Chapter 514: Grandpa, Pick Up the Guest
514
The sun is sinking and the clouds are rising, and it is dusk.
An ox cart slowly stopped in front of the Chaoyong Mansion, the gate was closed, and there was not even a janitor.
The old ox car is broken, and the driver is still an old camel. The hunchbacked old man was panting harder than the ox pulling the cart, as if he was going to carry his back at any time.
"Ahem, ahem, it's here, don't come down quickly." The hunchbacked old man said to the people in the car.
The half-old floral cloth curtain was lifted, and a slender figure came down, dressed in red like fire, with flirtatious eyebrows.
The woman in red was holding a chubby little doll in her arms, but she was only two or three years old, wearing tiger head shoes and a tiger head hat, and she looked stocky and cute.
The woman pulled the placket of her clothes and combed her hair, and complained in her mouth: "Dead camel, you are dying slowly, you know that it is better to hire a mule cart faster." ”
The hunchbacked old man coughed twice and said, "Do you want me to pull you?" If you weren't desperate for life, who would want to go so far in such a cold day. ”
"Stop talking nonsense, go call the door." The woman in red urged, and looked up at the plaque on the door with peeling patent leather on the door of the house: "Are you sure it's this one?" ”
"I'm not old yet," the hunchbacked old man snorted as he walked up the steps and knocked on the door.
Winter melon is roasting sweet potatoes in the gatehouse and gourd, this year's newly planted sweet potatoes have just been taken out and sold, and gourds bought a lot of them when they got up early to buy vegetables.
The concierge is shady, and the weather is cold, so a small stove was born, one is to keep warm, and the other is to roast some peanuts and sweet potatoes.
Hearing the knock on the door, Donggua felt strange and said, "It's almost dinner, who will come at this time?" ”
Hulu said, "Go and see, maybe something important." ”
As he spoke, he also stood up and went to the door with the winter melon.
"The camel is coming!" Winter melon opened the door, recognized the hunchbacked old man at a glance, and greeted affectionately: "When did you leave home?" Walked for most of the day, right? Come in and have a hot cup of tea. ”
"Who is this?" Hulu looked at the woman in red holding the child, this master was not easy to mess with.
Before Uncle Hum could speak, the woman in red shook her eyes at the gourd and said in a coquettish voice: "My name is Wu Liuniang, and your grandfather's favorite pear blossom snow is brewed by me." I'm here today to catch up with your grandfather. ”
Winter melon let the three of them in and whispered to the gourd: "This woman shouldn't be the one who came to ask for debts, right?" Our grandfather has to go to her several times a year. And you see that she is still holding a child, it can't be our grandfather's, right? ”
Hulu rolled his eyes and said, "What kind of eyes are you?" That child may not be this woman's, what does it have to do with our grandfather?! ”
"How do you know this child was not born to this woman?" Winter melon pouted: "Look at how close the two of them are!" ”
At this time, the child seemed to support the words of the winter melon, and called out to Wu Liuniang sweetly.
Wu Liuniang kissed his little face very naturally, and as if she was afraid that he would be cold, she reached out and pulled his clothes.
"What about calling my mother," Hulu disagreed: "This woman has never given birth at first glance, don't believe it, you can ask her in a while." ”
"If you want to ask, I won't ask." Winter melon said.
"Oh my God, it's a duke's mansion anyway, how did it fall into such a dilapidated state?" Wu Liuniang couldn't help but sigh as she walked: "Tsk, I don't know that I thought that this house was uninhabited for a long time." ”
At this time, Zhong Ye was strolling in the yard, and when he heard someone talking, he walked over, and saw Wu Liuniang and Uncle Tong at a glance, and couldn't help but greet him happily and said, "Why are you two here?" ”
"Can't we see it when we're so big?" Wu Liuniang shook the little doll in her arms and said, "It's obviously three people." ”
"Yes, yes, it was my slip of the tongue." Zhong Ye smiled and stretched out his hand: "I haven't seen you for more than a year, let my godfather hug me." ”
Since Zhong Ye saved Wu Liuniang's child, Wu Liuniang simply let him be the child's godfather, and Zhong Ye also felt that he was quite fated with this child, so he did not refuse.
"If you think your godfather is calling for trouble, you can just go to the dry word!" Wu Liuniang turned sideways seductively, almost leaning on Zhong Ye: "I don't dislike it." ”
Zhong Ye took a big step back with the child in his arms, Wu Liuniang almost fell, and rolled Zhong Ye's eyes.
"It's cold outside, let's get warm inside!" Zhong Ye let the guests into the house.
"By the way, I made a new bamboo tube wine this year, it tastes good, and I brought you a lot of it this time, as well as pickles made by the dumb woman, in the car!" Wu Liuniang said to Zhong Ye: "Since this dead camel went back last time and said that you were actually a super brave man, I have been thinking of your mansion to have a look. It's just that the vegetable club is too busy, and it has been delayed until this time. ”
In the spring, Wu Liuniang asked Uncle Camel to go into the city to send pear blossom snow to Zhong Ye as agreed.
Zhong Ye invited him to come to the house as a guest, and Uncle Camel went back to tell Wu Liuniang, who was naturally very curious and wanted to go into the city to have a look.
I thought that the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, but who thought of it here and looked at it, it was clearly a skinny horse.
Wu Liuniang couldn't help but tease Zhong Ye: "Originally, I was bluffed when I heard that you were my grandfather, but now I see that the two of us are quite a good match, you see that there are two servants under your hands, one is stupid and stupid, and the other is yin and yang, and they are not much better than the two goods under my hands." Although I guard such a big yard, I can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes, and my life is not as good as mine! ”
"Spare me!" Zhong Ye smiled: "I'm afraid that after you become the grandfather and wife, you will ruin half of the men in the capital by starting up." ”
"That's not going to happen," Wu Liuniang's eyes rolled, and she swept Zhong Ye's lower body: "It's up to you to be the master, and I guarantee that I don't have any outside intentions." ”
"That's not going to work out," Zhong Ye said as he teased the child, "I have someone in my heart." ”
"And!" Wu Liuniang snorted lightly: "I'm most tired of you men pretending to be in love with death, disgusting!" ”
Zhong Ye didn't care, let the gourd and winter melon carry the things on the car, and by the way, make a decent dinner to entertain the two guests.
Camel Bo's car pulled a lot of things, in addition to wine and kimchi, there were also a lot of cured meat and dried vegetables.
When the two of them walked in with the wine jar in their arms, they saw Zhong Ye standing in the door and holding the child in the palm of his hand, which made the child giggle.
"Alas! It would be nice if our grandfather had his own child. The gourd sighed and said, "I see a man who is almost thirty years old." ”
"If grandpa has a child, do you have to be a wet nurse too!" Winter melon said stunned.
"If you can make me milk, I'll do it." The gourd threw a white eye and said: "For so many years, I have done almost all the work done by women, and it is not bad." ”
