Chapter 183: Mutual Help (4K)
Zhou Huaixuan's words did not contain a trace of affection, just like his expression.
Little wolfberry was said to be teary-eyed, but in front of Zhou Huaixuan's cold face, he didn't dare to cry or be coquettish, except to be obedient, he knew that he had no choice.
The little wolfberry, full of tears, lay in the "nest" that Zhou Huaixuan made for him on the table, and finally fell asleep.
Zhou Huaixuan went to make a fire, picked up the ash pile in the middle of the house, put two hares wrapped in yellow mud and buried them inside, planning to make a "flower rabbit", and then lit a fire in the ground and began to boil hot water.
There was snow outside, so he dug up a few lumps of snow, threw them in a pot and boiled them, and then threw the grouse he had packed into it, as well as the black truffles and lion's mane mushrooms he had picked from the pine trees outside, and began to boil the grouse soup.
Sheng Siyan didn't sleep well, her body was getting hotter and hotter, she only felt that the whole person was being roasted with a blazing fire, and then she was thrown into the pot of boiling water, steaming hot, and when she was in pain, suddenly a coolness fell from the sky, stabilizing her floating mind.
It's so cool......
Sheng Siyan showed a smile in her dream.
She didn't know that it was Zhou Huaixuan who sat silently on the edge of her bed, and kept using a wet towel to cover her forehead.
Later, the wet towels were dried by her, and Zhou Huaixuan put them on with his palm.
His body temperature is lower than that of ordinary people, and it is just right to put it on Sheng Siyan's forehead, so he doesn't have to worry about being too cold, and he won't be "baked" lightly......
He sat silently on the edge of the bed, with one hand on her forehead, and waited motionless until dawn.
Sheng Siyan was awakened by the smell of fragrant eyebrows.
Before she could open her eyes, her stomach rumbled twice.
Zhou Huaixuan quickly withdrew his hand and stood up like no one else. Said: "The soup is ready." ”
Sheng Siyan's high fever has just subsided. The whole person is still confused.
At first glance, I heard a man's voice appear in this small stone house. Frightened, his eyes widened.
When he saw Zhou Huaixuan's impeccable, but calm and indifferent handsome face, Sheng Siyan remembered what happened last night.
Thinking of those green wolf eyes, she couldn't help but sweat again.
Zhou Huaixuan glanced at her, picked up Sheng Siyan's big padded jacket that was resting on the side of the bed, took a look, and then carried it with two fingers and threw it into the corner.
Sheng Siyan was anxious, and sat up wrapped in Zhou Huaixuan's mink fur. "Ambiguously" softly, "That's my clothes!" What do I wear when you threw it away? ”
Zhou Huaixuan pointed to the dark mink fur on her body, "Wear this." ”
Sheng Siyan couldn't cry or laugh, and wanted to throw this mink fur away, but when he thought that he was only wearing a thin soft silk pajama and pajamas inside, he had to wrap the mink fur more tightly, and hummed and chirped: "I wear this, so what are you wearing?" Let me tell you, it's warm in the house, but when the door opens. Go out and freeze your skin. ”
Zhou Huaixuan ignored her noise and picked up her big padded jacket from the corner. I turned my back and walked to the door, then opened the door and actually went out!
The door of the small stone house slammed shut, Sheng Siyan looked at the door in a daze, his eyes darkened, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Wang, also awakened by the smell of grouse soup, sniffled and sat up.
Sheng Siyan hurriedly wrapped the mink fur and got off the bed, brushed his hair wildly, and twisted the long mink fur on his body several times before it was tied firmly.
"Mother, there is chicken soup here, you drink a little first." Sheng Siyan came to the ground, lifted the lid of the pot and sniffed deeply, then scooped a bowl of chicken soup for Wang with a spoon, and served Wang to drink it on the bed.
After drinking a bowl of hot and fragrant grouse soup, Wang felt that the whole person was alive again.
She glanced at Sheng Siyan with a smile and said, "Come, I'll comb your hair." You haven't combed your hair properly in days. ”
Sheng Siyan touched his hairy braid nonchalantly and said, "Actually, I have to wash it." ”
She hasn't washed her hair since the heavy snowfall.
Wang nodded, "I want to boil hot water and wash it today." Then he asked, "What about General Zhou?" Are you feeling better? Get up early in the morning to boil grouse soup, hard work. ”
Wang thought that this soup was boiled by Sheng Siyan.
Sheng Siyan was surprised, "This soup is not boiled by my mother?" ”
She thought it was Wang's boiling.
Both of them would be mistaken.
"Could it be that General Zhou Xiao boiled it?" Wang Daqi smacked his lips, "It tastes really good." Tsk, this week, the little general, I really can't see it. And such craftsmanship......"
Sheng Siyan was also surprised, her eyes looked around the small stone house, and she was stunned to see the only table in the small stone house, lying down and sleeping very sweetly!
She knows best that the little wolfberry sleeps unsteadily, sleeping in the bed, and can roll from one end to the other in one night.
Sheng Siyan had to wake up countless times every night and carry the little wolfberry back to the pillow to sleep.
But now I see Little Goji sleeping on the table alone, close to the wall, sleeping properly, as if he knows that if he sleeps unruly, he will fall off the table!
"This kid ......" Sheng Siyan shook her head with a smile, went over and picked up the little wolfberry with a thin blanket, and put it back on the bed she slept on just now.
Wang also smiled and asked, "What about General Zhou?" Let's go? ”
Sheng Siyan nodded, "I went out just now." ”
Wang Shi hurriedly said: "That's right, let's freshen up." What a rude last night. ”
Yesterday, their family was dying of hunger, and when they saw Zhou Huaixuan, both of them were exhausted.
Sheng Siyan had a high fever and was still a little dizzy.
Wang was also tired, but he had a good night's sleep and had just eaten a bowl of grouse soup to get better.
Sheng Siyan looked down at the ermine fur that had grown on his body, the hem was at least a foot long and was dragged on the ground, and laughed at himself: "If I can go back, I will have to pay someone a piece of clothing." ”
Wang smiled without saying a word, and went to the water tank in the corner of the house to take a look, which was full of water.
Sheng Siyan took out the grouse soup and replaced it with a large pot to boil hot water.
Soon the water boiled, and she and Wang took a basin of water together, washed their faces, and rubbed their hands and feet. Pick up the baby goji berries again. Wash his face and feet. By the way, rub his teeth again.
Little Goji woke up, hugged Sheng Siyan and didn't let go, and was extremely attached to her than usual.
Sheng Siyan didn't know what was going on, so he had to coax him with grouse soup.
Little wolfberry doesn't like to drink soup, but loves meat, after eating a few bites of grouse, his little nose wrinkled, and he pointed to the bottom of the ground and said, "Fragrant." It smells so good. ”
Wang cleaned up the table, put the thin blanket back on the bed of Sheng Siyan and Little Goji Berry, and said, "Put the food on the table." ”
Sheng Siyan replied and brought the grouse soup over.
The little wolfberry looked straight at the ground with his eyes, the flames above were about to burn out, and the ash under it seemed to be thicker.
Sheng Siyan thought about it, opened the door, and saw that the heavy snow outside had stopped, and the snow was two feet deep and piled up at the door. Cover the door of the small stone house halfway.
Zhou Huaixuan was standing on the snowdrift in front of the door with his hands behind his back, but he didn't sink in.
On the white snow. He stood there with his hands behind his back, with a very independent demeanor.
It was so cold outside, but he was only wearing a dark blue thin fox fur robe with arrow sleeves, and a wide cowhide belt of the same color was tied around his waist, which made him look more and more bee-waisted and ape-backed, and crane-like and mantis-like.
The black and blue top hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, and the rest of the hair was scattered behind the head and hung down to the shoulders, without any mess.
Sheng Siyan looked at his yellowed and forked whip, hurriedly threw the big braid behind him, and said softly with a smile: "Brother Zhou, it's cold outside, come in." ”
Zhou Huaixuan glanced back at her and saw that she was wearing his mink fur on her body, although she had grown up and didn't fit at all, she didn't take it off, and her mood was strangely better.
He walked back to the house, took the door with his hand, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the little wolfberry holding Sheng Siyan's legs, like a koala bear.
Wherever Sheng Siyan went, he followed.
Zhou Huaixuan glanced at the little wolfberry silently.
Little Goji Berry's mouth was deflated, and he immediately let go of Sheng Siyan's legs, rubbed back into the corner, and sat side by side with the little hedgehog Ah Cai, bowing his head and playing with his fingers.
The curvature of the corners of Zhou Huaixuan's mouth curled suspiciously.
He sat down on a small bench on the edge of the hollow, and slowly and methodically lifted away the ashes from the trench with tongs, revealing two lumps of "lumps of earth" that had been charred by the embers.
He picked up a "loess lump" and slapped it hard with tongs.
The yellow mud shell fell in response, revealing the fragrant roast rabbit meat inside!
The little wolfberry suddenly rushed over, and the corners of his mouth drooled and looked at the barbecue in Zhou Huaixuan's hand.
Sheng Siyan said happily: "This is ...... Hare? ”
Zhou Huaixuan nodded, and handed the roasted hare that had just been peeled from the yellow mud shell to Sheng Siyan, "Eat it while it's hot." ”
Sheng Siyan hurriedly took it and said, "I'll cut one qiē, eat a little, and save the rest." ”
"Save it?" Zhou Huaixuan was puzzled, "I've eaten them all." He urged.
"No, it won't. Just these two hares and pheasants, it will take a long time. I don't know when this snow will melt. Sheng Siyan said as he took a small dagger to cut the rabbit into small pieces and stacked it in a stoneware plate.
Wang also sighed, "Yes, if the snow does not melt, we can't go down the mountain, and the people under the mountain can't come up." ”
Zhou Huaixuan didn't speak, sat back on the small bench next to the ground, scooped up another "loess lump" again, and slapped it open with tongs, revealing another roasted brown and fragrant hare inside.
The little wolfberry's eyes were round, and he almost pricked up his ears.
Sheng Siyan: "==". It doesn't have to be like this, right? Forgot about the eldest sister so quickly?
Wang smiled and called the little wolfberry over and put some roast rabbit slices cut by Sheng Siyan in front of him.
Sheng Siyan only ate two slices himself, but he filled a plate for the Wang family, and gave Zhou Huaixuan more......
Zhou Huaixuan only took a piece of rabbit meat, ate it with the same taste as chewing wax, and pushed the rest to Sheng Siyan, "Eat." ”
Sheng Siyan shook his head, "I'm full." You eat it. Did you eat it yesterday? I went to bed early at night...... "I didn't have time to cook food for Zhou Huaixuan."
Zhou Huaixuan looked at her and shook his head lightly, "I'm not hungry." You eat. ”
Wang Shi watched the two of them push around with a plate of rabbit meat, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Siyan, you can eat it." Since General Zhou can go up the mountain on this snowy day, he can go down the mountain, and he won't be hungry. We'll have to wait for the snow to melt before we can go down the mountain. ”
It means that Zhou Huaixuan will leave at any time, so don't worry about him not being full......
Sheng Siyan had no choice but to bring the plate back, sat in front of Zhou Huaixuan and slowly sandwiched a piece of rabbit meat and ate it.
The rabbit meat grilled with yellow mud is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the truffle has a strange aroma, and the taste is too good to describe.
Sheng Siyan squinted his eyes with a "hmm", and the expression of eating with the little wolfberry was actually a little similar.
Zhou Huaixuan glanced at her steadily, didn't look over, didn't speak, sat in front of the ground, and kept looking at the flames in the ground.
Wang got up and walked back and forth in the small stone house, asking Zhou Huaixuan questions.
“…… Did you go to the Northwest? Have you found any herbs? ”
"Found it." Zhou Huaixuan nodded, but his expression clearly stated that it was useless to find the medicinal herbs, because the emperor was already dead......
Wang asked, "How do you know we're here?" "This is the strangest thing about her.
Since the people of Wangjia Village did not sell them to the Marquis of Changyuan's Mansion, they would not sell them to the Divine General's Mansion......
Zhou Huaixuan didn't make a sound, and listened to Wang's words in silence. He couldn't say that it was Old Man Zhou who sued him. Wouldn't that sell the old man......
Those gray-clothed people are Old Man Zhou's people. Without them, Sheng Siyan and the Wang family might not have been able to survive two months on this medicine mountain.
Sheng Siyan saw that Zhou Huaixuan was silent, thought about it, smiled and said softly: "I went to your mansion to deliver a post before, and I wanted to ask to see Old Man Zhou and ask when you will come back." But there has been no response. ”
The ridicule on the corner of Zhou Huaixuan's lips flashed for a moment, "Post? ”
He didn't know anything about it. Zhou Huaixuan looked at the ground and was silent.
Sheng Siyan nodded, "Later, when we left, we also went to your mansion and tried again, but we still couldn't see Old Man Zhou, and we didn't have so much time to delay, so we had to leave the capital in a hurry." ”
This is what Zhou Huaixuan is most puzzled about.
As far as he knew, Sheng Qiye's case was postponed for retrial, and the imperial court had no intention of implicating, why did Sheng Siyan and the Wang family leave the Sheng Guo Mansion with the little wolfberry?
And the wanted notice at the city gate, what the hell is going on?
Sheng Siyan saw Zhou Huaixuan look at her, thought about it, and explained to him, "...... It is also something in our family that has been used by the Marquis of Changyuan. We have to flee as soon as possible, or ......" Sheng Siyan smiled bitterly, she really didn't know what fate awaited them.
She didn't even dare to think about it.
At this moment, she was most grateful to Sheng Ningbai.
If it weren't for him, she, Wang, and Little Goji would either be dead, or life would be worse than death.
Wang softly stopped Sheng Siyan from saying more, "But General Zhou Xiao is back, and we have hope." I also hope that General Zhou Xiao will go to Dali Temple and make it clear to the people there. Our grandfather ...... Grandpa Guo really wants to cure His Majesty, and he has never thought of 'killing the king'. ”
Wang's grief came from it, and he couldn't help it for a while, and choked up.
Sheng Siyan hurriedly wiped Wang's tears with a handkerchief, and comforted her in a low voice: "Mother, don't be sad." Daddy's fine. As she spoke, she glanced at Zhou Huaixuan pleadingly, "Brother Zhou......"
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Huaixuan had already nodded, "I'll go." ”
