Lan Shaofang suddenly said: "Lotus leaf, is it a green umbrella?"

Yan Xi will not let go of any opportunity to please Lan Shaofang, he smiled and said: "Yes, Shaofang, you are so powerful, you know the lotus leaf, and you also know the umbrella." ”

Lu Yu and Yan Xi'an felt a little strange, Lan Shaofang knew that the umbrella was nothing, but she actually knew that the lotus leaf was like an umbrella, it was a little unbelievable.

Lu Yu asked Lan Shaofang: "Shaofang, is there any place in Yangshan where lotus leaves grow?" ”

Lan Shaofang shook her head and said, "No, there are no lotus leaves in the mountains." She was also dazed and thoughtful.

Yan Xi'an asked, "Then did you see lotus leaves when you were a child?" ”

"Yes, do you have lotus leaves in your hometown?" Yan Xiding also understood, the lotus leaf seems to be a very important clue, related to Lan Shaofang's life experience.

"Xiding, I can't remember." Lan Shaofang looked at Yan Xiding, and her tone was surprisingly gentle.

Yan Xiding was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, you think about it slowly, don't worry, you will definitely remember it in the future." ”

"Hmm." Lan Shaofang nodded lightly.

Yan Xiding was extremely happy, Lan Shaofang had never treated him so gently.

During the meal, Lu Yu told Yan Jibai that Lin Siyan had come back again, and he had also become the county magistrate of Jinhua County.

"Lin Si is shaking back? It has also become a prefectural order? When the people heard the news, they were also very surprised.

Yan Xiding didn't feel too shocked, and said: "What kind of shake is that Lin, who was beaten into a dog by Brother Da Yu, and is embarrassed to come back?" ”

"If people dare to come back, they must have something to rely on, maybe they are not afraid of Lu Yu, and they may even come back to seek revenge." Mrs. Yan is a woman, thinking more and more cautious.

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Even if you seek revenge against me, don't worry, even if I really can't deal with them, I can still hide in the valley." His heart moved, and he said, "I'm afraid that Lin Siyao will go to embarrass you first, you all live in the city, and he knows you again." ”

Yan Jibai and his wife felt that Lu Yu's worry was not unreasonable, and when they were groaning, Yan Xi'an patted his chest and said, "Brother Yu, you don't have to worry, there is me." After practicing, Yan Xi'an became much more confident.

Lan Shaofang also imitated her appearance, patted her chest and said, "Brother Yu, you don't have to worry, there is me too." ”

Lu Yu laughed, thinking in his heart, these two girls' families have amazing combat effectiveness, especially Lan Shaofang, who launched a surge, a wild boar, dragon and crocodile or something, and killed as many as he wanted. But anyway, I can't watch them all the time, and I'm still a little worried, so Lu Yu said: "Why don't you move back, since Lin Siyan dares to come back, he must have the idea or means to deal with me, you stay under his nose, I am a little worried." ”

Yan Yubai and his wife glanced at each other, and said in a deep voice: "Let's look at it after a while, then Lin Siyan is now the lord of a county, and he will not blatantly come to embarrass our ordinary people." ”

Lu Yu muttered in his heart, in case Lin Siyan suddenly became difficult, he was afraid that if he wanted to go over to stop it, it would be too late.

Mrs. Yan also said: "Yes, there are many people in the city, as long as we don't go out at night, we will be fine." ”

Seeing that the couple insisted, Lu Yu couldn't say more, otherwise he was afraid that the two of them would think that he had some other intentions. Although, Lu Yu does have other intentions, that is, he wants to see Yan Xi'an every day.

However, Lu Yu also had an idea in his heart, that is, to go to Jinhua City every night with an out-of-body soul to protect Yan Xi'an's family.

The six men were busy for seven or eight days in a row, and all the rice in the fields was harvested, dried and stored in the barn. The grain was covered tightly with stone slabs, and the cracks were embedded with dry mud, so that it was difficult for even a small insect to get in, not to mention a mouse.

After the grain was harvested ashore, except for Lu Yu, several people were tired enough. So after the busy day, Lu Yu decided to cook something delicious to treat everyone and himself.

Lu Yu caught a hare and a pheasant in the mountain forest, and went to the waterhole to catch two grass carp.

In the early spring of the first year, the fish are not fat, and the hare pheasants are also a little old, but fortunately, they are all fresh. There are no vegetables left in the vegetable garden in Lu Yu's backyard, and radishes can only be used to stew fish soup.

The evening dish is a stir-fried pheasant with red pepper, stir-fried hare with red pepper, braised grass carp and stewed fish with radish. The chili peppers are not fresh, they are dried chili peppers that Lu Yu dried himself last year.

Only in Lu Yu's house, Yan Xiding can eat meat every day and every meal, he is a little reluctant to go back to the city, while serving Lan Shaofang vegetables, he said: "Why don't we go back, isn't that Lin County Order a grudge against us?" I'm afraid that if I go back, he will come to trouble us. ”

"I think you just can't bear the delicious food in the village." Yan Xi'an didn't really want to go back, but she was definitely embarrassed to say that she wanted to stay.

Yan Jibai said: "Why don't you stay in the village for a few more days?" The four of us went back. "The four of them naturally include Lan Shaofang.

"Forget it, I'll go back too." It seems that for Yan Xiding, the allure of food is still not as good as Lan Shaofang.

Lu Yu smiled: "Wait for two days, I'll go hunting and send you more meat." ”

"And send fish."

"I also want to send lotus flowers." Lan Shaofang didn't know if she had ever eaten a lotus pod, so she heard Yan Xiding say it once, and felt that it must be something delicious.

More than half of the first month has passed, and there is no movement on the marriage of Shan Tianfang and Fang Huaru. Shan Tianfang should be very busy, since the last time he followed Zhao Shoubei back to Yangshan Village, Lu Yu hadn't seen him since.

Even Fang Huaru and his family haven't seen Shan Tianfang for several days. Fang Darong went to the town by himself, but he didn't see Shan Tianfang, and later he asked Lu Yu to help him ask Shan Tianfang, so he asked him, "Do you want this kiss to become."

Lu Yu also thought about sending some fresh rice to Lu Ming and them, and then went to find Shan Tianfang. Lu Ming's food should be able to eat for a while, but when the new rice came ashore, Lu Yu also wanted them to taste it.

After sending food to Lu Ming's family, Lu Yu went directly to the town guard yamen. There were two officials standing guard at the gate of the yamen, they didn't seem to know Lu Yu and refused to let him in.

Lu Yu asked them again if they could help inform them that they wanted to see General Shan Tian Fangdan.

An official sneered and said, "General Shan? What single general? We have a guy with the surname Shan here, and he's not a general. ”

Lu Yu was too lazy to bother with this person, hesitated for a moment, and shouted directly at the door: "General Shan......" The voice was very loud and penetrating, and Lu Yu shouted at the two people again, and spewed out in one breath, and the two officials shook their bodies a few times, and they almost didn't stand firm.

"Your special mother's ......" An official scolded for half a sentence, and when he saw Lu Yu's cold gaze, the second half of the sentence was swallowed into his stomach.

After a while, Shan Tianfang still came out.

Lu Yu called Shan Tianfang aside, saw his tired look, and asked, "General Shan, have you been busy lately?" ”

Shan Tianfang shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "The newcomer Zhao Shoubei has been running to the villages below every once in a while, saying that he wants to observe the people's situation and let me go together, I can't follow it." ”

"Hey, he's pretty diligent." Lu Yu asked again: "On the seventh day of the next month, it will be the big day for you and Miss Fang, won't you be busy at that time?" ”

"Who knows." Shan Tianfang sighed and said, "Even if I don't go to the countryside, Zhao Shoubei told me not to leave the town guard yamen, saying that there may be a task at any time, and told me to be on call at all times." ”

Lu Yu frowned and said, "This surnamed Zhao, how do I think he is a heart?" Why don't you do it, go back to the village and farm. ”

"That's not possible, I'm afraid that if I go back, Zhao Shoubei won't care about those children."

Lu Yu had a question, he said: "Why don't you work under him, and he doesn't care about those children?" Isn't he still a parent here? ”

"Well, who knows. Anyway, that's what he said, and if I wasn't in town on an errand, he wouldn't have time to take care of the kids. ”

Lu Yu said: "What does this surnamed Zhao want to do?" He glanced at Shan Tianfang again and said with a smile: "Maybe he knows that General Shan's talents are precious, and he is afraid that you will not want to help him, so he deliberately uses children to blackmail you." ”

"Mr. Lu, don't be kidding, what kind of talent am I? It's just a desertion for Zhao Shoubei to run errands, it doesn't matter at all. Shan Tianfang also smiled and said, "If it weren't for Mr. Lu's shout just now, which was too loud and scary, the surnamed Zhao probably wouldn't let me come out." ”

Lu Yu nodded, his heart moved, and he said, "Okay, I'll also think of a way, as long as we can settle those children, you don't follow this surnamed Zhao to do things." ”

"Well, let's talk about it." Shan Tianfang was going back, and before leaving, he said again: "On the seventh day of the second month, I don't know if this family can become a family, and I will take a leave of absence with Zhao Shoubei in two days and go to the village." ”

"If you want to go back, no matter if you can get married on time or not, you have to talk to Miss Fang." Lu Yumu sent Shan Tianfang back to guard the yamen, and then went to find the group of children again.

More than a dozen children who were taken in and cared for by Shan Tianfang now live in a spacious courtyard. Lu Yu went to the gate of the courtyard and found that there was a big iron lock hanging on the gate of the courtyard.

Jumping over the courtyard wall and into the courtyard, Lu Yu saw a group of children sitting on the ground stupidly, almost no one spoke.

The children all knew Lu Yu, and when they saw him come in, they immediately became active and surrounded him.

Lu Yu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face and asked them, "You all live here, can't you go out during the day?" ”

One child said, "We can't go out, Lord Zhao won't let us run around." ”

"Lord Zhao said that it is very dangerous outside, and we are still young and cannot go outside."

"But I want to go out, woo-woo."

……

Lu Yu asked again: "Then you live here, do you have food every day?" Can you eat enough? ”

"If you're full, it's just not delicious." Hearing this, Lu Yu was a little relieved.

But another child said, "Lord Zhao said that if any of us are not well-behaved, all of us will not be able to eat." So none of us can leave this courtyard. ”

Lu Yu touched a child's head, was silent for a while, and then asked, "Are you willing to go to the village?" ”
