On the morning of early summer, the breeze was blowing and it was cool.
He Xiner was wearing a fully embroidered cherry blossom-colored silk skirt, holding a large lantern in her hand, and stood obediently inside the side door.
At this time, the remaining stars in the sky were dim, mist filled the sky, and the orange-red light only dimmed a small area of the sky and earth.
Fortunately, each coachman held a big torch in his hand, which illuminated the inside and outside of the side door as bright as day.
, the family's mule carts are used every day in the big house and cannot be turned over. The three mule carts are all rented from the cart shop. Ye Shitian and Ye Mancang took the lead and escorted the first mule cart;
Zhang Tieniu was in the second cart, Ye Laiyin, Lao Yetou, and Wang's mother and daughter said goodbye one by one, and got on the third mule cart.
He Xiner tilted her head and looked at her cousin who was talking to her uncle in a smart suit. The other person seemed to be aware of this and turned around and walked over.
The little girl walked over with her feet on her feet, looked around, and whispered, "Brother, you don't want to go to Fucheng anymore, do you? My uncle will be angry."
Ye Xusheng chuckled, "Don't worry, Xin'er, I made an agreement with dad."
"Well then, cousin, have a nice trip."
She raised her pretty face and smiled sweetly.
Ye Xusheng's eyes were as clear as water and he looked at her softly, "Does Xin'er want anything? Brother will bring it back to you."
"Um--"
He Xiner spoke in a long tone, looking thoughtful.
The bright white face looks even more delicate and pink under the dim light;
The beautiful almond eyes are sparkling and extremely beautiful;
The girl in her golden years is charming, naive, pretty and smart...
Ye Xusheng felt soft in his heart.
"Well, if there are any particularly rare toys, my cousin will bring a few back to have a look."
The sound of clicking became farther and farther away, and became smaller and smaller. He Xiner pursed her lips and smiled mischievously.
The little girl wants to tease him.
Ye Xusheng likes to see her, both cute and naughty.
"Brother, remember, be good at home and take Dabai with you wherever you go."
"knew."
He Xiner responded crisply, then listened attentively.
"After such a short time, the mule cart will be far away. Cousin, don't delay any more and go quickly."
"wait me back."
"Um."
He Xiner looked at the quick cousin with a funny look, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, thinking that the cousin was getting faster and faster.
At this time, Lao Yetou and Ye Laijin had returned to the upper room early. Mrs. Wang went to pour water on the bean sprouts. Dabai was still at Guan's house with Cuizhi and others. Only Mrs. Cao was waiting to close the door with a lantern.
Seeing that everyone had gone away, He Xiner stretched her neck and kept watching, then she smiled and said, "The relationship between the second lady and the young master is really good, it's no worse than that of the brother and sister."
He Xiner turned around and smiled sweetly, "My cousin and brother are not bad either."
Ms. Cao nodded her head and said yes, and said, "It's still early, so the second girl will go back to sleep to recuperate."
Looking up at the sky and looking at Mrs. Cao closing the door, He Xiner thought for a moment, "I'm not sleepy now, I'll go make some noodles and fry you dough sticks later."
Her father was not at home, so the job of delivering food fell to her uncle, who had to advance the delivery time and take his little cousin to the town again when he came back.
It's rare to get up early so I can't catch up on my sleep, so why not take advantage of the time and make something that my uncle likes to eat.
She can't help with other things, but she can still cook.
Well, just do it.
He Xiner was very busy looking for an apron, purifying water, and kneading noodles.
Mrs. Cao added some hard firewood to the stove, went to wash the water, and came to help.
"My little cousin and Dabai haven't eaten cat ears for a long time. I guess they miss it. Aunt Cao will get some white sugar and brown sugar and help me mix the noodles."
"Eh."
"Yesterday, my cousin mentioned that she hadn't made a cake for a long time, and she told Dabai that she wanted to eat it."
He Xiner couldn't help laughing, "My little cousin Xiang Lai and Da Bai are in the same group..."
Mrs. Cao also laughed.
Thinking of something, He Xiner raised her head and asked, "My grandma and sister-in-law haven't lost their temper in the past two days?"
"No, I didn't curse either."
He Xiner nodded, thinking that the two of them had suffered enough this time, and it would be great if they could change their tempers.
Alas, I will send some fried dough sticks to express my condolences later.
