Chapter 10: Sick (Revised)

Li Tiezhu entered the outhouse with a red face, although he was stupid, he was not a child anymore, he was just teased by Zhang Ping, this brain is still hot.

So after coming in, he was stunned and wanted to go to the West House, but was stopped by the old man Zhang who heard the movement from the house and drove out, "It's an iron pillar, Erchun moved to the East House." ”

Li Tiezhu turned back to the east house like a headless fly, and when he came in, he found Erchun lying on the small north kang, so he strode over, and stopped two steps away from the kang, "Erchun, what's wrong?" ”

There was caution in his voice, for fear of annoying Erchun and scolding him again, he was not afraid of being scolded by Erchun, when he saw him from childhood to adulthood, he didn't scold him, but he didn't want to make Erchun hate himself.

Erchun raised his head and glanced at him when he heard the voice, then retracted his head, and said in a very nasal voice, "It's okay, it's just a little cold, you go home for dinner, you have to go to work in the afternoon, don't delay you." ”

The outhouse was the sound of an old man flipping things, thinking that he was cooking.

Li Tiezhu in the room listened to Erchun's words, but he was also anxious, and grabbed his head, "What are you delaying, that... Then I'll go home and ask my mom to make you some noodles. ”

"You stop." Erchun stopped him with heavy hair, sat up while supporting his body, looked sideways at Li Tiezhu who turned back again, and a pair of apricot eyes broke away with a little energy, "I'm just a little heavy-haired, it's not a serious illness, what's the matter with you asking your mother to make noodles for you, what's the matter with falling into the water in the morning, the village also knows, you asked your mother to make noodles for me again, didn't you remind your mother to remember what I did in the morning?" ”

"Well....I'll do it for you." This doesn't work, that doesn't work, Li Tiezhu doesn't know what to do.

Although Erchun knew that he cared about himself, he had to be annoyed, "If you don't want your mother to hate me, go back and do what, you don't have to worry about me, just rest for an afternoon, and you can come over for dinner in the evening." ”

"Then I'll listen to you." After hesitating for a while, Li Tiezhu nodded innocently, looking at Erchun's lack of energy, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Erchun saw that he didn't leave, and stood there for a long time moving his lips, obviously having something to say but didn't dare to say, he couldn't help but have a headache, but he still dealt with him patiently, "If you have anything to say, just say it, I don't eat people." ”

Li Tiezhu's face was hot, "No....it's okay, it's....just...."

"Speak well." Erchun was already dizzy, and when he heard this stuttering, he felt that his head was going to explode, and he couldn't help but interrupt him.

But with such a sternness, Li Tiezhu spoke smoothly, "Erchun, I will be good to you for the rest of my life." ”

As soon as he dropped the words, he turned his head and rushed out.

Brute Bull.

Erchun muttered, but his heart was still sweet because of the sudden confession, and he lay back on the kang again, and he didn't feel so uncomfortable.

didn't let her think about anything, so she fell asleep in a daze, during which she felt like her body was roasted on a steamer, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and heard Li Yanhong's voice talking in a loud voice, but she didn't remember what she said, and then the sound of her grandfather calling her to eat, she only remembered that she answered twice randomly, and then fell asleep again.

When Erchun woke up, the house was quiet, her head was not sinking, she looked up and wiped it, and found that her forehead was full of sweat, knowing that it was good, and she didn't know what time it was, she sat up and looked out of the window of Xiaobei Kang to look at the house, and through the window of the outhouse, she could see that the sky outside was still bright, but she couldn't miss it when she thought about it, and it was almost two or three o'clock in the afternoon at this time.

Tearing off the quilt and going to the ground, Erchun saw the tea jar on the side of the kang, picked it up and drank a few sips of water, felt that there was food in his stomach, and he also had some strength, so he went down to the ground.

She had just walked a few steps when she heard movement in the outhouse, the quilt door of the east room was opened, and Li Yanhong walked in in an autumn coat and pants, looking at him as if he had just woken up, and the shoes on his feet had not yet been put on in a hurry, so he stepped on the roots of his feet and came out, obviously in a hurry.

"Awake? There is porridge in the pot, and your father cooked it for you before he went to the Hetao, and I will serve it to you. Li Yanhong didn't feel anything, and when he saw that Erchun was really awake, he turned around and went to the outhouse again.

Erchun has been working all morning, and he has been sick again, and he is still hungry until now, and he really has no strength, and he is not polite to him, so he sat on the south kang and waited, Li Yanhong came in with a large bowl of millet porridge, and in the bowl of his other hand were two eggs, compared with his strong body, the two bowls in his hand made him look very funny at this time.

"These two eggs were sent by the Li family." Li Yanhong put everything on the kang, folded it to the outhouse, took the chopsticks back, and handed it to Erchun's hand, "I think the Li family kid is good, I saw you asleep when I came, and I didn't wake you up, so I put the eggs in the pot and warmed them." Don't look at his stupid mouth, these two people don't just rely on being able to say, they have to be down-to-earth, this kid is good, he is a good young man, if he is in the army, the more silent you see, the more he is a good soldier in the end. ”

Erchun buried his head in eating porridge, and after a few mouthfuls of porridge, he also came back to life, raised his head and stabbed him, "What good did Li Tiezhu give you, let you help him talk like this?" I'm marrying a man, not going to war. ”

"Look at it, say a few words about your girl's temper and come again, I, Li Lao, aren't you afraid that you can't see that this is a good young man?"

"Okay, okay, old Li, I can memorize your words, are you used to being a leader before, and everyone loves to reason when you see this? I'm not a three-year-old child, so why don't you teach me if you don't understand? Erchun was unceremoniously and directly interrupted Li Yanhong's words.

Li Yanhong was choked when he was said, and his eyes widened, "Yes, my old Li can't talk about you if he doesn't like it, you eat yours, I see that it will still fall this day, your father has dried some firewood, I will go and bring it back." ”

He waved his hand and walked out of the house.

Erchun smiled, "I said Lao Litou, although you speak roughly, there is one better thing, that is, you can recognize your mistakes." ”

After Li Yanhong, who walked to the outhouse, heard this, he grinned and said, "That's it, how can we say that Lao Li is also a literate person, and that is an intellectual." ”

'Wow', and then Li Yanhong's voice fell, and the sound of the door closing came.

Erchun sat on the south kang and saw Li Yanhong who was lowing down in the yard to clean up the firewood through the window, looking at the sky outside, the clouds were really thick, it seemed that it was going to fall again in the past few days, Erchun was also busy picking up a few mouthfuls of porridge in the bowl into his mouth, and went outside with his kang shoes on his feet.

It's already late autumn, in addition to the autumn vegetables sent by the team, those planted in the vegetable garden at home, Erchun was lazy before, and he didn't dry the autumn vegetables like others, and the eggplant beans picked were placed in the small warehouse in the west, and now there are only some red peppers outside to dry.

When Erqiu came out, Li Yanhong looked over, and while he bowed over to clean up the firewood, he urged, "What are you doing here, don't blow it, go into the house quickly, just call me Lao Li." ”

"No, I'll take the chili peppers to the house, skewer them today, and hang them up to dry when the weather is clear." Erchun walked to the wooden fence and took down the dustpan hanging on it, turned around and went into the vegetable garden to collect peppers.

The yard of Zhang's house is not big, the house is more than ten meters long from west to east, the wooden fence of the vegetable garden opposite the house is also four meters, the fence next to the small barn is the small gate of the vegetable garden, the north of the small barn is a chicken frame made of adobe, and there are a few flower hens are gouging and eating around.

Li Yanhong had already piled up all the firewood together, and when he stood up and rested, he looked at Erchun who was working in the vegetable garden, and looked at Yiqiē in the yard, and a smile appeared on his resolute face, as if he had been thinking about waiting for the war to be over, so he lived quietly, with a small home, working at sunrise and returning at sunset.

It's been a few months since I came to this village, and it's the first time I've felt like I've come out of home.
