Listening to Sha Yi's words, Valing felt that it made sense, so he picked up a piece of sashimi, gently put it in his mouth, and then swallowed his stomach with a narrow eye, and said with a reluctant face: "Alas, it's so fishy." ”

Seeing that Valing was eating very uncomfortable, Sha Yi pretended to be very delicious and picked up a piece of sashimi, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said while eating: "Well, it's good, it's delicious, or this Oriental person can eat it, this taste is really good!" ”

"Sha Yi, is it really as delicious as you say? You know, I really think it's unpalatable. Valing looked at Sha Yi holding her head and said reluctantly, but if there was a second food, she would never eat this sashimi.

In order to fill Valing's stomach, Sha Yi pretended to be delicious and said: "Ling'er, it's really delicious, you just don't get used to eating the first bite, if you eat it again, the more you eat, the more delicious it will be, I don't believe you can continue to eat it." ”

Seeing Sha Yi's sincere appearance, Valing had no choice but to pick up another piece of sashimi, put it in her mouth and licked it slowly, at first she was really not used to the fishy smell on it, so she wanted to vomit. But after some struggle, she felt that the taste was still quite good, so she stared at Sha Yi and said, "Sha Yi, you are right, it is really delicious!" ”

"Ling'er, believe me, right? You know, if it's not delicious, do you think the whole Oriental people will eat it every day? They don't like us, they either roast the fish over the fire or boil it in a pot before eating it. They all eat the fish and cut it into sashimi. They say that this kind of fish is delicious enough to maintain the original flavor of the fish. Sha Yi took the sashimi and talked to Valing, telling Valing everything he saw from the book.

"It's not wrong to be original, it's really authentic." Valing pinched the sashimi and said very self-deprecatingly.

"Ling'er, it is estimated that after returning to the capital, you will still bring this sashimi to the table, you must know that this is a famous dish in the East!" Sha Yi laughed and teased Valing while eating.

"Yes, in the future, when I don't want to eat, I'm afraid I'll really have to bring it to the table to remember the days of my misery here, so that I can balance my mind. I feel how happy and nourishing my life is. Valing looked at the sashimi and said thoughtfully.

"Well, Ling'er, you're really strange, other people's bitter vegetables are all green vegetables or cabbage tofu soup, but I didn't expect your fish bitter vegetables to be sashimi, it's really special." Sha Yi looked at Valing and said with a smile, he felt that every moment with Valing was very happy.

"Sha Yi, look at how there is an old man lying there inexplicably, it's really pitiful, isn't it a refugee? Let's go over and have a look. Valing suddenly saw a very depressed old man lying on the shore of the West Lake, and said to Sha Yi

Seeing the old man's miserable and starving to death, Sha Yi also felt very unbearable, and stepped forward to help the old man and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with you, are you hungry?" ”

"Yes, I'm really hungry, do you have anything to eat?" The old man's hair was messy like that of a madman, and his face was all dirty, so that it was impossible to see his true face, but his body looked very strong, but he was weak in speech.

"Uncle, we don't have anything to eat, but we just made sashimi from a dead fish to eat, do you want to eat it? Although you are not used to eating, I think you can taste it first, at least it will fill your stomach and not starve you to death. Valing brought the rest of the sashimi to the old man, and spoke to him very softly.

"Childe, it's okay to have something to eat, why don't you care so much, as long as it allows me to live, I'm willing to eat anything, not to mention eating sashimi, even if it's, I'm willing to eat." The old man looked at the sashimi in Valing's hand and said expectantly.

Listening to the old man's words, Valing and Sha Yi were really startled, they both felt that this old man's willpower to survive was so strong, but they didn't expect that in order to survive, they could even eat, how much patience it would take.

"Uncle, you can eat, at this time we have just cut the sashimi, it is very delicious." Valing said as he put the sashimi on the old man's hand piece by piece.

The old man looked at the sashimi and stuffed it directly into his mouth, without even tasting the taste, and swallowed it directly into his stomach.

"Uncle, eat slowly, I'll choke you." Sha Yi looked at the old man's gobbling up, for fear that he would choke to death again, and said anxiously.

"It's okay, it's okay." The old man waved his hand and said, he was very grateful for the generosity of Valing and Sha Yi.

Seeing that the old man was hungry, he gave the old man all the remaining sashimi to eat, and when the old man had finished eating, he said to him, "Old man, where do you live?" Let us send you home. ”

"I live in a far, far away place, I fled here, I don't have a home." The old man looked at Sha Yi and Valing and said helplessly.

"Old man, it turns out that you don't have a home, but how can you survive here alone now?" Valing looked at the old man's miserable appearance and asked with concern.

"I don't know, it seems that I can only live by begging." The old man sighed and said helplessly.

"Old man, it just so happens that the two of us don't have silver tickets, so we can't go home, or we'll go together. You see that you will be very lonely alone, if you are sick or in any danger, no one will care about you, wouldn't that be too miserable? Valing looked at the old man and felt that he was pitiful, so he offered to go with him.

Listening to Valing's words, Sha Yi pulled her aside and said anxiously: "Ling'er, don't be kind, okay, before we find out what the identity of this old man is, how can we take him with us at will?" What if he was the bad guy? ”

"Sha Yi, how can there be so many bad people in this world, don't always think about people as bad or not. You see, that old man is already very old, even if he does bad things, it is estimated that he will not be able to do any big bad things, so it is better for us to take him with us. You see, now that the flood has just passed, if we don't care about him and believe that he will starve to death, do you want to watch him starve to death? Valing felt that Sha Yi had no sympathy, and was very angry and argued with him.

Thinking that what Valing said was also true, Sha Yi had no choice but to say to him: "Okay, but you can't tell this old man the identities of the two of us, otherwise if he uses us or disadvantage us, we will be miserable." ”

"Got it, Dingbei Hou." Valing laughed and teased Sha Yi.

Looking at Valing's sweet and lovely smile, Sha Yi's heart softened, and he immediately changed his words and said: "Ling'er, everything is up to you to decide, I listen to you for everything, I really can't do anything about you." ”

Seeing Sha Yi and Wa Ling cooing, the old man lying on the ground looked at them with very powerful eyes, thinking that you two people still treat me as a bad person, it's good if I don't treat you as a bad person. You only worry about your own safety, you must know that I value my life more than you, and I am worth more than you.

"Uncle, we want to find a place to work now, do you want to come with us, or stay here and wait for us?" Valing said as he looked at the old man sitting on the ground with a weak appearance.

"Two sons, I definitely can't sit here and wait for you, no matter what I can do when you leave, I'll go with you. In this way, I will have a good response, so that I will not be sick and die here, and no one will care about me. The crazy old man said deliberately miserably, just to gain Walling's sympathy, because he could see that Valling was a very kind child.

"In that case, you can come with us." Valing picked up the old man, patted the dirt on his body very considerately, and tidied up his clothes.

Sha Yi was very satisfied with the way Wa Ling treated the old man, so he also helped Wa Ling hold the old man, and the three of them walked forward.

"Sha Yi, you said that we have been looking for a long time, but we haven't found a place to labor, what should we do next? You can't just sit back and die, just go home really begging. Valing looked at Sha Yi and said helplessly.

"Su Fan, what do you say?" Sha Yi found that a crazy old man was present, so he immediately changed his name to Ling'er, hoping that you, the crazy old man, would not see that Valing was a woman disguised as a man.

"I think after the flood, the imperial court officials will definitely find laborers to repair the embankment, why don't we go to a place where there are officers and soldiers to find something to do, so that we may be able to earn a little more labor fees." After thinking about it for a long time, Valing said to Sha Yi very seriously.

"It's a good idea to do things for the court, you must know that only by going deep into the court can you know my heart." Sha Yi said thoughtfully, he was still concerned about fighting the flood for the people.

Listening to Sha Yi and Waring's strange words, the crazy old man frowned, and didn't say a word, but he had an idea in his heart.

"Sha Yi, but we do things for the imperial court, what about this old man, he is old, it is estimated that the officers and soldiers will not want him." Valing looked at the crazy old man and said in embarrassment, she felt that they couldn't just leave the old man alone.

"When the imperial court is short of people now, I don't think it will care about my age, they will definitely want it, and I can help them cook at that time, which is quite good." The crazy old man looked at Valing and Sha Yi and comforted him very seriously, he couldn't be clearer about the faces of these officers and soldiers.

"Uncle, what you said is right, now is an emergency, no matter how old or young, I believe that as long as someone is willing to do it, it is estimated that the court will want it." Valing analyzed the reality and felt that the old man was right.

After several inquiries, the three of them came to the place where the imperial court recruited laborers, and looking at the bustling queue of people, Waling said with emotion: "I didn't expect these people to take care of their homes, and there are so many people who come to work as laborers." ”
