Text Chapter 9 Questions

The warm morning sunlight sneaked in through the cracks in the wooden pillars, shining on my uncovered arms, warm. Although it is a wooden bed, the cushion is not as soft as my father's house, and the quilt does not have bright colors and patterns. But none of that stopped me from getting a good night's sleep. From the time I set out to go to Huoyun Island until yesterday, I haven't had a good night's sleep, and this sleep has erased the tiredness I have accumulated over the past few days.

"You wait for me!Drink~drink......" A child's voice came into the house from a distance, and I was placed in a small cabin next to the council hall, and He Ku lived next door to me, which would be the home of the two of us from now on. Since the fourth Nanzi Yang was taken away by the wolves, his wife Dan Li and her son Nan Yongle have been living in a house under the rock wall at the head of the village. Although the house is simple, it also has a living room and a bedroom, and it is also a good choice for the theme to live in his house and take care of each other.

"Uncle Qiyuan ~ Uncle Qiyuan ......" Nan Yongle began to call me before he got to the door, I put on the white T-shirt before, there was a long cut on my chest, and there were blood stains in front of me, and there was nothing else to wear at this time.

"Lele, what's the matter?" I asked, opening the door.

Lele panted and said, "My mother asked me to ask the two of you to go to my house for dinner, and she and Sister Diana are ready to ......."

"Hmm...... Do I have to go?" I looked down at him with a smile.

"Gotta go! must go!" hey, hey, hey, hey......" The little monkey next to him danced and clapped his hands.

Lele pouted: "If you don't go, Mom and Sister Diana will be unhappy, and I'm not happy either!"

I smiled and said, "Okay! By the time I wash my face, I haven't washed my face in days." Lele ran into the house and said with a stupid smile: "You don't have anything but a bed at home, not even a bucket, what do you take to wash your face?"

"Alright!" I reluctantly lowered my hands. Lele ran to the next door and called He Ku, and walked towards the house by the rock wall together, along the way, the enthusiastic villagers and children greeted us, which reminded me of the days in Heras, and thought about the prosperous scene of Heras, which was simply one in the sky and one underground.

When I arrived at Lelejia, several small rooms surrounded a small courtyard. There is a large pottery water tank in the small courtyard, surrounded by several pots of flowers, some of which are budding and some of which have fallen off; in the middle of the courtyard is a large stone table, around which are neatly arranged with eight stone benches; in the corner of the house, an iron pot is steaming out, and the fragrance of meat permeates the whole courtyard. After saying hello to Lele's mother, I sat down at the stone table. She seems to have changed her person, wearing a ponytail, dressed like a village girl, and her simple makeup makes her look a bit like Lele's sister. She followed Lele's mother to go out and see that she had regarded this place as her home, completely forgetting that she was from the earth.

"There's water in the tank, there's already boiling hot water in the bathtub in the hut at the back, just add cold water to it, and go take a shower!" said Tina as she looked at me and pointed to the tank.

"Okay!" I smiled and stood up, Lele next to me was already running to the water tank with a wooden basin, and the little monkey followed with a water scoop. He Ku looked at me and said, "Young Master, you sit down first, and I'll fetch water for you!"

"No! I'll fight!" Lego said. There was a wooden board on the water tank that covered half of the mouth of the tank, and the little monkey was about to jump on the plank on the water tank.

"Little monkey, you are not allowed to go up!" said Tina pointed at the little monkey with her index finger not far away.

The little monkey's eyes widened in confusion and said, "Why?"

Title Na replied impatiently: "Naughty Grandpa, that's the water we drink, how can we use it if you jump up and drop all the monkey hair! This water has to be brought back from the opposite river bucket by bucket, you have to cherish the fruits of other people's labor!" Speaking of this, Title Na stared at the monkey with wide eyes: "If you are naughty and disobedient again, I will throw you away!"

The monkey handed the water scoop to Lele and said with a hippie smile: "I listen to me......!

He Ku took a towel and put it in the basin and said, "Young master, let's go, I'll rub your back!"

I looked at He Ku, thought for a while, and said to He Ku: "He Ku, in the future, you are not allowed to call me young master, call me by my name, there is no difference between respect and inferiority when we come to this place, don't always be young master and young master! Also, you don't need to serve me in the future, take care of yourself!"

"That's right!" Hearing our conversation, she walked to the table and raised her right hand, stretched out her index finger, and looked like a lecturer: "Everyone should be equal here, and besides, he doesn't look like a young master now!" Hahaha...... said and walked into a room with her head held high.

Title Na came out again, holding a few coarse cloth clothes in her hand, put them on the stone table and said, "This is the change of clothes prepared for you by Lele's mother, change it for a while, the clothes on your body stink!" said naughtily and blocked her nostrils with her index finger. Lele's mother was busy making food, she stirred the meat in the pot and interjected: "This is Lele's father's previous clothes, you can make do with them! I will take the changed clothes to the river for you to wash and mend them." ”

"Thank you, eldest sister!" I couldn't find a more appropriate title to call her, so I could only call her eldest sister.

Lele's mother smiled and said, "You're welcome, everyone who comes here regards this place as a big family!" She covered the wooden lid and continued: "The share of meat you get, Nanlan asked me to cook it and marinate it before giving it to you, otherwise it will stink in such a hot weather for a day." ”

"Thank you!" I politely thanked Lele's mother. Lele's mother left the stove and said: "But I can't eat for the two of you, there is nothing else in your room except the bed, this meat is ready or put it here, you will come here to eat together in the future, so it is more lively." ”

"This ...... I'm just afraid to disturb you. Seeing that I hesitated for a moment, Lele smiled and said: "Don't bother, our family used to be me and my mother, and my mother didn't talk much for a day, but since Sister Di Na came, my mother has been much happier." Hey hey ......"

The little monkey also danced on the stone table: "There are many people, there are many people, haha......"

Di Na glared at the monkey and slapped it on the table: "If you dare to jump on the table, the water tank, or any place to eat, I will throw you away!"

The monkey rolled off the table: "Don't dare!

Everyone was amused by the actions of the two of them, and Lele smiled: "Sister Tina, it sounds awkward to always call him a little monkey, we should give him a name." ”

She pouted and wandered around the table and said, "This guy is as naughty as my brother!" My brother always has a mushroom head, and he is the shortest in the class, and his classmates call him a million. I'll call you 10 million!"

"Then do I have the same surname?" the monkey looked at Tina suspiciously.

Titled Na looked at him and said, "Just ask!"

The monkey said happily: "Question million! Hahaha...... I've got a name!"

He Ku and I took a shower and changed our clothes, the plain fabric was covered with some simple dark patterns, the short-sleeved top had no collar and loose trousers, which was a bit like the outfit of the ethnic minorities on the planet Heras. Although the fabric is not as smooth as the previous wear, there is no smell of sweat, and there is a fragrance of herbs, which instantly feels refreshed. Smelling the clothes before, the sour smell came to his nose, and He Ku couldn't help but delete his nose with his hands. My hair is not as dirty as it used to be, and it looks black and shiny in the sun.

When I came to the courtyard, the dishes and chopsticks had been set, and they were all at the table, waiting for me and He Ku.

"Wow, how long has it been since you took a shower, this wash is completely human!" said Tina jokingly.

I smiled embarrassedly, spread my hands and said, "About more than 20 days~......"

"It's coming, it's coming. "Lele's mother served the stewed falcon tooth meat.

In addition to the question of the little monkey, a total of 6 people gathered around the stone table, eating meat and talking and laughing. The naughtiness of the question has sometimes become everyone's laughing stock.

"This meat is not salty enough!" said Q10,000 after eating a small piece of meat.

"You don't eat it!" "Don't you eat it!"

The question said aggrievedly: "Compared to the previous one, it was not salty, I used to only eat fruits and bananas, and there is no place in this place!"

Lele's mother lowered her head and said, "The salt is almost running out, and the salt in this place is harder to get than falcon tooth meat!"

He Ku asked, "How can I get salt?"

Le Le's mother said: "There are three ways: the first is to use slaves to exchange (Wuniu City), an adult man can exchange two bowls of salt, a woman or a little boy can exchange one bowl, and no one wants a little girl; the second is to rob, rob the salt dealers who transport salt halfway, but those people are all fanatics, the chance is slim, and it is inhumane; the third is to pick, there is a natural salt pit called (Yellow Mud Pit) 20 miles east of the hunt that day, there is an animal called (Qi Long), they drink seawater, hunt them can take a certain amount of salt from their bodies. But that is more dangerous, the dragon is still poisonous, and you can't break its sac when you take salt, and our village doesn't have so much manpower to do this. ”

"Mom, do we have to eat salt?" Lele looked at her mother curiously.

Di Na put down her chopsticks and said, "Yes, without salt, we don't have the strength to work, and we will have a lot of uncomfortable conditions!"

I was a dead man, but these people saved me and took me in. What can I do for them in this situation? What can I do for them......
