Chapter 293: The Secret of Water Chestnut
Winter in the West is coming.
At this time, the mutton is plump and fat, and the smell is not heavy.
In the early morning, a large pot is stewed on a low heat, and a bowl of meat is dug out at lunchtime, mixed with condiments and dried tofu, which can be wrapped in burritos or eaten with white rice.
For dinner, a bowl of mutton soup came out, and I drank it hot and went to sleep, and even the soup woman could be one less.
Song Lingfang came back from the martial arts field, covered with yellow sand and sweat, took a bath, and walked to Ru'er's room.
Ru'er began to practice swords today, practiced for a long time, his hands were soft and couldn't lift up, and the dinner was fed to him spoonful by spoon of water chestnut, and he forced himself to eliminate his food, and fell asleep.
Song Ling pushed open the door of Ru'er's inner room, and saw water chestnut sitting at the table and wiping Ru'er's sword.
When she saw that it was Song Ling, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, but her eyes were misopened, and she made a look of not caring.
Song Ling didn't squeak, and walked straight to sit down opposite her.
The eyelids of the water chestnut were weak, and he put down the sword in his hand and said, "It seems to be a little heavier." ”
Song Ling took the sword in his hand and weighed it, and said, "It's almost the same, when I first started practicing the sword, it was almost this catty." ”
The water chestnut glanced at him, his always chic eyebrows revealed a bit of ambiguity, and there was a bit of thin anger in his tone.
"You don't feel distressed, Ru'er finished practicing the sword today, and he didn't even have the strength to hold a spoon, and tomorrow he will be even more sour to the root of his teeth."
Song Ling gently glanced at the sleeping Ru'er, then looked at the water chestnut, and said: "You have to suffer for a while before you can learn some real skills, you practiced kung fu when you were a child, isn't it bitter?" ”
The water chestnut was embarrassed by him, and said, "Good and dignified, why did you talk about me?" ”
Song Ling knew the temperament of the water chestnut, and she looked very aggressive, but she was extremely shy, and she couldn't pierce her yet.
If it is pierced, it will hide from you for a while!
Two months ago, when the desert season came, a team searched for a dozen lost camels for the people and went into the desert, only to disappear.
Song Ling and water chestnut went to look for it, but they were trapped in the sand nest and almost died, Song Ling thought that he was dead, so he told the water chestnut his good feelings.
Although the water chestnut has many scruples, she has been secretly in love with Song Ling for many years, and in the face of Song Ling's active confession, how can she bear it, take the ring around her waist and put it back on Song Ling's finger.
The two thought that they would definitely die, and embraced each other quietly in the sand nest.
Unexpectedly, this year, the wind in the desert stopped for two days, allowing the two to find a glimmer of life.
After that, the water chestnut began to avoid Song Ling.
Song Ling could only see her when Ru'er was present. Other times, the man doesn't know where he is.
Song Ling blocked her for a few days, and finally blocked her in a tavern in Huangyang Town in the west.
The tavern is a cave, with only a skylight that opens on sunny days and closes on rainy days, and people can only enter through the gate.
Song Ling didn't force her, just sat at the table at the door, ordered a jar of wine, and didn't leave.
The water chestnut had no choice but to drink glass by cup, and when all the guests were gone, only the two of them were left.
The water chestnut was already drunk, but he still recognized Song Ling, and when he saw him walking up to him, he slowly showed a beautiful smile.
Song Ling knew that she was drunk, but she still couldn't help but itch in her heart.
I had to wrap her in a cloak and carry her back to the house, listening to her talking nonsense upside down along the way, occasionally calling one or two sentences, 'Song Ling' and 'Ruohui'.
When she called 'Ruohui', Song Ling's heart trembled, and a greedy mouth slowly cracked.
She should call herself Ruohui, not some unfamiliar and indifferent captain.
When he returned home, the sky was already full of bright stars on the top, and he entered through the side door, and no one noticed.
There is always thick or shallow incense in the women's boudoir, but there is no habit of burning incense, and it also has the taste of rouge gouache.
But there is no room for water chestnuts, but the bed mattress exudes a faint fragrance of soaphorn.
Song Ling knew that he should leave quickly, and it was really not a gentleman's job to stay here, but the water chestnut held on to the corner of his clothes tightly and said that he would not let go of anything.
Song Ling was afraid of hurting her, and she didn't dare to rub her hands hard, so she could only sit on the edge of the bed and look at her cute appearance with squinting eyes and blushing face.
I heard her say that she practiced hard in the past, scolded her colleagues who had robbed her of her credit in the past, and said that she wanted to eat butterfly cakes made of rosin.
Song Ling responded one by one, saying that she would be angry for her, and said that she would write a letter to Song Zhi to ask for it.
Water chestnut has never been treated so smoothly since it was a child?
I just thought I was dreaming! Since it's in a dream, there's nothing you can't say.
So, Song Ling heard her say again, "Ruohui, I like you so much." ”
"I've secretly liked you since a long, long time ago."
When he was in the sand nest before, he said his heart to the water chestnut, and the water chestnut just jumped up and hugged Song Ling, but he didn't say such a thing.
Song Ling's heart was boiling, and she kissed her on the water chestnut lips.
The water chestnut was still thinking about it and stopped thinking about it, and it stopped at once.
The two didn't know how long they had been intimate, Song Ling straightened up and saw that the water chestnut had fallen asleep.
Song Ling really couldn't cry or laugh, so she could only cover the quilt for her, kiss her lightly on the forehead, and then reluctantly leave.
The dream of water chestnut slept at the wrong time.
When she woke up, it was already daylight. At this time on weekdays, it is time for Ru'er to finish a set of punches.
She got dressed in a panic, but saw the finch come with breakfast.
Qi'er was originally a maid in the palace, and Song Zhi asked her to follow the water chestnut to the west, and the water chestnut in the province taught Confucianism so hard every day, and she had to take care of the trivial things by herself.
Que'er smiled shyly and said to her, "Girl, Captain Du asked me to tell you that today he took the little boy to the martial arts field, and you can rest for a day." ”
Water chestnut only then recalled yesterday's incident, she never forgot when she was drunk, this time, water chestnut can be regarded as annoyed with her own problem.
How did he block himself in the tavern and get himself drunk.
How did he not use light work, and walked back step by step with his own back.
How did you patiently coax yourself and listen to yourself talk nonsense......
Oops!
The water chestnut covered his face and couldn't speak for a long time!
The finch is blinded, and she and the water chestnut used to see each other every day, but I have never seen her twist so weird.
She has always been a clumsy person, and she can only ask, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Do you not like to eat this salty rice porridge? ”
Water chestnut quickly shook his head, blushed, and said, "No, it's okay." ”
After serving the rice porridge, he ate it in a big gulp, fortunately, the bird knew that the water chestnut was not a slow and logical person, and the porridge was warm, otherwise it would not be burned?
After eating a bowl of porridge, the side dishes on the table did not move at all, and the finch left in a daze with the bowl and chopsticks.
The water chestnut was flustered, full of discomfort, and walked along the yard, but unfortunately, he met the Lin family.
The Lin family was polite to the water chestnut, knowing that she was not a maidservant, but Shen Baiyan's subordinate, how could she be polite?
It's just that she eats too much beef and mutton, and she is used to being in love with fire, and these days she has two mouth sores the size of little fingers, which are painful and uncomfortable.
In this way, the mood was naturally not very good, and he didn't have a good face in front of Song Ling, let alone in front of the water chestnut, he just raised his eyebrows and left.
This is nothing, but who called the water chestnut to hide that matter in his heart!
Lin's attitude made her even more frightened, and she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for herself.
Ru'er came back from the martial arts field and came to look for water chestnuts with a bag of mutton buns given by the barracks chef.
Don't look at this bun, don't pay attention to the 'thin skin and big stuffing eighteen folds' in the Beijing restaurant.
But, the taste is really amazing!
The two were eating buns on the roof and talking.
Ru'er was very sharp-eyed, pointed to Song Ling, who was strolling around outside the courtyard, and said, "Huh? Why is Daddy here? Why didn't he come in? ”
Ru'er doesn't know anything! The water chestnut is already blushing, so he doesn't admit himself!
"Who, who knows him." Water chestnut stammered.
Ru'er saw that Song Ling had wandered for a long time, but he had left again, and he was even more puzzled.
When I turned my head, I saw that the water chestnut was red as if it had been cooked, which was even more strange.
Although Ru'er is steady, his temperament is not yet delicate to that point, just like when he saw Bao'er feeding Xia Fan that day, he was just a little strange, and he didn't think about other places.
However, it is a stubborn stone, and there will be a day when it will be enlightened.
What's more, Ru'er is not a stubborn stone.
The strange situation between his father and water chestnut went through his mind, and he finally had some recollection, and opened his mouth to say: "Sister water chestnut, you ......
Before Ru'er could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
"We don't have anything!" Water chestnut said categorically.
Ru'er said a little sadly, "No wonder Daddy has never dared to come in, it seems that he is afraid of you." ”
Water chestnut didn't expect Ru'er to react like this, seeing his drooping little face, he couldn't help but ask, "I, me and him, you, don't you mind?" ”
"Aunt Water Chestnut, you are the one I don't mind the most!" Ru'er changed her words in an instant, and put the water chestnut in the position of the elder.
The water chestnut looked at his sincere and pure little face, and finally smiled comfortably.
At this time, Song Ling turned back again, holding a gadget in her hand, and she couldn't see what it was.
This time he pushed the door open and entered, and in a moment he came out of the room, looking around like a fly.
Ru'er had never seen Song Ling look so unserious, so she laughed with a snort, and Song Ling followed the prestige and saw the two of them sitting on the roof, and instantly laughed.
He smiled, as if all these years had passed in vain, and he was still the same young man he was at the beginning.
The water chestnut's heart was beating fast, and when he saw him flying up, he sat down beside Ru'er, and asked Ru'er if the bun was delicious, and at the same time secretly handed over a ring from behind.
It's the same as his own bamboo-patterned ebony ring, just slightly smaller.
Before the water chestnut could think about it, his hand had already stretched out involuntarily.
Now that she has taken it, she is no longer hypocritical, and simply puts a set on her fingers.
Ru'er didn't notice the secret between the two adults, but for some reason, he remembered his mother's gentle smiling face, and a soft object suddenly fell on his shoulder, and when he turned his head, he was afraid that the roof was windy, so he had prepared a cloak for him early.
Ru'er shrank into Song Ling's arms and smiled at the water chestnut.
