Situ Cheng was lying on the bed, her son Shen Bao was watching her, his little hands gently caressing her cheek. She felt very happy in her heart, and looked at Shen Bao with a smile and fascination. She wanted to ask Shen Bao where her sister Shanbao had gone, and why she didn't come in to see her.

But she couldn't ask that sentence, she was sweating profusely, and she opened her mouth wide but couldn't make any sound.

After working hard for a long time, I finally called out "ah".

It turned out to be a dream.

When she opened her eyes, she saw a little boy as old as Shenbao standing in front of her bed, looking at her curiously.

"My sister woke up, my sister woke up." Then he ran out with his little feet.

It turned out that Situ fainted in the crop field, and it was a peasant couple who rescued her and placed her in their own home. The family had five sons and three sons. The eldest is an adult and has not yet married, the second is only twelve years old, and the third is the child just now.

"Didn't you say she was awake? Why are you still motionless, are you lying and lying to me again? The second Shizier, who was pulled in by the third child, said.

"I was obviously smiling at me with my eyes open. Why don't you move now, you wait, I have a way. As he spoke, he leaned forward and pinched Situ Ming's cheek with his dirty little hands.

Situ Cheng opened her eyes tiredly again, and said in her mouth, "Water, water." ”

"Second brother, did you see it, I didn't lie to you, she really woke up." Mi'er said.

Shi Zi'er heard that she wanted to drink water, so he scooped a bowl of cold water from the outside water tank and brought it to her.

Situ Ming didn't care, and drank a bowl in one go. Then he asked Shi Zi'er if she had anything to eat, Shi Zi'er took a nest left over from noon and handed it to her, and boiled some boiling water to serve her after eating and drinking.

Situ Cheng gained some strength and asked, "Where is this?" ”

"This is our family, it was our father and mother who rescued you from the ground." Shi Zier said.

"Sister, you look so beautiful but you stink a little bit." Mi'er said.

Situ Cheng originally crawled out of the pile of dead bodies, can it not stink? But I don't think it's just that, when I heard Mi'er say this, I blushed with shame.

"It seems that you are so clean, you see that your black hands are almost up to the bottom of our pot." Shi Zier said.

The two brothers curiously asked Situ Cheng about the west, and Situ Cheng had to lie and say that he had a headache and didn't remember anything.

"What year and month is it?" Situ asked Shi Zi'er.

"Thirty-one years of Orthodoxy, today is the seventeenth day of the seventh month, and you have been lying in my bed for two days. My mother has fed you two bowls of gruel spoonful by spoonful, you really don't remember anything? Shi Zi'er asked in disbelief.

It turned out that she felt that she had only been in the Commander Division for less than a day, and a year had passed in the world. In a year's time, her babies should be a lot taller again.

Tong Guò learned from Shi Zi'er that the family's surname was Shi, and the villagers called Shi Zi'er and his father Lao Shi.

The Shi family lived a farm life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset, plowing in spring and summer, and harvesting in autumn and hiding in winter. It seems to be very comfortable and self-sufficient, but it is actually very hard. Spring is not allowed to shelter from wind and dust, summer is not allowed to avoid heat and heat, autumn is not allowed to avoid rain, winter is not allowed to avoid cold and freezing. Between four o'clock, there is no day off.

When the year is good, it's okay to say. If there is a flood or drought in any year, you will not even be able to make ends meet after a hard year. In addition, the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are also very heavy, and the officials are tyrannical, and it is extremely difficult to survive.

It was sunset, and the Shi couple came back from the field with farm tools on their shoulders. When I saw the smoke rising from my thatched house, I was surprised when Shizi'er would cook.

When I entered the house, it turned out that the little girl I picked up yesterday morning was making a fire and cooking. Aunt Shi was busy chanting the Buddha's name in her heart, and originally thought that this little girl had fainted for two days and had not woken up and could not come back to life.

Situ Ming saw the old couple coming back, and hurriedly got up from the stove and said, "Auntie and uncle, wait a minute, the porridge will be ready soon." ”

"Little girl, you are still weak, how can you do your work. Hurry to the back room and rest. Aunt Shi said.

The Shi couple gave birth to three boys, so they saw that the girl was extraordinarily close, and they appreciated this girl so sensibly and diligently. Looking at what she was wearing, I thought to myself that the girl from a big family was lost, and I never thought that this girl would still do this job.

After a while, dinner was put on the table, millet porridge and vegetable dumplings, and Aunt Shi brought out a plate of pickles.

"Little girl, where is your home, why did you faint on my land, what is your name?"

Before Situ Cheng could answer, Mi'er said, "Mother, this sister is probably accidentally dropped by the heavenly immortals while walking." ”

"Adults talk, children don't interject, what nonsense is there." Shi Damiang said.

"Mother, don't ask, she doesn't know. People like me, who broke the casserole and asked to the end, could ask how many legs the casserole had and didn't ask anything. I thought she was a fool, but I didn't expect the food to be delicious. ”

Shi Zi'er stuffed his mouth full of food and said vaguely.

Situ Ming knew that she had suffered too many terrible things, if she told the truth, who would believe such strange things, not regard her as crazy, and think that she was possessed by evil. Besides, the woman didn't let her mention the various things in her previous life to others, and there must be a mystery in it.

She told Aunt Shi that she only remembered that her name was Situ Ming, and she didn't remember anything else.

Uncle Shi glanced at Aunt Shi, but Aunt Shi didn't notice and just talked to Situ Ming.

"The surname is very rare in our local area. Listen to the girl with a foreign accent again......"

Uncle Shi simply stepped on Aunt Shi's foot, and Aunt Shi screamed.

"You old stone, what's going on today? I don't eat well, and my legs and feet are not restless. ”

"Who doesn't eat well, I said that even food can't stop your mouth. You love to talk and go to the corner by yourself after eating, delaying the children from eating. Uncle Shi said in a suppressed voice.

When Aunt Shi heard him say this, she understood in her heart. Oh, it turns out that the girl doesn't want to say it, so why should she talk too much to annoy people.

Situ Cheng saw that the attitude of the Shi family and his wife was cold, and he was very uneasy.

After finishing the meal, she came to the room of the Shi couple and knelt down on the floor:

"I have thanked my uncle and aunt for saving my life, and if I have the opportunity, I will repay the grace of dripping water with a spring."

Aunt Shi was startled at first, and hurriedly went over to help her up.

"What's wrong with the little girl, we're just handy, not a life-saving grace. Just ......"

"I know that my uncle and aunt don't believe what I said during the meal, but I didn't hide the truth from what I said. I only remember my maiden name, even my last name, I knew it from the things I had with me, and I didn't know where I lived or who was in my family. I don't know why I fainted here. ”

As he spoke, he took off the jasper bracelet from his left arm and handed it to Aunt Shi, and then asked:

"Does the eldest lady know that there is a local family surnamed Situ?"

There are very few people in the peasants who can read and break words, and Aunt Shi squinted for a long time and then asked Uncle Shi:

"Old Stone, do you recognize these two words?"

Uncle Shi looked at Aunt Shi's hand and said:

"Do you dare to tease me, this old woman? When did I become literate? But this thing is crystal clear, and the shining iron must be a precious thing. ”

"Anyone who looks at it knows that this is a treasure, and you still need to say it."

Mrs. Shi handed the bracelet to Situ Cheng again and said:

"The girl guessed your last name from the words on this bracelet? But let the girl smile, we rural village husbands, we have never heard of the surname Situ. ”

Situ Cheng pretended to be disappointed and wept and said:

"How's that good, who am I?"

Situ Cheng cried as she spoke, holding her head in both hands, snot and tears streaming everywhere.

Although the words are half-truths and half-truths, the love is true, thinking of his past life, tears can't stop flowing.

Aunt Shi, who said bluntly, also cried: "My poor girl, it's not that my aunt is suspicious of you, but I'm afraid that your family will lose you." You can't think of anything for a while, and don't push yourself too hard. ”

Uncle Shi also persuaded:

"If you have a token and a surname, you will definitely find a way to go home. Seeing that the girl talks and behaves like she is from a big family, they will definitely find a way to find you. You stay in our house first, and then slowly plan for the future. ”

Mrs. Shi took her hand and said intimately:

"Child, you are also very close to our family. When you and Uncle Shi saw you for the first time, we felt that this was because God had mercy on us and deliberately sent it to us. If you don't despise our poor family, let us be your parents for a while. ”

Situ Cheng saw that the old couple of the peasant family were so kind, but she couldn't tell the truth, and she felt very uncomfortable.

So he fell to the ground and recognized him as a godfather, and no longer mentioned the words of looking for his biological parents.
