I don't know if this land temple is the old house from decades ago, the walls have collapsed, there are no monks in the temple, and half of the clay sculpture of the mountain god is gone.

It would be an exaggeration to say that it can shelter from the wind and rain.

Staying here is better than staying in the open air at best.

After Beimang was busy, he lit several fires in the temple, and the three of them sat on the hay surrounded by fires, which was not particularly sad.

Beimang also brought some dry food and took it out and ate it among the three of them.

Because there was a Beimang, Yuan Ning and Su Heting had a lot less words, and after a few casual conversations, they had to rest.

I didn't sleep well last night, and after another day of tossing during the day, Yuan Ning was really tired.

At this time, I realized that my gender was a burden, and I saw Su Heting and Beimang sitting back to back, and they had already closed their eyes, as if they were sleeping soundly......

She herself could only stay away from them and clutch her knees......

Time passed quickly, and in the middle of the night, Su Heting opened his eyes, added firewood to the fire, and saw Yuan Ning holding his knees, his body crooked and squinting to see that he was about to fall to the ground, and he couldn't help but feel great pity.

Walk over gently and slowly help her to fall. The ground was covered with thick withered grass, and it was not cold.

For he moved very slowly, very slowly, and his eyes were so asleep that he did not notice it at all, and lay down on the hay little by little.

Su Heting took off her coat again and covered her body, and added a few thicker sticks of firewood to the fire on her side.

Beimang looked at it coldly, did not say a word, and when Su Heting came back after doing all this, he slowly closed his eyes again.

There was a fire baking, and Yuan Ning slept very well this night, and when he woke up at dawn, he saw the clothes covered on his body, and his heart was also warm.

The fire had not been extinguished, but Su Heting and Beimang had disappeared, she got up and folded Su Heting's clothes, put the haystacks on the ground in order, and tidied up her hair and clothes.

Su Heting and Beimang walked in one after another, and when they saw her getting up, they asked, "Are you hungry?" ”

Yuan Ning touched his stomach, during the growth period, he was indeed hungry fast.

Su Heting spread out his hands, "Beimang and I went out and took out a few bird eggs and came back." ”

Yuan Ning looked at it, and there were about seven or eight of them, the size of a pigeon's egg.

Beimang, who was behind him, was holding a broken iron pot with a missing mouth in his hand, which had been scrubbed and cleaned, and there was still water in it.

Su Heting stuffed the bird's eggs to Yuan Ning, went to move a few broken bricks by himself, built a simple stove, Beimang put the pot on it, took a few burning dry firewood, and began to boil water.

Su Heting took the bird's egg from Yuan Ning's hand again and put it in the water.

Yuan Ning was very curious, "Where did you find the pot here?" ”

"It's not easy, but there's still something to do," Su Heting didn't elaborate, "Let's get some food and we'll go back." ”

They also had the dry food that Beimang brought yesterday, roasted it on the fire, and when the eggs were cooked, they ate them with the eggs, drank hot water, cleaned up the temple, and the fire was extinguished, and there was no spark left, and then they set out on the way home again.

Nothing happened the rest of the way.

Back in the county seat, Su Heting and Beimang sent Yuanning home first, but they didn't go in, so they said goodbye and went back.

When Aunt Zhang saw Yuan Ning coming back, she let go of the heart that had been hanging, and rushed over to ask, "Big girl, why have you been here for so many days?" ”

"Something stumbled," Yuan Ning smiled faintly, "Don't worry, this is definitely not the only time, and you may not be able to come back for a few days after going far away." But rest assured, I'm not a person who doesn't have a sense of proportion, and I won't go to unsafe places. ”

Aunt Zhang didn't say anything anymore, after all, to put it bluntly, she was just a helper and was not qualified to take care of the affairs of the master's family.

But Yuan Ning was also very tired in the past three days, Aunt Zhang prepared hot water for her, and cooked chicken noodle soup while she was bathing and changing.

Yuan Ning ate two bowls of noodles hotly, and went back to his room to sleep after a short rest.

Although it is not bad to sleep in the ruined temple, it can't compare with at home after all!

After sleeping for about an hour, she got up, and looking at the hour, her younger siblings should not have come back so early. I'm ready to go to the studio.

It happened that Sister-in-law Liu came back from grocery shopping, and when she saw that Sister-in-law Liu was not having Ji Xiu by her side, she frowned and asked, "Where is my little sister?" ”

Aunt Zhang hurriedly said: "Ji Xiu has gone to the front, follow Mr. Xiao Xue." She went to play every day these days. ”

Xue Jingzhai is not very old after all, Ji Xiu is very likable, and the two get along very happily.

Yuan Ning thought that Xue Jingzhai himself also had his own affairs, so he went to the front to pick up Ji Xiu.

With permission, when he entered Xue Jingzhai's house, he saw Xue Jingzhai holding Ji Xiu in one hand and reading a book in the other.

Ji Xiu had already fallen asleep.

She was quite embarrassed, so she hurriedly picked up Ji Xiu and thanked her in a low voice.

Xue Jingzhai moved a chair for her, "It's cold outside, going out like this, children are prone to cold, it's better to wait for her to wake up and leave, she also slept for a while." ”

Originally, Ji Xiu had the habit of taking a nap, and he should wake up at this time, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fall asleep during nap time.

Therefore, Yuan Ning couldn't lower his voice, and he chatted with Xue Jingzhai without a match.

Xue Jingzhai said: "I heard that you have been in the countryside for the past few days? It's inconvenient for you to go out as a girl, if you go again next time, you can tell me, although I'm not strong, at least I can be brave. ”

Yuan Ning chuckled, "It's okay, it's all a familiar road, not to mention that I didn't go alone." , I go outside and dress up as a kid, and no one pays much attention. ”

Xue Jingzhai was stunned, and none of the guys in the shop were missing, "You said someone was going with you?" He cautiously probed, "Who is it?" Can it be trusted? ”

"Of course," the corners of Yuan Ning's lips unconsciously curled slightly, "Speaking of which, you also know this person, it is Su County Ling." ”

"Huh?" Xue Jingzhai's brows furrowed, "Shouldn't he be very busy now?" "Why, for the sake of girls, even official duties have been abandoned?

Yuan Ning said with a smile: "He is a measured person, and he knows what to do and what not to do." ”

Xue Jingzhai couldn't even hold back a polite smile on her face, why, now she thinks so much about him?

Bowing his head slightly, Xue Jingzhai's heart turned upside down.

In fact, he is also very conflicted about Su Heting's feelings, he admires Su Heting's erudition and youth, but on the other hand, he looks down on Su Heting a little vaguely, after all, he is an outsider.

Sometimes he can't help but think that Su Heting is famous in the capital, and he is a second-class legend who shocked the government and the opposition - it is said that Su Heting's achievements back then were not exaggerated, but now I see that those people are all middle-aged people who have studied hard for more than ten years or even decades......

I felt that this young man could be pressed, lest the young man gain his ambition and lose his true nature. But you can't do too much, after all, this person's real talent and learning are in front of him.
