Chapter 63: A Guest Has Arrived
It was still the end of summer when the Black Dragon Village was destroyed, and now there are snowflakes floating outside the window, and this winter seems to have come earlier than in previous years, and it is colder!
Gu Ying stood by the window and looked at the snowflakes outside, medicine was boiling on the stove in the house, the door was knocked a few times, and before she could reply, it was pushed open.
"Miss, how can you not eat well all day long, where can this body stand it!" Coming in was a woman in her fifties, she was Ma Tuo's mother, surnamed Liu, the big guys called her Aunt Liu, there was a famine in her hometown that year, and everyone in the family was starved to death, she fled all the way to this side with her young son, and was later taken in by Qi Zhishan, and since then she has settled in Luoyang Village, Qi Zhishan, she is grateful from the bottom of her heart, Gu Ying grew up in Luoyang Village, Aunt Liu took care of her life, and got along for many years, Aunt Liu really felt sorry for her, although she knew that their identities were different, But she treats her as her own daughter in her heart.
Although after Aunt Liu came in, she quickly closed the door, but the cold air still came in, Gu Ying coughed lightly, after returning from the Black Dragon Village, Gu Ying's health was not very good, coughing all day long, they boiled medicine for her according to the prescription prescribed by the Taoist before, but it was always not good. Originally, Gu Qiming and Qi Meilan were reluctant to let Gu Ying leave, but Gu Ying insisted that she adapt to the living environment of Luoyang Village, and Gu Qiming and his wife couldn't resist her, so they had to let her go back to Luoyang Village.
"Aunt Liu, I'm not hungry!" Gu Ying looked at the food that Aunt Liu brought in for the third time, and said helplessly, she really couldn't eat it.
"You have to eat even if you're not hungry!" Aunt Liu put the food on the table, this is the third time she has cooked a meal and brought it in today, the first two times Gu Ying didn't eat a bite, this time she had to force her to eat a little bit of anything: "Ma Tuo and Lei Ming brought a lot of sheep back, they are slaughtering sheep in the back, saying that they want to make up for the big guy today, and when the time comes, you can also drink some soup to make up for your body, you are too weak!" ”
Gu Ying walked to the table and sat down, with a helpless expression: "Aunt Liu, I'm really not hungry, I can't eat, when I want to eat, can you make it for me?" In front of Aunt Liu, who has taken care of her since she was a child, she even feels more comfortable than in front of her mother, and she can't say some words in front of her mother.
Aunt Liu looked at the medicine and said, "That's what you said yesterday, but you haven't eaten a bite until now, eldest lady, people are iron, rice is steel, don't eat a meal and get hungry, this old saying is not unreasonable, where does the strength come from if you don't eat?" ”
After looking at the medicine, Aunt Liu came over and sat down opposite Gu Ying, and pushed the food to her: "I don't care, you eat a little bit today after all, otherwise I won't leave!" ”
"Aunt Liu!" Gu Ying looked at her sadly.
"It's useless to be coquettish!" Aunt Liu was unmoved, and handed her the chopsticks: "Eat!" ”
Gu Ying reluctantly took the chopsticks, thought for a while, and asked, "There is no news from Xiaoyun yet?" ”
Aunt Liu shook her head: "No, I also understand Xiaoyun's temper, she just can't think about it for a while, and she will naturally come back after a while, she won't really be angry with you!" After a pause, Aunt Liu asked cautiously: "But Miss, I don't know if I should ask if there is a sentence." ”
Gu Ying looked at her: "You want to ask me, why was it slow at that time?" ”
Aunt Liu nodded: "We all know your skills, if you want, you can kill the one-eyed dragon before he shoots at that time." It's not just that Mu Yun can't figure this out, in fact, they also feel a little strange, after speaking, she added: "Of course, I completely believe in you, you must have your reasons." ”
Gu Ying was silent for a moment and said, "I didn't know Hua Peony before, but I just knew the secret he had been keeping deep in his heart, do you know this feeling?" You are not familiar with a person, but you know him very well, and I understand him very well, I can feel the pain in his heart, he is really living too hard, too painful, and wants to be free! ”
Aunt Liu didn't speak, in the past few years, when he had nothing to do, he also followed Wen Xiucai with the big guy to recognize a lot of words, and also listened to him talk about many things, compared to the average woman who doesn't know a few big characters, she has more knowledge, and she can understand a little bit about what Gu Ying said.
Gu Ying continued: "That day, before the one-eyed dragon fired, he said a word to me, and that was the sentence that made the knife that I originally wanted to fly out of be put away. ”
"What did he say?" Aunt Liu asked.
"Fulfill me!" Gu Ying replied: "He said to fulfill me!" I know, he really doesn't want to live, maybe he had the idea of living for Xiaoyun before, but the destruction of Black Dragon Village hit him too hard, originally he wanted to save them so that they could live a stable life, but he didn't expect that in the end, he killed them, and he had no desire to live, so when I heard his words, I hesitated! ”
No one spoke for a long time, and I don't know how long it took, Gu Ying spoke again, she said, "Aunt Liu, do you think I really did something wrong?" ”
Aunt Liu patted her hand: "No, you did the right thing, maybe for him, the current result is what he wants, as for Xiaoyun, she will figure it out." ”
Gu Ying shook his head: "I've been thinking these days, if I hadn't hesitated and shot before the one-eyed dragon shot, would Xiaoyun have gone to a place with him where no one knew them and lived happily together?" Xiaoyun will not be lost until now. ”
"It's not your fault!" Aunt Liu comforted her: "You have done a good job!" She knows too well about the child she brought up since she was a child, she is weak on the surface, but she is actually strong on the inside, but she is very soft on the partial, she always thinks too much about others, thinks too much, and carries everything on herself, and she is just a girl in her early twenties.
Gu Ying smiled bitterly: "Sometimes I even wonder if the original choice was right, was it that I shouldn't have followed my grandfather to practice martial arts from the beginning, if I didn't have this martial arts, would I be able to live a easier life?" ”
"What nonsense!" Aunt Liu said angrily: "Do you know how much those aunts and girls in our village envy you, including me, who are envious of your ability to death, but unfortunately we don't have your talent, the Taoist chief said that you are a rare martial arts wizard for many years, if you don't practice martial arts, wouldn't it be a waste?" Don't say this kind of stupid thing, you know? ”
Gu Ying suddenly smiled: "Aunt Liu, it seems that Xiucai taught you well, and now you are talking one by one." ”
"Go!" Aunt Liu scolded with a smile: "You still made fun of me!" ”
The atmosphere was much better, and the two stopped mentioning the incident and talked about family life.
Someone knocked on the door again, but the person didn't come in, but said at the door: "Miss, there are guests in the village, and Master Qi will let you go." It was Mato's voice.
"Who is so important, the eldest lady is still sick, what should she do in the past?" Aunt Liu was obviously dissatisfied.
"Mother!" Ma Tuo said helplessly: "It's Tang Sanshao who came, saying that he was going to take the eldest lady to Shanghai to see a doctor!" ”
Gu Ying was stunned, Tang Yifeng?!
