Chapter 52: Inquiring
Hearing this, Hachi was silent.
Why does it look like a funeral?
After a while, Xiaoba asked, "What about Gongzi Hong?" ”
"Gongzi Hong followed a Lang Zhong a few days before the princess came, so there was no him among the people who saw him off at that time."
"So the two of them haven't seen each other yet?"
"Not really! How can you say that it is such a coincidence, as soon as Hong Gongzi left on the front foot, the princess arrived on the back foot. ”
The thin old man pulled the other two people, one to sit on the big stone under the locust tree, and then patted the stone next to him, motioning for Hachi to sit over.
Hachi is as good as a stream.
"It's strange to say, no one in the village saw it when Hong Gongzi left, and he left in the middle of the night." The thin old man opened the conversation and pulled Xiaoba to chatter.
"Why is that?" Hachi asked.
"Hong Yuanwai said that it was because that Lang Zhong was in a hurry, and there were still patients waiting for him in the next county!"
"The healer is benevolent!" Xiaoba sighed, "I think this Langzhong must have excellent medical skills!" ”
"I don't know about this, and I haven't seen that Lang Zhong either." The thin old man shook his head, "Without a year and a half, Hong Gongzi will not come back." Otherwise, it is okay for you to meet him. I still saw Hong Gongzi, he was handsome when he was a child, like a female doll. ”
"Oh?" Xiaoba became interested and asked, "What does Gongzi Hong look like?" ”
"This ......"
The thin old man searched his stomach and thought about adjectives, and the old man with a cigarette pouch next to him said: "He is very white, delicate, with thin eyebrows and big eyes, a bit like a big girl." ”
"It's just that the body doesn't look sturdy and feminine like the young man who often works as a farmer in the village." Finally, the gray-haired one corrected.
"Hahahaha," Hachi said with a hearty smile, "Many sons and brothers have this look, and I've seen a lot of this kind of person." ”
"Oops, it's different." The thin old man saw Xiaoba smiling and said anxiously, "How can a boy from a peasant family not go to the field, their family was poor like that before, and I have never seen his son bask in the sun in the field." ”
"Old man, it's normal for people to have some babies, and besides, the child is only 17 years old, and he can't do too much work." The old man retorted, took a puff of his cigarette, and continued, "Besides, the boy is so good-looking, if I don't want him to go farming." Unlike us rough people, that kid looks rich and noble. ”
"Hearing the three of them say this, I really want to meet this Hong Gongzi." Hachi sighed with emotion, showing a look of regret.
At this time, a woman passed by, and the old man with a cigarette pouch beckoned: "Daughter-in-law, these two guests want to go to Hong Yuanwai's house to have a look, you can take them with you!" ”
The woman, who was only about 40, heard the old man's words and responded well.
"This is my daughter-in-law, Kim."
The two met, and Hachi said to Chihiro, who was playing with a group of children, "Sister, let's go." ”
At this moment, Chihiro has mingled with the children, and she is mixed in the children's pile, protecting the row of chicks behind her with her arms open like a mother chicken, preventing the agile eagle in front of her from being caught.
This group of children looks small, but they are very naughty, Chihiro doesn't get any benefit in their hands, and they don't talk about putting all the sugar into it, but they have to play with them.
Hearing Xiao Hachi's greeting, she stopped, took out a cotton handkerchief to wipe the sweat beads on her forehead, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, turned around, and looked at Xiao Hachi with a smile.
Her clothes were about to be torn, but fortunately, Hachi stopped in time.
Chihiro's face was red, her body was steaming with the heat of life, Xiao Hachi was silent, and her eyes behind the lenses were like lake water on a moonlit night, pouring a pool of sparkling silver light.
He was envious, envious of the vitality in Chihiro's body, and he was covetous, greedy for the temperature on her.
Xiaoba is envious, envious that she is a person.
Seeing that Chihiro was leaving, the children who ate the candy were reluctant and stepped forward to pull Chihiro's skirt and sleeves and refused to let them go.
She has become the king of children, and she is really surprised that she is so popular with children.
Child? She remembered that she had a child before her amnesia, how was she now?
Chihiro felt bitter in her heart, she didn't remember the baby's name, she only knew that it was a girl.
How old is she? How are you doing?
The smile on the corner of her mouth froze slightly, and in an instant, her smile became brighter.
Thinking so much about what to do, can she go back?
Chihiro hopes that she can go back, but she feels that she should not have a chance with the baby in this life.
In the end, it was Xiaoba who came over to relieve the siege.
The driver drove outside the car according to Kim's command, and Hachi listened to Kim's words, thought about it, and said, "Living so far away, it's not easy to make an appointment with a few friends!" ”
It is mountainous, and there are a few families living in the center of the village, but there is really only one family like Hong Liangcai who lives in the middle of the mountain.
"Not really! However, there are really few friends outside Hong Yuan, and there are only a few who usually move around. Hong Yuanwai doesn't like to communicate with people very much, especially his son, who rarely even goes out of the door. ”
"It's better to talk less, be cautious, and don't get into trouble." Hachi said smoothly.
"That's right. Although their family is stuffy, they are very honest and everyone gets along well. ”
"Doesn't Princess Mingyue often go down the mountain?"
Kim shook his head and replied, "No." ”
"Have you seen the princess?"
Kim shook his head again, saying he hadn't seen it.
"It's a shame." Xiaoba sighed, "I want to meet my friends outside of Hong Yuan, I don't know if I can recommend them?" ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The woman didn't think much of it, but smiled and agreed.
The three of them got out of the car at the foot of the mountain and climbed a rocky path.
Kim is at the front, Chihiro is at the back, and Hachi looks back from time to time to pull her.
Chihiro still remembers that when the two first met, she couldn't touch him once, and now Hachi will take the initiative to take her hand.
However, she did not reach it, the mountain road was not difficult to walk, but her pampered body was a little unable to keep up with the working woman and the nimble robot.
She's not that delicate!
Hachi's eyes were heavy, the bottom of his eyes was dark, and he withdrew his hand and no longer insisted.
About the time of a pillar of incense, they came to Hong Liangcai's former residence.
The one-man high courtyard wall enclosed the two thatched huts inside, and the things in the courtyard were placed in an orderly manner, and Kim opened the door, and the two followed.
These thatched houses are made of yellow mud and roofed with thatch, and the stone steps in front of the door are wet and the morning dew is still hanging.
The three of them stepped on the dead leaves that had been blown into the yard by the wind, making a clattering sound.
They did seem poor, poorer than the family they had stayed with on their first night in this world. Chihiro muttered in her heart.
Kim opened the door and was the first to enter the room.
Hachi and Chihiro stood still in the courtyard, trying to see if there were any clues.
Suddenly, the Kim family in the room let out a terrible shout, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Chihiro and Hachi were surprised and looked at each other, they didn't know what was going on inside.
