Chapter 763: Five Kinds of Vegetables for the Deposed Empress in the Cold Palace (5)
Because of the worry about the little brother who ate snow, the delicacies on the banquet suddenly became bland.
Xiao Yuesheng took advantage of no one's attention and wrapped the crystal pork elbow and rose cheese in oil paper one by one.
The way back was harder than expected.
The food box was too heavy for her, and the red velvet hairband tied to the box left a long trail in the snow.
But he still had to stop and go, and it took a lot of effort to get it over there.
pity.
When the food box fell from the wall, most of the porcelain plates inside were broken into pieces.
But the boy was like a hungry wolf cub. He grabbed the piece of meat with porcelain chips on it and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Eat slowly!"
She was so anxious that she tried to pry his hands away, "The porcelain pieces will scratch your throat!"
Xiao Yuesheng took out her handkerchief and wiped his face.
"Isn't there a cooking area in the palace? You can go there to find something to eat instead of eating snow."
The boy suddenly stopped chewing.
"what's your name?"
"Ah Heng!"
Her eyes lit up and she scratched the snow with her fingers, "Hengwu's Heng——"
A crooked "A" appeared on the snow.
The grass radical next to it looks like two little ears.
"This character is too difficult. I can never write it well."
She sighed as she spoke, "Oh, I really wish it was a name like Sister Axue. How simple it is."
The words "Axue" were written on the snow.
The boy was silent for a moment, and suddenly he also drew a few lines on the snow.
The chilblains on his fingertips oozed blood, staining the snow red. "They all call me Wen Yu. I don't even know what the two characters are. Are you happier with this comparison?"
He hadn't met many kind-hearted people, and he didn't know if this could comfort her.
"Oh my God!"
Xiao Yuesheng's eyes widened: "You actually have the same surname as the emperor?"
A small hand suddenly covered his mouth.
"Don't tell anyone! If your name offends the emperor, you will be beheaded!"
Xiao Yuesheng thought about it, and then wrote the two words "既白" neatly on the snow.
"Next time someone asks you your name, just say this. The Master said it means... is..."
She tilted her head and thought for a long time.
"Anyway, it's a very good idea! Mother said that the Master is very knowledgeable and what he said is always right."
The boy stared at the two words and his throat moved.
"it is good."
Xiao Yuesheng smiled happily.
Today I helped someone who was so hungry that he had to eat snow.
If her mother knew, she would definitely praise her.
She's not just good at fighting.
She talked about the tabby cat in the general's mansion, the annoying needlework class, and then from complaining about the strictness of the zither teacher to envying Sister Axue's beautiful handwriting, and finally yawned.
"...Except for my mother, no one is willing to listen to me talk so much...Are you annoyed?"
"It's not annoying."
The boy put his worn cotton jacket over her and said, "People who talk a lot are usually very smart. You are very good, but they just don't understand."
The snow fell silently.
The two children fell asleep leaning against each other.
Until someone bit her hand hard in her dream——
"what!"
She woke up in pain and saw her blood on the boy's lips.
"You ungrateful bastard! I secretly brought you something and you actually bit me?"
Because I was young, I only learned the basics from my father.
Fists rained down on his shoulders, but they were soft and powerless.
The boy loosened his teeth and pointed at the messy food boxes on the ground.
"What you said...is all true?"
Xiao Yuesheng looked at the two rows of bleeding teeth marks on her palm, and pain mixed with grievance instantly exploded. She raised her snow-covered little boots and kicked the boy's legs.
The toes of his boots embroidered with gold thread left mud marks on the boy's worn trouser legs.
She was still not satisfied, so she grabbed a handful of snow and threw it at him.
"You ungrateful bastard! You should have starved to death in the snow long ago!"
"You ungrateful bastard! You scabby dog!"
She was shaking with anger and said whatever came to her mind.
The pearl flowers in her hair trembled with her movements, like a bird with its feathers standing on end.
The young man had just pulled out half of the silver hairpin when he suddenly raised his eyes.
The violent anger in those black eyes frightened her so much that her hand trembled and the hairpin fell into the snow.
"Why are you staring at me?"
She grabbed a ball of snow and threw it around in a cowardly manner, then turned and ran towards the plum tree.
Unexpectedly, the young man caught up with her in two steps and grabbed her by the back of the collar like a chicken.
"Let go! Do you know who my mother is?" She kicked her legs in the air. "The Queen's own sister! I'll kill her entire clan!"
I'm sorry, Sister Xue.
Borrowed from Aunt Tong.
This made the boy tighten his fingers.
He dragged her through the plum trees and into a room filled with firewood and debris.
The smell of mold mixed with blood hit him in the face, and Xiao Yuesheng suddenly sneezed.
"I'll kill you if you make any more noise." The boy's voice was colder than the snow.
She shrank her neck, but her eyes were drawn to the corner.
On the "bed" made of broken wooden boards, there was a half quilt neatly folded.
The quilt cover was patched up, but it turned white after washing.
"You sleep here?"
The boy didn't answer, but took out a chipped porcelain bottle from the crack in the wall: "Put out your hand."
"what?"
"Apply medicine."
The light from the snow leaked in through the broken window, illuminating the cracked wounds on his fingertips.
Xiao Yuesheng suddenly forgot to be angry: "It turns out you are not a bad person!"
She let him apply the medicine on her and nodded in a condescending manner, "It's okay to be a little fierce. My father said that this way no one will bully you."
The powder irritated the wound and made it burn, but she took out the oil paper bag with great interest.
"These are the last two pieces of ice crystal cake. I was going to give them to my mother... but saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!"
"You talk too much." The boy frowned.
"You just said that people who talkative are smart!" She was so angry that she wanted to take back the cake.
"I'm mad, and now there's no ice cream!"
The bandage suddenly tightened, causing her to hiss in pain and tears to fall from her eyes.
It hit the frostbite on the boy's hand unexpectedly.
The boy suddenly froze.
He subconsciously wiped it with his sleeve, but the coarse linen made her cheeks even redder.
The young man lowered his eyelashes and said, "It's okay to be angry. In the palace, sympathy will kill you. It's best to put it away. You are not so lucky every time."
"It's okay to use the title of Queen once, but if you use it too many times and she finds out, you'll die too."
Xiao Yuesheng blinked and suddenly stuffed the pastry into his mouth.
"Are you trying to teach me a lesson? Then I'll treat you to a meal."
The boy's choking expression made her chuckle.
Before leaving, she sat on the wall and swung her legs.
"I can sneak over here. You are so much taller than me and so much stronger. It should be easy for you to sneak into the cooking area, right? Stop eating snow."
The night breeze brought her final instructions.
"Next time I go to the palace, I'll bring you some candied haws. They're ten times more delicious than the snacks in the palace!"
The young man suddenly looked up: "Aren't you from the palace?"
The only answer he received was the sound of snow falling outside the wall.
The young man looked at the empty wall and when he turned to leave, he saw the two words "Axue" written crookedly on the snow, with an ugly plum blossom drawn next to it.
After leaving here, Xiao Yuesheng went back excitedly, ready to tell sister Axue about this magical experience.
As a result, I saw Aunt Tong scolding Sister Axue, saying that she didn't keep an eye on her.
The two are only five months apart in age.
How can you blame her?
Although Xiao Yuesheng stated that it was her own fault and had nothing to do with anyone else, after that day, her relationship with Sister Axue was no longer the same as before.
You have to fight for victory or defeat in everything.
Sister Axue refused to admit defeat, and she didn't admit it either.
……
The scene stopped abruptly.
Song Yuesheng understood.
So that's what happened.
"Sister Yue, Sister Yue, the original owner's memory book has changed. Did you say something again just now?"
Song Yuesheng was stunned for a moment.
The facts preceded her words, and she did not mention anything.
Will [One Word Memory] automatically upgrade?
This is really... not good.
"thump".
The dizziness caused by the high fever finally overwhelmed her.
"Duan Ning!"
