Chapter 707: Small Courtyard
"What's wrong with you?" Li Yuguo immediately stood up and walked over and said, and he found that her hand was scratched.
Diao Chan hurriedly said, "I'm fine, but my hands are a little slippery, which disturbed the general. Yes... I'm sorry."
Li Hugo looked at Diao Chan's veiled face and said, "Do you know Hongchang?"
"Ah?" Diao Chan was stunned and didn't know how to answer Li Hugo.
Li Hugo grabbed Diao Chan's hand and said, "You have a calluse on your hand. This calluse seems to be played out by playing the piano. Could it be that you used to..."
"General, please respect yourself..." Diao Chan pulled her hand back and said with her back to Li Hugo.
Only then did Li Yuguo realize that she was abrupt and smiled awkwardly, "Oh, I was worried that you were bleeding just now, so..."
"I'm fine." Diao Chan said again, but in fact, her heart was very complicated. What she thought in her heart was to immediately pull off her veil and then recognize Li Huguo, so it would be best to throw herself into his arms immediately.
It's almost a year, Diao Chan wants to meet Li Huguo so much, but things are unpredictable, but it makes people sigh that she can't recognize each other, at least not now.
The green leaves next to him were very clever and immediately said, "General, you talk about our sister's sadness. She used to be a maid in a wealthy family. The lady was also called Hongchang, Mao Hongchang, but later she died... and died of illness."
"So that's the case." Li Hugo said, "That's true that you can play the piano, it's not surprising. Maybe it's just a coincidence."
"Accept." Diao Chan said.
Li Hugo was stunned for a moment, "What did you say?"
"I said, you should accept this arrangement. Last time I met the girl named Sun. The girl looked at you with a gentle look. You are a person who does big things and should not affect your brothers because of your personal emotions." Diao Chan said.
"But..." Li Hugo hesitated for a moment.
Diao Chan smiled and said, "If she was still there, would you say she would agree?"
"I don't know, you know?"
"Of course I know that you have been eating beans here for more than three months. I have been listening to you about her goodness, so I naturally understand her. Moreover, she is a woman, and I am also a woman. Only women in the world understand women the best. Since she can jump off the waterfall in order to make you have no worries, she will love you to the core and do not want to become your burden. If you give up the stability of the people in Jingzhou because of her, what chaos will happen? Who do you think you are suffering? Isn't it the people? She doesn't want the people to suffer." Diao Chan said slowly.
Li Huguo heard it carefully, and he smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect you to have such great insights, but I underestimated you, but your words made me suddenly enlightened. Thank you."
"No, it's just a few words." Diao Chan said.
But at this time, it started to snow in the sky. It was a light snow, very hazy.
The snowflakes fell gently and melted instantly when they touched the ground that was still warm.
Honghua filled some firewood on the load and planned to heat up the tofu flowers again, but Diao Chan said, "The snow will get heavy after a while. Anyway, it's almost sold today, so let's go back early."
"Is this good? Miss." Honghua said, and she glanced at Li Hugo in the distance.
Diao Chan was also looking at Li Hugo. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, but she forgot to speak.
Honghua shook her head and sighed, and immediately began to clean up the table. She put the table, chairs and panes together, then placed them on a trailer, whistled, and soon a donkey ran out of the alley.
The donkey hummed for a while and dragged the trailer over. Honghua said, "Amao, you are much more reliable than those stinky men!"
"Puff!" Luye covered her mouth and chuckled, "Although you always say nonsense, you are so right today! Miss, come quickly, we're back!"
"Well, here we come." Diao Chan walked and looked back. Although she could no longer see Li Hugo's shadow, for some reason, she just wanted to look back, even if there was nothing.
After the three women got on the edge of the trailer, Honghua shook the air with a small whip, "Amao, let's go!"
Amao screamed again, and walked through the gradually deserted streets and alleys of Jingzhou with light steps.
At this time, the sky was indeed getting darker and the snow was getting heavier. When she arrived at a small courtyard, Diao Chan took off the snow on her body, and she immediately took off the veil. She was still so beautiful. Perhaps it was because of the experiences along the way that Diao Chan's face had a touch of dust and looked much more mature.
"Miss, I actually think Dr. Xun Yu's family is better, and he has maids to serve him, and he has food and drink. Why do we need to go out to make money? Why do you want to rent this small courtyard and then we will go to sell tofu together?" Luye said.
"If you eat someone's mouth is short, you will take your hands short. We rely on our own. What's wrong with it? There are many things that you want to steal and rob." Honghua gave Green Leaf a white look.
"I'm asking the lady again, not you!" Luye complained, "Miss, Honghua bullied me again."
"Okay, stop making trouble. Honghua, pour the remaining tofu brains of today into the basin and give them to those beggars outside. Green leaves, take these pots and pans to the well to wash them. I have to make a few clothes today. It's cold, and you two girls are wearing too thin." Diao Chan said.
The red flowers and green leaves were also very moved. The two sisters looked at each other and smiled and went to work hard. When Diao Chan came to the inner room, she took out a green-clothed braised cloth, and her heart moved, thinking, "This winter came very early this year, it must be very cold. I wonder if he was wearing those clothes to warm up..."
Diao Chan gritted her teeth, put the flower cloth aside first, built it with the green cloth, and made a coat. This was naturally prepared for Li Hugo, and Diao Chan made it very carefully.
Li Hugo, who was in the mansion, suddenly sneezes. He wiped his nose and murmured, "Who is talking about me?"
"It must be me!" A cheerful voice came from the door. Li Hugo looked up and found that it was Sun Shangxiang.
Sun Shangxiang laughed for a moment, and she took down a cloth bag hanging under her elbow and immediately stuffed it into Li Hugo's arms, "For you!"
"This..." Li Hugo was stunned.
Sun Shangxiang turned around and ran away, "I'll go away and open it again, remember!"
As she said that, she hid far away like she escaped. Li Hugo opened the cloth bag and found that it was a scarf, which should be called a pocket scarf in this era, and it was also used to keep warm. He looked at it and found that it was still a pure wool "Little girl, are you giving it to me?"
