Chapter 638 Knowing You Are Coming

After Jiuli left Fan's mansion with a basket on her back, she walked directly on a small path. Even when she left Fan's mansion, she didn't dare to go through the gate, but followed the small hill that she had walked before.

Winter nights are long and days are short.

After sunset, it soon became dark.It's just that although there is no black general coming down at this time, night has already shrouded the surrounding area.

Jiu Li walked briskly through the dark alley, and after turning a few turns, he entered an extremely gloomy small gravel road.

The fallen leaves on this small road have already become a dung pile. I don't know when I will step on it, making a "chirp" sound, and there is an unpleasant musty smell.

Occasionally, the cold wind blew past, blowing into the neck, the biting cold, coupled with the gloomy atmosphere, always gave people a feeling of entering a cemetery, how could this be in the capital?Jiuli couldn't help wrapping her clothes tightly around her body.

After walking a long stone road, Jiuli turned the corner and entered the courtyard without a gate.

There is an extremely weak light coming from inside, if you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.

There are no candles or oil lamps here.It should be the color of the flames emanating from the boiler.

Jiuli quickened his pace and entered the yard in a few steps.

As soon as she stood still in the yard, she saw Granny Lihua and Uncle Zhong standing at the door of the house watching her.

The sound of her footsteps must have aroused their vigilance, so they stood here and watched.

"Uncle Zhong, Granny Lihua." Jiuli greeted them.

They saw clearly that it was Jiuli who came in, especially Uncle Zhong. His deep eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and he pointed inside and said, "Come in quickly, we are cooking pig's hooves. You Granny Lihua said that you will come tonight, and we have been waiting for you."

Jiu Li was stunned for a moment, it turned out that they were standing at the door not because they heard footsteps and came out vigilantly, but were waiting for her here.

Jiuli's little heart seemed to be touched by something for a moment, she held back the tears that were about to flow, pretended to be very cold, pretended to shiver, and suppressed the tears in her eyes back.

Gongsun You was also there, and he was sitting on a stone stool reading a book.

Zhenzhen took out the yellowed military book from Fan's residence, she intended to use it for wrapping roasted sweet potatoes, Jiuli put it away for her.Once when he came to bandage Gongsunyou's leg, he took it out and put it on the stone stool.

Gongsun You sat there quietly, the fire in the fire next to him reflected his cheeks, reflecting his sharp-edged face. Recently, his face has become more rosy and flesh has grown on his face, although he still wears the same tattered clothes rotten.

But the appearance of the handsome son has become more and more clear.

Perhaps it was because of the special smell of medicine in Jiuli's back basket, or from the corner of his eye, he sensed that there was an extra person in the room.He turned his head slightly, and the smiling face was reflected in the soft furnace light.

"Are you here so late?" He said lightly, then stood up.

Jiu Li was stunned for a moment, and said to himself, "Could it be that everyone here knows that I'm coming today? Yes, there's nothing else to do, and I should come here early, but after she's done with a lot of things, this is the time .”

Granny Lihua didn't say anything else, she was busy cleaning up the dishes, and planned to let Jiuli have soup and dinner here.

The meals cooked by Granny Lihua are really unique in the capital, but unfortunately no one found out.

No matter how bad the ingredients are, she can try her best to make delicious food. The taste of Jiu Li Jiu Lian's food is sometimes intentional.
