Clear spring and clear water, whisk willow dark pond, west side of the small bridge, smoke people's house.

It's another day, the sun is rising, and the morning light is cloudy.

Patting the shortbread crumbs on my body, I reached for the rice porridge spoon in the center of the table.

"Still eating? You're almost a pig. When Cai Yu saw that I was going to serve porridge again, she couldn't help but "marvel" at my appetite.

"Can you handle it? I don't want you to support me. I glanced at him, snorted, and ate as it was.

"It's not because I raised you." Cai Yu leaned forward, and simply pushed the soup pot containing rice porridge in front of me, "You are really strange, I haven't seen you eat the delicacies on weekdays, but you are addicted to this bland white rice porridge." ”

"What, can't you?" I deliberately raised an eyebrow to look at him.

"Yes, of course." Cai Yu doesn't want to get into trouble for no reason, whatever I say, he will follow.

"How are the two girls eating?" Cai Yu and I were arguing when an old woman in her sixties walked in at the door, smiling and holding a bamboo basket of vegetables in her arms, looking like she was going to put the basket on the stove next to her.

"It's delicious." I took advantage of the gap between the porridge and praised her cooking skills loudly, "I have never eaten such delicious rice porridge, Aunt You, you are so amazing." ”

Aunt You was also happy to see that I loved to eat so much, and after she put the basket on the stove, she bent down and took out a little green dust from a crockpot on the ground and sprinkled it on the white porridge I was eating.

"You taste it." Aunt You smiled and sat down next to me, "Keep it, you can't stop anymore." ”

I glanced at Aunt You suspiciously, and half-convinced took a small sip of rice porridge.

When the rice porridge first entered the mouth, there was nothing special except for the sweetness of the white rice, but after only a while, a cool and sweet taste spread from my mouth, and the taste was not like porridge, but like a sweet spring in the mountains, clear and transparent, and the golden light shimmered.

"Auntie, what did you just add? This... It's also so delicious! "I was so shocked that I really wanted to bring that crockpot with the crocks back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Aunt You seemed stunned when she saw me so surprised, but soon she returned to her original color.

"This thing, my aunt and I don't know what it's called, but my son mentioned it, saying that when I drink porridge every day, I put it in it, it tastes good, and it can strengthen my body." Aunt You saw that the rice porridge in the soup pot had bottomed out, so she got up and planned to serve it to me again, "Since you like to eat, eat more, and Auntie will serve it to you again." ”

"No need, auntie." Cai Yu really couldn't bear to let me hold myself to death, and stopped, "We'll go to Cousin Gu in a while, he's at the village chief's house now, it shouldn't be far from here, right?" ”

"It's not far, it's not far, how big is our village." Aunt You waved her hand, then stood up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks for us, "Go out and turn right, until you reach the end, the one with the white lantern is the village chief's house." ”

"White lanterns?" I was stunned when I just wanted to get up and help clean up, and asked suspiciously, "This is so good, why do you hang a white lantern?" Is it ......?"

Aunt You hurriedly signaled to me and asked me not to ask about the next words.

"Miss Shen, since you and your sister have taken the wrong path and come to our small village by mistake, then hurry up and prepare some outfits, and let your cousin take you to find your relatives, don't ask if you don't ask about the affairs of our village, don't ask anything."

Aunt You's expression was very flustered, as if she was afraid of something.

Cai Yu and I glanced at each other, and then tacitly looked away.

"Auntie, we must keep what you said in mind, so let's go to Cousin Gu and ask him to take us away as soon as possible." I promised Aunt You, and then went out of Aunt You's house with Cai Yu.

Before leaving, Aunt You also told us to go early and return early, and not come back after dark.

"What do you think?" I asked Cai Yu beside me.

"This morning, the undercover agent came to report that there was a murder case in Bosa Village at the end of last month, and the death was the village chief's daughter-in-law, Zhao Lan." Cai Yu pulled the pink handkerchief in his hand and leaned nervously to my side, "Do you know how Zhao Lan died?" Wronged souls ask for their lives! ”

"Really?" I saw Cai Yu's small movements, and snickered in my heart, "It seems that the incident I heard about before is not groundless." ”

Cai Yu's face turned pale, if it weren't for the tall and tall others, it is estimated that he would have shrunk into my arms regardless of the man's face at this time.

"You...... You can't be talking about the son of the village chief of Posa Village who disrespects ghosts and gods and is haunted by unjust spirits...... This rumor, right? ”

"yes, yes." I nodded seriously, "In the middle of last month, the village worshiped the village of Posa, such a grand day, but Liu Xingwang, the son of the village chief of the village, was nowhere to be seen, until the end of the worship, the village chief sent someone to find him drunk on a grave. Since then, there have been rumors in the village that Liu Xingwang is blasphemous and that Po Suan Jun has found a good place for him to stay. ”

"As soon as Liu Xingwang's daughter-in-law died, didn't it confirm this rumor?"

"Don't... Stop it. Cai Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shaking his body and sticking to me, "You know, since I was a child, I was most afraid of these ghosts and mountain spirits......"

"Just like you, don't blame He Wei for always looking for you to practice when he was in the academy." I glanced at Cai Yu who was holding my arm with disgust, "It's morning, it's blue and white, do you need to be so scared?" "Every day

"Humph!" Cai Yu hugged my next door and didn't let go, but he didn't want to suffer at all, "When I was in the academy, in addition to looking for me, he was looking for you the most, don't forget, once you were dragged out of the library by him, and Du Rong was punished so badly by the master, even I had to get up in the middle of the night to help him copy books and clean the toilet together." ”

"Didn't I help too?" I didn't start with a stumbling start, my heart was too weak to do it.

"You deserve it, you deserve it!" Cai Yu said hatefully.

"Okay, okay, I can't stop you, the village chief's house has arrived, you pay attention and let go." I stopped, waved and shook it, but Cai Yu hugged him tightly, and I couldn't shake him off my arm.

"We're a pair of 'distressed sisters' now, what's wrong with the intimacy between sisters?" Cai Yucai didn't care about me, as soon as he saw the white lantern hanging outside the village chief's house, he trembled violently.

I had no choice but to go with him.

"Knock knock!" I dragged Cai Yu forward to knock on the door, and after a while, the wooden door was opened from the inside.

"Who are you looking for?" A little girl in a floral cloth dress poked her head out.

"Is this the village chief's house? Let's find Gu Yuancheng, cousin Gu. I asked softly with a smile on my face.

The little girl glanced at me and Cai Yu who were glued together, and hesitantly opened the door to let us in.

"Young Master Gu is drinking tea with our master in the middle hall, I'll take you over."

I secretly pinched Cai Yu's waist, but followed behind the little girl in floral clothes with a friendly smile on my face.

Cai Yu wanted to cry out loudly, but the time and place were wrong, so she could only endure it.

The gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, sooner or later one day he will have to settle Fang Cai's account back!

"Master, someone is looking for Young Master Gu and says it's his cousin." The little girl stepped into the middle hall first and reported to Liu Wen on the main seat.

Liu Wen looked at Gu Yuancheng, who was sitting opposite, "Your cousin is also in our village?" ”

The corners of Gu Yuancheng's mouth twitched, and he nodded expressionlessly.

"Since it's Young Master Gu's cousins, hurry up, let them in." Liu Wen commanded.

"Yes."

Although Posa Village is just a village surrounded by mountains, it is not a rich and noble place, but it is definitely not a poor place, as the village head, the Liu family naturally has a lot of family assets.

From the gate to the nave, there are three arches to pass through, and after the arch is not the nave, you need to step on the small stone bridge that crosses in front of the nave to come to the door of the nave.

However, this "Liu Zhai" can probably get its hands on this façade.

"Cousin." As soon as I saw Gu Yuancheng, I was about to run towards him, but Cai Yu was on the side, so I could only drag him little by little in the direction of Gu Yuancheng.

Gu Yuancheng was originally called "cousin" by this "cousin", but as soon as he saw Cai Yu who was holding my arm, the light in his eyes darkened for a moment.

"Sister Shen." Gu Yuancheng stood up with a smile, walked quickly towards us, and then reached out and covered Cai Yu's hand holding my arm, and pulled it down with a secret force, "Why did you come out so early?" Anyway, it's fine, so why not sleep more? ”

Cai Yu was torn apart, my body and mind were finally relieved, I glanced at Gu Yuancheng gratefully, and replied, "The weather is good today, so I want to go out for a walk with Sister Yu'er." ”

"Today's day is good, tepid." Gu Yuancheng received my grateful gaze, his heart was happy, and he said in agreement, regardless of whether the sun outside was really "tepid and just right".

Cai Yu watched from the sidelines, and the sour taste in his heart was about to come out.

Okay, he is not as good as an outsider if he dares to love his classmates for ten years!

"Cousin, what are you doing at the village chief's house?" I asked him, pretending to be puzzled.

Gu Yuancheng was asked by me like this, and he paused to answer, but Liu Wen took the first step to speak, "There is a big incident in my family, I heard that Young Master Gu is a talent in Beijing, so I asked him to sum it up, if Miss Shen doesn't mind, you can also come and listen to it together." ”

"This ......" I looked at Liu Wen, then at Gu Yuancheng, and finally turned to look at Cai Yu, "Little sister, are you willing to stay and listen?" If not, then my sister will accompany you back. ”

Cai Yu saw that I asked for his opinion, and knew that I was worried about him, and the resentment in my heart finally disappeared a lot.

"No need, since my sister wants to stay, then my sister naturally follows my sister's wishes."
