The untimely fiance dressed as the heroine

Li Ling came suddenly and left quickly, except that he took away a thousand soldiers and horses without leaving any traces.

But in fact the impact is still there.At least with him coming this time, everyone knew that there would be no Western Expedition within this year.The tight string in my heart has been relaxed, and I can arrange things more calmly.

Wen Fei's life suddenly became easier. Except for rushing to the military camp every day and spending half a day dealing with military affairs, the rest of the time was back to leisure in winter.She has more time to accompany Chu Xi, and the two of them don't stick together all the time, but even if they are doing their own things, it is also pleasant to see each other when they look up occasionally.

For example, Wen Fei still needs to lead the army to fight, so he must not lose his ability to ride and shoot, but Chu Xi is obviously not very interested in it.Therefore, the most common scene in the General's Mansion was that Wen Fei was sweating profusely in the school grounds, while Chu Xi was sitting in the shade of a tree beside him reading a book and drinking tea.

Neither of them felt that there was anything wrong with it. When Wen Fei came back sweating profusely from riding and shooting, Chu Xi would put down the scroll in her hand and pour her a cup of herbal tea herself.And Wen Fei quenched his thirst after drinking tea, if he wanted to act a little coquettishly, then he would most likely enjoy the benefits of his wife wiping his sweat with her own hands, which is really beautiful.

Of course, Chu Xi would also refuse, and occasionally pushed people away with her face pressed, with a look of disgust on her face: "You know that you are sweating all over, why do you come to me? Aren't you afraid of fuming me? Go wash soon. "

Wen Fei felt aggrieved, and obediently rolled off to take a bath.

The days are so unsalty, peaceful and comfortable, and it is summer in a blink of an eye.

The winter in Beizhou is very cold, the sky is covered with snow, and thousands of miles are frozen.But when it comes to summer, it’s not much better than Chang’an. It’s just as hot, and it adds a bit of dryness, which makes people feel even more unbearable.

Chu Xi was not used to it, even though it was very hot and stuffy in the house, but looking at the ground outside which was whitened by the scorching sun, she had no desire to step out at all.So much so that Wen Fei wanted his daughter-in-law to ride and shoot with him, but he had to wait until the sun set in the evening and it was a little cooler.But staying indoors is not so easy, and the worst part is that there is no ice available.

Yudong was very annoyed, and often fanned Chu Xi while muttering: "In winter, the snow is so thick and there is so much ice, why didn't I think of saving some? And this Beizhou City, it looks like it's not small. , Xia Tian doesn’t even have an ice seller!”

The general's mansion is rich, very rich, even if it buys ice to survive, it can afford it, but it's very frustrating if it can't be sold.

So within two days, Chu Xi discussed with Wen Fei about storing ice in winter-in fact, it is not difficult, the easiest way is to dig a few wells, and take advantage of the cold weather in winter to dig out large pieces of ice. Put the ice in the well and seal it up, and then open it to get the ice when it needs to be used in summer.And the reason why no one in Beizhou did this is probably because the war was chaotic in the past and there was no peace, and one had to be extremely careful to survive, let alone the matter of Bing.

This is not a big deal, Wen Fei agreed without thinking too much, and then remembered that he might be on the way to the west next summer.But Chu Xi always wanted to stay at home, and the ice was hidden for her to use.

There is very little rain in Beizhou's summer, so Chu Xi doesn't like to go out even more, but not going out doesn't mean she stays in the room all day and does nothing.

One day when Wen Fei came back from the military camp, he saw books all over the yard, and the pages of the books rattled when a gust of wind blew.She looked up at the bright sun, and knew without thinking too much that her daughter-in-law was drying books.

Speaking of which, when the two got married, the Chu family gave Chu Xi a lot of dowries, but the most valuable of them were two carts of books—at this time, it was different from later generations, and you could buy any books you wanted. age of knowledge.For ordinary people, they may never see a book in their entire life, and it is even more difficult for a poor family with insufficient background to get ahead.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the collection of books of the royal family today cannot compare to the inheritance of a thousand-year-old family.As a married woman, Chu Xi was able to bring so many books as a dowry. Firstly, it was because the family valued her, and secondly, it might not be a gesture of favor to Wen Fei.

Who told Wen Fei and her uncle to come from bad backgrounds? In terms of background, they couldn't even compare with third-rate families.

These two carts of books are the details that Mrs. Chu gave to Wen Fei. Maybe many of them are not authentic, but even the knowledge that is transcribed is extremely precious.Therefore, when he went north this time, knowing that returning to Chang'an was far away, Chu Xi took the two carts of books with him.Today's book publishing is not fake, she took out each book by herself, opened it and dried it by herself.

When Wen Fei came back, Chu Xi didn't know how long he had been busy, his little face was flushed from the sun, but his eyes were shining when he read the books all over the yard.It wasn't until a shadow was cast that she looked up and realized that it was Wen Fei who had returned.

Chu Xi straightened up and wiped off her sweat: "Are you back?"

Wen Fei felt a little distressed when he saw it, and pulled the man to avoid the shade under the corridor, and then said: "Let the servants do the drying of the books. Aren't you afraid of heat? Look at this drying, you are not afraid of heatstroke ?!"

Chu Xi didn't struggle, just smiled: "It's you who think I don't want to bask in the sun on weekdays, but now you're the one who's afraid I'll be basking in the sun."

Wen Fei laughed after hearing this: "Yes, yes, it's all me." After speaking, he raised his head and touched Chu Xi's flushed cheeks, feeling a little hot: "People who don't usually bask in the sun, but today's sudden sun exposure , look at this flushed face, I'm not afraid of getting sunburned."

Chu Xi touched her cheek when she heard the words, but she didn't take it too seriously: "Okay, I'll collect it after the sun goes down."

But it didn't wait until the sun went down.

There is little rain in Beizhou's summer, and it has been sunny for seven or eight days in a row, and the clothes and bedding in the mansion have been turned out by the servants to dry for a round.It was also because of this that when Chu Xi found that some of her books had been damp, she decided to turn them all out and dry them in the sun.

But God prefers to be against her. Just two hours after the books in her yard were laid out to dry, the situation suddenly changed, and a sudden rain came.

Raindrops fell without warning, and the sun in the sky was not covered by clouds, so it was sunny while it was raining.The two people who were resting in the room didn't notice it at all. It was because a servant outside noticed that it was raining, which alarmed everyone, and hurriedly packed it up—it was solar rain, and everyone knew it would not be long, but even so, the book was It must not be sprayed, otherwise what should I do if the ink stains melt away?

The noise and commotion alarmed the two of them, and Wen Fei and Chu Xi also went out to collect them.After all the books were finally taken back, the sun and rain had passed, and the little wet marks on the ground didn't last long, and they dried up within half a cup of tea.

Looking at the books piled up in the corridor, the two looked at each other. After a while, Wen Fei asked hesitantly, "Do you want to post this book?"

Chu Xi's forehead was covered with sweat, and he glanced at the sunshine in the courtyard, speechless.But looking at the books that have been drenched by the rain more or less, I still gritted my teeth: "Sun. I don't believe that it is so unlucky that there will be another rain!"

************************************************** **********

One accident is enough, so Chu Xi's two carts of books were finally finished drying in good order.Fortunately, the ink used by the Chu family to copy the books is all good ink, and even if it was accidentally splashed by the rain, it did not melt.

Books are good and not obstructive, but the people who post them are not so good.

Chu Xi stayed under the sun for an hour or two today to dry her books. At that time, she only felt hot, and she didn't feel anything about the tan on her face.But after taking a bath at night, the feeling is not so good—the sunburned skin is getting redder, and it is slightly tingling to the touch. When I go to the bronze mirror and take a photo, the whole person is not good, the red skin It doesn't look too ugly!

Seeing this, Wen Fei quietly leaned forward, grabbed his daughter-in-law's skirt and pulled it down, revealing a section of skin wrapped in the clothes, almost half of the collarbone, and then you can see two distinct red and white color.

For Wen Fei, this situation is not surprising, the most common is after military training.

But for Chu Xi, she had never encountered such a situation before, and she immediately caught her breath, almost crying.

Seeing this, Wen Fei hurriedly pulled back the front of his clothes, and then coaxed: "It's okay, it's just that it was too cold in the sun for too long, and some got sunburned, and it will be fine in two days." It may peel off or turn black, but these Don't tell your wife now.

Chu Xi touched her hot cheeks, and frowned: "Is there any medicine?"

have it?

Wen Fei's military training has always been winter training, three nines and summer training, and the mere sun exposure is not a problem at all. Not only his soldiers, but Wen Fei himself has long been used to it.However, a sunburn is also an injury. The general's mansion is well prepared with all kinds of wound medicines, and sunburn medicines should also be available.

So in the middle of the night, Wen Fei searched here and there, and finally ran to the study to find a box of sunburn ointment.After taking it back and smearing it on my daughter-in-law, it is considered to appease the person.Two days later, the sunburned area on Chu Xi's face was indeed peeling off. It wasn't serious, but it looked ugly.And when the redness from the sun faded away, she turned a lot darker.

After another night of bathing, Wen Fei came out of the bathroom with her hair loose, and saw her daughter-in-law sitting in front of the dressing table at a glance.She paused, and was about to make a detour, but was stopped: "A Fei."

Wen Fei walked over with a smile on his face, stood behind Chu Xi and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chu Xi tugged at her sleeves without turning her head, and Wen Fei bent down knowingly.She put her chin on Chu Xi's shoulder, and her two faces were close to each other. In the bronze mirror, she could clearly see that her complexion was darker, but Chu Xi still asked, "Look, Ah Fei, am I dark?"

Wen Fei blinked, and said honestly, "No, I'm obviously the one who got hacked."

Chu Xi was not fooled, she turned her head slightly to look at Wen Fei, and then nodded: "It's indeed a little dark." Before Wen Fei could react, he took out a porcelain box from the dressing table: "I You have used the red jade ointment just formulated, A Fei, and now you and I are both tanned, so how about applying it together?"

It turned out that it was just a mask, Wen Fei secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and readily agreed.So in the days that followed, whenever Chu Xi applied the mask, he would never forget Wen Fei's.

One summer passed, and Wen Fei, who was running around in and out of the city, not only didn't get rougher, but her skin got better.

The author has something to say: General A (gossip): Have you noticed that the general seems to have turned white?

Lieutenant General B (supplement): More than that, the skin is even better.

Colonel C (sharing): I heard from the messenger that the general and his wife are covering their faces together.

A, B, C (...): When it's over, the general's face is tender, but now he looks more and more like a boy!
