Chapter 175: Zhuqing Village in the Northern Song Dynasty (4)
The village of Zhuqing Village is very small, and there are about 20 families in total!
On this day, Xiao Jiu and I passed by many houses, and Xiao Jiu tied a fish with straw and tied a straw rope to hang it outside the house.
So repeatedly, after sending more than 20 families down, it basically took half of the day!
Among them, we met several families, all of whom were when Xiao Jiu hung the fish outside the master's house, and the door was suddenly opened, or the people who lived inside just came back.
At this time, the other party will greet Xiao Jiu warmly, or thank Xiao Jiu.
But there is a difference, I saw Xiao Jiuduo tied a fish and sent it into a family's house, I didn't follow up, just looked at the frame outside.
When Xiao Jiu came out, I saw a boy about his age come out!
The boy is tall and big, compared to Xiao Jiu's short and fat, this boy looks very strong, although his cheeks are thin, but under the wheat yellow complexion, he looks very energetic, he laughed with Xiao Jiu and said something, and after a while, he returned to the house.
At the end of the day, we sometimes come across someone who brings us a bowl of water and fruit to quench our thirst.
In this way, I already know half of the people in Zhuqing Village, which is undoubtedly a good thing for me, and it is also the reason why I will ask Xiao Jiu to take a walk at noon!
However, my existence has also aroused the curiosity of many people in Zhuqing Village.
Although I had already taken off the strange-shaped clothes and replaced them with Xiao Jiu's wide cloth clothes, no matter how I disguised it, my appearance really didn't fit in with the people here.
Most of the people in Zhuqing Village have dark skin, which may be due to the climate or geography.
And they both have long hair, women with their heads tied up, men tied back their heads, adults and children alike!
Another important point is that the people here have a temperament, a temperament that allows them to fit in, to be precise, it is something unique to the people who have lived here for a long time, and it makes me look very awkward.
Therefore, on this day, my presence caused the people of Zhuqing Village to turn their heads and look sideways.
I can't explain my origin, I don't know about Zhuqing Village in the Northern Song Dynasty, I can't make up any information, and I haven't mentioned it in the past three days, Xiao Jiu didn't ask me very interestingly, I think it should be what the old man said to him!
But no matter how Ren Xiaojiu guessed, he couldn't get out of his mind and guess that I was from another world!
A twenty-first century that is out of reach for them!
So when people from Zhuqing Village asked about me, Xiao Jiu would say that I was from outside the market.
Because there is a market across the lake where the old man fishes, the people of Zhuqing Village call the places outside the market outside, and I will also nod in agreement!
As for the gaze of the people in Zhuqing Village, my thought is that since I am already in Zhuqing Village, finding the past life of the black and white envoy has undoubtedly become the most important thing for me at present.
Because this is not only about my past life, but also a factor that determines whether I can return to my original world, I also need to integrate into the life of Zhuqing Village!
Finally, when the sun was about to set, Xiao Jiu and I slowly came to the last house.
However, the location of this family is far away from the others, and I calculate that it took nearly twenty minutes to get there.
This is a tiled house, and it is also made of wood, which is relatively larger than the old man's one.
On both sides of the tiled house to the rear, there is a field of melons and fruits, in a semicircle, and at this moment, under a luxuriant locust tree, piled with straw, a strong old cow is hiding from the sun overhead, and his head is stretched out in the field to gnaw on the weeds.
"Xiao Jiu, which family is this?"
I'm a little curious, this is obviously much better than the many households in Zhuqing Village, and the conditions are obviously much better in all aspects.
And looking at the mouth-watering fruits, containing fresh and sweet water, under this hot sun, it is really tempting, and people can't help but want to pick a fruit to taste its fullness.
"Hehe, this is Grandpa Meng's home." Xiao Jiu explained to me.
At this time, there were still several fish in the frame, and there were seven or eight of them, and I saw Xiao Jiu all running up with ropes, and walked towards the tile house in a hurry.
Seeing that I was still standing in place, Xiao Jiu pulled me over with a smile and told me that Grandpa Meng had something delicious there, and asked me to go with him first to rest for a while, and go back together when the sun goes down.
The door of the tiled house was closed, Xiao Jiu quickly knocked on the door, and after waiting for a while, the door was half opened!
The door was opened by a girl about ten years old, with a thin body and big eyes, clear and bright.
The two balls tied up by the girl are very cute, and the whole person looks very smart, which makes people feel good!
"Brother Xiaojiu, why is it again?"
The little girl seemed to guess who the person at the door was, and her mouth pursed like a pink cherry!
"Haha, I've only come here once in a few days, Mizucao, you won't be bored with me, right, I didn't bully you?"
The little girl's name is Shuiweed, with big watery eyes and a thin body like grass roots, not to mention, this name is also suitable for the appearance of a little girl!
"Hmph, I don't know you yet, aren't you just here to rub the snacks that grandpa gave me!"
Shuicao said this, and suddenly noticed me behind Xiao Jiu, and she immediately stopped talking.
She tilted her head slightly, looked at me with curiosity in her big eyes, and her cuteness made me want to pinch her face.
"Xiao Jiu is here?"
At this time, an old voice came from inside the room, and I immediately heard the voice of the old man Mengxi, and I couldn't help but look inside curiously.
Unfortunately, it was pitch black and I couldn't see through!
The old man Meng Xi walked out, revealing half of his face, and when he saw me, he just nodded slightly at me.
Then he pulled out a stack of hemp rope from behind him, which was filled with shelled fruits, and I looked at it, and it was walnuts.
"Hehe, it's still Grandpa Meng who is the best for me, this girl is too stingy, and she won't share my snacks with this little bit!"
Xiao Jiu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly handed the bundled fish in his hand to the aquatic plants, and then hurriedly went to take the walnuts in the hands of the old man Mengxi.
Xiao Jiu was overjoyed, but he forgot that the weight of these seven or eight fish was about twenty catties, and for a while, I saw that the aquatic weed's face turned red, and the body of the fish was about to fall, so I hurriedly went up to take the fish in his hand.
It's just that at the moment when I touched my hands with the aquatic plants, a chill like three feet frozen in the cold winter suddenly spread all over my body, making me shiver, and the fish in my hand almost fell to the ground!
Is this the body temperature that a little girl should have?
I looked at the little girl in surprise, the little girl didn't react much, but breathed a sigh of relief, as if the weight of the fish almost crushed her, a pair of big watery eyes glared at Xiao Jiu!
"Okay, Xiao Jiu, it's not early, you should go back."
Old man Mengxi took the fish in my hand and closed the gate with the other hand.
And the moment the door closed, I saw a brazier flickering inside, and around the brazier there were small scarecrows!
