Chapter 500: All Living Beings Are Suffering
They hurried back to Zhao Kingdom, the carriage and horses were tiring, Shen Lanyue was a woman after all, and her body was a little unbearable after a few days, but her mind was very incomparable, although she was tired, she could grit her teeth and persevere, but she was bitter Dongdong, Dongdong was already weak in premature birth, and the continuous rush made him even weaker.
Fortunately, their group had already reached the edge of the Zhao Kingdom, and it would only take a day or two to end this journey.
Seeing that she was getting closer to Zhao Guo, the customs and customs on the road were becoming more and more familiar, and Shen Lanyue's heart was a little more settled.
On this day, the carriage drove to a small road, and there were few houses on the road, and Dongdong suddenly began to cry. Shen Lanyue coaxed and coaxed, but the child still cried.
"What's wrong with Lan Yue? Are you hungry? Zhao Wu opened the curtain and saw the woman holding the child, frowning slightly, looking a little worried.
"I guess I'm hungry." Shen Lanyue reluctantly put down the rattle in her hand and sighed: "It's just that the carriage is full of cold food, and the child has some discomfort in his stomach and can't eat it." ”
After that, he looked at Zhao Wu who was worried: "It's okay, I'll coax you again, let's hurry first and go home early." ”
Zhao Wu felt a little sorry for his wife and children, but he could only helplessly put down the curtain and continue to hurry, because this road was deserted, and he had more than enough heart and strength.
Dongdong cried, crying and crying, his voice gradually weakened, not that he stopped crying, but that he cried for too long, and his breath weakened.
Shen Lanyue's heart seemed to be frying on fire, urgent and painful. She was so busy that she didn't notice that the carriage stopped, until Zhao Wu was calling her through the curtain, she came back to her senses, lifted the curtain and saw that the car was parked in front of a farmer's house.
"Come down and rest, I'll go ask for some food for Dongdong." Zhao Wu gave her a reassuring smile and stretched out his hand towards her. Shen Lanyue's heart warmed, and the anxiety just now was also dispelled by this smile. She couldn't help but smile faintly, put her hand in his palm, and got out of the carriage with the child in her arms.
It's just that this farmhouse is quiet, and Zhao Wu shouted a few times at the door, but no one answered. But they weren't in a hurry, because the door was just hidden, and it could be seen that the master shouldn't have gone far, but Shen Lanyue and Zhao Wu were courteous, and the master didn't come back, and they would never step into the courtyard for half a step.
Through the fence, you can see a few chickens walking leisurely around in the yard, pecking rice from time to time, Dongdong lying on the fence, his black eyes are staring at this little living thing, and he forgot to cry for a while.
Shen Lanyue looked around, and saw that this farmer's back was against the bamboo forest, there were a few peach trees planted in front of the door, and there should be a small stream not far away, where the crisp sound of the stream could be heard.
In this troubled world, there is such a farmhouse that can be in a corner of peace, without contention with the world, and the scenery is picturesque, it is really a paradise.
Shen Lanyue looked at it, her face involuntarily revealed a trace of yearning, and suddenly a hand grabbed her, she turned her head to look, only to see Zhao Wu looking at herself with a gentle expression, as if she knew what she was thinking, the man comforted softly: "In the future, when we are old, we will also find such a place, work at sunrise, return at sunset, plant peach blossoms in our hands, and enjoy the sunset together." ”
Such a simple wish, Shen Lanyue couldn't help but wet her eyes when she heard it. It sounds simple, but both of them know how extravagant it is. It's just that she still nodded and responded, "Okay." ”
When the world is peaceful, when they are so strong that no one can endanger their lives, and no one can control their stay. Only then will they be truly free. First Literary Network
"Who are you?" A female voice broke the silence for a moment, and when the two looked back, they saw a village woman in coarse linen clothes, carrying a basket of bamboo shoots, looking at them with some curiosity.
"Eldest sister, we are passing through here, the child is hungry and has been crying, can you give some food and coax the child?"
Shen Lanyue said earnestly, but the village woman's eyes fell on the child, Dongdong was white and tender, staring at her big eyes and pouting her mouth, looking extremely cute.
The village woman looked at the child lovingly, then smiled heartily and beckoned: "Okay, you can go in with me, it's just that our farmer's food is coarse, and I hope you don't dislike it." ”
The two of them, although they are not gorgeously dressed, can be seen to be exquisite in materials at a closer look, especially the child's clothes, which are used in fine silk, and the village woman knows that this family of three is prominent, but in this chaotic world, she only thinks that they are a big family who has come to flee.
"Dare to ask what the eldest sister is called?" The two of them followed the village woman into the house, which was simple but very clean, and it was evident that the hostess must have been very industrious.
"Hey, you can just call me Sister Wang, there is nothing to eat at home, can I go and cook a bowl of millet porridge for the child now? Do you want to eat together? ”
This eldest sister Wang was warm and simple, Shen Lanyue just wanted to refuse, but she said to herself: "I think you should have been on the road for a long time, right?" Eat something to pad your stomach, this hungry stomach, not to mention children, the adult's body can't stand it! ”
"We still have some dry food on our wagon..."
"Since you're at my house, let's have some hot food together!" As soon as the words fell, Sister Wang went to the kitchen without saying anything.
Shen Lanyue was a little helpless, but more grateful, looking at Zhao Wu and the two looked at each other and smiled.
After a while, the steaming millet porridge was on the table, and Dongdong was playing with the chickens outside, but as soon as he smelled the aroma of the porridge, he ran back and sat upright on the stool to drink the porridge.
Even if she was very hungry, the child did not forget the etiquette, and Sister Wang watched from the sidelines, and she loved it even more.
"This child is really sensible, but I don't have a son and a half daughter under my knees, if only my future child would be so cute." Sister Wang's words were full of envy, Shen Lanyue was a little surprised, this Sister Wang doesn't look young, why hasn't she given birth yet? Could it be that there is some hidden disease in the body?
Thinking like this, and because she received the favor of others, she couldn't help but take Sister Wang's wrist. Sister Wang only thought that she was holding her hand, and she didn't expect her to know how to heal, but after a while, Shen Lanyue withdrew her hand, and there was nothing unusual from the pulse, maybe the problem was with the male host.
When asked again, the male owner of the family was chopping wood on the mountain and would not come back until dark, so Shen Lanyue had no choice but to give up.
After drinking the porridge, Dongdong returned to his lively appearance, Shen Lanyue saw that the opportunity was rare, and then she had to continue to hurry, so she asked Zhao Wu to accompany the child to walk around the neighborhood and breathe fresh air. She chatted with Sister Wang in the house for a while, and heard Sister Wang's feelings: "This year's harvest is not good, there are too many natural and man-made disasters, and there are too many sufferings this year!" ”
She didn't know what to say to comfort Sister Wang, the people are suffering, the people are suffering, the people are fighting, and it is always the people who are suffering.
