The summer days in Yanbei are also very hot, especially at the junction of grassland and desert.

There is no grass around the mine.

At noon, several soldiers who had just returned to the camp from the scorching sun were resting, eating large watermelons that had just been brought over and cut.

One bite down, and there was an atavistic scream in his throat and eyes.

"Wuhu ~ cool! Lao Tzu is still worried that he won't be able to eat this bite when he comes! ”

The speed at which the resting soldier gnawed on the watermelon was called a fast, and he finished showing off a piece in one breath before he spoke.

"In such a hot weather, Lao Tzu will suffer from heat stroke if he comes two more times!"

"Who's to say it isn't? It's really unfortunate to be drawn here at this time.

I really envy the brothers over there in Meijiabao, eating watermelon is more convenient than ours here! ”

A group of soldiers who were brought by Mei You to the grassland iron mine east of Yanping Pass changed their guard and rested, eating watermelon and bragging about it in that area.

This place is surrounded by mines, and there is no grass around the mines, and it is hot during the day, and people freeze to death at night.

If it weren't for the fact that the Hu people around here were ready to move, the ghosts wouldn't want to be here.

"It's not good here, there are iron mines and coal mines. These two things are good things~"

When the veterans talked about the mine, the expressions on their faces were very emotional.

"Although we have sweaters in the past two years, what cotton quilts last year have, this day is slightly better. But in the early years, if there was enough coal, we wouldn't have died those people......"

I've been a soldier for a long time, what life and death haven't I ever seen?

But the soldier did not die on the battlefield, but was frozen to death unconsciously because of the low temperature, which was really aggrieved and wretched.

"There used to be Tartars, and those Hu people looked okay. Now that the tartars are gone, they all want to jump. Don't look at yourself a few pounds and a few taels!

What's wrong? I used to be beaten on the ground by the Tartars, but now I dare to argue with us, Zhente Niang's speechlessness! ”

The young soldier scolded at the mention of this.

Who was not happy at the beginning of the year and could have so much less to do without a tartar in the future, and now?

A group of clowns jumping off the beam are like the toad lying on your feet, pure and disgusting!

"Don't talk about the Hu people, I heard the brothers who changed the guard two days ago, they seem to have seen the assassination of the Hanzhou army, and they also want to get a piece of the pie!"

Mei You stood behind a rock not far away, and overheard the conversation of the soldiers in the camp, and she turned her head to look south, her expression unpredictable.

···

Since King Wei began to rebel, and Yunzhou also fell into the hands of Dongfang Tai, Xianyao stopped pretending.

Xianyaofu City is no longer installed.

But as they confessed to Plum Berry, they are really poor.

But it's not that they don't work the contrary,

Every year, in addition to having enough food and drink for themselves, the savings they have saved are helping Xie Changchen carefully pack up Xianyao.

To say that Xianyao doesn't have any concept of the imperial court now, but when it comes to Prince Changping, they can still remember that when Xie Changyan suddenly appeared behind them, and quickly controlled Xianyao, it had to be Xiang Yi They did a good job under the guidance of Lord Xie before.

But it was also at this time that Plum Berry got to know another person thoroughly.

Mr. Xie.

That is, the real grandfather of the original body, Xie Changchen's father-in-law.

A eunuch who was once very powerful.

It was precisely because he had helped Xie Chang so much that Xiang Yi even changed his father-in-law Xie to the title of Lord Xie to show respect.

For the first time, Plum Berry wanted to know more about her grandfather.

I used to hear from Xue Lao's mouth that I didn't know much about it, but in Xue Lao's mouth, her grandfather was a master who didn't smile but was very heartfelt to his own people.

From Xiang Yi and the others, her grandfather is another thoughtful, cautious and all-encompassing person.

As for the imperial court, although Mei Berry has not been in contact with anything, but thinking about their previous attitude towards Xie Changyan, they can imagine the image of their grandfather in their hearts.

Such a powerful person was forced to enter the palace and become a eunuch because of a temporary dilemma and desperate situation.

In the evening, Mei Berry remembered what she said to Xiang Yi in the afternoon, and she could only sigh when she sat at the desk.

I heard that Prince Changping's kindness to her grandfather was also formed at that time.

So at the end of the day, she got her grandfather's full help.

"What are you doing so late and not sleeping?"

The window was not closed on a summer evening, and Plum Berry was startled by the sound outside the window.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Xie Changchen standing there, surprised and delighted.

"Why are you here?" Mei Berry and the other party were across the window, she even looked around, looked at the dark night behind Xie Changchen, and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten, and I'll come in the evening. I heard that you are still busy talking to Xiang Yi, so I will rest for a while before coming over. ”

"You're not afraid of coming in vain, what if I fall asleep so late?"

"If you sleep, I'll wait at your door and surprise you tomorrow morning."

"Hey~ I don't want you to guard the door."

Mei Berry glanced at Xie Changchen, turned around and poured out a cup of fruit tea on the desk and handed it to Xie Changchen, and said, "I won't let you in at night." ”

"Nothing."

Xie Changchen took the teacup of Mei Berry and rubbed it, staring at Mei Berry's face carefully for a while before saying, "It looks a little thinner than a few days ago." ”

"Really?"

Who knew that Mei Berry held his face in surprise and said, "Are you really thin?" Is my face getting smaller? ”

In Fengning, plum berries grew a lot of meat.

It's really because the seafood is so delicious, and the plum berries are still trying to change the way to eat.

what blanched, steamed, fried seafood;

What seafood hot pot, seafood porridge, seafood risotto;

Only Xie Changchen doesn't eat often, and there are no plum berries that he doesn't eat.

Although Tian Qi said every time that Mei Berry stayed up late with qi and blood deficiency, qi and blood deficiency does not mean that people will not be fat.

Now when I heard Xie Changchen say that he had lost weight, Meiberry's whole mood suddenly improved.

Probably understood Mei Berry's thoughts, Xie Changchen couldn't help laughing: "You were also very good-looking when you were in Fengning, not fat." ”

Mei Berry was happy when Xie Changchen said it, but she still didn't forget Xie Changchen running back and forth, a little uneasy, and said, "By the way, how long did it take you to rush over, and are you okay?" Don't go back and be nagged by Grandpa Xue again. ”

Xie Changchen said that he came to look for him after resting for a while, but where can the fatigue of rushing all day long be solved by resting for a while?

"Okay, if it's not good, Elder Xue will scold, and I can't bear it."

Mei Berry, who was amused by Xie Chang's words, propped her hands on the windowsill and laughed non-stop.

The cool breeze blew slowly in the night, and Mei Berry gradually woke up from the cheerful atmosphere just now, and looked at Xie Changchen and said, "How long do you plan to stay this time?" ”

"How long do you want me to stay?"

Xie Changchen asked this question to Mei Berry.

Mei Berry thought seriously for a while, looked at Xie Changchen again, and said, "Let's wait a little longer, let the big guys in Xianyao Mansion City take a good look at you." ”

Mei Berry still remembered Xiang Yi's words, and after she finished speaking, there was a little melancholy and sigh in her tone.

Xie Changchen understood the meaning of the plum berry, lowered his eyes and hummed softly.

He didn't know what the situation was here.

Those who have followed his father are willing to follow him all the time, and he naturally cannot fail these people.

"By the way, there's something I want to tell you about......"

Xie Changchen looked very puzzled when he said this, and while handing over a letter to Mei Berry, he also asked, "When did you meet someone from Hanzhou?" ”
