Chapter 11: Overnight
Today is the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, she only bought two pork legs from the market in the east of the village yesterday, and today she added some stewed meat ingredients to stew in the pot, glad that she was passing through a peaceful and prosperous world, and did not have to suffer from the chaos. Of course, there are also some dark and crooked winds, such as the Zhang Lingxin who took the exam to raise people that day, the examiner is a greedy person, if you don't make money, then the poor Xiucai will not want to be a lifter for the rest of his life.
But this is a minority after all, most of what Ruan Yunsi sees is a prosperous peaceful year, just like these days, the small village is full of laughter and laughter, and occasionally there are a few second kicking sounds, which sets off the atmosphere of a New Year extremely warmly. Let her, who has no feeling for the New Year in modern times, can't help but start looking forward to it, although there was neither the Internet nor the Spring Festival Gala in ancient times.
Wangwang......
Rhubarb suddenly screamed, and then Ruan Yunsi heard a knock on the door, she was shocked, what was going on secretly? Who else is coming to me at this time? It's dark, and Yun Niang shouldn't have so much strength.
Just as he was hesitating, he saw Xiao Hei, who had grown into a half-grown dog, jumped out with an arrow step, and his body was much more vigorous than his increasingly bloated mother. Then it barked at the door.
"Blackie."
Ruan Yunsi screamed, Xiao Hei stepped aside, she came to the door with a lantern here, and before she could speak, she heard a somewhat familiar voice: "Miss Ruan, is it you?" ”
"Who?"
Ruan Yunsi was taken aback, this title was definitely not used by the people in the village. She lifted the lantern, and in the faint light, a handsome and gentle face was revealed, and then the voice said with a little surprise: "I'm Su Mingxi, has Miss Ruan forgotten?" ”
"Boom", if it weren't for the concentration that she had cultivated in the past few years, Ruan Yunsi might have sat on the snow at this time: how could this person meet him again? No, he came to the door this time, right......
Ruan Yunsi's heart beat violently, she forced herself to calm down and smiled slightly, and said softly: "Why did Gongzi Su come over at this time?" How did you know I lived here? Is there anything that came to me? ”
"Don't misunderstand, girl, my entourage and I are passing through here, because we are greedy for the road, so we missed the accommodation, I don't know if the girl is convenient to take us in for the night?" Su Mingxi smiled slightly, and when he saw Ruan Yunsi's embarrassed expression on his face, he said softly: "I have knocked on the doors of a few houses along the way, but what happened to Xu is this, or the people in this village like to be quiet, but no one responded." I'm also helpless......" He didn't say any more, but Ruan Yunsi already understood what he meant in her heart.
Reluctantly opened the street door, Ruan Yunsi knew in her heart the reason why Su Mingxi couldn't stay overnight, generally speaking, the villagers were hospitable, if there were people who missed the stay, even if they didn't give money, they would definitely be warmly received. Who knows that after the autumn harvest, some people who come from nowhere, often after they spend the night, some farmers will lose things inexplicably, sometimes it is a string or two of money, sometimes it is a few catties of bacon, sometimes it is two chickens and ducks. Later, some people came back from the city, saying that they didn't know which small country in the south had been plagued, and many refugees poured into the Great Wu country, and gradually flowed to the north, like Tartars to rob, these people loved to steal chickens and dogs, so now the villagers no longer refuse to take in outsiders for the night, and even the hunters, who have always been hospitable, are now a lot more vigilant.
After all, there was a life-saving grace, and the snow in the sky didn't stop, how could Ruan Yunsi be embarrassed to turn away these people under the pretext of being lonely men and widows? And Su Mingxi had a few entourages behind him leading the horses, and when the horses were settled, as soon as they entered the house, they stomped their feet and complained: "This ghost weather, it was fine in the middle of the afternoon, how did I know that the north wind would blow later, and it would snow so heavily, I knew that I should have found an inn to live in Lin Liangcheng." ”
While talking, he came up again to help Su Mingxi take off the big hat, but he heard him lightly instruct: "You guys be quiet, listen to Miss Ruan's arrangement." After speaking, he bowed to Ruan Yunsi and said: "It's really such weather, otherwise it won't cause this trouble to the girl, I wonder if the girl has an empty house here?" If not, it is better for us to make do all night on the earth than to sleep in the wilderness. ”
Ruan Yunsi thought to herself, you obviously saw that I had a house here, and you still said such things, it was really hypocritical. So he pointed to the left hand side and said softly: "That's the house where I spin threads in Suri, although there are some sundries, fortunately, there is still a kang, but there is no way to burn the fire, wait for a few soup women to warm up." ”
Su Mingxi hurriedly nodded and said, "We have our own Tang Pozi, so we don't have to worry about it." After speaking, he listened to the entourage next to him: "What does this smell like?" I'm drooling, but stew? Hehe, it just so happens that we haven't eaten yet......" Before he finished speaking, Su Mingxi snorted, and heard him say sharply: "We can have a place to stay, we are already grateful, how can we still have Longwangshu?" Don't you have any dry food in your bag? ”
Wang Biao saw that the other entourages didn't dare to make a sound, Ruan Yunsi didn't speak, he felt a little uncomfortable, and when he followed Su Mingxi into the room on the left, he leaned against the pillar and whispered: "Master, this road is full of dry food, the big guy's appetite is frozen into a lump of ice, anyway, the stewed meat in this pot can't be eaten by that girl, we have money, so we should buy her a few catties of cooked meat to eat, just give more money?" ”
Su Mingxi sighed and said: "This Ruan girl lives here alone, and a few of our big men broke in, if it weren't for the weather, there was really no way to sleep in the wilderness, let alone hurry, I said that I couldn't stay here at all, and it would ruin the reputation of others." This is why we saved her, otherwise it would be impossible to open this door when you are idle, and now that you have a place to live, you are content, and you still want to eat meat? Don't be greedy, this errand is beautiful, and when you return home, I will reward you and let you go out to eat and drink. ”
As soon as the four subordinates heard their own grandfather say this, even if they were hungry for insects, they couldn't say anything more, so they had to force themselves to suppress their desire to eat meat, took out dry food from their bags, sighed and gnawed.
Ruan Yunsi hasn't spoken since they came in, according to her thoughts, she can't get along with this Su Mingxi for old age, but the sky doesn't fulfill people's wishes, and sends people to her again and again. At this time, when he saw that the firewood under the stove was burned out, and only pieces of red charcoal remained, he closed the door of the stove, so that the heat would not leak out, and the kang in the bedroom could be hot until dawn.
