Yun Chuyao was really hungry.
Even though the vegetable dumplings at the old woman's house were dark and looked very poor, she didn't dislike it. She held a dumpling in both hands and took a big bite!
In an instant, her face turned green!
This dumpling!
This dumpling turned out to be sour!
"How is it? Doesn't it taste bad?" The old woman said with a kind face, "My girl made this by herself. It's so fragrant that the old man and I couldn't bear to eat it. We kept it in the jar and took it out today. .”
Yun Chuyao froze on the spot.
She knew each of these three words: summer, vegetable dumplings, and left out for several days, but when they were connected together, they only made Yun Chuyao dizzy!
For a moment!
She even suspected that the old woman was also an assassin! I still want to poison myself with such a vegetable dumpling!
But how kindly she smiled!
Yun Chuyao was so kind that she couldn't bear to spit out the sour dumplings in her mouth. After hesitating for a long time, she still had a heart and swallowed the dumplings.
"……tasty."
She heard herself say with difficulty: "It's delicious, thank you, mother-in-law."
"As long as it's delicious," the old woman said with a smile, "Eat as much as it's delicious. There's still more in the pot. You're welcome. Children of your age, if you eat more, you can grow taller. But first, my husband. Don’t let it grow too long, it’s almost enough.”
Yun Chuyao: "..."
She couldn't eat anymore.
Yun Yanli is her seventh emperor brother, not her husband-in-law!
Fortunately, after the old woman said this, she didn't give any more instructions. She walked back to the east room with a smile on her crutches and left all the vegetable dumplings to Yun Chuyao.
"There are three more."
Yun Yanli hesitated for a moment, then picked up a vegetable dumpling and said, "Yao Yao can eat three."
Yun Chuyao: "!!!"
You want me to eat three more?
Who is so vicious!
She raised her head suddenly and looked at Yun Yanli behind her, just in time to see him secretly swallowing saliva, she couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth, trying to stop him: "Don't-"
Not finished yet!
Yun Yanli opened his mouth and took a big bite of the vegetable dumpling!
Hey.
She didn't stop!
However, Yun Yanli could endure it better than Yun Chuyao. Even if the vegetable dumplings were rancid, he just frowned, said "a little sour", and took another bite.
Yun Chuyao: "???"
Are you not picky about food?
She quickly stopped him: "Don't eat it, Brother Huang, didn't you hear what my mother-in-law said? This dumpling has been there for several days and has already gone bad. If you eat it, be careful of your stomach."
"fine."
Yun Yanli ate the vegetable dumplings in just a few bites. After hearing Yun Chuyao's words, he just said vaguely: "I always ate bad rice before, so it won't hurt my stomach. You don't have to worry."
As he said that, he paused again and said, "Yao Yao, don't you still have some dried meat? Eat dried meat and preserved fruits as a cushion first, and don't eat this vegetable dumpling."
Yun Chuyao opened her mouth.
Without waiting for her to react, Yun Yanli took the bitten vegetable dumpling in her hand and ate it one bite at a time.
Yun Chuyao was shocked: "I've bitten it!"
"I know," Yun Yanli was stunned for a moment and said, "You can't throw it away, right?"
Yun Chuyao opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but for some reason, she felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle. She hesitated and only said: "You should also eat less, so as not to ruin your body."
Finished.
Then she walked into the west room.
The adobe houses in the village are very old, as if they have not been renovated for many years. The old woman's house is the same, but it is better than clean. There is no dust on the floor of the mud house, and the big kang is even more polished.
Sleeping with people is no problem.
But she still had to think about how to sleep with Brother Seventh Emperor.
"I sleep on the floor."
Yun Yanli's voice sounded from behind.
He didn't know when he also entered the room. When he saw Yun Chuyao looking at the kang in a daze, he said, "It's not cold to sleep on the ground anyway."
Yun Chuyao shook his head: "You are also injured. It is easy to catch cold if you sleep on the ground. It is better to sleep on the kang. You sleep here and I sleep over there. They are so far away."
As she said that, she pulled the quilt and prepared to make the bed, but for some reason, her expression suddenly stiffened.
"What's wrong?"
Yun Yanli asked quickly: "Is it pulled on the shoulder? I'll do it."
"……bedding."
Yun Chuyao looked at the quilt intently, with helpless, helpless, overwhelmed, and a trace of despair in her eyes. She said with difficulty: "There is only one set."
After the words fell, Yun Yanli also fell silent.
But fortunately it was summer, when it was hot, even if you didn't cover yourself with a quilt at night, you could still sleep soundly. The two of them each made a mattress and lay down on it.
The sky is getting darker.
Yun Chuyao couldn't tell what time it was now. She only knew that she was very tired. As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell asleep soundly. Faintly, she seemed to hear a "squeaking" sound, but she was too She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes at all. It wasn't until the back of her hand itched, as if something crawled across her hand, that she suddenly opened her eyes!
"squeak!"
A gray-black rat is staring at him!
Under the moonlight, its black bean-like eyes were astonishingly bright, staring at me dimly, as if provoking or testing!
Yun Chuyao's head exploded!
For a moment, she felt that her soul was scared out of her body. She couldn't help but scream, picked up the feather duster at hand, and hit the mouse hard!
"mouse!"
She trembled: "Rat!!!"
Yun Yanli also woke up with a start. When he saw that the commotion was a mouse, he felt relieved and let out a long sigh. Just as he was about to speak, he found that Yun Chuyao's face was pale. He instantly realized that she was afraid of mice and immediately answered. The feather duster in Yun Chuyao's hand was aimed at the rat's head and hit hard!
"boom!"
The rat was crushed.
"It's dead," Yun Yanli threw away the duster and comforted Yun Chuyao, "Don't be afraid, I've beaten it to death."
Not afraid?
Totally impossible!
Yun Chuyao couldn't bear the thought of this rat lying on the bedside and staring at her when she was sleeping. It might even crawl over her face, hands and body, leaving a shuddering itchiness. I couldn't help but shiver, and my hair stood on end!
"No, it's okay."
Yun Chuyao twitched the corners of her lips and tried to calm her voice: "I'm... not afraid."
With just one sentence, she trembled as if a wolf was chasing her.
Yun Yanli looked at Yun Chuyao's face, and then at the mouse lying on the ground. There was a flash of confusion in his eyes. He didn't quite understand how his imperial sister could be afraid of such a little thing, but he also knew that he felt sorry for people. Seeing that Yun Chuyao was really scared, he didn't waste any time. He immediately picked up the mouse and threw it outside.
When he came back, Yun Chuyao's face was still pale, with a hint of shock.
