After Wei Cheng and Qiu Liang finished discussing things in Guo Yan's tent, it was already dark when they came back. Shen Yinxiao had just returned and was soaking the handkerchief in water, wringing it out, and wiping his hands and face.
My whole body was soaked, my legs were sore and limp, I sweated a lot, and I drank several glasses of water as soon as I came back.
"Going out today?" He looked at the girl's flushed face, a thin layer of sweat on her neck, and a few strands of hair stuck to the white and red side of her neck. He strode forward and put his hand into the back of her neck. , look down.
The undershirt was already soaked with sweat.
He frowned: "They didn't hook up the carriage for you? Why are you so sweaty?"
"It's a trap." Knowing that he had misunderstood, she quickly explained: "Brother Chen and the others also sent someone to escort me, they were very considerate."
He was still a little disgusted and scratched her neck, which was covered with sweat.
"Like a wild monkey, there is nothing like a girl's home. Take a hot bath first, otherwise you will have to be hot again tomorrow." After that, he raised his voice and called for someone to boil water and bring it in.
"Yes." She nodded obediently.
"You haven't answered me yet. What are you doing? Huh?" He sat down on the bed and looked at her with interest. This feeling was a bit strange. Wei Cheng had not tasted it before, but today he thought about it. , isn’t this the mentality of raising cats and dogs?
After going out for a day of work, I came back to see what my cat had eaten, drank, and done today, and then teased her and said a few words, and the day passed like this.
Shen Yinxiao was panicked by him and felt guilty for a while. Fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose on her wiped face. She rubbed her nose and avoided his sight.
"I thought I had nothing to do, so I found something to do, and then I ran around the lake."
"Run around the lake?" He raised his eyebrows, thinking he heard wrongly.
"Are you practicing alone?"
Before Shen Yinxiao left today, Wei Ning had already reported her whereabouts to him. He knew about the lake. The camp was stationed within a radius of twenty miles, and there were scouts who had scouted out the terrain in advance. The scenery of the wild lake was indeed good, and she did not lie. Yes, but the lake is at least four miles long. They train and run twenty miles every day. How can she, a girl, run so far?
Seeing his thoughtful expression, she quickly added: "It's not really a run, just a quick walk. I've been bored in the house every day these days, and my legs and feet are no longer flexible. Today, I looked at the beautiful scenery by the lake. I want to move."
"I didn't expect the lake to be so long. It was almost dark before I finished walking." She said sheepishly.
Wei Cheng sneered, and the image of her sitting on the stone, panting and covered in sweat, could already be seen in his mind.
"Is it fun there?" He lowered his head and opened a volume of military literature, slightly twitching the corners of his mouth, and kept chatting.
"It's quite beautiful." She thought for a while, and talked a lot more about the novel things she saw and heard, and her tone was full of interest: "There are many big trees, as thick as two people hugging each other, and the lake is especially beautiful. , like a mirror, like emerald, clear and calm. When the wind blows, the waves sparkle, as if gems are sprinkled on it, and there are many fish in it. I took a look..."
He laughed dumbly: "Shen Yinxiao, where are you writing your travel notes?"
Shen Yinxiao was in high spirits and sat down on the bed next to him. He propped up his chin and looked at him with bright eyes: "Speaking of which, I really want to write a travel diary, describing the places I have visited and the things I have eaten. Write down all the people and scenery you see. If you write well, maybe someone will take notice and print it into a book and sell it to others!"
Seeing that she was in high spirits, he actually felt very lively and interesting. He lowered his head and teased her: "Who will buy the book you wrote?"
Hearing the sarcasm in his words, she curled her lips and said, "Of course someone will buy it."
"How many places have you been to? I'm afraid it only takes a few lines to describe all the places you've been to." He sneered.
Seeing that she was silent, he said leisurely: "If you want to go out to play, you can wait. After the current matters are settled, I will take you out to have some fun."
"Tell me, where do you want to go?"
She couldn't think of anything for a moment, so she said casually: "Chang'an, I heard that it is the most prosperous and prosperous place. Even women's makeup and clothing are the first to be fashionable in Dayin."
Every time there is something new in Youzhou, it comes from Chang'an. Whether it's food, drink, entertainment or other things, it seems that other states and counties are one step slower than Chang'an, and can only follow behind to pick up the rest for the people of Chang'an.
Wei Cheng saw the longing look on her face, sneered, and rubbed her head: "I don't know, I'll take you to play for a few days when the work is over."
I can eat, sleep, and run.
The trace of suspicion just now dissipated, and the hot soup sent from outside was also brought in. She took off her clothes and took a bath behind the screen, while Wei Cheng handled official business outside the screen, and the two of them lived in peace.
Listening to the sound of water rushing in the inner tent, he was in a good mood. When they were on the bed at night, the two of them were at ease with each other, playing the piano and the piano in harmony. After the incident, they closed their eyes and rested with their own thoughts.
The next day, Shen Yinxiao asked Wei Cheng for a small crossbow and two horses, and took Qing Fei to the lake again. This time, Chen Zhao still ordered people to guard him. She first continued to look at the guards strangely. He walked quickly along the lakeside, returned to the starting point, rested for half a stick of incense, waited until the sweat on his body had dried, and then pulled Qing Fei to mount the horse to hunt.
The prey in the mountains are no more docile and clumsy than those raised in the hunting grounds. The wild beasts in the mountains are cunning and cautious, and can run as fast as lightning. She is not discouraged. For several days, she brings Qing Fei here, first running around the lake, and then hunting. .
In the eyes of the guards, these were no different than playing house. Naturally, they didn't think it was anything. They were all used to it. When Shen Yinxiao ran, a group of people followed him at a distance. The distance was neither long nor short. When she hunts, they help her pick up arrows and prey. If she is lucky, she can hunt hares and pheasants.
When Wei Cheng finally got free time, Shen Yinxiao made an appointment with him and took Qing Fei to arrange the venue in advance.
There was no need for any venue, but she was worried that he would ask for too much, so she wanted to make more careful arrangements to avoid getting cold and squeezing him, so she specially brought animal skins, felts and charcoal, as well as good tea and tea sets, and used the grass as a mat. Plug bamboo poles on all sides, then take a few sets of skirts of your own, connect them and hang them on the bamboo poles, and it will be a temporary banquet tent.
This kind of picnic has an elegant and interesting name, it is called skirt feast.
This is something that ladies and gentlemen like to do when they go on an outing. It is held between the two solar terms of "Beginning of Spring" and "Rain" after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. At this time, everything comes to life, and friends meet to accompany them and go on an outing. Comfortable.
It's just that spring has just begun and it's still a bit cold, so she has to bring extra blankets and charcoal fire to keep out the cold.
After the venue is decorated, it can be said to be exquisite and eye-catching.
The hanging skirt rippled in the breeze. The colorful skirts were very bright and beautiful. The animal skins were spread on the ground and surrounded by charcoal fire. The whole body was warm. Wei Cheng was here, even with his picky and venomous temperament. Can't fault anything.
Then he went back to invite him.
