Chapter 18 The Visitor
With a natural breeding base, more than half of it has been successful, and then you just have to wait for the quail to lay eggs.
In order to survive this transition period, Xianghua still went up the mountain to dig herbs, and still entrusted Chenggang to sell, Chenggang refused to accept the hard-earned money at first, but he couldn't stand Cheng Linchang running to his house every time to send money, and he could only reluctantly accept it.
At noon that day, Xianghua's family was eating, and when she heard someone outside calling her name, she agreed as soon as she heard that it was Chenggang, and when she went out, she saw that Chenggang was followed by a person.
"Zhao Gongzi?"
Xianghua blinked, wondering if she was dazzled, "Why are you here?" ”
Zhao Xu led the chasing wind to enter, and it was not to enter, so he could only laugh awkwardly, Chenggang wanted to help lead the horse, but the chasing wind turned his head and was unwilling, Xianghua couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only go over and invite people to bring the horse in.
Cheng Linchang also followed, and said honestly: "Ah...... Zhao ...... Zhao Gongzi, coming, Peng ...... Blooming ......"
Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Uncle doesn't have to be polite, it's me who came uninvited and bothered you." ”
Xianghua saw that Xiangmiao Donglin had come out, so she introduced them one by one, and Zhao Xu also greeted them one by one.
"Taro? Why didn't the taro come out? Xianghua asked Xiangmiao.
Donglin said: "Brother Taro said that he was a little uncomfortable, go and take a rest." ”
Zhao Xu took down the two boxes from Chasing Feng and said with a smile: "Fortunately, Miss Xianghua came to the rescue that time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." My father and mother told me to pass by here again, I must come to thank you, I don't know what to buy, so I bought some snacks and fabrics in the town, I like to eat snacks, and the fabrics can be used, and I hope not to dislike them. ”
Cheng Linchang's face was flattered, and he waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Xianghua didn't do anything, Zhao Gongzi will take these things back." Last time, the county magistrate also entertained us, and the villain was really ashamed. ”
Zhao Xu laughed and put the box at the door: "Then this time it should be regarded as a thank you gift for chasing the wind, uncle, don't shirk." Sister Xiangmiao came to see, there are flower-shaped snacks, and there are a lot of beautiful fabrics that can be used to make clothes and skirts, do you like it? ”
Xiangmiao didn't know the identity of this person, but when she saw that her father and sister were respectful, she said honestly: "I like it." ”
"Where's Brother Donglin?"
Donglin also said obediently: "I like it." ”
Zhao Xu smiled and narrowed his eyes: "That's it, I thought I chose the wrong gift." ”
Xianghua pulled her father's sleeve and whispered: "Dad, you just take it, these things are really not expensive to him, if you bring them back, he will toss them." ”
Cheng Linchang thought about it like this, and finally agreed.
Xianghua asked, "Zhao Gongzi can eat?" ”
Zhao Xu smiled: "Not yet, I'll come here as soon as I get here." ”
"Don't dislike our coarse tea and light rice, you can eat it together." Xianghua invited him into the house.
Cheng Linchang waved his hand again and again: "If it doesn't work, I'll buy a chicken!" ”
Zhao Xu said with a smile: "I also sleep with my father, don't bother, I can't wait to kill chickens." ”
The group talked and laughed and entered the house, and Taro showed half of his face from the bedroom, staring at this side silently.
Zhao Xu's upbringing is very good, although he is a noble son in the capital, he does not dislike the tea and rice of the countryside at all, that is, ordinary green vegetables and radishes and tofu, and he also eats very fragrantly. He looked calm, not a little restrained, and Cheng Linchang was driven by him to gradually become less nervous.
"Is Zhao Gongzi going to the border again?" Cheng Linchang asked cautiously.
Zhao Xu said: "Uncle, don't call me like that anymore, you can call me Xu'er." ”
Cheng Linchang waved his hand again: "How dare you?" You are the son of General Zhao! ”
Xianghua thought her father was funny, so she smiled and said, "Dad is a general when he opens and closes his mouth, why don't you just call him 'little general'?" ”
Cheng Linchang slapped his thigh and smiled: "This is good!" Then I'll call you Little General! ”
Zhao Xu shook his head and smiled: "I don't care, my father is strict with me, but I don't dare to call him that." Xianghua, don't call me Zhao Gongzi, I'm older than you, you just call me brother, how about it? ”
Before Xianghua could speak, Xiangmiao clapped her hands and cheered: "Okay, I've always wanted a brother!" ”
Xianghua pinched her little nose angrily, squeezed her eyebrows and said, "Wow you, sister, am I not good to you?" ”
Xiangmiao smiled and said, "Hello sister, if you have another brother, your sister won't work so hard!" ”
Xianghua was moved in her heart and rubbed her little head.
"Then it's decided!" Zhao Xu got up and said, "I still have something to do and I have to go first!" ”
Cheng Linchang reacted and hurriedly went to the back room to find something, but their house is now facing the bottom of the pot, how can there be anything to send? In the end, Xianghua realized that he didn't bring dry food, so he brought him several fragrant taro.
Zhao Xu took it happily, he was used to being rough, he would eat dry food if he had it, and he would be hungry if he didn't.
Zhao ...... Big brother", Xianghua walked up to him and smiled, and asked quietly, "What major events have happened in the capital recently?" ”
"Big deal?"
"It's just that what happened to the family of the dignitaries?" Xianghua's eyes rolled around and added, "Some time ago, we had a robber here, saying that a rich family was in trouble. ”
Zhao Xu thought about it carefully and clapped his hands suddenly: "Speaking of which, I heard that a concubine in the Yang Mansion took her child home to visit relatives, passed by here, and something happened to her." ”
Xianghua hurriedly asked, "Is the child a man or a woman?" ”
"I heard it's a son...... What does this do, you ask? Zhao Xu looked at her curiously.
Xianghua smiled, "It's nothing, just ask casually." Did the Yang Mansion send someone over? ”
"Come and get the body. Alas, these robbers are abominable, and one day I will wipe them out! ”
Xianghua held the chasing wind and clenched her little fist at Zhao Xu: "Brother Zhao, come on!" ”
Zhao Xu smiled loudly, rode away chasing the wind, and several people saw them back, only to find taro standing in the yard.
Taro glanced at Xianghua with a gloomy face, and whispered, "You come with me." ”
The two left the village and walked all the way to Qingfeng Mountain. When he reached a flat place halfway up the mountain, Taro stopped and asked, "Why did you ask Zhao Xu those words today?" ”
Xianghuayun said lightly: "I'm just asking casually." If you're afraid to see him, that means he might know you, so aren't you a dignitary in the capital? ”
Taro looked at her in silence.
Xianghua had no choice but to purse her lips and change her words: "Okay, I know I'm wrong, I shouldn't ask." But since they've been here, haven't they found you're still alive? ”
"How could they possibly know?" Taro smiled coldly, "I'm afraid that the people who chased and killed me have found out, and they may not be able to detect it." ”
Xianghua closed her mouth, and her eyes silently slid to the other side: Good horn, she doesn't understand the rich family's house fight.
“…… But Zhao Xu shouldn't know you, you don't have to hide from him. She said.
"Hide from him? Who said I hid from him? Taro stood with his hands in his hands and said, "I just don't want to see him." ”
