[Red Chamber] Jagged Lin Daiyu

Chapter 123 The Truth

Qin Zhongyu said: "Liu Qiqi's home is in Taoliu Village, Handan, Hebei."

Xiang Baozi nodded happily: "Okay, Handan is near Taihang Mountain, I have been there."

Qin Zhongyu looked at the sky, heard the Taihang Mountain again, and said subconsciously: "If you want to cross the Yellow River, I will climb the snow-covered Taihang Mountain. Will this trip go smoothly?"

Xiang Baozi didn't care if the trip would go smoothly, he raised his chin and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes, it's going to be dark when you leave the city like you."

Qin Zhongyu obediently rolled over to put on the brocade fur coat, then poked his head out and asked, "Is it cold to ride a horse in winter?"

Xiang Baozi nodded: "It's cold, don't you know?"

"I don't know, I always make a sedan chair when I go out in winter, and, I usually don't go out of the city."

Xiang Baozi personally went to guide him through the door: "What kind of fur coat?"

"Fox fur. It's very itchy in the fur. Do you have to wear sheepskin riding overalls for the trousers? I made them when I was young, but I haven't worn them until now. The old housekeeper found them for some reason."

The old housekeeper said beside him: "Master, when you go out in winter and ride a horse on the official road, the wind is like a knife, and it hurts all over your body."

Qin Zhongyu didn't quite believe it: "Really?"

Xiang Baozi said: "The old man is right, you listen to him. People who practice martial arts can't handle it, let alone you."

Qin Zhongyu obediently was dressed as a leather ball by the old housekeeper, sweating in the room, and was also put on a big leather hat.He felt that the clothes on his body weighed four to five catties, and he gasped: "Okay, I'll go out to cool off."

The old butler grabbed him and pressed him on the bed: "Change your boots!"

Qin Zhongyu struggled unsuccessfully, and was pushed on all fours by the old housekeeper, with all four feet facing the sky: "How can I ride a horse when I'm dressed like this?"

The old butler said earnestly: "The wind is the first of all diseases. If you don't pay attention when you are young, it will leave the root of the disease." Then he took off his boots and put on a pair of warm boots.He took two steps back, thought about it, turned around and left.

Qin Zhongyu struggled and tried to sit up, but he had never worn such a thick fur, and he couldn't even bend his waist, and the result of his efforts was that he rolled around on the bed.

Xiang Baozi stood at the door and stomped his feet with a smile: "Hahahaha, don't roll around on the bed, get up quickly."

Qin Zhongyu struggled and stretched out his hand: "Help me up."

The old housekeeper came back with three purses and a short knife: "This purse contains gold, this purse contains silver, and this purse contains medicine commonly used in winter, to prevent frostbite. The knife is tucked in his bosom, and he can spend money in case of trouble." It costs money to solve it, and don’t be vague when it’s time to do it.”

He already knew who Xiang Baozi was, and basically knew where the young master was going, and he also knew that the young master didn't take anyone with him when he went out!If he went out alone with the girl in the winter, there were only two outcomes, either he would get married after he came back, or he would die outside.He came to salute Xiang Baozi again: "Miss Xiang, my young master is entrusted to you. He has never traveled far, doesn't understand the world, and doesn't know how to take care of himself. He doesn't even know the way! He doesn't take the boy out, hey , Miss Xiang, please take care."

Xiang Baozi returned the salute by cupping his fists: "The butler is too polite, I will take good care of him." As for it being so bad?

The old housekeeper asked again: "Miss is going out with him, does the family know?"

Xiang Baozi said: "I've reported it. I have traveled all over the world for many years and have rich experience. Although the place I'm going to is not familiar, I've been to Handan several times, and the road will be fine."

Qin Zhongyu was wrapped into an Eskimo by the old butler full of paternal love, and walked out while sweating. He walked around the yard twice, and said angrily, "Uncle Quan, what will I do later?" Get on a horse? Dress like this, you can't lift your legs."

The old butler put on a straight face: "When the ancestors led the army to fight, they dressed like this so as not to leave the old wounds of the wind and cold. All the colleagues who were lazy and greedy for cheap in the army got old cold legs."

Qin Zhongyu stepped on the horse-mounting stone and jumped for a long time, but he didn't jump on the horse's back.

The old butler: "Come on!"

Xiang Baozi thought it was funny, but couldn't bear to watch it any longer. She was a little impatient. It gets dark early in winter, and if it continues like this, it will be afternoon.He sneaked around behind him, pushed him, and threw him onto the horse with his buttocks in his hands.

Qin Zhongyu screamed: "Ooooooooh! Hey? Ah..." (⊙o⊙) Ah!Ass touched!

Xiang Baozi also wears leather-lined jacket trousers and boots, but the tanned ones are softer and the leather is thinner.

She got on the horse handsomely: "Old butler, take your leave."

The two drove hand in hand, bid farewell to the old housekeeper, and set off on the road.

After half an hour.Qin Zhongyu was blown to tears by the strong wind in the wilderness and the unsheathed cold wind on the official road, and wiped away his tears: "Uncle Quan is right, luckily the clothes are thick enough."

Xiang Baozi thought: He is so cute.

Daiyu lay on the bed and stuck out her tongue: "It's really unpalatable! Why are herbs so unpalatable,, Shennong's taste of herbs is really amazing."

The boiled soup is so weird that it makes people want to vomit after taking a sip, and the fresh grass roots and bark must be even more unpalatable.

Yao Sanlang said: "That's right, so he is one of the three emperors, and he has made great contributions to the creation of all peoples! Would you like some more candy?"

Daiyu said listlessly, "I don't want to eat sweets."

Yao Sanlang suddenly remembered: "Brother Bi Lu sent a jar of tea, please review it, how about soaking it for a taste?"

Daiyu nodded approvingly: "Okay, Senior Brother Bilu's tea is delicious."

Yao Sanlang dug out his sleeves for a long time, found the tin can, and complained: "Sister, brother, he also added a note in the tin, writing 'Yao Sanlang is not allowed to steal', I just opened it and smelled it, He actually wrote that kind of thing, and on the second package, he wrote, 'You are not allowed to drink, but you want to drink', it's really annoying."

Daiyu couldn't help laughing: "Brother Bilu really understands you! This is a brilliant plan!"

In the story told by Wen Sijie, Zhuge Wuhou likes to write tricks in his bag, and he writes one when he is free: "Don't read it until the critical moment", and the generals usually can't help it, and tear it down as soon as they go out. It's 'told you to watch it at a critical moment!disobedient! '

Yao Sanlang looked at her aggrievedly, and handed the jar over: "Do you smell the taste, if it's not good, don't drink it."

Daiyu thought it was super funny to see him so narrow-mindedly venting his anger on his senior brother, he looked so young with a pout.She took the jar with a smile, picked out the tin square tea caddy, and held it in her hand, which was heavy and compact.Opening the lid, she saw that there were tea leaves wrapped in small white papers. She picked up a bag and looked at it over and over again: "Brother Sanlang, did you drink the two bags with the words on it?"

"Huh? No, I won't tell you if you drink it up." Yao Sanlang just went out and ordered the maid to boil a pot of hot water to heat the teapot and teacups. When he came back and heard this, he leaned over to look puzzledly: " Words literally disappear! It's so strange,"

Daiyu took out the second pack of tea leaves, which smelled sweet and fragrant, with a sense of aura.

There is no writing on the second bag of tea, and there is clean white paper.Daiyu said with a smile: "There are no words, and you are teasing me again."

To make me happy on purpose?

"That's impossible. When did I ever lie to you?" Yao Sanlang also took out the remaining two bags of tea leaves. He saw the words on the bottom bag. Pour it into the tray and read on the paper: "I found that the aconitum juice was burned into ashes, and it was ground into the ink together with the incense ash. After the written characters were completely dry, they would disappear when they saw light or dark."Interesting? '

Yao Sanlang's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself: This is so interesting, it must be fun to write a letter with this kind of ink to scold people, the man was so angry after reading it, and when he took the letter to confront him, he only took out a blank sheet of paper , oh ha ha ha ha ~ uh, forget it.

Daiyu held the paper and looked at it for a while: "Senior Brother Bilu's handwriting is really clumsy." It was intentionally round and fat, and there was a thin and tall character in the middle, which was cute, dexterous and lively. It looks very rustic, full of vitality.

After looking at it carefully and pondering it carefully, the more I feel that the writing is like a god, the shape is scattered but the muscles and bones are not scattered.The brushstrokes are lovely, and I can't help but use my lotus-like fingers to try to trace his strokes on the table, and study the beginning and end of his strokes.

Yao Sanlang knew that his handwriting was not good, that he was well-behaved, and he didn't ask for her evaluation.

Sure enough, when I brought boiling water and started making tea, the thick ink on the paper gradually faded under the indoor light.

After the tea was brewed, by the time I drank it into my mouth, the words on the paper were so faint that I could barely see them.

She ordered the maid to grind the ink, brought the best flower paper, pondered his handwriting, and slowly wrote a piece of characters that were also round and plump, with different heights and lengths, but very harmonious characters, to praise his tea delicious.After I finished writing, I picked it up and admired it: "The words are quite appropriate, but the writing is too crafty." Brother Bi Lu's handwriting is casual and simple, as if "it should be so", while mine is a bit blunt.

Watching this scene, Yao Sanlang silently decided that in fact, I should not only study more, but also practice calligraphy well.

Daiyu liked this cute font very much, so she couldn't help but wrote a post to Master, and then remembered that Master couldn't appreciate the font, so she wrote a letter to her parents, and wrote greetings in a serious way, and then her style of painting changed suddenly.

Looking at the letterhead she was holding, she couldn't help smiling, she thought it was so cute~ so cute~

The author has something to say: Obviously, tomorrow will reveal the secret.

Ah Jiang is so cute!
