Chapter 14 Survival Rules (5)
Du Yunyang didn't know much about the person next door who was called a dumb beard by her brother. It's just that she knows that this person is not a dumb person, but he is used to being alone, and he never interacts with people in the village, let alone talks to outsiders.
The reason why Du Yunyang knew that he was not dumb was because he remembered that the original master and the two of them had spoken, although it was only a short sentence. It was just autumn last year, the original owner Du Yunyang went to the back mountain col to pick the first wild chrysanthemum to dry and make tea, because her father coughed badly, the doctor said that the wild chrysanthemum tea can be relieved. When he came back, he saw the tall man coming down from the mountain, and although Du Yunyang was afraid of his thick black beard, he still greeted him out of politeness. The man was silent for a moment, then replied.
So even the original owner didn't know what his name was, let alone Du Yunyang, who inherited her incomplete memory. But fortunately, he knew that he was working in the town, and that he had an old father who had been placed in the town, and that he would occasionally return to the village in the winter in addition to returning home to farm when he was busy with the farm.
"Then how do we know he'll be back in a few days?" Du Yunyang asked worriedly, not to mention whether he could come back, even if he came back, he was so scary, he looked very cold, as if he was rejecting people thousands of miles away, could he agree to the request of these two children?
"It's almost the end of the year, he has to come back to prepare for the New Year, after all, his family is here, and their father and son should come back for the New Year." Du Yuncheng said, and seemed to see the doubts in Du Yunyang's heart, so he said a little strangely: "You may not care, our father said it." His father was still in the village a few years ago, and when our father once went home and passed by his house, he found that his father had somehow fallen at the door, so he hurriedly helped to carry the person on the kang, and then went to call the doctor to know that it was the old man who accidentally fell and fainted. That person naturally owes our father a favor, if his father is gone, our two children go to beg him, and he can't refuse it if he is reasonable! ”
"Maybe, Daddy is gone, the future livelihood is a big problem, I've only been thinking about this these days, where do I remember the little things......" Du Yunyang quickly nodded with a smile, and spoke to cover up the past. But I thought in my heart that the memory of the original owner was intermittent, and there might be something she didn't know, so it seemed that she would have to be cautious in her words and deeds in the future.
"Sister, don't worry, our life will definitely get better." Hearing what Du Yunyang said, Du Yuncheng didn't think much about it, but comforted his sister. There are still many things to plan for in the future, but they are still far away, and although this current problem is not too difficult, it also needs to be carefully considered. Fortunately, my sister in this life seems to have become strong and intelligent, and she takes care of him so well. It seems that he needs to get better quickly, so that his sister will not worry so much about livelihood problems anymore. He will definitely let her live a rich life of fine clothes and fine food.
Du Yunyang smiled again, and then began to discuss with him, first put these gifts there.
The snowflakes drifted for several days, and the temperature dropped a little more.
Fortunately, Du Yunyang's sister and brother slept in the same room and lit a charcoal basin, which was better. In the past few days, Du Yunyang has not been going out, and there are steamed two grates of miscellaneous grains and wild vegetables at home, accompanied by the roe deer broth in the pot, and the sisters and brothers are barely full.
Two days ago, Du Yunyang had already smoked the pickled roe deer meat, although the process and the smoking place were a little shabby, but it should be no problem. After all, she is half-baked about this piece, and the smoked meat can be eaten, and she pays attention to how authentic it is.
When he got up early in the morning, Du Yunyang didn't wake up his younger brother, and quietly went to the stove to boil water and wash. Just looked at the pot with only a black nest head and a bowl of broth that was almost gone, and suddenly a little big.
She was thinking about how to cook the frozen bacon when she heard the door open behind her.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Du Yuncheng coming in. Although his face was still slightly pale and sickly, he walked steadily and healthily, and seemed to be much better.
"Sister, it's sunny." Du Yuncheng said.
"......" Du Yunyang was stunned for a moment, and then understood what he meant by this, and immediately looked out of the window happily. Sure enough, when the snow stopped outside, the gentle sunlight shone in the courtyard, and it was early in the morning, and it must be sunny at noon.
"However, the bearded man next door hasn't returned, so we'll have to wait two days." Du Yunyang was happy, and pouted depressedly. If there is no food, you can't just boil water if you can't eat bacon, it's cold to think about.
"He's back, he came back last night." Du Yuncheng said lightly: "When I got up last night, I heard movement next door, and I faintly saw that there was a light in the courtyard. ”
"yes, that's great. But...... Or Xiao Cheng, you go and talk to that bearded man, I, I'm not very good at ......" Du Yunyang rarely blushed, although she is a person with three people in her bones, but as a senior otaku, she really can't deal with people, let alone ask for a bearded person who looks scary. She really couldn't do this, so she had to be cheeky and push the matter to her brother. Although her cheap brother looks cold and indifferent, she always feels that he is a sign of maturity, maybe because he lost his father, so he is precocious......
Du Yunyang explained herself here, but she didn't see Du Yuncheng seeing her so shy, and she rarely had a smile on her face, so she nodded and walked out of the door of the stove room and walked out of the outer courtyard.
"Hey...... How did this go? When Du Yunyang was stunned, he found that his younger brother had opened the gate and walked out, leaving a row of deep footprints in the courtyard. Suddenly muttered: "Don't be in such a hurry, at least go after eating." He said this, but his heart was very warm. It's good to have someone who treats him like this, at least in the future, his younger brother will be his own support, and he will no longer have to be alone in everything, and he will never want that feeling of loneliness anymore......
After Du Yunyang warmed up the broth and wotou, he heard the door knock again, and Du Yuncheng came back.
"Besides, why do you say that you can just go, it's not too late to go after eating, and you're just sick, why don't you wear more than one when it's cold outside?" When Du Yunyang saw him come in, he was not in a hurry to ask about the situation, but counted him down, and then Zhang Luo brought the broth and nest head to the small table, and then put a wooden spoon in the bowl and shook Du Yuncheng's chin, signaling him to eat quickly.
"Bring another bowl, I'm well from home, so from today onwards, you don't want to do everything to me first. We are sisters and brothers, relatives who depend on each other, and everything will be shared in the future. And I'm a manly man, so I should take care of you. He said to himself, and when he saw that Du Yunyang was stunned for a moment and didn't answer, he went to the stove and brought a bowl by himself, put the bowl of broth halfway in this bowl, and then broke the nest head in half. Then he continued: "I have already agreed with Uncle Thirteen that he has something to do and will come back before the end of the day, and we will go to the town together when the time comes." ”
"......" Du Yunyang was first moved by Du Yuncheng's words and actions in front for a long time, and then sat opposite him and drank a sip of hot soup, then remembered his later words, so he asked a little funny: "Who is Uncle Thirteen?" "Could it be that there is another relative she can't remember? But this name is so strange, it is possible that there is a thirteenth aunt. Haha, if there is a thirteenth aunt, then there is still a Huang Feihong......
"The bearded man next door, he calls himself Wen Thirteen, let me call him Uncle Thirteen. He was good, but his beard made him look a little worse. Du Yuncheng didn't understand what was funny about this, but he didn't care, but explained it to her.
