Chapter 118 Settlement
In the evening, the carriage stopped near a village.
Xiao Luo asked Wei Shixi to drive the carriage to a remote place, jumped out of the carriage himself, and went to the village to check.
Wei Shishi's face changed, and he dressed up as a white-bearded old man, wearing the short fight of an old farmer.
"Fourteen, what's your real name?"
Qingluan, dressed in jasper, asked with her child in her arms.
Wei 14: "The person's name is Qin Jiang." ”
"Then I'll call you Qin Jiang from now on." Qingluan smiled.
"Yes! In the future, he will be called Qin Jiang. Wei Shixi pursed his lips and smiled, then jumped out of the carriage, picked up the crutches on the wheel, put them under his armpits, limped to the horse, removed its pout, and let the horse bow its head and nibble on some tender grass.
It's the end of February, and the snow and ice are beginning to melt, and many young grasses are popping up, turning the field a pale green.
Qingluan hugged the sleeping Bao, looking at the pink and white apricot blossoms not far away, and his heart was never quiet.
Since she can't go back to Jiangzhou, she won't go back, and after a year and a half, Xiao Boyan will stop, and it will not be too late for her to go back.
On her father's side, she can't make trouble for them, she already has Bao, and she can't be as willful and reckless as before.
Only if she is alive, her Po can live better.
After a while, Xiao Luo returned.
"Aman, I found a farmhouse to spend the night, now let's go over."
Qin Jiang still got on the wheel and drove to the village.
The family of four had only three rooms, so they gave up the best main house in the family to the couple and made them an egg soup cake.
Qin Jiang slept in the carriage at night to take care of the horses and the items in the carriage, while Xiao Luo helped take care of Ah Bao, changed his diapers, and brought water for Qingluan to wash.
Qingluan fed Po some boiled goat's milk, and lay on his side on the kang and fell asleep.
She almost died in that birth, and her body has been weak ever since, and she has no milk to feed her children.
Ah Bao is fortunate to have Xiao Luo to help take care of him, and in the past two months, he has carried Ah Bao out to feed the nurse.
Fortunately, Xiao Luo was on duty in the imperial city on the winter solstice, and when he heard that the secret pile had come to report that something had happened to the county lord of Jianing, he rushed into Luanfeng Palace with the forbidden army and forcibly took her out of the imperial city.
He then hid in a basement and robbed a midwife and an old imperial doctor to deliver her.
After she gave birth, Xiao Luo didn't let the two leave, and it wasn't until she was more than ten years later that her physical condition gradually stabilized, and Xiao Luo took them away.
Outside the farmer's house.
Xiao Luo fetched well water to wash Bao's diapers and put them on the drying rope outside to dry.
Go back to the house and take off your coat and lie down on Bao's side.
Looking sideways at Qingluan's pale face, he reached out to tuck her quilt away, and moved Ah Bao towards his side.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, Xiao Luo carried a basket of cakes made by peasant women overnight, held Ah Bao in one hand, and took Qingluan into the carriage.
Qin Jiang hurried the car and continued on the road.
They stopped and stopped at the end of April until they finally stopped at a mountain village north of Weizhou.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful and very quiet.
"Senior brother, let's find a house to live here."
Qingluan squatted by the stream and washed his hands, and saw that there were fish swimming around at the bottom of the clear water, and from time to time they swam to the surface of the water and spit out a blister.
"Okay." Xiao Luo smiled and nodded.
After that, Xiao Luo bought a farmhouse near the stream, and they lived in seclusion here.
This time, Qingluan took Ah Bao to the vegetable garden and asked the senior brother to go back.
"Senior brother, Po is awake, come and hug him, I'll cook."
Xiao Luo wiped the sweat from his head, dropped the dung spoon and walked over, "I'll wash my hands first." ”
He walked to the side of the stream and washed his hands, rubbed it on his waist to dry it, hugged Ah Bao from Qingluan's hand and kissed him, and said with a smile: "Ah Bao, call Daddy!" ”
Po grinned with only two teeth, his hands fluttering, and he screamed twice with drooling.
Xiao Luo said proudly to Qingluan: "Listen, he will call someone." ”
Qingluan smiled: "Ah Bao is only six months old, where will he call someone." ”
Xiao Luo carried Ah Bao and followed Qingluan to his yard, sat under a banana tree, and taught Ah Bao over and over again.
Qingluan rolled up her sleeves and stir-fried on a stove.
She is already very familiar with these tasks, such as cooking, stir-frying, laundry, sweeping the floor, etc.
In the past few months, her life has been happy and easy.
Soon she copied two dishes, and cooked an egg soup, and she put the food on the square table under the banana tree.
"Senior brother, you eat first, Ah Bao, I'll hug you."
"No, I'll hold him in one hand and eat, you can sit down and eat." Xiao Luo held Po in one hand and picked up chopsticks in the other.
Qingluan sat on one side, picked up the bowl and ate slowly, from time to time a few chopsticks and put them into Xiao Luo's bowl, and asked, "How is the dish I am stir-frying now?" What does it taste like? ”
Xiao Luo said with a smile: "Aman's craftsmanship is good, and my senior brother is blessed." ”
Qingluan pursed her lips and smiled.
When she first stir-fried vegetables, she either burned the soup too salty or scrambled eggs, and her brother also praised her one after another, and the dishes she made were extremely delicious.
"Senior brother, Qin Jiang has been gone for several times, I don't know if he has arrived in Weizhou?" Qingluan suddenly asked.
The smile on Xiao Luo's face gradually froze, and he raised his eyes to look at Qingluan, "Aman, do you still want to go to Yue Wuxian?" ”
Qingluan shook his head and lowered his head to pick up the food.
In fact, she is very satisfied with her current life, which is not easy in her two lifetimes. However, she didn't want to get married again, and she didn't want to delay Xiao Luo.
If possible, she can live well with Po alone.
"Senior brother, you, you have already hired a wife in Beijing, so you should go back and get married as soon as possible......"
Qingluan's words were not finished, Xiao Luo's face had sunk, and he picked up the rice again and again, and quickly finished the food in the bowl.
Then, he carried Po back to the house.
Qingluan looked at the bowl in a daze for a long time, and sighed silently.
As soon as he mentioned his family affairs in the capital, Xiao Luo began to get angry, and sometimes he couldn't talk to her for a long time, just hugging Ah Bao and asking Ah Bao to call him daddy.
Qingluan's current courtyard is some distance from the village, and it is precisely because of the quiet and beauty of this place that she decided to stay.
In the early morning, you can see the clouds and mist in the mountains, and you can stay at home during the rainy season and listen to the sound of the rain hitting the plantains.
She just wants to live here for the rest of her life, grow her own vegetables, do her own laundry and cook, eat and do whatever she wants, and have a different comfort.
Qingluan packed up the dishes and chopsticks, put them in a wooden basin, and went to the stream to wash them.
As she was washing, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if a strong wind was blowing in her face, and she hurriedly dodged sideways, only to see a feathered arrow stuck in the dirt beside her.
Qingluan immediately stood up and looked intently at the other side of the stream.
A group of men and horses roared over, accompanied by the sound of a woman's laughter:
"Your accuracy is too bad! I can't even shoot at such a big target! ”
A teenager was unconvinced: "Who I can't shoot!" I was dodged by this woman just now! ”
