Although the days of waiting were torturous, Lan Yi cherished them very much.

She seized every minute of her time with the children, as if she wanted to engrave all of them in her head. Especially Yu'er, she always felt that she had a lot to say to him, and she couldn't wait for him to grow up in an instant. Yu'er was also infected by the reluctance and urgency brought out by her mother's attitude, and followed Lan Yi inch by her side, refusing to go anywhere.

"Mother, there are twenty-five duck eggs, there are fewer ducks, and there are no fewer eggs!" Yu'er and Baobao picked up the duck eggs in the garden and put them in the basket, and said happily to Lan Yi, "If you don't eat white food, it's good!" ”

Lan Yi smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from their foreheads. In order to thank the people in the village for helping to find their mother and son, Lan Yi asked Second Uncle Wang to give away a lot of ducks, and now there are more than forty of them left on the hillside of her house, and most of them should be female ducks. There are fewer ducks, but there are no fewer eggs, so naturally there are more.

These duck eggs, plus the eight or nine eggs laid by the hens at home every day, are happy to spoil the baby and Yu'er who pick up the eggs every day.

"Mother, mother, pickle, eat." The baby said as he held up the duck egg.

Lan Yi took it and put it in the basket: "Baby, let's not pickle it this time, go back and make egg yolk baked pumpkin for you, do you want to eat it?" "Baked pumpkin with egg yolk is Lan Yi's favorite dish now, and the slightly sweet taste is very popular with both children.

The baby immediately clapped his little hands and shouted, "I want to eat, I want to eat." ”

Yu'er thought of a few cow eggs: "Mother, make more, last time Yu'er went to Niu Dan's house to eat stewed meat, Niu Dan said that he wanted to go to our house to eat egg yolk baked pumpkin." ”

Lan Yi nodded, picked up the basket with one hand, and led the donkey and goat home. She looked back at the two she-goats with their cubs, thinking that they would not be able to see their cubs next month.

Although he was about to leave for Meixian, Lan Yi did not plan to dispose of all the things at home, and only sold the excess grain in the cellar.

As for other things, there is no need to deal with them. In addition to storing grain, I am afraid that the donkey, goat, chickens, ducks and geese are worth some silver at home, even if they are all sold, it is only a dozen taels of silver, it is better to keep them. This is her home, and who says she can't come back?

"Fourth sister, is your arm better? Didn't you say you shouldn't go out these days? While Lan Yi was thinking wildly, Lei Tianze strolled over and reached out to take the reins and basket in her left hand.

Lan Yi nodded, stepped forward and opened the door of the house and said, "Brother Tuesday has already asked to understand, those people are abductors, and there are no accomplices, so I can go out in the past two days." The arm is much better, just not too hard. ”

"Third uncle, where is your big white horse?" Lei Tianze's white horse was tall and handsome, and the figure of Yu'er who rode away across the sword that day was very impressive. Lei Tianze treats the two children kindly, and the two little ones also like this uncle very much, more than those cousins in Huajia Village.

Lei Tianze smiled and said, "In the stable, I'll bring it over another day for you two to ride." ”

The baby grinned and rode a horse or something, he liked it the most.

"Third brother, I didn't expect your horse to ride so well, and your martial arts should be good, right?" Lan Yi heard Liu describe Lei Tianze's heroic appearance on horseback several times, and then looked at the gentle scholar in front of him, he was really unseemly.

"It's just a fist embroidered leg." Lei Tianze chuckled, and Zhou Weiji's figure flashed in his mind, "It's not as good as Brother Zhou's real fists and feet honed from the battlefield." ”

Lan Yi heard him mention Zhou Weiji, the roots of his ears were slightly red, and this kind of change fell in Lei Tianze's eyes, and he squinted and remembered that Zhou Weiji jumped over the wall to Lan Yi's kitchen that day.

"Yu'er, baby, you two go and put the duck eggs in the basket, and then pick up the eggs in the chicken pen, and then call Dafu and the cow eggs over to eat." Lan Yi instructed the two little ones.

After the two children went out, Lan Yi sat on the chair and said to Lei Tianze seriously: "Third brother, I will go to Meixian in a few days, it will take a few days to come back, Yu'er will follow Second Uncle Wang's family during this time, please take care of him for me." ”

Lei Tianze nodded lightly: "It has something to do with the two thieves who were caught?" ”

Lan Yi nodded, now that there were only the two of them and no one else, she naturally told the truth.

Although she has only been friends with Lei Tianze for a few months, she has already regarded him as a confidant, and some things are not good for the second uncle's family, but there is no need to hide them from Lei Tianze: "Those two thieves are related to my life experience, and the yamen has sent someone to Meixian to deliver a letter, and there will be news soon." ”

After that, Lan Yi briefly talked about his life experience.

Lei Tianze nodded after hearing this, frowning slightly: "Have you passed the official face?" ”

"Brother Tuesday used the government and the garrison army to find our mother and son, and I can't hide it."

After hearing this, Lei Tianze didn't ask much, pondered for a moment and said: "Since you have passed the official face, you must be promoted to the court after you arrive in Meixian." Wang Mingli's father-in-law is Tian Zhixian of Meixian County, and it is said that Tian Zhixian should avoid suspicion about the promotion of the court, and when the exact news comes back in a few days, you write a letter to inform Mrs. Mi County of this matter, and ask Mi County Cheng to take the initiative to raise the case to ask about the case, and Tian Zhixian County cannot refuse. Also, the two thieves must be strictly guarded, and they cannot be allowed to contact their masters, and they will talk about it after they go to court, so they must not lose the opportunity. ”

Lan Yi nodded: "Little sister wrote it down." ”

"Don't be afraid, the third brother will go to Meixian with you then." If something like this happens, Lan Yi is afraid that she will be alone.

Lan Yi's heart was warm, she looked up at Lei Tianze and asked, "Third brother, I am a little maid of the Wang family, a merchant in Meixian County, don't you think you have lost your identity?" ”

Lei Tianze smiled: "I only recognize you as talented, what is the difference between you being a widow of the Wang family or a maid of the Wang family." Didn't the fourth sister say, 'Heroes don't ask where they come from'? ”

Once, when Lei Tianze and Lan Yi chatted about the heroes and heroes of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, they once sighed that although Guan Yunchang was a hero who stood up to the sky, he was born in a slight cold background and had a bad situation in his early years. Lan Yi replied with the sentence "Heroes don't ask where they come from", and Lei Tianze was very impressed.

Lan Yi's many modern views and free and easy attitude made Lei Tianze refreshed. Therefore, regardless of their background, whether they are men or women, they only talk about poetry and become confidants. This is also the reason why Lei Tianze later recognized Lan Yi as his sister-in-law, but he still did not tell the true situation at home, because there was no need, he didn't care about his family background, and Lan Yi didn't care, what was the difference between saying it and not saying it.

Lan Yi smiled: "Third brother, where am I a hero!" also paraphrase the third brother's sentence, I have to meet the third brother, and the little sister is 'very fortunate in this life'! ”

Lei Tianze looked at Lan Yi for a moment and laughed.

Hearing such a jade-like warm and hearty laughter, Lan Yi felt a lot more cheerful: "Third brother, there is Brother Tuesday to protect me all the way to Meixian, and Sister Wan and Mi County will take care of me when I go to Meixian, just as the third brother said, the little sister should be safe, and the third brother doesn't need to worry, just take care of the books." If the little sister wasn't born as a daughter, she would also want to be a teacher. ”

She knew Lei Tianze's kindness. Lei Tianze didn't talk about his life experience, but although Qianmo called Lei Tianze a young master on weekdays, he inadvertently called him "Childe".

The title of Childe is not something that ordinary people dare to use.

Even so, so what? Lei Tianze came to this poor countryside to teach for pleasure, whether it was out of interest or to avoid incidents, he should not expose his own affairs to others.

Lei Tianze smiled, didn't dwell on this issue too much, and instead cared about her and Zhou Weiji's affairs: "Third brother, look at it, Brother Zhou's treatment of you is extraordinary." ”

And you treat him very ordinary, willing to let him help many times but refuse to accept your own help, Lei Tianze said silently in his heart.

Lan Yi lowered her head and subconsciously bit her lip, remembering Zhou Weiji's inescapable eyes and the confession that she couldn't answer.

"Brother Tuesday is a fast catcher, and this matter is also his responsibility." Although she is a confidant with Lei Tianze, she still can't say it in front of him, such as children's affairs, which can only be shared with her girlfriends.

At this time, Baobao and Yu'er ran in with Dafu Niudan, and Lei Tianze said goodbye and left. He did not go directly back to Yixue's residence, but turned around and went to Zhou Weiji's house.

The door of Zhou Weiji's courtyard was wide open, he moved out the wood that had been idle for a long time in the east wing, and dried it in the courtyard, at this time he was squatting on the ground with his back to the gate to sort out the purlins, Lei Tianze said goodbye from Lan Yi's house, he naturally heard it, and only frowned.

But when he said Lei Tianze, he suddenly had a tentative thought, slowed down his breathing, and walked towards Zhou Weiji step by step.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the courtyard only five steps, Zhou Weiji bent down and turned around suddenly, his right hand clasped around his waist, and looked at him sharply.

"Brother Zhou, Lei saw that your door was open, so he entered uninvited." Lei Tianze couldn't help but feel a little chilled when he saw his expression, he didn't expect Zhou Weiji to be so alert, he suppressed the surprise in his heart and smiled, "It seems that I have disturbed Brother Zhou." ”

Zhou Weiji shook his head: "It's just sorting out some old things, Lei Fuzi, please come in." ”

Letting Lei Tianze into the hall, Zhou Weiji remembered that there was no hot water at home, so he directly handed him a wine gourd on the table, sat down and asked, "What is the matter with the master looking for Zhou?" ”

Lei Tianze took the wine gourd, pulled out the lid and took a big sip, swallowed it without frowning, revealing a happy expression. He said pointedly: "Everyone else treats guests with tea, and Brother Zhou's substitution of wine for tea is not bad." I just drank a few glasses of cold mung bean paste from my fourth sister, and then drank the fiery liquor from you, one cold and one hot, which is intriguing. ”

Zhou Weiji heard him talk about Lan Yi, and pursed his lips a little displeased. Although there was a wall separated from him since that day, he and Lan Yi never had a chance to meet again, and it was making him scratch his heart and think that Lei Tianze could come to the door to ask for tea!

"Lei Fuzi, Zhou is a rough man, please say anything clearly."

Lei Tianze shook his head and sighed, his little sister is full of poetry and books, it can be said that her talent is not inferior to the great talent in the world, and the choice of a son-in-law should also be a talented person, and it is indeed a pity to match Zhou Weiji.

"Brother Zhou is a martial artist, how can he be willing to be a little catcher here? It is necessary to know that a good man has ambitions in all directions, and the big husband should be famous and killed. ”

Zhou Weiji glanced at Lei Tianze's right hand tiger mouth, and the calluses on his tiger mouth were only available to people who often used swords: "There is no war at the border pass, so Zhou naturally wants to take off his armor and return to his hometown." Lei Fuzi ran to teach in our mountains, I don't know what he was for? ”

The surname Lei, a white horse chasing the wind for thousands of miles, is accustomed to using swords, with a Beijing accent, isn't it? Zhou Weiji's eyes rolled and he remembered someone.

Lei Tianze smiled faintly: "Hehe, the so-called people have their own ambitions, if Lei Mouzhizhi said that she listened to the fourth sister, she would clap her hands and applaud, but it was not worth mentioning in front of Brother Zhou." ”

Originally, he came over to tell Zhou Weiji a few words about the prisoner and the trip to Meixian, but at this time, he knew that his worries were unnecessary. But since you're here, you can't come in vain, right?

Zhou Weiji heard him frequently mention Lan Yi, and reminded him that he was different from her, so he became even more displeased.

Thinking of the two poetry books he pressed under the pillow, thinking of Lei Tianze, who went to Lan Yi's little girl's house every day to talk about poetry and friends, eating and drinking, and even admitting a kiss with Lan Yi.

Thinking of Lan Yi's completely different tone when he called himself "Brother Tuesday" and called him "Third Brother", Zhou Weiji's displeasure hung on his face, his two thick eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at Lei Tianze coldly. R1152
