234. Go up the tree together
"Madame, Madame, Girl, she ......"
The maid went to give Feng Zhiheng a handkerchief, returned to the house like a ghost, and whispered in a panic in Zhou's ear.
After hearing this, Zhou frowned slightly, stood up and said, "I'll take a look." ”
Zhou came to the courtyard and asked Pomegranate, "Where is Ah Heng?" ”
The pomegranate trembled and pointed at the plane tree in the courtyard.
So, next, Zhou saw the famous scene that shocked her.
Feng Zhiheng, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhongjing, was holding the trunk of the tree at this time, climbing up like a monkey.
It's no wonder that the Zhou family didn't recognize their own daughter at first, and even Zhen and Xie Chuntao and others didn't recognize it.
Feng Zhiheng was wearing Erlang's coarse cloth clothes, went to the hairpin ring, and hung it on his shoulders with green silk knotted into a thick braid, and looked over from behind, Where is there a little bit of the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and he is a country boy.
Xiao Fuyuan, Bai Zhaomei and a few other children stood under the tree to cheer Feng Zhiheng on.
"Madam, look girl." Pomegranate said anxiously.
"Don't talk, don't scare Ah Heng." Zhou said.
Pomegranate closes her mouth.
"Sister Heng, come on." Xiao Fuyuan stood under the tree and cheered Feng Zhiheng with his face up.
Feng Zhiheng climbed sweaty, and finally climbed to the top, sitting on the branch of the tree and panting, but with a comfortable smile on his face.
Zhou's heart rose to his throat.
"Xiao Yuanbao, am I very good, I learned to climb trees with my fifth brother last year, and I can still remember it this year." Feng Zhiheng laughed and lowered his head to Xiao Fuyuan under the tree and asked.
Zhou looked at the girl sitting on the branch with mixed tastes.
She is a little girl, but she never knew that her daughter could climb a tree, and she climbed so slippery.
"Little Yuanbao, do you climb up too?" Feng Zhiheng asked.
Xiao Fuyuan stands under the tree, and she will climb the tree. When she took Feng Zhiheng into her room to change her clothes just now, she also changed into the short clothes and pants that Qiu Niang sewed for her, and when she heard Feng Zhiheng call her, she hugged the tree and climbed it.
Bai Zhaomei and Da Lang stood under the tree and stared up, guarding her safety at all times.
Soon, Xiao Fuyuan climbed up, climbed the branch, and sat on the branch next to Feng Zhiheng.
"Sister, climbing a tree in the countryside is nothing." Zhen said, and the name of Zhou has also changed.
Zhou nodded, looking at Feng Zhiheng on the tree with mixed tastes.
Her daughter has been wild since she was a child, and she never restricts her. At first, she was reluctant to let her daughter come to Huaicheng's mother's house to learn the rules, but she couldn't bear the orders of the old marquis and the queen mother.
This time when I came to my mother's house and saw my daughter walking, sitting and lying, she did have the style of the daughter of the Hou Mansion, but the whole person did not have the same life as before.
Feng Zhiheng's eyes turned red when he saw her, and the whole person was depressed and lifeless.
She was distressed and helpless.
After arriving at Shenshu Village, the girl immediately became lively, and chattered non-stop when she sat in the sedan chair.
"Sister, look at the birds in the sky." Feng Zhiheng looked up at the sky.
"It's a swallow." Xiao Fuyuan couldn't help but hum, "Little Swallow, wear flower clothes, come here every spring......"
Feng Zhiheng asked, "What song is this?" ”
Xiao Fuyuan said: "Little swallow wears flower clothes. ”
"You teach me."
"Okay."
Zhou looked at Feng Zhiheng, who was sitting on the branch and watching the birds sing, he had never been so happy, he had never been so indulgent.
Thinking that Feng Zhiheng would go to the Lonely Palace in the future and lose his freedom.
Zhou's heart was filled with guilt.
"Ah Heng is really happy in your house, no wonder he wants to come and play with Xiao Yuanbao all day long." Zhou hid the emotions in his heart and said to Zhen with a smile.
"Xiao Yuanbao also likes Sister Ah Heng." Zhen looked at the two girls on the tree and said, "Our women have become relatives, and we can only be unrestrained when we respect our in-laws and serve a large family. So what Xiao Yuanbao does at home, I leave it to her. ”
Zhou nodded, and Zhen's insight was not like that of an ordinary peasant woman.
"Old five, a few of you are optimistic about Ah Heng and his sister." Zhen commanded.
"Don't worry, mother." Bai Zhaomei's eyes were staring at the tree with a wrong eye.
"I don't know who Ah Heng followed, he was naughty when he was a child."
Zhou saw that the Bai family's yard was very clean, paved with stone roads, flowers were planted on both sides of the road, a cluster of grape vines in the northeast corner was full of green and unripe grapes, and the field opened up in the southeast corner was planted with green crops and vegetables.
A delightful idyllic setting.
So let Zhen take her for a walk in the yard.
Coming to a cucumber vine, Zhou smiled and said something that Feng Zhiheng didn't know who to follow.
Zhen smiled silently.
She remembers the hour, and it was also the late spring and early summer.
The little aunt's handkerchief was handed over to the four girls of the Feng family, and the two of them wore small clothes and climbed trees in the garden of Zhen's mansion.
At that time, Feng Zhiheng's grandfather was still a young boy, standing aside and teaching them how to climb.
Zhen is still very young, standing under the tree as an atmosphere group of clapping.
In a flash, nearly 30 years have passed.
"The countryside is the most precious, and if you have to plant vegetables and food, you can't waste anything at all." Zhen pointed to the carob rack and said.
The long beans hung on the ground, a scene full of life.
Zhou said: "On the way here, I saw that many crops were withered, and your yard was green. ”
Zhen said: "This year's drought has caused my family to be lucky to have a well, which is a spring and watered all day long. It never rained, and it was the villagers who suffered. ”
Zhen sighed.
In the past, when the Zhen family was still the daughter of the Zhen Mansion, they could no longer think of the people's suffering, but now they have tasted it all.
"Yes, it is the villagers who suffer from natural disasters. When I entered the territory of Yangfeng, I also saw that some of the land was still green. Zhou told Zhen about the crops he saw on the road.
"That's a millet of swallows." Zhen said.
"The prefect of Huaicheng is my father's student, and he said that the drought-tolerant swallow millet in Yangfeng County was a seed donated by a villager."
Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, it was planted by the eldest of my family." ”
Zhou's face was surprised, he didn't expect the old Bai family to be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
A little daughter carved in pink, I heard that there is also good luck; won the first place in a government examination; A single field can produce drought-tolerant millet seeds.
Zhou was impressed by the Bai family.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhen figured out that Zhou did not propose to go to the town inn and had no intention of leaving.
Therefore, they began to take the initiative to retain customers.
"Sister, it's getting late, Ah Heng and Xiao Yuanbao are playing so well, it's better to stay at my house. There are also two empty rooms in the house, which have been cleaned up. ”
Zhou has this intention.
Feng Zhiheng had as early as the first day he came to Shenshu Village, and he wanted to stay at Lao Bai's house for a few days on Zhou's soft grinding and hard bubbles.
Zhou saw how hard she worked to learn the rules, so he agreed.
Originally, I was worried that the houses in the countryside were narrow and inconvenient, but I didn't expect that Lao Bai's house was spacious and the yard was clean, which was better than the conditions on her village.
It just so happened that her husband was going to come to the mountain to prepare the armory field in the past two days.
It's just that I won't mention this matter to the Bai family first.
Zhen accompanied Zhou to walk around the yard and came to the fence wall, Zhou saw a beautiful mansion opposite, and wondered in his heart, all the way was basically a low mud house, and even there were very few stone and brick walls like Lao Bai's house, such a big mansion was too abrupt.
