Chapter 370: Old Lady Qingshan
Originally, his words were serious, but looking at Yin Xun's evil smile, Chang Shouyu unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Seeing Yin Xun approaching step by step, Chang Shouyu retreated step by step, not sure what Yin Xun wanted to do.
After retreating to the table on the side, Chang Shouyu came back to his senses and had no way back.
Yin Xun looked at Chang Shouyu's appearance, the smile in his eyes was even worse, and he stretched out his hand and gently slid down Chang Shouyu's face, extremely gentle, making Chang Shouyu's body tremble, and hurriedly pinned his face to the side.
"What an elm head!" Yin Xun gently knocked on Chang Shouyu's head, and said with a smile, putting some distance between him and Chang Shouyu, "You just need to have more decorations on the portrait, but anyone who sees something similar can send it over for General Ben to see." When the time comes, will you say that it will be crooked? The temptation of about 10,000 taels of gold, you should not be able to resist! ”
Chang Shouyu eased his nerves, stood up straight, looked at Yin Xun's appearance, and couldn't help blushing when he thought of the scene of the two people just now, "My subordinates know that there will not be such a big good thing, I am just a small person, where can I afford so much silver?" ”
"Humph! It's kind of self-aware! Yin Xun said with a smile, although it sounded uncomfortable, but when he looked at the smile on Yin Xun's face, Chang Shouyu couldn't help but be stunned.
It turns out that there is such a beautiful time for men.
Yin Xun sat on the chair, looking at Chang Shouyu still looking at himself in a daze, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed, "Why don't you hurry up and prepare!" Are you waiting for General Ben to do these things! ”
"Huh? Subordinates obey! Chang Shouyu came back to his senses, said to Yin Xun and returned a salute, and retreated.
Until he got out of Yin Xun's house, Chang Shouyu still felt a little like a different world, and gently stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, which was the place where Yin Xun had played just now. smiled to himself, until the people around him reminded him, Chang Shouyu woke up from a big dream in a trance, and hurriedly went to do things.
When Wei Zhaohua and the others stopped again, it was already evening. What is different from usual is that since seeing the green mountains and green waters at noon, several people have been surrounded by mountains along the way. Originally, I thought that when I rested at night, I should also take the sky as the quilt and the earth as the seat, but I never thought that I would actually see a wooden house at dusk.
At the door of the wooden house was a pair of old men, both of whom were dressed in coarse cloth and had patches on their bodies, and the old man was holding a basin in his hand, and when he looked closely, there were a few small fish still alive and fluttering inside. The old woman was holding wild vegetables in her hand, thinking that it must have been when the two of them were about to cook.
"Old man, I'm waiting to travel here, I don't know if I can spend the night here? If there is a disturbance, this is just a little heart, and please ask the old man to help. ”
Wei Songting stopped the carriage, walked in the direction of the two people, bowed humbly, and did not forget to take out a bag of silver from his sleeve. Hearing the words, the two old men turned around and looked at the carriage not far away, and smiled and pushed away Wei Songting's hand holding the silver.
"It's all guests from afar, so why be so polite! Since we are here, it also means that we have some fate, although we come in and rest. I'm about to cook right now, and I'm cleaning up the house for a few people to rest! ”
The old man said with a smile, with a little simplicity in his eyes. Wei Songting was slightly stunned and thanked him gently.
The group got out of the carriage, and the old man smiled and led everyone into the house, made tea and put it on the table.
"A few guests drink some tea first, there are only two of us old people here, it's not convenient to do anything, please don't worry." As the old man spoke, Ping Huan hurriedly waved his hand and stepped forward to support the old man's body.
"The old man doesn't have to be so polite, we are not pampered people. It is not easy to be taken in by the elderly, how can it be troublesome for the elderly? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! It's too slow for two people to cook! Why don't we help you? Isn't it rude for us to sit here and eat together? Zhaoyi also got up from his seat, with a look of justice on his face.
The old man smiled and shook his head, "A few people with extraordinary temperaments can't do such a job if you think about it." Although we sat well, my wife and I were lonely, and it was rare to be lively today, so how could we get a few guests to help? ”
Rao is old man repeatedly refused, and he couldn't help the double resistance of Ping Huan and Zhaoyi. In desperation, the old man still smiled and took the two of them to do things together. Teaching two people to make fish together is to remove fish scales, which has already made the three of them busy, and there is a burst of laughter from time to time, which makes people feel very comfortable.
Wei Songting is living on the side, and even Shen Cuobai is helping on the side.
Wei Zhaohua was the only one who quietly looked at the old woman who was sitting on the side choosing vegetables, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the old woman, but still didn't see any reaction from the old woman.
"The girl doesn't need to be tempted, the old woman's eyes are already blind." The old woman said softly.
Wei Zhaohua withdrew her hand, and the old woman pointed to the seat on the side, and said softly, "What is the girl doing standing?" Why don't you sit back and rest? Presumably, it should be very tiring to travel. ”
"Although my mother-in-law is blind, she can still clearly know what is going on outside, and she must have been living here for many years, right?" Wei Zhaohua asked softly, sat next to the old woman, and was about to reach out to help the old woman choose vegetables, but was suddenly stopped by the old woman.
The old woman smiled softly, and stopped her movements, "The girl is right, I have said a lot here, it has been thirty or forty years. Even if you can't see it, you can't be familiar with what is already familiar here. There are many things that you don't need to look at, and you already know them in your heart. The fragrance on the girl's body is not bad, and she shouldn't be an ordinary person, so don't do this kind of rough work, right? ”
Wei Zhaohua looked at the old woman's old hands, perhaps because of the perennial work, with a thick layer of calluses on them. Gently stretched out her hand to hold the old woman's hand, which made the old woman slightly stunned.
"I don't know the difference between ordinary and unusual people, I just know that there is no such thing as unearned. Even though we haven't done anything like this, it's not impossible to do it. ”
The old woman listened to Wei Zhaohua's words, nodded with a smile, and didn't say anything.
Wei Zhaohua let go of the old woman's hand and helped the old woman choose vegetables little by little. Although he didn't know how to do it, Wei Zhaohua still didn't ask, just silently learned the appearance of the old woman, and did it like a smooth thing.
The cool wind blowing over hit everyone's faces, and they only felt extremely comfortable.
"I take the liberty of asking, I don't know how old the girl is, but she is married to someone?" The old woman spoke softly, but she was a little hurried, as if she felt a little rude, and did not forget to continue, "If the girl finds it inconvenient, you don't have to answer." The old woman just hasn't talked to outsiders for too long, and it is inevitable that she will say something wrong, don't mind, girl! ”
Wei Zhaohua smiled softly, his eyes fell on Shen Cuobai's body not far away, and a trace of melancholy flashed.
"Although it has been 18 years, I still have no partner. This kind of thing, no hurry. ”
The old woman nodded, and instead of laughing at Wei Zhaohua's age, she smiled, "What's the need to worry about this kind of thing?" No matter how old a woman is, it's good to always meet the person she likes! Marriage matters, you can't listen to all people, but also rely on the will of God! ”
Wei Zhaohua was surprised by the old woman's open-mindedness, and couldn't help but smile as well, and said softly, "How could my mother-in-law settle here?" There are few people in this place, and living here, can my mother-in-law have an interesting life? ”
The old woman's face was a little sad, and the movements in her hands stopped, and she looked in the direction of the river. There are waves that rise and fall, bringing bursts of coolness, or crisp sounds.
"At the beginning, we just traveled through this place, but we didn't think about natural and man-made disasters. My child was only seven years old when he was already buried in the river. For so many years, the old man and I didn't think about leaving, staying here, listening to the sound of the river, maybe we could still feel my daughter's voice and smile. ”
Wei Zhaohua's expression paused, he never thought that the old woman had been here for thirty or forty years because she missed her child. Looking towards the river, it was also a little more abrupt.
"Your daughter'......"
"I know what you're trying to say, but everyone who passes by here will say she's not coming back. Staying here is just a waste of time and doing something useless! But so what, girl! When you become a parent, you may understand that the child will not come back, and here, at least the psychology is steady. If the child had a spirit in heaven, the river would be so cold, and with our company, he would not feel lonely. ”
Wei Zhaohua's heart trembled, "Thirty or forty years, don't you regret it?" ”
"If you regret it, I'm afraid you also regret not taking good care of the child in the first place, right? After so many years, the tears have dried up, and now when I talk about the things of the year, I am not as sad as I was at the beginning. It's just that you can't let go of things, even when you die, you can't let go! ”
The old woman smiled faintly, but it was difficult to hide the pain. If it weren't for the river swallowing up, how could she and her husband end up like this at this time? It is the time when the children are around the knee, but at this time it is lonely until old age.
It's just that the time is long, and I miss it, but it doesn't smooth out the obsession.
The old woman and Wei Zhaohua were talking, and the old man on the side was also talking in peace and joy, and everyone looked in the direction of the river together, and their hearts became heavy.
After half a salary, it was the old woman who took the lead in breaking the silence, and said with a smile, "Look at my mouth, I always say something that I don't like!" Originally, you were here to play, how could you hear such a thing! Let me tell you about the interesting things you have encountered over the years! ”
