Help!The icy grandpa has moved my heart

Chapter 266 Happy Times
Qu Fulan said: "The tea must be picked early in the morning, because the temperature is humid and cool at this time, which preserves the taste of the tea to the greatest extent, and the tea must be picked by a woman who has never done dirty work, so that the taste is the most fragrant."

Pei Ji'an showed a puzzled expression, "I can understand without doing dirty work, why must it be a woman?"

Qu Fulan explained without hesitation: "Because my daughter's skin is fine and delicate, she can touch the most delicate tea leaves. In addition to the natural body fragrance of the woman, the tea leaves picked are also fragrant. Naturally, they are much better than those stinky men."

Pei Ji'an laughed again with a "poof", very hearty: "It makes sense, Ji'an has been taught."

It was rare for Qu Fulan to see Prince Pei smiling so heartily. He used to smile slightly, or the official smile when socializing, but now he was laughing from the heart, making people a little distracted.

It turned out that a person's smile can also be contagious, so she subconsciously laughed along with it.

"Want to pick tea?" Pei Ji'an asked.

"I said yes, will you bring me here?" Qu Fulan asked back.

"Why not?" Pei Ji'an even showed yearning, "You are beautiful, and the tea you pick must be extremely fragrant and delicious."

Seeing his longing expression, Qu Fulan paused for a moment before saying, "Then when the new and tender tea leaves come out, the prince must remember today's promise, Fulan will pick a basket of tea leaves for the prince to go back."

"It's a word."

After walking, Qu Fulan became a little tired, the two of them rested on a stone, and Qu Fulan could make up an allusion just looking at the stone.

"When I saw this stone, I thought of an unofficial history book I had read, which recorded a dream stone. The reason why I named it was because of an allusion."

Qu Fulan spoke eloquently.

"Once upon a time, there was a scholar who failed every exam. He failed in the exam in the year of Dayan. Later, he was drunk and accidentally came to a stone. He took that stone as his ancestor, kowtowed to him, and begged the old man. The ancestors took pity on him and rewarded him with an official position, but when he woke up to take the imperial examination, he was actually selected by one of the candidates, and the stone became famous from then on, and anyone who took the imperial examination would go to the stone to pay homage."

Pei Ji'an was fascinated by hearing this: "There is such a person? Where is he an official now?"

Of course it's fake.

Qu Fulan just made up some historical stories, "I don't know if it's true or not, but I saw it in an unofficial history book, and the book is gone now, so I can't verify it, but it's not the most important thing, the prince knows What is the most important thing?"

Pei Ji'an looked at her and asked curiously, "What is it?"

"After that person won the exam, he was so happy that he went crazy, and he didn't take it as an official. It's really Yang Bailao, and his work was in vain."

"Hahahaha." Pei Ji'an laughed again.

Seeing him laughing, Qu Fulan also laughed.

After Pei Ji'an laughed, he thought: "Who is Yang Bailao?"

"Uh...Yang Bailao is a representative of the common people. He rented the land from the landlord's family. He owed the rent to the landlord's family every year. He couldn't pay it back when he was old. Wasn't his work in vain?"

Ji'an smiled and said, "Where did you learn so much strange knowledge?"

Qu Fulan said without blushing, "I saw it all in the unofficial history books."

Pei Ji'an stopped asking.

Along the way, Qu Fulan was eloquent, and even the big things in her mouth could become very interesting, which made Pei Shizi so funny that the corners of his mouth never stopped smiling.

The happy time always passed very quickly, and soon it was dark, and the two of them did not return to Pudu Temple immediately.

The main reason is that Qu Fulan lived in it for a long time, and it was rare to come out for a trip, so naturally he didn't want to go back so soon.

Prince Pei also wanted to leave early tomorrow morning, and he was not in a hurry to go back. He was worried about the cold night and wanted to persuade her to go back. It was rare to see her in high spirits, and he was willing to accompany him, so he took off his cloak and put it on her, and gave birth by the river again. set fire.

He was very skilled at lighting the fire, and the firewood was burning in a short while.

Qu Fulan was very interested.

She had watched a lot of survival programs in the wild before. In the programs, those people put aside the prosperity of the big cities and went into the mountains alone, struggling to survive with only a knife.

Drilling wood to make fire is often the basic means of their survival, but it seems easier than it is to do, so Qu Fulan admires people who have this technology very much.

Although Pei Shizi came from a noble background, he had stayed in the military camp before, so he probably had experienced the life of surviving in the wild. It was not difficult for him to make a fire in the wild.

But the difficulty lies in how he, as a noble young master, is willing to go to the border to live a rough life without the prosperity of the capital city?
This requires not only concentration, but also courage and determination.

When Qu Fulan was working as a maid for the old lady, he heard people mention that the Pei family had a difficult time, and he must have made the determination at that time.

Qu Fulan didn't know what Pei Mansion went through during the low period, and she didn't ask, anyone's low period is difficult, it is equivalent to the existence of scars, she would not satisfy her curiosity by uncovering other people's scars.

But she's interested in how he rose up in the barracks.

"When the prince first entered the military camp, what level did he start from?"

Qu Fulan had a suspicion in his heart that Pei's father and mother had high status at the border, and he should be able to get some care when he went there, so he wouldn't be like other people who have no status and background and start directly from the lowest ranks.

"Starting from the lowest ranks, you can only sleep on wooden boards and straw mats every day." Pei Ji'an laughed.

Qu Fulan: "..."

The fire light was printed on his face, flickering, his smile was real and sincere, and he didn't mind talking about that time, the extremely difficult years for him.

"Why, why did Hou Ye and Madam ask you to start as a gang leader? Isn't it an overkill?" Qu Fulan said.

"There is no status classification in the military camp, at least under the management of my parents. If I want to go, they only have one condition, that is, start from the lowest rank of soldiers, and you are not allowed to complain about being tired. to stay."

Although the leader of the gang only needs to cook for others, he is not as tired as those soldiers who go to the battlefield, but the leader of the gang is the most annoying existence, because in the eyes of others, he is just a cook, relaxed and comfortable, and his life is not in danger , Doesn't this become someone else's punching bag?Anyone can step forward, anyone can order you to do things, and anyone can order you to do any dirty and tiring chores.

Like doing laundry or something.

Qu Fulan couldn't imagine, "Did you really wash clothes for others?"

"How is it possible?" Pei Ji'an recalled the past, subconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, and his expression became much more vivid, "People who come to provoke me can't beat me, and I won't wash clothes for my defeated subordinates."

But at that time, he was young and thin, and he could beat one, two or three, but he couldn't beat the group of others. They joined forces and beat Shizi Pei fat.

What he said was interesting, and Qu Fulan couldn't help laughing, "What happened next?"

"Later, I took revenge while they were sleeping. Everyone had a hard time beating, once, twice, three times. They had training during the day and needed to sleep at night, but I didn't. They couldn't exhaust me, so they didn't dare to fight again. Find fault."

"Hahaha." Qu Fulan didn't expect that Pei Shizi, who looked like a bright and beautiful man, would also play tricks behind his back, and he would come when he was too obvious.
