Chapter 22 (Strong and powerful, as strong as an ox...)
e magistrate.""somebody, escort him to the magistrate Yamen!"Chen Tingshi slumped in his chair.Chen Jizong saw that the people outside were really going to come and tie him up. In fear of anger, Chen...Huayang slept until dusk.
he is soft and numb, and he is very hungry.
while hanging up the curtain, Chaoyun reported: "Princess, the horse has gone out to drain the people, but she hasn't come back yet."
Huayang: "when did you go"
"in the morning, not long after you fell asleep, you set off, dressed in the same dirty clothes, and ate out at noon. I asked Jane to inquire. Except for my uncle's trial in the East Hospital, almost all the men in the family were taken out to work by his lordship. "
Huayang nodded, there are priorities, the old lady is gone, but there are still so many people out there who can't go home.
"what did the kitchen do"
"the previous meat is gone. Chaoyue boiled red jujube longan porridge to replenish qi and blood for you, and stewed bamboo shoot soup. I'm going to stir-fry two vegetarian dishes when you wake up. Princess, is there anything you particularly want to eat" The big kitchen has been steaming vegetable stuffing and steamed buns all afternoon, each of which is bigger than his fist. Eat some at home, and the rest will be sent to his lordship and distributed to the people affected by the disaster. "
the Chen family took the lead, and some rich people in the town also donated some grain.
it is enough for Huayang to eat kitchenette, but Chen Jingzong has done a day's hard work, so it is difficult to have enough to eat porridge and soup.
she said casually, "go to the big kitchen and get two plates of steamed buns, one to eat tonight, one to fry, and then heat up the steamed buns in the morning."
winked at the cloud and smiled, "the princess is beginning to feel sorry for the horse."
Huayang: …
after getting up, Huayang went directly to the bathroom. Not to mention that she had not had a chance to take a bath in the first two nights.
first sit outside and let Chaoyun rub, rinse clean, and then Huayang steps into the bathtub and soaks comfortably.
while she was soaking, she picked up the pile of changed clothes toward the cloud and went outside to give them to Pearl.
just after the handover, Chen Jingzong came back, covered in mud and rubbing some dirt on his face.
Chaoyun secretly pinched a sweat for Ye Ma. Fortunately, she didn't let the princess see her.
"if hot water is boiled in the water room, please wash it first."
Chen Jingzong swept his eyes and went to the room.
Chaoyun pointed to the bathroom and said, "the princess has just woke up and is taking a bath."
Chen Jingzong paused and ordered, "send towels and clothes to the ear room."
with that, he turned to the water room and went to carry the water himself.
Chaoyun quickly went to the inner wardrobe to get a change of clothes from the horse, and asked Pearl to send it to the ear room. When Pearl put her clothes, he saw Master Sima come in with a bucket of water in one hand.
the tall, big horse Ye blocked all the light at the door at once, and his indifferent face was covered with mud and looked very fierce.
Pearl was a little afraid.
Chen Jingzong stepped aside the door and said, "go out and pick up the dirty clothes later."
Pearl breathed a sigh of relief and bowed her head and retreated.
Chen Jingzong closed the door, went to the inner room and took off his clothes, revealing his lean body, except that his shoulders and arms were covered with rope marks, and his legs and feet turned white from a long period of soaking.
Chen Jingzong wiped his face impassively, wiping his body with half a bucket of water, washing his hair with half a bucket, and repeating the other bucket.
after cleaning up, Chen Jingzong put on his clothes and lay down on the bed here.
after taking a nap for a quarter of an hour, Chen Jingzong pinched his eyebrows and went to the upper room. when he arrived at the door of the hall, he saw Huayang sitting in the main seat, wearing a plain white brocade dress, black hair as fluffy as a cloud, and only a white jade hairpin.
just after taking a bath, her fair face showed a blush like rouge, and after a day's rest, the lips regained their attractive moist luster.
such a delicate beauty, everyone is in a better mood.
Chen Jingzong smiled: "I haven't taken a bath for two days, but it's pretty fast."
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
Huayang glared at him. She wanted to soak for a while, but she didn't hear his voice and hurriedly left the bathtub for fear that he might break in.
"Let's have dinner."
Chaoyun went to the kitchen with a smile.
Chen Jingzong sat on the east side of the table and poured himself tea.
when he does not smile, his eyebrows are somewhat cold, and this demeanor highlights his handsome and elegant demeanor, just like a sharp sword.
at this moment, Huayang saw fatigue on his face.
No matter how strong and strong he is, he is only a man of flesh and blood.
Huayang went up to him and sat down and asked, "do you still have to go out tomorrow"
Chen Jingzong looked over and said, "what's the matter"
Huayang: …
Chaoyun and Chaoyue come with supper. The staple food is red jujube porridge and steamed buns, with two vegetarian dishes and one soup.
Chen Jingzong looked at the vegetarian table and remembered that after the maids had retired, he said, "I have to go out tomorrow. I will probably be free the day after tomorrow. I will go to the mountains again."
Huayang: "who is hungry for meat" You can eat if you want. I don't think about it, let alone force you to go. "
Chen Jingzong: "then why did you ask me if I would go out tomorrow"
Huayang path scooped up a longan and chewed it slowly.
Chen Jingzong was tired and hungry. Seeing that she stopped talking, he grabbed a steamed stuffed bun.
A plate of four steamed buns, all of which Chen Jingzong ate, did not touch the sweet and greasy red jujube porridge, but only drank two bowls of bamboo shoot soup.
having enough to eat and drink and simply gargle, Chen Jingzong went to the inner room.
Huayang slept well during the day and was not sleepy now. He sat in the second room and asked Chaoyun to prepare an inkstone.
yawned toward the cloud.
Huayang said with a smile, "there is no need for a vigil tonight. Go and sleep with the rising moon for two days. It doesn't matter if you get up later in the morning."
Chaoyun really couldn't stand it. He rubbed his eyes and left after saying thank you.
Huayang studies ink by itself.
my father is about to send a playbook to the capital in two days. As for her, since she is going to write to her father, her mother and her brother will write one by the way.
the father-in-law of Qi's case is not finished yet, so let's write the younger brother's letter tonight.
letter to my younger brother, Huayang doesn't want to discuss political affairs. my younger brother is only ten years old, and he should not be interested in how his father leads the people in flood fighting and disaster relief, not to mention that his mother will certainly tell her brother these things separately.
Huayang wants to say something new and interesting to his brother.
after thinking about it, Huayang smiled and began to write.
she wrote about how Chen Jingzong built the small garden behind him with his own hands, including squatting on the ground pressing pebbles one by one, including the silver he loved to buy peonies, and specially putting rain shields on several clumps of peonies.
she also wrote about her fear when she first heard of the coming flood, her relief at the end of the heavy rain, and Chen Jingzong's ease of carrying her up the mountain, thus urging her brother to eat well and practice martial arts diligently, so that he could grow tall and strong in the future.
when this letter is finished, Huayang also feels sleepy.
Press the letter paper with paperweight and wait for it to dry. Huayang put out the light for the second time, and after his eyes are used to the darkness, he walks gently towards the inner room.
there is a regular sound of breathing in the step bed, and the tired horse sleeps soundly for three days.
Huayang climbed into the bed gingerly, though her movements were light enough. As soon as she lay down, Chen Jingzong, who was beside her, suddenly turned over, put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms.
his warm breath sprayed thin around her neck, but he just held her like this and soon fell asleep again.
the next morning, Chen Jingzong was obviously the hardest man in Siyi Hall, but he was also the first to wake up.nish, Huayang turned around in shame and covered his mouth.Chen Jingzong grabbed her by the wrist and looked at her and said, "it has been three months since the ninth day of the first lunar month.
