Marrying Uncle Section 99
Yunzhu: "What are you laughing at?" ”
Cao Xun: "Laugh at you for valuing the fruits I gave you so much, and willing to plant them in the place where you grew up." ”
Yunzhu: "...... Then I won't plant it. ”
Cao Xun: "If you don't plant me, let my mother-in-law taste the wild fruits here next autumn." ”
Yunzhu: "It's a shame for your shot." ”
Cao Xun: "Courtesy is light and affection is heavy. ”
Yunzhu took a whole mountain date and threw it at him, but Cao Xun didn't hide and was smashed in the face by the mountain date.
When the mountain date fell, he intercepted it halfway, and then said to the little lady: "If I smash you, you will smash me, and you are not allowed to turn over the old accounts again." ”
Yunzhu: "......"
When Xie Lang and the others finally came over, Yunzhu's teeth were almost soured by the wild mountain dates.
Xie Lang and the hundred guards deliberately chose a place far away from Uncle Guo's husband and wife to rest.
But the pile of wild mountain dates was too conspicuous, and Yunzhu motioned to Cao Xun to distribute some to Xie Lang and the others.
Cao Xun sat in place and didn't move: "I picked it for you." ”
Forsythia, who had just been given a handful by his wife: "......"
Yunzhu glared at Cao Xun: "So much, where can I finish eating?" ”
Cao Xun: "If you can't finish eating, take it back and keep it." ”
Yunzhu couldn't do anything about him, seeing that Forsythia was holding the mountain jujube in the palm of her hand and didn't eat it, she said angrily and funny: "Eat, Uncle Guo is just talking, not so stingy." ”
Forsythia peeked at Uncle Guo and first asked a question she was very curious about: "Madam, where did Uncle Guo pick the dates?" ”
The cloud bead refers to the opposite mountain wall.
After Forsythia found out the location of the director of the wild mountain dates, he finally understood why Uncle Guo was stingy, smiled and put the dates back in the palm of his hand, and said playfully: "This is not an ordinary mountain date, each one is stained with Uncle Guo's affection for Mrs., Mrs. should keep it and enjoy it with Uncle Guo." ”
Not to mention mountain dates, even the golden Lingnan lychee forsythia is not greedy, she prefers to see the sweetness of Mrs. and Uncle Guo!
On the other side, Xie Lang had already noticed the pile of mountain dates on the stones by the river.
He is a dignified prince, what delicacies of the mountains and seas have not tasted, can he be hungry for this kind of game?
Of course, Xie Shizi, who was in the Hou Mansion, was not greedy, but Xie Shizi, who kept hurrying with Uncle Guo, was really aroused by the pile of red fruits.
Relying on his friendship with Cao Xun, and his old friends who grew up with Yunzhu, Xie Lang came over and teased: "Where did Grandpa Guo pick so many mountain dates?" ”
Yunzhu smiled and watched the play.
Cao Xun calmly pointed to the opposite mountain wall.
Xie Lang looked back, and after finding the growth location of wild mountain dates, his eyes were slightly stunned.
At the same time, Cao Xun spoke: "The ones next to me are reserved for your sister-in-law as snacks, if you want to eat, pick them yourself, pick more by the way, and give everyone a taste." ”
Yunzhu: "......"
Xie Lang: "...... Okay, I'll go. ”
Cao Xun: "Call two more people and take care of them below, just in case." ”
Xie Lang: "......"
If you don't give me dates, forget it, you still look down on me!
Chapter 91 "At times like this, it's not normal if it's not hot."
When there were still more than 20 miles away from Suzhou City, a strong wind suddenly rose.
Obviously it is only late October, and the northwest area seems to have entered the depths of winter, the howling wind is cold and biting, even if the carriage is hung with thick cotton curtains on all sides, it still cannot be completely isolated, and the cold wind can always find a gap to invade in a little bit, Yunzhu has to wrap in a fox fur cloak, holding the stove in his arms, and putting his feet into the warm pocket stuffed with the soup woman.
Before leaving Beijing, she knew that she was going to spend the winter outside, and Yunzhu prepared a lot of things under the advice of her mother and sister-in-law, some of which they didn't expect, and Cao Xun helped prepare them again.
Forsythia was also tightly covered, snuggling up to his wife, so that both the master and servant could be a little warmer.
Yunzhu is not cold, but listening to the whirring wind outside, even the carriage is difficult to move forward, and it seems that he has to stop after a few steps, Yunzhu is very worried about Cao Xun and others riding horses outside.
She knew that there was no shelter from the wind at all in front of the village and no store here, so it was better to insist on persevering, arrive in Suzhou City in one go, and then go to the official residence to rest.
Xie Lang and the hundred guards had no choice, Cao Xun could at least come to the car to hide.
Yunzhu stretched out a hand from her cloak and took some effort to open the curtains on the right side.
She had just let the curtain peek out, and a gust of wind rushed in, causing her to close her eyes quickly, and the broken hair on her forehead and ears flew wildly.
Suddenly, the wind was light, and Yun Zhu opened his eyes and saw Cao Xun actually leaning over and blocking the wind outside with his burly figure.
He looked down and asked her, "What's wrong?" ”
Yun Zhu has become accustomed to his sensitivity, and there have been many times along the way, obviously she has heard Cao Xun talking to others, but as long as the curtain moves slightly, Cao Xun will definitely notice it as soon as possible, as if he has always left a focus on her, and is always ready to be called by her.
Looking at Uncle Guo at this time, the handsome face that was tanned by the wind was blown pale by the wind.
Yunzhu said in a low voice: "The wind is strong, you can come in." ”
Cao Xun smiled and replied to her in a low voice: "Xie Lang can insist, wouldn't it be a joke for me to hide in the car, I am only in my early thirties, far from the point of serving the elderly." ”
Yun Zhu glared at him: "What does it have to do with age, he has no carriage to hide, your dignified governor went out to patrol the border, what's wrong with sitting in the carriage for a while?" ”
The smile in Cao Xun's eyes deepened, teasing her: "Do you feel sorry for me?" ”
Yunzhu snapped down the curtains and closed them again.
Forsythia saw that Mrs. pouted, and whispered: "Madame, don't be angry, this shows that our uncle is a good general and is willing to share weal and sorrow with his soldiers, and it is precisely because of this that the soldiers along the way will respect Uncle Guo so much." ”
Uncle Guo went to the battlefield at the age of sixteen to experience training, and he was able to command thousands of troops and horses at the age of his establishment, relying not only on resourcefulness, but also on being able to subdue the hearts of the army.
Yunzhu has heard so many things on the battlefield from his grandfather, can he understand this truth?
But the truth is the truth, she felt cold inside, and Cao Xun didn't even wear a big one......
Forget it, he doesn't care himself, what does she care?
Wrapping the cloak tightly on his body, Yunzhu leaned against the car platform and closed his eyes to recuperate.
I don't know how long I was traveling in the wind, and suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in front of me, and it must be a local general who came to greet Cao Xun again.
But this time it was different, Yun Zhu heard Cao Xun and Xie Lang's horses also running forward, and then Cao Xun's voice: "Cao Xun to see uncle, it's windy today, why are you still out of the city?" It's time for me to go to the General Military Mansion to see you. ”
"What do you don't want to see, why do you have to be polite to me?"
It was an old but heroic voice, it should be the new commander-in-chief Pingxi Hou Cen Zheng sent over to guard Jiayuguan after the imperial court recovered Suzhou.
Cen Zheng is the first generation of Pingxi Hou of Xinfeng, more than sixty this year, and Yunzhu's grandfather is a generation, because he is guarded all the year round, Yunzhu has never seen, but he has heard his grandfather praise his person, it is said that Cen Zheng not only uses soldiers like a god, but also has a good appearance, his three sons are also fierce generals, but unfortunately all died in battle, and now there is only one grandson left.
"Cen Hao has seen Guogong."
As soon as Yun Zhu's thoughts fell, a clear and calm voice came from outside, it was the grandson of the Pingxi Hou Mansion.
After greetings, Cao Xun said to Pingxi Hou: "Uncle, there is Neiko in the car, the wind is too strong, she is weak, and I will ask her to greet you when she enters the city." ”
Pingxi Hou smiled: "Small things, small things, let's go to the city first, it will be dark later." ”
The people remounted their horses and entered the city against the wind.
Cao Xun and the others still live in the official residence in the city, and the ancestors and grandsons of the Marquis of Pingxi also came here directly, and the weather was cold, so they picked up the wind and washed the dust for Cao Xun and his party in the official residence.
Yunzhu went to the back house to rest first, and just after dressing up, Cao Xun came over and wanted to take her to Pingxi Hou to see her.
Yun Zhu has heard him say that Pingxihou and her father-in-law who died in battle are friends of each other, and Cao Xun really respects Pingxihou as an uncle.
There was also wind in the courtyard, and Yunzhu put on the hood of her cloak and followed Cao Xun out of the door.
When he arrived at the hall, he faintly heard the conversation between Pingxihou and Xie Lang, and there was the door in front of him, Cao Xun stopped, and asked in a low voice while helping the little lady put down his hood: "Will you be nervous?" ”
Yunzhu smiled, she would not be nervous when she saw the three generations of emperors, and she had seen a lot of various princes and princes, what was so strange?
Cao Xun pointed to his face, reminding her that Pingxihou had a hideous scar on his face.
Yunzhu only pushed him forward.
The next moment, the couple entered the door side by side.
Yunzhu raised his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Pingxihou on the main throne, the old general who had fought for decades was already very powerful, and the scar made him look fierce and fierce, but Yunzhu thought of the old general's bravery in killing the enemy on the battlefield, where would he care about whether he was ugly or not.
Seeing the old Hou Ye looking at her expressionlessly, Yun Zhu stepped forward with a smile, bowed generously, and said, "The younger generation has long heard of your prestige, Hou Ye, and I finally saw it today." ”
The sky was dark, the hall of the official residence was not so bright, and Pingxihou, who was sitting on the main seat, was like a fierce beast.
Many people are afraid of him, but this noble girl from the capital is not afraid, and she is not the kind of calm she pretends to be.
Pingxi Hou smiled suddenly, touched his beard and nodded in approval: "Okay, she is worthy of being the daughter of the Li family, so courageous." ”
Thinking of the old prince of the Li family, who had passed away, Pingxi Hou talked to Yunzhu about some old things, and his tone was close.
After chatting with the old marquis, Yunzhu retreated to Cao Xun's side, and only then did she set her eyes on the young man standing beside Xie Lang.
Cen Hao, the grandson of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, is about in his early twenties, and his appearance is ......
Yunzhu hasn't been amazed by a man's appearance for a long time, after all, she has a beautiful father who was once known as the best son in the capital, Cao Shao Zaijun, in her eyes, it is not much unusual, when Cao Xun returned to Beijing, Yunzhu was more surprised that he was a military general, and he was as gentle and elegant as his father.
But in this bitter northwest border pass, there is actually a young man like a pearl.
But Yunzhu only looked at it twice.
The men ate and drank, and Yunzhu went back to the backyard first.
Hot water was sent from the water room, and Yunzhu washed it well, and then smeared it with a layer of emollient peach cream.
The fire kang burned in the official house, Yunzhu didn't have anything to do, and advanced the quilt.
It was almost a day before Cao Xun came back, with the smell of alcohol.
Yun Zhu had expected that as long as Cao Xun didn't come to kiss her mouth, she wouldn't dislike anything.
He hugged Yunzhu and said, "It was snowing when I came here just now, and it may be even colder tomorrow." ”
Yunzhu: "If it snows, do you still want to go to Jiayuguan?" ”
Cao Xun: "The old marquis said, when the snow stops, you will go, and when it falls, you will change the day." ”
