When his brother was in trouble, Teacher Rong Shen showed his spirit of respecting the elderly and loving the young. Relying on his strong body as a pirate leader, he trotted all the way to carry Sheng Zhixing up to Lishan.
Rongsheng was practically paralyzed from carrying the heavy load and worrying about bumping the old man. Just as he was catching his breath, Yin Zhen poked her head out of the kitchen and said, "I've tried making sweet-scented osmanthus dumplings. Does anyone want to try them?"
"If it tastes good, I'll fry some more tonight."
When Sheng Zhixing heard about Yuanxiao with sweet osmanthus flavor, his eyes lit up. It had been a long time since he had eaten Yuanxiao during the holidays at home. He was busy on missions, and every time he ate Yuanxiao outside, they were all messed up. He missed the taste of the sweet osmanthus Yuanxiao freshly out of the pot very much!
The exhausted Rong Shen saw Sheng Zhixing, who had been shouting about leg pain all morning, smelling the fragrance of osmanthus and Yuanxiao wafting from the kitchen, and rushed into the kitchen at a brisk pace!
Rong Shen: ???
He looked suspicious: "Brother Sheng, you had leg pain this morning, you were lying to me, weren't you? Did you want me to carry you up the mountain because you didn't want to climb?"
But when Sheng Zhixing said his legs hurt, it didn't seem like he was pretending at all! Then he realized that this guy was a professional at disguising himself!
Sheng Zhixing, who had just taken a bite of a Yuanxiao (Chinese dumpling), looked incredibly happy. He paused after hearing Rong Shen's words. "Hey, don't say that! You really shouldn't say that! The environment on this mountain in Lili is just wonderful. It's so refreshing!"
"My legs stopped hurting immediately after arriving at Lishan!"
Rong Shen is not a fool. He can tell at a glance whether the students in the class are lying about being sick or just pretending to be sick. How could he not see Sheng Zhixing's condition at this moment?
Rong Shen was furious. He was still worried and upset when he heard that Sheng Zhixing, who was always strong, suddenly had a leg pain. But Sheng Zhixing was just pretending: "Old Sheng, you are bullying an honest man!"
When he was in high school, Sheng Zhixing sat behind him and often played tricks on him. He thought that this guy had become more stable after working, but it turned out that one's nature is difficult to change!
After saying that, he rushed over, picked up Sheng Zhixing and ran out of the house.
"Hey, what are you doing? Respect the elderly and love the young, don't you understand?"
Sheng Zhixing wanted to break free from Rong Shen, but was afraid that the Yuanxiao in his hand would fall, so he was carried out by Rong Shen.
After Rong Shen carried Sheng Zhixing out, he quickly put him down, then rushed back into the house at lightning speed and closed the door.
Sheng Zhixing knocked hard on the door, Yuanxiao still in his mouth: "Open the door, Shen, it's time to eat. Elderly people who don't eat breakfast are prone to hypoglycemia!"
——"I don't care whether you have low blood sugar or not. I only know that you've made me have high blood pressure because of you!"
Rong Shen pressed against the door and shouted, "Officer Sheng, you're committing fraud and fraud. I'm punishing you by making you face the wall outside and reflect on your mistakes!"
Jiang Lili, Liao Dabao and others in the room were laughing at the sight of these two funny guys.
In this situation, everything seemed to be back to the break time at school, some people were making noise, some were laughing.
No matter how the environment changes, as long as they are still this group of people, they will remain happy and lively.
Marquis Zhaoping, who came out of the kitchen serving dishes, saw the interaction between Rong Shen and Sheng Zhixing and sighed with a smile, "Brother Sheng is in really good spirits!"
"He's over 50 and still so lively and active, like a 20-year-old boy!"
“Hahahahahaha!”
When the students heard Marquis Zhaoping's sigh, they laughed even louder.
Seeing these lively people playing and laughing, Lady Yang, the wife of Marquis Zhaoping, went into the bedroom with a smile. Before leaving, she reminded Jiang Lili, "Lili, come to my bedroom."
Yang went into the bedroom and put the needle and thread on the bed into a basket.
There were two sewn fur collars in the basket, one was dark brown tarantula fur and the other was white fox fur.
Every year, Yang had the habit of sewing fur collars for her daughter, daughter-in-law, and sister-in-law. This year, she spent the New Year in exile, and she was busy with the affairs of the village school, so she was delayed, but she still sewed the fur collars out of habit.
While sewing, she could always think of her daughter Xin Ningyu talking with her head resting on her knees, or her sister-in-law Xin Yingshu smiling at her while holding a hand warmer, and the longing in her heart was somewhat comforted.
Jiang Lili walked in, her bright red skirt swaying with her steps, looking very pretty. "Mom, are you looking for me?"
When Yang saw Jiang Lili coming, the smile on her face became softer, and she took out a folded cloak from the closet.
In the weather of Haizhou Island, fur collars are rarely useful. However, they can still be used in the mountains when the wind is strong.
Yang prepared a lotus pink cloak embroidered with pear blossoms for Jiang Lili. Yang's embroidery was excellent. When she spread out the cloak, under the light, it looked as if there was really a layer of pear blossoms spread on the cloak.
Yang's eyes were gentle and soft. "Li Li, take a look at this cloak. Do you like it? If you like it, I'll make a few more for you next year."
Jiang Lili's eyes flashed with surprise. Just from the embroidery, it was clear that Yang had put a lot of effort into it. If this cloak were put in modern times, it could be put directly in a museum!
But now she can wear it, and there will be more in the future!
Jiang Lili smiled sweetly, dimples forming on her face. "Thank you, mother. I like it very much."
Yang smiled and joked, "If Ning Yu knew that I spent the longest time making your cloak among all these products, I'd probably be jealous of you."
But she just couldn't help making beautiful clothes for Jiang Lili. Such a pretty girl should wear nice clothes every day.
That crazy girl Xin Ningyu could make any clothes dirty no matter what she wore. Yang had given up on dressing Xin Ningyu up a long time ago.
Marquis Zhaoping and his wife already knew that Xin Ningyu, who was sent to the grassland to marry, was not only safe and sound, but also had the support of Li Li's friends and was living well.
The Xin family army who came to Haizhou Island from the grassland also brought Xin Ningyu with them. They wrote many "diaries" on the grassland. Life on the grassland was very comfortable, and they felt at peace.
"Li Li, thank you for your trouble. If we can meet your friend on the grassland, the Marquis and I will definitely thank this benefactor profusely for taking such good care of our Ning Yu in such a dangerous grassland."
Jiang Lili laughed when she heard that. It’s not certain who will take care of whom!
"Hahaha, it's okay! Speaking of which, my friend should thank his parents for giving birth to such a heroic and chivalrous woman."
However, Xin Yingshu is now trapped in the deep palace and cannot escape, and Yang is also very worried.
"I don't know how Yingshu is doing in the palace. Che'er heard that Yingshu has been released from the cold palace and has been promoted, but I'm always worried that her life in the palace is difficult."
Jiang Lili held Yang's hand and said, "Don't worry, I have people in the palace too."
Yang's eyes widened in surprise. "Girl, meeting you is truly a blessing for our Zhaoping Marquisate for three generations."
Jiang Lili blushed at the compliment, and Yang put a cloak on her: "We're going down the mountain later, and this cloak will be perfect for you."
As she spoke, Jiang Lili glanced at the two fur collars in the basket and said, "There's no use for fur collars on Haizhou Island. Are these made for Ning Yu and Aunt Yingshu?"
