Chapter 57: Remnant
The old house in the depths of the night, the moonlight sprinkles on the house like water, quiet and deep, seemingly cold, but it can cover a tile, block a brick, and shelter from the rain and wind is also excellent, better than sleeping on the street.
This is the time when the He family gathers, but there is one person in the distance, so annoying, He Xinyi smirked on his face, looked back and smiled, "I'm afraid that my humble house can't entertain the noble Jin Gongzi." ”
Jin Xixing's footsteps faltered, and he pulled out a faint smile, "It's the negligence of the juniors who say goodbye." ”
He Xinyi sneered in his heart, flicked his sleeves, and after venting his bad emotions, he changed to a joyful smile and faced Ah Qi.
"Ming'er can go to procure materials, and it will be overnight!"
The voice is gentle and gentle, which is really a motherly mood.
"Okay, mother, I listen to you," Ah Qi looked at Yuanyuan in his arms, seeing that she was sleeping sweetly, he couldn't bear to wake her up.
"You two, follow me, don't run around," He Xinyi raised his hand and nodded his forehead, smiling a little.
"Yes, Auntie," the two said in unison, their voices rising. The heart is happy, they can also live in a big house, although it is not theirs, but it is still okay to feast their eyes.
This courtyard is surrounded by an inverted seat room, a main house, and a wing room, of which the north room is the main house, and the houses in the east and west directions are the wing rooms, and the "inverted seat room", that is, the south door opens to the north, as if it has been opened.
Such a house is very similar to a courtyard house where the poor live. Aren't they just paupers from outside?
He Xinyi led them into the house with a torch, and due to the long-term cleaning of the house, there were no traces of spiders building webs, nor did they see Xiaoqiang walking around, let alone mice.
However, a small small house, so well cared for, presumably the original owner loved this house very much, and perhaps there was a reason for it, so he sold the house and went away.
He Xinyi came to the kitchen, there was a lot of firewood, looked back at them, and said happily, "Are you hungry?" ”
Ah Qi smiled, and looked down at Yuanyuan, whose eyes were worried, "Yuanyuan is hungry!" ”
"Okay, I'll prepare goat's milk for her in a while," He Xinyi put down the basket, looked at the two brothers who had been holding her sleeves, and smiled, "You can let go of your hand." ”
Ji Huan smiled, "Auntie, you are so good!" ”
Compared with her mother, her aunt is far inferior to her mother, but after getting along with her aunt for a long time, she feels more and more that her aunt is a mother who really loves her children.
A mother loves her children, but she is also cruel, to what extent? Ji Huan once saw her cruel to herself in the middle of the night, if he hadn't called out to his mother in time, I am afraid that he would have been separated from his mother's yin and yang.
Hey, after Ji Huan said this, he regretted it a little, his mother was great, for this family, his mother paid too much, but she didn't get anything in return, if her mother heard this, how sad would she be?
"I didn't give you honey to eat, why is it so sweet," He Xinyi smiled faintly, and looked at Ji Chen, who was silent, these two children looked alike, and sometimes they couldn't be recognized.
But it's not so difficult to identify, it's Ji Huan who loves to talk and laugh. Silent and moody is Ji Chen.
He Xinyi squatted down and looked at them heavily, "You two have been on the road with me for nearly a month, your brother abandoned you, and I still don't know where to go, and I don't know what they did for." ”
"Auntie, will they come back to us?" Ji Chen was timid, his tone was like a mosquito, and he couldn't be lighter.
"I don't know," He Xinyi shook his head and smiled, "Next, you are honestly waiting for your parents here." ”
The atmosphere froze instantly, and the ideal ending was that Ji Huan was the first to respond, and Ji Chen agreed with tears.
He Xinyi didn't comfort them, self-healing is the best comfort, and the bitter persuasion of others is the most hurtful thing in the eyes of heartbroken people.
"Mother......" Ah Qi wanted to say that they were only five years old, and they were still crying by them, not comforting and comforting, for fear that it would be bad, but the words came to their lips and swallowed back, and when they saw the two brothers, they remembered the past with their sister.
Wasn't that what they were then? No one coaxes you when you cry, no one cares when you are hungry, and you are scolded and gloating when you laugh.
Just thinking about it, I feel shocked. Ah Qi suddenly discovered that the past had turned into smoke, and living the present was the truth.
"Mother, let's cook and eat, I'm hungry!" Ah Qi also learned to be coquettish.
"Okay," no matter how painful his heart was, He Xinyi was still happy on his face, and when he saw Ah Qi in front of him, he saw Ah Zhi, although the two of them looked different, but carefully looked at their eyebrows and eyes, and their faces, it was really another Ah Zhi in front of her.
Ah Qi is coquettish, He Xinyi's heart also trembled, Ah Zhi doesn't seem to have told her coquettish words yet?
The kitchen that has not been smoky for a long time, with the long-lost flame, the small kitchen is no longer cold and damp.
The firewood crackles in the camphouse, the fragrant goat's milk is boiled in the stew pot on the three-legged iron frame, and the sweet potatoes shaved on the road are roasted in the fiery red charcoal.
He Xinyi took the time to lay the floor on the side, this side had just been paved, and Ji Huan had washed up there, and Ji Chen was standing on the side and waiting.
Lying in the warm futon, Ji Chen didn't think about anything, closed his eyes, adjusted his sleeping position, and fell asleep comfortably.
Ji Huan didn't want to sleep, but next to the warm bedding, no matter how firm his will was, he still couldn't resist the sleepiness.
He Xinyi shook his head helplessly and sighed, tucked the corners of the quilt for them, and probed the forehead for symptoms of cold and fever, and saw that there was nothing abnormal between the two of them, so the heart sank to carry it.
He Xinyi looked back and saw that Ah Qi was drowsy, so he went over and hugged Yuanyuan, and whispered, "Ah Qi, you also rest quickly, I'll take Yuanyuan." ”
"Mother," Ah Qi yawned, wiping away the tears that came out of the yawn, "I'm not sleepy. ”
"Don't force yourself, rest early," He Xinyi smiled, looked at Yuanyuan, who had fallen asleep after drinking goat's milk, and pointed to the bedding, "Go ahead." ”
Ah Qi took Yuanyuan and went to the warm futon, only next to the pillow for less than a quarter of an hour, there was a slight snoring.
He Xinyi saw the young Ah Qi, but he was still a child, so he became a mother.
Ah Zhi is almost thirty years old, he is still a child, and he has been running with Cheng Mo for nearly ten years, and he can't even hear a sound, hey!
He Xinyi sighed again, when would she be able to see Ah Zhi getting married and having children seriously.
Sitting by the fire trough, I turned the roasted sweet potatoes, and before they were cooked, they all fell asleep. He Xinyi gently picked up a sweet potato, and as soon as he removed the sweet potato skin, he heard some slight noise in the small courtyard.
He Xinyi raised it vigilantly, put down the sweet potato, picked up the dagger in the basket, and quietly walked out of the kitchen.
The figure in the small courtyard gradually approached, and the light of the fire in the house reflected on the handsome face.
He Xinyi eased his mind, clenched the dagger in his hand, and snorted coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
