Chapter 684 Thoughts on the way
The trunk utensils are all made of iron. They have been fully forged, with smooth appearance and exquisite craftsmanship. They have a certain amount of weight in their hands, but they are within the range of bearing. Just holding them alone makes it feel very easy.
Fan Hongyu made sixteen such piercing tools for Xia Mingyue. "Thank you, Lord Fan." Xia Mingyue thanked her repeatedly after accepting her.
"You are kind to you, Mrs. Xia." Fan Hongyu bowed, "I have tried all these with people. They are solid and durable, and they are easy to use. There should be no problems during use."
"Yes." Xia Mingyue answered with a smile.
The two of them said something for a while, but Fan Hongyu did not forget to remind Fan Jinglan.
What are you not allowed to be naughty, listen carefully to Mrs. Xia.
Nothing can be too arrogant, listen to Mrs. Xia.
What should you eat and sleep well? Listen to Niang Xia's words...
Fan Jinglan, "..."
The words were very long-winded, and many of them were said by her elder brother when she went out before, and her ears were called into calluses.
But there is one sentence that is right.
Listen to Niangzi Xia. "No problem!" Fan Jinglan agreed repeatedly, and urged Fan Hongyu, "If you have nothing else, it will be getting late. Sister Xia and I have to set off. Otherwise, if it is too late, we might not be able to get to the place to stay at night, so we have to sleep in the open..."
Fan Hongyu curled his lips.
From the capital, heading west, you have to pass countless villages and towns within two days, and there are many inns along the official road. As Fan Jinglan and Xia Mingyue, you can stay in the room, and there will definitely be no such thing as sleeping in the open.
Fan Jinglan just thought that his elder brother was just talking nonsense!
Fan Hongyu knew in his heart that he didn't complain much on his face, and only said "A good road is good", and watched Xia Mingyue, Fan Jinglan and others get on the carriage together.
Xia Mingyue and Fan Jinglan and her group were quite large, and the salutes were filled with several carriages. With the guards and servants on both sides, they seemed very powerful.
The Fan family has never paid attention to these pomp, but at this time Fan Hongyu was very satisfied with this and felt much more at peace in his heart. He sent his group out of the gate of the capital.
Watching the group gradually fade away, until the last carriage became blurred in sight, Fan Hongyu then put down his hand that had been waving.
The face was reluctant to leave, Fan Hongyu's eyes were full of obscenity, and he even sighed.
After this time, I don’t know when I will meet again. "Sir." The servant beside him comforted, "The lady should be back soon. After all, the lady and the general Shenhu have already married the empress dowager..."
The empress dowager personally gave the marriage, and the lady's condition must have a wedding in the capital, and the wedding needs to be prepared in advance, so the servant concluded that the lady would definitely come back soon to prepare for the wedding. "Yes." Fan Hongyu nodded, his brows stretched slightly, but he had not been completely relaxed.
The sun is gradually rising, and the spring sun makes the whole person feel warm. The apricot blossoms at the gate of the city have already bloomed. Under the sunlight, flowers are everywhere on the branches, which is very beautiful.
However, since the breeze blows, the petals of apricot blossoms fall down, and together with the petals that fell yesterday, they are stacked in a thick layer.
The petals fall on the ground and will eventually mix with the soil, slowly ferment and turn into more soil, nourishing the apricot trees and blooming more flowers in the coming year.
This is the destination of flowers, and many times it is also the mission of flowers.
Sometimes people will climb and break flower branches, insert them into bottles, and put them in the room to enjoy them, but in many cases, it is difficult to retain this beautiful scenery, which in turn has exacerbated the withering of flowers.
So, not all flowers need to be picked up and folded.
It's enough to see from a distance.
At least that beautiful scenery will remain in my heart for a long time, for a long time.
Fan Hongyu reached out and picked up a petal that fell on his shoulder, placed it gently next to the root of the tree, stood up, and smiled, "It's getting late, it's time to go to the yamen."
The affairs of the Ministry of Revenue are full of things, and he still has many things to be busy with.
You can't slack off at all!
Fan Hongyu rolled over the horse, threw the reins in his hand, and headed all the way to the Ministry of Revenue.
Xia Mingyue and her group of carriages were moving forward slowly. The carriage was wide and comfortable. The driver had excellent skills in catching the carriages, and the carriage was driving very smoothly.
If it were on the way to Beijing, such a steady and slow-paced carriage would have already made Xia Mingyue drowsy, but on the way back, with Fan Jinglan, the lively pistachio, Xia Mingyue was completely sleepy and chatted with her, talked with her enthusiastically, and looked at the scenery outside the window.
The breeze is gentle, the sun is bright, the trees are sprouting, the green grass is shady, and there are also large areas of blooming unknown flowers, with different shapes, colorful and beautiful.
When I was tired of speaking and tired of seeing the scenery, I came to have a little snack that Xia Mingyue had prepared in advance.
Shrimp squids, peanuts frosted, candied plums, salted pepper crust, spicy dried meat...
All kinds of flavors can't stop.
At night, stay in an inn or inn, sleep comfortably, relieve fatigue, and continue this trip until the next day.
After walking like this for a few days, Fan Jinglan discovered something strange.
It seems that since she set out in the capital, she has never seen Yin Lingyou’s master and disciple along the way.
Not only did they not lift the curtains to make it breathable during the journey, they would never get off the carriage when they were having a picnic outside at noon. If they hadn't known in advance, Fan Jinglan would have felt that their master and apprentice had never traveled with them.
"Sister." Fan Jinglan was a little curious and even more concerned. "I have never seen Doctor Yin, but he is not feeling well?"
"That's not." Xia Mingyue casually pulled the ground, "It was probably because the carriage was exhausted, and Dr. Yin felt tired and wanted to sleep in the carriage."
"Yes." Fan Jinglan nodded, "This spring is the most prone to sleep, especially in the past, Doctor Yin has suffered a disaster, and probably hasn't fully recovered."
"It should be..." Xia Mingyue smiled embarrassedly.
Wu Jin, who was lying in front of the carriage, grinned and yelled twice.
At this time, Yin Lingyou and Mao Sanli were in the carriage, bored, sometimes tilted, sometimes sitting upright, sometimes eating something, and sometimes drinking water...
After working for a while, Yin Lingyou sighed. "Do you feel a little bored? Why don't you go outside for some breath?" Mao Sanli was about to lift the curtain while talking.
"No, no!" Yin Lingyou hurriedly pressed Mao Sanli's movements, "It's good in the carriage, no need to breathe!"
Mao Sanli tilted his head, "Master, you must be because of the previous incident..."
"May, it's okay, it's been so long since the matter has been gone, everyone has forgotten it, and the servants in the mansion have stayed in the capital. This time, the people accompanying him either don't know or they know too much. No matter which kind, they won't laugh at you." "So don't worry!"
He lets a ghost heart.
Yin Lingyou gave Mao Sanli a angrily glance.
How could others forget and ignore such a novel and interesting thing in this short time?
Even if you don't mention it on the surface, as soon as you see him, you will definitely think of this in your heart, and you even have to imagine his embarrassing look at that time...
Forget it. During this period, you must be invisible. At least you must persist until you arrive in Jinqiu County.
In this way, everyone's memories will be covered by the anecdotes along the way, and he will slowly forget his embarrassing things.
Yin Lingyou thought of this and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
When Mao Sanli saw that his master was obviously a little unhappy, he stopped talking and stopped persuading him. At the same time, he scratched his head in confusion and annoyance.
I really don’t know what the master is worried about.
How can people have such good memories? Will they remember what happened many days ago?
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小
Take him as an example, sometimes I can forget about what happened yesterday, let alone what the day before yesterday.
After all the time, Master just thought too much.
The most important thing is that it’s fine if the master doesn’t want to show up to meet people. He is not allowed to show up. This is not a good thing.
You know, when I was staying in the inn last night, Niang Xia was intrigued and made a big pot of fat sausage.
A big pot!
It is said that the soup is red, oily, spicy, and has a strong aroma. The slices of meat are tender, smooth and delicious.
The most important thing is the fat intestine, which is the fresh fat intestine collected from the nearby village of the inn. It is washed very clean and the oil inside is removed very cleanly, leaving only the fat intestine skin.
The fat intestine skin is white and tender inside, and the skin is shallow brown on the outside. Soaked in a very rich and fragrant soup. Take a bite and it will be absolutely chewy and smooth, spicy and fresh!
Just imagined, Mao Sanli felt that this fat intestine was absolutely delicious, which made him drool a big bowl of saliva.
He really wants to eat.
The kind of thinking I feel like I can't live tomorrow!
It's a pity that the master refused to go out no matter what, let alone let him go out. He was embarrassed to ask the earth to ask for a bowl of food so much. He could only smell the wonderful fragrance through the crack of the door, and he could only smell the drooling of his mouth and another bowl of water flowed down...
This kind of scratching the heart is really hard to endure!
Mao Sanli felt that if his master was so obsessed, he would be drooling on the way back to Jinqiu County.
At that time, they don’t have to ride back in the carriage and row the boat!
No, no, I have to think of a solution...
Thoughts grew wildly in Mao Sanli's heart. When he noticed that Xia Mingyue had made a spicy hot pot at night, the idea of having to go out and eat it reached its peak.
But...
Seeing that the master was staring at him with a straight face, as if he was afraid that he would go out, Mao Sanli was immediately worried about his difficulties.
How to go out for a suitable reason has become a difficult problem.
But it is not a difficult problem!
After turning his eyes several times, Mao Sanli immediately frowned, covered his stomach with pain, and started to "Ouch Ouch Ouch".
"What's wrong?" Yin Lingyou saw that Mao San's color was a little white, and there were even signs of sweat oozing on his forehead, so he hurriedly asked with concern.
"The stomach hurts so much..." Mao Sanli almost squeezed out from his teeth, "I guess he was eating the bad guy. No, no, I have to go to the thatched cottage quickly."
"Go and go quickly." Yin Lingyou looked at a strong apprentice as a mountain, and at this time he was like a arched shrimp. He hurriedly opened the door and said, "Is it possible? If not, I will help you over."
Mao Sanli, who pulled a lot of toilet paper, bent over and walked out while holding the wall, and said, "No, no, no, there is no big problem. Master, don't worry too much, I will come back soon."
After all, this kind of place involves privacy. Although Yin Lingyou was quite worried, seeing Mao Sanli refuse, he stopped insisting, and just watched Mao Sanli walk out with confidence.
Mao Sanli bent over and under Yin Lingyou's gaze, he walked towards the cottage in a little difficult but very quickly.
But after realizing that he had reached Yin Lingyou's vision, his originally bent waist was straight in an instant, but his face was still a little pale, and sweat on his forehead continued to flow out.
But these symptoms did not seem to have any effect on Mao Sanli. He even chuckled and kissed the porcelain bottle that was touched from his sleeve.
Don’t say, this thing really works!
Go away!
Mao Sanli took advantage of the late night that had already fallen, slipped through the wall, avoided Yin Lingyou's sight as much as possible, and successfully arrived at another yard of the inn.
In the yard at this time, Xia Mingyue and others were feasting around the table and eating at the large pot of spicy hot pot.
Fresh and smooth tenderloin slices, chewy and fragrant, chewy and fatty sausages, fresh and gravy-filled fish balls, crispy and fragrant spring bamboo shoots, fried tofu soak with rich soup...
A dozen kinds of meat and vegetables are all in one pot, fried in the bottom of the red oil pan, fragrant, and paired with a bowl of soft, tender and delicious white rice, it can't taste too satisfying!
Xia Mingyue, Fan Jinglan and others had a great time eating, and the fresh and spicy taste made them feel happy, and even a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
This scene and the rich aroma emitted from the spicy fragrant pot made Mao Sanli unable to help swallowing a big mouthful of saliva again.
"Gulu!"
The voice was loud enough to make everyone hear clearly, and even shocked Xia Mingyue, who had a strong ear.
After seeing the sound being made by Mao Sanli, Xia Mingyue laughed, "Brother Mao?"
"Miss Xia, Madam Fan, junior sister..." Mao Sanli greeted one by one, but when he said hello, his eyes stared at Mala Xiangguo without turning his eyes, and he even laughed, "Eat that?"
When he spoke, because he had too much saliva in his mouth, he was very vague and almost couldn't hear clearly.
If you think about this look with your toes, you will know what Mao Sanli is now here.
Seeing this, Xia Mingyue asked Yin Qiao to serve a bowl of rice, took the chopsticks and greeted Mao Sanli, "Brother Mao sat down and had something to eat?"
That's what I waited for!
Mao Sanli didn't even bother to say polite words, and just lighted his head like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay, okay."
Then, he sat on the stool and kept pinching all kinds of food in the basin into the bowl.
March is coming to an end, this month is the end of the month~ I hope the treasures will continue to support Nuannuan~
