Loyal heart travels a long way

Song Zhiyao has been looking forward to the evening since she got up in the afternoon, and she couldn't sit still after four quarters of Shen Shi, so she simply took a pony and sat outside the Chuhuamen, holding a basket of melon seeds and waiting for Qin Yong to come back while coughing melon seeds .He remembered that Qin Yong liked to eat peach cakes, the peach cakes were filled with melon seeds, they were so delicious, I'm afraid the whole mouth was filled with a soothing fragrance!Song Zhiyao was happily drinking vigorously, but at the same time couldn't help but glance at the screen wall from time to time to see if his brother had come back.

Qin Yong came back very early this time, he promised Song Zhiyao that he would have dinner together in the evening, he handled the errands quickly, and stepped into the gate of the Qin Mansion as soon as Youshi arrived.

As soon as he turned around, he saw their small garlic seedlings at the door of the Chuhuamen, with a small horse tie under their buttocks, a large basket on their legs, and several small bowls at their feet, three of which were filled with melon seeds. Jen is full.

Song Zhiyao followed Qin Yong for almost a month. Seeing that he was short, Qin Yong ordered someone to give him different ways to nourish his body every day. There must be fish and meat for dinner, and soup before going to bed at night. Snacks never stopped.When Song Zhiyao first followed Qin Yong, a handful of melon seeds didn't have much flesh on her face, her face was not white, and she didn't have a big appetite, so she couldn't eat anything. After nourishing for a while, her appetite became better, her chin became more rounded, and her face was also white. It's no different from other young masters.He had suffered a lot in the past, and his hair was all withered and yellow, but now that he is a flesh and blood Yunting, he began to faintly show signs of growing taller.The body was nourished lately, and the development was a step behind others. When I was eating melon seeds just now, one of the lower front teeth was actually broken down by the melon seeds.

Song Zhiyao was a little dazed, Song Ruyan and Song Ruyue were much older than him, when he could remember, Song Ruyue's big teeth had all been replaced, and when he met Ah Man, Ah Man's new front teeth had already grown, and no one had ever told him about it After the age of six, people have to change their teeth.

What's more, he is already nine years old this year, and the first baby tooth is finally willing to leave his gums.

Song Zhiyao was at a loss, blood was stained on his lips, he stuck out his tongue to lick it, the fishy smell in his mouth immediately gave birth to a kind of sadness.He felt that he had some serious illness, today he only lost one lower front tooth, but the tooth next to him seemed to be loose when he licked it, so wouldn't he lose another one tomorrow?What about the day after tomorrow?What about the day after tomorrow?After the teeth are gone, will there still be hair loss? There are only so many things on my head, and if I lose them all, I won’t become a monster?Song Zhiyao was taken aback by her own imagination, staring at the tooth in her palm in a daze, she didn't even react when Qin Yong walked through the Chaoshou corridor and walked up to him.

Qin Yong wanted to laugh at him, but the young lady of other people's family didn't step out of the second door. He could neither be considered a young lady nor dared to call himself a young master, so he could only be sandwiched between the main door and the second door as a stone of hope, until he walked in front of Song Zhiyao. I found that Xiao Suan Miao'er's mood was not right.

He knelt down and pinched Song Zhiyao's face: "What's the matter? It's dark before it's dark."

Song Zhiyao looked up and saw that it was Qin Yong, who had been sad for a long time, the blood on her mouth was dry, and she had imagined all the things behind her, and when she finally saw her relatives, she blinked and almost cried: "I am afraid If you are sick, it may be worse."

Hearing that he was ill, Qin Yong was startled. Just about to ask him what happened, he found something missing from Song Zhiyao's mouth. Listening carefully to his voice, it seemed that there was something wrong with his words— — “Open your mouth and show me.”

Song Zhiyao didn't understand what he meant, and Qin Yong didn't know how to see a doctor, but he still obediently opened his mouth to show Qin Yong.Qin Yong pinched Song Zhiyao's chin and looked at it for a long while, vaguely seeing Song Zhiyao's missing tooth was faintly rich, and a new tooth was about to grow out.

"I was negligent, Yao'er just started to change her teeth." Qin Yong took out a handkerchief and wiped Song Zhiyao's mouth - the handkerchief was embroidered for him by Song Zhiyao, and Song Zhiyao also learned embroidery from Aunt Gu and Mama Sun. It's not very delicate, but it's better than an average big girl. The handkerchief is embroidered with yellow ginkgo leaves and ginkgo fruits, as if the yellow leaves like a small fan will fall off when you shake it.After wiping Song Zhiyao's mouth clean, Qin Yong folded the handkerchief dignifiedly, put it back in his arms, shook his head and said with a smile: "Where is this disease? It's because Yao'er is about to grow up."

"Didn't you get sick?" Song Zhiyao was still dazed, how could she lose her teeth properly if she wasn't sick?

Starting from the area of ​​Qin Yong's index finger, he scratched Song Zhiyao's bridge of nose: "Where's the tooth that fell out?"

Song Zhiyao showed Qin Yong the teeth in his heart eagerly, Qin Yong untied the money bag on his waist, poured out the money in it and handed it to Qian Duoduo: "Put the silver bill back into the box, Yao'er nodded." If the teeth are replaced, the servants in the house will be rewarded with broken silver coins, two taels per person, if there is any leftover, you and Xiaoman will keep it."

Only now did Song Zhiyao come back to the memory, and realized that it was a person who wanted to change her teeth, so she was a little embarrassed, Qin Yong didn't wait for him to say anything, took the small tooth on his palm and put it in the purse, then pulled Song Zhiyao up, and Holding him by the hand, he said, "Eat your meal first, and then take care of your tooth after eating."

Qin Yong has observed that Song Zhiyao is not picky and eats whatever he has, but he prefers meat in comparison.For dinner, the kitchen used gluten stewed bones, finely sprinkled with coriander and chopped green onion, Song Zhiyao could eat a bone by herself normally, but today she was listless, only ate some gluten and drank soup, Qin Yong knew that he just lost his teeth Can't chew these hard ones, let the kitchen cook meat porridge again and put it on the stove to simmer.

Song Zhiyao didn't eat much during the meal, and only drank some tea after the meal. Qin Yong took him to stand under the magnolia tree in the yard, and handed him a fragrant ball full of money.Fragrance balls are a thing in the palace. There are plenty of them in the Qin Mansion in the capital. Song Zhiyao has never seen them.

"This is called incense ball." Qin Yong patiently showed Song Zhiyao how to use the incense ball, and explained to him while fiddling with it. "There are incense balls on this small bowl. No matter how you shake it, the incense balls will not fall out." .”

Song Zhiyao looked at it for fun, but didn't know what Qin Yong's purpose in bringing the incense ball was, she watched helplessly as Qin Yong took out the money bag containing his deciduous tooth, took out the small tooth, wiped it clean with a damp cloth, Then put the little tooth into the small bowl in the incense ball: "This way Yao'er's teeth won't fall out."

Song Zhiyao still doesn't understand Qin Yong's intention of doing this, so why not ask him to tie it around his waist every day?After that, don't I want to hang more than [-] incense balls in my eyes?If that's the case, I don't need to be called Song Zhiyao, it's better to be called Gu Lingdang, which suits the occasion.

Qin Yong threaded the incense ball with a red ribbon, and tied it to the yellow orchid tree as a treasure: "My mother said that if the lower teeth fall off, they should be thrown on the roof, and if the upper teeth fall off, they should be buried in the soil. Teeth grow fast. But I was afraid that Yao'er's teeth would be blown to the ground by the wind, so I thought that since they were going to be placed high, it would be better to hang them on a tree."

It was the first time that Song Zhiyao heard Qin Yong talk about the wife of the Qin family, and she quietly listened to Qin Yong's words. This is the person Qin Yong cherishes, and the person he wants to cherish.

When Qin Yong mentioned Mrs. Qin, Song Zhiyao had also seen the tenderness in his eyes inadvertently in Auntie Gu's eyes. He had a little nostalgia for such tenderness, and couldn't help being fascinated by it.Qin Yong knew that he was thinking of his mother, so he rubbed his head: "I am here."

Qin Yong's eyes were filled with the same tenderness when he looked at him, Song Zhiyao felt warm all over, and couldn't help rubbing the top of her head against his palm.

"Yao'er has grown up."

"Really? I really grew up?"

"It's long, taller than my waist."

……

The trunk of the yellow orchid tree is not thick, and the crown is not very high, but its leaves are crisp and green. Although it is not yet blooming, the light-colored buds are beginning to protrude.With the breeze blowing by, the flower buds nodded lightly, as if they felt that this scene was really pleasing to the eye.

After standing in the courtyard for a while, the two of them went back to the study. Qin Yong promised Song Zhiyao that he would teach him to write a new name.From now on, there will be no more Song Zhiyao, the concubine of the Song family. His name is Gu Zhiyao.

Gu Zhiyao, Gu Zhiyao, he read his name silently, Qin Yong taught him to write, and explained to him the meaning of each word.

May he have no worries from now on and stay away from disputes.

Gu Zhiyao liked this name very much, and felt that Qin Yong was a literary star who fell from the sky to help him get such a good name, but Qin Yong just smiled and shook his head and said, "It's all about borrowing flowers to present Buddha."
