The old woman pulled the sleeves of Xingzhen's clothes and was inseparable, even following the last toilet. I'm afraid that as soon as I turn around, my "son" will never be recovered.

The old man's reason was simple and crude: "Don't say that I can't see it, even if I can." You are my big man with a handful of and a handful of urine, and there is something my mother has never seen. ”

I couldn't bear to make the old woman sad, but Xingzhen didn't tell the truth.

"It's too late, go to bed early, I'll be with you tomorrow, okay?" Xing Zhen found a lame reason, thinking of tricking the old man to rest first.

However, the old woman pointed to the west wing and said confidently: "Go to sleep, I'll look at my son for a while." ”

The punishment really shoots himself in the foot, and he suffers by himself. The women's boudoir, how can they say that they will go, and they stand in place for a while and don't know what to do.

Seeing that Xingzhen was standing still, the old woman anxiously urged: "If you are sleepy, go to sleep, the west wing is originally a child's room." Why haven't you been home for three years, and you're getting more and more rusty?"

The "son" still didn't move, and the old woman pulled it directly. Xing Zhen was worried that he would hurt the old woman, so he didn't dare to resist hard, so he entered Lan Shanshan's boudoir in a daze after half pushing and half pushing. Halfway through, I didn't forget to pull Pu Gongling with me.

When encountering such a bad friend, the latter is also helpless. Fortunately, Lan Shanshan informed in advance that the room was cleaned up, and the two of them could go to sleep when they were sleepy.

The old woman stopped at the door and said, "Go to sleep, and I won't go in." Remember to throw out the clothes you took off, I'll wash them for you, and dry them overnight. ”

After closing the door, Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling's faces turned pale. The room is indeed tidy and clean, but the belly pocket hangs at the head of the bed and forgets to put it away. The two of them were embarrassed, and they were in someone else's boudoir and couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

The puppy was so excited that it pounced out with a snort. As a result, he was grabbed by Xingzhen, who was quick with his hands and eyes, and rewarded a chestnut with a solid knot.

Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling were like ghosts, turned around and ran out of Lan Shanshan's boudoir. When they came to the courtyard and the breeze was blowing, the two finally took a long breath.

I happened to see Lan Shanshan who was washing clothes in the courtyard, this family is indeed poor. I can't afford to use low-cost soaphorns, so I have to use firewood ash to decontaminate.

In the Sleepy Dragon Continent, most of the decontamination tools used by ordinary people to wash their hair and so on are soaphorns. Wealthy families also use soap horn, but pearl powder is added to it. It is used to wash hair more softly, and laundry is exceptionally clean.

There is really no extra silver tael, so they can only collect the ashes of the burning plants and trees. Or the black ash after burning dry firewood, which is used to clean clothes.

Lan Shanshan sat on the small bench and rubbed it hard, the temperature was hot, her clothes were thin, and she bent over and forced her chest.

The puppy's eyes are hooked, and he can't wait to plunge into the gentle township, and it is worth drowning. Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling have red faces and red ears, and they don't look at indecent people with their eyes, noses, noses, and mouths.

Lan Shanshan saw that the two of them were short of breath and were very puzzled. Raised his head and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said softly: "What's wrong with the two sons, are you embarrassed to take out dirty clothes?" It's okay, I used to wash my father-in-law every day, and I have long been used to it. ”

Lan Shanshan's slender jade hands were covered with water droplets, which flowed down her cheeks when she wiped them, and her better face was a little more refreshing than bathing in water.

The water droplets jump over the neck and converge in the ravine, which is even more reverie. Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling didn't have the slightest heart to study, who was true and who was false in what Lan Shanshan and the old woman said. Just as the young man who was in his prime, the heat in his body was surging and his brain was blank, and he stood on the spot in a daze.

The puppy has read countless children's books, and he has seen the wind and waves. It's not like the embarrassment of the punishment.,Screaming excitedly.。

Fortunately, the puppy didn't bark shy and irritable, and Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling were awakened. The two of them instantly felt a chill down their spines, and their hearts were cold and scared for a while. If this is against people or used by people with intentions, it is too easy to lose a head or a small life.

You look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to say anything about the belly pocket in the boudoir. In order to avoid embarrassment, Pu Gongling, who reacted quickly, hurriedly prevaricated: "It's stuffy in the house, let's come out to breathe."

Lan Shanshan didn't seem to notice the strangeness of the two of them, took out the washed clothes and wrung them out, stretched them out and shook them off the water droplets. After getting up, he walked generously to the drying line in the courtyard, put on his clothes and put them flat.

"It's really hot in the room, so let's find a stool and sit down. My hands are wet, and it is inconvenient to greet the two sons. ”

Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling are like sitting on pins and needles, and it is not impossible to go. sighed that tonight's overnight stay was like walking away in the ghost gate. For no other reason, the clothes that Lan Shanshan was drying were another belly pocket. A pair of mandarin ducks embroidered with bright red satin and a golden silk thread. Everything is clearly visible.

Xing Zhen stabilized his mind and asked calmly: "I have been bothered many times, but I don't know who my mother-in-law's surname is." Miss Lan, can you tell me when her mother-in-law's real son will come back? ”

Lan Shanshan looked back and smiled lightly, sat back in her place and said: "My father-in-law's family name is Tao, my mother-in-law follows her mother's surname, and the neighbors and villagers are called Tao's mother-in-law." ”

"My husband has a single name, and three years ago he said that he wanted to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Despite the opposition of his family, he resolutely took his books and traveled far away. Of course, there is not much money at home, so the minister said that he would solve it by himself. Before leaving, I just brought a few copper plates. It is said that he went south and turned back at the foot of Xianyin Mountain. ”

"The journey back and forth is only about a month. For some reason, Xianggong has been gone for three years and has not returned. The son-in-law and my father-in-law speak in exactly the same voice, and my mother-in-law is blind and can't see clearly, so she can only hear the sound to identify. So I mistakenly thought that the criminal son was the conscienceless husband of my family. ”

Lan Shanshan complained: "When I was at home, I only knew how to read, and I didn't know how to feed poultry and do farm work. It was all supported by me and my mother-in-law, and I regretted marrying a useless scholar at that time. The only hope is that one day I can gain fame and take my mother-in-law and me to live a good life. ”

"It's okay now, I don't know if I'm dead or alive after three years of walking, and I missed the imperial examination of Cailuan Country. The imperial examination is held once every five years, and this year has just passed, and even if the prince returns, it will have to wait until five years later. ”

Lan Shanshan's years of grievances and distress came to her heart along with the words. Inadvertently, a pair of crystal tears hung in the corners of his eyes. The refreshing woman like a hibiscus out of the water is more and more moving.

His mind was unusually firm, and he raised his head and said word by word: "I decided to look for Xianggong, I want to see people and corpses." You can't be so innocent and leave me and my mother-in-law here. ”

Pu Gongling wiped his cold sweat and persuaded: "Miss Lan, don't be sad, Tao Gongzi Ji has his own natural appearance." Maybe when you get up early tomorrow morning, you can see him coming back with the rising sun. ”

Lan Shanshan was full of anticipation, and wanted to look into the distance and sighed: "Hey, I dream day and night, but dreams are dreams after all." ”

Observing the delicate Xingzhen, he found that Lan Shanshan's hands were as white as snow, and there were no calluses from doing farm work. If you ask directly, you will seem suspicious that people are not polite.

He knocked on the side and asked, "Miss Hardship, this family is now supported by you alone." My mother-in-law has bad eyes and definitely can't work. I don't know what Miss Lan relies on for a living, and she has persevered for so long. "

Lan Shanshan did not hide it, and said bluntly: "Half a year after the father-in-law left, my mother-in-law washed her face with tears all day long. I finally cried and dried my tears and lost my sight, and I was a weak woman, unable to take care of the crops, nor had the energy to raise poultry in captivity. I had to do some embroidery work, make some wallets, sachets and stuff, and ......"

The woman slumped and spat out a look of wanting to speak, and couldn't help but feel a little pity. The cheeks, which were already stained with water, were flushed as if they could drip water.

Lowering his head and pointing to the red belly pocket that had just been dried, he whispered in an inaudible voice: "That, that pair of mandarin ducks were embroidered by myself, and I took them to the county town and sold them to the wives of large families." They all liked it and the price was reasonable. ”

"Fart, fart, nonsense, it's me who plays cotton to support myself. You vixen don't talk nonsense in my house anymore, you still embroider, do you know how to thread a needle?" Granny Tao, who heard the conversation outside, walked out of the room trembling after scolding.

When he came to Xing Zhen's side, he pulled the young man's sleeve and urged: "Go into the house and talk to your mother, don't be bewitched by the fox spirit here." Tomorrow I will go to the county town to sue the officials, and I must drive the vixen out of my house. ”

Xing Zhen comforted in a low voice: "The old man is angry, don't be angry." ”

"Don't call the old man, call the mother. Granny Tao never forgot to let Xingzhen change her words, and at the same time pulled Xingzhen into the room.

Lan Shanshan looked at the disappearing back and looked up at the sky helplessly. He whispered, "Pu Gongzi, can you please do me a favor?"

Pu Gongling readily agreed: "Miss Lan, please speak." ”

Lan Shanshan twisted slightly, lowered her voice and said, "It's getting late, and I don't dare to go to my friend's house to stay alone. I'm afraid of making my mother-in-law angry at home, can I trouble Pu Gongzi to give me a ride?"

Pu Gongling didn't think much about it, and agreed to come down in one bite. The night was dark, and the roar of wild beasts could be heard in the distance, making the night seem particularly terrifying.

Lan Shanshan's body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously approached the Changran man beside her. The upper and lower teeth chattered and rattled.

The slender jade hand was raised several times, wanting to grab the corner of the man next to him. The idea that men and women are not intimate is serious, and Lan Shanshan finally did not have the courage to grab the corners of her clothes and be courageous.

In summer, the clothes are thin, and the whole body is cool after being frightened. The pale arm sometimes touched the man next to him, shy but yearning for the heat of the strong arm. At first unintentionally, then intentionally.

Pu Gongling, a martial artist in the Four Realms, has a perception far better than ordinary people. clearly felt the movements of the women around him, and did not avoid or deliberately cater to them. Pretending to be unconscious, he continued to walk next to the woman.

In particular, the touch between the arms is smooth and delicate, warm and refreshing. Changing to other men must be extremely enjoyable. Pu Gongling complained bitterly in his heart, it turned out that walking with a woman was like walking with a beast.

Lan Shanshan asked without a match: "Where is Childe going?"

Pu Gongling replied stubbornly: "All the way to the south, you will pass the Xianyin Mountain that the girl just said." ”

Lan Shanshan raised her head suddenly, her watery eyes were full of expectation, and she asked in a low voice, "Can the two sons take me with me, I want to find my father-in-law." “

It hurts too much to refuse directly, and Pu Gongling doesn't want to take such a woman on the road together. euphemistically: "If the girl leaves, who will take care of Granny Tao." Besides, there are thousands of roads, what if you staggered with your father-in-law?"

There was no answer, only the sound of the woman choking and sobbing beside her.

Pu Gongling was silent.

At the end of the courtyard, Xing Zhen begged Granny Tao to help take away the belly pocket in the boudoir. Granny Tao was very happy about this, and even claimed: "Yes, yes, yes, the fox spirit must not have a good heart." Her stuff was just thrown away. ”

On a dire day, Xing Zhen and Pu Gongling found that sleeping was also a very happy thing. But I haven't forgotten the habit of getting up early, and seeing that the Tao family was quiet, I helped prepare breakfast first.

It stands to reason that Granny Tao is an old man, and she often gets up at night and does not have the habit of sleeping lazy. When breakfast was ready, the mother-in-law still didn't go out, and the two couldn't help but wonder.

I came to the east wing and knocked on the door to ask for a long time, but there was no answer in the room.

Xing Zhenhu wondered: "Could it be that Granny Tao is not in the room?"

Pu Gongling was also puzzled and said, "Push open the door and take a look." ”

The door was opened, and I saw Granny Tao lying on the bed facing the west wing, with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth. His eyes were closed and his breath was gone, and the old man was peaceful and content.
