Chapter 22: The Sheep Enters the Tiger's Mouth
Wu nodded and sat down next to him, "Next time, come back early, if you come back late, try to talk to me, I'm so hot." ”
Zhao Zhengyang responded lightly, without any expression.
The next morning, the place next to the Wu clan was empty again, and there was no warm breath at all.
In the past few days, the private school suddenly did not open classes, but Ye Jinyu didn't know anything, Ye Jinyan walked to Zhao Zhengyang's house worriedly, wanting to ask the specific reason.
She saw Wu drying the quilt in the yard, so she stood outside the fence and shouted to Wu: "Auntie! ”
To her surprise, Wu did not have the usual smile and greeting face, but his face sank suddenly, and then after a while, Wu grinned a smile that could be seen.
"Yan girl, why are you here? What about Xiao Yu'er? ”
Ye Jinyan was stunned and said with a smile: "He is reading at home now, I am here to find Uncle Lizheng now, is he at home?" ”
She looked over and saw that there was no one in the room, but it was a large house, possibly in another room.
"He's not at home now, you can come back to him when he's at home." Wu's face was so gloomy that he couldn't have been more gloomy, and he didn't even smile.
She turned around and just wanted to walk in, when she saw Zhao Long walking out of the house.
He held an egg in his hand and squeezed it very tightly.
Wu seemed to think of something, her brows suddenly relaxed, she turned her head, and waved at Ye Jinyan enthusiastically.
"Yan girl, Uncle Lizheng will be back soon, if you don't wait here, you can also play with Zhao Long."
Ye Jinyan was surprised by the change in her expression, but she still nodded, after all, Aunt Wu was very good to her before, maybe because she was in a bad mood, so she didn't care and went in.
When Zhao Long saw Ye Jinyan coming, he immediately hid his hand holding the egg behind him, walked to Ye Jinyan's side and said this carefully.
Wu took a handful of melon seeds and put them in their hands, and said, "You guys are delicious, I'll go find Uncle Lizheng now." ”
She walked out, but instead of looking for Zhao Zhengyang, she went to a medical center.
Although this village is small but full of organs, there are one or two doctors and a medical center, and people in the village usually come here for any major or minor illness, but she does not come here to treat diseases, but to get medicine.
The snow-white bearded old man sat in the rocking chair, closed his eyes in a daze, saw a figure walk in, slowly opened it, and asked, "Yo! Is there something wrong with you coming to my little place? It can't be that the virtuous Satoma in your family is sick, right? ”
He got up from the rocking chair slowly, because he usually read too many medical books, so he spoke with the air of a literati.
Wu glanced at him, waved his hand and said, "No, I'm here to get medicine today, didn't you tell me before that you bought some prescription medicines from the county seat before?" ”
She said as she looked at the bottles and jars in the medicine box.
The white-bearded old man walked up to her, squinted his eyes and looked her up and down, and said slowly: "That prescription medicine, each effect is different, it depends on what you want." ”
Wu blushed and whispered, "That's, that's it...... The kind that gets hot all over after eating. ”
The old man touched his beard, smiled and said, "I don't have a hot body, but I have a holy product to relieve the heat, do you want it?" ”
Wu knew that he had misunderstood, but it was not easy to say it, thinking that whether it was aphrodisiac, medicine or anesthetic, the effect was the same, so he waved his hand casually and said, "I want anesthetic, an anesthetic that can stun a cow." ”
The white-bearded old man casually put down the fan in his hand, turned around and said, "Okay." ”
He found a small porcelain bottle in the medicine box and put it in front of Wu, and advised: "As long as you eat this thing, a cow can't carry it, but you can't put too much, this medicine is extremely effective." ”
"What happens if, if you put too much?" Wu looked at the small porcelain vase in his hand, a little apprehensive.
The old man turned around and lay back in the rocking chair, basking in the sun, and said comfortably: "If you put too much, of course, you will directly poison the cow, after all, the effect of this thing is not simple." ”
This Wu Shi was so shocked that her head was full of sweat and her back was cold, she turned her head to look at the old man, and asked weakly, "Is there anything less intense than this?" ”
The old man rolled over, ignored her, and fell asleep
Wu had no choice but to squeeze the bottle in his hand and walk home.
Ye Jinyan and Zhao Long stared at each other for a while, because the two of them were not familiar with each other, so they didn't talk much, and it would still be a little embarrassing to sit with big eyes and small eyes.
Ye Jinyan coughed, began to look for a topic on his own, and asked him, "Can this egg hatch chicks?" ”
After she finished asking, she saw that Zhao Long kept staring at the egg in his hand and nodded, his eyes were very clear, like the clear sea water.
Few people have such clear eyes, but Ye Jinyan was stunned for a moment, and she praised: "Your eyes are very good-looking, don't pollute them in the future." ”
She knew that Zhao Long had some problems in his head, and of course she also knew that there was more or less discrimination in this area in the countryside.
Those who don't have good brains can sometimes be even kinder and simpler than people who have good brains, which may also be unfair to God.
For the first time, Zhao Long heard someone other than his mother praise him, he looked at Ye Jinyan in a daze, lowered his head, and said a little shyly: "You...... You're good-looking, too. ”
His voice was very small, so Ye Jinyan didn't hear it.
"Huh?"
Zhao Long blushed and shook his head, stammering, "No, it's nothing." ”
Ye Jinyan smiled and looked out the door.
At sunset, not only did Li Zheng not come back, but even Wu did not come back. Could it be something?
When the Wu family left before, she asked Ye Jinyan to play with Zhao Long, and she couldn't leave directly before the Wu family came back.
The cool wind was blowing, and the summer dusk was a little cold.
Ye Jinyan trembled, and when Zhao Long saw this, he immediately took off his coat and covered her.
Ye Jinyan looked at Zhao Long and said, "Thank you." ”
Zhao Long blushed and shook his head, at the end, he looked up at Ye Jinyan, plucked up his courage and said, "You are very beautiful." ”
It is a pleasure to be sincerely praised by a person with a pure heart, Ye Jinyan was about to say thank you, but suddenly heard footsteps outside.
She thought that Li Zheng was back, stood up, and turned her head to see Zhao Hu stretching out his hand to wipe his sweat, and shouted loudly into the house: "Mother, when will there be food?" ”
Ye Jinyan looked at Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu's eyes rolled, and he also saw Ye Jinyan. The two men who had just gone through a big battle today clearly showed no signs of reconciliation.
In terms of psychological age, Ye Jinyan is many years older than Zhao Hu, but she is also a half-old child now, and she is too lazy to tolerate another bad-tempered imp.
Zhao Hu frowned and asked in an unkind tone, "Why are you at my house?" ”
He was very angry, and when he thought of the humiliation this afternoon, he couldn't help but hate Ye Jinyan.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to find you, I'm here to find Uncle Lizheng." Ye Jinyan sat down again, and when she saw Zhao Hu slowly approaching her, she didn't raise her eyelids.
Zhao Long was sandwiched between the two of them, even if he was stupid, he felt the breath of *, he turned his head and wanted to talk to Zhao Hu, but he heard Zhao Hu call him first.
"Silly big guy!" Zhao Hu angrily asked, "Are you playing with her?" ”
