Chapter 339: The Story
Xiao Ye smiled and saluted Huo Roufeng, and said, "The fifth master instructed the slave maid to serve the ninth master, and then read a book to the ninth master." ”
"Studying?" Huo Roufeng's eyes widened.
Xiao Ye said: "It was the Ninth Master who asked Master Huo to write it just now, and after a while, the Ninth Master fell asleep, and the slave maid read it to the Ninth Master." ”
"Huo Yan wrote? When did he write it? Huo Roufeng was curious. Zhanhuai knew that she had to listen to a book before going to bed, which was not strange, but it was strange that Huo Qingzhou wrote it here.
"I just wrote it, and I wrote less than a cup of tea." Xiao Ye said.
Huo Roufeng raised her eyebrows, how could she forget, Huo Qingzhou has the talent to be a champion, write a story, it's not a hand-to-hand capture.
Because this courtyard was prepared for Mrs. Huo, the steward in Zhuangzi was a discerning person, so he deliberately asked people to dismantle the big kang and replace it with a frame bed that southerners are accustomed to.
Xiao Ye served Huo Roufeng to wash her face, and combed her hair through, Huo Roufeng only started to grow her head in the past two years, and last year she finally tied up two small buns, but now they are scattered, and they are only sparsely hanging down to her shoulders.
"Jiu Ye's hair is so good, black and soft." Xiao Ye complimented.
Huo Roufeng cherishes her hair very much, but unfortunately it doesn't grow fast enough, and now it's just a little better than the previous bald boy image.
She asked Xiao Ye: "When your fifth master is as old as me, is his hair good?" ”
Xiao Ye smiled: "The slave and maid are not clear, and the slave and maid can only occasionally see the fifth master at the old lady's place." There are big rules in the Guogong Mansion, the fifth master moved to the front yard early, there is not even a mother-in-law in the yard, from the housekeeper to the cleaning, all of them are men, the slave and maid remember, once the old lady called the fifth master to drink soup, and saw that the fifth master's clothes were torn and no one found it, so he wore in and out. ”
Huo Roufeng wanted to laugh, the little son of the dignified Guogong Mansion, no one paid attention to his tattered clothes, and the control of the Fujian Guogong Mansion on his descendants was really outrageous.
But after thinking about it, she felt sad again, the reason why the Zhan family is like this is to hone the children's will from an early age...... The children of the Zhan family are going to the battlefield after all.
And now Zhanhuai has only one purpose in doing all this, that is, to personally lead the troops to fight King Rong, so that the Zhanjia army can justifiably drive from the coast to the Central Plains.
Maybe one day, Zhanhuai will also throw his head and spill his blood on the battlefield, like his ancestors.
Huo Roufeng couldn't laugh anymore, she said to Xiao Ye: "I'm going to go to bed, you can read to me." ”
The children's eyes are clear and their expressions are simple, so the loneliness on their faces cannot be hidden.
Xiao Ye saw the helplessness and sadness in Huo Roufeng's eyes, and she regretted that she was about to talk about the fifth master when he was a child. When she was in the mansion, whenever the old lady talked about this, the look in her eyes was the same as Huo Jiuye's, but she felt a little more pity.
Huo Roufeng lay on the bed, Xiao Ye tucked the quilt for her, brought the brazier to a little place, sat on the pestle next to the bed, took out two pieces of paper folded into Fang Sheng from his arms, and read them word by word.
This story is told about a young hero and his wife, who defeated the enemy several times on the snow-capped mountains outside the pass......
This is a story that Huo Roufeng has always liked, but she was too tired today, and she listened attentively at first, but after a few words, she fell asleep in a daze.
She woke up in the morning and remembered for a moment where it was.
"Ninth Master, you're awake." A crisp voice came from her ears, and Huo Roufeng looked sideways, but it was not Xiao Ye, but someone she knew.
"Hua Sanniang? Why are you here? ”
Huo Roufeng hadn't seen Hua Sanniang for a few days, but fortunately, Zhanhuai told her that Hua Sanniang had gone on an errand, and she wasn't worried.
Hua Sanniang smiled like a flower, even in the face of Huo Roufeng, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were all tender and sweet.
"The slave maid is a Zhuangzi who entered at dawn, and the fifth master said that the slave maid has also been by your side for a while, and he is familiar with your daily life, so he asked the slave and maid to come over and replace the little night girl." Hua Sanniang said.
As she spoke, she walked to the side of the bed, helped Huo Roufeng sit up, and quickly took her clothes over, and Huo Roufeng's eyes fell on her hands.
"San Niangzi, what's wrong with your hand? Is this frozen? ”
Hua Sanniang said with a smile: "It's not as good as enjoying happiness in Shuangjing Hutong outside, killing a few fish in ice water and getting frostbite." ”
Killing fish?
Huo Roufeng didn't dwell on this topic, since she remembered that there were a group of mysterious female chazi under Mrs. Gao in her previous life, she knew what Hua Sanniang and Bai Shuixian were doing.
This kind of thing shouldn't be asked by her, and besides, she doesn't want to get into these troubled waters.
"There is a kind of chilblain cream in Sishitang that is said to be very useful, if you go back to Shuangjing Hutong, ask Dr. Xiao Han for a box, if you don't go back, buy one yourself when you pass by Sishitang." Huo Roufeng said.
Hua Sanniang said with a smile: "Thank you Ninth Master, it's just that the slave maid still doesn't want to cure the chilblain for a while, with this, it is easier for the slave and maid to act." ”
Yes, most of them are begging for a living outside in the cold winter months, with her hands, even if she is like a flower, but those who have seen her will believe that she is a woman who does rough work in the market.
Who would be suspicious of such a woman, not to mention, this woman is not only pleasing to the eye, but also very likable when she speaks.
After having breakfast with Zhanhuai, Zhanhuai urged her to go back, Huo Roufeng didn't want to stay anymore, she didn't return overnight, although Zhang Xuan went back to report the news, but my sister would inevitably worry about her.
It wasn't until she sat in the carriage back to the capital that Huo Roufeng remembered the story that Xiaoye told her last night.
It seems that there is a heroine in the story, dressed in red and with a red tasseled spear.
She couldn't remember anything else.
When she met Hua Sanniang in the morning, she only cared about talking to Hua Sanniang, and forgot to find Xiao Ye to come over, and asked for the two pages written by Huo Qingzhou.
However, this thought was just a thought, and a wave of fatigue hit, and Huo Roufeng fell asleep in the carriage.
It wasn't until she remembered the voice of someone calling her again that Huo Roufeng woke up from a nap, and it was Cai Qin and Cai Wei who were calling her, and it turned out that the carriage had entered Shuangjing Hutong.
Cai Qin is a first-class girl, so she didn't have to let her pick up people, but she didn't worry, she came over with Cai Wei, if Huo Roufeng still couldn't wake up, she was ready to carry the ninth master back to the room.
Huo Roufeng just fell asleep, and at this time they were all awake, full of energy, and when they saw Cai Qin, they asked, "Is there anything going on in the house?" ”
Cai Qin said: "Lord Huo is here again, it is the champion and the first Lord Huo, the one who came last time, tall and thin." ”
