Chapter 214: Sneaking away with his daughter
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce.
Under the reflection of the moonlight, the huge Tongquan Mansion also has some different scenery.
And in a certain family in the city.
"Daddy, are you sure that we will sneak out together and not be scolded by our mother?"
A seven or eight-year-old girl, staring at her big watery eyes, looked at her father who was about to take her to jump over the wall and sneak out.
"Be quiet. ”
The so-called dad also looked nervous, and said: "Daddy is busy during this time, it's not that he has no time to accompany you, and your mother won't let you go out at night, so I can only take you out secretly." ”
"Okay, Daddy is the best. ”
The little girl's face was full of surprise, but she also lowered her voice and laughed: "Then where is Daddy going to take me to play today?"
"I'll take you to a place to eat something delicious. ”
The man smiled and said, "I heard that there is a restaurant opened by a grassland herdsman in the city, and the roast leg of lamb in it is very authentic, so let's go where to eat it in a while." ”
When the words fell, the man bent down and hugged the little girl in his arms, and then jumped out of the courtyard wall.
After the two left, another conversation was heard in the darkness.
"Xizi, you said that our Hou Ye is galloping on the battlefield outside, killing people like hemp, but at home, why does a tiger become a cat, take the county lord out to play, and you have to run out secretly. ”
"You know the balls. ”
The man who called Kiko subconsciously stood up from the darkness, and the man who spoke to him hurriedly reached out and pulled him back to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the man said: "You kid don't want to die, if you let Brother Huang know that our secret whistle is exposed, will we still have money for drinking this month?"
"Am I not in a hurry?"
"Who do you think can be like our family, like a tiger outside, and pour footwater for his wife at home?"
Xizi rolled her eyes, lay down on the ground again, and said: "Don't talk about it, our Hou Ye's heart is incomparable to others, and it is even more incomparable to others, an absolutely excellent man." ”
"Really?"
"Not really. ”
After Xizi replied to this sentence, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously wanted to get up, but she was pressed back to the ground.
Xizi's face was full of bitterness, and said, "Brother Huang, don't make trouble, my arm is going to be broken......"
Huang Ye, who was pressed on Xizi's back, rolled his eyes, let go of his arm, and said, "I said that you two boys, you don't have a good night, what are you talking about here?"
"This is not just ...... seen"
Before he could finish speaking, Huang Ye interrupted his words and said, "What did you see, what did you see?"
Xizi's face was full of grievances, and at this time Huang Ye spoke again: "Tell you, no one is allowed to say what happened tonight, if you say it, I will be punished together with next month." ”
When the words fell, Huang Ye raised his leg and gave each of these two people a kick, and said, "Take good duty at night, if I hear someone here making a little noise that shouldn't be made, I will knock your head crooked." ”
After glaring at the two of them, Huang Ye did not hesitate, and disappeared into the darkness with a step.
After seeing him leave, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
These people are nothing more than some martial artists from the rivers and lakes who came here, and after they came, Chu Yujia was also incorporated into the Black Guard Camp after investigating the details.
Nowadays, the security of the entire Dingxi Marquis Mansion is the responsibility of the Black Guard Battalion.
Although I can't see anything on weekdays, I don't know how many there are in the house.
These open and dark sentinels will also be rotated on weekdays, not necessarily to that post, maybe they will be transferred back to the barracks tomorrow, so the specific sentry is there, and even the yellow leaves are not clear, these are all arranged by Qi Chong.
In the city, in a tavern.
This tavern is newly opened, although it is not large and has only one floor, and there are more than a dozen tables in it, but there are many customers here, even if there are still more than 20 people eating, drinking and chatting in it at this time.
This tavern was newly opened, and the owner was originally a herdsman on the grassland, but after Chu Yujia issued a relocation order on the grassland, he moved to live in the herdsman county outside Huma Pass, and after selling some of his belongings, he came to the county town to open this restaurant.
The people of Tongquan Province have almost never eaten food from the grassland, and they have not had the opportunity to eat it.
And because of the hostile relationship for many years, many people still have a xenophobic heart, and they are reluctant to eat here, so it has always been nameless, and many people don't even know that there is such a place.
Later, there was a time when the Northwest Army had a rest day, and many Northwest soldiers came here in groups to charter the field, which made the reputation of this place begin to resound.
Many veterans in the Northwest Army have been fighting in the grassland for many years, because the Northwest Army has always adhered to the tradition of fighting and eating wherever they want, so they often eat the food on the grassland, and even after joining the army, they eat more grassland food than their own food.
Now Chu Yu Jiaming is making peace with the grassland strike, and he has not hunted on the grassland for more than half a year, and many people have begun to think of this, so he came every day during that time, and gradually made this place famous.
After all, the Northwest Army doesn't mind dealing with these steppe barbarians, so what else do others mind?
It is also because the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper in the restaurant are all herdsmen from the grassland, so the people of Tongquan Mansion have an understanding of these herdsmen for the first time.
In fact, the herdsmen on the grassland, the barbarians in their mouths, seem to be no different from them, hospitable, straightforward and honest, and there is no actual difference from the Ye people.
The prices are fair and affordable, and you can eat the specialties of the grassland, and many people have become regular customers after visiting once.
The boss has a preliminary understanding of Tongquan Mansion and the Ye people because of his life during this time, and he is very pleasing with a smile all day long.
Seeing a father and daughter coming, they also hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a smile, "What do you two eat?"
"A trotter, a leg of lamb, a chop by the way. ”
The father looked at his daughter and asked with a smile, "What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat croissants......"
"Horns?"
The father was stunned for a moment, looked up at the shopkeeper, and said with some embarrassment: "This thing can't be eaten, change it to another one." ”
"Then I don't have anything to eat. ”
The little girl pouted and said, "What I want to say has been finished by Daddy, and Daddy clearly doesn't plan to let me order food by myself......"
Looking at the cute appearance of the little girl, the shopkeeper smiled even more and said, "In this case, the two of you will wait a while, I will go and let the back prepare and send it immediately." ”
"Good. ”
The father smiled and nodded, and then pulled his daughter to a window position to prepare it and wait for the food to come.
The father and daughter were almost carved out of a mold, holding their chin with their hands and looking at each other sitting opposite, motionless as if the picture was frozen.
It didn't take long for the food to be sent by the shopkeeper, and by the way, the shopkeeper also brought a pot of milky milk to the little girl, and said with a smile: "This is goat's milk, our children on the grassland always drink it, it tastes good, and it won't gain weight." ”
The little girl raised her eyebrows and said, "Uncle, we didn't order this......"
"Uncle saw that you were cute, and gave you a drink. ”
Then the boss sent a bowl of haggis soup to his father, and said, "Little brother, look at the fate, this is for you, and you don't need to pay for it after a while." ”
The father was not polite, smiled and nodded, then took a big sip and gave the shopkeeper a thumbs up......
