Tao Sixi followed behind, guessing Ma's intentions, and his lips couldn't help but raise slightly.

The old lady is going to give a gift to Li Zheng, so that Li Zheng can mobilize the people in the village to help find the piglets?

Ten eggs, I don't know if Li Zheng can see it......

However, since Ma asked her to go with her, then go, crooked in bed every day, go out for a few steps, and breathe fresh air.

The two grandmothers and grandsons walked out of the courtyard gate of Lao Tao's house and walked to the west end of the village where Lizheng's house was located.

The houses you see on the road are all made of adobe bricks, with thatched roofs, and those in slightly better conditions will paste a layer of yellow mud on the outside of the adobe bricks to prevent the rain from scraping.

Thinking that the walls of the old Tao family's house were smeared with yellow mud, it seems that the old Tao family is still a family with a little preference in this village.

Tao Sixi was a little distracted, and he was thrown away by the Tan family for a short time.

Don't look at Ma's little feet wrapped in his little feet, and he still has eggs in the crook of his arm, but he is not ambiguous at all when he walks.

Tao Sixi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, followed behind, a little out of breath.

At this time, it is in the cold of spring, and the sun is slightly warmer during the day, and it is still a little chilly in the morning and evening.

Especially when the wind blows in the evening, there are almost no people outside, and the doors and windows of every house are closed.

Tao Sixi followed Ma to the edge of the crescent pond in the middle of the village, and a figure came over.

Seeing the oncoming Ma Shi and Tao Sixi who was not far behind Ma Shi, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately let go to the side of the road.

Ma Shi pretended to have something in his heart, so he didn't pay attention to the existence of the other party at all, and walked straight over.

When Tao Sixi passed by, he shouted to her: "Sister Sixi, it's getting dark, where are you and your grandmother going to go in such a hurry?" ”

Tao Sixi stopped, and was stunned when he saw this person who took the initiative to greet him.

The man in front of him was about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall, with broad shoulders and a bucket on his shoulder.

He was wearing a set of short clothes that were easy to work on, with several patches on his elbows and shoulders.

But his facial features are upright, his thick eyebrows and big eyes are full of heroism.

"Brother Gu, my grandmother asked me to accompany her to Uncle Lizheng's house in the west of the village!" Tao Sixi smiled slightly, and said in a calm tone.

In my heart, there was a ripple.

The person in front of him is called Gu Nanxing, the grandson of the third room of the old Zhao family in Xitang Village, west of the Crescent Pond, who is four or five years older than her.

There is a widowed mother in the family and a disabled younger brother, because Zhao Laosan joined the Gu family back then, so the two sons followed their motherhood.

The reason why Tao Sixi's heart fluctuated a little when she saw Gu Nanxing was not because of Gu Nanxing's poor family situation and sympathy, nor because Gu Nanxing was tall and strong, and sunny and handsome, but because of a joke between her and Gu Nanxing in her previous life, because of a joke between the elders, she almost ordered a baby kiss.

Later, she climbed to the prince of Anle Hou and made a concubine for others, and the marriage between her and Gu Nanxing naturally ended.

But I heard that this incident more or less constituted a certain blow to Gu Nanxing, so that he dragged on until he was twenty-seven or eighteen years old and did not get married, and finally left his hometown with his widowed mother and disabled younger brother to go to a foreign country to earn a living, and he was never heard from again......

Reliving a lifetime, Tao Sixi looked at the simple big brother-looking person in front of him, and a trace of imperceptible shame flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Gu, are you going to fetch water?" She asked calmly again.

Gu Nanxing nodded, "It's almost time to cook dinner, but the water tank has bottomed out, and my mother sent me to carry the water back." ”

Tao Sixi said: "Well, then you hurry up and carry water, don't let the eldest lady wait for a long time." ”
