Chapter 105 The Rebellious Daughter
Luoye Town is located at the junction of Zhongzhou and Yizhou. Three years ago, under the leadership of a wise county magistrate, thousands of families in Xiazhen began to raise silkworms, and since then it has become a place of silk.
Due to its geographical advantage, Luoye Town has developed rapidly, and eating a full meal is no longer a problem. More people are willing to spend their spare money to build a courtyard.
This typical courtyard of the prosperous Tang Dynasty turned Luoye Town into a different appearance within three years, so that Wu Daxiong, who had not returned home for three years, actually didn't know his hometown.
On the official road with a flat ground, the rain was dense. Zhang Xiaodao was sitting in the carriage very quietly, but he complained in his heart why God is so crying recently.
Since leaving Lingyin County, the rain has been going on until today, which has naturally delayed their itinerary. Zhang Xiaodao asked impatiently: "It's been seven days and hasn't arrived yet?"
"It's here."
"Are you here?" Zhang Xiaodao heard this and opened the curtain and poked his head out in an uncertain tone.
In the sight, a town that looked extremely neat and clean came into view. Because of the rain, the town now looks hazy and dreamy.
Zhang Xiaodao's mouth grew slightly and his ears were raised. It seemed that he could hear countless sounds of falling water flowing under the eaves and knocking out a wonderful rhythm.
"This is?"
"It's true that this is true. I just haven't been back for three years, and I didn't expect it to be like this."
"Go in first and talk about it, can you still sleep in the carriage?"
Wu Noixiong nodded and urged the horse to gallop.
The surrounding scenery blurred as the horse accelerated, and the sound of rain hitting the carriage and the sound of horse hooves merged together, and the scene of the fallen leaves town in front of me gradually became clear.
Walking into the fallen leaves, the green bricks and green tiles, the eaves and flowing water are like a painting.
While sighing that the people living here had a generous bag of money, Zhang Xiaodao jumped out of the carriage and stepped on the rain in the stone slabs, and felt better.
After getting off the carriage and carrying a paper umbrella, Zhang Xiaodao found that Wu Daxiong's face was a little wrong.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaodao couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Why, you're too nervous?"
"Nonsense, I haven't seen my daughter for three years. Do you think I should bring something back?"
Zhang Xiaodao thought for a while: "Originally, it's not a good deal to bring local specialties, but what kind of local specialties do our border army have? Should we bring a knife back..."
Wu Nobita looked at the sparsely populated streets and found the sign of Huazhifang. He made a decision and said, "Buy rouge, my daughter likes rouge the most."
Zhang Xiaodao agreed that women have never had any immunity to cosmetics.
After buying rouge from Huazhenfang, he bought another roast chicken. Based on his impression, Wu Nobita brought Zhang Xiaodao to a courtyard in the north of Zhenbei where he came in the rain.
“In the past, there was a stinky ditch.”
Zhang Xiaodao looked at Qinghe, whose ripples were smashed by the rain, smiled and looked at the house road in front of Zhongyuan, which was not luxurious in this town, but was extremely stronger than Lingyin County: "Is this here?"
"It should be."
Wu Daxiong knocked open the door with a nervous expression. A girl in green opened the wooden door and looked at the unshaven man in front of him and stood there dull.
Zhang Xiaodao did not step forward and sighed inwardly that Brother Nobita's daughter is really good.
The girl in blue stands tall and graceful, looks pretty, holding an oil-paper umbrella, and naturally has a unique flavor in the rain.
Wu Daxiong's voice trembled, "Yuebi."
The pretty girl raised her eyebrows and said unenthusiasticly: "Dad."
Wu Daxiong was a little embarrassed, and Zhang Xiaodao walked up at this time, just in time to resolve the embarrassment.
After a brief greeting, the three of them naturally walked into the courtyard. They did not see any object of raising silkworms, but instead saw a man sitting in the pavilion.
The man is not old, with a blushing face and a pretty boy, and he has a sense of arrogance between his eyebrows.
Seeing everyone walking from the courtyard, Xiaosheng did not get up, but picked up a steaming teacup and took a sip.
After Wu Yuebi introduced it, the young actor suddenly realized, bowed and said, "Uncle."
Zhang Xiaodao remained silent, looking for the boy to be Wu Yuebi's boyfriend?
At this time, the young actor began to introduce himself, but in particular.
Xiaosheng was born in a wealthy family and was named Sun Gan. His father is now the Minister of Rites in the court. He returned home with his grandfather in two years, so naturally he belonged to the best family in this Luoye Town.
Wu Daxiong has been a soldier for many years and no longer remembers any other official in Luoye Town. He doesn't think it's strange, but he sees the boy's endless meaning and his disgust gradually increases.
Seeing that Sun Gan showed his identity, the two of them reacted mediocrely, and they complained to the two border soldiers in their hearts, but they didn't know that the two had just separated from His Majesty the Princess of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, so they naturally had a hard time catching a cold about Shangshu or Shangshu.
Wu Yuebi was afraid that her father would be unhappy or her boyfriend would be unhappy, so she said, "What will my father want to eat at night, my daughter will make it for you."
"I bought a roast chicken and just order a side dish."
Sun Gan said angrily: "Since Yuebi's father has returned home, why would I go to Zuixianlou to set up a table to welcome my father at night?"
Wu Yuebi looked at Wu Daxiong inquiring and waved his hand and said, "It's really exhausting to travel these days. Thank you for your kindness."
Sun could have a look in Wu Yuebi's eyes and bowed again and said, "Then I won't disturb you."
After Sun Gan left, Zhang Xiaodao sat on the mahogany chair in the pavilion, looked at the elegant calligraphy and paintings of the vassal in the pavilion, and other decorations. He took a sip of tea, smashed his mouth and felt that it was not as good as the big bowl of tea in Shili Pavilion, so he put it down and said, "I'll go and see the carriage."
Wu Daxiong knew that this was Zhang Xiaodao creating opportunities for him, and he looked a little grateful.
Zhang Xiaodao walked out of the yard and got into the carriage and listened leisurely to the sound of drizzle. Not long after, he gradually fell asleep, but at this moment he heard the quarrel.
Zhang Xiaodao's ears were amazing. After a little concentration, he heard the quarrels in the compound.
"Anyway, it just won't work."
"Dad, why can't it be? Sun Gan's family background is also good, you have seen people."
"Is that kid's face covered with rouge? Why is it so white? It's not reliable at first glance."
"Dad, I told you that this is to respect you. Since Mom left, I have always supported this family alone. In fact, your opinion is not very important."
"When you grow up, your wings will become hard? My dad, I have seen more people than you eat in your life, just that boy? Can he be kind to you all your life?"
Wu Yuebi said angrily: "We have been talking for a year. I don't know what kind of person he is. You just met."
Wu Daxiong sat down and asked, "Daughter, do you think the boys of a big family are reliable? Why do they like you?"
"What's wrong with your crush on me? Are you so unpopular with your woman?"
"I don't know how to tell the truth. I only know who doesn't marry a three-bedroom or five-bedroom child like this? You can stand it then?"
Wu Yuebi was silent. After a moment, she spoke, "Okay, let's not talk about it. Anyway, you haven't cared about me over the years, so now you don't have to care about me."
Wu Daxiong was speechless. He felt guilty and was so choked that he couldn't speak for a long time, so he could only sigh.
Zhang Xiaodao frowned, jumped out of the carriage, walked into the living room, and saw Wu Yuebi's breathing in a big breath, Wu Nobita lowered his head and remained silent.
He whispered: "Brother Nobita."
Wu Nobita raised his head.
Zhang Xiaodao said: "Cooking, I'm hungry."
Wu Yuebi looked at Zhang Xiaodao in surprise, and then saw Wu Daxiong standing up, explaining with embarrassment: "He is older than me."
Wu Yuebi didn't say anything, followed her father into the kitchen, and the sound of a silent and depressing stove fire came from time to time.
Zhang Xiaodao poured another cup of tea until the sunset was poured on the wet stone slabs in front of the yard illuminated by the red light.
The supper was very rich, so Zhang Xiaodao would not eavesdrop on the conversation between the two again. He looked at the torn roast chicken and picked up a piece for Wu Yuebi.
Wu Yuebi looked at him, and Zhang Xiaodao whispered: "Where does the father and daughter have such a big grudge?" Then he put another piece on Wu Daxiong and said: "How old are you? Otherwise, you will just step down and take good care of the girl at home this time."
The two looked at the chicken on the white rice and smiled slightly hesitantly.
Zhang Xiaodao smiled, took a spoon and took a sip of the refreshing cucumber soup, looked at Wu Yuebi and said, "What did you make?"
Wu Yuebi originally thought that Zhang Xiaodao was a soldier, but seeing that her father was a soldier under her command, she couldn't help but feel a little restrained and nodded gently.
"It's delicious." Zhang Xiaodao said again: "Brother Nobita, why am I so puzzled?"
"What are you wondering?"
"Just like you look like a bear, how could you give birth to such a beautiful daughter?"
Wu Daxiong smiled silly, Wu Yuebi's cheeks flushed, but he realized that this was not a frivolous word, but just to ease the tension between the two.
Wu Nobita stood up at this time and picked up food for Wu Yuebi. Wu Yuebi pursed her lips and lowered her head.
"Hehe." Zhang Xiaodao opened the wine pot with him, took a sip on his own, and then began to eat as fast as possible.
After a while, Zhang Xiaodao ate two bowls of rice, patted his stomach and said, "You guys eat it, it's sunny outside, I'll go and play with the knife."
After Zhang Xiaodao left, Wu Daxiong and Wu Yuebi looked at each other. He smiled, and she couldn't help laughing. Then both of them felt that the meal was very fragrant and fragrant.
