Chapter 61: The Ancient Road is hot
The little baby rushed in, put his hand into the tank, groped for a while, and pulled out a big carp from it, smiled at the young man, turned around and ran out of the door.
The young man was so angry that he scolded: "What a naughty baby, how to put fish in the water tank!" ”
With a humble look on his face, he told Mu Ziqi that the water was undrinkable.
Mu Ziqi is a child who grew up in the countryside, in the countryside, drinking river water is a common thing, there is no shortage of fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs in the river.
The young man refused, and went outside to fetch a load of water.
took a golden water scoop, scooped a scoop of water in the bucket, and handed it to Mu Ziqi with both hands.
Mu Ziqi wanted to take it with one hand, but when he saw the other party's respectful appearance, he stretched out his hands and took it.
He just wanted to drink two sips, the meaning was fine, he didn't want to, he drank it in one sip, he only felt that the water quality was unusually clear and delicious, extremely sweet, and the water was refreshing.
He really wanted to ask: What kind of water are you, although I am not very old, but for as long as I can remember, I have never drunk such delicious water!
When the words came to his mouth, he swallowed it back, thinking to himself, it's better to be steady, don't be open-mouthed, and save yourself from being blamed.
He secretly thought that the reason was nothing more than the fact that the ancient ecological environment was not polluted by industry, so the water was so delicious.
Thinking about it, before he knew it, a large scoop of water was all drunk by him.
The young man thought that he was really thirsty, and it seemed that he had not drunk enough, so he scooped him again, and Mu Ziqi wanted to drink it, but when he touched his stomach, he was already very tall, so he waved his hand.
"Although the guest officer drinks with his belly open, he doesn't need to spend money on water here." The young man persuaded him again.
Mu Ziqi thought to himself, you are really verbose, don't let people drink it if they don't drink it, is it possible that your water can't be kicked out, you have to let people drink it as soon as possible?
Mu Ziqi refused again.
Mu Ziqi misunderstood, in fact, this young man is an extremely enthusiastic person, and he is like this to everyone.
At this moment, a middle-aged man came into the courtyard.
The young man called him the second uncle, and the second uncle came in and asked, "Chu Sheng, do you have salt at home?" I want to borrow some. ”
It turns out his name is Brute!
Mu Ziqi thought in his heart, this ancient person is quite interesting, and there is a name for it?
Only then did I know that the surname of the family was Chu, and his name was Chu Sheng.
Chu Sheng went to his cupboard to take a look, took out a jar, shook it, and found that it was empty, Chu Sheng's brows furrowed, looked back at the second uncle, and found that the other party was looking out of the door, because he was still leading a child, this child was playing with the dog outside, probably for fear of being bitten by the dog, a little uneasy, and kept staring at him.
Chu Sheng said, "Wait a minute, the cupboard is used up, but I still have it in the back room, so go in and get it." ”
Mu Ziqi found that Chu Sheng did not enter the inner room, but quietly went out through the back door, and after a while, he returned, holding a bowl of salt in his hand and handing it to the second uncle.
Then, a woman followed up at the back door and said to Chu Sheng: "I'm not in a hurry, you can use the salt as you like, I still have it at home." ”
Mu Ziqi understood that he borrowed salt from a neighbor, and said that it was his own, so he gave it to the second uncle.
Oh, Mu Ziqi suddenly remembered a very famous story in the Autumn Period, he had read an article about a young man who was a fellow villager of the sage Confucius, who was upright, helpful, and trustworthy in his dealings with friends, and was widely praised by his neighbors.
He knew that later, after Confucius knew about the young man's borrowing of vinegar, he criticized him as the boss of the township for being dishonest and a bit deceitful.
But the young man didn't think so, he thought that it was right to help others, although he lied, but the starting point was right, isn't there beauty in lies?
Mu Ziqi thought about it, don't look at Confucius as a sage, now it seems that some views are still debatable, just say things, young people actually do the right thing, but it has attracted Confucius's criticism, now analyzed, it is generally believed that Confucius's views are incorrect, enthusiasm is a good thing, and it should be promoted.
Chu Sheng seems to be the same as that young man, he is a warm-hearted person, I heard that Mu Ziqi has no place to live for the time being, and immediately wants to vacate his other house and keep him, Mu Ziqi heard this, he didn't want to agree, and thought, what's wrong with this person, you know, I met him in Pingshui, I never knew him, how could he dare to let a stranger live in his house casually, if this is in modern times, it is simply unthinkable.
A few days ago, there was a news mile on TV, saying that it was a middle-aged woman who met a male netizen on the Internet and took it home in a few days.
It should be said that this woman's deeds have gone too far, and as a single woman, for what purpose did she take a big man to live in her home so boldly, and arranged a separate room for him.
But if you think about it carefully, it may also be that the woman is optimistic about the man, but even so, you can't rush it, at least you have to date for a while, and it's not too late to think about further developing the relationship after you feel that you have some understanding between each other.
Some people say that this woman is not serious, so it seems that this is not an exaggeration.
As a result, you can imagine what happened next, and the next day, the man swept away all the valuable things in her house and said goodbye.
The woman regretted it and shouted that she was fooled and immediately went to the police.
When she learned the truth of the matter, even the police criticized her for being careless in making friends and not being so reckless.
Some people say that she is still lucky, if she meets some ruthless gangsters, maybe something big will happen!
I couldn't stand Chu Sheng's enthusiastic retention, and after thinking about it, I had been in a thrilling state for the first few times, always tired of running for my life, and I couldn't stop worrying all day, this time I came to a quiet and peaceful place, why not relax my tense nerves.
So, I agreed.
When Chu Sheng saw it, he was extremely happy, and immediately got busy, Mu Ziqi saw this situation, and felt that he couldn't go, so he also cleaned up with him.
The two of them moved their things out in a short time, and decorated the room with a clean and tidy window.
Chu Sheng was really real, and he took out a new quilt in his house, and Mu Ziqi saw it and said that he wouldn't let anything.
He thought to himself, he was only temporarily living here, and he didn't know how many days he could live, maybe he would leave tomorrow, how could he be embarrassed to build someone's new quilt?
Seeing that he insisted on refusing, Chu Sheng couldn't, so he had to change a half-new bed and send it over.
Chu Sheng and Mu Ziqi hit it off at first sight, and even had a feeling of hating each other.
He told Mu Ziqi that he had five brothers, all of whom had started a family and moved out alone, and he was the only one with his parents.
In the past few days, his parents went to visit a relative's house in a foreign country, leaving him alone at home, which happened to be his arrival, and it happened that the two of them were not alone together.
This Chu Sheng was also very talkative, and after talking for a while, he lowered his voice mysteriously, and he whispered to Mu Ziqi that he was actually not born to his parents now, and as for who his parents were, he didn't know, but he heard that his parents gave him away because they couldn't afford to support him.
Mu Ziqi was very surprised, he was really interesting, when they met for the first time, why did they say anything?
He wanted to ask him if he was still jealous of his parents, and he shouldn't be so ruthless and give himself to outsiders, but after thinking about it for a while, he endured it again.
Chu Sheng told Mu Ziqi that he had not yet been married, and when the neighbors saw that he was kind, they all wanted to build a bridge for him, but they introduced a few, and they all failed one by one because of his poor family situation.
However, Chu Sheng didn't take this to heart, he said, marriage has to pay attention to fate.
"I don't know each other by chance, but I have a chance to meet thousands of miles away, right?" Chu Sheng said to Mu Ziqi with a smile, this young man has a round face in his life, his eyes are not big, he smiles, narrows into two lines, and two dimples appear on his cheeks, giving people a really interesting feeling.
Mu Ziqi felt very strange, how could his words be the same as those of modern people, and then thought about it, in fact, many of the current languages have been handed down from ancient times, and have been carried forward by generations of people, and are still used today.
So it's no surprise.
Chu Sheng said for a long time, and during this period, Mu Ziqi couldn't interject at all.
After Chu Sheng finished talking about himself, he said that others, their mouths always refused to be idle, from all over the world, from all over the world, to the east and west, and to talk endlessly.
Mu Ziqi felt very surprised, it seems that he is not very old, how can he be so knowledgeable, it seems that it is not unrelated to Confucius's fellow villagers, and this is also proved from his words, he told Mu Ziqi that in fact, he didn't go to school for a day, just because he and several people in the village often went to Confucius to play, and helped Confucius do some work.
Mu Ziqi thought to himself, the old saying is really true: those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.
It is different from the neighbors and fellow villagers of the saints, and they are different from ordinary people in their manners and deeds.
Early the next morning, before Mu Ziqi got up, an old man came to Chu Sheng's house, he looked not young, he walked tremblingly, and his language was not very clear, and he said a few words to Chu Sheng, his voice was very small, and the country accent was too heavy, and Mu Ziqi didn't hear a word clearly.
After the old man left, Chu Sheng cleaned up, prepared to go out, and asked Mu Ziqi to go with him.
Mu Ziqi came here to be bored, and he was very happy to hear that he was going out.
Chu Sheng launched a wheelbarrow in the wing, and the two came to the next family together, and when they went in, it was the old man again, it turned out that this old man had a distant relative who gave him some pork, because he was alone, and he couldn't eat so much for a while, so he wanted to ask Chu Sheng to help him go to the market to sell it, and Chu Sheng naturally agreed happily.
Who would have thought that this trip would cause trouble.
