Chapter 171 Seeds of Rebellion
Liu Ji heard the noise and hurriedly walked out of the room wearing a thick coat. When he saw the dark hill, he was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Qin Yao had stayed up all night and was in high spirits and not sleepy at all. She raised her chin at Liu Ji and said,
“Come and clean up, I'll go change clothes, you hitch up the carriage, load the hare and deer into the carriage, and come with me to the Ding family's old house later.”
Ding Xiang said that her grandmother only liked scholars and disliked talking to peasant women in the village.
Liu Ji, a handsome, young and "motivated" scholar, can speak well.
Liu Ji yawned and responded. Seeing Qin Yao enter the bedroom, he asked diligently: "Would you like some hot water to wash it off?"
“Wash.” The words are concise and concise.
After finishing these things, the sound of cleaning was heard from the shower room. Liu Ji seized the time and made a breakfast quickly.
To avoid making the carriage dirty, I first put a layer of straw inside the carriage before putting the prey that I was going to take to Ding's house.
Ding Xiang had fattened up his courage a long time ago and ran to the door to see the deer Qin Yao had shot.
She asked someone to go to Shopkeeper Wu's house to inform Qin Yao two days ago about her grandmother's lack of knee pads. She didn't expect that she would have all the ingredients today.
Had Ding Xiang not revealed in time that there were scholars in Mrs. Qin's family, the old lady would not have said she would think about it again. When Ding Xiang saw his grandmother's attitude, he didn't dare to mention the various remarks he had prepared, such as Qin Yao being a heroine who suppressed bandits.
Old Mrs. Ding looked at her granddaughter curiously for a while, probably because she didn't expect that she would actually intercede for a village woman who was neither a relative nor an acquaintance.
When he was clearing away the dishes after breakfast, Liu Ji finally dared to straighten his back.
After saying that, regardless of the two people pouting in disappointment, they pushed the people into the main room and closed the door.
The road surface was penetrated by melted snow, and the heavy carriage rolled over, leaving a deep rut mark.
They are only six years apart in age. Ding Xiang refuses to call Qin Yao Master, nor does he want to call her Qin Lady according to Liu Ji's seniority.
Si Niang grabbed the corner of A Niang's clothes and said coquettishly, "Si Niang wants to go too."
The door was closed, Qin Yao got on the carriage, got into the carriage and sat down. Liu Ji jumped on the shaft, flicked the reins, and Lao Huang started to move, pulling the two of them off.
Now Ding Xiang can stay alone in her own home because her father and brother love her and favor her.
“It would be great if you could take me into the mountains together some time.” Ding Xiang sighed longingly after putting down the car curtain.
As soon as Qin Yao explained her interests to Ding Xiang, the girl immediately sighed, "Then I wish you good luck."
But the seeds of rebellion have already been sown. Ding Xiang raised his eyebrows arrogantly at Qin Yao,
The whole Dingjiazhuang had long known about Ding Xiang learning riding and shooting. The old lady was very unhappy about this. When Ding Xiang said that this village woman was none other than Mrs. Qin, she became very angry.
Dalang and Erlang suddenly guessed something, and their eyes lit up.
When Ding Xiang saw the mountain deer with black holes in his eyes, he glanced at Qin Yao in surprise and fell to the ground in admiration.
Saburo also said, "Okay."
Liu Ji: So hasty?
But secretly I breathed a sigh of relief. Living cautiously and living upright are two completely different concepts.
As soon as she shouted, Sanlang, a follower, also joined her. Qin Yao nodded their foreheads in a funny way and refused very decisively, "No."
Her mother passed away before the new mistress came in. According to etiquette, she should have been educated by the female elders of the clan, her grandmother or her aunt.
The wild goat seemed to have woken up. Liu Ji thought that he could eat fresh meat during the New Year, so he picked it up, tied it to the stable, stuffed it with a handful of grass, and counted every extra day it could live.
At this moment, he saw Liu Ji smiling at him and holding his fists, reluctantly twitching the corners of his mouth in response, and then asked Qin Yao to open the car curtain to let her see the mountain deer.
Anyway, if she gets the chance to meet, her mission will be completed.
As for the time wasted writing letters back and forth, you can ignore it for now. She lied first and said that her father agreed, and then she would behead him first and then beat him.
Because he was shot through both eyes with an arrow, the fur on his body was not damaged at all, and it was not even stained with blood. It was extremely well preserved.
Saburo licked the corner of his mouth. Every time A Niang went to town or entered the county, there would be a lot of delicious food when she came back.
Fortunately, the thing he was pulling was not heavy and Lao Huang was a little slower, so the journey was smooth.
Just saying this, when Qin Yao came to the door, she almost laughed to her ears.
So we can only hunt some small animals. We have never seen big ones like mountain deer, so we naturally yearn for them.
Ding Shi was not at home. He and his housekeeper had gone into the city early in the morning, bringing New Year's gifts to each family.
I didn't have time to make the dough before putting the pancakes on, so I put all the leftover vegetables from yesterday together with the rice, covered the pot and simmered it.
She classified Qin Yao as the elder sister among the sisters, and she had a clear understanding of Liu Ji's situation in the academy.
Si Niang could only murmur: "Okay~"
“If grandma doesn't agree to let your eldest son, Erlang, go to school, I will write to my father and promise to let them go to school!”
Liu Ji: “Yes!”
Just two bars of soap, she is already very interesting!
Go first into the main room to add charcoal to the fire that was buried last night, put the kettle away, and then come to collect the prey in the yard.
Ding Xiang kept two of the four bars of soap she sent last time, and gave the remaining two to his grandmother. By the way, he mentioned that Qin Yao's children were preparing to go to school.
Lao Huang didn't like this new roommate and stuck his hooves angrily. Liu Ji quickly led him out and pulled out the carriage in the backyard and put it on.
After all, he is just a grandson in front of the old lady, so he must be treated with filial piety and unconditional obedience.
“You really went into the mountains to skin deer for my grandmother?” Ding Xiang was happy that Qin Yao came to find him, but he was also surprised that she was so fast.
It's been so long since I've had good food. The stewed rice this morning made Qin Yao fall in love with Liu Ji again.
Qin Yao walked out of the shower room after washing up and passed by the kitchen, feeling dizzy with the fragrance!
Qin Yao nodded and did not say that she was going to Ding's house. She was afraid that if the agreement did not work out, the children's expectations would be disappointed. She just said that she was going to visit friends.
But now Mr. Ding is in the capital, and if Ding Xiang is caught making a big mistake, Qin Yao feels that Ding Shi, his brother, can't stop the old lady at all.
Unfortunately, there is a rope called "Li" outside the body that binds her and pulls her soul back.
Hearing these words, Qin Yao felt warm in her heart, but said in a serious tone: "You have helped me enough, and I can do the rest myself. If the old lady finds out, your good days will come to an end."
Qin Yao looked at her eyes that were getting brighter and brighter. They were full of yearning for freedom, so strong that she seemed to break free from her body and fly to the vast mountains to explore and adventure.
Ding Shi said that Fan Xiucai was not a good person. Ding Xiang was secretly angry with Qin Yao and Liu Ji for a long time.
She occasionally sneaks into the mountains, but she can only hang around the outside. She has to retreat when people come, not daring to be discovered.
Seeing Liu Ji sitting on the carriage shaft, he was startled and looked at Qin Yao, as if asking: Is your husband alive?
Qin Yao nodded lightly, showing a helpless expression.
When the couple arrived in Jinshi Town, it was just when the Ding family was having breakfast and resting. When Qin Yao passed by Master Ding's house, he knocked on the door and met Miss Ding.
Qin Yao informed the four brothers and sisters of Dalang that she and Liu Ji were going out. Erlang rolled his eyes and asked tentatively:
“Are you going to town?”
Qin Yao smiled confidently and took out a bamboo dragonfly like a magic trick and handed it to Ding Xiang. "It's cold outside. Come in quickly. Let's go."
Sure enough, he was still a child. When he got the toy, his happiness showed on his face. Ding Xiang nodded heavily: "Yeah!"
