Chapter 180: Estrangement, Memories
The idle courtyard hut leaned against a forest, and occasionally a few slightly yellowed leaves floated by, as if to show that midsummer was almost over, and it was time for autumn.
Listening to the obscene laughter that Old Man Hong couldn't stop at all, he just shook his head lightly, and didn't look at him anymore, and he was indeed familiar with his habit after being with him for a long time, even if he knew that he was now the previous hall master of the Tang Sect, he was still the obscene old man I was familiar with.
"Whew"
I just moved the broom in my hand, sweeping the yellowing leaves that fell from time to time, knowing that I couldn't finish sweeping, and I didn't really want to sweep, but left time for Senior Sister Yu and Old Man Hong to talk, although I thought I was very familiar with both of them, but after knowing the relationship between the two, I knew that my familiarity was just a joke, and I could really only be regarded as an outsider when Senior Sister Yu and Old Man Hong were together.
"Xiao Ayu, let's stay for a few more days when I come this time, and I don't need to find a place to celebrate my birthday for the old man, just here in Xiao Luo'er."
The movements in his hands did not stop, and it was only a moment to stand behind me The old man Hong, who was laughing, suddenly opened his mouth, and his tone turned out to be a rare deep voice, which was not at all different from the obscene arbitrariness when I was together.
"Hmm." After Old Man Hong finished speaking, Senior Sister Yu's faint voice came into his ears, and after the sound was over, the small courtyard suddenly fell silent.
Celebrating a birthday? Hearing the words of the old man Hong, the movements in his hands couldn't help but stagnate, "Is it the birthday of the old man Hong" muttered in his heart while his face was unconsciously stiff, and the old man Hong has been with him for so long, I really haven't heard the old man Hong talk about his birthday, and in the same way, I haven't had it myself, and only when the festival is celebrated, Lan'er or Xiaohai will come to let me go to the house together.
"Isn't your birthday coming soon, just stay here." The silence didn't last long, and Old Man Hong spoke again as if he remembered something.
Senior Sister Yu's birthday? Old man Hong's voice fell, and after reacting, his heart couldn't help but move, and he just wanted to say something but suddenly thought that Senior Sister Yu hadn't opened her mouth yet, and she had never told me, and she knew that Senior Sister Yu had always been a character who said the same, if she didn't say it, she didn't think it was necessary, or she didn't think about it at all, Old Man Hong was her own uncle, and it was nothing, but what am I? It seemed that I was not qualified to say it at all, and my mind turned, and I couldn't help swallowing the words that had reached my mouth, and then I clenched the broom in my hand and moved again.
"Okay."
As soon as the hand that raised the broom was raised, Senior Sister Yu's voice came over, and the tone was still as flat as ever, but the meaning revealed in the words still made my heart tremble unconsciously, "Does Senior Sister Yu want to stay?" "But what does that have to do with me." The thought turned, the corners of his lips curved slightly, and the thoughts that fluctuated after thinking of Senior Sister Yu's personality couldn't help but fade.
"Click"
It seems that he also understands Senior Sister Yu's character, although there is only one word, but after hearing Senior Sister Yu's consent, Old Man Hong stopped talking, and listened to the footsteps behind him, as if he was walking in my direction.
"Xiao Luo'er, put this in your house first, I have no place there."
Listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, his eyes drooping on the ground just raised the voice of the old man Hong, and then the old man Hong paused, but he spoke again, "Hehe, today the old man, I will let you taste what is the best in the world!" The obscene and smug tone turned the doubt that had just risen into amusement, and after seeing the thing in Old Man Hong's hand, he couldn't help but be stunned, it turned out to be the wooden box that Senior Sister Yu brought out from the Tang Gate.
Senior Sister Ziyu had already opened it on the way back, and there were two small boxes inside, one was filled with clothes and boots, and now I think it should be for Old Man Hong, but when I look at the little old man with a lewd expression and a broken felt hat in front of me again, it is really difficult to imagine the scene of Old Man Hong wearing a moon-white robe, I can't imagine it at all, even if I know now that Old Man Hong is the master of the inner hall in front of the Tang Gate, where does this old man look like a person in white?!
And the other box has not been opened, although curious, but since Old Man Hong and Senior Sister Yu did not say, I did not think to open it, looking at the wooden box that returned to his hand with a smile on the corner of his lips, I couldn't help but feel deep, I thought that the box that I took all the way was not brought to me by Senior Sister Yu, but I really didn't think that it was brought to Old Man Hong, and Old Man Hong still has to be placed in my room now.
"yes, okay."
After his eyes swept over the wooden box, he just made a sound, and at the same time, he followed the hand of the old man Hong and took the wooden box, and the broom in his hand leaned against the steps of the wooden house, and he stepped over the stairs in two steps, and directly pushed open the door that was closed.
"Squeak~"
As expected, it was not locked, but when I entered the house and saw the scene in the house, I couldn't help but be stunned, and it was unexpectedly clean! Although there were not many things, they were still the same as before leaving, the square wooden table was placed in the center of the room, with scratches on it, two small benches around, bows and arrows and firewood knives hanging on the wall, and a water tank and rice pot in the corner, but the dusty cabinet before leaving was obviously wiped down.
Looking at the house that was untouched and just been cleaned, his eyes couldn't help flashing, obviously it would not be cleaned up by Old Man Hong, you must know that he didn't even bother to tidy up his room and the stable for his livelihood, but if you want to, there are a lot of people who can come here, but there is obviously only one person who can do this, "Lan'er" silently read Lan'er's name and then passed a shadow of a girl in an emerald Luo dress in her mind, and her coincidental appearance made me feel warm in my heart.
Carrying the box that the old man Hong gave me, I walked slowly to the house, and I didn't find a place to put it for a long time, although there are many simple and empty places, but this wooden box is obviously not suitable for the place to enter the door, and finally I can only choose to put it next to the cabinet at the head of the bamboo bed.
"Bang"
Walked to the end of the bed did not hesitate to put it down directly, because it contained a stone lamp, although bowed down to light the movement but still made a sound, after putting it away, I looked at the wooden box placed at the head of the bed again and straightened up, but the thing I just raised my eyes caught out of the corner of my eye made me suddenly.
"Makeup!"
The red wooden box has also been wiped down, and it seems that because of the special materials, although it has been placed for a long time and even the supporting cabinet is a little old, it still has a sense of newness.
"Xin'er" couldn't help muttering to herself after seeing the makeup, this is the box she was holding in her hand when she first saw Xin'er, and after the thought flashed, her heart was suddenly startled, and her free hands subconsciously reached into her arms, and only after the faint cold touch between her fingers did she let go of her thoughts.
