Chapter 12: The four-leaf clover pendant
The moon fades into obscurity, hidden in the thick clouds, signaling the end of the night and the arrival of a new day.
Xie Xi sent Ling Youyou all the way back to the courtyard and took care of her for a night, but she hadn't woken up yet.
"Wow wow wow wo Don't hold on so hard, young lady, why are you so strong? Pain pain, don't scratch there! Please, let it go, it's broken......
Xie Xi burst into tears, looked down, and saw that Ling Youyou's hands were clenched tighter and tighter, and even his knuckles were slightly white. He gasped, carefully broke Ling Youyou's tightly clenched fingers one by one, and then quickly clamped his legs and jumped away like a rabbit.
Ling Youyou had been suffering from a fever all night. Xie Xi has been guarding her, I don't know how many times the towel has been changed, and the cold ice true yuan in her body has also been spent in Ling Youyou's body again and again, and in the end, she feels that her body has been hollowed out. But the true yuan that came out of the degree was not Ling Youyou herself after all, she could only help her alleviate the heat poison, and in the end, she still had to rely on herself to completely resolve the heat poison.
But he saw that Ling Youyou was talking nonsense the whole time, as if his will had been hit by something, and his fair and flawless face would be distorted for a while, sad for a while, and even unstoppable for a while. Occasionally, she would talk nonsense in her dreams, and Xie Xi could hear it and almost guess the whole story. It seems that my father cheated, divorced, and took Ling Youyou's mother to rely on her for her life insane, and finally passed away.
Ling Youyou kept shouting Mom, Mom, I want revenge, if I want revenge, I gritted my teeth to death. Xie Xi had to bite her finger so that she wouldn't bite herself indiscriminately in the fever.
However, he couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for this eccentric woman. Looking at the giggling every day, who knows what kind of story is buried in her heart?
Speaking of which, I also became an orphan because of my father's cheating, which can be regarded as sympathy, and I feel a little more pity for her in my heart. After a long time, the pain between her legs subsided, Xie Xi cautiously approached Ling Youyou's side again, took a light breath, and cautiously confirmed the position of her hands, then put the soaked towel lightly on her forehead, held her hand again, and said, "It's okay, it's all over." Quietly by her side.
Speaking of which, in the first half of the night, Ling Youyou still guarded Xie Xi, and in the second half of the night, the two switched.
Speaking of which, Xie Xi is also ...... Orphan.
When he was a child, his father cheated, his mother took revenge with a sword, killed his father with a knife, hacked the junior to death by the way, sentenced him to life, and the second trial was changed to 20 years. He became a fatherless, motherless, unadopted child. Fortunately, the distant aunt's family saw him pitiful and adopted him, but the good times did not last long, and the aunt and his wife had a car accident when they went out, and both died, leaving him and the only daughter of the aunt's family, Sister Su Lu, to depend on each other.
Sister Su Lu, thinking of Sister Su Lu, my heart is still faintly a little painful...... He tried his best not to think about it.
Su Lu later went to university in other provinces, and since then, he has been living alone.
Now that he has lived to the age of seventeen with difficulty, Xie Xi's only sigh is: "Reincarnation is really a technical job!" ”
Some people don't do anything, they are born with everything, and the road is smooth. And Xie Xi has suffered a lot of hardships that people may not be able to imagine in their lives. Because I was reluctant to pay for electricity, I lay in the corridor and relied on the voice-activated light to read books and do exercises, and there were too many to count. When I shiver in the winter, I will look at the lights of thousands of homes outside and envy the warmth of other people's homes. Since Sister Su Lu left, the only thing that can make Xie Xi feel a little warmth is his good friend Shen Yajun, which is one of the pillars that have supported him to survive all these years.
But when it comes to his parents, Xie Xi can't talk about how resentful he is, after all, they gave him life, and he still has a little admiration for his happy mother.
Life gradually improved, and after being admitted to Wuzhou Chenxi Private High School with excellent results, he was exempted from tuition fees and received a large scholarship. However, this is his limit now.
All kinds of memories swirled in his mind, and it didn't take long for Xie Xi to fall asleep with exhaustion.
Ling Youyou woke up once in the middle of the night, and when she woke up, the starlight sprinkled on her long eyelashes through the window, and she lay on her back on the bed, but her eyes seemed to be still immersed in a faint dream. After a long time, she turned her head and noticed that her hand was covered by a cold hand, and the owner of that hand, Xie Xi, sat on the broken wooden stool next to the bed, leaning against the wall and falling asleep, and a starlight fell on him, like a melted blanket for him.
Ling Youyou's face flushed slightly, and he wanted to withdraw his hand, but after thinking about it, he was afraid of waking up this stupid boy, so he let him hold it. After thinking about it, he took off the blanket on his body and draped it on Xie Xi. My heart suddenly felt as if I had been gently touched by something, itchy, warm.
This guy's hands are so cold, he can't catch a cold, right? Faintly worried. Of course, she didn't know that this was the effect of the Lingbo Lingxi Belt.
But this worry didn't last long, and it seemed that the world suddenly swirled in his mind, and Ling Youyou fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I smelled the aroma of millet porridge mixed with pork. Ling Youyou turned his eyes and saw Xie Xi with his back to him, and a small bowl was set up on the lit brazier. The tongue of fire licked the bottom of the bowl slowly, and the curling white smoke mixed with the aroma of meat and porridge wafted in the room.
Ling Youyou found that her mobile phone was unlocked by Xie Xi and threw it aside, she picked it up and looked at it, only to see that the recipe "Wild Boar Millet Porridge" on the page was Baidu to the page, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud with a "poof".
Xie Xi heard the laughter, turned his head, grabbed his hair and said, "You woke up, are you quite happy?" ”
Ling Youyou smiled: "Why are you unhappy, you will have something to eat when you wake up, how good." Xie Xi also smiled, he could see that Ling Youyou was in a good mood, although he still couldn't understand why Ling Youyou cried and screamed in his dream last night, and he was in such a good mood when he woke up today, but it would definitely not be wrong to immediately deliver the food to this eldest lady, he took out the bowl he had prepared earlier, poured the porridge in the bowl into it, and the aroma was overflowing in an instant.
Ling Youyou took the porridge, took a bite, and his eyes lit up, and he began to eat it bitterly. Xie Xi said: "Is it delicious?" Ling Youyou ignored it. Xie Xi smiled helplessly, Ling Youyou finished a bowl of porridge in a moment, and stretched the bowl over again. Xie Xi smiled and helped her fill another bowl.
"By the way, why do you have to read the recipe when cooking? Shen Yajun told me about you, he said that you cook by yourself at home, never go out to eat, you should be very good at cooking, right? Ling Youyou took the bowl and asked with a little confusion instead of rushing to eat it this time.
Xie Xi shook his head and said, "I usually cook porridge with brown rice, and I have never used millet. Also, the porridge I cook is all white porridge, and there is no meat. I finally found a reserve of millet and pork in this courtyard, and I was afraid that it would not taste good when cooked, and it would be wasted. So, Baidu took a look. ”
Ling Youyou let out an "oh": "Don't you usually eat meat?" ”
"Eat little."
"No wonder it's so skinny." Ling Youyou glanced at him jealously, rolled his eyes, and then suddenly handed the porridge that he had only drunk a few sips in his hand to Xie Xi, and said viciously: "You also give me food, hurry up and eat more, you are not allowed to be lighter than me!" Absolutely not! ”
Xie Xi took the bowl with a smile and a smile, and under Ling Youyou's vicious gaze, he had to drink it in a big gulp. Ling Youyou nodded with satisfaction.
Why did this young lady suddenly become rude? That's not the case when we first met. Xie Xi scratched his head in his heart.
At this time, Ling Youyou remembered that the two of them were using the same bowl, and his face suddenly turned red. Xie Xi was puzzled: "Yoyo, you are blushing, hasn't the heat poison subsided?" Ling Youyou stared at him viciously, making Xie Xi tremble, and she snatched Xie Xi's bowl over, "I told you to talk too much, I won't give you food, hmph, the rest of the porridge is mine, starve you to death." ”
……
The rest is over, and the two have basically recovered their energy. Xie Xi had already learned from Ling Youyou that the A-level cultivation treasure Ling Bo Lingxi Belt that was now equipped on his body was actually a mediocre bandage that was casually discarded in the room of the Ground Mansion, and it was only by chance that Xie Xi was tied to his body, otherwise no one would take a second look at it when he walked by.
In this way, I am afraid that there are still some secrets or treasures in this courtyard. The two discussed for a while, and decided to carefully explore this place number courtyard first, and then contact Shen Yajun and them.
When they walked out of the room, it was already a big sun outside, and the two of them were bathed in the grand sunshine, a piece of warmth. Xie Xi suddenly said, "Yoyo, wait a minute, I forgot to give you something." Ling Youyou stopped, and Xie Xi went around to Ling Youyou's back and hung the four-leaf clover pendant around her neck for her.
Ling Youyou was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little confused, and he couldn't help but reach out and hold the small pendant.
"It seems like something that's important to you. Take good care of it, and if you drop it next time, I'll go with you to find it. Xie Xi said, "Okay, then it'll be fine." Let's go. He turned and walked forward.
Ling Youyou looked at Xie Xi's back, and suddenly remembered that afternoon, sitting on the swing in the park, the betrayed and lonely mother held the rope of the swing with both hands and looked at herself, and then untied the pendant around her neck and solemnly handed it over to her hand. She cried and took Ling Youyou into her arms: "I hope that one day, there will be someone who can tell you what love is all about." I hope that the person who put the pendant on you will always be with you. "On that day, the vague silhouette of my mother disappeared into the depths of memory in the setting sun.
"Yo-yo, what's wrong? Let's go. Xie Xi found that Ling Youyou didn't follow, turned his head, and said.
Ling Youyou shook his head, smiled, and quickly followed.
