Chapter 12: A Lively Scene
The Xiao family is eccentric.
I thought that the little brother who was knowledgeable and gentle and amiable was also eccentric.
Su Jiu squatted by the pond in the back garden of the small courtyard, muttering in his heart while struggling to fish for the small leaves on the surface of the water.
In the past, she followed her uncle to the town to listen to the play, and heard the story of her mother-in-law killing her concubine.
I thought it was just a story, but now it seems that the reality is far more exciting than the story.
She shook her little head, put these thoughts behind her, and earnestly continued to fish for small leaves.
Now it is the time of spring flowers, and there are a lot of lettuce in the pond, small round shoots, wrapped in a layer of natural transparent gelatin, reflecting the shallow light of spring water, looking fresh and lovely.
She quickly scooped up a small bowl and put it in a bamboo basket.
In the small bamboo basket, there were still small bamboo shoots she dug up and Ma Lantou she picked up.
The little brother saved her in the end, he couldn't eat the dishes on that table, but at noon, he couldn't make him hungry.
She's going to get him something to eat.
The small kitchen in the courtyard has not been used for a long time, the pots and stoves are covered with dust, and Su Jiu's hands and feet are diligent, and he quickly cleans it clean.
The pots and pans moved together, but after half an hour's effort, she remade three dishes and one soup, put them in the food box, and happily sent them to Xiao Tingchen.
At this time, Xiao Tingchen closed his eyes and crossed his knees, sitting on the Luohan bed by the window, playing with two black carved walnuts in his hands.
The little girl Gu Yu came in from outside the house and reported respectfully: "Master, the girl you got into the house doesn't know what to do in the back garden...... You say, will she be bribed by Madame and then betray you like the Purple Maiden? ”
Originally, this year's spring boudoir was going to Beijing to take the exam, but the lady was vicious, and even let the maid who served the lord Aster secretly poisoned the food, causing the lord to fall seriously ill, so that he missed the spring boudoir.
Now that the purple girl has become a celebrity next to her wife, I heard that she is about to be opened and given to her son as a concubine, which can really be described as a sparrow turning into a phoenix.
The more Gu Yu thought about it, the more angry she became, and she said indignantly: "Master, if that little girl dares to betray you, the little one will not spare her!" ”
As he was talking, a thin monkey-like sting suddenly came in from outside.
He cried with a sad face and stammered: "Master, you, you, what kind of bamboo did you plant in the back garden, didn't you give birth, gave birth to a few small bamboo shoots, and was dug up by someone!" Boom ......"
The master told him to guard the strange bamboo, but no one touched the bamboo for so many years, so he relaxed and didn't guard it much.
But he just finished the tooth sacrifice and took a look, and the newborn little bamboo shoots were actually gone!
The master said, this dragon is very rare and tight, and it doesn't give birth to small bamboo shoots every year.
If it is born, it means that there will be great joy in the year.
Xiao Tingchen turned the walnut flower in his hand steadily, "That's called dragon scale bamboo." ”
"Boom...... Master, it's all a small fault. ”
Shocked raised his sleeves to wipe his tears.
Gu Yu reprimanded in a rough voice: "Crying like a girl, don't be embarrassed in front of the master!" It's better for me to punch you a few times and give your master a good breath! ”
Xiao Tingchen raised his hand and motioned for the noisy two to stand down.
After the two pushed and shoved away, he opened his eyes and listened to the rapid clogs of the little girl outside the porch, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly.
The production of bamboo shoots with dragon scales is an auspicious omen.
Picking up the baby fox, isn't it a good omen?
After all, the bronze bracelet on her wrist is a rarity......
