"Brother Zhengzhì!"

Hu Niu looked up and saw Ye Zhengzhì, her eyes were more bright, and she said hello crisply. Then he hurriedly dropped the axe in his hand, handed the prepared lighter to Ye Zhengzhì, and asked him to light the firecracker he brought.

A burst of firecrackers rang out in the village, and the smoke filled the air before being blown away by the wind.

Hu Niu was afraid that Ye Zheng zhì would not understand the rules, so she led him to the mourning hall, slightly guided Ye Zheng zhì, and worshiped according to etiquette.

"Come on! I'll chop wood for you! ”

After going through the rituals, Ye Zheng did not leave immediately, but decided to stay and help her chop wood.

"Hmm!" Tiger Niu nodded.

Ye Zheng rolled up his sleeves, picked up the axe, and was secretly surprised, this tiger girl's strength is really not small. Although he was as active as the tiger girl back then, if he wanted to pick up this axe to chop wood, I am afraid he would definitely not be able to do it.

Syllable!

Ye Zheng raised his axe high and slashed towards the erected log, and his facial features became more agile due to the effect of the spirit rhino ring on his body. The blade of the axe slashed from the center of the log, splitting in half at once.

Then he erected one half of it, and it was also free, and it split the two halves cleanly.

Hey?

Ye Zheng was very satisfied with his chic chopping firewood, and originally thought that Hu Niu would applaud next to him, but when he looked at it, Hu Niu was squatting on the ground and picking up firewood seriously, not paying attention to his wonderful performance at all.

"Tiger girl, have you eaten?"

After Ye Zheng chopped another piece of wood, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and spoke at her, actually worried that she was hungry. Originally, Guli asked Hu Niu to come to her house for dinner, but Hu Niu refused, I heard that Hu Niu cooks by herself these days.

"Ugh! I'm going to cook! ”

The tiger girl suddenly realized, and turned to the kitchen with her small body holding the firewood.

Ay......

Ye Zheng looked at her little background and sighed, he noticed that this little girl was different from usual. It's just that he didn't know how to persuade her, so he decided to help her chop the firewood and slowly understand her inner world.

She had a hunch that Tiger Niu might have an evasive mentality from the outside world.

Even though it was already noon, the sky was still gray, and it was a cloudy day with a cool breeze.

After the tiger girl finished scouring rice on the edge of the water tap, she went to the vegetable field in front of the door to pick a small cabbage and washed it neatly. This busy work lasted for more than half an hour, without any stagnation in the middle, like a diligent housewife.

"Brother Zhengzhì, the meal is ready!"

After the tiger girl cooked, she silently sent a bowl to the mourning hall, and then went into the kitchen to prepare for dinner. The meal was very simple, just a boiled cabbage and a bowl of pickles.

Ye Zheng sat down at the table, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and planned to accompany her, but turned his head sideways and found that the tiger girl was not unusual, she was really eating. Watching her eat, there was nothing wrong with it, but it didn't have the familiar feeling before.

When eating, he surprisingly didn't say a word, and seemed to become a little adult overnight.

Suddenly, someone outside came to visit, and she hurriedly dropped the dishes and chopsticks when she heard footsteps, and trotted out again. Then greeted the visitor according to the etiquette, and every qiē was in order, so that the visitor praised her in his heart.

Hey?

Ye Zheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, because after the tiger girl sent those people away, she didn't come back.

He walked out of the kitchen, looked at the door, and finally found the figure of the tiger girl. She wiped another stone with her sleeve, and it had fallen some traces of gunpaper and gunpowder, apparently the firecrackers of those men hanging on the stone here.

Looking at her anxious wiping, Ye Zheng felt a lot of worry.

No one understands the relationship between the tiger girl and her grandmother, she basically did not enjoy the love of her mother, and was raised by the seventh woman since she was a child. Now that the seventh woman, the relative who loves her the most, is gone, how can she not be sad!

It's just that after I came back, I listened to everyone praise Hu Niu for being sensible and strong, and she didn't cry, but took care of things properly.

Ye Zheng has never experienced great sorrow in his life, and he has not understood the pain of losing his loved ones, but he knows that Hu Niu must be very uncomfortable in his heart. And this attitude of hers is actually an abnormal feeling, and she is afraid that her heart hurts more than anyone else.

"Cry out!" Ye Zheng came to her and gently touched her head.

"I can't cry!" Tiger Niu shook her head and said helplessly.

"Why!" Ye Zheng asked incomprehensibly.

"Grandma is gone, Mom doesn't want me anymore, Dad was arrested by the police again, I'm an adult in the family!" Tiger girl naturally said that the situation that appeared.

Ye Zheng looked at her childish face, and felt worried for a while, such a fate was too unfair to her. Although I know that there are people like Hu Niu in Huaxia, this kind of fate should not happen to this little girl.

"Tiger girl, you still have me, I will be your brother in the future!" Ye Zheng looked into her eyes and said seriously.

"I ...... I've always treated you as a brother! Tiger Girl's eyes responded sincerely.

"I mean, you will follow me to the South China Sea in the future, and I will take care of you!" Ye Zheng put his hand on her shoulder and made a decision.

I don't know when he has regarded Hu Niu as his sister, and now he is very worried about letting Hu Niu stay in the village alone. Although there are left-behind children in the village, these situations are different, and their parents go out to work and are taken care of by other relatives.

But Tiger Girl's father is locked inside, and he has always ignored Tiger Girl.

"I don't want it! I'm going here, I'm not going anywhere! Tiger Girl shook her head stubbornly.

"You can't stay here alone, Sister Chu Chu and I will worry about you!" Ye Zheng shook his head and said.

"I don't have anyone, I want to accompany grandma, grandma will come back." Tiger Girl argues excitedly.

"Your grandma is gone, and she won't be coming back!" Ye Zheng said loudly.

"Grandma's gone?" Hu Niu double-checked, her little body trembled slightly, this was the only time she had heard someone say such things to her in so many days, and suddenly she broke free, "You lied, grandma said that she would take care of me, and if she sold the cow, she would buy me Coke and French fries, and she would buy me a lot of candy." ”

The tiger girl finally shed tears silently, picked up her little short legs and walked towards the mourning hall.

After a while, the cry of the tiger girl came from inside, and she was crawling on the coffin, and her tears fell down in large drops, like a flood that had burst the embankment. Although she wanted to become an adult immediately and shoulder this family, she was too young to hide the sadness and helplessness in her heart.

"Grandma! Grandmother! ”

The tiger girl choked out, two lines of tears running down her cheeks and dripping from her upper jaw into the open mouth. At this time, where is there a tiger girl with the style of a female man, there is only a helpless little girl.
