green bamboo dream

Chapter 23 Ning Qiu and Lu Haoran

With the improvement of the first case of the epidemic, the dark clouds that had covered Qingzhou for so long finally began to dissipate slowly. There were gradually vendors selling vegetables in the market, and the streets became clean and orderly day by day. 【26nbsp;】

The cool autumn wind blows, and I feel refreshed after taking a deep breath.Standing patiently in line under the warm autumn sun to receive the decoction, the people suddenly felt hopeful for the day, and everyone's face was flushed and beaming.

Ning Qiu, who had changed into a pink cotton cloth with plain face and narrow sleeves, followed Lu Haoran as he strolled along a street next to Lin's Mansion. The lively girl with a cluster of small noses turned her head and said to the indifferent man beside her, "Brother Lu, These are the No. 12 people I saw kowtowing towards Lin's mansion, Mr. Lin is really a good official, and Grandma Wang next door is already able to go to the field, so it's worthwhile for me to queue up early these days." Look carefully Glancing at the other person's face, she said cautiously: "Should we turn ourselves in, after all, it's wrong to gather crowds to rebel..."

"Don't bring up this matter again." Lu Haoran immediately reprimanded sharply: "Qiu'er, don't mention the word rebellion again, you go back and clean up, and we will leave when the lockdown order is lifted." , resolutely strode forward regardless of the girl's terrified expression and red eye circles.

But she was smiling wryly in her heart, she usually dotes on this distant cousin too much, Ning Qiu is still young and naive and thinks that the biggest punishment is to beat the board, maybe she never dreamed that there is such a punishment in this dynasty as Zhu Jiuzu .How could she know that rebellion is such a serious and terrifying thing that she has her own protection even in the most desperate time? Although her brothers and sisters have no intention of seizing Qingzhou, many people know that she is with Wang Huo. The tiger has done a lot of blatantly inciting the people to smash the mansions of officials, and even kill the court officials. The court will not care whether the officials are wrong or not.

Thinking of this, he shook his head annoyedly, and sighed secretly that he was really young and energetic, knowing that Wang Huohu was not a good person, he stepped into the mud all at once, and now it is as hard as heaven to get out.Thinking back, if there hadn't been such a big commotion, it is estimated that Mr. Lin would not have been sent to Qingzhou, and so many people in Qingzhou City would be in danger. Thinking about it this way, he felt much more comfortable.Under the great sorrow and joy, the thought of going back to coax Ning Qiu later was completely forgotten.

Ning Qiu, who was left alone, stood there with tears in her eyes for a while, and the tall and straight figure in the blurred eyes walked faster and faster, farther and farther away, with no intention of turning back at all.Only then did he put away his fake crying, fiercely wiped his tears with his sleeve, muttered and complained, and walked forward.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly saw the back door of the Lin Mansion. Ning Qiu rolled his eyes, and immediately had an idea, and showed a treacherous smile in the direction where Lu Haoran left, telling you to be angry with me, but he didn't listen to you.

Seeing that Yuzhu liked local vegetables, Mrs. Cui asked Mama Liu to cook more, so Yuzhu had another meal of local vegetable dumplings for breakfast.Bai Shengsheng's dumplings are small and exquisite, crystal clear and served in a small snow-white white porcelain bowl. The soup is chicken soup, with black fungus floating in it, green slender diced mother-in-law, yellow diced bamboo shoots, and green onion sprinkled in the middle of the bowl. , topped with fragrant sesame oil, it will make your index finger move.Pick up a white and fat dumpling with ebony chopsticks, take a bite, the fragrance of local vegetables, the softness of tofu, and the deliciousness of pork are perfectly kneaded together, and there are only two big words left in my mind—— tasty.

Satisfied with filling her stomach, Yuzhu lazily stood up and planned to go for a walk in the garden to digest food, because there was a shortage of manpower, and she didn't dare to buy people from outside, so poor Cuiwei had to wash it herself. bowl, Yuzhu came to the garden alone.

Walking slowly on the bluestone ground, only the sound of leaves rustling in the wind can be heard in my ears, and there is silence.Yu Zhu lightly raised her plain hand, caught a dead leaf blown down by the wind, and took a closer look. There was a hint of red in the yellow, but it was quite beautiful. It should be very suitable for making a bookmark. Thick books, the strong aroma of instant coffee in the afternoon... I was dumbfounded.

When Ning Qiu cautiously climbed over the courtyard wall and entered, what she saw was such a scene that stunned her: a girl younger than her was wearing a thin satin beige with light yellow branches and pink roses, and the inside was lined with moonlight. A white gauze satin jacket with a small collar, and a thin dark green long skirt underneath, revealing the toes of a pair of small light yellow embroidered shoes. The wind blows the leaves that fell from nowhere and dances around. Unable to leave a figure in the girl's clear big eyes, the girl's skirt dances with the wind, it is really a world-beating posture and a down-to-earth appearance.

She was stunned, couldn't help but took a few steps forward, accidentally stepped on a dead branch, and screamed in fright, which immediately awakened Yu Zhu from her daze.

Seeing a strange girl in front of her, Yu Zhu was obviously still not in the mood, and asked in a daze, "Who are you? Why are you in my home?"

Ning Qiu approached slowly, saluted hastily, and said in a low voice, "You are Miss Lin, I'm so sorry for scaring you." I have to say that Yuzhu's appearance is still very deceptive and confusing, even a daze can make people think that she is thinking about something.

"I didn't intend to come in through the wall... that one, but it would be too troublesome to report..." Her voice became weaker and weaker, under the gaze of those clear and innocent eyes, it seemed that she couldn't continue to tell any lies up.

"Actually, I want to talk to Mrs. Lin, and I want to talk to her about something..." She glanced at Yu Zhu's face lightly, and then said awkwardly: "Is it convenient? I'll leave if it's not convenient. "The footsteps felt a little guilty and wanted to go out.

It's rare to see an ordinary little girl, Yu Zhu couldn't help but wonder what would make this little girl come to her father, why would she let her go, so she quickly grabbed her, and said in the gentle tone of Grandma Wolf seducing Little Red Riding Hood: "Wait, Dad is still in the yamen now, it looks like the weather is coming back soon, go in and drink tea first, I still have delicious snacks here, you can't buy them outside."

Ever since the outbreak of the epidemic in Qingzhou, people have been in panic. There are no dim sum shops, even rice shops and vegetable stalls. Ning Qiu has not eaten dim sum for a long time. I can't move anymore.
