In 318 A.D., in late November, the year entered Xiaohan and fought his fingers.

Mo Li was looking forward to the snow, because Xiao Langjun said that he could return to Huating when the first snow arrived, but Jiang Zuo Lin came late in winter, and Shanyin Water City was even more so, since the beginning of winter, it has been a smoke lock bridge, and there is no sign of half a minute of snow.

Yesterday, a sudden gust of wind came, blowing away the cold fog all over the city, the sky was white, Moli stood under the eaves, his hand on his eyebrows and looked at the wind in the woodtops, quietly thinking: It's time to snow.

The final night breeze, gently patting the window.

Mo Li tossed and turned in the warm nest, did not sleep all night, quietly got up before dawn, gently entered the inner room, Xiao Langjun breathed calmly, slept deeply, reached out for Xiao Langjun pinched the open corner of the chest, reached into the nest from the other end, touched the soup woman, warm, but a little warm, so he wanted to pull it out and take it to change.

I can't help it, but I feel something and feel it, and it is Xiao Langjun's feet that are warm.

Mo Li's body paused slightly, his eyelashes blinked twice, he quietly withdrew his hand, and quickly glanced at Xiao Langjun, Xu was not very comfortable to sleep lying down, Xiao Langjun squirmed his mouth twice, and then turned over, hugged the soft big pillow on the right side, leaned his head over, his cheeks pressed tightly against the pillow, took advantage of the left and right, and continued to sleep.

Xiao Langjun doesn't like the pottery pillow, thinks the pottery pillow is too hard, and would rather distribute it every day and sleep on a soft pillow. Moreover, Xiao Langjun's pillows are all in pairs, because Xiao Langjun likes to hold one. Why does Xiao Langjun like to hold pillows? It's like pothos likes to sleep with a cloth jacket...... Mo Li used scissors to cut the lamp of the three-legged golden black lamp, tilting her head and thinking faintly.

When the lights stopped smoking, she floated out of the inner room with a warm pot, and glanced at the small wooden couch of the pothos, she was still asleep, and she really hugged the kettle. It looks so weird. Lannu's wooden couch was next to the pothos, with her hands on the side of her face, and she didn't know what she had dreamed of, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her body curled up tightly, very similar to the sleeping posture of the big white cat.

Silently walked to the door. Open the door a crack.

Snowing?

It's really snowing......

The snowflakes that are fluttering quietly with the wind, ethereal in the pavilion, sprinkled in the pool, stretch out your hand to explore, slightly cool and slightly cool, and melt when you start. Mo Li held the pot in his right arm, and stretched out his left hand to meet the snowflakes, walking along the corner of the corridor without feeling cold at all. Because the heart is warm. When I came back after changing the hot water, I saw the pothos and the blue slave also rising.

"Gege ......"

In the courtyard, the pothos carried the skirt and jumped enchanting in the snowflakes, like a peacock, and Lannu stood on the porch and smiled quietly. Xiao Langjun also got up, and was looking at the wind and snow in front of him with his arms crossed.

Mo Li stepped forward quickly, shallow and blessed, wanting to tie the crown for Xiao Langjun.

Liu Nong smiled: "No. Don't go out today. ”

The pothos danced an unknown dance for a while, and the corners of her forehead were oozing with fine sweat. Looking back and smiling: "Xiao Langjun, what ...... Today, do we eat hot pot? When he was in Huating, every time the first snow came, Xiao Langjun had to eat hot pot. And hot pot can really breathe fire, and pothos's favorite food is hot pot. Spicy. You don't need to sip lip grease anymore, it's naturally cherry red.

Mo Li also likes to eat hot pot, and when she saw Lan Nu's puzzled face, she smiled and said, "Lan Nu, the hot pot is delicious." ”

Lannu said seriously, "Oh. ”

Liu Nong stepped into the courtyard. Looking up at the vast snow, the face was coming, a little cold, turned around and looked at the three beautiful maids, Lang smiled: "Hmm...... Today, eat hot pot! ”

"Wondery......"

The pothos cheered, and quickly slipped to the front yard to find Laifu, and the hot pot was there.

Mo Li turned around and entered the room, took out a moonlight cloak, Liu Nong took it, and draped it on his shoulders in the face of the wind and snow. It is a crane, placket, sleeveless, with crane feathers clustered at the collar corners. In winter, Liu Nong didn't like thick jackets, so Yang Shaoliu made him a few pieces, which were easy to wear, just need to tie them around the neck, and were extremely resistant to wind and snow. Yang Shaoliu himself has it, but it is a snow fox red.

Mo Li handed over a small hand stove of golden silk nanmu again, lowered his head and said softly: "Xiao Langjun, it's snowing......

Liu Nong pinched the small hand stove, puzzled.

Mo Li's head hung lower, and he muttered: "It's snowing, the snow in Huating must be more beautiful......

"Oh......"

Liu Nong tightened his neckline, glanced at the ink glass that was about to be buried in his chest, and said with a smile: "In two days, I'll be back." ”

"Really?" Mo Li blurted out.

"Hmm."

Liu Nong responded with a smile, the various assessments the day before yesterday have passed, and when the results come out, the Huiji School will be suspended. Yesterday, Xie Pei and he had the assessment content, presumably the last time it was also the upper and lower grades, after all, Xie Pei is a sitting gentleman, how can he not help his disciples. The evaluation will be included in the recommendation letter, which will also be of great help to the evaluation and formal evaluation of large and small schools in the coming year.

Xie Pei returned to Shanyin in early November, and the three strategies he advised in Jiankang, Sima Rui only adopted Tu Xuan and Yangshi, and the first policy of building an army was shelved separately, such a result, as expected by Liu Nong, Sima Rui naturally wanted to take power, but he had to take care of Wang Dun, how could he dare to build an army at this time. However, after Xie Yi returned to Shanyin, he praised Xie Yi and Xie Shanghaosheng in the military camp, which seemed to be careless, but in fact it had a deep meaning.

What is the intent? Liu Nong doesn't need to know in detail, but for Liu Nong, Shanyin is about to finish his studies and has gained a lot. After this first snow, he returned to Huating with a full load.

At this time, Laifu and Pothos came to the courtyard.

"Xiao Langjun, shall we go to the pavilion?" The green pothos held the hot pot, pointed to the small pavilion by the pool, and asked with a smile.

Liu Nong smiled: "Okay! "Eating hot pot in the open air and snow must be very interesting.

The group came to the pavilion, Laifu put a low table, and the green pothos put the hot pot on the table. This is a chimney hot pot, which is cast by the Huating craftsman's workshop according to the style of Liu Nong's painting. The bottom is made of firewood, which is heated through a straight pipe in the middle and smoked.

Pothos dragged out a few dry firewood branches from under the wooden couch of the black glass, ordered Laifu to chop into small pieces with a heavy sword, and then dismantled the fire and began to make a fire. After a while, the hot pot erupted, but she dyed a cat's face, and wiped it with her hand to make it worse, causing Lannu to laugh coquettishly.

Lan Nu helped the ink glass to serve vegetables on the side, and in the winter season, there were very few tender vegetables, but there were also lettuce, bitter vegetables, and toon sprouts. Rifle walked around the kitchen and came out with a few trays of thinly cut lamb slices.

Luluo smiled: "Brother Laifu's swordsmanship has risen." This year's lamb breast is so thinly cut. ”

"Hehe...... Fu trembled with his left hand on the sword, touched his head with his right hand, and smiled with a smile.

Moli put a plate of wild vegetables on the table, green, white, and green, each made different, and was soaked in ice water. It looks very tender. He clapped his hands with satisfaction, frowned and wondered if he had missed anything, suddenly remembered something, opened his eyebrows and eyes, and walked into the room with small steps, holding a small sachet when he came out. He took the sachet apart, took out a handful of things from it, pulled it into his fist, and shook it in front of Lannu's eyes. He asked, "What do you know what this is?" ”

Lannu shook his head and said, "Lannu doesn't know. ”

Mo Li smiled: "You sniff." ”

"Oh......"

Lan Nu cooperated closer, sniffed, and then his nose wrinkled slightly, and said hesitantly: "Dog, dogwood?" ”

"Yes, it's Dogwood!" Pothos leaned over a small flower face and interjected.

Mo Li spread his hands out. The cherry red dogwood fruit and the tender white palm reflect each other, which is very eye-catching. He took out a white silk handkerchief. Put the dogwood fruit in it, carefully put it in the corner, and then smiled at Laifu Rourourou.

Laifu suddenly realized, frowned, drew the heavy sword at his waist, and made a slight gesture towards the dogwood fruit on the case. Then he held the back of the sword and smashed it for a while, and after a while, the dogwood fruit on the case turned into dogwood powder.

Lanuki said, "Why did you smash it with a sword? ”

Pothos said, "You can eat it." ”

Lannu is more strange, dogwood is common in the wild, but it is used to make dogwood sacs and match them on the arm. I've never heard of it being edible, blinking his pale blue eyes, he wondered, "Can it really be eaten?" ”

"Absolutely!"

Seeing that Lan Nu didn't believe it, the pothos stretched out a finger and put a little on the dogwood powder on the silk handkerchief, slowly retracted it, and stuffed it into his mouth little by little. Then he shouted to Xiao Langjun, who was holding a scroll in the corner of the pavilion, and shouted: "Xiao Langjun, dogwood can be eaten, yes or no?" ”

Liu Nong replied: "Yes......"

Slightly.

The strong fragrance surrounds the pavilion, Liu Nong put down the scroll, and when he looks at it, the clusters of sparks are crackling, the mutton is rolled in the hot pot, the side dishes are placed on the four sides, the brightly colored seasoning dishes are resting on the side of the table, and the bamboo leaves are warmed in the cup, exuding a strong mellow fragrance. He lifted his robe, knelt down on the seat, and smiled at everyone: "Sit down." He said to Mo Li: "Daoqu and the hidden guard will each be rewarded with half a penny and a pot of wine." ”

Mo Li smiled: "Yes, Xiao Langjun." ”

The green pothos washed her face and came out, and saw that Lan Nu seemed to be a little cramped, so she whispered in her ear: "Sit down, Xiao Langjun said, when eating hot pot in winter, everyone needs to be seated." ”

Tuan Tuan Zao......

Lan Nu sat down skillfully and glanced at Mei Langjun diagonally opposite, only to see him holding chopsticks and taking out a piece of fat mutton in the pot, and then swinging it in a small dish and stuffing it into his mouth. Lan Nu thought to himself: Huating Liu is really different, and so is Huating Meihe......

When Liu Nong moved the chopsticks, everyone dropped the chopsticks one after another, even Tang Lixiao also loved this hot pot very much, and he clamped a large piece and almost touched the chopsticks of Laifu. When the matter is concerned, the snow is flying outside the pavilion, and the pavilion is happy.

After the meal, everyone cleaned up the mess, Liu Nong's face was slightly red, and his mood was extremely smooth, so he ordered Laifu to set up a case outside the pavilion, wanting to paint a "Winter Snow Immersion Map". Liu Nong will finish catching the gods, and is about to pick up the pen, the white robe hurriedly comes, and Ji Junshou is invited.

Cover the snow until the Jizhan Mansion.

Ji Zhan seemed to be unbearable to the cold, wrapped in a thick fur coat, holding a stove in his arms, and still trembling slightly. Since Ji You's death, this sturdy county guard seems to be much older, and the wrinkles on his forehead can be caught by mosquitoes.

After sitting for a while, Liu Nong excused himself for convenience, and went out to order the maid to present the brazier. The fire was very strong, and the cold air in the room was immediately expelled, Ji Zhan's expression eased up, and said with a smile: "Veteran, at this time in the past, I would definitely practice swords in the snow, but now I can only hold the stove and feel cold." ”

Ji Zhan's pulse is broken, it is really cold in the heart and not in the body, Liu Nong said with a smile: "Ying Lian is quite eighty and can eat rice and ten catties of meat, and the reason is that he is also interested in the country and the country!" The county guard is in its prime, how can you say it? ”

"What a home!" Ji Zhan struggled to sit up straight, looking at the wind and snow outside, and his voice was deep: "I invite you to come today, I want to say goodbye to you!" Tomorrow, the veteran will set off for Jiankang! As he spoke, he stroked the silver whiskers on his chest, straightened his waist, and then saw Mei Langjun but smiled silently, his heart was happy, and he smiled: "Aren't you surprised? ”

Liu Nong said with a smile: "The county guard is hidden in the chest, if the dragon is lurking in the abyss, he should be nostalgic for the country, so the county guard goes to Jiankang, Liu Nong is not surprised!" After a pause, he waved his hand and said, "It's just that the wind and snow are very strong, why don't you wait for two days?" ”

Ji Zhan didn't reply to him, but stood up with the dwarf case in his hand, and said with a smile: "Come with me!" ”

Walking in the wind and snow, Ji Zhan's waist pole is extremely stiff, and his posture is indeed majestic, half a head higher than Liu Nong. The two came to the courtyard where military posture was often exercised, Ji Zhan pushed the door in, pointed to the sand table and a large stack of books on the long case, and then swept the various furnishings in the room with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Everything in the room will be given to you!" ”

"This, Liu Nong deserves it!" Liu Nong waved his hand and didn't give it, the sand table in this room is Ji Zhan's hard work, how can he accept it in vain? Besides, this room was full of all kinds of armor and sword blades, although most of them were old, and some were even broken, but how could he not guess that these things were Ji Zhan's past, and a veteran Rong Ma had been here for half his life.

Ji Zhan caressed a cracked cold armor and said in a deep voice: "In the first year of Yongjia, I fought with Chen Min in the wilderness with this armor, and almost lost my life, thanks to it. He pointed to another piece of armor and said: "In the fifth year of Yongjia, I fought with this armor to assassinate Shi Huayi in Jiangdong and take the head of Zhendong General Zhou Fu......"

"In the sixth year of Yongjia, I held this sword and fought against Hu Shihu and Jidu ...... in the north"

"Ten years of Yongjia, bloody battle against Liu Hu ......"

"In the eleventh year of Yongjia, I wore this armor and followed my king's soldiers to Luoyang, and then fought Liu Hu ......"

Ji Zhan slowly pointed to one piece after another armor, then looked at Liu Nong deeply, and said with a smile: "I would like to stay for a hundred years, and the soldiers will return to the soil, just like the old farmers in the mountains." However, the mountain tomb is green but there is no descendant to sweep. Zhan Zhen, after my death, please Zhan Zhen when he is old, with a pot of tea, a cup of turbid wine, and a cold respect for the elderly, is it okay? After a pause, he said: "Don't shirk, you and I are still friends who have forgotten the year." ”

Liu Nong raised his head, stared at the old man in front of him, only to see the white beard fluttering, but the old state of the bell has already been fully revealed, although he knows that he still has a few years, but his heart is touched by a wave of oceans, and he does not shirk, waving his hand and saying: "I don't dare to be a county guard!" ”

"Haha......"

Ji Zhan laughed loudly, his expression suddenly relaxed, he walked to the door, pointed to the wind and snow outside, and said in a long voice: "The right talent Zhan Qin said that the wind and snow are in full bloom, but also, if it is not for the wind and snow, why do you need the veteran to rein in the horse." Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, turned around and smiled: "However, there is one thing, the old general is going to lose his word to you, and you don't regret it!" Without waiting for Liu Nong to answer, he said: "Veteran, I can't recommend you anymore!" ”

Liu Nong said with a smile: "Whether the county guard wants to recommend it or not, it is Liu Nong's luck!" ”

"Oh?"

Ji Zhan bent the corners of his mouth, and looked at Meilangjun for a long time, but seeing Liu Nong smiling slightly, he was still light and light, but he knew in his heart that he must have guessed, so he no longer hid it from him, and said with a smile: "Since I am in Jiankang, I don't need to recommend you anymore, because I have already shot for Shangshu's right servant, but you must not slack off because of this." The last half of the sentence is stern, like an elder's demeanor.

"Liu Nong, don't dare." Liu Nong took a long look.

And Ji Zhan to Jiankang, not only shot for Shangshu's right servant, but also had a position as a leading general, supervising the six armies; and is a servant and a casual attendant, leading the matter of Xie Li's land break. Sima Rui couldn't trust Liu Kui and Diao Xie at a critical time, lest the two of them don't know how to divide the rain and ignite the dark fire again, so he had to order the veteran to come out.
