Chapter 308: The Secret of the Hut
Under the moonlight, Huo Yun stood tall and jade, standing at the door, and could show a face as white as jade, with a gentle smile, looking at the little girl in front of him, "Xiaoyu, why are you standing at the door?" Isn't it cold if you don't go back here and blow the cold wind? ”
The little girl called Xiaoyu glanced at Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng in a daze, turned around to complain to Huo Yun, stretched out a small hand and pointed at the two of them and said, "Brother Yun, look, these two people don't know where they came from?" Standing at our door, not knowing what they are going to do? ”
Huo Yun glanced up at the two of them, and his expression was a little stagnant, and he seemed a little incredulous. At this time, it was useless to hide, Xue Rou helplessly pulled Yuan Junfeng forward, "Brother Huo, what are you doing here?" ”
Huo Yun squatted down and picked up the little girl, "Let's go in first, Xiaoyu is still sick, she can't blow the cold wind, if you have anything to say, I'll explain it to you." ”
Yuan Junfeng stretched out his hand to hold Xue Rou's hand, and the two of them followed behind Huo Yun and entered the door.
This thatched house is not only dilapidated on the outside, but also dilapidated on the inside, and it can be said that it is a family with four walls. There was almost nothing left except a table, a few stools, a long bunk that went straight to the east and west.
Probably because the little girl was sick, there was a small fire in the middle of the room, and the one who was too hot stayed aside, and sat by the fire in the cold, Huo Yun hugged Xiaoyu, picked up the hem of his clothes, and sat on the stool closer to the fire, the bamboo stool was too low, and it was covered with dust, and the hem of the clothes also fell to the ground. As if he didn't care, Huo Yun sat down by himself, took a stick and turned out a few potatoes from the fire, and said softly to the little girl in his arms, "Does Xiaoyu eat potatoes?" I'll peel it to you. ”
Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng looked at the decoration of this room, obviously writing the four big characters of poverty and poverty, and when they heard Huo Yun speak, they noticed that the little girl he was holding in his arms had big and bright eyes, although her cheeks were a little dirty, she couldn't hide her good looks, and she was a rare beauty.
Xiao Yu didn't answer Huo Yun's words, and a pair of bright black grape-like eyes only stared at the two strangers who suddenly visited at night, curious and puzzled. There may also be doubts, why did these two people come to such a poor place? It's weird.
Huo Yun also noticed her gaze, turned his head and saw the two people who were stunned, they didn't know where to put their hands, and couldn't help but sigh, "Sit down, Miss Xue, Yuan Gongzi." There are some potatoes in the fire, and if you want to eat them, go and peel them yourself, and I will not serve them. ”
He reached out and picked up a potato, "Xiaoyu, can my brother peel one for you?" ”
Xiaoyu nodded obediently, remembered something, and said, "What about grandpa?" Does Grandpa have anything to eat? ”
Huo Yun smiled, "Of course Grandpa has something to eat." We're still boiling porridge, you forgot. ”
Only then did Xue Rou notice the other people in the room, because there were not many people sitting around the fire, only one or two children, so none of the people in the dark noticed.
She looked closely and found that in addition to the children, there were also old people, all dressed in shabby clothes and crammed into one room. At first glance, he is a miserable person. There are almost five or six different children, big and small, who don't look the same, and they shouldn't be brothers and sisters.
At this time, the old man sitting on the side finally came over, he was still holding a burden in his hand, Xue Rou recognized it sharply, this was the one Huo Yun took out tonight, it turned out that Huo Yun came out to send the burden?
The old man sighed and sat next to Huo Yun, "Xiaoyun, why did you send us so many things?" If you have money, keep the flowers for yourself. Don't give us so much, just a few people, it won't take much. ”
Huo Yun shook his head and said disapprovingly, "Blame me for coming back too late, and I didn't find you later, so that the eldest lady passed away like this." Now I want to help take care of the children, so uncle, you can take the things. It's not anything of value. ”
The old man had no choice but to accept the things, and his words were full of gratitude, "Xiaoyun, you are a kind person, and there will definitely be a good reward." ”
Huo Yun smiled, "I just want a safe life, and I don't need any good rewards." ”
The old man looked at Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng, looked at Huo Yun and asked puzzledly, "I just saw you talking to the two of them, do you know each other?" Is it Xiaoyun's friend? ”
Huo Yun then remembered the people around him, stretched out his hand and introduced, "This is my friend, didn't I tell you, I borrowed it from the house of the divine doctor outside, these are the two apprentices of the divine doctor, and they are also doctors, this is Doctor Xue, and this is Doctor Yuan." Miss Xue, Brother Yuan, this is Uncle Nie. ”
After listening to Huo Yun's introduction, Uncle Nie also smiled on his face, wrinkles piled up together, but he was kind and kind, "Ah, it turned out to be Doctor Xue and Doctor Yuan." ”
Xue Rou hurriedly said, "Uncle, you just call me Xue Rou, don't be so polite." ”
Yuan Junfeng also said, "Yes, we are too young, you are old, just call your name." Call me Junfeng. ”
Uncle Nie smiled even more happily, "Okay, okay, Xiaoyun's friend is really the same as Xiaoyun." ”
Huo Yun said, "Uncle, can you go and see the porridge?" Are these children hungry? Look at Xiaoyu, what kind of greed has she become. ”
Xiao Yu, who was holding the potatoes and gnawing them seriously, was not happy, and pointed with her little hand, "Brother Yun, why don't you talk about him?" Look at Xiao Qi, the saliva is about to flow out! ”
Xiao Qi, who was sitting on the other side of the fire, said unhappily, "Who is drooling?" You're drooling! ”
Xue Rou snorted and laughed, "Where is the porridge?" I'll check it out. ”
Huo Yun looked at her with some surprise, "In the backyard, you can go out through the back door and have a look." ”
Xue Rou got up, went to the backyard and brought porridge in, and under Huo Yun's guidance, she found the bowl in the cabinet, and added a bowl of hot porridge by herself. Sitting by the fire, a lot of dust will fall in the bowl, but it is all poor, and no one dislikes it.
Yuan Junfeng didn't have much of a good background, so naturally he didn't care about these things, but rolled up his sleeves and blended into the crowd faster than Xue Rou.
Xue Rou had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her psychology was guilty and shy. After seeing me, I realized that Huo Yun was not what they imagined at all, and he didn't come out to do bad things, but instead came out to do good things, which made Xue Rou feel very uncomfortable and felt uncomfortable for his doubts.
She helped Huo Yun peel potatoes for the children and share a bowl of porridge for everyone, and under the firelight, the smiles on the children's faces were sincere and bright, as beautiful as the moon outside.
It wasn't until after the fire was extinguished that Huo Yun lit a lamp and continued to illuminate it, and Xue Rou was relieved, "Brother Huo, this is a thatched house, how can you rest assured that you can light a fire in the house, what if it burns?" ”
Huo Yun shook his head, "With me, I can't burn up." If the fire is burned outside, this group of children will definitely run out again, and they will get sick when they run out, but they can't take care of it. ”
Xiao Qi pouted, "Who said that, we are very well-behaved, so we won't run out." ”
Huo Yun scratched his nose, "Who sneaked out to play last time and fell a big heel?" ”
Xiao Qi ran away, not admitting it, "I don't know, it's not me anyway." ”
Xue Rou smiled, "What a naughty child." ”
On the other side, Yuan Junfeng was also taking care of the old man, "Uncle, do you want to eat more?" ”
Uncle Nie shook his head, "Enough is enough, I can't eat any more." I'm going to go out for a walk, and it's true that I'm going to eat and drink. ”
Yuan Junfeng said, "Then I'll go out for a walk with you." ”
Yuan Junfeng walked out with Uncle Nie in his arms, the moonlight outside flowed on the grass, which was extraordinarily bright, Uncle Nie suddenly said, "Little Yuan, why did you suddenly come here tonight to see us?" ”
Yuan Junfeng was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Didn't Huo Yun already say it?" We're here to help take care of the kids. ”
Uncle Nie shook his head, "You're all dishonest. How old am I, I have seen so much with these eyes, how could I not see that you are lying. As soon as you came in, I could see that your expression was wrong, an acquaintance must be an acquaintance, but I'm afraid you ran over without consulting Huo Yun, right? ”
Yuan Junfeng was helpless, "Everything is for you to see, it is true." We didn't tell Huo Yun when we came out tonight, we came with him secretly, we wanted to see what he was doing? ”
Uncle Nie looked at the sky and let out a long sigh, "Xiaoyun, this person has a heavy mind, and no one believes it." It's normal that I didn't tell you, he has been withdrawn since he was a child, and he doesn't like to socialize with other children, so he plays alone. If we hadn't met again years later, I wouldn't have recognized him. He looked like a little girl when he was a child, but he didn't expect to be more like him when he grew up. Alas. ”
Yuan Junfeng said in his heart, because he was originally a girl, but you didn't see it.
Uncle Nie said, "It's good for Huo Yun to have you with him now, I just took care of him for a while when I was a child, and he has a kind heart and can help me." I see how he's doing now, and I'm happy. I hope you're all doing. ”
Yuan Junfeng asked, "How did you meet him?" ”
Uncle Nie shook his head, "This is his privacy, I don't know if he wants to tell you, if you want to know, you can ask him." ”
Yuan Junfeng knew that it was inconvenient for him to say, so he didn't ask more, the two of them took a walk and returned to the thatched house.
Huo Yun opened the baggage, took out the food and clothing inside and distributed it to the children, one set for each person, and the food was also evenly distributed. There was also rice, noodles and meat in the corner, which was enough for these people to eat for a while.
When Uncle Nie saw it, he was naturally very grateful, and the atmosphere was very warm and harmonious. In the end, the children sat around and sang loudly, and everyone was harmonious.
Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng were clapping on the side, looking at the smiles of the children, and they also felt warm in their hearts.
