerful guys just now are all servants of your family, right?" Wang Meng glared at the copper bell and asked Long Xingrong.
"Of course. How is it, the second brother is amazing, right? Long Xingrong was a little complacent, and now he finally had something to envy the third brother.
"Oh, why don't you wait until we're all done. If it weren't for me and my eldest brother, wouldn't you be cleaned up by those people, second brother? In my opinion, your family servants are just like the second brother. ”
"How?" Long Xingrong asked curiously.
"It's all like goods, and no one can count on it at a critical moment." Wang Meng replied word by word.
Niu Tianci in front almost didn't laugh, sometimes this Wang Meng was quite angry when he spoke. You can see Long Xingrong's anxious white face arguing with Wang Meng, you know that he was hurt by this sentence.
The two argued all the way, and they didn't seem lonely. The four of them galloped on horseback, and after running for about sixty or seventy miles, a city could be faintly seen in front of them. But at this point, it is estimated that the door has been closed and locked, so don't think about it when you enter the city, let's find a place to camp.
I heard the sound of rushing water coming from behind the trees next to the official road. After the four of them walked around the woods, a large river appeared in front of them. Pick up a river beach that is slightly higher than the rest of the place, first light a bonfire to bake the ground, and then let everyone start to set up tents.
The three tents were all made of fine cotton. The surface of the cotton cloth is brushed with tung oil, which is both moisture and rainproof. Each tent has a thin iron rod as a skeleton, and the structure of the joints is also delicate, which is easy to install and disassemble. This is made by the military industry of Woniu Town, and it has become the standard equipment for the soldiers of Cangshan Prefecture, that is, the original Woniu Town regiment.
As soon as Wang Meng learned from these kings, a tent would be set up in a short time. He looked at Peach Blossom, who had been working clumsily for a long time without seeing results, and then looked at Long Xingrong, who was commanding with his hands on the side. I couldn't help but shake my head, walked over, took the tent, and set it up.
"Second brother, you can't do this. Speaking of manly husbands, how can they rely on women for everything? Women are used to hurt. Especially like Sister Peach Blossom, you can't let her do everything. In the future, if I become close to Tian Cui, I will not let Tian Cui do anything, just let her follow me to enjoy happiness, hehe. ”
"I said, third brother, don't you keep hitting me. Brother is inferior to you in this regard. But my brother may not be inferior to you in other aspects? You need to know **************, how do you know that I am not as good as you? Besides, Peach Blossom has followed me since he was a child, and it is his duty to take care of me. ”
"You rich kids, what you say is all crooked. Do you still remember what Aunt Lu said about the three rounds of wontons? Think about it. Well, it's done. Second brother, you can go in and try it. ”
Long Xingrong got into the tent and rolled over. This was the first time he had stayed in the wilderness outside the palace, and he probably couldn't sleep well this night.
"Brother Mengzi, thank you for speaking for me. But taking care of my son-in-law is indeed Peach Blossom's duty. My son-in-law is better to peach blossoms than to others. It's just that the son's family is a rich and noble family, and the son is an only child, so it is inevitable to be pampered. Peach Blossom said to Wang Meng with a smile.
"Hey, it's all my brother who said that, and I don't bother to pay attention to someone else. Peach Blossom, I'm an orphan, and if my master hadn't taken me in, I'd have died long ago. I just think so. Since it is not easy for everyone to live, we should be humble to each other. If you have a lot of strength, let you have a small force. Well, it's just about humility to each other anyway. They are all raised by their fathers and mothers, why are some of them masters and some of them being slaves? In the future, I will remove all my servants from slavery, and let them help me with peace of mind. I don't hit them or scold them, well, two butt kicks at most. When the time comes, if my second brother treats you badly. Come up to my house, and I'll let your sister-in-law take good care of you." Well, that's all. ”
After Wang Meng finished speaking, he went to find Niu Tianci who fed the horses, completely unaware that his words had brought tears to the tears of the peach blossoms. I haven't seen what kind of tragedy Peach Blossom entered the palace at the age of six, if it weren't for the fact that she was born a martial arts wizard. was favored by Gao Ping as a disciple, whether he can live until now is still a matter of words.
In all fairness, Gao Ping also takes good care of Peach Blossom, but discipline is more than love. In the palace, it is more difficult to get genuine care than to ascend to heaven. Although Wang Meng's words today have some unintentional elements, they are extremely warm and caring in Peach Blossom's heart. At this moment, Peach Blossom has a little bit of dependence on Wang Meng.
"Big brother, do you have anything to eat? The younger brother is hungry again. Hey. Wang scratched his bald head and asked Niu Tianci embarrassedly.
"Yes, you are full. Is a leg of lamb enough? ”
"Ten more meat-filled dough pies will be about the same." Wang Meng stretched out his big hand and gestured.
"Okay, you go wash first. The smell of blood in your body is too pungent, take this dress and towel and wash it in the river, there are pancreas in the towel. Remember to wash it clean, and don't let you eat if you don't wash it. ”
"Okay, let's take a shower." At this time, Wang Meng did not look like the god-killing one just now, and he was a little bit of the little brother next door.
Feed the horses, build a bonfire, and set up a rack. Skewer the four lamb legs on the rack and roll over the sauce without stopping. After a while, the aroma of kung fu spread, causing Long Xingrong to run over with drool. Long Xingrong made rapid progress, and he also knew that he had to help his eldest brother brush the sauce.
Peach Blossom is now accustomed to the miracle of Niu Tianci conjuring things out of thin air, picked up the spatula on the side, and began to heat the bread and cook the broth. When Tianci saw it, he hurriedly handed him the condiment bag and told him what condiments he needed. Peach Blossom is very smart and can be taught, much stronger than Long Xingrong.
"Peach blossoms, boil more hot water in a while. You and Rongxing both washed and changed their clothes. It's sweat and blood, it's all rancid, go ahead. Rongxing, you go too, I'll call you when the meal is ready. ”
"Big brother, hard work, big brother. Big brother, one day the little brother will not let the big brother work so hard, in the future, the big brother can do whatever you want, the little brother has no words. Long Xingrong looked at Niu Tianci firmly and said.
Long Xingrong felt the kind of love between brothers in Niu Tianci, which he had never received. This feeling made him obsessed, and this kind of heartfelt care had never been felt from a second person except for Emperor Su Zheng. He and Niu Tianci met Pingshui and experienced many things together. It can be said that they are fighting side by side, life and death, and this feeling is sincere and deep. Therefore, at this moment, Long Xingrong forgot his identity and said something like that.
Tianci straightened up and looked at Long Xingrong with a smile and said, "Big brother doesn't want anything from you." I only hope that when you encounter difficult things in the future, the first thing that comes to mind is that you still have me, my big brother, and my brother. Rongxing, you are not alone. ”
Long Xingrong nodded vigorously, reached out to hug Niu Tianci's shoulders and hugged him hard, then turned around and walked towards the tent. Niu Tianci looked at Long Xingrong's back and sighed in his heart, the sentence that people are good at the beginning is not false at all. Look at how good Long Xingrong is now, it seems that we must influence him as soon as possible, guide him in the right direction, and make Long Xingrong's ambitions and ideals the same as himself.
Peach Blossom's movements are very fast, and such a moment of kung fu should make Long Xingrong new inside and out. Niu Tianci had already laid out a blanket on the ground and called Long Xingrong to come over for dinner. As soon as Peach Blossom saw that Wang Meng was not there, she volunteered to find him. Niu Tianci didn't care, and sat on the blanket with Long Xingrong and waited for them to come back. This is a small tacit understanding between the four of them, and only when everyone is here will they start eating.
Peach Blossom came to the river, looked around, and determined her goal. It's easy to find Wang Meng, just follow his loud voice.
"My family lives at the foot of the wild goose mountain, my house has high walls and big tiles. There are thousands of acres of fertile land, and there are many cows and sheep. What ~~~~~~ eat tomorrow when you eat sheep. ”
Peach Blossom followed the sound to take a look, and immediately squatted on the ground with a smile. I saw that in the big moon field, Wang Meng was squatting by the river with his bare butt and washing clothes. The big bald head was like a small moon in the moonlight. Peach Blossom began to be naughty again, he quietly approached Wang Meng, and suddenly patted Wang Meng on the shoulder.
"Brother Mengzi~~~~~~, let's go eat when the meal is ready."
Ah~~~, poof. Wang Meng jumped into the river at once, and only a big bald head remained on the surface of the river.
"Girl, why don't you walk without a sound? Now it's all seen by you, why should I tell your sister-in-law ~~~~~. Wang Meng was wailing.
Peach Blossom smiled and turned her head and ran. Wang Meng squatted in the water for a long time before he carefully climbed up and dressed haphazardly. The clothes he had washed had already been washed away by the water. Wang Meng returned to the camp with shame and anger, sat on the blanket and bowed his head silently, without even looking at the roasted leg of mutton. What's going on? Tianci and Long Xingrong looked at each other and shook their heads, and then looked at the peach blossoms who were secretly happy, Niu Tianci understood. It must have been Wang Meng who was molested by this little eunuch.
It was easy to talk about it, so that Wang Meng put down his careful thoughts and began to stuff rice. Yesterday reappeared, and the scene in the wonton shop three times was re-staged. Wang Meng's classmate turned his grief and anger into food, that is, his appetite was open, he ate and chewed violently, and Niu Tianci had to roast the leg of lamb again.
Long Xingrong learned what was going on from Peach Blossom, and he smiled so hard that his eyes were discharged. Shouting that such fun things will try myself another day.
After eating and drinking, they rest without mentioning. Tianci was meditating and practicing in his tent, when suddenly the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Wang Meng's big bald head appeared in front of Tianci.
"Big brother, today the little brother was looked at by the peach blossom girl. Am I responsible for this? Wang Meng looked very aggrieved.
Poof, Tianci didn't hold back, and sprayed Wang Meng's face.
"Oops, my poor silly brother. Come over with your ear, and my brother will tell you a secret. ”
After a while, Wang Meng ran to the river and vomited.
"Peach Blossom, you dead demon, I will be inseparable from you in the future. Wow wow, wow. ”
The next day, the four of them went on the road, and Wang Meng walked a little fluttery because he vomited all night. had to lie on the back of the horse, this time no matter what others said, he didn't look at Peach Blossom anymore. At this moment, Wang Meng made up his mind to follow the eldest brother with all his heart, because there must be no demon like Peach Blossom in the eldest brother's family. (To be continued.) )
