Chapter 36: The Meaning of Filial Piety

Lan Xiaoqiu knelt in front of the marshal and held the hilt of the sword and begged: "Ruosu has no mother since she was a child, and Ruosu doesn't dare to forget what her mother left behind, that is her only support." And Ruosu has always been afraid that the marshal will forget the original match. Ruosu is a filial daughter, but she is a little reckless, and she begs the marshal to forgive Miss Ruosu for the sake of Ruosu who has lost her mother for many years and has not received her mother's love. ”

Hearing the word 'mother', Ruosu's tears fell urgently, blurring her vision, and her mother was dying in front of her, and she said fiercely: "In this life, except for Lan Xiaoqiu, I have no sister." ”

"Ruosu." The marshal was angry, and saw Ruosu wipe the long sword in his hand away, leaving a bloody mark on her arm, and the marshal hurriedly threw down the long sword in his hand, but did not call Ruosu back. Cheng Rong patted her chest and said, "Ah, this eldest lady's temper comes up, no one can pull it, it's really scary." ”

Hongyu took Cheng Rong's arm and said, "Where is she like a girl's family, it's good if someone wants her." ”

After hearing this, the marshal turned around and said angrily: "Shut up, no one is allowed to move the kitchen without my order." ”

Seeing the marshal rushing out of the door angrily, the mother and daughter glanced at each other and gasped.

Lan Xiaoqiu chased after him, and Ruosu's arm was already dripping blood along his arm. Ruo Su held back tears and sat under the tree, Lan Xiaoqiu didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to tear the corners of her clothes and bandage Ruo Su while asking, "Does it hurt?" ”

"This pain is nothing, it can't compare to the pain." Ruo Su stubbornly held back her tears.

Lan Xiaoqiu said: "I know that you have to be strong, but the marshal is not easy, it is difficult for the Qing official to cut off family affairs, he just wants you to live in peace." Just now I heard the marshal reprimand them, saying that no one was allowed to touch the kitchen. ”

"That's because they saw me bleed." Ruo Su sneered.

"Have you thought about it, today you are too impulsive, I think the saddest thing in the world is that the father hurt his daughter with his own hands. Now the most heart-wrenching thing is probably the marshal, you are his heart, and now you have his heart and blood under his sword, and the blood you shed is his heart bleeding. It can be seen that the marshal has not forgotten your biological mother. Lan Xiaoqiu comforted Ruosu.

Ruo Su seemed to ease up a bit: "I was too impulsive, but at that time I couldn't control myself, thinking of my mother's tragic death in front of me, I couldn't forgive my father for remarrying." ”

"Ruosu, you're actually quite selfish." Lan Xiaoqiu held Ruosu's hand and continued: "There are many kinds of filial piety, and it is not that forcing parents not to marry is filial piety. That would torture them instead, I believe that the marshal's love for his wife is very deep, deep, otherwise, how could he set a precedent and take you to the battlefield to fight? He can raise you as a big lady with good food and drink. I believe that on the battlefield, he can't kill the enemy wholeheartedly, no matter how strong your martial arts are, he is most worried about you. ”

Ruo Su listened to Lan Xiaoqiu's words, and his father was distressed when he saw that he was injured, as well as the legend of the father and daughter soldiers on the battlefield who rescued him single-handedly when he was intercepted by the chasing soldiers.

Ruo Su looked at Lan Xiaoqiu and said, "But my father rarely mentions my mother, I'm really afraid that he will slowly forget his mother." ”

"Hey, especially a man's love, how can it be on his lips all day long? Just to say that the marshal has not remarried for more than ten years means that he has not let go of your mother. You know how painful it is to think about a dead person. People can't change their fate, Madame has been dead for so many years, I'm afraid the marshal also regards you as his spiritual sustenance. You're going to get married in a few months, can you bear to let him die alone? I think that if the dead lady knew, she would not be at ease in heaven. Lan Xiaoqiu analyzed.

Lan Xiaoqiu continued: "Everyone has the right to choose happiness, how can a person who was once so important in his life say that he forgets? It's the moment when you can't let go of seeing your lady block the knife for you, so you impose this will on the marshal who has been silently supporting, because you want to use this method to make yourself feel at ease. ”

Ruosu said sadly: "Maybe you're right, I've always hated myself, hated myself for not being able to protect my mother at that time." ”

"But your mother saved you, this is her greatest wish, I think she died for you without regrets. People will die, I don't know when or how I will die, since more than ten years have passed, why can't you look away? She is a good mother, you are her good daughter, but why can't you be a good daughter of the marshal? Why can't you be considerate of him? Lan Xiaoqiu bandaged Ruosu's wound and gently put it back.

Ruo Su looked at Lan Xiaoqiu with tears in her eyes: "Sister Lan, am I really excessive?" ”

Lan Xiaoqiu shook his head: "No, in fact, you are not too much to anyone, it's just that you are too yourself, you can cry if you want to, just cry." You are always so strong, everyone has a vulnerable side, if you don't vent it, it will get deeper and deeper, and your strength will eventually be broken by vulnerability. ”

Ruosu sobbed and threw herself into Lan Xiaoqiu's arms: "Sister Lan, I miss my mother." Woowoowoo~~~~~~~"

Lan Xiaoqiu hugged Ruosu, but touched her wound and hurriedly asked, "Does it hurt?" ”

"It hurts, it really hurts." The two hugged each other and sat under the tree, the sunset that day was red, and the tears of that day were like the mouth of the river bursting the embankment rushing and surging, and the marshal who stood in the distance and watched his daughter cry bitterly also sighed at the sunset: "Ruosu mother, our daughter has grown up." ”

Seeing that Ruosu was in a slightly better mood, Lan Xiaoqiu said: "I have long said that I will come to the capital to cook something for you, and when I am in a bad mood, it will be better to eat some sweets." ”

Ruo Su asked curiously, "Is it really that magical?" ”

"Food is a magical thing, and it's amazing that food can make life exist in this world, isn't it? Ruosu, where is the milk sold here? Lan Xiaoqiu asked.

Ruosu thought for a while and said: "There seems to be one on the street, but the business is very poor, and the owner of the shop is a nomad, but the people in the capital are not used to drinking, and I am not used to drinking." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu asked for directions, and sure enough, she saw the owner of a milk shop swatting flies boringly, and when she saw a guest, she asked, "What is this girl going to buy?" ”

"Don't you have milk for sale here? How could there be anything else? The owner of the milk shop smiled: "Don't hide it from the girl, since I came to the capital, business has not been good, and I have been losing money for three consecutive months, so I want to sell the things at home, and then go back to my hometown to herd cattle and sheep." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu looked at what the boss was pointing at, and said excitedly: "There is actually cheese and butter?" Jerky! God, I thought there weren't any, great. ”

Lan Xiaoqiu excitedly grabbed the boss's hand: "You can't go, you go, what should I do." ”

The boss scratched his head: "Is the girl also from our place?" How do you recognize these things? ”

Lan Xiaoqiu was so excited, she felt that she had found the true meaning of life again......

Lan Xiaoqiu bought a large bag and a small bag, causing Ruosu to hurriedly instruct the girl to help Lan Xiaoqiu to carry it, Lan Xiaoqiu excitedly held Ruosu's shoulder and still couldn't hide her excitement: "Great, I thought only our hometown had these things, but I didn't expect him to have been to the Western Regions, even the cream ......" Lan Xiaoqiu realized that he got carried away, Ruosu frowned slightly, the wound seemed to be twisted by himself, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm so happy, I forgot." ”

"It seems that Sister Lan is going to show her skills, if she can eat what Sister Lan makes, she is willing to hurt, what did Sister Lan buy?" Ruosu looked through the items placed in the kitchen.

Ruo Su said: "Sister Lan, these things are so unpalatable, I remember that when the shopkeeper first came to the capital, people in the capital rushed to buy them." But later, everyone said that he was a liar, and the things he sold smelled weird. I see what you buy is the same as what I bought when I first started. ”

Lan Xiaoqiu shook his head: "You just don't do it right, these are all delicious, I guarantee you haven't eaten them." ”

Ruosu nodded, and Lan Xiaoqiu was busy in the kitchen alone.

Lan Xiaoqiu was very happy to do it, because he had not made pastries well after coming to Qichao for so many days, and now that he had purchased a complete range of materials, he could finally show his skills.

The subordinates of the Ruosu family only listened to Lan Xiaoqiu's tinkling in the kitchen, but they didn't know how Lan Xiaoqiu did it.

After an hour, the sky was already dark, Lan Xiaoqiu took two freshly baked pastries, handed one to the maid and said, "Send this to Miss." ”

"Aren't you going to deliver it to Miss?" The maid took the pastry, and Lan Xiaoqiu shook her head: "This one will be sent to Hongyu." ”

The two were lighting up the room, and Hongyu seemed to be complaining about Ruosu's scratching of herself. Hearing Lan Xiaoqiu knock on the door, the maid next to Hongyu went to open the door, Lan Xiaoqiu put the pastry on the table and said, "Miss Ruosu is very sorry for today's incident, she asked me to make something for Miss and Mrs. to taste, I hope Mrs. and Miss don't blame." ”

Cheng Rong stood up and looked at the tempting pastries on the table: "We don't dare, we don't have that blessing, you better take it quickly, Hongyu can't swallow it even if his throat is injured." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu understood that Hongyu's wound was not deep, but it was only a shallow scratch on the skin, and it was still no problem to eat, Lan Xiaoqiu said: "These pastries have never been eaten by Mrs. and Miss, and the store that sells these things will leave in a few days, so it may be ......"

Hongyu looked at the pastries on the table and drooled: "Mother, it's better to taste it, I'm hungry anyway." ”

Cheng Rong glared at Hongyu, but Hongyu ignored Cheng Rong and sat at the table first, and Lan Xiaoqiu brought the pastry for Hongyu: "Miss, please use it." ”

Hongyu pointed to a bowl of dessert and asked, "What is this?" ”

I saw that the bowl of dessert was fine and white and pure, and the bowl was like a white jelly, without a drop of excess water, and various fruit particles were placed on the white skin, red, yellow and green were very beautiful.

Lan Xiaoqiu replied: "Double skin milk is made from milk, egg whites and cane sugar. ”

"Is it milk? I've drunk it before, it's very fishy, and we people in the capital are very unaccustomed to it. I see you, it's just a faΓ§ade. ”
