Chapter 188: Where Have People Gone?
Yuan Dalang took off the jacket on his body, carefully laid it on the ground, gently put Yuan Siniang on it, and said softly: "Siniang, you take a breath outside first, and if someone comes to search for you, they will have to put you under the cauldron." ”
Siniang held her legs with both hands, like a kitten, and stared at Yuan Dalang with affection, until Yuan Dalang's face turned crimson, stirring his fingers and not daring to look at her, and asked, "Sister, is my brother's face sticky to the bottom of the pot?" ”
Siniang sighed helplessly, and said with great resentment: "Brother, you call me sister again, or call Siniang more pleasant." ”
Da Lang suddenly drooped his shoulders, opened his mouth to say something, but he wanted to say something and stopped, looked at Siniang Lahuang's face, felt extremely sorry, turned around and walked out of the firewood room, and walked towards the room on the side.
There was still half of the dried steamed buns left in the room, Da Lang pinched a little dry and hard, couldn't help frowning, put down the steamed buns, took out an empty bowl from the bowl shelf, took out a small spoonful of milky white meat oil base with oil instigation from the meat oil jar, cut the finely chopped green onions, added a small pinch of salt noodles, poured boiling water, and the oily floated up from the bottom of the bowl, with a strong meat oil fragrance.
Da Lang brought it to Siniang at this time, and said with annoyance: "Sister, now I can only settle it, and there is nothing ready to eat." ”
Siniang smiled gently, stretched out her hand to take the coarse porcelain bowl, but Yuan Dalang took it back, and said angrily: "Just like when I was a child, I was stunned, not afraid of burning my hands?" I'll come, and you can drink it from the edge of the bowl. ”
Siniang nodded obediently, and sure enough, as Da Lang said, it was held by Yuan Dalang, Si Niang's mouth was on the edge of the bowl, sipping half-warm meat oil soup, and drinking it in her mouth, but it was fragrant in her heart, tears gushed out, and fell into the oil bowl, like spring rain hitting the water surface, fine and silent.
Yuan Dalang hurriedly withdrew the bowl and said in a panic: "Sister, what's wrong?" Hot? I've been half-blown and cool. The stout man opened his mouth in a panic to drink the soup, but it was neither hot nor cold.
Siniang didn't cry but laughed, rolled her eyes at the reckless man, and scolded: "You melon seeds!" Where did I say it was hot, I just remembered that when I was a child, I was sick, and I was making a fuss about eating delicious food, and my father didn't give it, so you got up in the middle of the night, and secretly pulled meat oil from the oil jar to make soup for me to drink, afraid that my father would beat you, and you deliberately made a dead mouse and put it on the edge of the oil jar, and when my father found out, you were more angry than him, and the mountains were full of catching mice. As a result, my father thought that the meat oil was poisonous and poured it all out. At that time, I also swore that when I had the money, I would ask my eldest brother to eat oil all day long. ”
Yuan Dalang scratched his scalp embarrassedly, he was very honest when he was young, and he deceived everyone at that time.
Siniang picked up a piece of oil instigator floating on the soup noodles with her fingers, which was only half the size of a fingernail, and handed it to Yuan Dalang's mouth mischievously and said, "Brother, I have fulfilled my promise, please eat oil instigators." ”
Yuan Dalang opened his mouth obediently, although the oil instigator was small, it seemed to be unable to plug between his teeth, but it seemed to be full of fragrance, and no words were enough to describe it.
Yuan Dalang gently stroked Yuan Siniang's long hair, and said with infinite pity: "Sister, although you don't have to worry about eating or drinking with the yak cow, but after all, what you do is a matter of damaging yin virtue and breaking yang longevity, if you can get through today's hurdle safely, you should go home with your brother and live a good life." ”
Yuan Siniang's eyes showed sadness, and she buried her head deeply, deeply in the crook of her arm, feeling helpless, and her voice was as low as a mosquito: "I don't want to see Liu Lian'er and Yong'er." ”
Yuan Dalang was silent suddenly, in order to pass on the ancestry, he became a relative to a little widow in a neighboring village three years ago, the little widow has a good personality, and her stomach is also angry, and she gave birth to a big white fat boy in the second year of marriage, named Yong'er, that is, since then, Yuan Siniang has hardly gone home, messing with the yak cow, and occasionally going home, and she also picks her nose and eyes at Liu Lian'er's sister-in-law, and she also ignores Yong'er.
Yuan Dalang thought for a while and persuaded: "Sister, although your sister-in-law doesn't like to squeak, but she is very good, besides, with her brother here, she still dares to give you melons to eat?" If she dares to let you suffer from Qu'er, I will be the first to spare her. ”
"Will you divorce her?" Yuan Siniang looked at Yuan Dalang with hope, and saw that Yuan Dalang's face was stunned, just staring at Yuan Siniang's coquettish but extremely persistent eyes.
Yuan Siniang grabbed Yuan Dalang's hand and forced out the tears that she wanted to shed, like clouds and mist, half like hazy, just forcing Yuan Dalang to look.
Yuan Dalang hurriedly dodged his eyes, shook his head and said, "Sister, don't be like this, Yong'er can't live without a mother." ”
Yuan Siniang's tears poured out again, and she smiled and said, "I know, in this life, you are my brother." ”
Yuan Siniang silently drank the bowl of meat oil soup, there was not a drop left, and at the end she licked the corners of her lips, and said: "Brother, this is the best soup I have ever drunk in my life." ”
Yuan Dalang said with a smile: "Silly girl, clean nonsense, before entering the prison, the yak cow, the big fish and the big meat are adjusted for you to make, and from time to time I go to the restaurant to have a meal, which one is not better than this meat oil soup?" This is something that the poor eat only to satisfy their gluttony, and the rich and noble will not eat it. ”
Yuan Dalang looked at the sky outside, the sky had begun to gradually turn white, looked at the direction of the chaimen worriedly, and hesitated: "Sister, you better hide under the stove first." ”
Yuan Siniang followed the direction that Yuan Dalang was looking at, and couldn't help asking, "Brother, will the yak cow meet here?" ”
Yuan Dalang nodded and said: "This is the safest place in the city, this time it took a lot of effort to rescue you from the cow, although my brother doesn't look down on his character, but as long as you like it, my brother will be happy." ”
Yuan Siniang looked at Yuan Dalang in a daze, her heart seemed to be stirred up with a trace of waves, with layers of ripples, as long as you like it, I will be happy. The corners of the woman's mouth were slightly curved, with a hint of relief and comfort.
After a while, Yak Niuzi and the two brothers rushed back, Yak Niuzi took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, opened it, it was a roast chicken, tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Yuan Siniang and said: "This is brought by the hand when I was circling in the alley, you eat some top." ”
Yuan Siniang shook her head and said, "I don't want to eat chicken legs." ”
Yak Niuzi smiled: "What do you want to eat, I'll buy it for you, but don't go too far, my honor, I can't show up in the sky." ”
Yuan Siniang still shook her head and said, "Now that the sky is slowly getting brighter, you can't go out, let the eldest brother go." ”
Yuan Siniang looked at Yuan Dalang eagerly, and said softly: "Big brother, you go to the easternmost city to buy me a few pieces of osmanthus cake, I suddenly remembered the hundred-year-old osmanthus at the entrance of our village when I was a child, but unfortunately, the tree is dead, and I can no longer smell the fragrance of osmanthus flowers." ”
Yuan Dalang hurriedly stood up and scolded: "Look at you, just twenty-two years old, you look like you are seventy or eighty, you always think of things when you were a child, you always grew up next to the osmanthus tree when you were a child, eating osmanthus and wearing osmanthus flowers, and I also teased you that it was a flower fairy who went down to earth!! It's a pity, the osmanthus died suddenly, and you cried for three days and three nights, saying that you didn't have time to make osmanthus wine, and took it to marry with you! ”
Yuan Dalang muttered, his body had honestly walked out, and he was about to step out of the threshold, when Yuan Siniang suddenly called softly: "Brother! ”
"Huh?" Yuan Dalang turned his head and replied, looking at Yuan Siniang's eyes, waiting for Yuan Siniang to say the following.
Yuan Siniang smiled, waved her hand and said, "Brother, it's okay, one day I will invite you to drink osmanthus wine!" ”
Yuan Dalang laughed, and sighed in his heart, silly Nizi, the osmanthus tree is dead, where do you have the opportunity to pick osmanthus and make osmanthus wine? Without this wine, could it be that he would not be able to get married?
Seeing Yuan Dalang's figure gradually drifting away, Yuan Siniang's face sank, and she looked at Yuan Sanlang and Yuan Wulang and said: "Third brother, fifth brother, second brother must have taken the silver and ran to Yixiang Courtyard to find which little fox spirit, at this time of emergency, you go and find them back immediately." ”
The two of them were facing Yuan Erlang's stomach with resentment, and they didn't want to move, Yuan Siniang's face became even more gloomy, and her voice raised and shouted: "How do you say that you are also brothers, how to do something ruthless and unjust, go and find it back!! ”
The two were taken aback by Yuan Siniang's sudden anger, looked at each other, and had to go out to find someone again.
Yak Niuzi looked at the always gentle and friendly Yuan Siniang suddenly had a strong side, and said a little uncomfortable: "What's wrong?" Bullied in prison? ”
Yuan Siniang shook her head, just looking at the sky outside in a daze.
Yakniuzi obviously noticed this, stretched out his hand and hugged Yuan Siniang, walked to the cauldron stove, and said as he walked: "It's almost dawn, you and I can't show up, it turns out that I and that kid are not lenient when they are crowded together, and now we have to settle for it." ”
Yuan Siniang's eyes glanced at the ground, and suddenly grabbed Yak Nianzi, pointed to the only small section of fire left on the ground, and said, "Yakniuzi, look, what is this?" Yuan Siniang originally pointed indiscriminately to divide the god of the cow, and when the cow turned his head, he threw an ebony hairpin on his head on the ground.
The yak looked down to pay attention to these, and saw that there was only a small piece of fire broken on the ground, and his head suddenly exploded, and his eyes suddenly showed a look of panic.
When he just returned to the inn, he only thought about whether Siniang was hungry or not, and forgot what he had done before. Now after being reminded by Yuan Siniang, I suddenly remembered that when he left, he threw the fire, in other words, if no one put out the fire, the current firewood house, and even the entire inn, should be reduced to ashes.
Now the fact is that not only is the firewood house safe and sound, but even the fire has not burned out, but the little son of the county master has disappeared!! Looking at the integrity of this firewood house, it should be that he walked on his front foot, and the man came in on his back foot, extinguished the fire, and saved the baby!
This thing is too strange and incredible, who is that person? If you catch it quickly, it is impossible for you to run to the county government to rob Yuan Siniang!
Yak Niuzi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but glance at the various rooms in the inn, in the light and shadow, there were more than 20 rooms of the three levels of A, B and C that were unusually quiet, as if with the power of devouring people, let Yak Niuzi go to explore one by one.
