  Chapter 243 Entering My Acacia Door

   Cangshan Mountain is bald, and the snow is falling and haggard.

  Riding the horse all the way, we finally arrived at the small town around four o'clock in the afternoon. Originally thought that the small town was just an ordinary town, but he didn't expect that he just entered the small town and overturned Zhu Pingan's idea.

The small town after the snow is picturesque, with blue slate and black bricks, coupled with the pure white of the place, this small town is just like an ice and snow castle in a fairy tale, the colors are very comfortable and beautiful up.

  The small town is picturesque, but for Zhu Pingan who has been driving all day in the wind and snow, it is not as attractive as a bowl of steaming noodle soup and a warm bed.

  Dismounted and found an inn, paid for the room, and the inn clerk helped to lead the dark horse to the backyard, and then moved the things on the horse to the room.

   "Brother, please bring me a bowl of mutton soup." Zhu Pingan stopped the shop clerk who was leaving, and asked the back kitchen to make a bowl of hot mutton soup.

   "A bowl of mutton soup costs ten cents. If you add pancakes, each pancake costs one penny." The store clerk turned around and promised.

   A bowl of mutton soup costs ten renminbi, which is about two renminbi more expensive than in my own town. It is probably because it is a snowy day today, and maybe it is because I am a foreigner.

"A bowl of mutton soup is enough, but there is no need for cakes." Zhu Pingan took out ten Wen coins from his sleeve bag and handed them to the shop assistant. The reason why he only wanted a bowl of mutton soup instead of cakes was because he brought them from home. The cake is not finished yet.

  The store clerk took the money, promised and went out. While Zhu Pingan was tidying up the bed, the store clerk came in with a steaming bowl of mutton soup, put it on the table, and left.

  The strong aroma is transpiring on the mutton soup, and the pieces of mutton and haggis with complete color, flavor and fragrance are like treasures waiting to be discovered in the soup. How can people stand idly by with such treasures pregnant in the soup.

Zhu Pingan couldn't wait to take out two cakes baked by his mother Chen from the bag, break them into pieces, put them into the steaming mutton soup, and then put another piece in his mouth. The fragrance instantly melted into the whole body, and it was extremely delicious. up.

  The rich and fragrant mutton soup meets the oil cake, it is like a golden wind and jade dew, and it is better than countless delicacies in the world. Snowy winter. There is such a bowl of mutton soup paired with pancakes full of mother's love, it is not too happy.

  Rushing on a snowy day, I am cold and tired, especially after eating. Sleepiness is even more intense. So, Zhu Ping'an simply took off his clothes and lay down on the bed to sleep. Even the idea of ​​taking a hot bath was forgotten. He was too tired.

In the past, I often heard people say that weak scholars are weak scholars. In fact, think about it, if scholars are really weak, if they are really weak and unable to resist, how can they travel long distances to Beijing to catch the exam? This era travels long distances to Beijing It's really unnecessary to rush for the exam. It's commonplace to eat and sleep in the open air. Therefore, it is a big mistake to say that there are weak and weak scholars. I have only been away for a few days, and I feel very tired. It is really not easy for those scholars who have traveled long distances, especially those who rushed to the capital on foot.

   Not long after, Zhu Ping'an snored and fell asleep.

  The Li family in Shanghe Village passed Laba, the red lanterns were still hanging high, and the servants were doing their work in an orderly manner.

   When it was almost evening, a horse neighed from the door. Wang Xiaoer, who was going to deliver a letter to Zhu Ping'an, also entered the house.

  Miss Li's boudoir is burning with three braziers, and there are water basins in the corner to replenish water. Even in the cold winter with heavy wind and snow, the room is as warm and comfortable as spring.

  Miss Li sat in front of the table and chair by the window. He was looking out of the window full of thoughts, as if he was waiting for someone. On the desk where Ms. Li was sitting was a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. In front of the desk were several handwritten pamphlets of fairness. Under the girl’s hands was a piece of rice paper. On the rice paper was a line of poetry.

   "Entering the gate of my lovesickness, you will know that lovesickness is painful. Long lovesickness is long-term lovesickness, short-term lovesickness is endless. If I knew it was so stumbling, why didn't I know each other at the beginning."

  Suddenly there was a sound of small steps outside, Miss Li's eyes lit up, and when she looked up, she saw the bunny maid outside the window trotting towards the boudoir with her skirt in her hands.

   "Miss, miss, Brother Wang is here."

   A few seconds later, Baozi's little maid ran in panting, and yelled and reported to her own lady as soon as she entered the door.

"Come on, Miss, I'm a little hungry. You go to the back kitchen and ask the cook to make me a tofu crucian carp soup. The taste should be lighter today. I can't trust others. Well, before going to the back kitchen, take Wang Xiao Two, call me."

  Li Shu calmed down, picked up the brush calmly, continued to write the poems she hadn't finished, and didn't lift her head when she ordered the little maid of Baozi.

   "Well, I'll go right away." The little girl Baozi heard that the young lady said that she was the most trustworthy, Le's little face was flushed, she nodded repeatedly, and trotted out with her skirt in her hands.

   After about five minutes, an old woman led Wang Xiaoer in, and the old woman stood at the door after receiving it. When Wang Xiaoer walked in, he kept his head down, he didn't dare to look up at anything in the lady's boudoir, he only looked at his own toes, and stopped after taking three steps.

   "Wang Xiaoer, what's his reaction?"

   After Wang Xiaoer and the old lady entered the door, Li Shu stopped her brush and asked indifferently, as if she didn't care, but her ears were still open.

   "My uncle was a little surprised and suspicious when he heard about the engagement." Wang Xiaoer replied with his head down.

  Hearing this, Li Shuxian held a brush in her hand, and unknowingly stained the rice paper under the brush with a large cloud of ink.

   "However, after the younger one handed the marriage certificate to the uncle, the uncle read it, nodded and put the marriage certificate close to him." Wang Xiaoer continued to reply with his head down.

  Hearing Zhu Ping'an nodded and put the marriage certificate close to him, Li Shu's brows stretched. She didn't expect that idiot to put it close to her, and thought that he would come back and annull the engagement as soon as he got hot-headed.

   "Did he say anything?" Li Shu narrowed her eyes slightly and asked with interest.

   Wang Xiaoer lowered his head and narrated the question and answer between him and Zhu Pingan to Li Shu. After Li Shu heard this, she curled her lips, this idiot is not afraid of being exhausted, he has a horse, so why is he in such a hurry!

   "When I first met my uncle, my uncle was meeting a wild wolf." Wang Xiaoer paused, and told about Zhu Pingan's encounter with a wolf.

   "Huh? How is he?"

  Hearing this, Li Shu, who was still calm and relaxed, pressed the brush on the paper at once, and made a sound of surprise, her pretty face was full of worry.

  The next second after asking, Li Shu realized that she had overreacted. Besides, since Wang Xiaoer can report to herself like this here, it must be because the idiot is fine.

   "It's really unlucky. An accident happened just after the engagement. If others find out, they can't blame me, Kefu."

  So, Li Shu coughed, and returned to her calm and calm appearance, and found a step for herself in her mouth.

   "My uncle is fine at all. Thanks to the lady who sent the little one to deliver the letter, I arrived in time. I stabbed the wolf to death, and my uncle was not injured." Wang Xiaoer put all the credit on Li Shu.

"Oh."

  Li Shu let out a faint oh.

  The room was quiet for a moment, Wang Xiaoer lowered his head to look at his feet, and then heard his lady's order.

"Forget it, save others saying that I'm going to die hard, so don't go to my father this time, pack up and go north. Well, since that person wants to travel thousands of miles, you should protect him in secret. Don't come forward if you have nothing to do. My father, I will say it myself. "

  Li Shu crumpled the ink-stained rice paper into a mess and threw it into the wastebasket aside, giving a casual order.

   "I'll go down and clean it up now." Wang Xiaoer bowed his head and bowed his head to answer, then stepped back while bending his waist.

   "Wait, did you buy the medicine I asked you to buy?"

   When Wang Xiaoer pushed to the door, he suddenly heard a question from the eldest lady.
