Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I was still wondering what he meant by "fun". When our boat stopped at another quiet and old ferry, there was not much to guess.

He helped me, two people boarded the clean but humble trestle bridge. The scenery here is better than the ferry just now. It is surrounded by a lush green sea formed by reeds. As the river wind blows the continuous rolling waves, the waves Bilang brings a particularly cool feeling, and faintly can see various wildflowers hidden in it, like a few starlights dotted in the night sky.

At the end of the river beach is a towering mountain peak, above which you can see the old and abandoned plank road. It used to be a place with good scenery. Now that there are no people in Shino, it is more and more quiet and picturesque.

I looked at the surrounding landscape with a smile. Pei Yuanxiu hugged me and said softly, "Do you like it?"

"Yes, I like it."

"Today, how about we stay here for one day?"

"Stay for a day?" I froze, looking around, there are no houses or cottages to live in, and it looks like the deserted here doesn't look like someone's house. Is it going to be a curtain?

Looking at my doubts, he smiled: "When I went to Jixiang Village to see you, I saw that some fishermen lived on the boat. They were very happy. Today we will try both, shall we?"

It turned out that he had the idea.

But happy?

He is really improper and does n’t know that the rice, oil, and salt are expensive. Those fishermen are so poor that they cannot live on the boat. Who would like to live without a place?

I didn't say this explicitly, just smiled slightly, and said, "Okay, let me be a fisherwoman for a day."

.

Although I have never been a fisherwoman on the boat, my two lives in Jixiang Village have made me familiar with household chores. What's more, this is just a look today, and there is no housework to do.

The boatman left after rowing here. Of course, I also know that although it looks like nobody is here, it is impossible for Pei Yuanxiu to be alone with me, but his interest is very high. After taking the fishing rod and bait from the boat, he sat on the bridge head and started fishing with a swing.

And I had already raised the stove by the river, washed the pot, and waited for his harvest.

As a result, he had been waiting for two hours, and it was getting dark. He didn't even catch a little caterpillar.

I sat in the cabin and had been dozing for a while, and then came out to see, he was still sitting there empty, frowning and staring at the water, almost staring out of the hole in the river.

I couldn't help laughing, "Did you plan to be so hungry that we couldn't even see the fish, and jumped into the pot ourselves?"

He looked up at me and smiled a little awkwardly.

"I watched them fishing but just sitting by the water, why can't I?"

I smiled and shook my head. People sitting quietly fishing near the water, but watching him, it was just quiet.

But I didn't say much. I just sat on the edge of the boat and started to take off my shoes and socks. He froze and asked, "You, what are you doing?"

"If you want to eat fish, how can you not wet your feet?"

I laughed, put my skirt around my waist, and got out of the boat barefoot. At this time, the weather had begun to warm up, and the river water was still a bit cool, but it wasn't too cold to be kicked. I was a little bit stunned, but quickly adapted. But Pei Yuanxiu said in a hurry: "Green baby, watch out for cold!"

I was standing in the cool shallow water, and I started to bend down and move the stone. I smiled and replied, "I'm not as delicate as you think. I had been with my child for seven or eight months, and I still did work."

He stood at the bridge head, and didn't speak for a while. He saw that I kept moving stones from the shore into the water, and I took off my shoes and socks and jumped down, saying, "What are you going to do, I'll help you."

I smiled and pointed at a rock on the shore: "You help me move a few more."

He really went obediently and moved back and forth a few times. Although two people stepped barefoot in the cold river water, there was still a fine sweat on their foreheads. I carefully put the stones under the water in the shallow water. I took a circle around the place, and then returned to the boat and took a piece of pastry, smashed and sprinkled it in, and ignored it. I continued to turn around on the bow to find the west. Pei Yuanxiu asked me in wonder: "What's this for?"

I looked up and saw him standing stupidly in the water. The original chic white coat had been stained with a lot of mud, with his bare feet, and he was so different from his usual temperament in ordinary days. Can't help but laughed loudly.

When he saw me laughing, he looked down at himself and couldn't help laughing.

Then he said, "I look like this, isn't it funny?"

I covered my mouth: "If someone sees it, they will think they are dreaming."

"I won't let others see me like this." As he said, he came over a few steps, chopping the bow with one hand, and said, "Only you can see."

I looked at his eyes with a wide smile, smiled and didn't speak, just looked down and continued to find, and finally found what I wanted in a bunch of appliances.

"found it!"

Pei Yuanxiu took a look. I was holding a harpoon in my hand, and my eyes widened in amazement: "You--"

I jumped down from the boat with a smile. Although it was not high, the splash of water that stepped on still wet his body, and even splashed water on my face. I glanced back at him, smiled happily, and took the harpoon. Slowly walk towards a little deeper water in front.

Pei Yuanxiu followed me and said in a hurry: "Be careful, Qingying!"

"Shh-"

I turned back and made a gesture at him, and then stared at the front. Under that clear water, a half-large fish was swinging its tail in a leisurely manner. I walked carefully with my harpoon, just When I aimed at the fish and tried to insert it, I suddenly remembered something, stopped the movement, and shifted my sight slightly.

Pei Yuanxiu looked around, confused, but he didn't dare to speak.

I probably pinched the position a bit, then held my breath and slammed in-

A splash, a huge splash, the fish was being caught by my harpoon, and the pain was soaring, the splashing water droplets wet my face, and Pei Yuanxiu beside him smiled with surprise: "Ah, I really caught it!"

I laughed happily and raised my harpoon towards him: "Look! I learned fast!"

He stung for a moment, and I had come up to the shore with a harpoon, taking the fish down and saying, "This kind of fish soup is very delicious, you must have never tried it!"

"..."

"Also, don't you like to eat the braised fish I made? I'll make it for you when the water returns later, and wait a little longer."

"..."

"I'll give you a big meal today."

"..."

I said happily, but the person behind did not respond. I felt something. I turned around and saw that he was still standing in the water and looking at me, and said, "What's wrong with you?"

"..." A smile appeared on his face: "Nothing. How to make fish soup, I'll help you."

I smiled and handed him the fish: "Well, clean up."

.

I thought it was a simple thing. Who knew that he would not clean up the fish at all. After a long time, he not only did not clean it, but made his hands blood on his face, and he was embarrassed. My pot was almost red. Without waiting, I just walked over to do it myself, packed it three or two times, put the fish in the oil pan and fry it on both sides, then added water, and put the chives and **** slices into the fishy, ​​no After a while, the soup was burnt milky white, tumbling in the pot, and a strong aroma spread around.

I took the small bowl and filled it with half a bowl and handed it to him: "Taste it."

He took it, bowed his head and took a sip, and I immediately asked, "How is it?"

"Well, it's delicious."

Two people were surrounded by a half-pot of soup. Although there was no other delicious food, they drank deliciously. When the pot was bottomed out, it wasn't too early. The sun set in the west, and the golden sky was left, and the entire Yangtze River was plated. With a thin layer of gold.

The scenery is just right.

I was sitting side by side with him on the bridge, and I didn't care about wearing shoes and socks. There were red / bare ankles to hang there, blown by the evening wind, and a little cool. Pei Yuanxiu glanced down at me and said softly, "Put on shoes and socks, watch out for the cold."

I didn't speak, just listening to the feng shui in my ears, the swaying sound of the reed leaves and the rustling sound of the river flowing over the rocky beach, and then looked up at him: "Let's go, let's close the net."

"Close the net?"

He froze again, totally unaware of what I was talking about, but still quickly followed me and jumped off the trestle, and walked to the place where we just moved the stones and circled. The river has receded a bit, and the stones that were still underwater just now The circle had already surfaced at this time, with a shallow layer of water in it, and several small fishes were swimming anxiously, constantly hitting the surrounding stones.

When he looked at it, his eyes widened in surprise immediately: "How can this be ?!"

I walked over and counted a total of five fish. I was so happy that I clapped my hands: "This method really works!"

He looked up at me.

I've squatted down and started catching fish: "Come and help me, I'll rely on these candied fruits at night."

.

The fish caught is not large or too many, as I said, it is enough for two people to preserve the fruit.

However, it is happier than the other day.

Although there is no mountain and sea flavor, no garden beauty, no leisurely listening to opera in the restaurant, no lively watching juggling in the street, but the spiritual relaxation is more relaxing and comfortable than the physical pleasure.

After night, we didn't leave here either.

What he said, to be a floating family for a day, I naturally follow him. I simply washed it, took away the small table and cushions in the cabin, laid out the mattresses for the rest, and a thin quilt. Here, It became a humble bedroom again.

I lay on a "soft" bed that was not soft and comfortable, and felt that the hull was still shaking slightly with the flow of the river, but that feeling made people feel very calm, even stable, as if everyone was in the arms of their mothers when they were young The memory is average.

And in this little black awning boat, it seems that there is still a smell of fish, intertwined with the faint smell of water emanating from the surrounding river water, which is once so familiar.

I wrapped the quilt that wasn't soft and closed my eyes comfortably.

Just then, I felt the ship move.

No, it wasn't the ship that moved, but the people around him moved.

I opened my eyes, but there was no light in the little black awning, and there was nothing so dark. I hadn't reacted yet, and I felt a hot hand on my cheek, and I was touched by that palm. The temperature was hot for a while.

"yuan--"

I didn't finish talking, the next moment, my lips were blocked.
