Chapter 53: Meals

In the afternoon, Luo Zhen was reading in the house, and when the lights were on at night, she raised her head from the black letters, rubbed her eyes, and was startled when she saw that it was dark outside the window.

"It's so late?"

Yayu, who was embroidering not far away, heard her words, laughed, and said, "Miss is really a waste of sleep and food, I don't even know when I will turn on the light, you have been reading for several hours." ”

She paused, and then said, "I just thought that I was afraid that you would look at it for too long and lose your eyes, but I didn't dare to disturb your interest in reading. ”

Luo Zhen smiled: "Yayu is really sweet. ”

Yayu smiled lightly, and then asked, "Does Miss want to eat?" ”

Luo Zhen frowned slightly, "Well, I'll go see my father, he always doesn't eat when he's busy, I have to tell him." ”

Yayu sighed: "Miss is really a filial daughter." ”

Luo Zhen smiled: "Aren't you? I won't give my father soles yet. ”

The two girls laughed out loud in the room.

"Okay, I'll go, you can continue embroidering here, and don't forget to eat."

"Yes, miss."

With that, Luo Zhen walked out of the room and went to find Luo Fuzhou.

Sure enough, as she expected, Luo Fuzhou was really busy and didn't eat.

Luo Fuzhou was a little helpless, "Okay, let's eat." ”

Luo Zhen accompanied his father and watched the meals prepared in the kitchen.

Meals in the north have always had meat, which is full of color, flavor, and portions.

Luo Zhen likes Chinese food, but he feels that some meat dishes are too much, and he is too tired to eat too much.

She looked at the dishes in front of her, but there were a few dishes that caught her attention, and those dishes were very delicate, and the dishes only occupied a little in the middle.

The vegetables are green in color and look fresh and appetizing.

She asked, "What are those dishes?" ”

Luo Fuzhou said: "Didn't you say that there was too much meat in the dish a few days ago?" I'll just go and order a few more vegetarian dishes on the table, these are the dishes of the south at first glance, do they suit your appetite when you taste them? ”

Luo Zhen swallowed his saliva reservedly, and carefully took the unknown vegetable of fresh green closest to him and put it in his mouth.

"It's called lettuce, maybe you've just heard of it."

"It's tender." Luo Zhen is a little unaccustomed to it, but he still thinks that this vegetable tastes good and is very delicious.

"You can have a good taste." Luo Fuzhou said, "I see that you don't eat much at dinner on weekdays, it's really a bird's appetite." You're too skinny, you need to eat a little more. ”

Luo Zhen nodded, picked up the food and put it in his mouth.

She was eating with her head down, but Luo Fuzhou was fixed on her face, not knowing what she was thinking.

When Luo Zhen found his gaze, she couldn't help but stop her chopsticks and asked, "Father, why don't you eat?" Can I help you? ”

Luo Fuzhou frowned again, looked at her, looked a little embarrassed, and didn't seem to know how to talk about it.

Luo Zhen said: "It's okay, just say what your father wants." ”

Luo Fuzhou was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Zhen'er, I hope you can go abroad." ”

Luo Zhen was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Why?" ”

Luo Fuzhou said: "The situation in the country is a little grim, I hope you can go out to avoid the limelight." ”

"The last thing I can let go of is you, if you're okay, I'll be able to rest assured."

Seeing that Luo Zhen was about to say something immediately, Luo Fuzhou interrupted her and said, "You also know about my sneak attack a few days ago, Beiping is not as safe and quiet as you imagined, and the forces in the dark are all ready to move. ”

Luo Zhen looked at his father worriedly, and after a while, he finally spoke: "Can't I live and die with you?" I'm your daughter. ”

Luo Fuzhou smiled desolately, "You are still young, and there are still many things you haven't experienced, how can I let you get involved in this chaos." ”

He smiled lightly: "Zhen'er, I've lived to this age, and I've experienced everything, but you're different." ”

Luo Zhen put down his chopsticks and looked at him.

"That's it, I'll talk about that later." Luo Fuzhou looked at her like this and shook his head.

He picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of roasted fish and put it in Luo Zhen's bowl, the skin of the fish was fried crispy, and the sauce hung on it, which was very appetizing.

"Watch out for the sting." He spoke.

Luo Zhen nodded obediently, and did not continue the topic, picking up the chopsticks again and bowing his head to eat.

Luo Fuzhou looked at her long black hair and fell into deep thought.

After dinner, Luo Zhen went back to his room.

Although the topic just came to an abrupt end, she didn't forget it.

This is not the first time Luo Fuzhou has mentioned it to her, but she has not been back from Europe for a long time.

She had only spent one winter here, and was she going to return again, away from her father?

Emotionally, of course, she didn't want to, why couldn't she stay in her home country and face it with her father, but his father's will seemed to be very strong.

Alas, a headache.

Luo Zhen stroked his forehead.

When I came back to my room, I sat in the room and read a book for a while.

It's early, it's still early to go to bed.

Ayu came back from outside and brought a box of pastries.

Luo Zhen heard her footsteps, looked up at her, and then spoke: "It's okay during the day today, but it's a little cold at night, is there still a spring snow?" ”

Yayu disagreed, "What's so strange about this, in my opinion, there is still little snow this winter, the snow in previous years is knee-thick, although this year's snow has also fallen a lot, but it has not left such a deep snow." ”

"Spring is here, and the flowers in Beiping are about to bloom, right?"

Yayu said: "Of course, the flowers in Beiping are extremely beautiful, when you go to the Summer Palace or some other place to take a look, there are many flowers, what begonias, spring, peach blossoms, it is simply dazzling, when the time comes to go out to step on the spring is really a grand scene, I guess Miss you will definitely like it." ”

Luo Zhen listened silently, and suddenly heard a certain flower name, and his expression was stunned, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

She muttered softly, "yes, the flowers are about to bloom." ”

It's a pity that the person who once said that he would accompany him to enjoy the flowers is no longer there, maybe they can no longer enjoy the flowers together, and she has no chance to see the flowers in the pear orchard again.

She was thinking about it in a daze when she suddenly heard Yayu speak.

"Miss, take a break and try this snack. The kitchen has just been made, and it is freshly baked. ”

Luo Zhen came back to his senses, put down the book, looked at her, and chuckled, "Is this thing sweet?" ”

Yayu smiled: "It's a little sweet, Miss should eat less, so as not to eat bad teeth." ”

Luo Zhen said: "Bad girl, why are you afraid that I will eat bad teeth?" What if I can't control myself? ”

Yayu shouted: "Wrongdoer, it's really good to be kind, I want to take some desserts to let you rest, but I didn't expect to be said so." ”

Luo Zhen couldn't help laughing: "It's my fault, don't be angry, I'm here to accompany you." ”

Yayu smiled: "I don't know Miss yet? ”

She paused and looked at Luo Zhen's smiling face: "But I'm a little relieved, Miss is finally a little angry, not as lifeless as a few days ago, sure enough, the commander has a way." ”

When Luo Zhen heard this, his face stiffened and he fell silent.

Seeing this, Yayu secretly scolded herself for talking too much in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Miss, try this snack." ”

Luo Zhen smiled slightly, "Yayu, I've come out, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Yayu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'll rest assured." Miss, what kind of boy do you want for someone like you? You're bound to meet someone who is really right. ”

Luo Zhen stared at her with a gleam of gratitude in his eyes.

Suddenly, she smiled slyly: "Yayu has met someone she likes, how can she talk like a person from the past?" ”

"Miss is making fun of me and ignoring you." Yayu's face was a little unnatural, and she turned away.

Luo Zhen smiled: "Tell me, who do you like?" I'll show you each other. ”

"No, no, don't talk nonsense, Miss!"

"Hmph, that's stingy!"

The two girls were talking and laughing in the house, but in Luo Fuzhou's room, Wang Xuzhi was ushered in.

"How?" Luo Fuzhou poured himself a glass of water and spoke lightly.

"There has been news from there that the man is ready to act, and I think that the war will start in a short time, and the commander must be ready at that time."

Luo Fuzhou took a sip of tea and lifted his eyelids: "How long will it take?" ”

"I don't know the specifics yet, but it should be soon."

"How long does Asahi think it will take?"

Wang Xuzhi smiled bitterly: "The commander really trusts me." ”

Luo Fuzhou chuckled: "Of course, you are my favorite hand, I trust your judgment." ”

Wang Xuzhi pondered for a moment and said: "My subordinates guess that it should be March at most, and after spring, summer is a good time." ”

"So fast?" Luo Fu Zhou muttered.

Wang Xuzhi looked at him as if he was a little worried, and couldn't help but softly reassure: "Although that person has joined forces with Cheng Jun, I think it is still a little difficult to confront our army." ”

Luo Fuzhou sighed lightly and shook his head: "I'm not worried about this, I just think that this peace is still going to be broken after all?" ”

Wang Xuzhi was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "These are inevitable, we have to deal with them in troubled times." ”

Luo Fuzhou laughed: "Yes, yes, what you said is." ”

His smile faded, and then he said, "There are some things that I have to start arranging early." ”

Wang Xuzhi nodded in agreement, and he spoke: "Although I don't know what the other two in Beijing think, but after all, they are involved, and they will not sit idly by, but it is still a little difficult for them to agree to unite with us." ”

Luo Fuzhou frowned: "The Luo family is of no great use, it's just a declining aristocracy, the surname Luo relies on his own left and right to stand firm in the upper class, and also relies on his hundred-year-old background, with him or not, it's useless, there is no military power in his hands, as for the Yan family," he paused for a moment and said, "Luo Yongning is old, no matter what happens, the Yan family's army has fallen into the hands of that kid in his family, that Yan Xiaxuan, hum." ”

Luo Fuzhou obviously didn't like Yan Xiaxuan very much, and he continued: "That kid is a ruthless and arrogant person, but I also have to admit that he has some ability. ”

Wang Xuzhi nodded: "Yes, Commander, I also think that the second young man of the Yan family is indeed powerful, so why don't you, Commander?" ”
