Volume 2 Section 8 Why Xiao Xiao (middle)

"Huh?" "Xiangzhu didn't expect the national teacher to not sleep, and he was suddenly shocked.

"No, I didn't think about anything. It's just that some don't dare to sleep. Xiangzhu said timidly.

Xugu opened his eyes, and his expression became gentle. "Why not?"

Zhuzhu thought for a while and said, "Actually... The concubine didn't know. I'm afraid that the national teacher will find a concubine when he wakes up. ”

Xu Gu suddenly smiled, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "What are you looking for?"

"This..."Xiangzhu was a little confused, yes, what are you looking for yourself? "I don't know..."

"You don't want me to come?" asked Xugu a little harshly.

Xiangzhu bit his lip and said, "The national teacher seems to like he doesn't like to come here as a concubine." ”

"Do you know why I like to be with Long Ying?" the national teacher closed his eyes again, returning to his calm appearance.

"I don't know about the concubine. ”

"She would never call me a teacher. "Xugu said it very lightly, but it was very heavy to send Zhu. I don't know what to say.

This month, Xiangzhu listened to the cold words of countless people, even the water in the water tank was brought back by herself with the cold wind, if Xu Gu could pay more attention to her, there would be no need to work so hard. It is naturally false to say that you don't want the Void Ancient to come, but you don't want the Void Ancient to come. Maybe it's because I still can't let go of the boy who became stupid when I saw him.

Early the next morning, Xiangzhu woke up, not knowing when Xugu left. The next person sent breakfast very attentively today, and did not let the bamboo be sent three times and four times. After breakfast, I heard that Xu Gu went to Long Ying's room for breakfast, and he didn't take it to heart, so he went to the account room to check the accounts after cleaning up a little.

At noon, Xiangzhu overheard several old mothers chatting, saying that today was the spring equinox, and some curious people went up to inquire.

"Mom, what's so important about this spring breeze?"

My mother smiled and said, "Madam, you are from the desert country, and you don't know our customs here. We have customs here, and they all say that this spring breeze is to eat red eggs, and there is also the Lantern Festival, so that all wishes can come true throughout the spring. ”

"Well, I really don't know, and thank my mother for telling me. Said decently.

When my mother heard that she was thanking her, her face was full of joy, and she pulled Zhuzhu with a big grin and said, "How can Madame thank us? ”

Xiangzhu smiled faintly and said gently, "Mom said that I was laughing, I saw that my mother was doing things properly, and I couldn't treat my mother harshly." ”

When my mother heard this, she was even more happy, and hurriedly said, "Today's spring breeze, why don't you send some red eggs to the national teacher?

When I heard this, I was a little eager to try, thought about it again, and said with some embarrassment, "It's good, it's just that I don't know how to cook, I'm afraid that the national teacher won't like it." ”

My mother immediately came to her senses and said, "That's easy to say, I'll help Madame make it!" Madame just needs to find some flowers and leaves, stick them on the eggs, and then I'll help Madame make red eggs." In this way, the flowers and leaves will be reflected on the eggs, and they will look very beautiful!"

Xiangzhu felt novel, so he nodded, followed his mother to the back kitchen, found some flowers and leaves and pasted them on the eggs according to what his mother said, and waited for his mother to do it.

I saw that my mother first took out some medicinal ingredients and cooked a pot of fresh soup. I went to the courtyard again, picked some delicate begonia flowers that were blooming, boiled them into flower juice, and put the egg urn on it. After a while, I took it out and put it in the soup that I had dried before, and put some red yeast rice in it, and then I started to cook the eggs.

"I didn't expect my mother to be so powerful, and my mother would cook such a cumbersome red egg. Sending bamboo couldn't help but praise.

Mom rubbed her hands and said with a smile, "We people, as long as the master likes it, we have to know anything." Boiling an egg is nothing. ”

Not long after, the eggs were boiled, and my mother soaked the already red eggs in the sugar water mixed with begonia juice. When the eggs were cold, the bamboo took out the eggs again, carefully removed the gauze on the outside of the eggs, and saw that the red eggs were really printed with flowers and leaves, which was particularly beautiful.

After sending bamboo to thank my mother, I found that it was getting dark when I got out of the kitchen, and I had been tossing for so long unconsciously. So happily took the red egg and went to the national teacher's study.

After looking around, he didn't find the figure of the national teacher, and he was a little disappointed.

At this time, a small servant greeted him, and when he saw Xiangzhu, he hurriedly asked, "What time is Madame?" The national teacher is not in the study, and Madame has something to tell us!"

Xiangzhu looked at the little girl, handed the red egg he was holding to the little girl, and said gently, "Then please help me send this to the national teacher." ”

When the little girl heard this, she said happily, "No problem, what else does Madame want to bring?"

Sending bamboo blinked and thought about it, as if he didn't have anything to say, so he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, just send it." ”

The little guy took the red eggs, gave a salute to the bamboo, and hurriedly ran to deliver the eggs.

After sending bamboo back to the room, I realized that in today's spring breeze, the national teacher went to Long Ying's room early to accompany her to dinner. Sending Zhu wanted to come, he went to accompany Long Ying for breakfast early in the morning, and he thought that this was also the reason for coming.

After sending bamboo to look around, there was nothing to do, and I felt a little bored, so I took Xiaoxue to practice calligraphy.

Since the last time those maids were gone, Zhuzhu obviously felt that the attitude of the entire Tianji Majesty towards him had become extraordinarily good, and he had been active in doing things in the past two days, so he didn't have to worry about it at all.

Unconsciously, it was late at night again, and Zhuzhu didn't wait for the national teacher, and went to bed alone.

On the second day, the national teacher went down to the court and came to the room where the bamboo was sent unexpectedly.

"You asked someone to send a red egg yesterday?"

He bowed and nodded a little bewildered.

"Why?"

"Huh?" Xiangzhu was a little puzzled, why is this?, or replied respectfully, "Yesterday was the spring equinox, and the concubine heard that the spring equinox in Nehua Country has to eat red eggs, so it's..."

"You did it?"

Xiangzhu smiled embarrassedly and said, "The concubine can't cook, I'm afraid that the national teacher won't like it, so I don't dare to do it myself." I just helped my mother wrap the flowers and leaves. ”

"Don't send it if it's too late. Xugu said lightly, for some reason, Xiangzhu felt that today's Xugu seemed to have lost the majesty of the past, and became much gentler.

"Let's pass the meal. ”

"The national teacher has lunch here today?" asked Zhuzhu in some surprise.

"Can't you?" asked Xugu with an eyebrow.

"No...", Xiangzhu said with some embarrassment, "It's because I don't need lunch on weekdays... That's why I wasn't prepared..."

"Why don't you have lunch?"

In the past, three meals a day were on time, and then with Shui Yun, there was always one meal for each meal. Especially during the period of Renqujiao, there was basically one meal a day, and the time depended on fate. As a result, I always forget to eat now, and I only remember it when I am really hungry, and I am afraid that it is troublesome to pass on the meal, so it is solved by simply eating some fruit pastries.

Seeing that Zhuzhu didn't speak, Xugu shook his head, clapped his hands gently, and immediately ran into a small house outside, bringing in a table of dishes with a few maids.

Take a closer look, the amount of each dish is very small, there are many types, each dish is very exquisite, and there are no duplicates of more than a dozen dishes on a table.

"National teacher, is this?" asked Zhuzhu in some surprise.

"Eat silently, sleep silently. ”

"Oh..."

After eating, Xugu didn't leave, just sat in the bamboo delivery room and read. It's not easy to disturb him, so he picked up a book and read it.

I don't know how long I watched it, but I felt that I had eaten a little more at noon, and the sun was warm and a little sleepy.

I saw that now in the house, the sunlight was shining through the window, and everyone was soft. Xiangzhu leaned on the table with his head in one hand, and his head slammed into each other. At this time, Xugu put down the book in his hand and looked at Xiangzhu from a distance. It was a simple, bright smile. It's a smile that I've never seen before.

When he woke up, it was already dusk, and he swept around the room and didn't see the void. But I saw Xugu walking in with a pile of books and files, and gently placed them on the table.

"National teacher, this is?" asked Zhuzhu with some doubts.

Xugu didn't answer, but instead said, "Can you still sleep at night?"

"Huh?" Xiangzhu smiled embarrassedly and shook his head.

"Exactly. ”

"Huh?"

"Let's go. ”

Sending bamboo obediently followed Xugu out of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, Xugu gently collapsed the waist of Xiangzhu, and sent a flower in front of Zhu, which had been taken up by Xugu with light skills and flew out a long way.

When he came back to his senses, he found that he had been taken to the horse farm by Xugu.

"This is?" Xiangzhu looked at the smiling Xugu, and for a moment began to suspect that he was sleepwalking.

"Don't be afraid. I'll take you. As he spoke, Xugu brought a big horse, grabbed Xiangzhu's waist again, and took Xiangzhu on the horse as soon as he turned over.

This is the first time to ride a horse, and he is a little scared and clings to Xugu behind him.

"Drive!" Seeing that Zhuzhu was sticking to himself, Xugu smiled faintly, and ran directly with the horse, which made Zhuzhu turn around and lean on Xugu.

After running a few laps in the racecourse, Xiangzhu is a little used to it, and he is not afraid. Xugu let Zhuzhu hold the reins by himself, and he held Zhuzhu's hand from behind him.

Slowly, the moon was clear and the wind was clear, and Zhuzhu looked up, there were many stars tonight.

"Like the stars?" asked the void faintly.

Xiangzhu shook his head, and said unconsciously, "No... I just remembered that my sister and brother-in-law always looked at the stars together. ”

"Huh!" Xugu stopped his horse, hugged Zhuzhu and asked, "Sister?"

Xiangzhu nodded and said, "Sister, I am very affectionate with my brother-in-law, and the two of us always stay together." ”

"Do you like that?" asked Xugu calmly.

Xiangzhu thought for a while and said, "I can't say I like it, I just think they're like that, it's really beautiful." ”

Xugu didn't speak, not knowing what he was thinking. glanced at the stars in the sky, put on the waist of the bamboo, and returned to the room with the bamboo.
