Chapter 80: Stay in the Village
Tang Xu and the others came to the old woman's house, and the things that had been turned over before had been cleaned up. A young girl in the family was anxiously waiting for the old woman's return at the door, and when she saw the old woman coming back, she immediately stepped forward, but when she saw Tang Xu and the others, a trace of shyness flashed in her eyes.
"Grandma, who are they?"
The little girl lowered her head, asked in a low voice, and peeked at Tang Xu and the others a few times.
"He is the one who drove those little hooligans away, that is, the benefactor who helped our family. ”
The old woman smiled kindly and touched her granddaughter's head.
"Young man, girl, don't care, this is my granddaughter, who has lived with me since she was a child, and has never seen any living person. Her father left early, and her mother remarried, leaving her alone at home, and I couldn't bear to raise her, so only the two of us depended on each other in this family. In today's situation, we can't do anything about it, thanks to you, young man. Moreover, my health is getting worse and worse, and the days in the future are getting more and more difficult, and I don't know how to live it. ”
The old woman told Tang Xu about her granddaughter's tragic life experience, and couldn't help wiping a handful of tears.
"Grandma, you can just call me Xiao Tang, I am also very sad about what happened to her, but you can live strong until now, I also admire you, but at the moment, I have no place to help. ”
Tang Xu sympathized with this family from the bottom of his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't help now, otherwise Tang Xu would definitely spare no effort to help them, maybe meeting each other was a kind of fate.
Lin Sixuan seemed to understand a little on the side, knowing that the old woman was by no means the kind of person who complained about her grievances and took the opportunity to ask for money. Seeing that the little girl was only fifteen or sixteen years old, it was the age of happiness and carefreeness, Lin Sixuan couldn't help but think of her own life experience, she had hardly seen her parents, and she didn't know what they were doing, whether they were dead or alive.
"Grandma, you take this money, go to see a doctor, buy some things, replenish your body, by the way, little girl, what's your name?"
Lin Sixuan handed over a sum of money to the old woman, and regardless of whether the old woman accepted it or not, she turned her head to the little girl and asked.
"My name is Yiyu. ”
The little girl replied in a small voice, but it was very nice and spiritual.
"Girl, I can't ask for this money, I don't want to ask you for money, you have already done us a great favor, how can I ask for your money again? This is not in line with the rules of our Miao people, and it will be punished. ”
The old woman was not a person who saw the money, so she immediately refused and stuffed the money back into Lin Sixuan's hands.
"Grandma, this money is just the cost of our accommodation and food for one night at your house, we are going to stay at your house for one night, you can take this money and buy some delicious food, grandma, it is not much anyway." ”
From her grandmother's words just now, Lin Sixuan also knew that they were Miao people, although she didn't know their rules, but Lin Sixuan still thought of a compromise method. Lin Sixuan didn't bring much money, only about 1,000 yuan, although it was really not much in her opinion, but it was enough for people here to live for a while.
And Lin Sixuan likes this small mountain village very much, she liked it from the first time she first came, and she really wanted to stay here for one night. And the most suitable place to live is the old lady's home, so that Lin Sixuan will give her money and live for one night, killing two birds with one stone. They don't say no, and they can find a good place to rest, but they are afraid of being deceived.
"Xiaoyu, you take the money to buy some delicious food, entertain your brothers and sisters, and I'll clean up the house for you. ”
The old woman handed over the money to the little Miao girl Yiyu, got up and walked towards the house.
Tang Xu wouldn't object, anyway, he didn't know when his father would come back, so it would be good to rest here for a night. Tang Xu just wanted to go and help clean up, but he was pulled by Lin Sixuan, stopped in place, and did not go.
The little girl ran to buy food, Lin Sixuan also walked in the village with Tang Xu, although there are no tall buildings and beautiful scenery, but every room in the village is full of simple and unpretentious characteristics of the countryside, which also makes Tang Xu and Tang Xu feel quiet for a while.
"Sixuan, why do you want to stay here for a night, and you won't let me help"
Tang Xu didn't understand Lin Sixuan's approach.
"Let me ask you, what do you think of the little girl's appearance?"
Lin Sixuan did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
"It's beautiful, there is a spirituality, with the style of the Miao people, like a piece of crystal without any magazines, if you are outside, there must be many people like it"
Tang Xu gave a high evaluation.
"Do you like that?"
Lin Sixuan took the opportunity to ask rhetorically.
"Sixuan, I haven't thought about this at all, your question is too sudden."
Tang Xu was very confused now, and he didn't know what the hell Si Xuan was doing.
"Hmph, the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless. ”
Lin Sixuan muttered in a low voice, not letting Tang Xu hear it. The two continued to stroll along the country road, which was very peaceful and beautiful.
It got dark quickly, Tang Xu was also a little hungry, and when he returned to the old woman's house, dinner had already been prepared, although it was not very rich, but it was very distinctive, full of Miao flavor.
As soon as Tang Xu and the others sat down, Yiyu brought two bowls of soup, but the two bowls were different, one was a little red and the other was a little green.
"This is a soup that we specially entertain our guests, red men and green women, each with different tastes. ”
The old woman seemed to see that Tang Xu was a little puzzled, and explained a little.
Tang Xu didn't doubt it, he wasn't afraid that the old woman would poison him, on the one hand, he had the emperor's bible to protect his body, and on the other hand, the old woman had no motive to harm him.
Tang Xu drank it in one gulp, the taste was a little light, but it was very delicious, which made Tang Xu have a great appetite.
Lin Sixuan drank the soup slowly, took a small sip, and judging from her expression, she was also very satisfied with the soup.
Tang Xu and the others ate quickly, and after a while, the plate had bottomed out, Tang Xu was also very full and satisfied, Tang Xu helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and went to rest with Lin Sixuan. The two walked for an afternoon, and they were a little tired, plus they hadn't slept well in the past few days, Lin Sixuan looked even more tired, lying on the bed, and after a while, Lin Sixuan felt that he was quite sleepy.
"Tang Xu, I wish you a pleasant night. ”
Lin Sixuan said something that Tang Xu didn't understand, then turned over and fell asleep, and after a while, he fell into a deep sleep. Tang Xu helped her cover the quilt and lay on the bed, but she didn't feel sleepy at all, so she simply started and prepared to practice for a while.
"Squeak"
A moment later, the door creaked open.
