15. Yi Youth

Cardamom has been cooked into porridge

by a

young barbarian. “Mrs. Song’s wonton is very different from others. She is different because she makes it very delicious.”

“But.”

“It’s delicious enough for people to eat 12 bowls at once, which is something that Mrs. Soong has never done in her entire 40-year career.”

“The highest she ever had in a small shop, she only had 11 bowls, and then she left regrettably.”

“And today is the day!”

“It was a day that brought tears to people’s eyes and made them very excited to mistake their parents. It was a day that attracted the attention of millions of people and made them shine in all directions. Today, this record, which has not been broken for 40 years, is finally today.”

“It’s been 41 years.” The little soldier who was

driving the cart sucked the last mouthful of noodles into his mouth, and then solemnly picked up the bowl and “purred” all the sauce left in the bowl into his mouth. Before he could swallow it, he handed the bowl to the boss and said, “One more bowl!”.

The boss said, “It’s not that I won’t sell it to you.” Little brother, you here, here..

“You are eating too much.”

“What if I die in my shop?”

The little soldier wiped his mouth, showing his black teeth stained with fried sauce. As if he could see the boss’s misgivings, he smiled mysteriously at him and said, “Ha ha, boss, don’t worry. It’s all right. We have enough money. We won’t credit you.” With that, he took out a silver ingot from his chest pocket and slapped it on the table. Then he laughed at the boss with black teeth and said, “Look, are these enough?”

“I am not afraid that you will give me credit.”

“I’m afraid you’re coming to kill me.”

Human life is at stake. What is this money in front of life?! Does it matter! Does it matter?

“Does it matter!” Smiling,

the boss opened his mouth and said to the young soldier, “Well, well, please!”! The little one is going to serve you noodles, eat as many bowls as you want, eat as many bowls as you want, don’t stand on ceremony!

“Okay, it’s important.”

“Bah! An unscrupulous boss who only cares about making money and doesn’t care whether people live or die. When a lawsuit comes, we’ll see how you end up. Shame on you! Bah!”. Cao Xiliang, who

was sitting in front of the table eating noodles, turned his head, looked at the corner of the table indifferently, and turned his head back silently.

Shit. What’s the matter with

that man? He looked at me. Did you see me?

“Impossible! Impossible! Don’t say that Lao Tzu is hiding so much, just say that Lao Tzu is speaking in the Yi language. Even if this big idiot hears it, he can’t ***ing understand it.”

Tsao Hsi-liang turned his face and looked very seriously at the sundries in the corner of the table. “My name is not Big Idiot,” he said. “My name is Tsao Hsi-liang.”

“Mind your own business is really the fine traditional virtue of the Dacheng people, but unfortunately I don’t have it.”

This sentence has been thought by Cao Xiliang this morning, whenever he looks back and sees that the teenager is still following behind him, he will think again.

“You can really go.” He said to the boy calmly.

The boy shook his head pitifully and looked at him pitifully.

“I’ll tell you what.” He sighed and said, “Whether you want money or anything else, I can give it to you.”

The boy shook his head again pitifully and continued to look at him pitifully.

So what exactly are you going to do? I’ll give you half a stick of incense. If you don’t say anything, I’ll write to the chief of the barbarians and take you back to the barbarians.

No, no, no, Daxia! Daxia, I was wrong! I’m sorry. I.. All right, I’m an escaped slave, and the law is to be skinned and executed. You mustn’t go to the chief!

Tsao Hsi-liang looked at the pitiful young man on his sleeve and laughed. “Are you going or not?” He asked.

The boy grabbed him by the sleeve and said pitifully, “No …” It’s not that I want to follow you, it’s that I’ve been here alone for a long time, from … No one ever understands what I’m saying, and if you do, no.. Why don’t you help me, help me find out where my home is..

Now Tsao Hsi-liang was both angry and amused: “You don’t even know where your own home is. How can I know?”! I’m not being nosy! Two lines of tears slipped out of

the young man’s eyes and scattered in the wind. As the saying goes, a man does not shed tears easily. He must still be a young man, not a man. The young man cried bitterly. Those who heard it were sad, and those who saw it were irritable. Tears and snot flowed out together, so that the whole face could not see the nose and eyes clearly.

Cao Xiliang held his forehead and said, “Brother, to tell you the truth, my brother was one of the generals who attacked the barbarians in the first place. If you say who you can ask for help, why do you ask me?”

The boy stopped crying and said, “Do you think I want to? I’ve been here for a few months, and even if I get the money, no one understands what I’m saying. You people in the Central Plains have a lot of swindlers, and you’ve been swindled all at once. Pity me for wandering for so long, but you’re the only one who can understand what I’m saying.”. Whoo, whoo.. Anyway

, I escaped from the barbarians. As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. So, whoever you are, I’m with you.

Cao Xiliang felt a headache.

When he was still young, his father, General Cao Lao, carried him on his shoulders to join the army of the barbarians. I have lived in Yi for several years

since I was a child, and I am no stranger to Yi language.

Tsao Hsi-liang said to him kindly, “My friend, if you stay here for a few more months, are you still afraid of more time? It’s not that my brother won’t help you. My brother killed so many barbarians. You’re not afraid I’ll kill you, but I’m afraid you’ll kill me.”

The boy looked at him with tears in his eyes. “Are you really so cruel?”

Tsao Hsi-liang nodded: “Really.”

The boy wiped away his tears and said, “There is absolutely no room for manoeuvre.”

Tsao Hsi-liang nodded. “Absolutely not.”

Never two words can be a mouth, only to hear the plop of life, the young man fell to his knees with lightning speed, with the momentum of the bell ringing, until the dust was flying.

… Then he threw his arms around Tsao Hsi-liang’s thighs and cried in stiff Chinese,

“Fickle lover!”! One. After the one-night stand, you don’t admit it! I abandoned my wife and son just to be with you, you! But you!

The boy seemed to have no flesh, and as soon as he shouted, the sound was like a loud bell, and all of a sudden he roared and howled in the street. Passers-by passed by pointing and pointing, and Tsao Hsi-liang gritted his teeth and said, “Get up.” Holding his leg in his arms, the

boy continued to cry stiffly, “You swore to me that night that you would never marry again, but now you do!”! But.. In the middle of the conversation, he began to cry.

Tsao Hsi-liang laughed back angrily and said, “I think you speak Chinese very well. You don’t need to come with me.” In the street,

the down-and-out and comely young man ignored the eyes of the common people and wept bitterly for love. It was really very sad. Pedestrians stopped by the roadside one after another, and some young girls in love could not help wiping away their tears. The fat aunt selling steamed buns on the street, while holding back her tears, wrapped a few steamed buns and stuffed them into the young man’s hands. At the same time, she glared at Cao Xiliang viciously and said, “My child, it’s all right.” Rich people just don’t have a good thing! There is no obstacle that cannot be overcome. Eat more, drink more, and don’t take anything to heart. Eat some of your aunt’s steamed stuffed buns, and come back if you don’t have enough.

The boy was crying loudly, and the fat aunt’s eyes were filled with tears. From the street side came a few words of discussion in a very low voice: “What’s going on?” “I heard it was this big guy who gave up at the beginning.” “Tsk, tsk, look at all the people dressed like dogs. This rich man really doesn’t have a good thing!” Yes, yes! I hear he’s not only cruel to this young man, he’s going to divorce his wife!

“Excuse me, excuse me, I’m late. What just happened here?” “Here’s this man on the street. I heard he’s going to divorce his pregnant wife, and he’s still tangling with this young man on the ground!” What?! He wants to divorce his virtuous wife, who was eight months pregnant when he had no money, and to get entangled with all the brothers and sisters of this young man on the ground and even his 80-year-old wife?! What?! Not only does he want to divorce his wife, who he married at a time when he had no money, and who is eight months pregnant, industrious, kind, and loyal, but he is also entangled with the young man’s brothers and sisters, and even his 80-year-old wife, his 90-year-old wife, and his 100-year-old grandfather, who is about to die. What?! Is he a eunuch?!!

Cao Xiliang: “… …”

Cao Xiliang: … All right, stop kneeling and go. The

boy kneeling on the ground wiped his tears in tears, stood up in tears, grabbed Cao Xiliang’s sleeve, and refused to separate.

Well, what kind of thing is this.

In late autumn, it is easy to get frost in the morning, but before sunrise, it is exceptionally cold. Fog falls layer by layer, and the palace in front of us is covered by mist, just like the “dancing gauze” of singers that we saw in front of the palace the Lantern Festival last year. Like clouds, the grass and trees in the courtyard are covered with a faint layer of white.

Yang Guiren gathered his eyebrows and stood outside the main hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a long time. The

cold and heavy air rushed down from the top of her head, and a layer of fine drops of water flew over her eyebrows.

The little maid of honor, Lotus, hesitated behind her, and finally said timidly, “Miss …” You have been waiting from last night to this morning, the emperor must have something to catch up with, otherwise … Let’s go back to the palace and have a rest.

… Can wait from last night to this morning, the emperor is stuck, it is estimated that even summoned her do not remember.

Yang Shu-yu breathed softly, and a mass of hot air, like a thick fog, poured into the air and threw itself on her frozen face. Her cheeks, which had been frozen into ice cubes, seemed to wake up. She blinked her eyelashes slowly and said, “It’s all right. The emperor must be too busy. Let’s go back.”

The master and servant moved their hands and feet in the same place, then helped each other to move slowly back through the corridor to the stone stairs. “Your Majesty is really right,” said the Lotus. “Since the young lady entered the palace, she has never been lucky. It was not easy to summon her once, but she was allowed to stand outside all night. It would be better not to call.”

Yang Shu-yu corrected her, saying, “If you go to the palace, you’ll have to call me Little Master. If you can’t change, I won’t be able to save you if you’re beaten next time.” The

lotus flower nodded and said solemnly, “I know, miss.” Without waiting for Yang Shuyu to finish rolling his eyes, he suddenly grasped Yang Shuyu’s hand and whispered, “Hey, hey, miss, look, is that the empress standing over there?”

Yang Shuyu was stunned and looked up at the front. Under

the frosty eaves, a figure stood in the distance, and in the hazy imperial city, the pale gold and red skirt was particularly conspicuous. It was a bit bleak

in the cold air.

The queen stood in front of the stone railing, followed only by a maid of honor, not knowing what she was looking at.

The Lotus asked the fish in a low voice, “Little Lord, what do you think the empress is doing standing up?”

Yang comb fish with index finger gently on the lips, motioned to the lotus not to speak, the master and servant moved to the inside of the beam, by the broad beam to block their own.

Yang Shuyu poked his head out and looked out quietly.

The queen stood under the eaves, looking at the stone railing, and did not move for a long time.

… No wonder the queen couldn’t sleep and stood in the palace corridor in a trance.

Since a few months ago, when he came back from the south of the Yangtze River and heard that Concubine Kou had died of acute illness, the emperor had never summoned any concubine.

Including the queen.

The emperor ascended the throne for three years without a child. Before that, Chungui was pregnant with a child, but he was red again. So far, his body has not healed. But the harem beautiful woman three thousand, originally rarely can see the emperor one side, along with the Kou imperial concubine died, became more difficult.

Even. Uh.

It can be said that there is no harvest.

Yang comb fish secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her family background is simple, but her parents love each other, and there is no concubine, can not get used to this kind of sister group life. But the queen’s situation, the heart is still sympathetic. When

he first entered the palace, he knew nothing about the court. His father was only a minor official. He was not even qualified to go to court. He had never seen the emperor, so he was inexplicably elected as a concubine.

Even on the eve of entering the palace, he was frightened to cry. Still anxious father stammered: “Silly girl, you …” You. This one has never seen the world, no.. Not promising!

Later, the empress, who was also the queen, gently picked herself up in front of the palace and said,

“If you need anything in the future, just come to this palace.”

Yang Shuyu’s eyes sparkled with tears and nodded his head into a double image. After

entering the palace, only Kou imperial concubine was favored, although in detail, Kou imperial concubine really did not have any action to compete for favor, but the other imperial concubines still had no chance to see Tianyan, left and right, after entering the palace, the most time spent with the emperor was to attend the palace banquet, and eat with him far away.

The other imperial concubines racked their brains every day, either meeting the emperor by chance Imperial Garden, or accidentally throwing the kite in front of the emperor, today you tie a swing skirt in the palace, tomorrow I can play the piano and sing at the gate of the palace.

Only the queen never seems to be in a hurry. She was not in a hurry when the

other concubines were looking for her to cry. He was not in a hurry when he was told by the princes that he had nothing to do.

Only to hear the news of the death of Kou Fei, the first time to see the queen shook God.

Others heard in the crocodile tears, only the queen, looking at the green window paper, not a hair.

Wait until the next day, as if nothing had happened.

I remember that in the winter of the year when I first entered the palace, I came to pay my respects to the queen. The queen left her to drink tea and enjoy the snow in the palace. She used a small clay pot to boil tea in it.

Outside the window, the snowflakes were falling all over the sky, which reflected the rosy clouds in the windows of the palace.

The empress was sitting at the window reading a biography when Father Fu came in, saluted and told the empress that the emperor could not come today and let the empress have dinner by herself.

The empress didn’t seem to be surprised at all. She asked someone to bring up the prepared dishes. She smiled gently at Yang Shuyu and said,

“That’s all right. Let’s have dinner together and talk. Last time you said you had a famous snack in your hometown, just tell me in detail. We’ll develop it together tomorrow.”. How is it?

Yang Shu-yu asked stupidly, “Empress, the emperor is not coming again today. Aren’t you angry?”

The empress smiled and said, “The emperor has his own arrangements. What is there to be angry about in this palace?”

The queen is as gentle as my sister.

Just, do not know why, at this moment of the queen, why in this palace morning, standing here without saying a word? What the hell is

she looking at?

The wind whirled from the north, stirring up a clear ring of hairpins, and the queen was alarmed and raised her head slightly. Lianyun bun seemed to tremble, driving the phoenix hairpin on the top of the head to make more and more sounds. It was particularly harsh

in the silent palace.

Yang comb fish heart shouted a mother, pulled the lotus immediately to the inside of the pillar and moved, the heart begged grandpa to tell grandma, only hate mom and dad gave birth to two more nostrils, afraid to breathe out to expose their identity.

The queen’s maid, Laurel, seemed to whisper something, but she was too far away to hear what she was saying.

Then there seemed to be a gentle sigh in the air, and a sound of tiny footsteps, from near to far.

The queen is gone.

Yang Shuyu stretched out his head and looked around to make sure that there was no one outside. Then he crept up to the railing where the queen had just stood. Put out half of his head and look down along the queen’s line of sight. In

the cold palace city, the fog has slowly dissipated, through the mist, you can see the palace, in addition to the guards, almost no one.

Everywhere is quiet and uninhabited.

Only as far as the gate of the palace.

A man wearing armor and hair was about to leave the palace.

small soldiers Yu Zha felt that his general, since he took this young barbarian back to the house, his brain seemed to be.

There’s something wrong.

These problems include, but are not limited to, frequent loss of emotional control, frequent loss of emotional control, and frequent loss of emotional control. It is said that

this young man knew nothing but barbarian language, except that he had lived in a theater before and had secretly learned a few words of Zhongyuan in “The Beautiful Enemies Crying for Lovers in a Thousand Miles”.

So in addition to that day in the street holding the general’s thigh that few words, usually he said something, in the check and do not understand, but sometimes standing aside, see the man with a smile to say something, it seems that the attitude is still very kind, the general suddenly began.. Go crazy.

Like right now.

When Yu Zha was standing outside the general’s room and falling asleep, there was a sudden thunder in the room, followed by a roar from the general, who was usually unsmiling, which almost raised the roof: “I beep-are you ***ing human?”! I eat with you! I take a shower and you follow me! Beep! Would you like me to take a dump and watch it too? There was

a shrill roar, which really tore the night apart. The small soldiers stationed at the gate could not help but shiver. Before they could enter the gate to check the situation, there was a silence in the gate for a second or two, and a more irascible cry came out from inside: “What is the capital of the barbarians?”! This! Like! When I’ve never been to the barbarians! Even if you leave the barbarians, you are a change! State!!! This time,

Yu Cha’s shiver touched the Heavenly Spirit Cover from the soles of his feet. He moved shakily to the door, knocked on the door carefully, and said, “Will..” General, you.. You. Are you all right.. The

door was silent for a second, and then came Tsao Hsi-liang’s tired voice: “It’s all right.”

Yu Cha gave a careful “oh,” but before he could, he handed over two warm words of concern. The situation inside the door seemed to have changed again. General Cao, who was invincible on the battlefield, hurriedly said inside, “Hey, hey, hey, what’s going on? Why are you crying? You are still wronged. I said you are not a person. I am not scolding you. It is a fact. Are you still crying? Doesn’t a grown man feel ashamed?

“All right, all right, I was wrong, all right. Don’t cry, old man. Stop crying. All right, no old man, no. Brother, can you stop picking on my words?”

“Forget it. If I can’t be provoked, I can’t hide. You can just cry here slowly. I’ll leave first.” At the end of the

conversation, I heard a clanging sound inside, and Yu Zha put his ear close to the door, trying to listen more carefully. There was a loud clang at the door. General Cao,

who was invincible on the battlefield, was wearing a coat, his clothes were disheveled, and his chest was half-naked and rushed out of it.

… It seems that the complexion is still very ruddy.

Yu Zha swallowed a mouthful of saliva, carefully stretched his head in, and took his eyes into the bathroom

-in the empty bathroom, only the Yi teenager, with a face of enjoyment, soaked in the bathtub.

Yu Zha swallowed the saliva again and put his head out carefully. In the

dark night, there was a cool breeze.

Uh Time to find a woman for the general.

The boy said, “Actually, you lied to me, didn’t you?”? You are not a general. You should be the emperor’s gigolo.

Cao Xiliang leaned against the railing of the restaurant, spat out a piece of grass in his mouth, and did not speak lazily.

The boy went on to say, “I’ve been following you these days, and I haven’t seen you training and fighting every day. You’re either wandering around or drinking flower wine. This isn’t like what a general should do. No, even a gigolo should keep himself like a jade. Why are you still drinking flower wine?”

Cao Xiliang took a flagon in front of him, poured a glass of wine into the glass, and glanced at him lazily.

Seeing that he did not deny it, the young man twisted his eyebrows into a rope and preached to him in all earnestness, “Brother White Face, even if you go astray for a while, the good way is to lay down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha.”. Now you should take advantage of your good environment and work hard to achieve that career. With your connections, isn’t it easy to do something?

Tsao Hsi-liang drank the wine from his cup and said, Oh? If you say so, you must have accomplished a great deal before you lost your memory, and you will be remembered in history. “That’s what I thought,” said the

young man. “I thought I was handsome, handsome, romantic, and at least a champion. Unfortunately, I was reduced to forgetting who I was. I was forced to go to the hotel with you here. If I had remembered, I might be receiving royal incense now.”

Cao Xiliang: “..” Suddenly there was a slight noise

downstairs, and two middle-aged men with crowns and swords came upstairs. The boy upstairs quickly and warmly greeted him. One of them, with a slightly darker face, said, “Why is there no wing room today?” With a smile on his face,

the boy said, “Unfortunately, the wing is already full today. If I had made a reservation earlier, I would have left a room for you next time.”

The one with a slightly darker face gave a snort and looked rather discontented, while the one with a pale face next to him looked amiable. He put out his hand to stop him, smiled at the young fellow, and said, “Then please arrange for us to sit in a more secluded guest seat.”

The boy nodded his head and said, “All right, sir, I understand.”. The little one understands. They led the way to a screen behind Tsao Hsi-liang’s table, only to hear the sound of a cloth flapping on the stool. Then a voice with a black face called out: “All right, it’s all right. You can step down. The food and wine will be served as usual.”

The boy answered one by one and hurriedly turned out of the screen and went straight downstairs.

The boy said curiously, “Eh?”? I clearly saw just now that the wing was still empty. Why is this boy lying here without making any money?

Cao Xiliang glanced at him lightly and did not speak. Behind the

screen, however, the two men often started gossiping, saying nothing more than gossip, such as how my brother is recently, how I am, how you are, how I am, how I am, how you are, and so on. “Didn’t they speak before they entered the shop?” Asked the

boy? Why did you only start talking about this after you got into the store? Just look at your complexion and you’ll see. You still need to be so wordy.

Cao Xiliang glanced at him again, but still did not speak.

The boy came up with the food and wine, and added it to the back of the screen. “You’re no longer needed here,” the black-faced man said in a gruff voice. “Go down.” Small fellow even claimed to be, and hurriedly back out.

There was a clink in the glass, and then there was the sound of pouring wine. The black-faced one lowered his voice and said, “Have you finished the last time?” “Naturally,” said the

pale one. “Then I’m relieved,” said

the black-faced man.

Then the two of them began to chat about their daily life, eating and drinking. It was very lively. Tsao Hsi-liang stood up lazily from the guest seat, went down the stairs on the other side of the stairs, went straight to the counter, and threw out an ingot of silver. He said lazily,

“My friends have something to do today, so they can’t come. I’ll pay for the room, and there’s no need to serve food and wine.”

The shopkeeper took the silver and said, “If you want to have a banquet next time, just let me know. The shop will keep all the rooms. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied!”

Tsao Hsi-liang waved his hand and turned to walk toward the gate. The boy followed him step by step, whispering, “Damn it, you’ve booked all the rooms upstairs. Why haven’t I heard that you’re going to invite guests to dinner these days? You’re just a dog in the manger.”

Tsao Hsi-liang continued on his way with the grass in his mouth, but the young man kept up with him and said, “Did you do it on purpose?”? As soon as you went upstairs, you asked the waiter to give you a seat in that place, just to eavesdrop?

“Wow, then you really have a bad taste. There are only two uncles there, and what they say is all gossip. I didn’t expect you to have such a hobby. Tut, tut, tut. No wonder you don’t marry a wife, and you don’t drink flower wine, and you don’t order girls. You like uncles. This taste is really strange. Hey, I say, I think you’re still good..”

“Boom!”

There was a loud bang.

One hand strongly supported the board behind the teenager.

Tsao Hsi-liang raised his head slightly and fixed his long, narrow eyes on the young man. “If you keep talking,” he said

, “I’ll cut you down.”
