Although Xiao Tian wore out several pairs of shoes, he also practiced a good pair of foot strength, so that he underestimated the degree of carrying a delicate young woman and a four-year-old baby.

Although he was really impatient later, he carried Le Yao on his back, but with Xue Shuiwu with him, he still couldn't get up quickly. Ye Xiaotian wanted to help her, but Xue Shuiwu refused to accept it on the grounds that men and women were not close.

Ye Xiaotian was helpless, so he picked up a branch and gave her a crutch, which only reduced the pain of her rushing to the mountain, but it was still not much faster, so that when the three of them went around to the official road west of Jingzhou, it was almost dusk.

Ye Xiaotian said: "Let's find a place to rest, rest for one night first, and then hurry tomorrow." ”

Although Xue Shuiwu's body is as weak as grass, her personality is as tenacious as grass, and blood blisters have been ground out on her feet, but she didn't dare to say it, for fear that because she had dragged down the itinerary, she had been gritting her teeth and working hard, and she was already in pain, and she was relieved when she heard Ye Xiaotian say this.

This place is still in Jingzhou, Ye Xiaotian does not dare to borrow from the villagers, in this era, the population flow is very small, as long as there is a family in a village, it will not be long before the whole village will know, if the Yang family sends someone to visit here, it will reveal his traces.

It was Ye Xiaotian who did not enter the village, and looked around in the dim sunset, and saw that there was a dilapidated land temple on the edge of the paddy field outside the village entrance, which looked like there was incense from the dilapidated appearance, and there was no one at the entrance of the village, so he said: "Let's go, let's go there and rest." ”

The land temple is not big, the mountain gate has long been demolished by whose house as a chopping wood, a hollow portal, the mud tire of the land lord inside is watered by the rain on the top of the ruined temple roof, as if it has melted and can no longer see the shape.

There used to be a temple blessing in this temple, but now it is naturally gone. Ye Xiaotian went inside to look around, and saw that a clay couch was still intact, and the stove was there, but the cauldron on the top was broken, and only half of it was left, but fortunately it was not taken away by the villagers.

Ye Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, let's rest here tonight, the two of you will sleep on the couch, and I will make peace at this table for one night." He pressed the offering table, which was made of earth and stone, built in front of the idol and strong enough to bear the weight of a man.

Le Yao was carried by Ye Xiaotian along the way, and he was already familiar with him. Le Yao has not been in contact with many outsiders, because he is very affectionate to Ye Xiaotian, and he is a brother, and he is called sweet. As soon as she got off Ye Xiaotian's back, she said coquettishly: "Brother, people are hungry." ”

Not only is she hungry, Ye Xiaotian is also hungry now, her chest is pressed against her back, and her hunger burns her heart. Xue Shuiwu didn't cry out that she was hungry, but her stomach rumbled a few times at the right time, which made this shy little woman blush.

Ye Xiaotian said: "You two stay in the temple, don't go out, so as not to be seen, I'll go to the village to get some food." ”

"Hmm!"

The two women, one big and one small, nodded together, their expressions and movements were exactly the same.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The sun sank little by little at the end of the mountain in the ardent expectation of Xue Shuiwu's mother and daughter, and the last ray of sunshine disappeared. The moon crept up as they waited anxiously. Le Yao nestled hungrily in his mother's arms, and his eyes that were originally full of hope gradually dimmed.

It was completely dark, Le Yao raised his little face weakly, and said to Xue Shuiwu worriedly: "Big brother doesn't want us anymore, why hasn't he come back?" ”

Xue Shuiwu opened her mouth, but did not speak, she just gently hugged her daughter, put her face on her face, and looked at the dark night outside the temple gate, in addition to helplessness and sadness, there was also a touch of melancholy that could not be understood.

"I'm back, where are you?"

A figure sneakily entered the Land Temple and whispered.

"It's big brother!"

Le Yao jumped up, his eyes lit up, as if he had seen a puppy with meat buns, and happily pounced towards the black shadow, Xue Shuiwu also stood up excitedly, and rushed out two steps unwillingly, only then did she stand suddenly, but her worried heart suddenly became steady.

The firewood and firewood can be picked up casually, and the stove is ready-made, as for the pot, I have to use the half of the broken pot and tilt it over to use, but fortunately, the pot is big enough to still stew things. Next to the paddy field, there is a diversion canal on the side of the paddy field, the clear water is murmuring, and it is taken directly, so a fat goose sheds its feathers and goes to the pot.

In order to make the meat as good as possible, Ye Xiaotian opened the burden of the clothes, soaked it and spread it on the broken pot as a lid, the aroma of meat finally floated out, and the three of them squatted by the stove, although only Le Yao swallowed his saliva unabashedly, but Ye Xiaotian and Xue Shuiwu's eyes never left the pot.

Hearing Le Yao's stomach gurgling from time to time, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but say, "Yaoyao, if you are too hungry, eat a piece of white potato to cushion your stomach first." ”

On the way back, Ye Xiaotian also dug up a few pieces of white potatoes, washed them crisp and raw, and they were very sweet, but the three of them didn't eat much.

"Oh!"

Le Yao agreed, swallowed his saliva hard, and looked at the pot with blank eyes: "Brother, when will this meat be cooked, people haven't eaten meat for a long, long time." ”

Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian's heart trembled slightly as if a string had been swept by the wind. Xue Shuiwu pityingly swept the silk of her daughter's sideburns behind her ears, and said softly: "The fragrance is coming out, and the meat is almost cooked." ”

"Oh!"

Le Yao had already found a piece of white potato in his arms, and when he heard this, he put it back, seeing her cute appearance, Ye Xiaotian and Xue Shuiwu couldn't help but smile at each other, just looking at each other, Ye Xiaotian's eyes couldn't help but be a little obsessed.

Encountering Ye Xiaotian's undisguised burning gaze, Xue Shuiwu hurriedly lowered her head, the firelight reflected her face, which was originally slightly pale, but at this time, there was a red firelight, but it was a little coquettish. Gradually, the face became more and more red under Ye Xiaotian's gaze, pretty, like the legendary little fox fairy.

At night, the silence was unusual, it was pitch black all around, only a jumping fire in front of them, and the sound of dry wood coming out of the stove from time to time "clicked", which made it more and more quiet in all directions.

Ye Xiaotian's scorching gaze was extremely aggressive, and her undisguised appreciation made Xue Shuiwu slightly annoyed, she suddenly stood up, pretended to make the bed, and walked towards the earthen kang in the next room.

Ye Xiaotian pulled his gaze back from her slender little waist and saw that Le Yao was looking at him curiously, his lacquer-like eyes were extremely pure.

Although Ye Xiaotian knew that she was too young to understand the **naked** in her eyes when she stared at her mother, she still couldn't help but have a hot face. When there are two people, you can only **, and when there are many people, you can only **, there is a difference between being cheeky and being shameless.

"Ahem! I'm just thinking about a poem, Water Dance, can you write a poem? Ye Xiaotian could only interrupt in a sneering manner.

Le Yao hugged the little skirt, tilted his head to think about it carefully, and shook his head vigorously: "No, my mother said that she would teach me to compose poetry when I grew up, but I know a lot of stories, many, many things, all of them were told to me by my mother, do you want to listen to my brother?" ”

Ye Xiaotian touched her head and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll listen to you tell you the story when I go back, so do you want to listen to the poems I made?" ”

Xue Shuiwu bent over as if she was laying out her clothes, as if she hadn't listened to what they were saying, but her movements slowed down significantly, and her face turned slightly sideways.

Ye Xiaotian coughed and said in a rambling voice: "Goose goose goose, cut the curve with a knife, pluck the feathers and add a scoop of water, light the fire and cover the pot!" ”

Xue Shuiwu snorted, couldn't help laughing, and then hurriedly held back, but through the reflection of the firelight, she could still faintly see her shoulders shaking, and her face must have turned red.

Le Yao laughed "giggled", clapped his hands and said: "I heard my mother say this poem, it's not the same as what my brother said, but it's still good what my brother said, hehe." ”

Xue Shuiwu couldn't help but laugh and walked back, and said to Le Yao: "Brother teasing you, this is only a dozen oil poems at best." Okay, don't show your front teeth when you laugh, how did my mother tell you? Girls have to laugh without showing their teeth. ”

Le Yao quickly closed his mouth, Ye Xiaotian couldn't get used to it, and said, "She's still young, don't be so particular." ”

Xue Shuiwu said seriously: "The rules should be established from an early age, otherwise there will be no rules when they are big." ”

Ye Xiaotian disagreed, and muttered to himself: "In the end, it is a big family, and even concubines are so particular." ”

A pot of goose meat was finally stewed, to be precise, only eight ripe, but the three people were hungry, but they couldn't wait for the meat to be cooked, and the three people cleaned their hands with the water in the ditch in the dark, and changed their hands repeatedly on the goose meat that was still hot, and their mouths did not stop for a moment.

Although Xue Shuiwu eats with his hands, he still pays attention to his appearance, but Ye Xiaotian and the four-year-old Leyao child have no image at all. This goose is really not small, although the three of them are hungry, they can't eat half of it.

After eating, Ye Xiaotian burped comfortably and said, "The rest of the meat will be heated again tomorrow morning and eaten on the road." ”

Xue Shuiwu saw that her daughter was eating with her belly open, so that her round little belly was propped up, and said worriedly: "If you eat too much meat, you should drink some tea to dissolve the greasy, this girl doesn't have enough meat, don't eat your stomach." ”

Ye Xiaotian used a branch as a toothpick to pick his teeth and said: "I'm worried, it's not a big fish and meat every day, so it's okay to have a meal once in a while." ”

"Hmm!"

The two of them asked and answered, faintly like a couple talking about their children, but the two of them were completely unaware. Le Yao clapped his hands and smiled: "It's best to be a brother." "P: Ah, I'm really sorry, people are so good at talking, from four o'clock in the afternoon to now, it's not over yet, I just slipped away, but I've already played at least ten episodes, roar.
