"There, put the little girl there, take off her wet clothes and cover it."

Zhao Runzhi's footsteps paused, a flush flashed on his face, and he said.

"Auntie, my sister... I'm still bothering you..."

"Ouch, look at me, I forgot about it, Nier, come out and help my mother."

"Alas... Here it comes. ”

The girl inside answered crisply, and soon lifted the curtain and walked out.

A black and thin little girl, about seven or eight years old, with a pair of big eyes sparkling, exceptionally beautiful, just a little shy, smiled shyly, ashamed to look at the two more, held Shen Junru's arm, and exclaimed, "Ah... Injured? ”

"It's fine, a little injury, thank you aunt."

The room was warmer, Shen Junru regained some sanity a little, thanked the two weakly, and then was helped into the back room.

Zhao Runzhi sent people in and retreated.

The aunt said apologetically.

"Alas, there is no man in the house, and there are no clean clothes, so I'm really sorry sir, or I'll go get some matches and dry my clothes."

In this rural family, where there is a good charcoal fire, in the winter, it will be warmed by the two taels of thin quilts, occasionally pick up some firewood, add a pot, and you can make do.

Fortunately, it is now early spring in April, and it is not so cold.

Seeing that the aunt was going to work, Zhao Runzhi hurriedly pulled the person and said.

"I'm not busy, I'm young and strong, and I'm not in the way. It's just that I wonder if my aunt can make some hot soup so that my sister can drink it to warm up. ”

"Alas, alas, the sweet potatoes I just dug up earlier, and what, I'll bake them for you."

The countrymen are already enthusiastic, and with Zhao Runzhi's silver, they should be greeted with delicious food and drink.

Zhao Runzhi touched his sleeves again, there was still some broken silver, thinking that he would leave it when he left.

When the aunt turned around to go to work, Zhao Runzhi took off the soaked robe, wrung out the water, wiped the water on his head with the coarse cloth that the aunt handed him earlier, and moved to the door of the room, asking in a low voice.

"Are you alright? Need help? ”

Shen Junru inside took off her wet clothes, wore her aunt's old clothes, wrapped in the hard quilt, and for a while, her hands and feet were still cold and unconscious.

Before and after the two lives, most of her life is brocade clothes and jade food, only those years have been grinding not into a person, not to mention a hard quilt, the coldest number nine cold winter, even the leftovers of cold rice have been eaten, thirsty very much, snow, then on the snow to gnaw on the thirst, and finally fell a cold disease, in the winter, stomach, abdomen, knees and other places are twisted pain, those days, now I think about it, I don't know how to survive.

"I'm better, you... You okay? ”

This room is the room of the mother and daughter, although Nier is still young, she is also a girl, and it is really not convenient to let Zhao Runzhi in.

She ripped off the quilt and handed it to Niel, smiling softly.

"Good Nier, can you let this quilt wrap it in the big brother outside, and I'll ask someone to send you two soft and cotton quilts tomorrow, okay?"

Nielle took the quilt, blushed slightly, and nodded.

Even if they didn't send the quilt, she would have done it.

Nier stuffed the quilt to Zhao Runzhi, and she was embarrassed to say more, so she only muttered, "Big sister gave it to you." ”

Then he went back to the back room.

Soon, the aunt brought two bowls of hot tea, and put two slices of ginger in them, which was the best for rural farmers.

There were also two hot sweet potatoes in the basket he carried on his arm.

I didn't want to eat it when I dug it out.

Nile looked at it with a blank eye, her eyes revealing longing, but she was very well-behaved and didn't ask for anything.

Shen Junru was hungry, or did he eat a little in Zhao Runzhi's room at that time, and after this toss, he smelled the sweet potato and felt that the worms in his stomach were screaming.

But she pushed the sweet potato to Little Nier.

She can eat anything she wants, but for Nier, this sweet potato is a rare thing.

Here, it's too poor.

"I'm not hungry, I'll be full after drinking ginger tea, Nier will help my sister eat."

Niel hesitated, but pushed the sweet potato back and shook her head.

"Sister eats, sister is a guest."

This little girl is so likable.

Shen Junru was sure that if she didn't eat it, Xiao Nier would definitely not eat it.

Breaking a small piece, the sweet potato is very soft and baked, and when it is broken, the aroma of the food will spread in an instant.

She handed the large piece to Nil.

"Eat quickly, my sister can't finish eating, but it's going to be wasted."

Nier happily took the sweet potato, and then ran to her aunt, put the sweet potato to her aunt's lips, and said.

"Auntie, eat."

"A-Niang is not hungry, you can eat."

In this way, Shen Bai's family has never said it to Shen Junru, but this does not mean that Shen Bai's family does not love Shen Junru and Shen Yu's sister and brother.

On the contrary, even if it is death, she loves them.

It's a pity that after living for two lifetimes, I couldn't honor my mother well and let her go so uneasy.

Looking at the mother and daughter in front of her, Shen Junru's eyes were a little red.

"What's wrong girl? Is it uncomfortable or what? ”

Shen Junru blinked, blinked the tears in her eyes, and shook her head with a smile.

"No, it's because this ginger tea is too spicy, thank you Auntie and Nier."

"Ouch, you're welcome, you've thanked me a lot. It's too late tonight, so I'll make do with the night. It's just that there is a quilt at home, for the gentleman outside, so he was wronged to make do with the table all night, let's squeeze it, and two old cotton clothes, put together a cover, and the weather will soon be cold. ”

"Ugh."

The kang is not big, and the three of them are indeed a little crowded.

Nier slept in the middle, her aunt slept in the easternmost part, and the mother and daughter slept sweetly.

Looking at such a harmonious and beautiful scene, Shen Junru was completely sleepless.

After a bowl of ginger tea, her hands and feet had already recovered their temperature, and she quietly covered Nielle with some more cotton clothes.

I thought about a lot of things in my head, and finally I didn't know how to fall asleep, and I had a very unstable and long dream.

In the dream, there were people chasing and killing, there was cold river water, and it seemed that there were all kinds of previous lives, and finally I was sweating all over, and I didn't even hear the rooster crow.

When he woke up suddenly, his forehead and body were wet with sweat.

She reached out and touched her forehead, but fortunately, it wasn't very hot.

It seems that exercising these days is always beneficial.

The curtain was opened, and Nier poked her head in and saw that Shen Junru was awake.

"Big sister woke up?"

With a smile, he rubbed it over, took out a warm and round thing from his pocket and stuffed it into Shen Junru's hand.

When I looked down, it was a round egg.

Yesterday's sweet potato and ginger tea, this morning's eggs, these are the best things in this family.

The stalk in his throat was tight, my egg, and after a while, Shen Junru said in a low voice, "Thank you." ”
