144 Self-Recommended Cook, I'll be with you
Luo Shi went home to recuperate, and although the spicy dish team was not guilty, it was not suitable to continue to operate.
After pushing the schedule set before, Li Chen came forward and went door-to-door to apologize and return the deposit.
The family's meals are now managed by the daughter-in-law, and she also has to take care of Luo Shi's injury, grab the medicine and decoction juice, and it will not fall.
Shengzi is a big man, and he has to go to the city gate to be on duty, he is seven or seven years old, and he is already well-behaved and filial if he doesn't make trouble for Luo, and he can't help much.
Fortunately, every morning, someone will pull a cart of fresh vegetables, fish and meat, the old hen kills one every three days, and there is no shortage of eggs every day, making it clear that she wants to make up for the sick number at home.
asked who sent it, Liba would only shake his head, and only said that he was in charge of running errands, and he didn't know who the owner was.
The daughter-in-law was confused, but Luo Xian knew it very well.
Three or five days after delivery, in the middle of the month, it was rare for Cuiying to open the courtyard door early in the morning, but she didn't see the guy who delivered the food coming.
Liang Yu walked out of the door, dressed in plain clothes and filial piety, without a trace of blood on his face.
In the past few days, she has lost weight very quickly, and she no longer sees the heroic appearance of the women who fought on the battlefield in the past, like a weak woman who lingers on the sickbed, if it weren't for the murderous eyes in her eyes, no one would believe it, such a woman would be Liang Yu.
Liang Yu twisted his eyebrows and threw a look at Luo Shi in the courtyard-
On the fifteenth day of the month, the old problem.
Luo Shi understood: Uncle Liang even delayed the delivery of food at night, it seems that he must be sick.
Gritting his teeth, Luo Shi removed the strip of cloth tied to his fingers, and saw that the swelling had disappeared and the flesh had grown, but the new nails still needed some time to grow and not heal so quickly.
"You are familiar with the Liang family, help me arrange it, I will sneak in for a few days, and I will come back when he is well"
There seemed to be hesitation in Liang Yu's eyes:
"You're not fully injured, or should I go?"
Luo Shi shook her head, this kind of thing is a mixture of blood and water, once she knows, she doesn't want others to interfere, and it can be regarded as a little selfishness of her own.
And Liang Yu's body is getting weaker and weaker day by day, this bowl of blood is released, whether he can come back alive is another matter.
"Hello to recuperate at home, I'll go"
Liang Yu saw that Luo Shi insisted, and he didn't persuade anything, but just said to himself:
"I'll arrange it for you, Uncle Ye has now moved out of the princess's mansion and lived back in the Liang mansion, you might as well enter the mansion as a cook...... Now that the ancestors are newly mourned, there are many guests coming and going to mourn, a lot of people have to eat, and there are a few more people in the kitchen, no one will be an eyesore, you should be careful."
Luo Shi nodded, entrusted the reluctant Qiqi to Aunt Cuiying, and coaxed:
"Mother will come back in a few days, you have to listen to your aunt, do you know?"
Qiqi was red-eyed, pouting, and said unhappily:
"Qiqi doesn't like General Liang anymore! For him, my mother threw Qiqi in Tongzhou for a long time, and for him, I was killed by bad people in the cell, and now it's still him, and my mother is going again! Don't want Qiqi again, Qiqi hates him! ”
Wow, Xiao Nizi cried openly, her little hands tightly grasped the corners of Luo's clothes, tears flowed, very pitiful.
These words were like a soft knife, stabbed on Luo Shi's heart, she squatted down, held Xiao Nizi's shoulder, and whispered comfort:
"The bitter water family has ruined the Xijon people, who beat the bad guys away for Qiqi? He's sick now, only his mother can save him, Qiqi, don't you want your mother to go? ”
"Sick...... Is it a painful disease? ”
Xiao Nizi asked with a flat mouth while wiping her tears.
"Yes, it's a very painful disease, more painful than the wound on my mother's finger"
"Then mother, go ahead, Qiqi will be obedient, and will obediently wait for my mother to come back"
Qiqi didn't know what kind of illness General Liang had, but she had seen her mother hurt so much that she couldn't sleep well all night because of the injury on her finger! You can't touch the water, you can't use chopsticks, and when you change the dressing, your lips can bite and bleed.
Since her mother said that General Liang's illness was more painful, then she didn't hate him.
Since childhood, my mother has told the story of General Liang, saying that he is even better looking than his uncle, and he is very good at fighting, and it is all because of him that he fights and runs away all the bad guys who ride horses.
Although because of him, her mother abandoned her many times, but she didn't actually hate him-
If he really looks better than his uncle~
Luo Shi coaxed Qiqi and promised to make her her favorite donkey meat buns on the day she came back.
After Qiqi took Cuiying's hand and went to the house to take a bath, Luo Xi also followed back to the house, preparing to leave for Liangfu in the evening.
She changed into a coarse cloth short, a pair of black double-beam shoes, a bun on her head, wrapped in a blue cloth, like a simple peasant daughter-in-law.
After simply packing up a bag, putting Liang Yu's identity certificate and the money documents for entering Liang's mansion as a cook, and when it arrived in the evening, a cage cart came from outside the courtyard.
Luo Shi got into the car, huddled with a bunch of women, staggered, and went to Liang's house.
*
Liang Mansion is the home of Jiangmen, although there are characters such as Liang Gong and General Zhenxi, but after all, it is not a merchant mansion, there are not so many carved beams and paintings, and garden corridors.
All the way from the backyard, it is a very ordinary deep house compound.
One into one after another, the bricks and seams, the Daiwa green bricks, there should be, but there is dispensable, only on the artistic conception of the style, that is the same.
The archway stands outside the gate, the white cloth is tied with a lotus head on the cedar, the white gauze lamp, the paper lantern, and the huge spiritual shed behind the house, the white curtain is everywhere in the house at this moment, and the crying can be heard everywhere.
Mrs. Liang is not a mourner, so she is crying.
Female dependents and girls gathered outside the mourning hall, hiding their faces and crying, many generals and men of the golden knife of Malaysia, got the emperor's approval, and deliberately returned to Beijing to mourn, this son cried like a child.
Luo Shi hung her head and walked by the mourning hall in a regular manner, but she didn't see Uncle Liang.
When I arrived at the stove courtyard, I was not very busy because it was past the meal time.
There were only a few spoon-making masters left, gathered together, sitting under the porch and smoking dry cigarettes.
The consul's mother-in-law gave a few words and explained the precautions during the white affair: be cautious in words and deeds, be careful in doing things, who is on duty, and work in several things, there are examples, just follow them.
When the consul's mother-in-law left, Luo Shi followed several women who came with him and found his temporary residence.
A low room on the south side, with futons scattered on the Chase bunk, five or six people living in one room.
It's free, and there's no restraint, everyone gathers together to talk about gossip-
The trivial matters at home, when they were on the big poop car, they talked about it almost, so they had to pick up some gossip and talk about it.
Because of Uncle Liang's fame, even a woman loves to gossip about his rights and wrongs.
"The murderer who poisoned Mrs. Liang is the daughter of the housekeeper of the Internal Affairs Office, I heard that she is a lowly concubine, her heart is higher than the sky, and the sons of ordinary families can't look down on it, so she wants to cling to the lintel of the Liang family, and it's good to be a concubine."
"Oh, it's not as I wanted, I hate the old lady in my heart, so I thought of this vicious method, and tried to frame the little princess."
"The little princess is protected by the Lord Banzai, what can happen, but I heard that the husband and wife are separated, and General Liang moved out of the princess's mansion, if the princess can't leave, he's afraid-"
"Shhh, don't say this, General Liang didn't want to see her, and the worshippers didn't go to the church at that time, only sent a silver spear, the little princess is the world of worship with guns!"
……
Chirping, Kan is energetic, Luo Shi sits on the very edge, inexplicably listening to it with relish.
Since the topic was on Uncle Liang, she asked "unintentionally":
"I don't know which courtyard General Liang lives in? I only heard people say that he was born beautiful and handsome, but I don't believe it, chopping his head on the battlefield is like a chopping board and cutting vegetables, all of them are meat lumps, how can there be handsome? ”
"Hey, don't believe it, I gave rice porridge once, and I live in the West Chamber by the lotus pond! The general loves to admire the moon, so he chose that place to live."
Luo Shi secretly wrote it down and laughed:
"Sister, you say yes, that's it"
"But isn't it, if you want to be born unbeautiful, why should the little princess be obsessed with it for so many years? I don't deserve it, if I am a few years younger, I am also a flower in ten miles and eight towns, and I am willing to be a girl in the house for General Liang."
When the woman said this, she made a big red face, and the people on the side laughed to herself.
Luo Shi smiled along, and after putting her things away, she excused herself to go to the hut and slipped out alone.
……
Groping around to find the west chamber by the lotus pond, Luo Shi hid behind a half-human-high bush, poked her head out and looked-
I saw that on the corridor outside the west chamber gate, there were two women standing.
These two people, Luo Shi has seen both.
One is a little princess with a delicate posture and a plain white brocade dress, and the other is a cold and arrogant Liang mother who is beautiful even if she wears filial piety.
Prick up their ears to listen, and the words of their conversation were blown by the wind in bits and pieces, and they penetrated into their ears as if they were nothing.
"Mrs. Liang, let me see the horse."
The little princess holds her own identity, and she refuses to call her mother to Liang's mother, her biological mother is the late queen, how can the woman in front of her be comparable?
"Princess, please go back, the old lady is newly mourned, the uncle is too sad at night, the belt is not wide, the rice and water are not in, the body is not good, it is inconvenient to see you"
"He's my colt, what's so convenient or inconvenient, don't stop me!"
"Princess! Li Yixi is dead, but the truth is clear to you and me, my Liang family has been a servant of the emperor for generations, and my life is low, so I dare not ask the princess to pay for my life. But people's hearts are always affectionate, and the princess doesn't care about her husband's feelings, so how can she talk about his affectionate feedback with you? That's all for you, don't you think it's embarrassing? ”
When Luo Shi heard this, she understood in her heart: who is the initiator, whether it is the emperor or the Liang family, they all know it, but for the sake of the royal face, they will no longer pursue it.
After all, it is the royal family who is ashamed of Liangmen, so Uncle Liang abandoned the princess at night and lived alone, although it was not the same, the emperor could only admit it.
The little princess was counted down by her mother-in-law, and she was ashamed and angry, and even her father, who doted on her, didn't help her this time.
After losing her temper at the maid next to her, she left in a huff.
Luo Xi waited for Liang's mother to leave before the cat came out, pushed open the door of the west chamber, and crept in.
A dim oil lamp was lit in the wing, and a newly delivered supper rested on the round table, and not a single chopstick had been touched.
Luo Shi pulled out the silver hairpin that fixed the bun, picked out her fingers, squeezed some blood into a bowl of soup fruit, and waited until it was evenly shaken, and held it in the palm of her hand.
I vaguely remember that in the military tent that day, Uncle Liang was crazy at night, and he didn't recognize anyone at all, so in order to prevent him from being killed by mistake today, Luo Shi had to suck the root of the wall and walk, a little closer to the edge of the bed in the inner room.
Lifting the curtain of the inner room, she saw the back of a person faintly on the dim bed.
"Uncle Liang?"
Luo Shi called him softly, but did not respond.
Putting the soup fruit in his hand on the plum blossom table on the side, Luo Shi stepped on the bed board, sat on the edge of the bed, and helped him on his shoulder-
Uncle Liang put his fist against his heart at night, the whole person curled up, his whole body was hot, and he couldn't stop muttering something in his mouth.
"Why did it burn so badly? Drink the things first, come, get up"
"Radius...... Astringent? ”
Uncle Liang closed his eyes in the middle of the night, only slowly raised his palm, touched her cheek, slowly slid over her eyebrow bone and the bridge of her nose, and after confirming the person in front of him, he slid his throat and asked in a dumb voice:
"Your fingers...... Does it still hurt? Did you wipe the wound medicine brought by the trustee? ”
"It hurts, so don't make me bother, get up and drink it yourself"
Luo Shi dragged the person straight, put an embroidered python pillow on his back, held the bowl, and sent the soup fruit mixed with blood and water to his mouth one by one.
Uncle Liang burned very badly at night, and he couldn't lean on the bed table, sipping the soup handed by Luo Shi.
His gaze was firmly fixed on her, and in the dim inner room, the moonlight shone through the window lattice, and fell on the strands of Luo's hair, dyed with a layer of silver.
"You, what are you looking at?"
A bowl of soup and lying fruit went down, Luo Shi took out Juan Pa, wiped the corners of his lips, and saw that his eyes couldn't stop lingering, so he had to lower his eyes and ask in a whisper.
"What if...... The poison in my body is the only reason for you to stay with me, and I would rather stay with me for the rest of my life—"
"What are you talking about!"
Luo Xi whispered softly and interrupted his words: "Bah, the emperor and the queen of heaven, this person's brain is burned and confused, don't count!" ”
Uncle Liang smiled, shook her hand, looked down at her fingers carefully, and his eyes were full of distress:
"Did I make a mistake here, or did I make you suffer?"
Luo Shi's heart warmed, and when he just wanted to pretend to be generous, and said that he didn't hurt at all, he heard him make up for the knife again:
"What a good pair of hands, if it's really useless...... It's a pity that those people are delicious."
"Uncle Liang! How dare you be angry with me? It's not good to provoke anyone, you provoke such a respectful female Bodhisattva, and you want to accept a concubine - when it really hurts me to death, where are you, and you dare to say cool things to me! ”
Luo Shi slapped his thigh, pulled out his voice, and was about to find him to choke.
Uncle Liang smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, saw her struggling in his arms, wrinkled his brows, and whispered in his ear:
"I'm sick, but it's ten million times more painful than you, and you're still so fierce?"
Luo Shi eats soft and not hard, his pitiful appearance makes her like a bulging balloon, and when she releases her breath, the whole person softens.
From the stiffness at the beginning, to the gradual snuggling in his arms, pillowing on his shoulders, Luo said in a muffled voice:
"Do you feel better?"
"En......"
Uncle Liang hugged people at night, and gradually fell asleep in a small world with a bed drapery.
Because of the violent death of the old ancestor, the guardian was in charge of white things, and then he lost his soul in a frenzy, and in the past few days, he has hardly slept a whole night.
Smelling the smell of Luo Shi's body, Uncle Liang breathed a long breath at night, and when Luo Shi found out, he had already fallen asleep.
"Uncle Liang?"
Luo Shi sighed secretly, and planned to get up from his arms and go to stir a cold cloth for him, but as soon as his body moved, he had already asked him to come back again.
The two of them fell on the bed together, and he lay on his side, holding the person with one hand—
Luo Shi raised her eyes, and between the two of them, she could clearly see the blue-black tiredness under his eye sockets.
Pulled the innermost brocade quilt, Luo Shi covered herself and Uncle Liang at night, and now, she couldn't bear to wake up Uncle Liang Ye anymore because she didn't care if the woman who lived with her would look for her.
"Okay, you can get some rest, I'll be with you......"
