Chapter Fifty-Six: Night Rain in the Mountains

Chapter 56 Night Rain in the Mountains

Then I started farting and chatting with a few people who were getting acquainted with each other, and sat and waited for the food. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But a few people are very strict-mouthed, and they don't mention the identity and origin of the group, sometimes even if Li Chen mentions it intentionally or unintentionally, it is also broken away by a few people, and Li Chen no longer inquires, only picking up some interesting things from his previous life to talk about it to make fun, and for a while, it caused a lot of laughter. When you meet in Pingshui, asking too much is a taboo when you go out.

Talking at night in the mountains, I didn't feel that time was difficult. About an hour later, a strong fragrance came out of the fire. The aroma is mellow and long, with a hint of herbaceous scent, but the smell makes people appetite great. At that time, he didn't find the lotus leaves, so Li Chen picked up a few half-yellow leaves from the ground, but he didn't expect that they would have a miraculous effect by mistake, which was really unexpected.

Several big men glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing, "The craftsmanship of the little brother is really extraordinary, but just smelling this fragrance, it is better than many delicacies that my old Liu has eaten." ”

Li Chen smiled, "It's good if a few brothers like it, this is called flower chicken and will be able to eat it soon." As he spoke, he pulled out a wooden stick from the firewood next to him, slowly opened the fire, and pulled out the two pheasant chops. The aroma of fresh ironing was even heavier, and even there was movement in the hall, Li Chen subconsciously glanced at it, but it was the extremely beautiful mute young man and a girl with a curtain on her face. Seeing Li Chen looking over, the girl wearing the curtain hurriedly hid back, but the thin young man flashed a pair of bright big eyes and looked at the flower chicken at Li Chen's feet very curiously.

Li Chen couldn't help but smile at him kindly, the children of poor families, every New Year's festival are difficult to eat chicken for a while, let alone in distress, I thought in my heart, I should give him half a chicken in a while.

Just when Li Chen lowered his head and pulled the two pheasants, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky in amazement, and the raindrops of beans hit his face clearly. It turned out that a few people were chatting against the fire, but they didn't notice the change. An autumn rain and a cool, not to mention the mountain wind and night rain. A few people didn't dare to stay outside, especially a few animals, if they were sick by the rain, then how to go back became a big problem.

Unable to bother chatting any longer, several guards hurriedly got up, packed up the carriages and horses, and drove them all to the corridor outside the main hall. Li Chen picked up two flower chickens with wooden sticks and hid under the corridor. looked at the big man who was busy packing up his things, and greeted him familiarly, "A few big brothers, do you need help?" ”

"Thank you little brother for your kindness, there are not many things, just a few of us." The person named Zhang Hu was obviously the leader of the group, and he snorted and declined Li Chen's kindness.

Li Chen shrank back in amusement, made way of the place, and let them clean up by themselves. This kind of help naturally has no reason to go to the pole to help, if you rush to help, although a few people talk to their brothers and brothers, but it is obvious that there is still a bit of vigilance and precautions.

As soon as a few people had barely finished their carriages and horses, the rain outside began to fall heavily, crackling down on the yard and steps, and soon the whole night was shrouded in a curtain of water. The movement outside had already alarmed the old lady inside, and she was helped out by the girl in a goose yellow dress and a curtain, followed by a maid in a skirt and a cardigan.

Several men saw their old lady come out in person, and hurriedly came up to salute. Li Chen also bowed, this old lady is kind and kind-eyed, and at first glance she is a kind-hearted person, which is easy to make people feel good. Coupled with the old lady's kind gesture just now, Li Chen was very respectful to the old lady.

"Little brother is polite." The old lady smiled and nodded at Li Chen, before waving her hand to let a few guards be exempt. Only then did he raise his head and observe the rain outside. At this time, it is already September, the mountain wind blows and rains, suddenly the cold air is pressing, the dense raindrops are crackling, there are many raindrops have hit the corridor of the main hall, and the mountain wind blows from time to time, and the bonfire in the main hall is uncertain.

"When you go out, there are not so many courtesies, and it rains heavily in the mountains outside, so you can all go to the main hall to avoid it. This little brother please come in too, if you are out of the house, don't get caught in the cold. The old lady invited Li Chen and the others to harmonize.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the entire corridor was half wet. Although the clothes on the body do not avoid the cold and heat, water and fire do not invade, but there is no reason to enjoy the wind and rain outside, and if the vision is revealed, it will be even more bad for people to covet it. After hearing this, Li Chen hurriedly bowed and thanked the old lady for her kindness. Zhang Hu and the others glanced at each other, and hurriedly thanked the old lady for her grace, and followed into the main hall. However, the cautious Zhang Hu still left a person on duty at the door of the main hall, and this time he welcomed the old lady and young lady back from his hometown, which was not trivial, in case of any accident, he and others would not be able to cut off eighteen heads.

The Buddha statue in the middle of the main hall has collapsed for the most part, and you can only barely see the appearance of the Buddha in the middle. The old lady, the young lady, and the rather handsome little maid were in the southwest corner of the main hall, the floor was quite clean, and there were three splendid cushions on the ground, and a bonfire was burning in front of them. Later, the two ancestors and grandchildren who came in casually cleaned up some places in the northeast corner of the main hall, sat on a pile of hay, and lit a fire for three people in front of them.

Zhang Hu and the others built a bonfire in the middle of the main hall, and then divided a pile to the door of the main hall to warm the servant who was responsible for feeding the horses and cooking just now, and by the way, left a wine bag before closing the dilapidated door of the main hall, and the hall was suddenly much warmer. A few people sat down with a smile, intentionally or unintentionally isolating Li Chen from the ancestor and grandson in distress, and faintly guarding the old lady and the other three inside.

Li Chen didn't care, anyway, he didn't have any bad intentions, the three in front of him knew at a glance that they were capable guards from a family of gate valves, and they were used to guarding the master's errands. However, the thin old man with half-squinted eyes let out a cold snort, and when a few people looked up, they saw that the handsome young man was squatting on the ground to help the old man take care of the rotten sores on his legs, so he took care of himself and cleaned up his dinner.

When I was outside just now, the porridge of several people had already been boiled, and a few hot buns were hot. A few people first took out the dishes and chopsticks and sent one to the old lady and the other three, and then gave it to the brothers who stayed outside on duty, and then began to share food for themselves and others. The bearded old Liu happily handed Li Chen a pair of chopsticks, "Brother, come, let's eat some together, and drink a bowl of hot porridge to warm up your body." ”
