In the second year of Zhenguan, there was a great drought in Beijing, locusts rose everywhere, overwhelming, some people said that it was born by drought, some people said that it was the wrath of the locust god, and there were altars of worship everywhere, Liu Xu couldn't figure it out, why people were going to starve to death, or they didn't dare to eat those worship offerings, a group of people looked at the sky with gray faces, chapped lips and mud legs, and the lone locusts jumped out one or two from time to time and fell to the ground, and people avoided it far away, lest they anger the heavens.

Liu Xu couldn't care about others, so while others weren't paying attention, he stretched out his hand and quickly took a few full stomachs, huh? Today I was lucky, there were hot steamed buns here. The big night also came to worship, it seems that the family is rich, looked up and looked, no one, and stretched out his hand, and waited until the fourth shot, the offerings on the table, it was gone, only ten years old, his hands were too small, he couldn't grasp so much, all of them were stuffed into the bad, standing up a little trembling, shaking, and his heart was solid again, this thing can be used for the two brothers and sisters for a few days.

Liu Xu actually wanted to see how Li Er swallowed locusts, but when he saw the groups of patrol soldiers with sticks, his heart shrank back, although Li Er's show was good-looking, but compared to the life of himself and his sister, forget it.

The indoctrination workshop is very close to Qujiang Pond, of course, at this time it is still called Furong Garden, compared with other places, Liu Xu feels that this place has a benefit, that is, clean, in the year of the great disaster and famine, what is the most feared, in addition to starvation, that is, disease, locust plague past, there will be no plague or the like, Liu Xu thinks it will be incredible.

Put the steamed buns away, take a clay pot, fetch water, and never allow yourself and your sister to contract any disease at such a young age, at this time there is no money, illness is death, all day long, you have to touch the forehead of the little girl several times to see if there are any signs of wrong.

Take the boiling water and wash the fruit, it is estimated that Liu Xu can do it, as soon as the fruit enters, it is almost wilted, but it doesn't matter, at this time, a full stomach is the key, and the steamed bun gently removed the upper layer of skin, although the little girl's eyes were very pitiful, looking at herself as if she was a heinous villain, but Liu Xu still did it meticulously.

"Okay, eat, remember, eat at this time, if you don't want to have diarrhea, then you must be clean, you can't drink the water in the river, God knows what's in it, those women in the fireworks field, the water for washing their faces and feet is poured into it, my God, can you drink that water? Let's just drink the well water, isn't it very sweet, at most a few steps. ”

Nagging in her mouth, the little girl can't wait for a long time, pitiful, such a young age, in the next life, it is the innocent period of the bear child, and the school can turn the sky upside down, isn't it to save a child who climbed into the water pipe and fell down? That kid fell on himself, it should be fine, right?

Thinking a little too much, eating is naturally slow, the little girl is young, the amount of food is not small, a big steamed bun a few times on the stomach, after eating, the eyes gurgling, touching the stomach, want to eat another one, and seem to be reluctant, and finally made a lot of determination, gently pinched a corner, a mouthful of stuffed in, and then put the rest in the crockpot. His eyes were closed, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it.

"Hehe, eat, come, brother, this is for you to eat, what to do when you save it, don't talk about farming, there is no harvest, after eating, my brother will find chicken for you to eat tomorrow!"

Liu Xu's eyes are a little moist, the little girl is very sensible, although she is supporting him, but everything at home, everything is done by her, she is running outside to find food, she will clean at home, and then wash clothes, all done by this girl.

The little girl shook her head, looked up at Liu Xu, and turned out a fruit from it and stuffed it into Liu Xu's hand.

"Brother.. Eat more and have strength. ”

Liu Xu's eyes are moist even more, can the girl speak? This is half a year since she came to Datang, the first time this girl has spoken, although Liu Xu was an orphan in his previous life, but what he was most afraid of was loneliness, and the most idle thing was his mouth, God gave him an extremely cheerful personality and extremely good memory, otherwise, he would not be able to be the head teacher of the best class in the first middle school at a young age.

"Can you talk? Huh...."

Liu Xu smirked, after half a year of getting along, he had long regarded this little girl who fished herself out of the river as his own sister, and he always thought that this child was a mute, but today he actually spoke?

I was so happy that I went around the house, and then I rummaged through the crockpots inside, except for the fruits or fruits, only to find out that Niang Laozi, where is there wine to drink to celebrate.

"Xiaoya, you wait, my brother will go out and come back soon, Xiaoya can speak, how can you not eat something good to celebrate? Hey. ”

The fool ran out like this, and even threw the steamed bun in his hand on the ground without finding it, the little girl didn't understand what Liu Xu wanted to do, but the steamed bun on the ground still picked it up, patted the dust, and seemed to think of something, and was extremely reluctant to remove the layer that had been stained, and then put it up satisfied.

For Liu Xu to go crazy, the little girl doesn't care, this cheap brother likes to talk nonsense when he has nothing to do, sometimes he pats his little head, and then lies there looking at the stars, he can say a lot of inexplicable words, so it's been half a year, and he hasn't found anything big wrong, so the little girl is used to it.

The indoctrination workshop is so close to the Furong Garden, but Liu Xu is still the first time to set foot on this land of fireworks, no matter when, the Qinglou will never be closed, such as today, the students who have been running outside for a day like to come here, boasting about their achievements and studies, talking about how they appease the homeless, how they persuade the people, chattering, noisy, even outside, they can hear it clearly.

Although Liu Xu's linen clothes have been patched several times, they are finally clean, and at this time they can enter the Qinglou by wearing such clothes, because some families also wear such clothes, they go to the homeless places outside the city, and deliberately wear tattered, making themselves more close to the people, of course, there is more reason, I heard that the queen's eldest grandson Niangniang also wears patched clothes, which is amazing. Therefore, as long as the body is clean, wearing such a tattered body, it is extremely easy to enter this green building.

"Read the words of the sage, talk about the work of education, ask for a fair lady, enjoy the gentle hometown, Yun Yan lady, you are in the ring, but it has been a month, saying that it is to be one for character, two for poetry, now when it comes to character, in the face of this catastrophe, I am busy for the world, it is not bad, so now, it is time to study poetry?"

The person at the bottom was fanning a small goose feather fan, dressed like Zhuge Liang, but his eyes were shining and staring straight at the woman behind the bead curtain on the second floor, like a hungry wolf, Liu Xu was speechless.

"It's extreme, Yun Yan's lady, it's not good to always hang us, right?"

This is very straightforward, when he saw someone, Liu Xu almost didn't laugh, this piece of beard, is also called a genius?

"Giggles... Since you Langjun have already been gearing up, let's start, let's say okay, the slave family was born as a daughter, and can neither go into battle to kill the enemy, nor can govern the country and the country, so you can only do your best, the money obtained these days, in the end, you still have to bother you Langjun to help, for the slave family to the poor people outside, a bowl of gruel. ”

A group of women in Yingying Yanyan, led by Yun Yan, are naturally called that Yun Yan, wearing a light green dress, a small bun on her head, and a bead hairpin slanted into it, swaying slowly, at a glance, Liu Xu feels that this is really a big beauty who can support a green building, but now he can't enjoy this, the people below are screaming and calling to start quickly, Liu Xu also feels that he should hurry, because he saw a little maid coming over with a plate to ask for money, and the one who wants it is above board, and there is no one in his eyes, who is more robber than a robber, Seeing that he was about to come to his side, he couldn't get the money, so he had to go through the gang for a while. I still hurriedly finished the poem, and took the money to buy delicious food. It's also my luck, I was going to come in to cheat some food and drink and pack it back, and now I still have money to take, so naturally it's good money, this thing can be saved, and the delicious food can be put in this hot day for a few days?

The woman nodded slightly, and a silver bell struck gently, which meant that it began, and the little maid who collected the money was about to come to her, Liu Xu took care of him three seven twenty-one, and stood out directly.

"Ahem, Yun Yan lady, right, contemptible Liu Xu, there is a little poem, if you don't make a big show, just want to have fun, how about throwing bricks and attracting jade first?"

The little lady who collected the money was glaring, this kid hasn't seen it, whose Lang Jun is it? Seeing that it was time for this guy to give money, he rushed out like this? The little maid looked at Liu Xu with some suspicion in her eyes, she always felt that something was wrong with this kid, but it was not good to go up and let people give money at this time, right? Forget it, it's time for a poem anyway, and I'll collect other people's money first.

Seeing the servant girl leave, Liu Xu's heart calmed down a little, Nima, that little look is really wrong, he used to be a teacher, such a fare evasion behavior is very helpless, but then he has to steal poems, which is even more helpless, Amitabha, immeasurable Tianzun, you can be forgiven, for life, it is not easy.

"Flutter, Xiao Langjun, it's good to want to do something for the people, but you don't need to go to Yunyan here, these Langjun are fighting for the guests of the slave family, you? ....”

This Yun Yan lady's words understood, and everyone laughed, pointed at Liu Xu, and almost laughed. Liu Xu was stunned, and then his face was full of embarrassment, the ten-year-old little doll went to the Qinglou? This is not much different from the eunuch, at this time, I understand why the servant girl sees herself like this, she is embarrassed to go home, but this has come out, where is there a reason to retreat, not to mention, the real money on the platform is too tempting for Liu Xu to be poor for so long, so his body is upright and his neck is stalked.

"Fengyue is so old and young, it's just a good thing, who cares about the strength and weakness of the battlefield, it's just a talent! I am rich in poetry and books, and I want to say that I know more about this wind and moon than you do..."
