Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Deer

The next morning, Ling'er opened her eyes to the sound of chirping birds outside the window, and slept early and warm last night.

"Yiyi, you're all up, so early." Ling'er saw Yi who was about to go out.

Yiyi heard Ling'er calling her and glanced back at her: "Well, if you sleep here for a long time, if you were in the valley, you should have gotten up to practice swords." I'm going to cook breakfast, and you'll wake up in a minute. ”

Ling'er looked at the sleeping little Zuozuo next to him, and couldn't bear to call him up, this child is diligent, it's rare to be able to sleep for so long, sleep a little longer, and there is nothing to do on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Looking at Zuo'er's sleeping appearance, that expression is really similar to Qi Rong, there are too many portraits of brothers with the same father and mother, sometimes looking at the taste between Zuo Zuo's gestures, it is very similar to Qi Rong. Ling'er felt guilty about Qi Rong, she had always owed Qi Rong too much, and later Qi Rong's death made her unable to let go, and now she just avoided thinking about it.

Ling'er looked at Zuozuo and wandered, her little eyes moved, and the person also turned over and opened her eyes: "Where am I?" How many days is it? ”

"Zuo'er, I'm here, and I haven't gotten up yet." Ling'er was afraid that he would turn over and fall, so she quickly turned around and stuffed him into the bed.

"Sister, how long has it been?" Left left left asked.

"If you don't practice swords today, you know that you are diligent, so relax and sleep more today, and I'll call you after Sister Yiyi cooks breakfast." Ling'er got up and put on her coat, and tucked the corners of the quilt for Zuozuo.

"I'm waking up, I'm going to get up, it's so boring to lie like this." Left left in the morning is a little noisy.

"Zuo'er will be a year older after the New Year, so you can't lose your temper." Ling'er pressed him with age.

"Sister, I want to get up." Zuo Zuo looked at Ling'er with pitiful eyes and said.

"Then sister, get dressed for you." Ling'er hurriedly put on her coat.

"Sister, I'll dress myself, you can help me comb my hair later." Zuozuo also sat up, and put his coat on himself.

"Zuo'er is really amazing, she has grown into a big child." Ling'er buttoned up her own buttons and came to help Zuo Zuo get dressed, "Sister is not very good at combing her hair, so ask someone else to comb it for you later, you get dressed and go out to find someone, anyone can do it." ”

"Knock knock" came to mind the knock on the door.

"Who?" Ling'er turned her face and asked.

"Ling'er, it's time to take Zuozuo out for dinner." Yiyi said at the door.

"Come on, come here, Yiyi, don't go." Ling'er hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door, but before she finished speaking, there was no one at the door.

"Zuozuo, Sister Yiyi is gone, I'll take you to find someone to comb your hair, and take our mirror with you." Ling'er took Zuo Zuo and took Jingxi to knock on the door where the boy lived, because neither of them dared to go to Shigong's door to knock.

"Who?" The voice of the gentleman came from inside.

"Sir, it's Zuozuo, I'm here to comb your hair." Zuo Zuo took the mirror from Ling'er's hand and said.

Mr. came over and opened the door, and was a little stunned when he saw Ling'er standing at the door with Zuo Zuo, he thought that Zuo Zuo was the only one who said, "Come in." ”

"No, Zuozuo wants to comb his hair, I'll just go back and comb it myself." Ling'er was embarrassed and prepared to go back.

"I'll comb it for you, isn't it usually Ah Jue who combs it for you, my master took him out early this morning." Shi Mi saw Ling'er come out and shouted to stop her.

"No, no, I will, Zuo Zuo, you can stay here." Ling'er quickly flashed and left, she was going to look for Ah Jue, Ah Jue was not there, I complained that he didn't come to knock on the door to find her this morning, and was taken out by the master.

Ling'er returned to the house and found that Jing Xi was gone, how can I comb it, I can't see anything, forget it, let's go wash first, and then go outside to wash, just brush my teeth and wash my face and prepare to go back to the house, Shigong and Ah Jue came back.

"Ling'er, look, I'll give it to you." Ah Jue picked a large handful of rhododendrons. "Why are you still wearing a cloak, and your feelings are waiting for me, right?"

"It's not all, Jing Xi was taken to your room by Zuo Zuo, and I don't have a comb or a mirror if I want to." Ling'er's careful thinking was seen through at once, but she didn't admit it.

"I'll wash my hands and get it for you, you go and wait for me in the house, you see, what game we caught this morning, I caught it for you last time." Ah Jue said and took out a few big bullfrogs.

"Wow, I've got a blessing today." Ling'er drooled as she watched those guys.

"Hurry back, eat again at noon, you see you are hungry for cats, I will often take you to catch it in the future, and then burn it for you to eat." Ah Jue smiled helplessly.

"Thank you for the flower, I like it so much, I'll go find something and stick it in the house." Ling'er smiled brightly at the sun, and Ah Jue, who was standing on the side, found that her sweetheart was also a beauty.

"Go quickly, I'll pick up my master, he has a big guy, why hasn't he arrived yet, you go to the house and wait for me." Ah Jue put down what he was holding and turned around and went out again.

"What big guy is Shigong taking?" Ling'er asked curiously.

"An elk, the kind with long antler velvets." Ah Jue ran away without looking back.

Ling'er looked left and right in the courtyard, ready to find something that could hold flowers.

"Ling'er, why are you still wearing your hair." She was spun around like this and was bumped into by Yiyi.

"I'll go back to the house." Ling'er didn't find anything and ran away. Yiyi followed her back to the house.

"Sit down, I'll comb it for you." Yiyi took out a comb from her luggage, a delicate little wooden comb. "This flower is a rhododendron, and it blooms quite beautifully. There's a tall slimming bottle that's just right for this. Yiyi said, pointing to a bottle next to her.

"Really, I'm tired of you combing my hair, I really don't have a comb and no mirror." Ling'er sat down at a table in front of the table.

Yiyi's hand is very skillful, and it will be fine in a while, the woman's hair bun. Ling'er can't see it anyway, so be it. She ran to get the bottle for the flowers.

"Let's go, let's eat, I'm all cooked." Yiyi saw that she had made the flowers and took her out with her.

When they arrived at the restaurant, except for Ah Jue and Shigong, they all arrived, but everyone didn't dare to eat if Shigong didn't come.

"It's coming, we're back." Shi Gong shouted at the door, "Come on!" ”

Sheng'er ran out and saw Ah Jue carrying an elk, and Shigong was also tired and panting in front.

"Master, you are really amazing!" Sheng'er praised and stepped forward to help.

"Well, that's, you see who it is, if I don't make a move, it will definitely be powerful when I make a shot, mainly because this crossbow is powerful." Shigong picked up his most proud weapon and showed it to everyone: "Look at it!" By the way, Ah Jue, put the deer in the yard, tie up a few feet for it, and bring it back to the valley for a few days. What do you see I've dug up? Shigong took out the things in his hand and showed them off: "Ginseng!" This guy is not small, and he should have a lot of years. ”

The people in the courtyard looked at Shigong, and the admiration was like a surging river.

"Master, we think it's amazing when we go out to catch a rabbit, and your kung fu is too powerful." Ling'er looked at Shigong with admiration.

"Ah Jue is not bad, let's eat bullfrogs at noon." Shigong went to dry the ginseng, and washed his hands and prepared for dinner.

During the meal, Ah Jue found that Ling'er's braids today were different from the ones she had combed herself: "I went to pick up my master just now, and I forgot to comb your hair, who combed it for you?" Ah Jue asked her in a whisper in Ling'er's ear.

"Sister Yiyi combed it for me, how is it?" Ling'er shook her head while eating and showed it to Ah Jue.

"Eat well, Yiyi's skills are good, and she combs better than me." Ah Jue stopped talking after speaking, and he was speechless.

After finishing the meal, Shigong began to arrange today's activities: "In the morning, Ah Jue and I went out to hunt, so that in the morning, Ah Jue stayed to cook lunch, bullfrog said that he was more good, Mr. didn't know how to hunt and stayed for Ah Jue to help, how about the rest go out with me to continue hunting?" Let's stay here for a day tomorrow, and then go back on the fourth or fifth day of the new year, Mr. is here, and I'm here, even if I stay for a few days, I can't delay the practice of martial arts. ”

Shigong went back to the house and took a basket on his back, with a sword pinned to his waist, and his repeater in the basket.

"Zuozuo, you're too small, carry the basket for me." Sheng'er looked at this little guy, the person was about the same height as the basket.

It's also a little awkward to walk on the left and left, but just now I insisted on carrying it, and the master squinted at him: "You didn't listen to you for a long time, why, now I don't want to carry it?" Give it to Sheng'er! Zuo Zuo knew that he was wrong, and put the basket down silently.

"Master, do you want me to carry it for you?" Ling'er also wants a basket.

"No, my repeater is in there." Shigong had a rejection written on his face and turned his head to the side.

In this way, except for Ah Jue and Mr. Wang, everyone set off, and Ling'er was a little unrefreshed without Ah Jue, and kept following the left and left.

"Ling'er, hurry up, you see there are a lot of camellias here." Yiyi shouted at her from afar.

"It's coming, it's coming." Ling'er took her sword and ran away, and when she came to Yiyi's side, there were really a few camellia trees, blooming, pink, rose, and red, and they were also very beautiful.

"Shall I pick one for you and put it on your head?" Yiyi looked at Ling'er and asked.

"I don't want it, can I bring one for you? This one looks good, you see. Ling'er pinched a rose-red, and the petals were a little delicate.

"I don't want it either, my Batur is not here, it's boring for me to bring it, you show it to Ah Jue." Yiyi plucked the flower.

"I don't want that, I want this, I like red. Look at this one. Ling'er plucked a big red camellia.

"Shall I plug it for you?" Yiyi asked.

"Don't, don't, I'll just take it." Ling'er wanted to go back to Ah Jue and plug it in for her.

"You, then you can put it in Senior Brother Sheng's basket." Yiyi turned around to look for Sheng'er's shadow, but she couldn't find it.

"I'll take it, I don't know herbs anyway, and I don't know how to hunt." Ling'er suddenly felt that she was bored, Ah Jue was not there, and she couldn't be interested.

"Ling'er, shall I take you to hunt rabbits?" Shi Mi appeared, with a sword pinned to his waist and a bow and arrow in his hand.

"Where did you get your bow and arrows?" Ling'er asked curiously when she saw this guy.

"I asked my master to borrow them, and he had all weapons." Shi Mi rarely spoke to him in a harmonious voice, and he was a little embarrassed. "Let's go, take you to hunt rabbits."

"Okay, I'll see where Zuozuo is, I'll take him with me." Ling'er made excuses for herself.

"Let's go, let's go together, Zuozuo and Shi Gong, he is waiting to see Shi Gong hunt the big guy." Yiyi really wants to go rabbit hunting.

"Okay, let's go." Ling'er put the flowers into the chest of her clothes, and when she went back, she asked Ah Jue to bring them to her.

The three of them walked deeper into the woods: "The trees here are tall and the leaves are big. "Ling'er Observer.

"It means that it's warm here, and there is plenty of sunshine and rain." Shi Mi answered.

"You even know that." Ling'er turned her face to look at him.

"My master mentioned two words to me just now." Shi Mi is now learning and selling, a little embarrassed, scratching his ears and cheeks there.

"Haha, that's not bad." Ling'er said.

"Shigong also said that he would wait for the summer to take us to the snow-capped mountains to have a look, there are perennial snow-covered places, you look at the higher mountains over there, and the white ones are snow-covered." Shi Mi heard the praise, and then flirted with his tongue.

"It's nice to live here." Ling'er looked up at the sky and sighed, her hand was dragged by Yiyi, and when she looked down, Shi Mi had already picked up the bow and arrow, Yiyi signaled her to silence, Ling'er followed the direction of Shimi's arrow, and saw a small elk, a very small one, Ling'er grabbed Shi Mi, shook his head at him, approached him, and said on his ear: "Such a small elk, don't shoot it to death, let's not startle the snake and capture it alive?" ”

Shi Mi was so close for the first time, raised his eyes to look at Yiyi and then looked at Ling'er, nodded, the three of them formed an encirclement, and slowly approached the little elk, and when it found that there was danger around and was about to escape, Shi Mi pounced and hugged it, picked up its four feet, and the fawn struggled twice, looking at Ling'er with innocent and pitiful eyes.

"Ahh Ling'er covered her eyes.

"You are so merciful, how will you be an emperor in the future!" Yiyi disagreed.

"Look at it, look at it, look at it." Ling'er turned around and didn't dare to look, a little unbearable.

"The prey is the prey, what eyes to see!" Yiyi stepped forward to help Shi Mi tie up the fawn.

"Hey, I can't stand it, I'll go back." Ling'er regretted that she had just proposed to be captured alive, if she had shouted loudly just now, it was estimated that the deer would have run away, she looked at it like this, and she didn't want to stay here, leaving Shi Mi and Yiyi to go back, this is not too far from the place where she lives, go back to find Ah Jue, Ah Jue will not ask her to go hunting, he will go out and stay in the house by himself.

Thinking about walking like this, he didn't say goodbye to Shi Mi and Yiyi, and when they tied up the fawn, Ling'er was about to go away.

"Ling'er, what are you going to do? Shigong is not allowed to act alone! Shi Mi shouted loudly.

Ling'er glanced back at them: "I'll go back, go back to the house, go to help cook the rice, it's not far from here, I can do it!" After saying that, he ran away without looking back.

"She originally thought that Ah Jue was not there, and she didn't have the heart to hunt here, but this time she found an excuse." Yiyi looked at the direction she ran away and said with a smile.

"Ah Jue, open the door, I'm back." Ling'er ran back to the courtyard in one go.

Ah Jue heard the sound and came to open the door, opened the door, and saw Ling'er panting: "Why are you back?" ”

"I'm here to help cook the rice, I can't cook the food, I will burn the fire." Ling'er held her chest and calmed down for a long time, went in and closed the door, and went to the stove.

"What's going on?" Ah Jue followed behind and asked.

"Nothing." Ling'er wanted to say but didn't want to say, so she turned her face to look at Ah Jue: "Ah Jue, just now the three of us caught a fawn, so small, it looked at me so pitiful, I wanted to let it go, Yiyi and Shi Mi were unwilling." Ling'er was still a little aggrieved as she spoke, and Ah Jue stepped forward and hugged her in her arms.

"I know you're kind, hey!" Jue sighed.

Ling'er also felt a little embarrassed, she didn't know where her husband was, and how bad it was to see it, so she pushed Ah Jue away, took out the camellia from her arms and said, "Look, did I pick this beautiful flower, you brought it for me." ”

Ling'er stretched out her head to Ah Jue, and Ah Jue picked up the flower and pinned it behind her.

"Shall I take care of it?" Ling'er wants to go.

"Don't go, you can't see it, don't be behind, I can see it. Women are pleasing to themselves, I just look good, go, cook food. Ah Jue took Ling'er's hand and went to the stove.
