Out of nowhere, there was a distant rooster crowing from the farmhouse, and Zhou Yu put on a dark cloak, ready to go to the school training ground. Xiao Qiao in the inner room also got up when he heard the sound, rubbed his sleepy eyes, quickly washed up, and said to Zhou Yu: "I also want to see the training, take me with you." ”

Zhou Yu did not object for the first time, looked at Xiao Qiao for a long time, frowned and said: "But you don't look like a little guy", as he spoke, he picked up the brush on the case, dipped it in a little burnt ink, and thickened Xiao Qiao's willow eyebrows on his sideburns a little.

Xiao Qiao looked in the mirror for a moment, and laughed out loud: "It's so ugly." ”

"It would be nice if it could be ugly, let's go", Zhou Yu said, without waiting for Xiao Qiao to reply, he walked out of the door, Xiao Qiao followed suit, and the two of them rushed to the school yard by car.

In the paddock, the soldiers all assembled, did not rush to practice, but first sang a song in unison, the word is the famous article "No Clothes" in the "Book of Songs", but the tune was changed by Zhou Yu to Wu Di Feng Gu, which was boring and exciting.

Xiao Qiao whispered: "'How can you say that you have no clothes, and you are in the same robe with your son', it is really suitable to sing at this time, but why do you want them to sing before training?" ”

"Confucius said: 'Flourish in poetry, stand in ceremony, and become happy', I hope that these soldiers will come out to fight, not entirely for their livelihood, but for the sake of righteousness."

"Then why don't you adapt the mulberry picking dance, the lotus picking song, and the song, so that the farmers can follow suit?"

Zhou Yu thought about it and felt that Xiao Qiao's words were reasonable: "Come one by one, if you can achieve them all, it will be wonderful." ”

When the generals saw Zhou Yu, they all came up to salute him with joy and sincerity, and Zhou Yu also returned the salute. Xiao Qiao obediently retreated not far away, staring at the figure of the white-clothed Confucian robe.

Not long after, Zhou Yu talked with the generals, and they went back to training. Zhou Yu didn't see Xiao Qiao on his side, so he was a little anxious, turned around and met her gentle eyes, and laughed unconsciously: "Why did you hide aside." ”

Xiao Qiao stuck out his tongue and stepped forward and said, "Thinking that you are talking about military aircraft, it is inconvenient to listen." They all call you Zhou Lang, probably because they see that you are young and handsome, and they are afraid that a 'General Zhou' will call you old, right? ”

"I don't know about this, but I have ambitions, I'm not afraid of getting old, I'm just afraid of wasting my time doing nothing, if it's ......" Zhou Yu looked at Xiao Qiao, but didn't continue, "Let's go over there and sit down for a while." ”

Xiao Qiao followed Zhou Yu to the camp tent, only to see that in addition to the sand table of the book, there were also a few bottles and pots with square mouths and round bellies in the tent. ”

"In between training, several generals took pleasure in it, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so I let them keep it."

Xiao Qiao picked up the flat arrow, eager to try, but suddenly came to the attendant outside the tent, and presented Zhou Yu with a volume of letters, the roll was marked red, and it was an urgent report, Zhou Yu read it, and instructed the attendant: "Quickly invite a few generals into the tent." ”

Xiao Qiao didn't know where to go to avoid it, and heard Zhou Yu say: "It's not that I'm going to drive you away now, but it just so happens that I have something important to discuss with your brother-in-law, and tomorrow morning, I will send you back to Gusu." ”

It's only been a day and I'm going back, Xiao Qiao is full of unconcealable loss, and runs out of the tent with a small head.

Zhou Yu wanted to say something, but several generals had already entered the account, and Zhou Yu had to put Xiao Qiao's matter down for the time being, and discuss with everyone how to deal with themselves once Yuan Shu usurped the emperor. Everyone expressed their opinions, and the discussion had reached the west. Zhou Yu hurriedly went to look for Xiao Qiao, but she was no longer visible inside and outside the tent.

Zhou Yu didn't delay any longer, rode back to the station, and only then pushed the door into the courtyard, and saw Xiao Qiao running away and rushing out of the kitchen. The smoke in the kitchen was billowing out, choking Zhou Yu and coughing: "What's the matter?" You're not hot, are you? ”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu came back when he was most embarrassed, Xiao Qiao didn't care about wiping his blackened face, and pushed Zhou Yu to the inner room: "Don't come over, go back to the room first and wait, I'll get it done in a while." ”

Zhou Yu couldn't bear to refuse Xiao Qiao's wishes, so he had to sit and wait. About half an hour later, Xiao Qiao changed back into a peach-colored skirt, her little face was cleaned, and she walked into the room with a bowl of thick soup and fish curd, her little hand wrapped around the silk yarn, and said shyly: "Auntie said that you love to eat this, I deliberately learned it, but I couldn't do it well, and I almost burned down the house...... Fortunately, in the end, it didn't get into trouble, you can taste it, whether it suits your appetite. ”

Thinking that Xiao Qiao would be angry because of the morning's incident, Zhou Yu prepared a stomach to coax her, but at this time he didn't need it, he took the bamboo chopsticks handed by Xiao Qiao, lightly pinched a piece of fish rot and put it in his mouth.

Xiao Qiao saw Zhou Yu's eyebrows frowning, and he was very nervous: "How is it?" Isn't it...... Isn't it delicious? ”

"Ah, no, I didn't expect you to make it so well, it tastes exactly the same as your aunt's cooking." 
Hearing what Zhou Yu said, Xiao Qiao let go of his hanging heart and said happily: "Really? I'll try ...... too."

Zhou Yu raised her hand and pressed down her chopsticks, joking childishly: "Hey, since it's made for me, just give it all to me, are there any other dishes?" ”

"There is also porridge, you wait", Xiao Qiao ran back to the kitchen, and when he saw the remaining soup in the iron ding, he couldn't help but taste it with his hands. Unexpectedly, a bitter and astringent taste came to the tip of her tongue, and she hurriedly rinsed her mouth with clear tea. When I wanted to do it, I was so anxious that I forgot to go to the fish gall bladder.

The soup is still so unpalatable, shouldn't the fish rot vomit to death, she hurriedly brought the hot tea back to the room, snatched the bamboo chopsticks from Zhou Yu's hand, and handed over a cup of tea: "It's so unpalatable, don't eat it......"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed lightly: "Although the dishes don't taste good, your mind is good, isn't there still porridge?" Stop busy, let's eat. ”

It is the thirty-ninth day of the lunar month, and as the night falls, the frost also arrives as promised. The room is cold, and the charcoal pot is just a drop in the bucket. In order to keep warm, Zhou Yu cooked green plum wine, and after drinking a few glasses with Xiao Qiao, he plucked the strings and played the stepping song: "I heard you talk about stepping songs in the morning, it is very insightful, do you know how to dance and dance?" ”

Reunions are always short-lived, and she will be separated from Zhou Yu tomorrow, in fact, from the day she came, she knew that Zhou Yu could not let her be here, waiting for her father to return to Gusu together. The warm plum wine added a little sadness, and when she heard Zhou Yu ask, she stood up and danced to the sound of the piano. The willow waist is light, the red sleeves are rolling over the waves, the flying coat is blowing in the clouds, but the smell of wine is gradually rising.

I don't know when, the sound of the piano stopped, Xiao Qiao stopped taking a small step, only to feel that the world was spinning, she was about to fall, but she was grabbed by the waist, and Zhou Yu's handsome appearance was full of eyes.

Before Xiao Qiao came back to his senses, he heard Zhou Yu's voice ringing in his ears: "I know, I want to send you back tomorrow, you are very wronged." But leading troops to fight is no joke, and I am very satisfied that you can come and stay for a day before the war. I also want you to see if you can bear the life here, after all...... With me, it's been like this for the rest of the day. I won't regret this life, but you are still young, are you willing to spend the next few decades with me in this barracks wall? ”

The smell of wine made Xiao Qiao's cheeks crimson, she didn't seem to understand Zhou Yu's words, her eyes widened, and her eyes were full of confusion.

Zhou Yu circled Xiao Qiao's hand tighter, and said word by word: "Goodbye tomorrow, I don't know when we will meet again, I know that it is a bit inappropriate to say such things now, but I don't want to see you marry someone else one day, even if I am selfish, I want to keep you by my side." Wan'er, I have suppressed these words for many years, and I used to be able to control them, but now you are a big girl, if you really miss it, it will be a lifetime of rebellion. If...... Would you like to ...... When General Qiao comes out, I want to propose to him......"

A small window reveals the scenery outside the river, only to see the dim night at some point glowing red, and the snow flakes falling from the sky, rustling on the thatched roof.

Xiao Qiao felt a little real at this time, buried his little face on Zhou Yu's shoulder, and choked up: "I'm not as virtuous as my sister, I can't cook, and the clothes I sew are crooked, will you regret it?" ”

Zhou Yu didn't answer, raised his slender knuckles, brushed Xiao Qiao's soft and plump lips, and leaned over to peck lightly. Little Joe blushed, hung his head in a panic, and said, "This is the first time you kissed me......"

"Wasn't it counted at that time? That's right, you kissed me that time. ”

Seeing a slight smile on Zhou Yu's handsome face, Xiao Qiao was ashamed and annoyed, and stumbled: "I...... I didn't mean to! ”

"You once, I once, aren't we even?" Zhou Yu's smile deepened, and he picked up Xiao Qiao's little face, kissed it lightly and murmured, "That's it, don't flatten it......"
