Chapter 17: The Sensible Child

Unexpectedly, after a heavy rain, these rainbow dumplings became life-saving. Ruoshui knew how much this little ball was tempting to the child, so he just opened it and shook it in front of the child, and didn't say that he wanted to give it to him.

"Sister, are you eating these? The red, red, green and green are so beautiful~"

The air after the rain is exceptionally fresh, so the aroma of this dumpling is much more pronounced than usual. Ruoshui was not in a hurry to ask the way back at this time, she casually picked up a green ball and took a small bite, chewing it carefully, and said as if talking to herself.

"Alas~ I came out for most of the day, and it rained again, but I was a little hungry, so I still had to eat something first. Little brother, since you refuse to tell us about the way back, then don't go over it~ We can only ask for more blessings for ourselves~"

"Sister, you give me a taste, and I'll tell you the way back."

After all, he was still a child, and snacks were obviously much more attractive to him than silver money, and the sound of swallowing saliva was so loud that all the three people present could hear it clearly.

Almost without much struggle, he had already lost to the gluttony in his stomach, and immediately said that he would lead the way.

The goal has been achieved, and if the water is naturally no longer necessary. She stuffed the whole bag of rainbow dumplings into the child's hand, and pulled him into the carriage.

The mighty man soon put the horse back on the cart, and the group, guided by the boy, soon reached a small courtyard on the slope of a hill.

Just now, the two of them fled from the wolf, but they didn't even notice that there was such a beautiful scenery on the boundary of Fengtong County.

The small courtyard is built on the mountain, located on the slope of the steep cliff, there are a few camellia trees in the courtyard that bloom are splendid, two transparent bamboo houses lean against the cliff, the side wall of the roof is crawling with vines, there is a mountain spring flowing by the window, there is a tree that seems to be a thousand years old entrenched outside the courtyard, a man-made swing hangs down in the huge canopy, swaying slightly in the wind.

The beautiful scenery in front of her seems to have sucked Ruoshui's soul away, how can modern society still see such an ingenious natural creation, she sat in the car in a daze, if it wasn't for the tall and strong called her a few times, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to wake up until dark.

"Sister, this is my home. Now that the sky is over, I am afraid that you will be lost in the woods again when you go back now, it is better to rest at my house for the night, and I will send you out tomorrow. ”

The boy licked his fingers, and several dumplings had obviously been eaten clean by him along the way, and his attitude became completely different, and he called "sister" extremely affectionately.

"I think you're a kid who has memorized my sister's craft~"

Gao Dazhuang laughed and teased him, after seeing that this boy was completely scheming, Gao Dazhuang no longer confronted him, but he still inevitably teased him occasionally, and then looked at his puffing appearance and laughed.

"My sister is so beautiful and has good craftsmanship, I really don't understand why there is such an unreliable big brother as you."

"You kid is unforgiving at a young age, and I don't know how your father taught you such a character of not admitting defeat. Since I'm here, I'm going to pay a visit to Lingzun Lingtang. ”

Who knew that when the boy heard the words of the tall and strong, his eyes turned red all of a sudden. He bit his lip, only threw down the sentence "I want you to take care of it", and jumped out of the car like a deer, and disappeared into the bamboo house in a blink of an eye.

"Big brother, this kid is not bad-hearted, we can get out of trouble thanks to him, you don't want to bully others anymore."

The boy's face changed suddenly, Ruoshui also saw it in his eyes, and guessed in his heart that he was afraid that Gao Dazhuang had offended others in his words. But I don't know why he changed his face, so he can only symbolically say a few words of tall and strong.

After all, he still asked people, in order not to sleep in the wild tonight, the tall and strong nodded and agreed.

The two got out of the car, but the owner didn't say anything, and he didn't know whether to improve or not, so he could only stand outside the courtyard and look around. In early autumn, the weather after the rain was even cooler, the clothes of the two were soaked, and the breeze blew, and they shivered from the cold.

"Sister? Why haven't you come in yet? ”

At this time, the boy poked his head out of the bamboo hut, and his two big eyes were round and flashing with doubt.

"Ah~ I didn't prepare any gifts for my first visit, so we were a little embarrassed~"

Ruoshui said.

"Didn't I eat my sister's rainbow dumplings~ Even if it's a gift~ Come in, come in, I'll boil some hot water to keep my sister away."

The boy walked backwards out of the bamboo hut, dragging a large iron pot in his hand that did not match his size.

Seeing this, Ruoshui hurriedly glanced at Gao Dazhuang, who hurried over in a few steps, took the cauldron from his hand with one hand, and asked with a bowed head.

"You kid doesn't have two taels of meat on his body, let me do this kind of hard work~ Little guy, where is the stove?"

"Humph!"

The boy didn't answer, but shrugged his nose behind the tree outside the courtyard and snorted. Ruoshui was afraid that the two would clash again, so he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the boy's shoulders and asked kindly.

"Little brother, where is your father? My eldest brother and I have just arrived, and although we have not prepared a generous gift, we should also come close to pay our respects. ”

The boy was silent for a long time, his eyes reddened again, and he lowered his head and whispered.

“…… They're gone. ”

"Huh? Uh, I'm sorry, I don't know, I'm sorry......"

Ruoshui hurriedly apologized, wanting to comfort but didn't know what to say, so he could only repeat these words over and over again. The tall man couldn't bear it, so he didn't say anything more, picked up the iron pot and went to boil water behind the tree. He really doesn't do this kind of work to coax children, so he should quickly hide to the side and stop provoking others.

"If my sister feels sorry for me, just make me something to eat. My father and mother have been gone for several days, and I haven't eaten much these days. ”

Tears still glistened in the boy's eyes, but the corners of his mouth were raised. Obviously, he was bereaved at a young age, but in turn comforted Ruoshui, who was at a loss.

No wonder those rainbow dumplings ate so fast before, it turned out that he hadn't eaten ordinary meals for a long time~ Listening to what he said, I thought that my father and mother were also newly mourned, and it was the most helpless time, but I didn't expect him to be so strong, and when I first met, I couldn't see the ups and downs he had experienced.

Looking at such a sensible poor child, if the water can't hold back anymore, the tears will be like beads with broken threads.

She comes from another world, and she knows the pain of never being able to see her loved ones again, and she immediately wants to take this child into her arms and feel sorry for her.

"Whatever you want to eat, my sister will make it for you right away!"
