Chapter 44: Wandering East and West (2)
The grass and trees are merciless, and sometimes they drift away. In the westerly wind, Zhou Yu stood in the tent, carefully studying the siege. Shucheng is his hometown, and Lu Kang is an elder he respects, how to minimize the casualties of the two sides, and even surrender without a fight, is his goal in this battle.
Just as Zhou Yu was thinking quietly, the voice of the soldier came from outside the tent: "Lord Zhou, the old lady asks to see you." ”
Zhou Yu hurriedly got up and left the camp and hugged Mrs. Wu: "Why did my aunt come to see me in person?" If anything, just call me over. ”
Mrs. Wu patted Zhou Yu's wide back, and her eyes smiled: "You kid, it's already so cold, why are you still wearing single clothes?" There is no one on your side who can take care of you, so you have to take care of yourself. I gossiped with you that day, and saw that the corners of your sleeves were worn out, so I cut some of my clothes with you. ”
At the turn of autumn and winter in the south, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the frost and cold wind are fierce, Xiao Qiao is dressed in a begonia embroidered with snow-colored fox fur on the shoulders, pretty as a peach in three springs, she holds a brocade bag in her arms, and walks towards Zhou Yu's tent with a smile.
The brocade bag is her newly cut clothes for Zhou Yu, the moon is white and shallow, which is in line with his dusty temperament. Xiao Qiao is not as good at female red as Da Qiao, this simple deep coat, she dismantled it, sewed it apart, and it took two months to take shape, during which she didn't know how many times she pricked her hand, a stitch and a thread, all of which were painstaking efforts.
But when it was about to be given to Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao retreated. His crooked stitches, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get into his eyes, Xiao Qiao stood outside the tent, and he didn't dare to step forward to let people pass it on.
Just as she was hesitating, there was a faint voice in the tent, and Xiao Qiao was surprised: how could there be a woman's voice in Zhou Yu's tent?
She listened quietly, and vaguely heard Zhou Yu say: "Thank you, aunt, it's really rude to wear tattered clothes...... It's just that this underwear was sewn by my mother when she was alive, and the deep coat was hand-cut by the first lady, although it was dilapidated, she was reluctant to throw it away, and she was always wearing it with sewing and mending, which made my aunt smile. ”
Xiao Qiao thought to himself, since Zhou Yu mentioned "aunt", the person in the tent must be Sun Ce's mother, Mrs. Wu.
Sure enough, I only heard Mrs. Wu sigh with emotion: "'Cocoon white rabbit, go east and west. The clothes are not as good as new, and the people are not as good as the old. 'In ancient times, there were few infatuated people, and even fewer infatuated men, and you can do this for the first wife, it is already in vain for the husband and wife between you. It's just that you can't be alone all the time, you always have to find a confidant to take care of you. With your appearance and character, what kind of girl can't ask for it? Don't keep suffering yourself. ”
Xiao Qiao thought so, pouted and said softly: "That's it, if you really don't want to marry someone else, you can enter the temple as a monk, why bother to provoke others every day......"
Before Xiao Qiao came back to his senses, Zhou Yu replied: "Aunt is worried, Gong Jin understands, but it is just as Aunt said: 'Clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as before'." Gong Jin only thinks about the peace of the world, and has nothing else to think about. ”
"Wooden nerd", Xiao Qiao scolded outside the tent, but accidentally summoned the tent guards. When the two guards saw Xiao Qiao, they saluted loudly: "Miss Xiao Qiao, but you are here to find Lord Zhou?" ”
Xiao Qiao was very embarrassed, wanted to hide but had no way, Zhou Yu heard the movement and opened the curtain: "Little Qiao girl? Please leave it inside. ”
Xiao Qiao couldn't, so he had to follow Zhou Yu into the tent and salute Mrs. Wu. Mrs. Wu replied with the etiquette of an elder, and then said to Zhou Yu: "On the first day of the new year today, I am going to take Shangxiang to the temple to worship the Buddha, so I won't say much to you." You're a smart kid, and you have to think about a lot of things. ”
Zhou Yu clenched his fists lightly, sent Mrs. Wu away, and then turned around and asked Xiao Qiao: "You didn't bring a chessboard today, it seems that you are not looking for me to play chess?" ”
Thinking of Zhou Yu's "clothes are not as good as new, people are not as good as before", Xiao Qiao only felt unhappy, and stuffed the burden in his hand into his arms: "Don't you love to wear new clothes?" I made one for you, so you can wear it. ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Yu's clear eyes: "The clothes you made for me?" ”
was cross-examined by Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao's little face turned red in an instant, and he was speechless for a while. Zhou Yu didn't think much about it, thanked him, and put the burden away: "You came just in time, I happened to want you to help me see, if you are the general who leads the army, where should you attack the city from?" ”
Under the tent of the Chinese army, the guards filled the huge willow bathtub with hot water according to Sun Ce's instructions. Sun Ce strode into the big tent with Da Qiao in his arms, and after turning into the screen, he put Da Qiao down: "Ying'er, you should take a hot bath, don't catch a cold." ”
Da Qiao struggled to push Sun Ce away: "You get out of the way!" I will never bathe under your tent! ”
Sun Ce hugged Da Qiao tightly and didn't let go, her push was like an itch to him: "No, it's cold outside, I've asked the soldiers to bring a few braziers, you can rest assured that you can wash here...... I, I'm not going to peek. ”
Da Qiao was so cold that he shivered, and his thin lips were as white as paper: "I'll go back to the tent and wash it myself, you let me go back ......"
"From my tent to you, there are thirty or fifty zhang away, if you boil water and fill the pot, it will take half an hour, you must have frozen sickness by then", Sun Ce couldn't help but say, hugged Da Qiaokang on his shoulders, took off her embroidered shoes, and stuffed her directly into the wooden basin.
His body was instantly wrapped in warm currents, but Da Qiao was so angry that he burst into tears: "Sun Bofu! What am I in your eyes, should I be teased and frivolous by you like this? ”
Sun Ce wiped away the splashing water droplets on his handsome face, and said with a straight face: "Ying'er, you know that you are the love of my heart, and these things I have done have no intention of bullying you at all!" You may think I'm arrogant and unreasonable, but I can't watch you fall ill and suffer! Today, if you are angry with me, you will have to take a hot shower here to get out of this door. If you don't want to, I'll wash it for you myself! ”
Although he understood that the two of them were happy, it was as if he had never heard him say that he was the love of his heart. Da Qiao stood in the wooden basin in a daze, like a hibiscus out of water, and his little face was red and white in the steaming water.
Seeing that Da Qiao was no longer so annoyed, Sun Ce secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and inadvertently noticed that her chest was wet with water, and the bright light was overflowing, he hurriedly turned around with a red face, and stumbled and said: "I asked them to put the brazier at the door, I'll go get it, you can wash it with confidence, I'll find my sister-in-law to send you clothes in a while......"
After saying that, Sun Ce walked to the tent door and picked up the brazier one by one. Seeing that Sun Ce had no intention of blasphemy, and he couldn't leave, Da Qiao had no choice but to reluctantly take off his already soaked clothes.
Needless to say, under the hot fumigation, the bone-eroding cold slowly disappeared, and the whole person was a little more comfortable. Sun Ce fiddled with the sand table from afar, motionless, his tall and handsome body reflected on the screen, which was very good-looking. Just as Da Qiao was distracted, Zhou Yu's beautiful voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Bo Fu, are you there?" Miss Qiao and I have a plan to attack the city, and I plan to talk to you. ”
