After a blizzard, it cleared up.
Si Xingfu takes a servant to shovel snow, clean the road and roof, Gu Qingzhou wears a thick fur coat, holds a warm hand stove, and supervises the work nearby.
After shoveling snow for a while, he was sweating all over, so he was only wearing a shirt and vest, his sleeves were pulled high, and he worked hard.
The servant is responsible for picking up the snow shoveled by the manager in the backyard.
"Next year should be a good year. The snow is so heavy and cold that the eggs in the ground are frozen to death. " Gu Qingzhou road.
Si Xingfu agreed with this, and then asked with a smile, "Mrs. Si, how do you worry about farming?"
Gu Qingzhou ponders.
The cold wind seeped into her fur, and Gu felt even colder in the boat. He held the stove tightly and said, "I used to think about my little troubles, but now I always think about the sufferings of the people. I don't know why this change happened."
Si Xingfu raised a spade of snow and shed sweat on his cheek: "because he married me."
Gu glanced at him.
"As a wife, I have a sense of responsibility," said the secretary
Gu Qingzhou thought, mostly so.
Seeing the hard work of Si Xingfu, she said, "give the servant a shovel. Don't be tired of you."
"Tired is not bad." Si Xingfu said, "when you rest, your muscles and bones will be dull. It's not time for me to relax. "
He paused, thought on his spade, and said to Gu Qingzhou, "when the future is unified, I will drink and eat meat every day, and develop myself into a fat man of 200 Jin."
Gu Qingzhou thinks about that scene. He is so tall again. It seems that he has a mountain in front of him. He laughs a lot.
"Then, when I go out, I can carry you on my shoulder." He continued.
Gu almost laughed.
"On the left shoulder sat my daughter, and on the right sat my wife, swaggering across the market," he said
Gu chuckled out of breath.
After a while, she stopped laughing and said, "you'd better shovel the snow first. You're the only one who works so hard. Don't want to be fat! "
Si Xingfu leans over to catch a handful of snow and sprinkles it on the front of Gu's light boat.
At the end of the snow drill into her collar.
Gu Qingzhou yells, and rushes to fight Si Xingfu. Si Xingfu rushes away.
The servant saw that two such dignified people were making trouble like two children in the yard.
"Don't move. Let me hit you." Said the wife.
As expected, shizuo stopped.
His wife slapped him on the chest, only to feel a pain.
"I'm sorry, but I have a pocket watch in my coat pocket. Does it hurt?"
Say to want to help wife knead hand.
Two people giggle, the wife is not so cold.
The teacher could see that his wife was standing there, frozen stiff. He had to accompany him, so he deliberately teased her to move.
These two people, love envy others.
"Madam, it's so cold. Would you like to go back to the house? Don't freeze you. "
Gu Qingzhou stood in the snow, which was about to freeze. Now after a fight, it was not so cold, but his feet were still unconscious.
It's numb with cold.
On a snowy day, water drips into ice.
"Go back to the house and get warm"
"I'm not cold," said the secretary Gu Qingzhou road.
"I am obedient," said the secretary
Gu Qingzhou asked him, "do you coax children? Do you think I'm a child? "
Si Xingfu continued to shovel snow, but his voice was too soft: "it's not that I treat you as a child, but that when you are around me, I treat myself as a child. Do you think that's right? "
Gu Qingzhou thought about it, a little shocked.
That's true.
She is usually too tired in front of outsiders. She is very tired whether in calculation or disguise.
She's just a girl of twenty.
So, when she comes to Si Xingfu, she will relax her vigilance, and she will play coquettish. Even when there was no love before, she always cried in front of him.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't like to cry, but he cries like a tearful man in front of the manager again and again.
Perhaps from the time he fed her the first spoon of porridge, her heart Z regarded him as her own dependence.
"Then I'll go back." Gu Qingzhou road.
The soles of his feet were cold, and the temperature of the stove was low. Gu didn't want to be brave.
Once she went back to the house, she felt the warmth of the dragon and sighed comfortably.
The servant brought hot water and washed her hands.
"Bubble feet, ma'am?" The servant asked her.
Gu Qingzhou's toes were frozen stiff, and now he was curled up in his boots.
"Take a dip." Gu Qingzhou road.
She was sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading old books and soaking her feet. When she was warm, the servant helped her clean her feet and put on woollen socks.
Gu thanked the servant and asked, "is he still obedient, son of a dog?"
The servant said, "I'm good! Poor people love noodles. Given him a stuttering, he wished he could give us all his life and look for work everywhere, not afraid of cold and not afraid of fatigue. "
"There are so many poor people that they are dissatisfied even with their strength." Gu Qingzhou feels a little heavy.
The servant said: "it's hard to find a host like you and shizuo in the world. If we are not with the teacher seat, we are also like those people. Alas "
the two people sighed and sighed. They did not interrupt their conversation until Si Xingfu came in.
The servant also rushed to short hot water to wash his hands and face.
He asked them what they had talked about, and Gu told them the truth.
When it comes to Gouzi, Si Xingfu is a little worried and says, "I'm going back to Pingcheng tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Are you sure you want to do it years ago?"
These days, he is not at the side of the boat, afraid to take risks.
But he told the staff that the time was arranged and he could not be absent.
He has not been in Pingcheng recently. The railway in Pingcheng has already been completed. He has conquered several nearby towns and is about to occupy Zhejiang and Anhui.
Pingcheng is subordinate to Yuecheng military government, so the power of Yuecheng military government is expanding.
Si Xingfu and Si dujun, father and son, devour the small warlords around them.
After the death of SIMU and Fangfei, the governor wanted to transfer his inner sorrow, so he became more interested in politics and military affairs, more cunning, sinister and vicious, and countless small warlords were taken by him.
Si Xingqi has a deep friendship with Yunnan. There are ye dujun in the north and the situation is under control.
The unification of the north and the south of the Yangtze River is just around the corner.
"Si Xingfu, we live in such a world, and you have such an identity. If you are unlucky one day, you will be killed by stray bullets.
I avoid risks and put myself in a safe position as much as possible. You said that if there is any accident, it's heaven's turn to take me. I will not die in this accident, but in other accidents. " Gu Qingzhou road.
Si Xingfu is stunned: isn't this his argument?
Gu Qingzhou said again, "Si Xingfu, you are a soldier, and I am the wife of a soldier. We are not absolutely safe in such a turbulent time.
Since both sides are in danger, isn't it more meaningful to get rid of evils and a future and security for more people because of my efforts? "
The manager hugged her.
His cheek is against hers.
He said to her in a low voice, "canoe, you are not the delicate flower I raise. You are a beast as powerful as me. When you act, you have to give 12 points. When you step back, you have to leave 12 points. Always think of me. "
Gu Qingzhou nods.
"But don't try again because of the danger of thunder and lightning like last time," he added
What Gu Qingzhou wants to do this time, there is no great danger, at least everything can be controlled, there is no threat of nature.
Si Xingfu believed in her mind and ability.
"Good." Gu Qingzhou road.
Si Xingfu changes clothes and takes Gu Qingzhou to check the preparations.
After a simple lunch, the two of them had to go out.
Gu Qingzhou replaced a pair of thick deer skin boots and stuffed his feet inside.
He also wrapped a scarf for her, and put on a British lady hat. The edge of the hat is very warm.
Gu Qingzhou didn't like to wear a hat and said, "it has softened my hair."
"Don't make a fool of yourself, or I will crush you."
"Hooligans." Gu Qingzhou mumbles.
So they went out.
They went to a quiet little temple on the outskirts of the city.
There is no incense in the temple for a long time, and the houses are shabby, but they are very busy. It seems that there are many people living in the temple, as well as the sound of playing and singing.
Walking in, you will find that this is a house rented by a theater.
There was no incense in the small temple. The abbot took the monks to other big temples. The guest rooms of the temple were rented out. At the same time, a theatrical troupe had something to do with the abbot and took over at a low price.
As soon as Si Xingfu entered the door, the headmaster greeted him warmly: "young master."
Gu Qingzhou glanced at the eye secretary.
Although his complexion is dark, he exercises all the year round. His skin is tight and his eyes are bright. He is very handsome. He looks like a young man, although he is nearly thirty years old.
He was called a young master, which was accepted by the secretary. Gu Qingzhou was also called "little grandma".
"Is everything ready?" The Secretary asked.
The class leader said, "it's all ready. Come and have a look."
The headmaster took Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpei and went to the backyard.
All the wood in the backyard is spread out and dried one by one.
The wood looked dry outside, but it was heavy in hand. It was soaked in water.
Soak the wood in the sun for a few days. It looks dry on the surface, but it's wet inside. It's heavy and valuable.
"Not bad." "You have to do it for me. Make sure that the wood looks dry and it must be wet inside," he said
"Don't worry, don't ask for your money." Ben main road.
The Secretary nodded.
After seeing the wood in the yard, the class leader took Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingfu to see the people.
There are twelve actors in the troupe, both men and women.
Three men and one woman stand out.
"Hurry up, give the young master a performance." Ben main road.
So a man began to talk. He has a good voice line, which can be thick or thin, so it's no problem to imitate a man in his teens or thirties.
The other two, one can imitate the old, the other can imitate the young.
The last woman, she sang all the Dan roles alone, so the young women and the old women all spoke well.
"What do you think?" Seeing that they have finished their performance, Si Xingfu looks back and asks Gu Qingzhou.
