Chapter 1117: I've Been Waiting for You for a Long, Long Time......
"Uncle......"
The little hand was clenched by a big hand, and Xiaohuan's body trembled, turned around, and looked at him stupidly.
In the past, when they were in Liuye Village, they went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, hunt rabbits, catch pheasants, and when she couldn't walk down the mountain, her uncle would carry her on her back, and when she fell asleep listening to stories, her uncle would carry her back to her room to sleep...... and my uncle had not held her hand for a long, long time.
Li Yi looked at her hand, the originally slender and white fingers had scratches, smooth nails, and many small frayed chips.
Li Yi took her hand with two hands and said softly, "Why are you so stupid......"
Her eyes bent again, two dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth, and she whispered: "Uncle, Xiaohuan is not stupid, Xiaohuan is willing." ”
Li Yi pulled her over, let her sit on his lap, took her into his arms, and said softly: "It's all uncle......
A little panic appeared on Xiaohuan's face, and he hurriedly said, "Uncle is the best for Xiaohuan......
Even Li Yi herself felt that she was not a thing, she ignored her during this time, she was still defending him at this time, and said that she was not stupid, Li Yi scratched her nose and said, "Go, my uncle will cook longevity noodles for you." ”
A bright light flashed in Xiaohuan's bright big eyes, and then his nose was sour: "Uncle still remembers......"
"Gone......"
Li Yi took her hand and walked towards the small kitchen.
A long, long time ago, when he was not a county lieutenant, not a county marquis, not a doctor of Jin Ziguanglu, or not King Jing, what he had to do every day was nothing more than teaching, cooking, and teasing the little girl......
At that time, he was not so familiar with Ruyi, and he was not so familiar with Ruyi, and the only person who could talk every day was Xiaohuan.
Together with the bear children, she would listen to him tell him stories about three dozen white bone spirits in the school, and after school, help him wash and chop vegetables, even if she couldn't do anything, she would dangle to the side and listen to him tell those strange things......
The recipe for longevity noodles is very simple, noodles, vegetables, eggs, all Xiaohuan can do is to make a fire, and her favorite thing to do is to make a fire.
She sat by the stove, looked at it, and said, "Uncle, it's enough to put one egg, I can't eat two ......"
"How can there be a reason to put an egg in longevity noodles, you must put two, one can't be more, and one can't be less......" Li Yi didn't look back and continued to be busy.
An interested expression appeared on the little girl's face, and she asked, "Uncle, why is this?" ”
Li Yi explained: "This is exquisite, two eggs represent good things in pairs......"
The little girl's eyes began to show a light of worship again: "Uncle knows so much......"
Xiaohuan's daily worship of him should have been slowly accumulated from the strange things he heard from him every day at that time in Liuye Village......
Time seems to go back to six or seven years ago, it was a more cramped and dilapidated kitchen than here, Li Yi now recalls, his hesitation and confusion when he first came to this world, probably in such a small place, in the little girl's chirping and startling, slowly disappeared......
Today's moonlight is still bright, and there are many lanterns hanging in the courtyard, so it doesn't look so dim.
Li Yi and Xiaohuan were sitting in the courtyard, and the longevity noodles in a small bowl in front of her were still steaming.
Xiaohuan picked up the chopsticks, thought about it and put it down, ran into the kitchen quickly, and walked in with a bowl again.
Seeing that she was about to divide the noodles in the bowl, Li Yi hurriedly stopped: "Longevity noodles can't be divided, if you divide them, you won't live long." ”
Xiaohuan shook his head and said, "It's not interesting for Xiaohuan to live a long life alone, Xiaohuan wants to live a long life with his uncle......"
In some things, if Xiaohuan is stubborn, Li Yi can't persuade him.
He didn't insist anymore, and Xiaohuan gave him half of the noodles and gave him a poached egg.
A bowl of noodles is not much, for Li Yi, it is a matter of two or three bites, but she eats very slowly, chewing carefully with each bite.
Li Yi smiled and asked, "How does it taste?" ”
She nodded and said, "As long as it's my uncle's cooking, it's delicious." ”
Only Xiaohuan thinks so, a bowl of ordinary longevity noodles, what flowers can he cook, maybe it is slightly inferior to the current Ruyi.
Syllable!
Li Yi watched her eat noodles, and in the dark night, a fire suddenly crossed the night sky, and then exploded, and the fire trees and silver flowers turned into stars in the sky.
Xiaohuan was startled, put down the bowl and turned around, and after being stunned for a moment, he pointed to the sky in the distance and said happily: "Uncle, uncle, look, someone is setting off fireworks!" ”
Xiaohuan is very happy, Ruyi City is in the mountains, because she is worried about causing a mountain fire, even if it is the New Year's holiday, fireworks are prohibited, this is the first time she has seen fireworks here.
With the first explosion, a stream of fire shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire Ruyi City as if it were day.
There are certain safety hazards in the mountains when fireworks are set off, and for this fireworks show, Li Yi specially cleared a square.
In recent years, Jingguo's research on gunpowder has made great progress, and fireworks have also been played with a variety of tricks.
From Li Yi's point of view, when the fire was extinguished, the little maid was in the depths of this fireworks, and the flickering fireworks reflected her pretty face more beautifully.
This is the first large-scale fireworks in Ruyi City, countless people in the city walked out of their homes, came to the courtyard, the street, looked at the night sky in the distance, and after a short period of stunned, they began to cheer and shout......
The entire Ruyi City became boiling at this moment.
The fireworks lasted for a quarter of an hour before they gradually went out, and above the night sky, only the words "Fushou Kangning" remained, which did not disperse for a long time.
Xiaohuan looked at those four words, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, looking at Li Yi, his eyes were moist, and his lips opened, "Uncle......"
Li Yi walked over, helped her wipe away the tears on her face, and said with a smile: "Don't cry, everyone is waiting for you......"
"Everybody......"
Ruyi and Ruyi walked in from outside the hospital, Ruyi hugged her, touched her head, and said, "Our little ring has grown up......"
Miss Liu Er gave her a sword, which was tailor-made for her, and it also had her name on it.
The Li family practices martial arts, and Xiaohuan is no exception, there are so many masters to teach, don't look at her looking weak, like Li Xuan's three-legged cat kung fu, she can hang up and fight.
Xiaocui and Xiaozhu also sent gifts, and the three of them are now like sisters, so naturally it is impossible to fall.
Even Li Duan had a gift, it was a small person he cut with a knife, although he couldn't tell that it was a small person, but it was also his heart......
People inside and outside Ruyi City may not know who is born on March 21, but they will always remember this day.
Because every year on March 21, there will be a grand fireworks show in Ruyi City, which has virtually become a tradition in Ruyi City.
That night, they made a late fuss in the room, and by the time Xiaozhu Xiaocui and the others left, Xiaohuan had already fallen asleep on the table.
Li Yi walked into the room, gently picked her up, and when he walked to the bedside, he hadn't put her down yet, and saw the little girl's eyelashes flutter slightly.
Li Yi didn't put her down, just hugged her and sat on the edge of the bed.
He looked down at her for a long time before he reached her ear and whispered, "If I don't wake up, I'm leaving......"
Xiaohuan's eyes opened immediately, his face turned red with shame, and he whispered, "Uncle......"
Li Yi hugged her tightly, and Xiaohuan said in a lower voice: "Uncle, can you stay for a while......
Li Yi kissed her lightly on the forehead and said softly, "I won't leave today......
He noticed the body in his arms tremble.
Xiaohuan looked up at him, and a mist quickly appeared in his eyes.
She hugged Li Yi tightly, leaned her head on her shoulder, and choked up: "Uncle, Xiaohuan ......, Xiaohuan has been waiting for you for a long, long time......"
