Chapter 41: Stewed Chicken Soup
After drinking the medicine, Bai Chuxia leaned on the pillow, thinking about whether Yan Lin she saw last night was she dreaming, or was he really here?
What happened last night felt very real to her, but she wasn't sure if it was just a dream she had, so she asked Begonia, "Begonia, what happened last night?" ”
"Miss," Haitang looked guilty when she heard Bai Chuxia ask her about last night, and said, "When the slave maid heated you water last night, she was suddenly knocked out from behind, and the slave maid woke up outside the tent, as if Captain Zhang took the slave out." ”
After finishing speaking, he cautiously glanced at Bai Chuxia, and saw that she was only frowning slightly and had no other expression, so he continued with a distressed expression, "When Captain Zhang went in last night, Miss was taking a medicinal bath, and I don't know if Captain Zhang saw anything. ”
Moreover, she found that Captain Zhang was very good to Miss, last night Miss took a medicated bath Captain Zhang not only boiled medicine for Miss, but also boiled medicine for Miss when she got up in the morning, she always felt that Captain Zhang liked Miss.
It's just that she didn't dare to say this, she only dared to complain in her heart.
Hearing Haitang's words, Bai Chu Xia gritted his teeth angrily, this hateful Yan Lin dared to sneak into her tent, and moreover, he also looked at her body.
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she just lay on the bed and picked up the quilt to cover her face, panting roughly, showing how angry she was in her heart at this time.
Seeing that Bai Chuxia didn't dare to say anything like this, Haitang secretly stuck out her tongue and turned to leave, going to prepare Bai Chuxia's meal.
She felt that the food cooked by the Huotou Army in this barracks was really unpalatable, and just now she was afraid that the young lady would be very hungry, so she gave the young lady the porridge boiled by the Huotou army, and now she has to cook it for the young lady herself. As soon as I walked outside, I saw Yuan Yichao walking over like this.
Seeing that Begonia Yuanyi still had an indifferent face, but the indifference was mixed with some guilt, he walked up to Begonia and asked, "Miss Bai is awake?" ”
"Well, wake up."
Haitang nodded, although she was still angry with Yuan Yi, and complained that he didn't protect Miss, but thinking of her plan to practice martial arts recently, she hesitated a little and said, "That, after this incident, I want to practice martial arts, so protect Miss, can you teach me?" ”
Hearing Haitang say that she wanted to practice martial arts, although Yuan Yi was a little surprised, could she learn it with her body? But he didn't say anything, nodded in agreement.
"Yes, you can."
Thinking in his heart, it would be great if she could learn some martial arts, after all, only she could protect Miss Bai closely, and if what happened last night happened again, it was estimated that the king would take off his title, after all, Miss Bai was the future Princess Ming.
As for last night's incident, the general had already approached him just now, and had warned him that he should not tell anyone about this matter, not even the king.
He knew that if this matter was spread, it would definitely affect Miss Bai's reputation, after all, he didn't protect her well last night, so he thought about it and agreed, he was the king's secret guard, this was the first time he had concealed it from the king, and he was a little uneasy in his heart.
Hearing that Yuan Yi agreed, Haitang happily went to the kitchen to cook for Bai Chuxia.
When I walked into the kitchen and saw that Zhang Huai was also inside, I was a little surprised, "Captain Zhang?" ”
"Begonia girl," seeing that Begonia was coming, Zhang Huai smiled a little embarrassed.
"What is Captain Zhang doing here?" Is it to boil medicine for the young lady? But now is not the time to drink medicine! Begonia was a little puzzled.
"Uh," Zhang Huai scratched his head a little shyly, and said, "I caught a pheasant in the mountains, and I want to stew some chicken soup to replenish your young lady's body." ”
Hearing Zhang Huai's words, Haitang saw the pheasant on the board that had been cleaned and cleaned, and immediately said happily, "Great, now I can improve the food for Miss." ”
They had never eaten meat since they came to this barracks, and they couldn't have been happier to see such a big pheasant on the board.
Hurriedly stepped forward to take the knife in Zhang Huai's hand and said, "Captain Zhang, I'll stew it for Miss!" Miss is used to eating the food I cooked. ”
In fact, she originally wanted to say, can your man's stewed chicken be delicious? Don't spoil the chicken, but I think it's a bit bad to say that, after all, it's the pheasant he caught.
"Well, that's fine."
Zhang Huai took a step back and gave up the place to Begonia. Although he still has some confidence in the food he cooks, after all, Begonia has been by Bai Chuxia's side since she was a child, and she is used to cooking her cooking.
Chop the chicken in half, put half of the begonia, chop the other half into small pieces, and take the condiments and put them in the pot to stew, thinking that half of them will be stewed for Miss at a time, and the other half will be stewed for Miss again at night, so that Miss can drink two meals of chicken soup.
Seeing that Zhang Huai was still standing there watching her cook, Haitang's eyes rolled and asked, "Where is Captain Zhang?" ”
"Uh," Zhang Huai was stunned by the sudden inquiry, thought for a while and said, "My home is in the capital." ”
"Captain Zhang's family is from the capital?" Hearing Zhang Huai say that his home is from the capital, Haitang was surprised, "We are also from the capital, can Zhang Xiaowei marry?" ”
She never forgot that Miss was going to divorce Prince Ming, thinking that if Miss would be seventeen years old after she divorced, it would definitely be difficult to find her in-laws, so she had to inquire in advance.
She saw that although Zhang Huai was in the barracks, he was very clean every time she saw him, not as sloppy as other officers and soldiers in the barracks.
And the person is also very good, and the most important thing is that he went to the lady's camp last night, although I don't know if he saw anything or not, but since he entered the lady's camp when the lady was taking a medicinal bath, if it spreads, it will definitely damage the reputation of the miss.
"Not yet," hearing Haitang ask, Zhang Huai didn't think much about it, his thoughts drifted far away, and said slowly, "Since I was a child, my family wants me to learn literature, but I personally prefer to practice martial arts, I came out with my master when I was ten years old, and went north and south with my master to learn martial arts, until I came to the barracks at the age of eighteen, and I haven't returned home until now, but from time to time I will send a letter back home to report safety." ”
Hearing Zhang Huai's words, Haitang frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied, she hadn't been home for more than ten years, and she didn't think she was a family lover, so it was not good. Thinking about it also dispelled the thoughts in my heart.
Seeing that Begonia's face suddenly changed, Zhang Huai was a little puzzled, "Begonia girl, but what did I say wrong?" ”
"No," shaking his head, Haitang smiled and said again, "Captain Zhang, don't you miss home after not going home for so long?" ”
"How can I not want to," Zhang Huai said bitterly when he talked about his family, "It's just that I haven't achieved anything in the military camp, and I have no shame to face them." ”
Seeing Zhang Huai say this, Haitang said with a serious and disapproving face, "Captain Zhang, although I don't know what your family thinks, but I think that your father and mother must miss you very much, and besides, Captain Zhang is now in the position of captain, how can he say that he has no achievements." ”
"According to the girl, it's time for me to go home."
Hearing Haitang's words, Zhang Huai felt that what she said was very reasonable, and his father and mother must miss him very much.
"Of course," Haitang nodded and continued, "Captain Zhang's parents haven't seen you for more than ten years, they must miss you very much, if you can go back, they will definitely be very happy." ”
After listening to Haitang's words, Zhang Huai said 'farewell' and left, thinking that today's general also asked him to count the list of people who returned to Beijing, he originally wanted to stay here to guard the border pass, but now he has changed his mind.
He hadn't been home for more than ten years, and he was also very homesick, but the thought that he wanted to go back with Bai Chuxia all the way was hidden in his heart, just as he was homesick.
