Chapter 404: Wei Ruo rescued him in the snowstorm
Lu Yuhong was the first to ask: "Why are you here, Miss Wei?" ”
"I came back from the wasteland, caught up with the heavy snow, and it was too dangerous to continue on my way, so I rested on the spot." Wei Ruo replied.
Lu Yuhong asked again: "Are you planning to set up camp here?" ”
"Yes, the wind and snow are very heavy and the road is dangerous and unpredictable. The terrain is open and there is no risk of avalanches, so as long as you stay warm and stay warm, you are not likely to be in danger. Wei Ruo analyzed.
This is indeed the truth, and the six of them all showed expressions of approval.
It's just that you need to have enough supplies with you.
Like them......
Wei Ruo asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Yuan Wangyuan, who was beside Lu Yuhong, replied on behalf of several people: "We left to go down the mountain in the morning when it was just snowing, and we didn't think that the snow would fall so much, and we thought that we should be able to enter the city soon by going down the mountain to the stable at the foot of the mountain to retrieve the horses." I didn't think that when I was at the foot of the mountain, the snow was already very thick, and it was more dangerous to go up again, so I decided to ride back to the city, but I didn't expect that I was only halfway there, and I couldn't continue to move forward. ”
Yuan Wangyuan's face was embarrassed when he spoke.
Wei Ruo was keenly aware of the difficulties of several people, such a heavy snow, several people were not only thinly dressed, but also only had a few horses by their side, and they probably didn't bring anything to eat.
So Wei Ruo took the initiative to speak: "If you don't dislike it, just rest in my shed for a while and bake the fire." ”
Wei Ruo took the initiative to invite, saving a few people the embarrassment of speaking.
"Is that okay?" Liu Yu asked with some surprise.
"Naturally." Wei Ruodao.
Lu Yuhong said with a smile: "Liu Yu, what are you talking about, Brother Yichen is here, they are brothers and sisters, what are you afraid of with him?" ”
Liu Yu smiled: "It's true that Brother Yichen is here, but we are not related to Miss Wei, and we are very grateful to be taken in by the eldest girl." ”
"You're right!"
Lu Yuhong said, untied the jade pendant on his waist, and wanted to give it to Wei Ruo as a thank you gift.
Wei Ruo naturally didn't dare to take it.
Wei Yichen stopped Lu Yuhong: "Brother Lu, men and women don't kiss." ”
Lu Yuhong was stunned for a moment before he reacted, it was very impolite for a man to give his jade pendant to a woman.
So he smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry Miss Wei, I don't mean to be frivolous, it's because I didn't think so much about it for a while, so I just want to express my gratitude." ”
Wei Ruo knew Lu Yuhong's rough character, so he wouldn't bother with him.
"Lu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, you guys find a place to sit first, Mei Mei and I will cook a pot of broth, and everyone will drink some soup to warm up."
After explaining to a few people, Wei Ruo went back to the carriage to get his things.
After Wei Ruo got into the carriage, Yuan Wangyuan patted Xu Fengyuan, who was silent all the time, on the shoulder with a smile: "Brother Xu, you still need to say something you want to say, don't suffocate yourself." ”
"I don't have much to say." Xu Fengyuan said.
"Brother Xu, your mouth can deceive people, but you can't deceive people when you look at the eyes of the eldest girl of the Wei family just now." Yuan Wangyuan debunked.
"Brother Yuan, I'll go find a few stones to use as seats, and you can set up our horses."
Xu Fengyuan diverted the topic, then handed the reins of his mount to Yuan Wangyuan, and then walked away.
Yuan Wangyuan shook his head helplessly with a smile, and then his eyes fell on Wei Yichen, who was also silent.
It's also strange to say, this Xu Fengyuan is understandable when he sees the eldest girl of the Wei family, why is Wei Yichen also silent?
Obviously they are brother and sister, but they don't seem to know each other very well, Wei Yichen and Miss Wei don't look as familiar with Lu Yuhong as they are.
After a short time, Xu Fengyuan brought stones and horses were placed around the shed.
After everyone sat on the stone and roasted the fire for a while, an enticing fragrance wafted from the steaming pot.
Lu Yuhong was the first to hold back, and while smelling the fragrance of food, he asked Wei Ruo, who had just gotten off the carriage:
"Big girl, what's boiling in this pot? Why is it so fragrant? ”
"Mutton soup, it's cold, drink mutton soup to keep warm." Wei Ruo replied.
"It smells so good! My stomach growled. Lu Yuhong said.
"That's definitely because Lu Gongzi, you're hungry." Wei Ruo said.
"It's true that I'm hungry, we haven't eaten anything since morning, but the smell of your broth is not fake at all." Lu Yuhong commented.
Yuan Wangyuan on the side teased: "Master Lu, don't be tempted to steal food." ”
Lu Yuhong said angrily: "You can put 10,000 hearts, I will never move before the big girl says that you can eat it." Moving chopsticks before the food is cooked is disrespectful to the food. ”
Wei Ruo smiled, and then handed a cloth bag taken out of the car to Lu Yuhong.
"You take this and roast it on the brazier to warm it, and eat it in mutton soup in a while." Wei Ruodao.
Lu Yuhong opened the cloth bag and saw that it was filled with bread bigger than the plate of their faces.
Several people did not hesitate, and one took one.
While a few people were roasting the fire, Xiumei took a few more cloaks and blankets out and distributed them to a few people.
"Although these cloaks are women's styles, they are all new and have never been worn, so if a few sons don't mind, they can be put on to warm up." Wei Ruo added.
Several people were not polite or hesitated, and one took one and wrapped it around his body.
More important than etiquette and face, or life.
With a cloak and blanket to keep out the cold, and a brazier to keep warm, the six of them felt a lot warmer.
After a while, the mutton soup was cooked, and Wei Ruo served each person a bowl of soup, and put two large pieces of mutton in each bowl.
Seeing the dishes and chopsticks that Wei Ruoxin took out, Lu Yuhong couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Big girl, the things you brought in this car are really complete." ”
"I often go out to open up wasteland, where there is a shortage of supplies, so I used to bring more with me." Wei Ruo explained.
In fact, these things are not all carried on the carriage, no matter how large the carriage is, the space is limited, and the things brought cannot be so complete.
Especially something like mutton, which is not easy to preserve, will break down within a few days of being put on the carriage.
"The big girl was prescient! Today, thanks to the big girl, we were able to keep warm from the cold. Yuan Wangyuan said.
Wei Ruo smiled: "Drink it while it's hot." ”
A few people were not polite and drank while it was hot.
I don't know if it's because I'm too hungry, or if the mutton soup cooked by Wei Ruo is better than elsewhere, and several people's faces showed amazing and satisfied looks.
"Big girl, your mutton soup is so delicious, it's the best mutton soup I've ever tasted! And this bread is also more fragrant than other breads! Lu Yuhong exclaimed.
