Chapter 64

Someone was talking outside in the mist, but he couldn't see his face clearly, he could only hear the voice, lazily, with some sleepiness, Yue'e tilted his head, the man had already stepped up, dressed Still draped over his shoulders, dangling leisurely, swayed endlessly by the morning breeze, the lights in the shop were dim, shining on his face, it was brighter than the domineering one in the daytime, but more gentle.

Yue'e was already in a daze, she never thought that this god would appear at this moment.Hearing the sound behind him, Xiao Lang stood up, suddenly saw that it was Jing An, saluted hurriedly, and said, "My lord general, why is it so early, but something happened?" Jing An glanced at Yue'e, his expression was indifferent, but when he saw Xiao Lang again, he was smiling With a full face and curved eyes, she is really approachable, and said in a gentle voice: "Xiao Lang, I can't sleep today, so I came out specially for a walk. When I saw that your shop was lit, I stopped by." It's true that you can't sleep, but Annoyed by what happened yesterday.As for taking a walk on purpose, it's nonsense. Which night owl would come out for a stroll like this, soaked in the cold dew in the morning, and the sun didn't come out?
However, Xiao Lang respects him like a god, so there is no doubt about it.He hurriedly welcomed Jing An in.Later, Yue'e paused, and went to pick up the burnt plums again, thinking to herself: "This man is so abnormal. When he swung his whip yesterday, he was very angry, as if he was going to kill someone, but today he was calm, as if nothing happened. What..." My heart was full of doubts and surprises.

Inside, Jing'an said: "Go and do your work quickly, don't pay attention to me, Miss Yao will be unhappy if you delay your work." Saying this, a pair of picturesque peach blossom eyes looked at Yue'e, Yue'e only acted as if I didn't hear it, and ignored him.

But Xiao Lang said: "What did the general say? It's a surprise that my lord is willing to come. My lord, sit down for a while. I'll boil some hot water for the general to drink." Seeing Yue'e ignoring him, Jing An raised his eyebrows , stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Lang's hand, and said: "Xiao Lang, don't be busy, just listen to me, and work with peace of mind. It would be interesting for Ben Hou to see the lives of ordinary people." Yao Liang heard him say this , then turned around in peace of mind, sat down to light the fire, and said: "What is the status of your lord general, and you are worried about some big things. The thing about the Black Wind Castle the day before yesterday was recited by everyone, and everyone said that you are brave."Jing An was looking at Yue'e in front of him, and saw her holding the basket with one hand and picking up the burnt plums with the other, leaning slightly, with her back to him, an ordinary blue scarf around her waist, her slender waist was not full, and she moved between movements The hem of the skirt swayed slightly, they were all plain clothes, without any effort in tailoring, and they were tightly wrapped, but it made his heart warm to see, Jing An's fingers twitched twice, completely uncontrollable.

While watching, Jing An listened to Xiao Lang's words, turned his head when he heard the words, and said: "It's not fun to be in the army, otherwise it will be life and death. Why, is Xiao Lang interested in this?" He just asked casually Asked, unexpectedly Xiao Lang's expression changed slightly, and he said: "To tell you the truth, I do mean it, I'm afraid I'm not qualified." Over there, Yue'e listened to the two of them answering each other while doing things, and stopped gesticulating.

Jing An glanced at it, and his heart moved slightly.So he deliberately smiled and said: "What's the matter? I think Xiao Lang, you have extraordinary appearance, and you are better than most of my subordinates. If you want to join the army..." Yue'e coughed hastily, and said: "You must not."

Jing An then looked at Yue'e, Yue'e turned her head and saw him sitting at the door behind her, looking at her.Yue'e only said to Yao Liang: "Your hand was injured before, so you can't wield a knife and a gun, why did you forget?" with a slightly reproachful tone.Yao Liang was startled, lowered his eyes, and said nothing more.But Jing An said: "Actually, even in the army, there are civilian jobs that don't use swords and guns, such as military sergeants, they are only for planning and operation."

Yue E frowned, Yao Liang looked at Jing An, his heart was beating wildly, and said: "Master General, can I... really do it?" Jing An smiled and said: "Where there is a will, there is a way. I think Xiao Lang is smart and capable. , but he is a good material." Yue'e was distracted when she heard this, and hurriedly interrupted: "Xiaoliang, it's time to go to the Yamen, didn't you say that you have something to do today and you should go early?" Yao Liangzheng To answer Jing An's words, she was startled when she heard the words, and said: "Yes, but the first cage has not been cooked yet, it will take a while..." Yue'e said: "The cage is not heavy, and I can move it down with one hand. , you go quickly, if you are late, be careful that the teacher is not happy." Yao Liang had no choice but to stand up, and looked at Jing An again.Said: "My lord general, I'm going to the county government office." Jing An said: "In that case, let's go quickly and talk about it another day." An An sat quietly.

Seeing this, Yao Liang had no choice but to bid farewell to Jing'an and Yue'e, and went to the county government with his things.

Yao Liang went out, Yue'e stood at the door of the shop to watch him off, and then stepped in, but saw Jing'an had got up, was looking down at the unsteamed plums, watching Yue'e enter, and said: "Miss Yao doesn't seem to like it. Xiao Lang enlisted in the army?" Yue'e said, "He's young...he's not in good health, so he can't do it. Just find a stable civilian job."

Jing An looked at her and said: "Eldest sister is like a mother, that's true...but it's a bit too doting." Yue'e frowned, and said: "Master Hou didn't know something, when the women were in the Wang family, Xiao Lang works as a helper on the pier, and his hands are almost destroyed in the water and ice every day. He was raised recently. Naturally, he will not be asked to do some risky business in the future." Jing'an thought After thinking about it, he said: "If there is no war, it is actually quite safe."

Yue'e shook her head and said: "Xiaoliang doesn't think much now, if he joins the army, what kind of war will break out in the future, he has a gentle temperament, how can he face the scene of blood flowing into rivers and corpses strewn across the fields?" Jing'an She raised her eyebrows, looked at Yue'e, and said, "Why... Could it be that Mrs. Yao thought that Ben Hou knew how to face those scenes where blood flowed into rivers and corpses littered the fields?"

Yue'e was startled, and looked up at Jing An.In the dim light and shadow, there was a smile on the corner of this man's lips, and under his handsome appearance, he was a bit calm and breezy.There was no trace of the ruthlessness of beheading nearly a hundred people under the order of Black Wind Castle.

Yue'e was speechless for a while, so she had to lower her head and said: "The woman is rude, please don't blame the Marquis, but... if there is a choice, the woman still doesn't want to ask Xiao Liang to join the army." Hearing this, Jing An said, Then he said: "Ben Hou understands, Mrs. Yao is so painstakingly loving her younger brother, and Ben Hou will not be a hindrance. Don't worry, my lady." Yue'e nodded and said: "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your compassion."

Jing An turned his head, and suddenly shouted: "The fire is about to fall out!" Jumping over to the edge of the stove door, Yue'e also saw that the firewood was left unattended, and it fell down with a crackling sound, burning vigorously.Yue'e hurriedly said: "Be careful with your hands." Rushing over, Jing An stretched out his hand to hold the firewood, Yue'e was also holding it, and immediately covered his hand with his hand.Yue'e was startled, and hurriedly let go.Jing An smiled and stuffed the firewood into it.

Yue'e stood beside her and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know how to light a fire, so call me." Jing An squatted on the edge of the stove, getting too close, frowning as he was being roasted, stuffing it in a hurry, and there was a burst of smoke After hearing what Yue'e said, she got up embarrassingly, gave up her seat, and said, "By the way, I saw you were picking up those burnt plums earlier, but this one is Take it easy, I'll do it."

Yue'e didn't have time to stop her, Jing'an took off her clothes, cleaned her hands, came back and stood by the side, picking up the burnt plums one by one onto the cage.Seeing him like this, Yue'e couldn't help but say: "Master Hou, be careful, don't squeeze too tightly, for fear that the skin will be scratched after steaming out." Jing An said: "I know it, just keep it as far apart as you did before. Yue'e smiled slightly, and lowered her head to fill the fire.

Jing An picked it up for a while, found it interesting, put the burnt plums up one by one, heard the crackling sound behind him, he turned his head and saw Yue'e sitting on the edge of the stove, stretching out his hand to fill the fire, Then pull the wind to blow the wind, the red flames are reflected on the face, and the heat is added, making the face more like a peach blossom, and the fire is beating in the eyes, which is not like the usual desolate state.

Seeing that her whole body was warm like a ball of fire, Jing An felt a desire to be close to her, but he couldn't move.

It happened that Yue'e turned to look at Jing An, startled, and asked: "Master Hou is tired? Let's rest for a while." Jing An coughed and said: "No, just stop for a while, by the way, Besides knowing how to make this, what else do you know?" Yue'e then said, "I've been thinking about making soup dumplings recently." Jing'an asked in surprise, "You can do this too?" Yue'e lowered her head, slightly shy, and said: " It's just random thinking, I haven't really made it yet." Jing'an's heart was agitated, and he said unconsciously: "If you make it, you have to let me taste it first." Yue'e heard such words, in the firelight, she smiled Smiled and nodded.

Jing An took a deep look, turned his head away, and continued to pick up those burnt plums, but his mind was in a trance, he just felt that what he saw just now was a beautiful scene that he had never seen in his whole life.

In no time Yue'e finished lighting the fire, Jing An knew that she was going to unload the first basket of burnt plums, so she volunteered.Yue'e didn't argue with him just because her thumb hadn't healed enough, she just asked him to carefully pad her hands with a wet handkerchief, Jing'an stepped forward, bent slightly, pinched the cage drawer, and lifted it up forcefully. When she got down, Yue'e said: "Master Hou, be careful, you can come layer by layer!" Seeing that she couldn't stop her, she wanted to step forward to help, Jing'an said: "Don't worry, I can do it myself." Go to the counter and place it on the long table next to it.

Normally, Yue'e would move with Xiao Lang, if she was alone, she would move one level at a time, and it would be brisk. I didn't expect Jing An to move all three levels down, thanks to his long hands and long legs, Great strength.

Yue'e said: "Your Majesty is struggling, take a break." Jing'an said: "What are these? I practiced kung fu when I was young, and asked me to stretch my hands to carry the bucket. I don't know how much heavier it is than this." Yue'e was stunned and asked: "Hou Ye was young?" Seeing her curiosity, Jing An said, "It seems to be when I was five or six years old." Don't suffer... It's also strange that he said that he doted on Xiao Lang earlier.

As if nothing had happened, Jing An took a good look at it, and without a teacher, he put the plum-burning cages he had placed on the pot layer by layer, Yue'e turned her head to see it, and hurriedly said: "Hold on, Lord Hou. "Jing An stopped.Yue'e went to scoop some water into the water tank again, and added two ladles to the pot before stopping.Jing An suddenly understood, and said: "So that's the case, otherwise it would burn out like last time." Yue'e pursed her lips and smiled, and Jing An put the cage on.Yue'e sprinkled water on the burnt plums one by one. Jing'an asked again, and Yue'e said: "The skin is too dry. If it is only burned like this, it will easily burn. It is not good." Jing'an nodded and said with a smile: " There is such knowledge."

Jing An helped fix it.Yue'e sat down to light the fire again, seeing Jing An sitting on the side, very obedient and quiet, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and said: "Master Hou, why don't you eat the freshly steamed plums over there?" Jing An covetously looked at her Every move, how can I be hungry, said: "Eat it after you steam it together." Yue'e smiled again, and lowered her head to carefully light the fire.

Jing An watched for a while without taking his eyes off it.Although Yue'e only paid attention to Huo, she also knew that he was looking at her, so she felt a little uncomfortable, stopped for a while, and said: "Master Hou, you must be sleepy since you got up early, why don't you go inside and rest for a while." An also knew that she had shown her whereabouts, and she was afraid that she would be upset, so she pushed the boat along and said, "That's right, then Benhou will go in and rest for a while, and after a while, remember to ask me to move it." Yue'e nodded and respected Ann turned and went inside.

Jing An entered the back room, sat on the edge of the kang and thought for a long time, thinking of getting along just now, his heart was filled with unprecedented joy, turned on the kang, first rolled back and forth a few times, and then lay face up, his chest was still heaving and unsteady ... Finally pulled the quilt and fell asleep.

Jing An unconsciously fell asleep, and had a few sweet dreams in his mind, he was so satisfied that he refused to wake up, he couldn't even hear the noise in his ears, when he suddenly opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was already bright, He rolled over in shock, and immediately wanted to see Yue'e. He had promised her to help her get up the cage, but now he fell asleep, which is really shameful.

Just about to go to the ground, I suddenly remembered those dreams I had, and I was stunned for a moment, and slowly recalled, I thought of some lingering and tender scenes, it was really good, I couldn't help but feel the redness of the ground, and a smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.

At this moment, he heard the sound of footsteps outside, coming towards this side, Jing An was slightly startled, and moved swiftly, turned over on the kang, and lay down quietly as if in a deep sleep.
