Yan, who came to his senses, shook his head and said, "This young man is somewhat similar to the son of an old man of mine, and my mother just recalls the past. But the old man is thousands of miles away from here, and it is impossible for his children to come here, so the mother may have recognized the wrong person. ”

"Oh, then let's go cook, Yan'er is hungry, he hasn't woken up yet, I'll come to see him later."

The salted radish porridge made by Xia Yan for dinner, although there is only a little rice, it also has a unique taste against the backdrop of radish. The mother and son, who had a great appetite, drank several bowls and praised Xia Yan's cooking skills

Yan asked curiously, "Yan'er, have you really dreamed of immortals?" You didn't know how to cook before. ”

Xia Yan immediately replied with a sincere expression: "Really, when did I lie to you, there are really immortals who teach me all kinds of knowledge in my dreams." The gods said that it was their negligence that made me lose my memory, so they taught me a lot of things to compensate me. ”

Thinking of Xia Yan's loss of memory, Yan's original joy was so low that her mood fell again, and she said with tears in her eyes: "As long as my mother's Yan Erjian is healthy, I will believe whatever you say." ”

Xia Yan hurriedly persuaded: "Mother, why are you crying again, aren't I fine." I went to see if the boy in the house was awake and brought him some food, he didn't know how many days he had been hungry. ”

Xia Yan entered the house with a bowl and found that the young man's eyes had been opened, staring at the ceiling in a daze. What kind of eyes are they, like a sky full of stars, and like a thousand kinds of glass light constantly flickering, making people unconsciously immersed in it.

She relieved herself, took a deep breath, and said to the boy in a concerned tone, "Are you awake?" Are you hungry or not, do you want to eat some vegetable porridge here? ”

The young man turned his head to look at Xia Yan and then turned back, Xia Yan waited for a long time and didn't hear his response. She was a little angry and said, "Hey, are you deaf?" I'm talking to you, I saved you anyway, why are you so rude. ”

Hearing Xia Yan say this, the silent young man finally opened his mouth and said one word: "Reward." ”

"What are you, who are you, and what do you have to offer me? Hasn't anyone taught you to say thank you when you're helped? ”

Hearing this, a trace of imperceptible sadness flashed in the young man's eyes, and he said softly, "No." ”

"Nothing? Heck, can you please say a few more words, talking to you is going to kill people. ”

"Hmm."

Xia Yan felt that she was playing the piano to the cow and was about to collapse, she put the bowl in front of the young man, and said weakly: "I don't need you to thank you, you hurry up and eat something to recover your strength and then go home." You were in a coma when I met you, and I don't know how long you've been out, and your family will definitely be worried. ”

The boy looked at the food in the bowl and immediately turned his head away from the bowl.

"Why don't you eat it?"

"Ugly."

This word stung Xia Yan's heart, she was a little aggrieved, but she still held back the tears she wanted to shed, and said to the young man: I know that I am ugly, and it will affect your appetite. I'll put the bowl out here, you can eat it yourself, and I'll put the bowl away later." ”

She placed the bowl next to the boy and turned to walk out, only to find a hand tugging at her sleeve.

"It's not you, it's porridge."

Xia Yan realized that the young man was ugly in the bowl, she turned around and smiled, dug a spoonful and handed it to his mouth and said, "Ugly is ugly, but it tastes very good, you will feel very comfortable and warm after eating, you can try it." ”

The boy sniffed at the spoon, and a sweet smell wafted over, and he immediately felt his appetite be boosted, so he opened his mouth and took a bite. The porridge was salty and appetizing, and the boy felt as if a warm current had entered his body, as if he was in his mother's warm embrace, comfortable and comfortable, and his remaining physical strength was also restored.

He took the bowl and ate it in a big gulp, and the wonderful feeling made him feel comfortable, and he felt that all the delicacies of the mountains and seas he had eaten before were not as good as the taste of this bowl of porridge.

After eating this bowl of porridge, the young man breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded at Xia Yan with satisfaction, and said, "Reward again." ”

Xia Yan looked at the young man embarrassedly, thinking, this is not a fool. So she pretended to cooperate and replied: "Thank you, Young Master." ”

"Well, stand down."

Xia Yan said angrily: "Are you really a fool? Do you want someone to cooperate with you to play this game of young master and maid? ”

The young man was also a little angry, his expression was slightly angry, he looked at Xia Yan and said, "Bold! ”

"I'm quite bold." Xia Yan smiled, "Which fool are you from, tell you where your home is, I'll notify someone to pick you up." ”

"I don't know."

"Are you so stupid that you don't even know where your home is? It's really serious, you won't have amnesia too, will you? ”

"Nope."

"Is there no amnesia, or no home?"

The young man lowered his head, pursed his lips, and said, "Nothing." ”

Xia Yan looked at the young man's somewhat lonely expression, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and a sour feeling was born from his heart, it turned out that he was an orphan like himself, no wonder he was so indifferent to people.

"Then you can stay at my house first." Xia Yan touched the young man's head and said, "It's not scary to be alone, what is scary is that you feel that if you lose them, you will lose your light." You know, all the people who accompany you will leave one day. All you have to do is keep your most important people in mind and live your life to the fullest. No matter where your loved ones are, they'll feel relieved to know you're doing well and don't need them to worry, won't they? ”

Xia Yan's words touched the softest part of the young man's heart. After the death of his mother, he completely closed his heart and lived every day as if he were wrapped in a hard shell. Today, this hard shell seems to have been cracked open by something.

The young man was silent again, and Xia Yan said to him a little at a loss: "Oh, I said so much, did you hear it or not?" Forget it, don't talk about it, I always feel like I'm playing the piano to the cow. Anyway, you can stay at my house. You sleep a little longer, and I'll take the bowl out. ”

At this time, the young man stretched out his hand again and pulled Xia Yan's sleeve, and Xia Yan asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Hungry, pass on the meal."

Xia Yan felt that his head was full of black lines, and he really wanted to scold him, but looking at the young man's eyes full of expectation, he swallowed back the words that had just come to his mouth, and changed his words: "Okay, wait." ”

Bowl after bowl, the boy ate three bowls in a row before he put down the bowl satisfied. He looked at his dirty clothes, looked at Xia Yan and said, "Change clothes." ”

The young man completely annoyed Xia Yan, she pointed at the young man and shouted: "Enough, you are not finished, how long will this young master's game be played?" If you want to live in my house, let's make three chapters: first, you can't speak to me in a commanding tone, I am not your subordinate; Second, you can't stretch out your mouth for food; Third, you have to help us work, our family does not support idlers, and we can't afford to support them. Agreed? If you don't agree, get out of my house immediately. ”

"Good"

"Good what? Will you agree to my request or agree to get out? One more thing, you have to be clear when you speak, otherwise who knows what you want to do. ”

"I'm going to live here, get me clean clothes."

Xia Yan was stunned, and couldn't believe it was the first time he heard the young man say so many words. "I'm deaf and have auditory hallucinations?"

"Nope."

After losing his temper, Xia Yan, who had no choice but to go to Xia Huai's cabinet and get a set of new-looking clothes for the boy, handed them to the boy and said, "This is my brother's best clothes, he is usually reluctant to wear them, you have to cherish them." ”

The young man shook his head in disgust: "Broken." ”

Suddenly, they only heard a "knock" at the door of the room, and the two turned their heads to look, and it turned out to be Xia Huai. He slammed his hand against the door and said to the young man, "Your clothes are not torn, so don't wear mine, wear your own." He turned his face sideways and frowned and asked Xia Yan, "Yan'er, why did you give him my clothes to wear?" Think our family is poor and still eat four bowls of rice? What are you doing with him when everyone is awake, wasting food at our house? ”

"Brother, don't say that, he is an orphan and has no home. I have already told him that he will live in our house and help us work, and he will not be allowed to eat for nothing. ”

"Orphans?" Xia Huai looked at the young man and said suspiciously, "What about the deceitful ghost?" Look at his clothes, this material, this workmanship, can orphans afford to wear them? Yan'er, don't be deceived by him, he must have other plans to stay in our house. ”
