Phoenix Shadow Coming From the Sky Chapter 18: 、Luanfeng couple 2
At the foot of the mountain on the east side of Qianbi Mountain, there is a village called "Yuewa Village", which has about 30 households. In front of the village, there are a lot of paddy fields and land for farming, and it is backed by the mountain, where firewood can be cut. , hunting, so the villagers have no worries about food and clothing, and their lives are quite peaceful.
Jiuyao and Feng Duying walked all the way, and when the sun set, they arrived in front of Yuewa Village.
"A Ying, shall we spend the night in this village today?" Jiu Yao asked looking at the smoke rising from the village.
Feng Duying nodded.
The two walked to the village. It was halfway through Shen's time. The men doing farm work in the fields were all finishing work and going home, while the women in the family were washing rice and vegetables for cooking. Burning firewood, more people are still chasing and playing with their partners. At this moment, they suddenly saw two strangers who had never seen them walk into the village, and they couldn't help but stare curiously.
"Aying, look at the firecrackers and red papers scattered in front of this house. It's not long before we come here for a wedding. Let's go to this house tonight and have some fun, okay?" Walking into the village, passing by five or six households Behind them, Jiuyao suddenly stopped in front of a family.
There is nothing wrong with Feng Duying.
There is a large soil lawn in front of that family's house. On the lawn, some dried vegetables and wild mushrooms are dried with bamboo plugs, while some straw and firewood are spread out. On the steps in front of the house, a woman with frosty temples The man was picking vegetables, and when he saw two strange young men and women approaching, he was surprised and couldn't help but stop and get up.
"Auntie is well." Jiuyao saluted politely.
"My lord is well." The woman hurriedly replied, and looked at Feng Duying behind Jiuyao by the way. When he looked away and looked back at the young man with deep dimples and innocence in his smile, his mind was calm again.
"Ma'am, Zhuojing and I passed by Guicun when we went out to play. It's getting late, so I want to stay at your place for one night. Is it convenient?" Jiuyao looked at the woman warmly.
The clothes of the two are elegant and handsome, and the woman is very happy when she sees them. The young master and the young lady don't dislike it. Come, please come in and have a drink of tea."
The chairs and stools were moved, tea was brought, the woman warmly entertained her, Jiu Yao was able to speak well, and soon chatted with the woman, and in a few words, she found out the situation of the family clearly.
The family's surname is Niu, and the villagers call the woman Niu Da Niang. The head of the family has not returned from working in the field. The two elders have three sons. I lived in this old house with my youngest son, and married a new wife for my youngest son three days ago. The daughter-in-law is from Shuiwa Village, twenty miles away.
Auntie Niu was cooking while talking with Jiuyao. Because there were guests, she specially cut a piece of bacon and fried wild mushrooms. She also slaughtered a grass carp left over from the wedding and steamed it until the delicious food was served. The uncle of the Niu family came back with a **** on his shoulders. When he saw a guest at home, he greeted him warmly with a smile on his face.
A meal, the host and guest enjoy themselves.
After the meal, Uncle Niu, who had worked all day, went to the back of the house to wash and rest, while Aunt Niu brought tea, and sat at the table with Jiuyao to chat about family affairs.
"Auntie, your family is going really well these days." Jiu Yao looked around at the furnishings in the house.
Except for the thatched hut in the pigsty behind the house, the four houses in front of Niu’s house are all tile-roofed houses. There is no shortage of household items in the house. Compared with many ordinary people who only have two thatched huts with bare walls, the humble house is already a well-to-do family without worrying about food and clothing.
"TOEFL, TOEFL. It's incomparable with the riches and honors of your son, but our small family is satisfied with food and clothing." Although Aunt Niu didn't know the family background of the young master Yi surnamed in front of her, she lived for dozens of years. At the age of 10, they still have good eyesight. Just by looking at the clothes and conversation of the two of them, one can tell that they are of extraordinary background.
Jiuyao smiled and said: "The three sons of the aunt's family have all married wives, and they have built houses for the sons respectively, which shows how capable the aunt and uncle are."
Although this is a compliment, it is also the truth. Aunt Niu was very happy when she heard it, and said: "Nowadays there are no military disasters, and there are few natural disasters. As long as you are not lazy, life will be difficult. If In the past..." The aunt couldn't help sighing when she thought about the days before, "If it was before, the three boys in my family didn't know if they would be able to grow up. In Sun Mantang's life here today, I'm afraid that his life is in danger, and maybe he will be left without a body. Fortunately, fortunately, the world is peaceful now, and we can live in peace." After she finished speaking, she clasped her hands and closed her eyes, facing the wall The Bodhisattva on the road worshiped, "May God and Bodhisattva bless this Dadong Dynasty to be safe and peaceful."
Feng Duying, who has hardly made a sound since entering the house, listened to what the aunt said, and couldn't help but turn his head to look outside the house, with a touch of joy floating in his eyes.
Naturally, Jiuyao saw her expression, smiled slightly, and continued to chat with Aunt Niu, "How many grandchildren does Aunt Niu have now?"
Speaking of her grandsons, Aunt Niu's eyes lit up immediately, and a smile appeared on her face, "Now I have four grandchildren, two boys and two girls, all of whom are strong and smart. The eldest is a daughter-in-law who married four years ago. The second child married two years ago. After his grandson went to the farm, the house couldn’t fit in. The year before last, he asked the neighbors to help him and built three rooms for the eldest and the second child in the east of the village. It was considered a separation, and they were filial I brought my grandson to visit us every few days, and now my youngest son is married, and next year he will have a grandson."
"My aunt is really blessed." Jiuyao smiled and praised.
"Where, where." Aunt Niu said humbly, but her face was cheerful, "When I married our old man, that was thirty years ago... At that time, today I came to a Dawang Village to collect Liang, tomorrow a great king will come to the village to recruit soldiers, and the next day another great king will lead his soldiers to kill him... At that time, he was frightened day and night, so he never thought that he would have the peace and happiness he has now. Alas, if this man wants to live, he only asks for no soldiers This is a natural disaster, so sooner or later I pray to God and Bodhisattva to bless our Phoenix King Antai and live a long life."
"Oh?" Jiuyao's heart moved, and he looked at Aunt Niu strangely, "Who is this Phoenix King?"
"It's our lord—King Qing." Aunt Niu bowed towards the void with her palms together.
Jiuyao frowned, glanced at Feng Duying who was sitting in a daze outside the house, and then looked at Aunt Niu in a puzzled manner, "Since His Majesty appointed her the 'Qing King', I don't know that Madam Niu Why do you call her 'Phoenix King'?"
"Young Master Yi must be a foreigner. If you think about it, you don't know what happened in our Qingzhou a few months ago." Aunt Niu glanced at him, and then bowed to the sky with her palms together, "Our lord has a title called ' "White Phoenix", it is said that she is as beautiful and dazzling as a phoenix in the sky, but that is only a legend, we ordinary people have never seen it. It was just three months ago that a very powerful thief rebelled and took away Two cities, and then led a group of thieves to attack the king's capital. Seeing the critical moment, suddenly the lord drove a blue divine bird down from the sky. When the thieves saw the lord coming, they were frightened and surrendered It's gone." Niu Niu said here, her face was full of excitement, "Not only thousands of soldiers witnessed that day, but also the people in the capital also saw it with their own eyes. In the sky, he is more majestic than the God of Heaven!"
"Ah!" Jiuyao hurriedly exclaimed.
What happened a few months ago has already been spread in Qingzhou. I have been talking to this "Mr. Yi" many times, but at this moment, I can't restrain my excitement. Seeing his amazement, I feel joy and pride in my heart.
"That's not all. Some thieves fled to Qin City, closed the city gate, trying to make a fool of themselves..." Aunt Niu recalled what the storyteller said.
"Stubborn resistance." Jiu Yao added.
"That's right, that's the one who resisted in the corner. As a result, our lord drove the eagle to fly to Qin City with a group of soldiers on his back, beat those thieves until they cried like ghosts and wolves, and rescued the people of Qin City." Niu Aunt Her eyes lit up as she said, as if she had witnessed the scene of that day, "My lord, think about it, since when did people let people sit on those flying birds? The only one in the world is our master! There is a saying called 'Hundred birds face the phoenix', only the phoenix can control the birds, so it can be seen that our lord is really the phoenix from the sky, so now we call her 'Feng Wang'."
"So that's how it is." Jiuyao nodded suddenly, then turned his head and blinked at Feng Duying, who had been expressionless since Aunt Niu mentioned Queen Qing.
Aunt Niu didn't pay attention to his small movements, but got up and walked to the Bodhisattva statue, bowed and worshiped a few times, "Our Phoenix King is brave and invincible. Those Fan Kingdoms and bandits will be ashamed as soon as they hear the name of Phoenix King." I was so frightened that I was so frightened that I often prayed to the gods and Bodhisattvas to bless King Feng with a long life. As long as King Feng is here, we don't have to worry about foreign invasions and bandits, and we can live in peace and happiness. days."
Feng Duying, who had been looking outside the house, finally turned his head and looked at Aunt Niu who was sincerely worshiping in front of the Bodhisattva statue, his expression moved slightly, and there was something shaking in his eyes.
"His Royal Highness Feng Wang." Jiuyao whispered quietly in her ear.
Feng Duying looked back at him, did not speak, but the flowing light in his phoenix eyes had already told everything, being looked at by such eyes, Jiuyao didn't drink but also had a slight drunkenness, and looked at him with tenderness She was silent.
Aunt Niu turned around after paying homage, and seeing the expressions of the young couple, she couldn't help smiling kindly, "It's getting late, and the young master and the young lady are also tired, let's go to rest earlier."
"It's getting late." Jiuyao got up, "I'm bothering you tonight."
It was night, and Aunt Niu placed the two of them in her son's new house.
Everything in the new house is new and glowing red. The quilt was embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, the pillow was covered with twin stalks of lotus, the window was pasted with lovebirds, and the table was lit with dragon, phoenix and red candles. Standing in the room, the two of them looked at the room full of joy everywhere, and they all looked at each other. Some mood fluctuates, and they all think of the wedding ceremony in the palace that attracted the attention of the whole country.
At that time, they worshiped and got married before thousands of subjects, but at night, there was a Yingshou Palace and a Fengying Palace, each lying alone on their pillows, sleeping alone in love, how could it compare to the warmth and sweetness of staying together and flying together at this moment.
"Aying, tonight is our bridal chamber wedding night." Jiuyao blew out the candlelight, and hugged the wind Duying fell to the bed.
The green tent hangs down, the night is deep, the moon is bright, and people are just right.
