In the early spring in the north, there is always a little fog and frost in the morning.

Xiaoyaozi was still sitting at the table drinking tea, and the teacup was steaming.

Xiong Wei stood by the window and said to Xiaoyaozi: "Master, the emperor asked me to go to Liaodong first to find out about the enemy. ”

Xiaoyaozi said calmly: "Then let's go." ”

"Then do you want to go with me?" Xiong Wei continued to ask, in the past, he always hoped that Xiaoyaozi would go with him, otherwise, he would feel like he had no backbone. Now it doesn't matter if Xiaoyaozi goes or not, he should slowly learn to handle things on his own.

"I'll take a look. Xiaoyaozi didn't say to go or not to go, he always felt that things were not so simple.

"Knock knock!" Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Xiong Wei subconsciously looked at the door, frowned, and asked, "Who?"

"It's me!" he heard Xia Yun's voice.

Xiong Wei walked over to open the door, opened the door and looked, he was stunned for a moment, in addition to Xia Yun at the door, there was also a white-haired old man, Xiong Wei looked at the white-haired old man and felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

Xiaoyaozi looked at it but stood up and said, "Imperial Doctor Yang, why are you here." ”

Xiong Wei heard the master call him Imperial Doctor Yang, and immediately reacted, he was Ouyang Ying's grandfather.

Xiaoyaozi walked over, saluted Yang Jishi and said, "Imperial Doctor Yang, you can come in first." ”

Yang Jishi walked in slowly, glanced at the room and said, "I didn't have anything to do here, but I heard that you guys are back, and I came to see my granddaughter." ”

As soon as everyone heard Yang Jishi ask Ouyang Ying, they were silent for a while.

Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun, Xia Yun looked at him innocently, and shrugged his shoulders again, meaning that it was none of my business.

"Imperial Doctor Yang, Ying'er, Ying'er......" Xiong Wei didn't know what to say. He was busy with things at the time, so he didn't have time to take care of Ouyang Ying. If nothing else, Ouyang Ying should still be in Yangzhou, but he himself is not sure.

"What's wrong with Ying'er?" Yang Jishi became anxious when he heard Xiong Qi's speech.

"Oh, Ying'er is still playing in Yangzhou. We'll pick her up in a few days. Xiaoyaozi took Xiong Wei's words.

"Yangzhou?" Yang Jishi frowned and looked at Xiaoyaozi.

"When we were playing in Yangzhou, Ying'er said that she liked Yangzhou, and we had something to do, so we let Ying'er be in Yangzhou, and we would pick her up after we finished our work. Xiaoyaozi hurriedly explained.

"Where is Ying'er? I'd better pick it up myself. Yang Jishi looked at Xiaoyaozi and felt as if something was wrong with him.

Xiaoyaozi hesitated for a moment, to be honest, he asked the Salt Gang leader to take care of Shi Zhongyu and Ouyang Ying at that time. They have been gone for so long, and I don't know if the Salt Gang has been affected by what happened later.

If you tell Yang Ji, they put Ouyang Ying in a Jianghu sect. I don't know what a conservative person like Yang Jishi would say.

"This, I happen to have something to go to Yangzhou. I'll just go get her back. After all, you also told us to take care of her at that time. It's my responsibility to get her back. ”

As soon as Yang Jishi heard this, he knew that Xiaoyaozi didn't want to let himself interfere to pick it up, but he was worried about Ouyang Ying's whereabouts.

"Safe! safe!" Xiaoyaozi nodded repeatedly, "She lives in a very good friend's house of mine now. Nothing will happen. ”

Yang Jishi looked at Xiaoyaozi, then at Xiong Wei, and then at Xia Yun and said, "Okay then." When can you bring Ying'er back for me?"

Xiaoyaozi thought for a while and said, "Half a month." I'm working day and night and should be able to come back. ”

"Then I'll ask the Loose Hero. She only has one like me now, this child has a poor background, her parents died when she was very young, and I have never had her whereabouts. Now that I've found it, I want to make up for her. Yang Jishi said, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and his face was very sad, "Don't lose it again." ”

Xiaoyaozi took a deep breath, he could understand the old man's mood very well. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely hand over Ying'er to you well." ”

Yang Jishi didn't speak again, and there was a faint sadness in his heart. Xia Yun helped him slowly walk downstairs and sent him into the carriage.

Xia Yun looked at the carriage that Yang Jishi was far away, and she suddenly felt a little sad in her heart. She suddenly also wanted a family, a grandfather who loved her, and a home that belonged to her. She suddenly wanted to go to Liaodong immediately to find out her life experience.

She walked back slowly, and Xiong Wei looked at her with red eyes. "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing. Xia Yun casually compounded, "I miss Ying'er a little." ”

Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun again, always feeling that she had something on her mind.

"Didn't the emperor want you to go to Liaodong? When will you leave? Xiaoyaozi said very seriously.

"We're going to leave in three days. ”

"I'll pick up Ying'er tomorrow, I hope nothing happens to Ying'er. Xiaoyaozi let out a long sigh of relief.

"Xiong Wei, let's go tomorrow. Xia Yun suddenly looked at Xiong Wei very seriously.

"Okay, then we'll leave tomorrow. Xiong Wei also wanted to leave early, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to ask Xia Yun what was wrong.

As dawn broke, the north wind blew. Xiaoyaozi hurried up, he hadn't seen Ying'er for so long, and he didn't know why he missed Ouyang Ying so much.

Xiong Wei, Xia Yun and Xiaoyaozi went in the opposite direction after breaking up and embarked on a journey to Liaodong.

Xia Yun basically didn't speak all the way. Xiong Wei tried to ask several times, but he couldn't help it.

The north country is frozen, thousands of miles of snow-capped mountains, and the further north you go, the more snow becomes.

They braved the wind and snow and finally came to the border of Liaodong.

The wind was blowing, and no one could be seen on the road except for the hurried pedestrians.

Xiong Wei observed the people all the way, and suddenly found that the clothes he was wearing were very different from theirs.

"Yun'er, it's very difficult for us to find out what we are wearing. Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun, "Shall we also go buy a set of clothes to change into." ”

"We can change clothes, but we won't speak to them. As soon as you speak, you leak. We couldn't go deeper. Xia Yun also stared at the pedestrians on the road.

"That's what you're talking about. It seems that we can't leave the country yet, so we have to find a place to inquire first. Xiong Wei said as he looked around. Didn't you shudder and sigh, "How can the people here live in such a cold weather?"

The two of them said and found a family. From the outside, it looks like a hunter.

The two of them knocked politely on the door, "Excuse me?" ”

After a while, a person came out, Xiong Wei saw it, his face was pale, he was wearing a leopard skin coat, and a large cotton coat was put on it, and he was wearing a certain fluffy hat on his head. His hands kept poking at each other.

Xiong Wei saw that this figure could be compared to the two of himself combined. Xiong Wei is also a seven-foot man, but he is much inferior to this person. However, they look very honest.

"This big brother, we are passers-by, going to Liaodong, there is too much snow on the road. I can't make it, can I stay with you for the night?"

Orion glanced at Xiong Wei from beginning to end and said, "You are from the Central Plains. ”

Xiong Wei was stunned for a moment and asked, "How do you know?" ”

"Just listen to your voices. You guys come in first. Orion said cheerfully.

Xiong Wei and Xia Yun entered the house and looked at it carefully. There was some corn hanging in the house, and a flaming bow, and some animal skins.

"What is this?" Xia Yun was surprised, she didn't know what it was.

Xiong Wei saw that this "basket" was about three feet long and more than one foot wide, with a wooden bottom and an oval "yoche" surrounded by thin wood chips to form a guardrail about one or two feet high.

"Oh, that's my baby's ride. Orion said in a rough voice.

Xiong Wei finally listened carefully this time, and what they said was indeed very different from what they were talking to. They speak in louder voices than they do, and they are very bold.

"My baby's car. Xia Yun repeated, she didn't quite understand what this person was talking about.

"You are from the Central Plains, you don't understand. In this place, there are often wild wolves, and if you are not careful, the wild wolves will take your baby away. On this snowy day, where are you going to find it? Orion continued without concealment.

In the Jurchen area, whenever a child is born in the family, the adults will tie it with four hemp ropes on the beam or ceiling and hang it above the kang that is not high from the earthen kang, tie the child's favorite toys or colored cloth strips to the rope, and lay bedding and pillows in it, and let the child lie in it and swing it back and forth, amuse it or lull it to sleep.

Children are comfortable and safe in it, or fall asleep soundly, or swim leisurely, in summer can play the role of fanning the wind to drive away mosquitoes and flies, and in winter in the bed made of poultry feathers such as ducks, goose feathers, etc.

Before Xiong Wei could ask, Orion said to Xiong Wei again: "We have three monsters. This is one of the blames. ”

"Three monsters?" asked anxiously this time when no one asked him to finish.

"Don't believe me. The window was covered with paper, and the eldest girl was holding a cigarette pouch and feeding the children and hanging it. Orion said and looked at Xia Yun and said, "Looking at the girl's beauty, if you are here, a girl of your age will often have a cigarette pouch in her mouth." The girl seemed much quieter. ”

"You say she's quiet?" Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun, and when he heard Orion's words, he couldn't help laughing, the words he heard the most were how ruthless Xia Yun was, and it was the first time he heard someone say that she was quiet.

Xia Yun glanced at Xiong Wei with disdain and said, "Why, you can't listen to what others say about me?"

Xiong Wei still couldn't help laughing, and said while laughing: "Yes, yes, yes! I'm not good." ”

Xia Yun didn't bother to pay attention to Xiong Wei, touched the basket by herself, and thought: If she grew up in Jurchen, would she also sleep in this small basket?

Xiong Wei looked at the window curiously, and the window paper was indeed pasted outside. "Why is that?"

Orion was happy to explain.

Most of the houses inhabited by the Jurchen people are made of adobe and straw, and most of the windows are wooden lattice windows with poor warmth effect, and when the weather is gradually cold in late autumn and early winter, people have to find a way to keep out the wind and cold, but due to the limitations of living conditions or material resources, people often stick the net-like homemade hemp rope paste together between the two pieces of window paper and stick them to the window lattice.

In order to make it durable, people will evenly coat the window paper with soybean oil, so that it becomes both wide and strong after drying, and is no longer afraid of wind and rain, and at the same time can also play a protective role in the wooden window lattice, because there is no weathering invasion and rain corrosion, thus prolonging the service life of the wooden window.

"This big brother, I don't know what you call it. Xiong Wei saluted Orion and asked.

"My name is Yehnara Barutu, and I'm not like you. ”

"Are you surnamed Ye?" Xia Yun said curiously.

"No, my surname is Yehnara. We Jurchens are different from you Central Plains people. Barutu means warrior. ”

"What does it mean to love Xinjueluo?"

"Love Xin Jueluo. When Orion heard this, his face was very nervous, and he glared at Xia Yun, "Who are you, how do you ask about Aixin Jueluo." ”

Xiong Wei also looked at Xia Yun, not knowing why she could ask this question.

Xia Yun looked at Orion, who was still very kind just now, suddenly changed his face, and hurriedly explained: "No, I just heard of this name, so I was curious to ask." ”

Orion looked at Xia Yun and didn't seem to mean anything else, so he relaxed his vigilance and said very unhappily: "Aixin Jueluo means gold." ”

"Then this big brother, have you heard of Aixin Jueluo Takshi, Aixin Jueluo Nurhachi, Aixin Jueluo ......" Xia Yun asked these names again.

"Who the hell are you?" Orion suddenly picked up the fiery bow and glared at Xia Yun angrily.
