Another day passed plainly, the third day was fine, and after lunch, Xue Ling went out and sat in the yard, listening to the bird's song in the trees. In the courtyard of the Li family, you can see the river from a distance, and the boats come and go, small like a leaf.

Xue Ling suddenly didn't want to leave.

When people are drowning, they grab a straw and are reluctant to lose their hands, not to mention, she suddenly grabbed something that has been in her mind for the past two or three years.

She really reached it, and she reached the girl she saw in the script, with soft green silk and a shallow smile. Before going to bed last night, she saw the face in the bronze mirror. It's no longer the weird look of wearing men's clothes and applying grease and powder in the capital. The eyebrows and eyes are delicate in the mirror. The corners of her grinning lips made the people in the mirror brighter, so bright that she wanted to forget about the life and death of the past few days.

What's more, someone really held her in her hand, except for Li Dazhuang, who didn't like to talk, Aunt Li hated to give Xue Ling all the things she had prepared for her daughter, and wiped her tears and told her, "Even if you go back, you must come and see." Li Aniu called her "sister" in a loud voice, and she couldn't hear Ding Yi shouting "little master" anymore.

Why, why is it so divided, even though it is one person? Xue Ling thought as he staggered in his chair.

She was thinking about it when the courtyard door opened. Li Ah rushed in like a bull. Seeing Xue Ling sitting in the courtyard, he was stunned for a moment, and then changed to a Sven appearance. Holding a hand of snow white, he handed it to Xue Ling, "This is thatched roots, sister.. You.. You have to eat some, it's very sweet."

There was sadness in Xue Ling's eyes again.

Li Aniu saw the sadness in Xue Ling's eyes, and he only felt that he had no hands and feet. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He saw that any girl in the village was indifferent, and originally A-Niang was worried about kissing him, and he thought that the flowers and grass were good. But when he opened the door yesterday, he saw the girl who had been scooped up. I felt my heart beating fast for a moment.

When he heard A-Niang say that the girl's name was Luo'er, he thought it was a good name. It's not like the village is full of green flowers, Ah Fen. "Luo'er, Luo'er". No matter how you call it, he feels soft, like a freshly sprouted willow branch at the door, which can float up when the wind blows.

But Li Aniu knew that this Luo'er was very sad, and in addition to eating, he soaked himself in the river, hoping to pick up Luo'er's father. In this way, Luo'er will definitely laugh. But he didn't catch Luo'er's father, only a wooden puppet. What is the use of a doll, and what about a thousand taels of silver?

Instead, his father was ecstatic and asked him to come back and call A-Niang, but he delayed, he went to dig a handful of thatch roots, washed them with river water several times before trotting all the way back. The girls in the village love sweets, and they don't know if Luo'er loves them or not.

"Thank you, big brother." Xue Ling took the thatch root and stuffed it into his mouth, it was really sweet. It's much sweeter than what Lu Wenan pulled that day.

Li Aniu's heart floated to the sky again, and Luo'er said sweet. Sure enough, I like it. In a moment he will go to town, and when he has received the reward, he must go to the best confectionery shop and buy a lot of candy. There's no shortage of money anyway. It's good, it's good. He couldn't tell where it was good, but he thought it was good.

Thinking of this, Li Aniu hurriedly called Aunt Li: "Mother, I got it, I got it." I caught it with the third uncle's family. Dad told you to go with me, so I could buy some clothes along the way. ”

Aunt Li rushed out with a face full of disbelief: "God, I really got it." I thought it was nonsense, how much does it cost? ”

Xue Ling didn't know what they had caught, but he saw that both of them were very happy, so he asked, "What did Auntie catch?" ”

Aunt Li walked up to her side, and even her tone softened: "Fishing for the puppet, someone came to the village yesterday to say that a businessman lost a valuable wooden puppet and found it and sent it to the county government." Give a thousand taels of silver! I thought it was a fool, and now every village is fishing. ”

"And that sort of thing."

"No, it is said that several villages along this river have said that my God, I don't know what kind of wood is so expensive. You are resting at home. Auntie brought you something to eat. By the way, I'll help you ask if there is any news about your father. ”

"Thank you, Auntie." Xue Ling watched Aunt Li and Li Aniu go out.

The spring sun really makes people drowsy, Xue Ling closed her eyes on the chair, she was reluctant to enter the house, this kind of lazy comfort was too tempting. It has never been seen in Heijo either.

This covetousness came to the twilight of day. Counting Aunt Li, they should also come back. Twenty miles and two hours, how is it enough, it is estimated that it has been delayed to buy in the town.

Xue Ling stood up and wanted to enter the house, and the strings in his head exploded in an instant.

No, that puppet is wrong.

She subconsciously wanted to touch the sword, but remembered that she didn't have a sword at all. In a flash, he entered the house, grabbed his original clothes and jumped out of the door of the Li family's courtyard.

After only looking back, Xue Ling did not hesitate. I guess I don't think I'll take a few fishermen.

"Official, there is our village in front. This doll was picked up here. The river descends from the mountains, and this area is the most gentle. So we often fished for things. ”

"Raw? No, I don't. ”

"People who fall into the water often catch people who fall into the water."

"I don't have this, I haven't seen the boy in the 14th Five-Year Plan in the past few days, I don't know if other families have picked it up." Li Dazhuang vaguely remembered the little girl in men's clothes who was fished up, but his wife pinched herself.

"We, how dare we deceive the official, this is really not looking."

"Official....Official....... Official..... we don't want to reward money"

"Baby! …………….”

Li Dazhuang was trying to defend something, but his voice was too small. Like a wisp of smoke, it dissipates in the wind in the blink of an eye. And then there was the silence.

After Xue Ling came out of the courtyard of the Li family, she went to the mountain in a hurry, and she didn't dare to move, if her guess was right, there must be someone on the road, and she couldn't go for these two days. I can only stay in the mountains and wait. After this toss, the sky has darkened. The top of the mountain was high, and Xue Ling found that he could vaguely see Lijia Village.

It's nice to be able to watch her daughter's family years that have rarely been seen in the past 14 years. Xue Ling stuffed another thatch root into his mouth. Li Aniu gave it to her, and she hasn't finished eating it yet.

Fire, fire in the sky. Sudden.

Lijia Village was on fire, and the firelight reflected half of the sky. The surroundings were bright in the twilight.

Ironically, a hundred meters away from the firelight is the river. It's just that not a drop can be poured on the fire in Lijia Village.

The crackling of the fire is just how a dead man feels.

I felt that Xue Ling was eating thatched roots, and she couldn't take her eyes off it, from the fire to the fire. While stuffing grass roots into his mouth, he watched the fire show his teeth and claws, as if he could dry the water of the 800-mile river and burn himself to ashes.

She finally saw a figure running into the embers, and she didn't know who had discovered the fire. However, she didn't see anyone coming out of the embers.

I guess it's too far away, so I can't see it.

Finally, I finished eating the last one, but just eating and eating, it was not sweet, and the bitter people had tears on their faces.

Xue Ling suddenly wanted to ask Aunt Li: "The blue sky and the white sun, the peaceful and prosperous world." How did this happen? ”
