Chapter 34: Pressing Forward
Ye Xiaotian hugged Yaoyao, who was holding his arm and screaming in pain, on his thigh, and while gently rubbing her bruised knees, he asked Mao Zhidao: "Is there anything to eat at home, I just patronized at the banquet, and I didn't eat a few bites." ”
Mao Wenzhi scratched the back of his head and said, "Uh...... We went to the restaurant at night, and we didn't eat at home. ”
Ye Xiaotian sighed, put Yaoyao on the beauty couch, and said to Yaoyao: "Yaoyao, if you are sleepy, go back to the house to sleep first, my brother will stutter first." ”
Yaoyao shook his head and said, "Yaoyao is not sleepy, wait for Brother Xiaotian to sleep together." ”
Ye Xiaotian snorted, touched her head affectionately, stood up and looked around, and asked, "Where is the rice jar?" ”
The tycoon said: "Rice tank? Yes! Rice tank! ”
Ye Xiaotian was funny and angry, and said, "Do you want to sing or what?" ”
The tycoon laughed dryly, "Oh, the rice is meant to be put in the jar, right?" I forgot to buy a rice bowl. ”
Ye Xiaotian shook his head and smiled: "It's really worthy of being a child of a big family, the girl of a big family is ten fingers that don't touch the spring water, and the young master of a big family doesn't know oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea......"
The tycoon suddenly froze and said hesitantly: "Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea......"
Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and said in a lost voice: "You won't buy all these things, right?" ”
The tycoon said slowly: "I bought ......"
Ye Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Okay, you can do some serious things." ”
The tycoon said curtly: "It's just tea...... I bought it, and I bought authentic montashi flowers, good tea. But oil, salt, sauce and vinegar...... Didn't buy it. ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, then I'll stew some rice." ”
The tycoon coughed and said, "Rice...... I also forgot to buy it. ”
Ye Xiaotian was silent for a moment and sighed: "Big young master, you are really big young master." Forget it, I won't eat tonight. ”
"Ahh Luo Daheng suddenly remembered something. With a smile, he pulled his schoolbag in front of him, and rummaged through it, his schoolbag was like a treasure bag, and it was filled with things in a mess.
Luo Daheng pulled inside for a long time, took out a piece wrapped in oiled paper from the bottom, and said to Ye Xiaotian like a treasure: "Ha! I just said, Siniang has to stuff a few pieces of osmanthus cake into my bag every day, I ran around this afternoon, I didn't care, I shouldn't have finished eating. ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled: "Osmanthus cake? Not to mention. You're in good habits, at least I don't have to go hungry today. ”
Ye Xiaotian tore open the oil paper bag and took a bite, and his face suddenly changed.
The tycoon clasped his two fat hands together in front of his chest and said in an aria tone, "Ah! The white and crispy osmanthus cake is like the moving body of a young girl, and it is intoxicating just to see it. Smell a bite of floral fragrance, bite a bite of smooth and soft oily, soft and glutinous, sweet but not greasy. Fragrant and delicious. The fragrance of rice and oil wraps around the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, just like you peel off her clothes layer by layer......"
Ye Xiaotian grinned and handed the osmanthus cake to him, and the tycoon hurriedly excused himself and said, "No, no, no, I can taste such a delicacy every day." Although I am salivating at the moment, ...... Big brother, you better take it to pad your stomach. ”
Ye Xiaotian said with a bitter face: "I think this osmanthus cake must have been in your bag for more than ten days!" ”
The tycoon was shocked and said, "What? Could it be that one day, I missed a piece of delicious osmanthus cake? ”
Ye Xiaotian slapped him the back of the head, and then grabbed a cup of tea. His tongue was numb to the tasty osmanthus cake......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Ultimately. Ye Xiaotian still hadn't eaten his stomach, but his appetite had been lost by the broken osmanthus cake. The tycoon rubbed sticky at Ye Xiaotian's house for a long time, and finally simply said that he would not go back tonight. wanted to sleep with Ye Xiaotian, talk with candles at night, and was kicked out of the door by Ye Xiaotian.
Looking at the hall that was full of piles and looked like a warehouse, Ye Xiaotian shook his head, and he didn't bother to clean it up, so he asked Mao Wenzhi to put out the incense and prepare to rest. Winter and Mao Wenzhi returned to the West House, and Ye Xiaotian took Yaoyao's hand and entered the East House.
Fortunately, Ye Xiaotian was already fully mentally prepared for the tycoon's inconsistency, so he was not overly surprised after entering the East House. In the east room, there is a shelf bed of sour branch wood, with dust, left and right gold hooks, fence columns, everything is available, the curtain is crimson, and the two happy words can be used as a wedding bed.
Next to the bed stood a solid wood screen with yellow pear, and behind the screen was a toilet. There is a footbed next to the bed, a set of tables and chairs with yellow flowers and pears opposite, a dresser against the wall, and a delicate bronze mirror the size of a window. As soon as you enter the doorway, there is a standing cabinet on the left-hand side of the wall, which blocks half of the chairs placed on the wall because of the limited space.
This room is not as spacious as a large family, a wide and luxurious shelf bed has taken up half of the space in the room, plus screens, tables and chairs, and toilet area, there are only two steps left in the middle to step out, and it is such a little space, and there is actually an oval bathtub stuffed.
Yaoyao said diligently: "Brother Xiaotian, there is still hot water in the pot, do you want to take a bath, I will rub your back." ”
Ye Xiaotian was startled, and hurriedly said, "I won't wash today, I'm very tired, let's rest early." At this time, Ye Xiaotian found that Yaoyao was wearing a set of small household clothes, his hair was slightly wet, and his little face was white and red, thinking that he had already bathed in the afternoon.
Hearing Ye Xiaotian's answer, Yao Yao obediently agreed, leaned over from the side of the bathtub, stepped on the pedal, took off a pair of small shoes, put them in place, climbed onto the bed and sat down cross-legged, took off a pair of snow-white step socks, and folded them neatly at the end of the bed. took off his coat again, untied his hair, wore only a small coat, knelt on the couch barefoot, and stared at Ye Xiaotian with a pair of big black and white eyes.
Ye Xiaotian said: "Okay, go inside and go to bed early." ”
Yao Yao said seriously: "No, my brother has to sleep inside." ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled: "Why? Are you afraid that your brother will fall out of bed if he doesn't sleep honestly? ”
Yao Yao smiled and said, "Of course not, my brother is an adult, how could he fall out of bed." However, my mother ......"
Speaking of this, Yao Yao's expression darkened, he bit his lip, and changed his words: "Aunt Shui Wu said." Women can't sleep in their beds. It is disrespectful and unlucky for a man to climb up and down at night. ”
Ye Xiaotian touched her soft hair and said softly: "It's not her fault that Shui Wu left you. It's not that she doesn't want you anymore, it's just ......, alas! You're still young, and you don't understand a lot of things you've said, you just need to know that she still loves you. ”
Haruka bit her lip and nodded slightly.
Ye Xiaotian said again: "What Shui Wu said is certainly good. But you're still young, so it's not a taboo. You are light, you sleep in it, even if you crawl over your brother, you will be gentle, and you won't make a noise with your brother. If my brother sleeps in it, sleeping in a daze, in case he presses you at night, how painful it is. ”
Yao Yao tilted his little head and thought about it, and seemed to agree with Ye Xiaotian's statement. So he smiled and nodded in agreement, crawled inside and lay down, pulled the quilt over his body, and a pair of big moving eyes still blinked at Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian said: "Sleep!" He turned around and blew out the lights. Crawled into bed in the dark, then took off his coat and got into the bed. Yaoyao lay next to him and didn't speak, breathing thinly, Ye Xiaotian could clearly feel that she was close at hand. But I couldn't touch her small body at all, and that feeling was very strange.
"This little person will grow into a big girl one day......" Ye Xiaotian suddenly wandered for a moment. But he immediately restrained his spirit: "Don't think nonsense, she is a little girl, Amitabha, and she is deeply sinful......"
Early the next morning, Ye Xiaotian woke up and opened his eyes to see that when he slept last night, Yaoyao had turned over, with one arm and one leg on him, and he was sleeping with a red face.
Ye Xiaotian smiled slightly, gently took her hands and feet, covered the quilt for her, got up and went to the ground with her clothes. The hall was still so chaotic, Mao Wenzhi was still asleep, he could hear his snoring from the west room, the door was open, and the winter who got up earlier than him was slowly punching in the yard.
Ye Xiaotian stood under the eaves for half a day and didn't see him in winter, I don't know if he was too focused on boxing or his eyes were really bad. Ye Xiaotian felt hungry in his stomach, so he turned back to the hall and lifted the lid of the pot to see, and sure enough, it was a pot of clear water that could see the shadow.
Ye Xiaotian had the heart to go out for breakfast, but if he wanted to go out, he had to bring the whole family with him, and he couldn't bear to wake up Zhengxiang, who was sleeping far away. In desperation, Ye Xiaotian suddenly remembered Hua Yunfei's goodness, when Yunfei was there, how could he ever worry about eating......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
When Ye Xiaotian arrived at the county office, Dian Ci and a few other officials had already arrived.
Ye Xiaotian is a new official, and Huazhi County and Xu County are obviously aiming at Ye Dianshi, who dares to touch his moldy head at this time, so when Ye Xiaotian walked into the signing room, several officials were already sitting in danger, sitting on the desk, and they didn't know what they were busy doing.
"Master Dianshi, please receive ten pieces of Mao Tai paper, ten pieces of Lianshi paper, twenty pieces of rice paper, a knife of bamboo paper, three pairs of inkstones, ten ink ingots, and ten brushes."
Ye Xiaotian looked at it, picked up the pen and signed his name with a brush.
"Master Dianshi, please receive two stones of charcoal and a tin kettle in the receiving room."
Ye Xiaotian looked at it, picked up the pen and signed his name again.
"Master Dianshi, please receive five books, two ink ingots, and two brushes."
"Master Dianshi, Qian Ajiu, the prisoner in the torture room, was seriously ill by his mother, and his salary was advanced by two taels. The king's book has been approved, and he will pay you two ...... of silver."
This morning, Ye Xiaotian dealt with these trivial things.
He is a canon, in charge of arrest and prison affairs, equivalent to the captain of the criminal police and the prison warden, but it is not that Hua Qingfeng and Xu Boyi deliberately embarrass him when the officials ask him for these miscellaneous things, because the canonical history is also responsible for the cashier of the ceremonies, and the office supplies and cashiers are under his control.
The division of labor in this era was not as detailed as that of later generations, and it was common for an official to hold many positions. For example, the county order is responsible for the county's tax collection, deciding on prisons, persuading farmers to harvest crops, disaster relief and poverty relief, culture and education, and sacrificing to gods and holes.
As his deputy, the county is mainly responsible for the county's documents, archives, warehouses, grain and horses, and taxation, as well as the supervision and management of political and legal affairs. The main book is mainly responsible for the civil affairs of the county, in charge of the county's household registration, document handling, household affairs and so on.
So there is nothing wrong with coming to Ye Xiaotian for these things, but there is no case related to the arrest of the prison all morning, which is a bit unusual. Ye Xiaotian raised his head suspiciously, noticed the dodging eyes of the officials, and gradually understood: "First empty my people, and then empty my power!" ”
: Go to sleep, yawn, leave your monthly pass, recommended ticket, wash and sleep~.
