Chapter 695: I'm Hungry and Thin
Tonight, the wind and rain, the two of them hugged each other in bed, did nothing, kept talking, from acquaintance to the present, the people and things they met, unforgettable annoying and sad, happy and sad, Xiaoman felt that the two had never been so close as now.
The two chatted very happily, and the two were still talking intermittently when the child passed, Zhou Duchan told Xiaoman for the first time about his childhood experience, regretting his resentment towards his father, his mother's cowardly upset, and his sister's inaccessible accident, as well as his difficulty in supporting his mother and sister alone, all the grievances.
Xiao Man felt very distressed when she heard this, in her heart she always felt that Zhou Duchan was the kind of pride of the sky, and there was nothing in her heart that could help him, nothing could hurt him, but now she realized that she had forgotten, he was also flesh and blood, and the hardships of a teenage child's life alone with his mother and sister, thinking about those teenage children at the age of twenty-one, some of them still can't wash clothes and cook alone, and they still need family pick-up and drop-off from school, and even they can't take care of themselves, Xiaoman realized, What Zhou Duchan said was only a drop in the frustration of those dark days, and he endured a hardship that he couldn't imagine at all, after all, he was an out-and-out noble son before again.
In the second half of the night, the wind subsided, the rain stopped, and the two fell asleep until nearly five watches.
The morning after the rain was particularly fresh, and all the people spent the night in fear, for fear that the rain would not stop, they had already experienced the flood, and many people had not yet completely recovered from the terrible flood.
People went out early to check, but fortunately everything was fine.
Zhou Duchan was worried about going out to check the river embankment today, and woke up after not sleeping for long, Xiaoman was still snoring lightly when he left, Zhou Duchan looked down at his sweetheart with a doting smile, the pink and tender smiling face, as if transparent under the sun, the small earlobes looked extraordinarily cute, bent down and gently imprinted a kiss on Xiaoman's forehead, and left very reluctantly.
Xiao Si, Xiao Qi and Guangwei were already waiting for Zhou Duchan in the front hall.
Seeing Zhou Duchan striding over, Xiao Si breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, only he and Xiao Qi knew that Childe didn't spend the night in the room last night, as for where he went, the two of them knew very well in their hearts, and they were worried that Childe would get up very late today.
"Lord Zhou......."
Everyone saluted Zhou Duchan, Zhou Duchan nodded in response, and the group turned over on their horses and left.
Everyone tacitly knew that they had a tacit understanding for a long time, they all knew what Zhou Duchan was most concerned about, and last night's heavy rain, Guangwei had already thought that Zhou Duchan would definitely go to inspect this morning.
In the yamen, the people who were busy had already left, and the rest were women and children, such as Xiaoman, Mrs. Zhou, and Yulin.
Mrs. Zhou was tired and hadn't woken up in the morning, but Yulin was idle, drilling around in the huge yard, as if he had discovered a new continent, unlike in the capital and no one cared about him, so he simply let himself go, climbed the wall and trees, caught chickens and dogs, and was very lively in the morning.
Xiao Man was woken up by a chicken, and when Zhou Duchan left in the morning, he specially opened the window for Xiao Man to ventilate, but he didn't expect that the chicken had been chased by Yulin and had nowhere to hide, and flew directly into Xiao Man's room.
The chicken thought it was safe, but who knew that there was a demonic voice from Yulin outside, and he flew to Xiaoman's bed in fright, "Giggle...... ”
Xiaoman thought that he was hallucinating himself, how could he appear in bed all the time.
There was also the sound of shouting outside, and they drilled into their ears one by one, "Where did those chickens go, come out for Ben Gongzi, little beast, you come out ......." ”
Slowly sat up, Xiao Man watched the chicken walk back and forth on his quilt for a few steps, and even lowered his head to catch it, the purple flowers on the quilt, Xiao Man saw it clearly, this is not a dream, the chicken is really .......
"Ah......h
The reason why Xiao Man screamed was not because she was afraid of the chicken, but because she thought that the chicken was Zhou Duchan.
After all, it was Zhou Duchan who slept with him last night, but this early in the morning, Zhou Duchan was gone, and there was an extra chicken on his bed.
What surprised Xiaoman even more was that the chicken pouted his ass and pulled down a lump of green poop on the quilt.
Xiao Man had already reflexively kicked the chicken out of bed, with the quilt on his body.
Yulin heard Xiaoman's cry and broke in regardless of it, who knew that as soon as the door opened, the chicken screamed and flew out from the top of Yulin's head.
In this way, Yulin also ran out with the chicken, and Xiaoman was completely blinded.
Xiao Man, who came in with hot water on Friday and Saturday, was still looking at the quilt on the ground.
"Miss......."
On Friday and Saturday, I heard that there seemed to be some movement on Xiaoman's side, and the two were practicing martial arts, put down the sledgehammer and the two ran here, but they didn't see anything, and their young lady was also safe and sound, but there was an extra chicken in the young lady's room.
"Block Dot, hurry up and catch that chicken ...... on Friday."
Xiao Man was afraid that someone would kill the chicken and make it into a pot of broth, so that Zhou Duchan would become that pot of broth.
Friday dressed up and returned to the room, where Xiao Man was already dressed and was about to go out to find them.
"How are you back, the chicken?"
"I was captured by the young master Yulin."
"What are you going to do when you catch it? Fast...... Just go...... Stop him. ”
Yulin was carrying a fat rooster in one hand, and scolded the chicken loudly as he walked, "Run, why don't you run, hum finally fell into my hands, waiting for me to strip you of your hair one by one." ”
Just when the little demon king of the mixed world was about to make a move, Xiao Man came, not only snatching the big from him, but also scaring Yulin.
Yulin looked at Xiao Man's expression, and felt fear for the first time, "Woo......." The little devil almost cried with fright.
Xiao Man ignored Yulin, but was very nervous to hold the chicken in his arms, carefully checked, and kept comforting the chicken in his mouth, "It's okay...... It's okay...... Don't worry. ”
Friday and Saturday were shocked by Xiaoman's action, but then it was even more surprising, Xiaoman actually went to kiss the chicken, and left tears, both of them knew that Xiaoman rarely cried in front of people, and today I don't know how to get up from the beginning to be weird, and the behavior can be said to be very weird.
Several people looked at Xiao Man, not daring to take a step away, for fear that Xiao Man was doing something even stranger, and he kept muttering in his heart on Friday, Miss didn't run into evil last night.
Yulin didn't cry or make trouble, followed behind, and in the end he was still unwilling, and carefully ran to the front of Xiaoman to observe Xiaoman's expression, "Sister...... What's wrong with you? ”
Xiaoman didn't agree, and Yulin continued to ask: "Sister-in-law, did you raise this chicken?" If it was really raised by you, don't worry, I will never rob you. ”
"Sister-in-law...... Before my eldest brother went out this morning, he told me to take care of your ....... ”
Xiao Man stopped violently and looked at Yulin with wide eyes, "Why did you enter your brother this morning?" ”
"Yes, my eldest brother said he was going out on patrol today."
Xiao Man wiped his lips hatefully, looking at the chicken in his hand with a very interesting expression.
"I really didn't say it sooner...... Xiaoman threw away the chicken in his hand, then turned around and left.
The chicken fluttered on the ground and tried to escape, but unfortunately it forgot about Zhou Yulin, who had been trying to catch it.
"Finally let me get caught, I see where you go today, the name of my little demon king is not called in vain, I said that you will peck my ...... today, waiting for me to pluck your chicken feathers for you."
Xiao Man suddenly felt that he was really stunned, what did his brain think, how could he think that Zhou Duchan had also become a chicken, although he was an outlier, but this kind of anomaly was also extremely rare, Xiao Man thought that he would survive in this place with a new identity after his death, and Zhou Duchan woke up one night and became a chicken, so that Xiao Man did not have any doubts.
The more Xiao Man thought about it, the more he felt ridiculous, maybe this is what people often say about caring and messing up.
remembered that Zhou Duchan Xiaoman looked like Mrs. Zhou, "It's over, I haven't visited Mrs. Zhou until now, and I don't know if she is used to being here, by the way, there is also this meal, those cooks can cook what they eat, and for people like Mrs. Zhou, the meal must not be able to eat."
"On Friday, did Mrs. Zhou wake up?"
"I guess I haven't woken up yet, what's wrong, miss?"
"Let's go, let's go and cook something delicious for Mrs. Zhou."
As soon as I heard that Xiaoman was delicious, Saturday became very happy, laughing and dancing on the side, "Great, Miss, you are finally going to cook again, we have no appetite for dinner recently, you see that I am hungry and thin." ”
Friday couldn't help but roll his eyes on the side, "Are you hungry and thin?" I really haven't seen it yet, but I see that your waist is completely out of sight now. ”
Xiaoman is full of strength now, if nothing else, he just wants to please his future mother-in-law, to be honest, Xiaoman also feels that he is so useless, Xiaoman really hasn't deliberately pleased anyone in this world, but she thinks it's worth it, and it's worth it to do anything for her beloved.
Zhou Duchan and Guangwei they went all the way south, out of the village to the south of the town, muddy along the way, the speed of the horses slowed down a lot, and there were people in the middle of the horses who were deep in the mud and the horses couldn't pull out their legs, in short, the road was very embarrassing, and finally arrived at the embankment, fortunately, the embankment was repaired relatively strongly, and there was no breakdown, but Zhou Duchan They were really worried to death, and the heavy rain last night started without warning, so early in the morning everyone was worried about whether the embankment could withstand the invasion of the heavy rain.
When they arrived, there were also many people patrolling the embankment, and when they saw Lord Zhou coming, everyone gathered around.
