Chapter 65: The Pavilion Station
A flash of lightning flashed, illuminating the wet faces of the students, whose eyes were full of hesitation.
It is late autumn, the rain is cold to the bone, they are all students, they have been studying hard in school for many years, and their bodies are not as strong as the escort officers and the transport army.
Food is important, but it has nothing to do with them.
It's just that they still need to be escorted by the army along the way, and they live in the pavilion inn naked, and they don't have to go out for accommodation and food, and they don't dare to offend the escort officer, so they hesitate and just bow their heads to sort out their bags and clothes to avoid.
The escort officer waited for a while, but no one responded, his face was already half dark, and he could only curse a few words in the rolling thunder and leave.
As soon as he left, the students breathed a sigh of relief and began to see how the house lived, and suddenly someone said, "Where did Wu Jin go?" ”
"Are you going to help?"
"This ...... He went, shouldn't we go too? ”
All the students looked at each other, and they all stopped their movements for a while, Wang Jinghua sneered, and pushed away the people who stood in the way: "He won't ask for hardship, I think he went to befriend Miss Mo, who knows how he came to be Xie Yuan!" ”
He took a look in the room, and when he saw that it was rare and not leaking, he immediately instructed the servant to go in and wipe the bed: "I'll live in this room, what a broken hall!" ”
Then he opened his mouth and began to complain, and the resentment "gurgled" out of his throat, and soon wet everyone else like rain.
The front yard was so noisy and uneasy, but the backyard where the Imperial Mission and Mo Lingfeng were located was much quieter.
Grandma Milk led the two maids to wipe the room in all directions, busy like a thousand-armed Guanyin, Mo Lingfeng sat under the porch, holding a handkerchief in his palm, a handful of dried apricots in the handkerchief, two feet wrapped around the chair legs one left and one right, watching Wu Jin walk in the dark, barefoot, tied trouser legs, pulled up his sleeves, and quietly entered the warehouse behind.
She released her feet from the legs of the chair and held the dried apricots to find Zhang Xian: "Zhongguiren." ”
Zhang Xianfeng was looking at the sky and worried, when he heard Mo Lingfeng's cold voice, he was frightened, turned around and lowered his head, and looked at Mo Lingfeng: "Girl, but you can't get used to it?" ”
Mo Lingfeng shook his head and lifted the handkerchief up: "You eat." ”
"Ouch!" Zhang Xianfeng was flattered, and waved his hand again and again, "Girl, you eat it yourself-"
However, Mo Lingfeng raised his hand high and sent the handful of dried apricots to him again and again, Zhang Xianfeng was so gracious that he could only pinch one, stuff it into his mouth, and chew it: "This dried apricots are well done, thank you girl." ”
Mo Lingfeng withdrew his hand, didn't give him food, and said with a raised face: "You let the ginger soup be boiled in the kitchen, they will catch a cold if they build tiles on the roof." ”
Zhang Xianfeng looked up and looked at the rear, and saw the transporters picking up tiles on the roof with a ladder, and hurriedly said, "Thanks to the girl's reminder." ”
He turned his head and told Xiao Huangmen to hurry to the kitchen, if there was no ginger, he would go to the farmer's house to buy it, boil a big pot, and everyone would have a share.
After giving the order, he was about to take advantage of this rare opportunity to gossip with Mo Lingfeng again, but saw that Mo Lingfeng had already walked away, and sat back in the chair to eat dried apricots.
He touched his chin and smacked the taste of dried apricots, inexplicably feeling like eating people's mouths.
After Mo Lingfeng ate the dried apricots, he counted the forty-eight unicorns, twenty-eight fairy deer, and fourteen Ganoderma lucidum on the lacquer painting on the top of his head, and saw that there was a big hawthorn tree outside the pavilion, and there were a few red fruits hanging on the tree.
The grandmother also asked the marquis of the pavilion for charcoal, lit a charcoal basin, and fumigated potpourri flakes on it to cover up the musty smell of no one living for a long time.
There is no smoked cage, and the grandmother leads the maid to unfold the bedding, holding her hands together, and smokes the bedding dry.
Mo Leaf washed his hands and face, waited for the bedding to be dry, and slept with his eyes closed.
When the grandmother saw her sleeping, she breathed a sigh of relief, extinguished the lights in the room, and went to fetch the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow to dry.
The heavy rain outside the house made the house more and more quiet, only the occasional "crackling" sound of the charcoal fire, Mo Lingfeng slept facing in, motionless.
When the rain was a little smaller, Grandma Nan dried her clothes, straightened up, and just wanted to settle outside the screen, when she heard Mo Lingfeng call her: "Grandma." ”
"Girl," the grandmother hurriedly walked in, reached out and touched her hand outside, and when she saw that it was warm, she withdrew her hand, "what do you want?" ”
"I want to eat pine nut chestnut cake."
At this time, it is the time to eat chestnut cake, and Mo Lingfeng loves to eat it.
Grandma's face was embarrassed, and before she could speak, Mo Lingfeng said again: "Grandma, I still don't eat it, I eat too many bad teeth." ”
Mama tucked the quilt for her and said with a smile: "Yes, if your tooth is bad, there will be no place to change it." ”
She sighed in her heart, patted Mo Lingfeng's arm, went out to signal the maid to keep watch, and then opened the door a crack, and went out sideways to the kitchen.
The busy people in the storeroom are also coming to an end.
Wu Jin was soaking wet, struggled to lift a piece of oilcloth and unfolded it, shook off the water droplets on the cloth vigorously, covered it on the Taiping car, and pulled it flat on all sides.
There is rice and wheat, beans and millet on the Taiping car, once it is drenched in rain, it will immediately turn red and rot, and the autumn grain received by the people of Kuanzhou will be destroyed in one fell swoop.
Everyone was busy and dizzy, and they didn't pay attention, the three of them collided into a pile, and a Taiping car was unstable and top-heavy.
Wu Jin's eyes were quick, and he struggled to hold on with both hands, and the escort officer also quickly took action and caught the grain cart together.
Stabilizing the Taiping car, the escort officer looked at Wu Jin, only to find that a man had mixed in the team: "Are you ...... Wu Jieyuan! ”
Wu Jin smiled: "Just call me Wu Jin." ”
The escort officer looked for hemp rope to bundle the grain bag: "My name is Chang Long, two terms earlier than you, and I am a Wuju person." ”
Wu Jin pressed one leg on the grain bag and tightened the rope: "Brother Chang, fortunately." ”
"You don't have a lot of strength, I heard that you are from a cake seller?"
"Yes."
The two of them tied up the food packets, and the others also finished up one after another, gathered together to go to the kitchen to drink ginger soup, the hot and spicy ginger soup was in the stomach, and most of the cold air on the body was immediately dispersed, which made people sigh comfortably.
The body is comfortable, the mind is relaxed, and everyone will gossip about you and me.
"It's so good that Zhang is worshipping, and I remember to make ginger soup for us."
"Rare."
"And the fire, and the clothes."
"I just heard that Miss Mo's grandmother came to look for chestnut cake, Wu Jieyuan, what do you scholars say...... Road, Road...... What stinks? ”
"Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road," Wu Jin held the ginger soup, "but it's not suitable to use it here, Miss Mo is not arrogant, she left home at a young age, and she was panicked, and it is normal for people to want to eat what she likes, and chestnut cakes are also ordinary things, but they can't get it right now." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard his serious explanation.
After a while, someone asked, "How do you know what Miss Mo is like?" ”
Wu Jin smiled: "I'm her servant." ”
