Zhuoying

A few days later, when the paper and ink ran out, Zhong You had to go to the town to do some shopping, and Shi Yu went with him.When he arrived in the town, Zhong You went to buy paper and ink, and had to pick some time, the place was not far from the Mongolian Pavilion, so Shi Yu went to the Mongolian Pavilion.

At this moment, the Meng Pavilion has already started to move around to pick up and deliver the goods. Mengchen is not in the hall. After Shi Yu said hello, he went to the small courtyard mentioned by Su Shuo.The yard is not big, with a fruit tree and a grape trellis planted in the middle, and there are no high attic eaves on the left and right to cover it. Sitting on the rocking chair in the yard, you can clearly see the sky and white clouds, and it is very peaceful.

When the widow closed her eyes and fell asleep on the rocking chair, Mrs. Su picked up a blanket and covered her, doing embroidery work on one side.

Shi Yu didn't go in, just looked in from the wall for a while, then left silently.

"Why don't you talk today?" Widow Shi suddenly opened her eyes and asked Miss Su.

Su Niangzi lowered her head and bit off the embroidery thread, and smiled to the widow Shi, "I think it's autumn, and I can ask Dashuo to bring some persimmons back in a few days. Dao'er likes it."

"Children know what they like or not." The widow closed her eyes again, her unpainted face was haggard and gloomy. After a long time, she said coldly: "Pick some persimmons that are not bruised and unmarked, and put them together with pears. Put it in the cellar and freeze it. It’s the best food in winter, so you can hide some for him.”

"Hey." Su Niangzi folded up the jacket with a smile, and said, "Listen to you."

After Zhong You finished picking, the assistant packed out a large bundle for him, and he wondered whether he should call a donkey cart.Just as he was going to touch the money bag, someone behind him threw silver to the clerk, bent down and picked up the things in his hand.Seeing that he was about to speak, Shi Yu handed him a small basket.

Zhong You hugged it, looked down, and saw that there were fat pears and short persimmons inside, it was very pleasing to squeeze together.He said, "What a big pear."

Shi Yu picked up something, slowed him to his side, and squeezed into the crowd together with him, blocking the crowd tightly.While humming, said: "It's delicious when frozen."

"Frozen?" Zhong You raised his head and smiled, "I've never tasted a frozen pear."

Shi Yuben was paying attention to people coming and going so as not to encounter a thief, but he couldn't help being attracted by the smiling eyes of the man who raised his head, leaving only two parts to try to support the surroundings.He touched Zhong You's back lightly with his hand, and told Zhong You to watch the road, "I'll freeze a few to taste when I get back." He said again: "There are so many people, you watch the road."

The crowd beat like a wave, and Zhong You rushed back into Shi Yu's arms, even stomping on his feet.Shi Yu originally wanted to take the man out directly with his wrists in hand, but for some reason, as soon as the idea appeared, he spun and sank again.Zhong You was so crowded that it was inconvenient to dodge while holding the basket, so he could only be squeezed against Shi Yu's chest.The lime flavor is a little damp and cold in autumn, and the nose is full of breath from the light collision.Shi Yu pursed his lower lip, and couldn't help showing a little smile.

"I'm sorry!" Zhong You leaned against him and said, "Shi Yu, move your foot, I've been stepping on it!"

Shi Yu didn't seem to hear it, so he raised his hand to support Zhong You's shoulder, and let him step on his own feet while stumbling, Zhong You repeatedly apologized halfway through, and Shi Yu said he was fine.When the two squeezed out, they were quite embarrassed.

Zhong You sighed: "This street is amazing, Chunhua Street in Jiangtang is not so crowded."

"Chunhua Street is wide, here is a narrow road from the beginning to the end." Shi Yuzheng said, when he heard Zhong You's ah, he looked down and saw two or three persimmons in the basket were crushed.The two looked at each other and both smiled.

"It's a pity." Zhong You fiddled with the position, "I have to eat less in winter."

"I can buy more when I get out of the street later." Shi Yu said, "Changhe Town has no shortage of persimmons."

"Then we haven't seen many persimmon trees in our village." Zhong You said strangely: "I only saw one or two trees planted in people's yards, and I don't think they were for sale. A little further east of the academy is a field, I haven't seen it. Is it planted separately in the town and the countryside?"

"No." Shi Yu raised the rice paper a little so as not to scratch it, and said: "Qingping Mansion doesn't care what is planted in the town and village, as long as it approves [-]% of the things planted every year, it will be taxed and put into Qingping Mansion's warehouse. Although It is a tax, but Qingping Prefecture will allocate money and silver according to the storage records for the first planting every year. Lianti Village has never planted persimmons. There is no way for Pingfu to allocate money." He paused, and then said: "But it will be planted next year, on Dongshan Mountain."

"Good thing." Zhong You saw the shop where he bought sweet-scented osmanthus candy last time, and was leading Shi Yu there, and said, "It must be someone from Qingping Mansion who came to investigate the land and settled the land in Dongshan, Xu's." It can be planted."

Shi Yu hummed lightly, "It came a few days ago."

Zhong You asked for two more packs of sweet-scented osmanthus candies, touched the silver and handed them over, "A few days ago?" He said, "I didn't even notice."

"The adult who came this time is the new one."

"That's good." The sweet-scented osmanthus candies in this sugar shop are different, that is, the candies are cut into small pieces and packed in oiled paper for easy carrying and eating.Zhong You handed the candy to Shi Yu, and said: "As the saying goes, there are three fires for a new official to take office, and the new inspector must always..."

Shi Yu couldn't take his hand away, bowed his head and bit the candy from his palm, Zhong You forgot what he was going to say just now.Shi Yu swallowed the sugar but frowned slightly, the tip of his tongue rolled around and pushed between his teeth.

You can't be so dazed, Zhong You stuffed one for himself, and said silently: "What's your surname?" He said in retrospect: "It's not yet the beginning of spring, and it's the time when the autumn grain is entering the warehouse. Generally, the old will not be replaced at this time.”

Maybe it was a surname he was familiar with?

Shi Yu crushed the sugar with a bang, immediately the sesame seeds and sweetness disappeared between his teeth, he said: "Forgot."

Zhong You didn't care, so he didn't ask again.

Shi Yu didn't know that the Zhong Ruchen who was looking at him that day had a single name Xie, and was the grandson of Zhong Ziming, the helmsman of the Zhong family in Jingdu.Zhong Ziming had the merits of following the dragon when he was the Supreme Emperor, and now the Zhong family has established itself as the head of the upstarts in Kyoto, and there is a vague tendency to fight against the old-school He family.Logically speaking, Zhong Xie should go directly to Zhongshu Province to work, but he thought he had some ambitions, and he didn't want to listen to his family's orders, so he turned his head and went to Qingping, vowing to make achievements from the low-ranking place here.

Today he will return to Qingping Mansion, people went to the street to buy dry food, when he squeezed out, he suddenly grabbed someone's wrist.

The movement of pinching the wrist point was quick, exactly the same as what Zhong You did that day.

Zhong Xie dragged him out, and he turned out to be a dirty boy.He frowned, and said solemnly: "You have no hands and feet, how can you do such a hot business!"

The kid couldn't steal the money bag, couldn't struggle, the arm pinched by him was numb and didn't cry out, he just stared at a pair of dark eyes, and suddenly bit the back of his hand.

Zhong Xie's expression remained unchanged, he lifted the man up by the collar, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know how to repent!"

The kid was shocked by him, his already empty stomach rolled over, and he vomited acid water suddenly, spit out his robe.But Zhong Xie didn't let go, the sour smell hit his nose and mouth, although he was disgusted, he didn't raise his hand and throw him out.

He said: "Go down and vomit!" He hesitated for a while, raised his hand and patted the kid on the back, and said, "Slow down, although I won't give you money, I can treat you to a hot bun."

The boy struggled to the ground and pushed him.

Zhong Xie saw that there was no fear on his smudged face, and that his black palm slapped two black marks on his chest, so he couldn't hold back and let go of his hand.

This kid slid back into the sea of ​​people in a blink of an eye, like a fish in water, he disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Zhong Xie stared at the dirty and smelly robe with a frown, a deep groove was almost squeezed out between his brows.

Zhong You, who was about to go home with Shi Yu over there, was thinking about whether he had missed something, and bumped into a person beside him, almost knocking the basket in his arms out of his hands.Zhong You tightened his arms and helped him up too.

It was a dirty boy who bumped into him, skinny and skinny, with only bones left in his arms.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhong You said softly, "I'm sorry, are you hurt?"

The kid looked around as if hiding from someone, quickly shook his head, and pushed Zhong You's hand away.Zhong You didn't force it, so he let go, seeing that his vigilant face was tense, which was a bit like Shi Yu's expression when he was indifferent.

Zhong You took out a pear from the basket and handed it to him, and said with a smile, "It's all my apology."

The kid took a step back, looked at him several times, and saw that he was clean and simple, with a gentle smile, swallowed his saliva, hesitated for a long time, and then reached for the pear.

Unexpectedly, Li Zi didn't move at all when he took it.

"Although he didn't speak, he looked at Ji Ling." Zhong You said slowly: "A clever child should be on the right path. If you dare to pick this pear, you can distinguish between good and evil. Since you understand it in your heart, your subordinates must also understand it."

After the sound, the pear lightly pushed into the boy's palm, and Zhong You flicked his forehead with his fingers, and said with a smile, "Okay, give me back half of the money."

When Shi Yu pulled the carriage and came back, he saw Zhong You standing beside him counting the sweet-scented osmanthus candies in his palm, looked up and saw him, just smiled, and said, "Shi Yu, tonight I will make pear soup, add some rock sugar and stew it overnight , Ah Zhou can drink it tomorrow morning, and ask him to bring some to Daoer."

Shi Yu sent all the things to the carriage, made room for Zhong You, and said, "Okay."

Zhong You was sitting beside him, eating candies one by one.Shi Yu was driving the car, and suddenly said: "You give him money, do you think he can go back to the right way with a few taels of silver?"

Zhong You's voice was unsteady, and he said slowly: "That's not true. Everyone is walking on a path, and how many of them can say that they are on this orthographic path." Then he turned his head and glanced at Shi Yu, and said : "I think he's smart. If you don't want to return all the money, it's better to share half of it. Keep a fate and save me some money." Finally, with sugar in his mouth, he whispered: "Didn't you go to find a car? Why did you see everything?" Already."

Shi Yu didn't reply.

Zhong You bumped all the way, dizzy before his eyes, and even felt sleepy.It was only afternoon, the sky was clear, the sun was warm and the wind was soothing.His eyelids were heavy, he leaned against the edge of the carriage, and woke up in a daze again, straightened up not long after, and continued to lean over.

so repeatedly.

Shi Yu suddenly raised an arm to block behind him.Zhong You closed his eyes and leaned over, leaning on his arm, still sound asleep.

Shi Yu persisted all the way.

When Zhong You woke up, he had already entered the village. He felt that he was leaning on it quite comfortably, but he couldn't find where he was leaning on when he looked back.Shi Yu parked the carriage outside the fenced courtyard, and moved his arms quietly when he got off the carriage.

The two carried their things in together, the paper and ink were small pieces, and the big ones were the things Zhong Youbei gave to the academy.To add to this room, it is a big bathtub and a small screen.

Shi Yu built a scaffolding for things that couldn't be put in the house in the yard, and Zhong You went to the kitchen to cook dinner.The window was open in the kitchen, and Zhong You could be seen busy in front of the stove when looking up from Shi Yu's side.

Shi Yu spread the oilcloth absent-mindedly, watching Zhong You's white finger press on the onion, the knife followed, and cut the onion finely and neatly.A few days ago, the wild vegetables sent by Su Zhou were scalded. Zhong You took a small pot, mixed the wild vegetables with vinegar and spicy, and put them aside to taste.

Oh, that small pot was picked by him when he went back to town last time, and my husband has been using it to mix cold dishes.

Zhong You cleaned up the fresh carp that had just entered the water tank, put the oil in the pan, sprinkled sugar to make small bubbles, and fried the fish into a golden crisp.The movements are swift, and the rolled up sleeves reveal jade-like wrists.

It is quite strong when holding a pen, and quite tempting when cooking.

Shi Yu gradually stopped moving, and a thrilling desire floated in his eyes.

He didn't know why, his chest was beating, and there were shouts one after another, and the shouts were higher than the waves, all crowded in his chest, almost overflowing his dry throat, let him call out the name.

Mr. is so strange.

Let him feel both light and warmth, and feel like fire.It was as if an invisible rope was tied around his neck, and it was tied to Zhong You's palm in Zhong You's tenderness.

He wants to struggle.

Zhong You had already filled the rice with chopsticks, turned to look at him, and shouted with a smile.

"Shiyu, it's time to eat."

When Shi Yu heard the words, he walked over, thinking.

fuck the struggle

The fish is charred and sweet on the outside, juicy on the inside, and you can enjoy this delicious food with one bite.Served with hot and sour wild vegetables, white rice with elastic teeth, and refreshing cold pear soup, this meal is simply the best in the world for Shiyu.

He ate nothing left.

After Shi Yu finished eating, the two of them sat together on the steps under the eaves.The autumn night was cool, when Zhong You's exposed skin got goosebumps when he sat there, Shi Yu touched his shoulder.

"What's the matter?" Zhong You felt in his bosom, and took out a few sweet-scented osmanthus candies left, he peeled off the greased paper with downcast eyes.

"It's late." Shi Yu stretched out his palm, "Mister is going to rest."

Zhong You gave him two, and put one in the mouth himself, saying: "Now I can't see the road clearly, last time I suffered because I couldn't see the road clearly." He stopped here, The tip of my tongue pressed against the sweet-scented osmanthus candy, before I casually asked, "Are you going back tonight?"

"Return." This time Shi Yu answered quickly, he didn't eat the candy, but put it into Zhong You's mouth instead, then stood up and said: "I'll boil the water."

"Boiling water?" Zhong You sucked in the sugar, "Ah." He murmured softly, "That's right, I just bought a new bucket anyway..."

Shi Yuben stepped into the kitchen, and when he heard the words, he suddenly raised his head back, glanced at him, then suddenly retracted, and replied in a low voice: "Mmm... new barrel."

Zhong You accidentally bit his tongue, he hissed lightly, thinking.

Who is not allowed to take a bath.
