86. There is an old man coming
In the middle of the night, the rain rustled, Xiao Zhen sat up lightly from the bed, and Mo Yu kept curled up in his arms, holding one arm of his hand and refusing to let go. Xiao Zhen was reluctant in her heart, lowered her head and bit and bit on her earlobe, until she hummed and retracted into the quilt, and then withdrew her hand.
I touched her belly through her clothes and said goodbye to one big and one small. Can't walk while she's awake because ...... Will be reluctant to go.
Mo Yu kept sleeping in a curled up position until dawn, as if someone was hugging her on the other side of the bed. When I opened my eyes, there was no one else around, and my whole heart was empty. Mo Yu is bored, so he can only tease Xiaobai.
When I walked into the yard, I saw that the cage containing Xiaobai was wide open, and the white plush dumplings had long since disappeared. In the corner of the cage, a thin chain is attached. The courtyard is surrounded by high walls, and it should not be far away, Mo Yu followed the chain to find it, and sure enough, he found Xiaobai in a bush of weeds, and carried it back by his ears.
That night, Mo Yu deliberately put Xiaobai's cage next to the window, but when he looked at it in the morning, Xiaobai still jumped through the window and ran. Fortunately, there is a chain that ties its feet, and it can always be found.
One person and one fox, just one escaped, the other chased, and tirelessly passed for two or three months. Mo Yu has been very inconvenient to move, every time he finds the little fox, he can only pull its chain first, and then slowly squat down to catch it. Fortunately, every time he caught Xiaobai, he was very well-behaved, stretched out his tongue and licked Mo Yu's hand, and went back with her.
Probably a little farther away that day, Mo Yu felt that her stomach was throbbing and aching, and she didn't dare to be careless, so she lay down early to rest. Without female elders to teach her, she doesn't understand anything, and she doesn't even count the days when the child is to be born. She only remembered that Xiao Zhen had been gone for ninety-three days, but she had not sent any news back.
She hugged the quilt, imagining that it was Xiao Zhen's warm and vigorous body: "Why haven't you come back yet?" I was scared, it was our first child and I didn't even know what to do......"
Xiaobai in the cage, I don't know what kind of wind he suddenly smoked, and he couldn't stop planing with his paws. The small door of the cage was not strong in the first place, and it hit it hard a few times, and then it scattered with a bang. Xiaobai sprinkled joy and jumped out of the window, and there were bursts of fragrance wafting in the yard.
Mo Yu stood up with his body, it turned out that every night, Xiaobai ran like this, and someone deliberately cooked sweet things in the yard to lure it. She put on her coat and walked out, just in time to see the little maid who usually waited, pouring sweet soup into the grass.
"Auntie...... Girl, why didn't you—why didn't you sleep? As soon as the little maid raised her head, she was startled, Xiao Zhen didn't explain, she looked at Mo Yu young again, and kept calling "girl, girl".
"Are you teasing this fox out every day?" Mo Yu knew that she had no malicious intent, so she asked casually.
The little maid didn't dare to talk nonsense, her hand twisted her clothes belt, and it took a long time to make up her mind: "It's not the slave and maid who make their own opinions, it's the Hou Ye who ordered it." He said...... He said that the girl doesn't like to move, so he puts this little thing out every day and lets the girl walk around, so that when it comes to childbirth, she won't suffer too much. But they should not be left too far, lest the girl not be able to find it, and she will be anxious, so she will tie her feet with chains. ”
Mo Yu listened to what she said, and his face was calm: "You go to sleep, you don't have to let it out in the middle of the night from tomorrow, Master Hou won't blame you." The little maid walked away in fear, Mo Yu raised her hand to cover her eyes, and water vapor came out from between her fingers.
From the next day, she got up early, basked in the sun in the yard, and walked slowly against the courtyard wall. When it was time to eat, the little maid brought light side dishes as usual, but Mo Yu asked them to remake bean soup and fish soup. She didn't like the sourness of the bean soup or the fishiness of the fish soup, so she closed her eyes and slowly chewed and swallowed it.
She is not alone, she can't live up to Xiao Zhen's wishes, no matter whether he can come back in time or not, she has to give birth to a healthy child.
I was relaxed, and the whole person looked better. The cheeks, which had become a little rounded, also had a little rosy blood.
"Girl, there is a person at the door, who says that he can exorcise evil spirits and summon spirits, and he blows it like a god." The little maid was in a good mood when she saw Mo Yu, and deliberately said something interesting to make her happy, "This kind of thing, if you believe it, if you don't believe it, you don't have it, why don't you invite him in and pray for the unborn Xiao Langjun?" ”
"I don't know if it's a boy or a girl...... Mo Yu smiled lightly, she still remembered that Xiao Zhen said that before Ji Xuan, she must have thought of a good name. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he must still like girls more. In troubled times, boys will inevitably have to go out for a while, but if she is a girl, she can be pampered as a matter of course and let her live a peaceful life.
"How did the man brag about himself?" Mo Yu asked with a grin, she had also done the thing of conjuring spirits, and knew that it was just a trick or a psychological effect.
He said...... The reincarnation of the gods can reach the sky and the earth...... Well...... Anyway, it's to describe himself as very powerful. The little maid couldn't learn that long list of words, so she frowned and sighed.
When Mo Yu heard these words, he felt familiar, and said "Huh", "Then tell him to come in and try it." ”
After a while, the little maid led a young man in, Mo Yu's gaze fell on his face, his facial features and eyebrows were still so familiar, and he took off all the glitz and glitz of General Fei, and Han Chong only wore an ordinary coarse linen clothes.
"Little ballad! It's really you! Han Chong was pleasantly surprised, but immediately saw her bulging abdomen, and the surprise of the reunion immediately disappeared, "Did Xiao Zhen force you?" ”
Mo Yu turned sideways to avoid his outstretched hand: "No, Brother Han Chong, I'm ...... It's me who wants to follow him. She turned her head, not knowing what kind of look to look at him.
Han Chong's hand was still in mid-air, embarrassed and unable to advance or retreat. Every time they met before, Mo Yu shouted "Dog, Dog", and when he was angry, he would knock on her head and force her to call herself "General Han Chong". But when the title in her mouth really became "Brother Han Chong", the little girl who followed him and always couldn't eat all day long finally became someone else's wife.
"How did you get here?" Mo Yu was also very embarrassed, especially when he saw Han Chong still dressed as a Chu person.
Originally, he came specifically to find Mo Yu, describing her appearance to people all the way, and inquiring about coming here. Since they lost the ink rumor in Yunzhao Mountain that night, they haven't been able to see each other again. Han Chong never thought that when they met again, they would see such a little ballad.
"I happened to be passing by, and I don't like to be restrained in the barracks and hang out." Han Chong tried his best to make a nonchalant look, "Since I saw you, I have to knock you well, I'll eat here for dinner, I don't have ten meat and ten vegetables, I won't do it." ”
"That's natural," Mo Yu also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "You can stay here for as long as you want, who made you my eldest brother." ”
Hearing that Han Chong came all the way to Qin State, Mo Yu couldn't suppress the anxiety in his heart and asked him about King Qin's spring hunting. She knew that Han Chong had always disliked Xiao Zhen, and she was afraid of upsetting him, so she could only pretend to ask casually.
Han Chong didn't know the cause and effect, and thought that Mo Yu had been bored at home for a long time, and he was interested in the excitement outside, and told her everything he heard and saw along the way. Speaking of Xiao Zhen's battle being bigger than King Qin, Han Chong still showed a little disdain: "...... With so many silver-armored soldiers going hunting, he still expects the bears in the mountains to fight him? ”
He spoke so vigorously that he didn't notice that the ink rumor had stopped making a sound, and the pottery bowl he was holding in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap" and fell into several pieces. When Han Chong heard the sound, he turned his head to look, only to see that Mo Yu's face was pale and there was no blood at all, large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and one hand was pressed on his stomach.
"Xiaoyao, you...... What happened to you? Han Chong panicked.
"You just said ...... Follow Xiao Zhen's ...... They're all, they're all silver-armored cavalry? Mo Yu grabbed his sleeve, and before he could finish a sentence, he was broken by severe pain, and his fingers unconsciously increased the force.
"Yes, Xiao Yu, will you think too much, Xiao Zhen has the power of the world, there will be no danger." Han Chong wrapped around her crumbling body, although it was to comfort her, it was also his own true thoughts.
Mo Yu bit his lip and shook his head, Han Chong didn't know the delicate relationship between Ying Shi, King Qin and Xiao Zhen, so he naturally couldn't see the danger in this. She clearly remembered that when she first met Xiao Zhen on the battlefield, he used 20,000 silver-armored soldiers as bait to make fighters for his gold-armored soldiers. Only his golden-armored golden eagle guard is his true cronies, and other people may kill him at any time.
"Big brother......" Mo Yu wanted to ask again, and the severe pain made it difficult for her to even breathe.
The bottom of the skirt was wet, and when Mo Yu reached out and touched it, his five fingers were full of red blood. She didn't know if the day had come, but she saw the maid next to her and shouted in fright: "Ah, the girl is going to give birth." ”
Han Chong couldn't care so much about it, picked her up, and sent her to the nearest room. The maidservants who were waiting on the side hurriedly went separately to invite the mother-in-law, prepare the thatch, and boil hot water...... It turned out that there were so many things to prepare for the birth of the child, and Mo Yu didn't know anything, but fortunately, before Xiao Zhen left, he had explained that even the small scissors for cutting the umbilical cord for the child were brand new and wrapped in red silk.
There was like a sharp sword slashing in her body, and wave after wave of pain forced her to breathe.
