Chapter 361: Li Qiuluo
The sudden heavy snow in early autumn broke the tranquility of this small village located at 43 degrees north latitude, and the strangers who rushed into the village also brought a trace of novelty to the villagers who had never fought with the world all year round.
Li Debao, the son of the old village chief, faced the heavy snow and only cared about leading the old man's traveler to his home, but he didn't pay attention to the few young people who followed him for a while. When the wooden door of the yard was opened, Li Debao's daughter-in-law, Aunt Qiao, was tidying up in the yard -- the heavy snow came so quickly that there were still some dry goods in the yard that had not had time to be taken back into the house, and at this time a thin layer of snow had been spread. As soon as I saw Li Debao push the door in, Aunt Qiao, who was busy and panting, didn't reply and said: "Boss, come and help, these things have finally been dried, and if they are really wet, they can't be eaten in winter." ”
"What are you going to do, boil the water, Dad fainted. ”
"What?" Aunt Qiao turned around, just in time to see the white bear carrying the old cigarette walking into the yard, and hurriedly walked up, "Dad, oops, what's the matter, Dad......"
"Don't shout, boil some water, there's a guest at home." Li Debao waved his hand impatiently, "Go quickly!"
"Hey!" Aunt Qiao, who grew up in the village, has long been accustomed to the atmosphere of being in charge, and does not feel embarrassed in front of outsiders, so she hurriedly went to scoop water and burn firewood, and turned around with a bucket, but saw a young man into the courtyard, Aunt Qiao's hands trembled, and the whole pot of water was turned on the ground in the courtyard, washing away the thin snow that had just fallen, leaving a clear watermark, "When ...... The ...... in charge" Aunt Qiao pointed to the young man who had just walked into the courtyard with his body bowed, her fingers trembled, and her voice trembled.
Li Debao happened to lead Bai Xiaoxiong to put his father on the kang, and heard the mother-in-law in the yard scream again, plus the broken weather and the old man fainted for no reason, so he was in a nameless anger, Li Debao rushed to the entrance of the hall and wanted to scold his mother, but his body suddenly froze, looked at the young man in the courtyard dumbfounded, and made the same reaction as his mother-in-law, and stretched out his hand to point at the young man: "You...... You ......"
Li Yundao was shocked and puzzled in his heart, looked at Li Debao and frowned and asked, "Do you recognize me?"
In the past, almost all the girls in the village had never gone to school, and Li Debao's primary school graduation was the highest education in the village in this generation, but there was still a difference between those who had read and those who had not. At least Li Debao could react quickly, shaking his head and muttering to himself: "No, if you are still alive, you should be about the same age as me......"
Li Yundao was shocked, almost grabbed it in one step, and pulled Li Debao's arm: "What did you say?
Li Debao is a native of the mountains, hunting in the mountains almost every day, although he is fifty and two, but his body bones are no different from those of young people in the city who are thirty or forty years old, he was pulled by Li Yundao, but his body did not move at all, but he still stared at Li Yundao's face suspiciously, muttering to himself that he didn't know what he was talking about.
Aunt Qiao suddenly rushed up, pushed Li Yundao away, guarded the boss to death, and yelled at Li Yundao with red eyes: "What are you doing when you come back? Why did you come back? Isn't it enough for you to kill Qiu Luo?"
Li Yundao was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning, and the hand that grabbed Li Debao slowly let go. He looked at Aunt Qiao, his eyes were a little sloppy, and he said to himself: "He killed Qiu Luo, the white-eyed wolf killed Qiu Luo, and the white-eyed wolf killed my mother's ......."
Aunt Qiao stubbornly guarded Li Debao, protecting the head of the house like a threatened she-wolf. Li Debao reacted quickly and patted Aunt Qiao's shoulder: "Qiao, it's okay, he's not that person, he's too young." ”
Aunt Qiao only reacted at this time, looked at Li Yundao suspiciously, and only when she confirmed that the person in front of her was just similar to the white-eyed wolf but the age was completely inconsistent, she breathed a sigh of relief, but still looked at Li Yundao with vigour, it seemed that in her opinion, a man who looks like this is not a good thing, otherwise Qiu Luo would have married her brother a long time ago, and now the dolls should have given birth to a bunch of them.
Li Debao gently brushed Aunt Qiao away, glanced at Li Yundao again, didn't say anything, turned around and entered the house, he already knew why his father suddenly fainted.
There was Bai Xiaoxiong here, helping the old man to massage and invigorate the blood, and the temperature on the kang slowly came up, the old man's face was slowly ruddy, Li Debao was relieved, sighed, and patted Bai Xiaoxiong's shoulder: "Big brother, I've tired you." ”
Bai Xiaoxiong shook his head and smiled: "Raise your hands to do your best, besides, it should be." ”
Wang Xiaobei just now saw it in his eyes, he should be one of the people who know the inside story best, before he came, he was already mentally prepared, no matter whether he could find that Li Jia Village or not, as long as he found the right opportunity, he would have a showdown with Li Yundao. However, he didn't expect that the news that Li Yundao's second brother Hui You brought back from Paris was so accurate, that they really found this "Li Family Village", and it was a very coincidental coincidence that as soon as he entered the village, he ran into the family members of the "victims" of that year.
Wang Xiaobei opened his mouth, but did not speak. After Bai Xiaoxiong glanced at Wang Xiaobei, he also retreated. Only the confused Shandong girl Qi Baoxi stood stupidly on the edge of Li Yundao, looked at the master and then looked at the Diao people around her, she couldn't figure it out, how could she enter a village and fall down, and before she said a word, why did she conflict?
Lao Yan's physique is very good, and he woke up leisurely after a while, and when he saw that his son and daughter-in-law were all guarding him, the old hunter frowned: "What are you doing so closely?
Li Debao smirked twice: "Dad, you are our backbone, if you fall, how will you suffer this winter?"
Lao Yan sat up straight, obediently picked up the cigarette gun on the kang head, wiped his eyes on the match and lit the toad smoke in the pipe, and clicked twice, and the green smoke was filled. The old hunter didn't speak, he glanced up at Li Yundao, seemed to adjust his breathing, and then nodded at the latter: "Child, come, sit!"
Li Yundao sat down mechanically, looking at the old hunter in front of him with a blank expression, his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Child, who is in the house?" Lao Yan took another puff of a very rushed toad cigarette.
Li Yundao didn't speak, he was digging out his pocket, digging out several times, but he couldn't take out the cigarette case in his pocket, and finally Qi Baoxi, who was standing next to him, couldn't look at it, and helped him take out the cigarette case and put it in front of him. Li Yundao's hand was a little trembling, and the usual action of popping out a cigarette from the bottom of the box did not work, he could only take it from the mouth of the box very clumsily, took one, but handed it to Li Debao who was standing aside first.
Li Debao glanced at the cigarette, hesitated for a moment, but still took it and clamped it on his ear. By the time Li Yundao took out his own stick and put it on his lips, the old cigarette had already lit a match and sent it to him. Li Yundao didn't excuse himself, so he lit the valuable red panda with the fire sent by the old cigarette. It was the first time in his life that he had enjoyed such expensive cigarettes on his own.
The room was very quiet, Li Yundao took two puffs of cigarette, and the sound of cigarette paper burning seemed to be heard clearly. Lao Yan didn't speak, just looked at Li Yundao, Li Debao and Aunt Qiao didn't speak, and also looked at Li Yundao who was smoking empty. Shandong Niu Qi Qiushui couldn't stand the weird atmosphere in the house, and deliberately stretched: "It's been really hard this way, Li Yundao, didn't you say that you came here to find relatives?"
Lao Yan sat cross-legged on the kang, the cigarette gun in his hand trembled again, and suddenly said, "Your surname is Li, your name is Yundao?"
Li Yundao shook and breathed a sigh of relief, the hot taste of tobacco finally calmed his feelings a lot, his eyes were no longer empty, he looked up at the old man with an expectant face, and said calmly: "I am Li Yundao." Mu Zi Li, the cloud road of 'thousands of miles of floating clouds finally return to the avenue'. ”
Lao Yan suddenly stretched his head over, and said mysteriously: "You were brought up with the monk?"
Li Yundao nodded vigorously: "My master's name is Karma Pashi." ”
Lao Yan put down the cigarette gun in his hand, turned his head and glanced at Li Debao and his daughter-in-law: "Prepare wine and food!"
Li Debao was stunned: "Dad?"
Lao Yan didn't care if this son had already taken over his class as the old village chief, and the old smoking gun on the table was on Li Debao's buttocks: "My eldest nephew came back to see my uncle, do you want to entertain you as a cousin?"
Li Debao grinned, but his eyes were still a little hesitant: "It's really Aunt Qiuluo......
"Why don't you go soon?" the old man's eyes widened, and Li Debao ran away with his daughter-in-law. Aunt Qiao still wanted to gossip, but she was helplessly pulled out by the owner.
Qi Baoxi was stunned, looked at Lao Yan's wrinkled face, and said suspiciously: "You...... Is it really his uncle?"
Lao Yan took a sip of the good-tasting toad cigarette again: "It's like a fake." ”
The person concerned, Li Yundao, took several deep breaths before he had the strength to speak: "You...... Can you tell me about me...... Qiu Luo?"
Lao Yan sighed, cross-legged at the glass that had been frosted on the window: "Qiu Luo, that's my good sister......"
Outside the door, the sky was covered with snow, and the snow seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. When he walked back to Li Debao's yard, he saw Wang Xiaobei squatting alone at the gate of the courtyard, tilting his head sideways, and staring blankly at the falling snow in the sky.
The white bear crouched down next to his childhood friend, tilting his head sideways to look at the snow.
Wang Xiaobei asked, "Are you so tired?"
Bai Xiaoxiong said, "Of course I'm tired. ”
"Then why do you want to learn from me?"
"I just think it's my brother who has to accompany you at this time. ”
"Little bear baby, how do you say I can talk to him?"
The white bear didn't roll his eyes, put his hands in his sleeves, and shook the snow that fell on his shoulders.
"You don't have to open your mouth. ”
