Chapter 106: It's going to rain
The three of them walked on the village road, the night wind struck, occasionally two dogs barked, and three or two words shuttled through the cracks in the front and back of the village.
The villagers were shocked when they thought about such a big thing as the fire.
"I didn't mean to." Lai Lian suddenly came over, raised his head, and said to Chen Ping, "Who knew that the bamboo would burst open, my hands are really hot." ”
It turned out that it was because of this incident, no wonder he didn't speak from the time he left the hospital. Is this a reversal of direction? The head was high, but the tone of the expression seemed a little aggrieved.
"I'll see." This burn will be fine, but if there is a scar, it is not beautiful after all, Chen Ping held Lai Lian's palm, "It's okay, in a few days, this red spot will fade." ”
There were no blisters on it, just a few red dots.
"My grandfather is in a hurry, but that's not for you." Not to mention, this little hand is quite soft, Chen Ping saw that Lai Lian was still looking at him aggrievedly, and comforted, "You should know that there are many thatched houses in this village, and if the fire starts, the whole village will suffer." On this big winter day, the house is gone, where do you let them sleep? ”
"I have a house in the county, so I can live in it." Lai Lian Dao.
"That's true, but don't you say it, it's your family. This house is gone, so it has to be rebuilt? Where to go for that money? We are all a group of ordinary people, running the land, and the assets of the whole village together are probably not as many as your family. Lai Lian's concept is still based on his home for comparison, and he has no big concept of Wenqian, and Chen Ping didn't make any effort to explain, "The weather is dry in winter, and the fire can't be played." Next time, it's okay to pay attention. ”
"That Xiao Anzi is also playing with the bamboo stick, why didn't your grandpa say anything about him?" Lai Lian Dao.
"Wait, it's going to be soon." There seemed to be some sounds coming from the wind, Chen Ping thought it was Wangcai, but when he listened carefully, it came from the direction of his own house, which was very familiar, "Don't talk, listen carefully." ”
Lai Lian and Chen Ya both stopped, looked at Chen Ping suspiciously, and after a while, the sound in the wind seemed to be louder and sharper, falling into the ears of the three of them.
"Kill you kid and set you on fire at night." This is Chen Xiaoyi, angry and ruined, listening to the tone, he should still be holding something in his hand.
"Ahh snorted in pain, the bamboo strip or branch should have been whipped on Chen An's body, choked up, and was also aggrieved, "I didn't put this fire, grandpa, if you don't dare to hit that little madman, come and beat me." ”
"She is the daughter of the father-in-law, where do I dare to beat her. You kid, I'll be left alone. Chen Xiaoyi seemed to be using Chen An as a scapegoat, "Let you play with that bamboo, if it weren't for you, would the girl be able to follow?" ”
This is true, but Chen An will give in like this? This guy is accustomed to shifting targets, why is Chen Ping's heart a little blocked.
"That's Brother, Brother said those words, the little madman followed to play with the bamboo." Sure enough, Chen An's voice had not yet grown, and his voice was sharp, as usual, pushing Chen Ping out and blocking him.
Chen Ping was speechless, what kind of brother could he do this. When I looked back at Xia Lian, I saw that Lai Lian's gaze was no longer so aggrieved, and there was a sense of originality.
Well, it seems that this fire is still his own fault.
"Wait, when your brother comes back, I'm still going to fight." Chen Xiaoyi shouted, and pulled out some of Chen Ping's past problems, which broke out together, "I can't learn in the township, and this prey is not sold, and the backyard is tidy...... This stove ......"
The wind gradually became stronger, and there was a moist smell in the air, and the face, which could still be seen clearly, immediately blurred.
Chen Ping looked up and saw that the half-hidden moon had disappeared into the black clouds, and even the starlight was hidden.
"It's going to rain."
When the village heard those words, Lai Lian immediately got rid of the aggrieved look, and pulled Chen Ya into the courtyard.
After all, he was still a child, thinking about the mentality when he shook hands, Chen Ping shook his head, feeling guilty.
"However, at this time, the development of the girl is still quite early." Chen Ping suddenly said such a sentence as a ghost.
Since that night, Chen Ping's hormone secretion has become more and more vigorous. If you go on like this, I don't know if you'll make some mistakes.
After Aunt Wang closed the courtyard door, Chen Ping turned around and went home, stopped in front of the courtyard gate for a few breaths, and organized his words, which was to push the door open.
Chen Xiaoyi also took advantage of the fire in the hall to weave a steamer, looking like that, it would be half an hour later, and it would be done, seeing Chen Ping come in, Chen Xiaoyi raised his eyes, pinched a thin piece of bamboo, folded it, and pressed his thumb into the gap on the side.
"This steamer is the last one." Chen Ping walked over, Grandpa's posture should not be the tranquility before the storm, "That small steamer can still be used, and I will bring you a meal at noon tomorrow." ”
"When you deliver food, I will starve to death in that field." Chen Xiaoyi finally opened his mouth and said, "I don't think there's much flour, and you can get it all later, and make more steamed cakes tomorrow." I'll take more in the morning, and you won't have to give it at noon. ”
Chen An, this kid, came out of the corner with a basin of hot water, his hair scattered, and stayed quietly on the side for a while, looking like he had something to say.
"When you wash your body, you go into the house, what are you doing standing here?" Chen Xiaoyi roared, and he was not polite to his little one.
People say that people are soft-spoken, but this person's small words are also very light, and the little lady has not yet spoken smoothly, and this Chen An has become the object of anger.
"Grandpa, Brother is back." Chen An said a nonsense, as if reminding.
"I'm not blind, I can see." Continuing to weave the steamer in his hand, Chen Xiaoyi didn't move.
A little anxious, Chen An was wearing a pair of small pants, and there was some flesh on his body, life is indeed good these days, and his body was just washed with warm water, but it was not cold: "That fire was put by my brother, didn't you say that you would beat him?" ”
What kind of mentality is this kid? Chen Ping's eyes immediately slanted. Seeing this, Chen An ran away, rushed into the west room, and closed the door.
"Alright, don't chase him. Steward Lu also told me that he would leave tomorrow and take the girl of the county government. Chen Xiaoyi shouted to Chen Ping, who was about to rush to find Chen An, and said, "Go and reconcile that side." ”
Leaving tomorrow? That's a little too fast, isn't it? Could it be that Grandpa just said something to Lu Xingyong? However, according to Chen Ping's understanding of his grandfather's temperament, he should not be able to say it.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Chen Ping asked, this should have been decided, then Lai Lian didn't know, would he go with him tomorrow?
"After staying here for a while, it's time to go back." On the bed board, Lu Xingyong was half-lying, and when he saw Chen Ping, he smiled and said, "Look at this day, it should rain tomorrow." If you don't leave, I'm afraid it will have to drag on for a while. The first day is coming, and there are still some things to deal with in the house. ”
