Chapter 50: The Water Moon City
Starting from Luzhou, the first few days are still ten miles of spring breeze, and the grass is right, and the more you drive to the northwest, the more bleak and desolate the scenery is. In the early morning of the eighth day, Yu Zijin woke up in the carriage and opened the curtains to feel that the sand was blowing, and the shadow of the yellow sand of the desert in the distance could be faintly seen.
Looking back at the rising sun, the vast expanse, the dust and wild horses.
A bear paw with dried meat stretched out in front of the car window, and Helian Xiongxiong rode on a tall horse and grinned: "Sister, eat some to cushion your stomach first, and when you arrive in Shuiyue City in half an hour, let's go eat roast whole sheep." ”
Yu Zijin stretched out his hand to take it, knowing that this jerky Yancui's sister-in-law gave him the marinated meat herself, the taste was excellent, Helian Xiongxiong easily did not give it to others, except for her along the way, no one has this treatment!
"Brother Yi, every time I eat up the jerky made for you by my sister-in-law, I can't help it."
Helian waved his bear's paws and said in a loud voice, "Our brothers and sisters are blessed to share together, what do you care!" Your sister-in-law went back to her parents' house, and when we came back from Shuiyue City, she would almost come back, and it really happened that my old bear's jerky was half a sack left, and she came back just in time to marinate a few more sacks! ”
The world of foodies is always incomprehensible, and Meng Chengfang is very worried, "Xiong Xiong, are you marrying your sister-in-law for your sister-in-law or for jerky?" Every sentence is inseparable from eating, how many sacks are there? Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will be tired and come back to repair you? ”
"Do you want to care? My old bear's mother-in-law is willing to give me old bear, can you manage it? It's called mood, do you understand? You really deserve to be a bachelor for more than 20 years, and no one wants it yet! As far as you are boring and thin-skinned, which girl do you think you can chase? Is it difficult to ask other girls to chase you? ”
Helian Xiongxiong pointed at Meng Cheng and let go of hysteria, and said that Meng Cheng was so red and red that he couldn't deal with it, and drove the horse to chase Yu Wenzheng and He Beilan in front, he really shouldn't be sarcastic!
"Hey, this kid is ashamed again?" Helian was bored for a while.
Looking at the back of the deserted escape, Yu Zijin didn't expect that Meng Chengfang was not only as famous as her cousin in archery, but she was still shy and shy, and her temperament was pure, "Brother Yi, don't you always be fierce!" You see, General Meng is ashamed of you! ”
Helian waved his arms, "Cut!" This stinky boy is like a piece of wood all day long, he is a lot older, and he has no calculations in his heart, so don't you worry about him for my brother! In the past, it was him and the lord two pieces of wood, but now there is only one wood left for him, so he doesn't feel lonely? ”
Yu Zijin took the handkerchief handed by Fangcao and wiped his mouth, thinking about it very funny in his heart, if Yu Wenzheng knew that someone called wood behind his back, what would his expression be?
"Huh? I think the grass girl is good! Have you ever promised someone? Noticing the herbs in the car, Helian was a matchmaker, and Yu Zijin couldn't help but set his eyes on the herbs.
I saw that Fangcao was at a loss for a while, her pink cheeks were red, and she said nervously: "General Helian, don't joke about slaves, how can slaves and maids be worthy of General Meng, you should consider other young ladies!" With that, he hid in the car and didn't look at Helian again.
Yu Zijin looked at the grass, slender and beautiful, mild temperament, poetry and books, and danced with a good sword, and was at a flowery age, it was necessary to be worthy of Mengchengfang! As for identity, there is no distinction between high and low, and Meng Chengfang is a bold man, so naturally he will not rest assured about this.
Chong wanted to be a matchmaker but touched the nail and was distressed Helian Xiong Nunu's mouth, pointing to Meng Chengfang in front of him, Yu Zijin whispered: "His nod is the point!" ”
"Oh! Right! Helian patted his head and ran forward with a hard grip on the horse's belly, this time no one wanted to stop him from telling this kid!
Water Moon City is located at the junction of the wasteland and the desert, the grass and trees are withered, the climate is very cold, although it is April, but the spring breeze is not over, and the sun is still cold and desolate here.
Under the conditions of extremely bitter cold climate, Shuiyue City is conceived by a pool of water from heaven, the terrain here is low and flat, attached to Rongya Mountain, after the severe winter, the snow of Rongya Mountain melts and gathers here, forming a crescent-shaped lake next to Shuiyue City, and Shuiyue City is also named after it.
After nightfall, Shuiyue City is very lively, but all the merchants who come and go from the east and west to trade gather here, and those who do not pass by are bound to come here to live in the store because they do not have a village house, and the people of all countries and ethnic groups are different. In the street market, market vendors are noisy along the streets, selling bizarre goods, and gradually adding casinos, jugglers, green houses, wine shops, etc., delicious wines from all over the world and exotic beauties, dazzling.
Yu Zijin walked in the crowd with a white gauze covering face and a tight grip on Yu Wenzheng's hand, and just saw a vendor slaughtering sheep and skinning them on the street, drinking sheep blood raw, which really made her vomit so hard that she seemed to be able to smell blood until now. Glancing at Yu Wen Zheng fiercely, she was not so delicate in the past, it must have been this way He said that there were tigers and beasts to scare her in order not to let her run around!
"What's wrong?" Yu Wenzheng felt that Yu Zijin's face under the veil seemed to be unsightly, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”
Yuwen Zheng is measured, although Yu Zijin is pampered, but not to the point of falling down when he sees the wind, he still supports the 100,000 Hou army that year, and he is not so knowledgeable that he just watches people slaughter sheep and drink blood.
Yu Zijin wanted to speak, but suddenly his heart swelled with nausea, and he pulled off his veil and helped Yu Wenzheng to spit out some filth, which really scared everyone.
"How? Is it better? Yu Wenzheng wiped the corners of his mouth for Yu Zijin with his cuffs without disgust, "It's all my fault, you have been in the carriage for these days, and your body must be uncomfortable, but I took you to see those scenes again, are you better?" ”
Yu Zijin nodded, "It's much better to spit it out, but my stomach is empty again!" ”
The implication is that I'm hungry......
Yu Wenzheng, Meng Chengfang and others had no choice but to return to the inn for dinner, probably because all the food in the stomach was vomited out, and because the car and horses had not eaten well for days, Yu Zijin's appetite was exceptionally good tonight, and he actually used two more bowls of barley and almond porridge in a row, plus all these days, and it made Fangcao suspicious in his heart.
Yuwen Zheng is certainly thoughtful, but the man is really not very careful about some things, Yu Zijin is still young, and there are some who have not paid attention, Fangcao has to cheer up and pay attention carefully, she has been trained very well since she was a child, what she should know is still known, there is no serious doctor in Shuiyue City, thinking that it is better to wait until she returns to Luzhou and find a doctor to check the pulse of Mrs.
Meng Chengfang has been annoyed by Helian Xiongxiong, who is enthusiastic about being a matchmaker for him in recent days, the girl Fangcao is a powerful person next to his wife, and he can't find a daughter-in-law and can't rob people with his wife! As soon as he heard that Helian Xiongxiong was going to go to the street with Yu Wenzheng to investigate, Meng Chengfang directly took over the job of staying in the inn to buy and take care of it, and only looked far away from Helian Xiongxiong.
Although he avoided Helian Xiongxiong, Meng Chengfang found that he was bound to face Fangcao when he stayed, not to mention whether people intentionally or not, Shan Helian Xiongxiong shouted all day long, and he was inevitably embarrassed to meet Fangcao.
Beckoning the entourage to carry the freshly slaughtered and washed lamb into the kitchen, Meng Chengfang came to Fangcao with a large paper bag of supplements, and tried to squeeze out a natural smile, "Fangcao girl, this is some of the supplements I bought for my wife, she has not looked good recently, please stew for her." ”
Fangcao was sitting at the stone table in the backyard of the inn peeling walnuts, and hurriedly got up when she saw the visitor, "Yes...... Fangcao knows that there is General Law. ”
Meng Cheng's palms were a little sweaty, and thousands of troops were not afraid, isn't she just a girl now? I hate myself for not being angry, "That, I don't know what to buy, you see if these things can be made, you can keep what you need, I will take it to Xiongxiong to eat if you don't want it, and I will buy it if there is anything missing." ”
"Oh!"
Fangcao always lowered her head, and hurriedly went to the paper bag to look through the words, she was tall, curved, and almost as tall as Meng Chengfang's nose, the two of them stood together very right, even Meng Chengfang had this feeling for a moment, lowering his eyelids, he could see that Fangcao's face seemed to be red, no wonder, he felt that his face was also hot at the moment! Not to mention other girls! Bear, you're so strong!
Ginseng, bird's nest, deer antler velvet, and white fungus are all excellent supplements, and the herbs are left without hesitation after being picked.
Looking at some red dates, longan, longan and other things that seemed to be disliked in the paper bag, Meng Cheng said shyly: "I heard that red dates and longan are also very nourishing for women's bodies."
It is very nourishing and good, but red dates, longan and the like are hot, especially longan, and pregnant people are easy to move blood if they eat more, resulting in slippery tires.
Fangcao didn't take it because of this, and she wasn't sure if she didn't check her wife's pulse, but it was always wrong to be careful, but how should I tell this person about this? She wasn't quite sure.
"Grass Girl?"
"Huh?" Fangcao raised her head suddenly, and then suddenly lowered her head, "This...... Madame is not fit to eat this recently, so you better keep it for yourself, general! ”
"Huh?" A big man was holding red dates and longan to make up for his body, Meng Chengfang felt that he couldn't accept it, and he had to be disgusted by Helian Xiongxiong.
"Then you can keep it, you are also a girl's family, keep it to make up for yourself." After thinking about it again and again, Meng Chengfang can be regarded as coming up with a compromise method.
Before Fangcao could react, Meng Chengfang had already stuffed the paper bag in her arms, and hurriedly stopped the person who was about to walk, "More...... Thanks General, that ...... What if the ...... forgot what to say?
Meng Chengfang stopped and turned around, with a flush on his face, "Is there anything else?" ”
Fangcao can be regarded as having regained his train of thought, and pointed to the cook who was cleaning up the lamb in the kitchen, "Madame has a bad stomach in recent days, and she wants to eat something light, and Si Shao must also accompany her, this lamb is still General Meng, you and General Helian will take it to roast the whole sheep." "Eating too much mutton helps heat and hurt yin, which is also not good for pregnant people.
"Oh. I know. ”
"Also," Fang Cao called out to the departing people again, "and the border residents raise more cattle and sheep, please ask the general to help the slaves and maids find some goat milk." ”
"Well, I see, is there anything else you need?" Meng Chengfang can be regarded as being able to boldly face the herb at a distance of a few steps, and at this distance, the herb is soft and very eye-catching.
"It's nothing, thank you General, General go slowly." Fangcao continued to bow her head and sit down and do her own thing, no longer looking at Meng Chengfang, until she heard the man's footsteps walking away, then she raised her head and rubbed her bright red cheeks, looked at the straight and slender figure, and remembered Helian's words that day, and her mind did not calm down for a long time.
