Fang Qiong and a few of them were in the yard, showing their heads in the kitchen from time to time, Xiao Man felt that the personalities of these big men were really cute, "You and Brother Fang have a good relationship from time to time?" ”

"We were closer than brothers, we were born and died together, and we saved each other's lives on the battlefield."

"I have heard people say that there is a kind of world that is more difficult to give up than family love, which is comradeship."

"Comrade-in-arms, this word sounds very fresh."

"Oh, this is my hometown, those who are in the barracks, the name of the comrades in the barracks, by the way, how is your uncle and his old man's health, are you okay?"

Qi Lin was stunned for a moment, his expression was sad, and after a while, he said softly: "My uncle has passed away. ”

The spatula in Xiaoman's hand stopped, "I'm sorry...... ”

"It's nothing, my uncle died when I was thirteen years old, and then my aunt sent me back to my father, but my uncle couldn't tolerate me at all, and it didn't take long to send me to the barracks.

Xiao Man originally thought that Xiao Huzi was taken away by his uncle, and their family conditions were good, he would definitely be well taken care of, but he didn't expect to go to the battlefield at such a young age, and he must have suffered a lot, "I knew that I really shouldn't let him go at the beginning, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, as the saying goes, one will eventually become ten thousand bones, Xiao Man even regretted saying that a man should join the army to defend the country."

"Little Huzi, are you married?"

Qi Lin shook his head, "No, who wants to marry me like me." ”

"What kind of person are you?"

"Every day I don't know if I can see the sun tomorrow, I run around all day and live without a fixed place, which girl is willing to marry me."

"Don't be so presumptuous, there are many good girls in the world, there is always one, you will always meet a girl who likes you and you like."

"Miss, let me ask you a question, don't laugh at me."

"Well, you can ask."

"What does it mean to like someone?"

"Like someone, you will miss her every day, cry for her and laugh for her, and hope her is happy,

Qi Lin looked at the warm fire at the bottom of the pot, and something broke out of the ground in his heart, it turned out that this was liking, he had already liked her since he was a child.

"Let's have a taste and see how."

Just this Xiaoman's hand Qi Lin took a bite of the cake, the green onion was fragrant, and there was a burnt fragrance, full of fragrance, "Well, it's so delicious, Sister Xiaoman, you don't know, since I separated from you, I haven't eaten anything better than you." ”

Xiao Man put the whole cake in his hand on the plate, and originally planned to let Qi Lin take it out to Fang Qiong and them, but looking at Qi Lin's sparkling eyes, his heart softened, and he picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Qi Lin, "Let's give you something to eat first." ”

Looking at Qi Lin's gobbling up, he was a little distressed, the motherless child is really pitiful, no one cares about it and no one asks, he knows it.

"You eat slowly, be careful, oops...... You see how ...... you eat. ”

Outside, Fang Qiong and a few of them were already impatient, and before the cake was baked, the fragrance had already wafted out, and the smell made people drool.

Xiao Man felt a little guilty, bowed his head and didn't dare to look at the few people outside, and burned one in the back to give them one, and finally the cake was baked, and there was no one left to eat, this speed really forced Xiao Man not to dare to delay a little time, who knew that there was still not enough food in the middle, and even in the end, he found that Xiao Man didn't taste a mouthful, Qi Lin stomped his feet angrily, "You guys also give me Sister Xiaoman a mouthful left, she has been busy for half a day, and she hasn't eaten a bite." ”

Fang Qiong looked at the empty plate in her hand, and when she saw that the desk was also empty, and the pot was also empty, she felt that she and her brother were really a little too much, "Miss Xiaoman, I'm really sorry, the cakes you made are so delicious, a few of us opened their bellies, patronized and ate by ourselves, and didn't leave a ...... for the girl." ”

Xiao Man rubbed the dry flour on his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, Brother Fang doesn't have to feel embarrassed, I'm not hungry and I've already eaten just now, if you like to eat it, I will teach Qi Lin how to make this cake, and I won't let Qi Lin make it for everyone to eat in the future." ”

"This relationship is so good, the girl is really a good person, if anyone can marry a girl in the future, it will be a blessing for eight lifetimes."

When Fang Qiong said this, he deliberately glanced at Qi Lin.

Originally, Fang Qiong meant to remind Qi Lin to cherish the opportunity in front of him, but alas, Qi Lin didn't understand the meaning of his words at all, and said proudly on the side: "Of course, I don't think there are few men in this world who can be worthy of my sister Xiaoman, my sister has good looks, good personality, and delicious cooking, anyway, it seems that she knows everything and ......."

Xiao Man stretched out his hand and poked Qi Lin, "Your sycophants are a little too much, how can I be as good as you say." ”

Qi Lin covered his head and smirked.

Fang Qiong looked at Qi Lin and snickered in her heart, she had always heard people say that women would become fools in front of the people they liked, but they didn't expect that this man would also be like a fool in front of the people she liked.

Xiao Man lowered his head and looked at his hands, his heart was very sour, she had never been so unconfident, unprecedented frustration, since falling in love with Zhou Duchan, she seemed to have changed a person, and she did not have the confidence and freedom before before, once Xiao Man really felt that in front of these ancients, he was a person who had experienced modern higher education, with all kinds of comprehensive knowledge and high IQ people, and would be strong and independent women in the new society, and he could deal with all the troubles and solve all the troubles, and he could live a good life, But now my life is a mess, my mother is still in Pingjiang Town alone, I don't know what is going on now, is my mother angry with herself, my brother left a letter and ran away, and my mother was already very sad when I didn't hear from my brother when I left, and now it's me again, hey...... Every time I want my mother to live a good life and enjoy her old age, but every time I make my mother angry and worried, it is always myself who makes my mother angry.

Seeing that Xiao Man didn't speak, and they didn't think about it before they joked, Xiao Man turned around and cleaned up the kitchen, Fang Qiong and a few of them pulled Qi Lin out, and walked to the corner, one of them was the most careful person called Qiu Chi, "Big brother, Qi Lin, I've been thinking about this, is there anything bothering Miss Xiaoman." ”

Fang Qiong touched her beard with a serious expression, "Well, I also think that this little girl has something on her mind...... ”

Qi Lin clasped his hands in front of his chest, "When you say this, I also think that Sister Xiaoman is in some trouble, she is a girl wearing men's clothes, alone, and when she met us, she was still in such a wasteland, and she was also held hostage by a group of thieves...... No, I'm going to ask Sister Xiaoman to see if someone is bullying him, if someone really bullies my Sister Xiaoman, see if I don't beat him, he is looking for teeth all over the ground. ”

Looking at Qi Lin's gritted teeth, Fang Qiong and the others quipped: "Qi Lin, looking at your anxious appearance, don't you have a crush on other girls."

"What's the matter, I've liked my Sister Xiaoman since I was a child, Sister Xiaoman I told you has a life-saving grace for me, if it weren't for Sister Xiaoman, I would have died when I was seven years old."

"If you like it, then marry back."

Qi Lin put down his fist and looked depressed, "I can't ask for it, but I think that I am marrying Sister Xiaoman like this, I want her to live a good life and no longer have to work all day long." ”

"Then work hard and strive to get ahead as soon as possible, and when the time comes, the wind and wind will marry other girls."

"But I don't know if Sister Xiaoman is willing to marry me......

"When did you become so twisted, if you like people, be bold and tell other girls, don't fall in love with others when you little sister Man."

Xiao Man stood at the door of the kitchen, heard what a few of them said outside, slowly retracted his steps, and gently retreated, leaning against the wooden door of the kitchen, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a few of them outside were silent, Xiao Man pretended that nothing had happened, and walked out of the kitchen with his usual smile, "Brother Fang, what did you say just now?" ”

Qi Lin stopped Fang Qiong and said first: "I didn't say anything, it was all ...... what we did in the barracks before." ”

"Oh, no wonder you're so happy, by the way, can you take me to see those captives? I'd like to see if I can ask something. ”

Fang Qiong's identity was surprised, "What girl wants to meet those thieves?" ”

"What's wrong with Brother Fang, isn't it inconvenient?"

"This is not ......." Fang Qiong smiled awkwardly, "Little Man girl, don't mind, I just didn't expect that a weak girl like you wouldn't be afraid of those thieves." ”

Xiao Man smiled: "Brother Fang, people can't be good-looking, I am not a weak girl." ”

After speaking, his figure quickly approached Qi Lin, and before everyone could see what was going on, Qi Lin had already fallen to the ground, and he was still very embarrassed.

Xiao Man originally planned to fall Fang Qiong, but thinking about it, if Fang Qiong was really treated in front of himself as so many people, it seemed too embarrassing to be thrown to the ground by himself, and besides, if people were really angry, wouldn't he have offended others, and what if these people would settle the accounts on Qi Lin's head in the future, the most important thing was that he was not sure that he could fall Fang Qiong, after all, his height and weight were not much worse than him.
