The courtyard was filled with a biting cold.

Several women looked at Xia He, who had always been strong, with tears in their eyes.

Ah Chi pinched the newly made buckles and looked over one by one, only to see Cui Jinniang frowning and not knowing what to think, An Niannian's calm face was gloomy, and Liu Tianxing stood out from behind An Niannian and shed tears.

While crying, Liu Tianxing also asked:

"Xia He, don't just cry, you mentioned Sister Qingying, did something happen to her?"

Xia He pursed his lips, but he didn't know what to say after all.

It seems that as soon as some words come out, all the things she has over the years will be scattered.

So what is she? What are her children?

The courtyard door was opened, and a little maid hurriedly ran in: "Sister Achi, the young lady is back, Sister Tu Nan sent me to ask if you have any medicine for bruises." ”

"The girl is hurt?"

Ah Chi, who was wearing a cyan bichia, stood up abruptly and walked out briskly with his skirt in his hand.

There were only a few concubine rooms left in the courtyard, and no one spoke for a while.

After a while, Cui Jinniang held the corner of the handkerchief and said slowly: "The second young lady is injured, why should we concubines also visit?" ”

After finding a reason for herself, she raised her feet and walked outside the courtyard gate.

With her taking the lead, the rest of the people followed.

But I never thought that when I arrived at the main courtyard, I only saw Shen Shiqing, who was sitting on a cushion and eating persimmons with his feet crossed.

Zhao Surui, who was in Shen Shiqing's body, was not in a very good mood at this time, as the king of a country, how could he have any mercy for a servant girl who was sent by the master's family? But Tu Nan recognized the woman named Qingying and begged to save people for her.

He knew that there were very few people he could use at hand, and Tu Nan was the most useful of Shen San's three maidservants, so he was naturally not stingy with this favor.

But seeing that Pei Feng sent someone to find a doctor, Ah Chi went to find medicine, and Tu Nan was also guarding in the side courtyard, he felt uncomfortable again, and secretly wondered if he was usually too kind to these maids, so that they actually left him aside.

If his chickens, dogs, cats and mice in the palace dared to forget him for an irrelevant person, he would definitely kick their ass.

Squinting his eyes at these concubines who didn't have any good intentions at first glance, Zhao Surui wiped the persimmon water on his hands with a handkerchief:

"How many of you came here in a hurry, did you hear that someone was injured and wanted to mourn me?"

Cui Jinniang took a step back, and saw that the other three people were all closed like quails with the maids behind her, and she also lowered her head and refused to be the one who came out first.

Zhao Surui didn't plan to let them go: "What? Can't say anything? Needless to say, did you see the stone in the corner? Since you all have nothing to do, go and crack it into ten pound-sized pieces for me. ”

The stone in the corner of the courtyard was dropped when the yard was repaired in the early years, and it was about two feet long and one foot wide, as high as a person's calf, and it weighed three or four hundred pounds.

There were no special equipment, and the women of them could not get the stone.

Liu Tianxing's eyes were still red, she bit her lower lip, and said aggrievedly: "Young lady, we made clothes all morning today, it's not like nothing to do." ”

She took two steps forward and showed the young lady the cotton wool between her fingernails: "I tore the cotton all morning, and at first I thought it was quite interesting, but my wrist hurt later." ”

Zhao Surui waved his hand to stop her: "Don't come in front of me, why don't you have any rules at all?" ”

Liu Tianxing stared at the young lady in front of her with round eyes, and her voice was sweet and soft: "Young lady, you are much more majestic than before, and you are more fierce than before." ”

Once upon a time? Zhao Surui sneered: "Then what was I like before?" ”

"The young lady used to be fine!" Liu Tianxing scratched her face a little embarrassed, "I was still young when the young lady first got married, I sent something to the young lady's courtyard, and you also gave me candy to eat, hawthorn cake, amber walnuts...... There are also persimmon cakes, all of which are made by you, young lady, and I have never eaten a better snack. Later, I was given to the second young master by my wife, because I was timid and stupid, and the kitchen bullied me and didn't let me eat enough, so the young lady asked Tu Nan to vent my anger for me, and also used the ashes in the charcoal basin to bake horseshoe for me to eat. ”

Speaking of the delicious food she had eaten with the young lady in the past, Liu Tianxing was leisurely, took a few steps forward, and almost drooled coquettishly:

"Young lady, when will you make persimmon cakes again? That bean paste persimmon cake you made is fragrant and soft, and I still think about it ...... now."

Zhao Surui watched this stupid girl swallow her saliva bluntly, and suddenly felt that the persimmon in her mouth was not sweet.

Persimmon cake stuffed with bean paste?

What's that smell?

Is it really that delicious?

"Is it that delicious?" By the time he came back to his senses, he had already asked.

Liu Tianxing nodded her head like a bow playing cotton.

Zhao Surui put down the half-eaten persimmon in his hand.

Ah Chi hurried back with the box filled with medicine, and saw his own girl beckoning to him: "Ah Chi, go and tell Tu Nan that I want to eat persimmon cake and bean paste stuffing today." ”

"Yes, girl."

Entering the house and putting the medicine box away, Ah Chi came out and said: "Girl, Qingying has taken the medicine, and she looks better than before, but the Tulang Zhong who Pei Feng went to find came to see her and said that the most important thing about her is that she has not been properly disposed of after giving birth, and she is still bleeding, let us go to the town or Yanjing City to find a stable woman to see." Pei Feng asked the tenants, and they all said that there was a good stable woman in the town, and Pei Feng had already ridden to find it. ”

Zhao Surui snorted, he should have known.

Anyway, he allowed Tu Nan to save people, and he didn't care if it cost more.

Hearing the word "Qingying", Xia He raised his head in disbelief and stared at Ah Chi with his eyes.

Ah Chi noticed her gaze, glanced at her, and had an idea in his heart: "Girl, we don't have enough manpower, Aunt Xia used to be very good with Qingying, so it's better to leave Qingying to her to take care of." ”

This method is good, Zhao Surui, who was worried about the persimmon cake, waved his hand and agreed.

Liu Tianxing wanted to follow Xia He to see Qingying, but was stopped by him.

"Tell me again, what else was delicious in the past?"

He wrote them all down and asked Tunan to do it for him!

He is dignified Emperor Zhaode, do you want anything delicious?

Hum!

On the road between the two courtyards, Ah Chi walked hurriedly, but his mouth was gentle:

"Aunt Xia, the Qingying was rescued by my girl and Tu Nan when they went out to ride a horse, and Tu Nan said that she saw the Qing Ying on the edge of a broken grass shed...... It was also her fate that she met my girl, otherwise she would have been beaten to death by a few splashes. ”

Hearing the word "death", Xia He was stunned.

Ah Chi glanced at her and did not speak.

The girl didn't care about Xie Feng'an's back house, but she couldn't help but care about the girl, Qingying was clever and docile, and was valued by Mrs. Bo, but she suddenly ended up with a Zhuangzi, Xia He benefited from it, and naturally she was the most likely person to do something, and then thought of Xia He cried when she mentioned Qingying when she was making clothes before, and Ah Chi became more and more sure in her heart.

Her girl asked her to be the big housekeeper in this village, she naturally has to share worries for the girl everywhere, Xia He is a strong person, I don't know how much trouble she caused to the girl by Cui Jinniang's instigation, if she can suppress it through Qingying, she will live up to the girl's expectations.

When the two entered the side courtyard, they smelled a smell of medicine, Ah Chi said: "This is the prescription prescribed by Tulang Zhong before, which relieved the pain of Qingying, Lang Zhong said that Qingying can neither live blood nor stop bleeding now, so she can only take a breath to let her boil." ”

As he spoke, someone in the room lifted the curtain and came out, holding a basin of dirty water in his hand.

It was Tu Nan, who still had a sword hanging from his waist.

Glancing at Xia He, Tu Nan said to Ah Chi: "I just scrubbed her body, and now I'm going to cook for the girl, you have to worry about it, Qingying...... It's really unbearable now, don't be scared. ”

Xia He's body trembled involuntarily.

Every word Ah Chi and Tu Nan said was like a silver embroidery needle, piercing her heart to a thousand holes.

"Aunt Xia, Qingying will be handed over to you."

Ah Chi lifted the curtain and let Xia He into the room, leaving her alone to face her long-lost conscience.

He turned around and walked to the corner of the courtyard and said to the little maid who was burning the fire: "Be vigilant, you listen carefully to what Aunt Xia and Qingying said before telling me." ”

Out of the side courtyard, she met Tu Nan who was waiting there.

"You're not going to cook for the girl?"

"I have a few words to say to you."

Tu Nan held the sword and leaned against the wall, quite like a hero in the book, but she was born with beautiful eyebrows, and at first glance it seemed to be more like a little jasper disguised as a hero, and only when she really started to do it did people realize that she really had kung fu on her body.

Looking at Ah Chi, her expression was a little dark:

"Don't you think the girl is different from before?"

Ah Chi thought that Tu Nan was going to tell her what was important, but when she heard this, she waved her hand: "The girl is injured, and she can't remember anything from the past, didn't you already know it." ”

Hearing Ah Chi say this, Tu Nan frowned slightly, her eyes flashed slightly, and she asked Ah Chi again: "I don't remember, do you remember anything?" ”

Tu Nan's mind kept recalling the girl's expression when she looked at the green warbler.

Although her girl is ...... is still a pure and kind woman who is in trouble and will run around for the suffering of others, how can she look at an innocent person who has been mutilated so indifferently with such indifferent and ruthless eyes?

On the way back, she carried the green warbler on her horse, and watched the girl ride her horse to drive away the broken skins.

A thought swirled in her mind.

Did her girl lose her memory? Or have you lost your heart?

Ah Chi looked at Tu Nan's appearance, lowered his head and smiled: "I think the girl is also very good now." ”

Tu Nan was about to refute, but he heard Ah Chi sigh and say:

"It's been seven years, and the girl hasn't been so happy as she is now."

"Tunan, I know that the girl has told you to do a lot of things in private, but the girl doesn't say it, and I never ask. But I feel sorry for the girl, and sometimes I even hope that the girl is a mediocre person like Xia He Cui Jinniang who only focuses on the favor of the rich and noble man, and she will not have such a hard time. Now that the girl has forgotten what happened in the past, I know that she will remember it one day, because she is our girl, but before that day, I just want the girl to live a happy life. God owes us girls. ”

Tu Nan still had countless words to say in his heart, but he was sealed by Ah Chi's short sentences.

Raising his eyes, Tu Nan saw the vines that had long since died on the courtyard wall.

Closing her eyes and sighing, she only answered:

"Okay."

In the evening, Zhao Surui ate the bean paste stuffed persimmon cake made by Tu Nan as he wished, which was really soft and delicious, ten times more pleasant than eating a persimmon with an empty mouth.

"Tunan, I heard that I used to cook? How does my cooking skills compare to yours? ”

Eating the third persimmon cake, Zhao Surui asked casually.

Tu Nan smiled and said: "Girl, don't you remember, my cooking skills are still taught to you after you read the ancient books, I am just a cook for you." ”

Zhao Surui looked down at the half persimmon cake in his hand.

This...... Just a cook?

How good is Shen Sanqu's craftsmanship?

"And what was the best dish I used to cook?"

Tu Nan thought for a moment and said, "The shrimp roll (1) made by the girl is extremely delicious. ”

Ah Chi said on the side: "I prefer the A and B paste made by the girl (2)." ”

"Speaking of A and B paste, the venison that girl made that year was really full of fire."

Even Pei Feng, who was silent, said very seriously: "The mutton noodle soup made by the girl is excellent." ”

Ah Chi immediately chimed in: "Yes! The mutton noodle soup made by the girl is a must-have in the world! ”

Tu Nan also nodded repeatedly.

Zhao Surui's face was expressionless, and he pinched a mouthful of persimmon cake in his hand to eat it, and he didn't eat it.

He had never heard of any green shrimp rolls and A and B paste, and it must be a vassal and elegant practice.

As for venison, Guanglu Temple has to eat venison every three or five days, but that's it, where can it be delicious?

In the dead of night, the night rain is silent, and it is a good time to sleep.

Zhao Surui, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes suddenly.

Shen Sanzhu's mutton noodle soup, how delicious is that?
