Chapter 3 The most afraid of the sudden silence of the air
Xiao Yu and the others traveled more than 60 miles quickly, and everyone was a little tired, so the three of them immediately decided to rest at the Liangzhou Post Station that day.
In the evening, the three of them came to the post station, showed the token and official documents to the post station, and the post station officer hurriedly arranged accommodation and dinner for the three of them. When he came to the room, Xiao Yu took off the sword and package with one hand, and untied the purple-edged cloak with the other hand and put it on the hanger in the room. Then he lay down on the bed. Prepare to relieve fatigue.
Maybe it was this sudden silence that reminded him of all kinds of thoughts in the past, or maybe it was the timidity of his hometown, he closed his eyes, but he couldn't control the past that suddenly appeared in his mind. There is the old spirit, the care of his grandmother, the brotherhood with the prince, and the tragedy of Zhou Ying before his death.
It's been five years, these five years, he forced himself to live a tense and fulfilling life, desperately learning martial arts, learning strategy, and becoming a desperate San Lang on the school martial arts field, not daring to let himself have the slightest relaxation, just afraid of memories, afraid of thinking of the first appearance of grace and vivid Zhou Ying in his memories, and afraid of remembering the grief of his teacher who lost his beloved daughter. Although Zhou Ying's death was unpredictable, he died under his own sword in the end. Thinking of this, a pained look appeared on his face. After tossing and turning, I couldn't sleep, so I held my head in my big bony hands and pressed it for a while, then simply sat up, gathered my clothes, put on my shoes and walked to the window. Prop up the window and lie down by the window to get some air.
At this time, a tactful female voice like a yellow warbler remembered: "Second brother, third brother, let me have a beauty sleep tonight, okay." Yes! It's hard to rest at this post station today, I want to have a close contact with the bed, and sleep in the dark. ”
He looked for the voice, and couldn't see the appearance clearly in the night, only saw a girl dressed as a village girl, who was pulling the arms of two young men and throwing them around, while deliberately humming: "Who pesters me to tell a book today, don't blame my sister for not recognizing my six relatives, use my Hundred Turns Thousand Returns Pill, or the Thousand Hands Guanyin Pill, haha, keep you "in good spirits" "Although I didn't see the expression, I heard that it was a lively girl."
I saw that the slightly younger man pretended to be scared and said to the girl, "Please also ask my sister's subordinates to show mercy, and my brother will leave." After saying that, he snapped his fingers on the girl's head and hurriedly fled.
The older one smiled warmly at this scene, rubbed his sister's sore head lovingly, and quipped: "Go back to the dark sky earlier, and my brother will go back to sort out what you have talked about first." With that, he turned and left.
The girl rubbed her head and seemed to make a grimace at the backs of her brothers, and then turned and went back to the house.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Xiao Yu's mouth quietly curled, and when he saw that the outside was quiet again, he pulled down the window, turned to look at the bed, and said with a smile in his heart, "Have a close contact with the bed", so he also returned to the bed, maybe the harmonious atmosphere of the three brothers and sisters in the family infected him, or he was not a sad spring and autumn temperament, and after a short adjustment, he fell asleep peacefully.
The next day, after some rest, the three of them were ready to continue their journey, and while waiting for the errand to lead the horse, Xiao Yu heard the female voice from last night again. Following the voice, I saw that the girl's whole family was dressed plainly, dressed as ordinary villagers. The girl held the list, and the commander was something, even if she wrapped a veil on her head, and even wiped her face gray and gray, she still couldn't hide her smart temperament. is a soil village girl, which is also a different kind of prominent.
The younger man wore a half-worn blue robe and carried some luggage with the servant. On the other hand, he teased his sister: "An An, don't say that you pretend to be a village girl, it's really like that." Hahahaha"
The girl didn't think much when she saw her brother joking, her eyes flashed at her brother, and she blurted out: "Cut, this girl is now the village flower, does the village flower understand?" ”
The amusement of the brother and sister infected the people around them, and the little maids all forced the convulsions on their faces to secretly laugh.
The guards next to Xiao Yu, Liu Xiong and Shi Bi, were also attracted by this laughter. Seeing that it was the young man, Liu Xiong stepped forward to greet him, "It turned out to be Brother Liu, are you going to set off too?" ”
Liu Xiong has a simple appearance and an active temperament. Yesterday, I met this brother with the same surname Liu, and I felt that the fate was deep and there was a posture of a fellow villager seeing two tears in the bay, so he had a talk with the third son of the Liu family, who was also lively.
The young man said, "Ah, Brother Liu, yes, we are also ready to continue on our way, take advantage of this good weather to travel for a few more days." ”
Liu Xiong said again: "Your brother and sister have a really good relationship!" It's enviable. ”
When An Xiu heard this, he was very proud of his sister's control. Pointing to the woman next to him, he said, "This is my sister, An An, An An is Brother Liu."
Liu Xiong greeted her.
An An saw that Liu Xiong was burly, dark-skinned, and his facial features were very honest, and he couldn't help but have a good impression of him, and said: "Brother Liu is good" and stood aside quietly. After a while, he said: "Brother Liu, but you have an upset stomach?" ”
Liu Xiong couldn't help but be surprised: "What do you say?" ”
The young boy said: "My sister is very obsessed with medical skills, she sees people differently from ordinary people, she does not look at beauty and ugliness, but only whether the other party has symptoms. Disturb Brother Liu. Just listen to what she says."
Unexpectedly, the girl was not to be outdone: "Brother Liu's face is yellow, his mouth is dull, and his nose is dark, which is a sign of spleen deficiency and stomach cold." Liu Xiong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "My sister is right, I often have unbearable stomach pain, and I am sick, but what is the cure?" ”
An An said: "Brother Liu, don't worry, your problem is not too big, as long as you eat on time, don't overeat, rest for two quarters of an hour after eating, and then exercise, pay attention to hygiene in your diet, don't drink too much, and slowly recuperate." I will send you three bottles of Baixiao Dan, you can take one tablet three times a day for a period of time, it will help you with stomach problems. After speaking, she asked the girl to take out the medicine in a red porcelain bottle from her box and hand it to Liu Xiong.
Liu Xiong hurriedly thanked: "Thank you so much, it's really my blessing to meet you." ”
An An's brother said: "Brother Liu is polite, her carving insect skills are not enough to worry about." Then let's say goodbye and see you again. ”
Liu Xiong smiled: "Then there will be a period later!" ”
After speaking, he turned around and saw that Xiao Yu and Shi Bi were already waiting for him with their horses, he strode over, turned over on the horse neatly, and clasped his fists at the brother and sister. "Goodbye".
An An waved mischievously at the three of them with a bright face: "Goodbye!" ”。
Xiao Yu and Shi Bi looked at such a bold woman, and they were also a little surprised for a while, which of those women in the capital is not Sven, steady, how can they be so lively and vivid, except for Zhou Ying, who does not love red makeup and loves arms, it seems that he has not met such a bold woman for a long time. In the end, both of them were "facial paralysis" people, their faces did not show anything unusual, and they nodded politely at them, and the three of them rode away together.
I saw that the elder brother hurriedly pulled his sister's sleeve and said: "Everyone is beautiful, everyone is beautiful, all day long, can you behave like a girl, how can you wave at a man?" I want my mother to see and punish you! ”
The younger sister made a mischievous grimace at her brother. Poke your finger in your ear and say, "Oh, okay, okay, my ears are calloused, verbose!" ”
Her brother threatened to beat her, and she lifted her dress and ran to the other side of the carriage. At this time, their second brother helped his mother and father to come out of the door of the post station together, looking at the two laughing people, the three of them were no longer surprised.
The father said, "Pack it up, get up!" ”
The mother is quite brain-distressed, seeing that her daughter has reached the end of her life, but she is still such a child, how can she be good when she arrives in the capital. He sighed and got into the carriage.
It turned out that this was the family of Liu Xianjian Liu, who came from Xiazhou in the northwest to prepare to Beijing, and Liu was originally the magistrate of Pingyuan County, Xiazhou, and had been an official in Pingyuan County for more than ten years. Master Liu is also an honest and upright person, only his wife, Liu Zhang's wife. has three sons and one daughter, namely the eldest son Liu Anping, the second son Liu Anzhi, the third son Liu Anxiu, and the youngest daughter Liu Anqi (taken from self-cultivation, Qi family rules the country and the world), this Liu Lao is a mediocre talent, if nothing else, he can sit in the position of the county order to return to his hometown, but the promotion is hopeless. However, since seven years ago, this old man has gradually become a star in the officialdom of Xiazhou, but what is going on?
