Cherry Blossoms Upon a Wintry Sword - Chapter 46

Fujiazhuang and Gusu City are almost two extremes. In the city of Gusu, the song and dance leveled up, a bustling scene. However, the people in Fujiazhuang could not eat enough food, and it was difficult to maintain even the most basic food and clothing. Lin Rufei came all the way and saw few villagers. The only few people he saw were all in rags and emaciated, as if it had been a hard time here. It just makes Lin Rufei feel strange that large fields of rice are planted in the fields on both sides. Although it is not time to harvest, from the perspective of the growth of rice, this year should be a bumper year. Farmers rely on the sky to eat. With these rice, no matter what, they should not live like this.

The child Lin Rufei brought on the carriage, sitting in the carriage, ate the dry food given to him by the floating flowers. Although the child was very big, the food was very amazing, and the little belly he ate became round. Lin Rufei was afraid that he would be broken, and quickly asked Fuhua to collect the remaining dry food. The child saw that the dry food was off his hands, and his eyes were filled with tears, but there was no noise, but he carried the floating flower poorly. Floating flowers really couldn’t stand this look, and cast a glance towards Lin Rufei for help.

Lin Rufei also had a headache. He almost never dealt with children. Give him to eat, and he was afraid that he would eat his belly. Do n’t give him to eat, and look at his grievance.

After thinking about it for a moment, Lin Ru Fei had an idea and pulled out a piece of maltose bought from Gusu City from his cuff. This maltose sells very well, it is golden and translucent, shaped like amber, the mouth is soft and dense but not too sweet, it is an excellent snack. Gu Xuan liked it. Lin Rufei bought more, put it in his pocket, and planned to eat it slowly later.

When the child saw sugar, his tears disappeared, but he didn’t reach out to ask, but stared at Lin Rufei eagerly.

Lin Rufei stuffed sugar into his mouth and said, “Dry food can’t be eaten anymore, it will hurt your belly.”

With the sugar, the child showed joy, and thanked vaguely. Although he looked embarrassed and thin, he was much more polite than the children he had seen before. At least he didn’t reach out to grab candy, and even after eating, he didn’t forget to thank him.

Lin Rufei asked the child a few more questions. He learned that his name was Ji, and he lived in Fujiazhuang. The others couldn’t ask any more. However, even if the information was asked, the children’s answers were vague, and most of them were guessed by Lin Rufei himself.

Lin Rufei originally thought that the intersection should not be far from Fujiazhuang, but did not expect that the sky was almost dark, but still did not see the shadow of Zhuangzi. In desperation, several people had to rest in the carriage late. When the child is full, he sleeps in a ball, but sleeps unsteadily. From time to time, he opens his eyes and observes the surroundings. It seems to be a habit that he has developed before.

Lin Rufei was a bit tired after sitting in the car for a day, so he took the rest of his time, left the carriage and stretched his body beside the road.

On both sides of the road, there are various grains. In addition to the layers of wheat fields, there are corn fields that are taller than humans. Lin Rufei looked at the dense cornfield and wondered, “How can there be so much grain like this?”

Gu Xuandu said, “Not surprising.”

Lin Rufei said: “Not surprising?”

Gu Xuandu said, “Did you see any farmer in the field?”

Lin Rufei showed hesitation, then shook his head. This way, he did not see any farmer in the field, but many people sat by the road, looking at it, and it did n’t look like a field. Farmers doing things. Although the farmers work hard, they are not as embarrassed as they are,

“Everything in the world has cause and effect,” Gu Xuandu said. “They always live like this for a reason.”

Lin Rufei said aloud, and he talked about the children on the carriage, just a few words, but found that Gu Xuandu’s expression was a little strange.

“Seniors don’t like children?” Lin Rufei only came up with such a possibility.

Gu Xuandu said: “You like children very much.”

Lin Rufei laughed: “I like it very much.”

Gu Xuandu said, “I don’t like it very much.” He sighed, “especially a child like him …” Although he said so, there was not much disgust in his tone, but Lin Rufei listened. Do not understand the emotion.

Lin Rufei said, “Why don’t you like it?”

Gu Xuandu took a deep look at Lin Rufei: “You think the child doesn’t understand anything, in fact they understand very well.”

Lin Rufei thought it was inexplicable.

Gu Xuandu waved his hand, and quickly skipped the topic, and talked to Lin Rufei again about this strange and strange Fujiazhuang, and asked his family who the invitation was sent to.

As the name suggests, this place is called Fujiazhuang. The most people here are naturally people with surnames Fu. Lin Rufei wrote this invitation with the word “Fuyu” written in crazy grass.

Fu Yu can also be regarded as a juvenile fame, but different from the family members like Liu Rugong, his sword skill is not a family heritage, but a rare sword adventure. It is said that when he was traveling, he accidentally fell off the cliff and got expert guidance under the cliff. After that, the sword technique soared into the sky, defeated several masters in a row, and finally made a name on the river. Prior to this, no one knew the name of Fujiazhuang, and it was not until they made a payment here that they gradually became famous.

But at first glance at the situation in Fujiazhuang, it is clear that the people here have not improved their lives because of their reputation for fish, but still maintain the tragic situation of not being clothed or eating.

Before Lin Rufei, no one in Kunlun had visited Fujiazhuang. It can be said that Lin Rufei was still the first.

So I was a little surprised to see this scene.

Gu Xuan all listened to Lin Rufei’s words, they were not very interested in this fish, and yawned lazily, asking Lin Rufei if he was sleepy.

Lin Rufei said, “It’s really sleepy, so let’s go back and rest.”

After walking around for a while, his body stretched a lot. After a brief wash, Lin Rufei lay in a carriage and fell into deep sleep.

The night was very calm. Lin Rufei ushered in the rising sun in the early morning birdsong. He opened his eyes confusedly, and looked at the child who was in the corner opposite him, 馍 馍 …… It was a cute name Lin Rufei suddenly had such a thought in her head.

Seeing Lin Rufei awake, Fuhua sent hot water prepared for him to wash, and asked Lin Rufei what breakfast he wanted.

Lin Rufei said, “Just eat buns?”

Fuhua laughed: “Why did the young master suddenly want to eat buns?”

Lin Rufei pointed to the child: “Isn’t he shouting?”

The child was stunned for two seconds when he heard this, and then showed a terrified expression, crying vaguely: “No … don’t eat 馍 馍 … no, it’s not delicious …”

He clearly misunderstood what Lin Rufei thought, thinking that Lin Rufei wanted to strike him.

Lin Rufei was amused by his appearance, stretched out his hand and gently squeezed his skinny face, and said, “I haven’t eaten it before, how can I know it is not delicious?”

He Wenyan stared at those round black eyes and whimpered and cried, “No … not delicious, oh oh …” He was talking in his mouth, but did not dare to struggle, which was scared It looked like a terrible poor little rabbit.

Lin Rufei couldn’t help laughing.

Seeing his own son teasing his baby, Fuhua made people cry, and he quickly called Master, saying that the children were timid and weak, and could not be scared.

Lin Rufei heard this, then let go. First, he rubbed his cheeks and pulled out the maltose to coax the child. Of course, the biggest credit still lies on the candy bar. As soon as the candy bar was in the mouth, the child immediately stopped crying, and he still did not forget to twitch, and thanked tearfully.

Lin Rufei bullied the child like this, and there is also a snack, and a dry cough: “Then you do n’t eat ravioli, just make a porridge that is easy to digest.” This child ate so much last night. If he comes again in the morning A big meal will definitely be ruined.

The floating flower weighed well, and left the carriage with Yu Rui to make porridge.

The children chewed corn candy happily, and when they saw the floating flowers, they were about to light a fire. They slowly got out of the carriage, turned into the nearby woods, and when they came out, they already had a small firewood in their hands. Staggered to the side of the floating flower Yu Rui, shouted elder sister timidly after putting down.

After seeing this scene, Fuhua Yurui loved her big hair, took the little guy into her arms, kissed him severely, she was helpless and even a little scared, she said she was dirty and thin It’s not delicious.

Lin Rufei laughed loudly.

I just turned back after laughing, but saw Gu Xuandu staring at the child with a gloomy look, and when he saw him, the gloomy look dissipated instantly, and the laziness of the past was restored, as if Lin Rufei was just on his face The look you see is just an illusion.

Lin Rufei whispered: “Senior …”

Gu Xuandu made a gentle hum.

Lin Rufei said, “… Is there anything wrong with this child?” It seemed suspicious that Gu Xuan could stare with such eyes, even those things that happened in Xiefu before. Did not allow Gu Xuan to show such a look.

Who knew that Gu Xuan all listened to his questioning, but shook his head and said, “No, it’s normal … good boy.” When he said three words of good boy, he deliberately aggravated his tone.

Lin Rufei shuddered in the words of the good boy, saying, “Is there anything wrong?”

“No, it’s just a normal kid.” Gu Xuandu said, “Why, do you think he’s wrong?”

Lin Rufei said, he found that Gu Xuandu didn’t seem to realize his hostility towards children.

When Gu Xuan saw Lin Rufei saying nothing, he also noticed something, and said lightly, “But looking at him, it reminds me of some previous events.”

Lin Rufei: “Previously?”

“Well.” Gu Xuandu said, “Not very pleasant, but it has nothing to do with this little guy.”

Lin Rufei was relieved, thinking in his mind that it was Gu Xuandu who had encountered a difficult child before, so that he would become hostile to the child in front of him? However, Gu Xuan was unwilling to say that he could only guess and couldn’t get an accurate answer.

Floating flowers and Yu Rui boiled the porridge over there, first brought Lin Rufei over and prepared some side dishes for him. The rest is eaten with the rice dumplings, the porridge is not thick, and some supplements such as rice and red dates are put inside. Most of him was drunk.

After dinner, the carriage set off again, and went all the way along the official road.

At this time, Fujiazhuang was getting closer and closer, and there were more buildings and people on both sides of the road, but the building was either a straw house, a mud house, or even a brick building. The people they saw were even more terrible. They didn’t do anything. They sat on the side of the road and stared silently at the speeding carriage. Their eyes were not numb, but they were weird enough.

Yu Rui was driving outside, and when she saw the scene being frightened, Fuhua called her in and sat outside.

“This Fujiazhuang is too strange.” Yu Rui trembled. “Are these people all villagers? They don’t do anything. Why sit on the street?”

Lin Rufei shook his head to signal that he could not guess.

The carriage continued forward, and finally reached the entrance of Fujiazhuang. The village entrance was surrounded by tall walls. There were guards at the entrance. These guards looked very out of step with the villagers next to them. Long sword.

“Where is it going? Are there any documents to go in?” The guard stopped the carriage, but saw the carriage decorated with luxury, so he was respectful.

“No, we are Kunlunlin’s family, and here we are to send invitations to the family’s Fuyu.” Fuhua answered.

When the guard heard this, he immediately became nervous, and ordered the people next to him to ask the situation and let them wait for a while. Before long, the person who asked the situation ran back panting, running and winking at the guard while running.

Seeing this scene, the guard immediately changed his attitude and smiled very eagerly, saying, “Please come in.”

The floating flower fluttered a whip, and the carriage drove into Fujiazhuang. It crossed the tall wall. The scenery inside made the floating flower look like a sorrow. She said: “How can …”

Lin Rufei in the carriage reacted similarly to the floating flower, and was shocked.

I saw that inside the high walls are all beautiful and tall houses. These houses are very exquisite, and even various wall paintings are painted on the outer walls. From the outside, you can feel a strong pride. . On both sides of the avenue to Fujiazhuang, there are a variety of shops. Most of these shops are beautifully decorated. Lin Rufei roughly looked at them and felt that the things they sold were not cheap.

And the pedestrians walking along the road are even dressed in Chinese clothes, which is completely unexpected. They are in the same village as the embarrassing people outside the high wall.

“This Fujiazhuang, how can it look like this?” Lin Rufei sighed. “It is really amazing.”

Gu Xuandu said, “It’s strange, I haven’t seen it before.”

According to the guard at the door, the ancestral house of the Fu family was the tallest one in Zhuangzi. Lin Rufei quickly found the ancestral house of the Fu family in the mouth of the guard. I have to say that this ancestral house was over repaired. Of style. The wall of the courtyard is made of marble with beautiful patterns. The main house inside is soaring into the clouds, which actually blocked the half of the sun in the village. The eaves are carved into the vivid bird shape. The tiles are beautiful vermilion red and clean. You can’t see a moss.

Such a building stands here, it makes people feel out of place.

The floating flower also stunned, saying that this house is more exaggerated than many buildings on Kunlun, how could it be called Zhuang?

Lin Rufei shook her head to signal that she was not good.

“Then we just go in?” Fuhua asked tentatively.

Lin Rufeisi measured for a moment: “Let’s go to the inn first, do you want to live in Fu’s house?”

“No way.” Fuhua quickly shook his head. “This place looks too exaggerated. If I live in it, I will feel terrible.”

In terms of style, both Meng Lanruo and Liu Rugong’s family are very handsome, but the style and the style in front of them give people two completely different feelings. Meng Langruo’s house is full of flowers, and the architectural gardens have been carefully designed with elegant taste. The Liu Rugong family is even more famous. The scenery in the yard complements each other and will not be too exaggerated. And the building in front of me just gives people a sense of inconsistency, like …

“It’s as if someone suddenly has money and doesn’t know how to spend it.” Gu Xuandu said.

Lin Rufei deeply felt.

So the party planned to go to the inn to rest for a while and inquire about the situation before making a plan.

Who knew that when he turned his head and planned to go to the inn, he was stopped by several people who claimed to be the servants of the family, enthusiastically indicating that the owner had now set up a banquet for them.

Lin Rufei didn’t want to disturb them. After escaping a few words, they saw that these people were stubborn, and finally had to respond. The carriage turned his head and drove towards the exaggerated ancestral house.

After the carriage entered Fujiazhaizi, he had been shrunk in the corner, but he didn’t talk much, but suddenly he reacted, his expression became a bit frightened, he couldn’t help thinking about something, and shrank into a ball Like a frightened kitten.

Lin Rufei called his name when he saw this: “Hey?”

I was as if I could not hear Lin Rufei’s voice. I wish I could hide my head under the carpet. Lin Rufei was afraid that he would hurt himself. He reached down and pulled him out of the carpet, carefully holding him in his arms. .

He whimpered, pushing Lin Rufei, Lin Rufei thinking about it for a moment, let Yu Rui bring a blanket, wrapped the whole person in the blanket, leaving only a pair of black Lacquered eyes.

I was born thin and thin, and now it was shrunk into a blanket. It was as small as a rag doll, but fortunately, my emotions finally calmed down, and I tried to cover my face with a blanket. live.

Lin Rufei went by him.

“What’s the matter?” Fuhua wondered. “How did you react so big …”

“I don’t know. Maybe it has something to do with this family?” Lin Rufei hesitated for a moment, feeling that he had brought his puppet into Fujiazhuang a bit recklessly. First, he didn’t know what the relationship between puppet and his family was in case Is it not the enemy that is causing the trouble? The second is that the mental state of the uncle seems to be not very good. If it is stimulated, will it become more serious …

Fuhua obviously thought of this crop, and whispered that it would be better not to tell the family about Fu’s existence for a while, and wait until the questions are clear.

Lin Rufei nodded, thinking it was more appropriate.

When Gu Xuan was sick, leaning beside him and watching without a word, his expression was calm and even a little weird indifference, like resisting something. Lin Rufei’s attention was on the body, and for a while he did not notice the strangeness of Gu Xuandu.

After the supervisor brought them into Fujiazhuang, they took them to the guest room first, and Lin Rufei handed over the puppets to the floating flowers, let them take care of them first, and then went to visit the Fu family first.

It’s enough exaggeration to look at Fu’s ancestral house outside, only to find that it’s only nine cows and a hair. The decoration in this room can no longer be described with exaggeration. Almost every corner is full of various decorations. It is either a gem, a sculpture, or a porcelain bottle. In short, it is like a treasure exhibition room extended by the owner. I ca n’t wait to show all the objects for guests to enjoy.

However, such decorations can only be called vulgar in the eyes of knowledgeable people, even with some ridiculous meaning.

Fortunately, Lin Rufei doesn’t care about these things, but just thinks that the aesthetic of this family is really elusive.

Walking all the way to the main hall, Lin Rufei heard the exaggerated laughter from the room. This laughter was male and female, and seemed to be flirting with more than one person …

Lin Rufei paused for a while, or stepped into the main hall. As soon as he entered, he saw a man in a purple dress holding two hot women in his arms and feeding grapes to each other.

The same is feeding grapes, Liu Rugong has a kind of prodigal taste, and the person in front of him makes Lin Rufei frown.

This man looks really good, but there is a greasy feeling soaked in the pile of fat powder all over his body. He saw Lin Rufei walking in front of the door, his eyes lighted up, and said, “Who did you find Beauty, this looks really good … there are many rewards! “

The news of the steward was embarrassing and busy: “Master, the beauty you want is not here yet. This is a guest of the Lin family!”

The Master Fu family wondered: “Guest from the Lin family? Why don’t I know when I came, no gift?” The steward busy said: “Master, this is the grandfather’s guest!”

Master Fu’s smile immediately converged, and he snorted, saying nothing in the end.

The apologist smiled apologetically at Lin Rufei, saying that he must not be attentive to his son. This is his young master, always like this …

Lin Rufei said, “Is Fuyu your young master?”

Steward: “Yes.”

Lin Rufei said, “Why didn’t you see him?”

Supervisor: “The young master doesn’t like the atmosphere at home and often travels abroad, but we have already sent the letter out, and he will probably return soon.”

Oh, Lin Rufei.

The steward took Lin Rufei across the main hall and reached the backyard where the banquet was held. The Fu family was already seated. When they saw Lin Rufei coming, they all greeted enthusiastically.

Lin Rufei simply returned the gift and sat down next to the owner of the family.

The owner of the Fu family was an old man with white hair, but he seemed to have a good spirit. When Lin Rufei sat down, he greeted him warmly. This family seems to have never practiced, and no one at the table has sword energy, more like ordinary people.

“Lin Gongzi, you are a noble guest in our family.” The owner of the Fu family smiled warmly. “I have prepared several wonderful dishes for you. You must try them!”

As soon as Lin Rufei responded, she saw a very beautiful black horse pulled by, and beside that horse was burning a pot of hot soup.

The author has something to say: Lin Rufei: Are you unhappy?

Gu Xuandu: No

Lin Rufei: Really?

Gu Xuandu: No

Lin Rufei: Really not?

Gu Xuandu: No

Lin Rufei: Since you can’t put down your uncle without you …

Gu Xuandu: Who provoke me by eating a bun?

Lin Rufei: …

馍 馍: oh oh oh I’m not tasty, don’t eat me …
