Chapter Twenty-Three: The Snail

After entering the vegetable and butcher shop, Yu Yu quickly bought some fresh pork belly, small green vegetables, green garlic sprouts, green onions, ginger and garlic, and saw that there was still some broken silver left, so he bought an old hen and spent all the money given by Ah Lan to buy vegetables.

Yu Yu held a vegetable basket in one hand, Qingcha carried a lively old hen, and the two laughed together and walked out of the vegetable and butcher shop and walked in the direction of the county government.

As soon as he walked past the Yuchuan bookstore, Yu Yu saw someone on the side of the road carrying a burden selling Sydney pears, and couldn't help but feel moved - Lin Jia's throat was swollen and sore, and her voice was hoarse, so she could buy some Sydney pears for him to cook pear water to drink!

Qingcha saw Yu Gardenia's eyes blazing and looked at the pear seller next to him, and couldn't help but smile: "Yu Gardenia, do you want to buy pears?" But we've already spent all the money Ah Lan gave! ”

"The second son has a sore throat, so I just gave him stewed pear water to drink," Yu Yu squinted his eyes and smiled, "You forgot, I still have a penny of broken silver!" ”

Qingcha was a little disapproving, and muttered: "Why spend our own money to buy pears for Childe......"

Yu Yu glanced at Qingcha with a smile, and said softly: "It's a child, and it's not someone else, why be so stingy?" ”

Although Qingcha still disagreed with it in his heart, it was not his own silver, so he didn't say anything, and followed Yuyu to buy pears with a pout.

Yu Yu put down the two baskets of vegetables, carefully selected six perfect large pears, and saw that there were still a few big red apples under the straw covered by the other burden, so he bought four more apples, and spent all the broken silver left over from the book.

After the vegetable basket was filled with pears and apples, it was obviously much heavier, and Qingcha and Yu Yu carried the heaviest vegetable basket and walked forward together.

Rao has Qingcha to help, and Yu Yu is still tired enough, but she has always been strong and does not take this little thing to heart.

As soon as Yu Yu and Qing Cha walked into the east door of the county ya, they saw the handsome Helian county lieutenant walking over with Wang Qingyu.

Yu Yu hurriedly pulled the tea to the side of the road and made way for the county lieutenant Helian.

Wang Qingyu followed behind Helian Shan, and when she saw that Yu Yu and Qing Cha, two delicate and timid girls, were actually carrying such a heavy thing, she couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and raised her eyes to look at Yu Yu, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

At this moment, Helian Shan in front of him said lightly: "Wang Qingyu, you go and help them send their things back to the county ya's house!" ”

Wang Qingyu's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, my lord!" ”

With Wang Qingyu's help, Yu Gardenia and Qingcha are much easier.

When he arrived at the door of the inner house, he saw Ah Chi coming out, Wang Qingyu said a few words of greeting, handed over the heavy object to Ah Chi, and prepared to leave.

Yu Yu and Qingcha hurriedly thanked the enthusiastic Wang Qingyu.

Ah Chi carried two baskets of vegetables, and couldn't help but say, "Why is it so heavy?" ”

Yu Yu smiled: "I bought some pears and apples, and stewed pear water for my son at night!" ”

Qingcha hurriedly said: "The silver for buying pears and apples is Yu Yu's own silver!" ”

Ah Chi heard this, and hurriedly said: "Yu Yu, wait a while, you can go to find Ah Lan to report!" ”

Yu Yu hurriedly said: "Forget it, this is what I want to buy myself, why bother!" ”

She has always been generous and generous, and she does not take these things to heart.

Hearing Yu Yu say this, Ah Chi didn't say anything, and walked to the kitchen of the inner house with two vegetable baskets first.

Yu Yu wrapped her hair in a headscarf, washed her hands and entered the kitchen, and with the assistance of Qingcha, she showed her skills and began to make the shredded pork pot noodles that the second son wanted to eat.

She is very organized, plans it in her mind, and then starts to be busy in an orderly manner.

Yu Yu first reconciled the noodles, covered them with a clean, damp cloth, and then began to cut the shredded meat.

At this time, Qingcha has already washed all the vegetables needed such as green vegetables and green garlic sprouts.

Yu Yu cut the green garlic sprouts, shredded green onions, shredded ginger and garlic slices for later use.

When the noodles are awake, Yu Yu begins to knead and roll the noodles, and then carefully cut out the noodles, which makes the tea start to burn.

After frying the shredded green onions, ginger and garlic slices in hot oil, Yu Yu put in the shredded meat and began to boil in the pot.

After the shredded meat was fried, she scooped the water into the pot and covered the pot.

In just two quarters of an hour, Yu Yu made a pot of fragrant pot noodles.

She served it in a bowl, sprinkled some chopped green garlic sprouts on it to make it fresh, and then looked at Qingcha with a smile: "Qingcha, you can send the noodles to Gongzi!" ”

Qingcha was too cowardly Lin Jia, so he begged: "Yuyi, you go, I'm afraid that the second son will ......."

Yu Yu was a little helpless, so she had to say, "I'll tell you when I come back!" ”

Qingcha folded her hands and shook it at Yuyu, which was very cute.

She has never been assertive, and her current wish is to follow Yu Yu all the time, so she would rather let Yu Yu do these work that comes out.

Seeing this, Yu Yu smiled and twisted Qingcha's chubby cheeks, took off the headscarf wrapped in her hair, and went to the main room with a bowl on a tray.

The lamp was lit in the dark bedroom of the landlord, and Lin Jia was leaning on the pillow and reading the file.

After Yu Yu went in, he quickly moved the small kang table on the couch in front of the window to the bed, and then put the covered bowl of noodles on the small kang table, lifted the lid of the bowl, and said with a smile: "Childe, please eat noodles!" ”

Lin Jia originally had no appetite, but when he smelled the aroma of the pot noodles, he couldn't help but feel a little hungry, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Yu, and saw that Yu Yu was looking at him, his heart warmed, and he silently picked up the chopsticks.

He picked a noodle with chopsticks and tasted it, and found that the noodles had a good taste.

Lin Jia scooped a mouthful of noodle soup with the silver spoon prepared by Yu Yu, and found that the soup was rich, and his appetite was immediately boosted, so he rarely ate more, and finally finished eating all the bowls of noodles.

Yu Yu waited on the side, seeing Lin Jia eating so deliciously, she was very happy in her heart, looked at Lin Jia with a smile, and said in her heart: The second son's body is too weak, and he is only sixteen years old now, and it is the time to grow his body, so he has to make up for him!

She subconsciously regarded Lin Jia as a child, and when she saw that Lin Jia had finished eating the bowl of noodles, she asked softly in a child's tone: "Second son, do you need a slave to serve you another bowl?" ”

Lin Jia shook his head and put down the silver spoon in his hand.

Yu Yu hurriedly handed over the fragrant tea made in advance, waited for Lin Jia to rinse her mouth, and then went to clean up the mess.

waited for Yu Yu to clean up and come back to wait, but found that Lin Jia had fallen asleep.

When he was awake, his face was expressionless, and he looked very unprovoked, but when he fell asleep, he showed the childishness of a sixteen-year-old boy, and he looked very well-behaved.

His lips are beautiful, and his lips are pale pink, but they are still a little dry and flaky, and they appear whitish.

Yu Yu thought about what she had to do next - to boil medicine for Lin Jia and stew pear water to clear heat and moisten her lungs, but her movements were very sharp, helping Lin Jia to raise the brocade quilt a little higher, and went to the kitchen to be busy.

When Lin Jia woke up, he found that there was a candlestick lit on the couch in front of the window, and Yu Yu was sitting on the couch, reading a book in front of the candlestick.

She lowered her head and looked very concentrated, and the candlelight shone on her snow-white and pink face, which seemed to coat her with a layer of soft light, making her face even more crystal clear.

Lin Jia was lying on the bed in a daze - he had always been used to sleeping alone, and he was not used to having one more person in the room, and he was still a girl.

The window was pasted with snow-white moonlight paper, facing the candlelight, looking at the white swaying, I don't know what time it is.

Lin Jia moved, wanting to sit up with her hands on the bed, but she had a fever for too long, and she didn't have any strength at all, so she didn't sit up.

He inhaled softly, gathering strength again to try to sit up.

Yu Yi was reading the book, and when he heard the movement on the side of the stepping bed, he immediately put down the book and walked over, who knew that Lin Jia had just struggled to sit up, and the placket of the white silk shirt on his body was spread out, revealing his thin chest, Yu Yu just walked over, and suddenly saw Lin Jia's chest clearly, and was stunned for a moment.

Lin Jia realized that he had been looked at by Yu Yu, his brain was blank at the moment, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and he stretched out his hand to tighten his clothes.

Yu Yu stood there, but said in his heart: The second son is really thin, you can see the two rows of ribs, you have to make some delicious and nutritious food in the future, so that the second son can make up for it...... In addition, the second son looks too thin, and he has to exercise his body well...... It's just, how to exercise? You'll have to ask a connoisseur......

Lin Jia blushed and took the robe on the side and draped it on her body.

Just now, he was taken aback by Yu Yu, and a layer of sweat instantly appeared on his body, but he was much more relaxed at this time.

Yu Yu seemed to walk away.

After a while, Lin Jia heard Yu Yu's voice with a smile again: "Second son, it's time to drink the medicine, I'll bring the medicine over, you can drink it now!" ”

Lin Jia's face turned even redder, hot, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Yu, and found that Yu Yu was holding a bowl of soup and medicine, standing in front of the bed and looking at him gently.

Looking at such a jade gardenia, the little boy in Lin Jia's body timidly began to be coquettish: "Then you have to give me the kind of candied fruit last time." ”

When Yu Yu heard this, she squinted her eyes and smiled, and a pair of small pear vortices on her cheeks appeared from time to time, very cute: "Okay! ”

Lin Jia raised her eyes to look at Yu Yu, seeing how she conjured the candied fruit.

Yu Yu put the medicine bowl on the small table at the head of the bed, took out the oil paper bag prepared in advance from his sleeve pocket, and unfolded the oil paper bag with a smile for Lin Jia to seeβ€”there were several pieces of candied apricot on the oil paper!

Her favorite is small snacks like mints, but since she found out that Lin Jia likes these sweet and sour preserves, she prepared some preserved apricots and prepared to take them out when she coaxed Lin Jia to drink medicine.

Lin Jia found that Yu Yu was simply the incarnation of the snail girl, and he could conjure anything, so he first ate a piece of candied apricot and dried apricots, and then drank all the medicine in one go.

After drinking the medicine, Lin Jia had to regretfully change back to her adult appearance, and instructed Yu Yu: "You go and ask Ah Qing to bring the pen, cinnabar and ink clay." ”

Yu Yu had already glanced at the stack of files on the small table at the head of the bed, and knew that Lin Jia was afraid that he was going to give instructions for the official document, so he agreed, and prepared to go out and call Ah Qing to come in and wait.

Lin Jia raised her eyes and saw that Yu Yu was leaving, and suddenly felt a little reluctant in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Yu Yu, what are you going to do for dinner?" ”

Yu Yu turned around and smiled, her eyes bent into a sweet crescent moon: "Yu Gongzi, the slave maid stewed chicken soup for you in the kitchen, made chicken soup wontons, and ate them with sesame baked cakes!" ”

When Lin Jia heard this, she was looking forward to it, nodded her head, and watched Yu Yu go out.

After Yu Yu left, he began to continue to read the file sent by the county governor Helian Shan.

He had just arrived in Zhao County to take office, and the backlog of official affairs of the former magistrate was really piled up, and what Helian Shan sent was only part of it.

When Lin Jia first arrived, he had to deal with it one by one, and sort out all aspects of Zhao County through these official duties.

After reading for a while, Lin Jia looked at the file in his hand and found a problem.

Yu Yu had just walked to the gate of the inner house, and was about to go to the small kitchen in the east, when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside, and hurriedly walked over.

The door was open, and Yu Yu looked at it, but found that it was empty outside, and there was no one.

Yu Yu was surprised when she suddenly found a letter on the ground.
