Chapter Forty-Six: The Happy Life in the Barracks
When I woke up in the morning, there was no one around. I rubbed my sour eyes, looked at the tent like a dream, pinched my face, it didn't hurt very much, and then I pinched it hard, it hurt, and finally made sure that this was not a dream, and everything that happened yesterday was not a dream.
Wow, I really escaped from the Eastern Wu Dynasty! It's not their pawn anymore! I jumped for joy.
"You'er, what's so happy?" Hu Jingfeng didn't wear armor today, he was dressed in black, and his figure looked more slender. He's ...... It's a little unfamiliar, but it's really good-looking, I steadied my ground, almost stunned, remembering what he just asked, "I'm glad I finally don't have to be someone else's pawn." ”
But unexpectedly saw Hu Jingfeng's distressed eyes, he put down the food in his hand, sighed, and took my hand, "You'er, just let me protect you in the future?" "Those long, narrow eyes, dark and dazzling.
I looked at him in a daze, and his expression at this time suddenly reminded me of Xiao Er, who was going to take me away in the palace at that time, and at that time, Xiao Er's eyes were like this.
Shaking my head, seeing his eyes dim as if they had suddenly lost their light, I explained, "I don't dare to trust people easily anymore, so I-"
The body was hugged into one of his arms, and he sighed, "I know, so I don't force you, and...... Even if you don't agree, I will still protect you, and I will always protect you...... It's like you protected me when I was a child......"
Yes? When I was a child, I protected him?
"When did I protect you when I was a child?" I looked at him curiously.
Someone pinched his face again, "I knew you forgot." After pinching, the corners of his mouth curled, and his eyes were dark and shining again, "That was the first time I ran out of Flowerless Town to play outside, although I was very young at that time, I was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers." While running around in the woods, I met three children who were taller than me......"
Suddenly a little boy sitting on the ground crying appeared in his mind, with a fat face, small eyes and a small mouth, surrounded by three tall children, searching his clothes and pulling out a lot of candy. That's right, those three people are Huaxia, Xiaohua, and Amu.
Candy? I ran over as fast as I could, intending to let them share a little of my food, but when they saw me coming, they ran away like a puff of smoke...... I finally know each other, and I don't know if I forget it. I hated it, and I didn't care about anyone on the ground who had stopped crying, so I went after them, shouting "Don't run, don't run!" ”
"Hahaha......" I couldn't suppress my laughter anymore, it turned out that the fat boy was him, it turned out ...... He thought I was saving him......
"What are you laughing at?" Hu Jingfeng frowned, looked at me laughing very unhappily, and said after a while: "Did you remember something?" ”
I rubbed my eyes that were about to laugh out of tears, and met his expectant gaze, not knowing whether to tell him the truth, "Silly Jingfeng, I chased them just to let them share a little candy from me, and they ran away when they saw me, just because they were afraid that I would rob them of their candy." "Tell him, and I don't want him to do this to me because I saved him.
Hu Jingfeng tilted his head and thought about it, and then thought about it again, I looked at him with some worry, afraid that he would suddenly treat me as a living person.
"I see, at the time I wondered why they were afraid of you when you were so skinny, and they were still three people." Hu Jingfeng suddenly realized, and then looked at me again, "But."
In fact, no matter what your original intention was at that time, I was saved in the end, so I think that if you save me, you will save me. He smiled slyly, and I laughed helplessly: Isn't this what I want?
If I didn't know those three kids, would I really save them? The answer is: no. That's the truth, because I can't beat them.
"Alright, alright, let's eat." He said suddenly, and then muttered to himself: "It should be cold, I'll find someone to warm it up again." ”
I grabbed his hand, shook my head, and smiled, "It's okay, I don't like to eat too hot." "The barracks are no more expensive than other places, cooking is more troublesome, food and grass are more important than anything, and I am so delicate. After speaking, he picked up a bowl of porridge and began to eat, as well as two side dishes, one of which was a wild vegetable, and the other was a few small fish, but I didn't expect to be able to eat fish in the barracks. Wild vegetables taste good, and so does fish...... Delicious!
"Hiccup!" I patted my bulging belly.
"Full?" He looked at me amusedly, "Whose princess would be like you?" I think you're afraid that you won't be able to get married, so why don't I be wronged? With that, he came over.
"Hiccup!" It's a burp in his face that is getting closer and closer, and he still wants to tease me, don't you know what I'm going to do the most?
He covered his nose and immediately jumped far away, muttering to himself, "Does this dish taste so big?" How I didn't find out before. ”
"Hahaha......" I laughed again, this fool, of course this wild vegetable is not so powerful, I just ...... I just let out a fart. But I won't tell him about this kind of thing, hahaha!
After a few days, I watched him sometimes train soldiers, and when the soldiers were finished, they would sometimes take me around and sometimes take me to catch fish. There was a creek nearby and he said he caught the last fish I ate here.
I sat on the shore and watched him take his spear, piercing it one by one, and wondered how long the fish in the brook would be eaten by him.
"Hu Jingfeng, you wouldn't have deliberately chosen this weapon to make it easier to catch fish, right?" It occurred to me on a whim.
"How do you know?" He said so, and went down, and when he raised his spear, there was another fish on it.
I was dumbfounded, I didn't expect to be fooled by me. After taking his little fish, he couldn't help but worry: "Are you going to eat all the fish in this stream?" The rest are so small. ”
He carried his spear and went up to the shore, "I don't usually eat much, isn't this your coming?" Originally, there were no fish in this creek, and this was also after the rain that suddenly appeared. He looked at me funny, and I stuck out my tongue, because I had misunderstood him.
"Hu-" Suddenly a soldier ran over, looked at me, and did not continue. Hu Jingfeng nodded, and then he continued: "There is a holy decree from the palace. ”
"Hmm." Hu Jingfeng didn't seem to be too surprised, and slowly got dressed, until he tied the last belt, he said, "I'll take the order now, you can help here...... Princess Oude washes the fish before escorting her back. ”
"I'll go too." I said without thinking about it.
He seemed to sigh, "Not today, just wait for me to come back." "Dark eyes looked at me, and I knew he had made up his mind not to let me go.
"Well, I'll wait for you to come back." I looked down and said, and when I looked up again, he was gone.
"Does Princess Oude remember being here?" A voice came from behind him.
I looked back at a black mole in the corner of his eye, it was familiar, especially the inexplicable hostility on his face...... Come to think of it!
At that time, he said: "Princess, you will soon be the concubine of the enemy country, it is better to go out less, not only for your own good, but also to avoid disturbing others." ”
It's really him!
I admit that what he said is true, but these words can be said to me well, and you don't have to look at me with the eyes of the enemy. Now he doesn't look at me like an enemy, but he doesn't have any kindness.
"Do you hate me?" I couldn't help but blurt it out.
He was surprised, probably because he didn't expect me to ask so bluntly, and then sneered, "Princess Oude is not as stupid as rumored." ”
Automatically ignoring the urge to roll his eyes at him, he continued to ask, "Why?" I remember I hadn't seen you before, and I couldn't have offended you somewhere. ”
"You're right, we really have no grievances, it's just that I hate royalty." He sighed, his gaze drifting into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking or remembering.
This is strange, people who hate the royal family, but fight in the barracks, "Then why do you still come to the barracks to work for the emperor?" ”
He suddenly sneered, as if he had heard a big joke, "I am working hard for the country and the Xiqi country, what is the matter with the emperor, and ......" Then he turned his head and looked at me deeply, "If it weren't for admiring General Hu, if it weren't for General Hu's kindness to me, I wouldn't talk so much to you." ”
"Poof!" I didn't know why I suddenly laughed, maybe it was because of his last sentence, it turned out that he hated me for this reason, since Hu Jingfeng was kind to him, then he shouldn't be doing anything to me...... I finally put my mind at ease.
"What are you laughing at?" You could tell he was holding back a wave of anger.
I glared at the barrel on the ground, signaling that there were a lot of fish waiting for him in it. As a result, his face was full of confusion, and he frowned, and cautiously walked into the barrel...... Are you still afraid that I will harm him?
When he saw the fish still alive inside, he finally remembered something and glared at me fiercely, as if to blame me for not telling him earlier. I laughed to myself, is he himself only hating me and forgetting to get down to business, or do you blame me?
He picked up the barrel and ran to the river and began to kill the fish, to remove the scales, to remove the dirt, to wash the fish...... Although the movements are rusty, the speed does not dare to slow down for a moment......
A round of red sun in the distance is disappearing between the mountains...... The sunlight sparkled in the microwave of the stream, like a red sunfish......
I sat on the ground, swaying my legs crossed, and leisurely looked at someone busy in front of me, and the sun setting in the distance...... This kind of life of thinking about nothing and nothing is about to come to an end......
