Text Chapter 13 Peach, Three Apricots, Four Pears Five Years

There was a musty smell in the house, the light was dim, and it was vaguely visible that there were two beds on the floor, and the room was already cramped, but now it was even more crowded when the two beds were put down, and the air was very humid, and if you lived there you would definitely get rheumatism.

Song Yu looked around in disbelief and said in surprise: "I live here?"

Someone took Song Yu's luggage and put it on an empty bed, and said as a matter of course: "This is the boss's explanation, I have lived there for more than ten years, and the boss's family also lives next door, and it is very cool in summer here." ”

This person was the one who almost splashed the dirty water on Song Yu, Song Yu took the luggage to the food processing workshop, and Wang Papi arranged for Song Yu to live with this person, and the place where they lived was opposite the food processing workshop.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Papi's family also lives opposite the food processing workshop, which is incredible, and it stands to reason that Wang Papi has made a lot of money by opening a food processing workshop, and there is no reason to live in such a bad place.

Song Yu can't figure out the reason, maybe Wang Papi is stingy with others, and he is also stingy with himself!

Interestingly, the other workers did not want to live in such a place, they all lived in other places, and they did not want to enjoy the food and accommodation of Wang Papi.

Song Yu shuddered, nodded and said, "I feel it, it's really cool, by the way, we're all roommates, I don't know your name yet, what's your name?"

The man lowered his back a little, as if hanging a weighing stone, pointed to his hunchback, and said, "They all call me hunchback, because I am hunchback, and you can call me hunchback." ”

Song Yu heard the helplessness in this person's tone, and there was a trace of unwillingness, Song Yu looked at this person's eyes, and said solemnly: "I asked for a name, not a nickname." ”

The man thought about it carefully, sweat overflowed his forehead, and no one had asked his name for a long time, what was his name......? Zhou Changdao, no, I ...... It doesn't seem right to call Zhou Fugui, but it's just one of the two, which one is it?"

Song Yu saw that this person's head was about to get bigger, so he also thought about it at the moment, and suggested: "I think it should be Zhou Fugui, this name is real, Zhou Changdao is too strange, your parents should not give you this name." ”

This person was reminded by Song Yu and shouted: "That's right, my name is Zhou Fugui, and my mother said that she doesn't want me to be prosperous and rich in my life, but only wants me to be blessed and rich." ”

Song Yu saw Zhou Fugui's back stiffened a little, and said with a smile: "Since I know your name, I will also introduce myself, my name is Song Yu, Zhong Lingyu's beautiful Yu." ”

At this time, there was a broken gong outside the door, like the terrible cry of a rooster when it was castrated, which was really creepy.

"Hunchback, I asked you to take Song Yu to the residence, did you crawl there?

"Coming, coming, coming......"

Zhou Fugui ran out like a lost dog, Song Yu shook his head, didn't say much, smelled the musty smell and dampness in the room, and sighed in his heart Zhou Fugui's today may be my tomorrow, but I want to firmly believe that I won't stay here for long, I can't give up my goal, otherwise what's the difference between me and salted fish?

On this day, Song Yu was not in a hurry to go to work, and Wang Papi did not say anything.

Then Song Yu came to the outside of the Li Mansion, there is a big apricot tree in the distance outside the Li Mansion, the branches are luxuriant, the apricot tree bears fruits, some fruits are spherical shaped, some are ovate, but the fruits are not ripe yet, when ripe, they are shallow or yellow-red, slightly hairy.

Song Yu remembered a proverb, the proverb cloud: "Five years for three peaches and four pears, the jujube tree was sold for money that year."

This proverb means that the apricot tree will blossom and bear fruit in four years, and the benefits will be early, and it will enter the full fruiting period in five years, and its general lifespan is 40 to 100 years, and it is known as the "longevity tree".

Song Yu thought to himself, where will I be in the next season?

"What a big apricot tree!"

Song Yu climbed the apricot tree, picked an apricot fruit, did not eat it, but put it in his hand to play, remember that in the "Strange Records" it was recorded that a Taoist priest had killed a big snake with the apricot tree as a array.

At that time, Song Yu studied its operation process, and was finally discovered by Song Qingshan and ignored it, Song Yu's final conclusion was that it was impossible, it was all said to be played in the book, how could there be a big snake in the world?

In the distance, there are often people in the Li Mansion who go in, come with gifts in both hands, and go empty-handed, the meaning of which is self-evident.

Song Yu waited until it was dark, and finally saw Li Shu's carriage parked in front of Li's mansion, and Li Shushu walked out of the carriage with a spring on his face.

Song Yu's target is Li Shu, since Uncle Wuniu looks like Li Shu, then Li Shushu must know something, but Song Yu did not act, because there are hundreds of officers and soldiers around Li Shu, Song Yu does not want to get close to Li Shu, even if he observes Li Shuhe a little closer, he will be interrogated.

In fact, there is another way to know the cause of Uncle Wuniu's death, that is, to ask Uncle Wang directly, but Song Yu didn't go, the reason is not profound, maybe it's the scholar's anger, right? !

After Li Shushu was escorted into the Li Mansion by officers and soldiers, and after the carriage left, Song Yu slowly climbed down from the apricot tree and walked towards Wang Papi's food processing workshop, the moonlight stretched his figure, and the shadows of the surrounding scenery accompanied him.

Song Yu kept telling himself that there would be a way, that there would be a way......

When I returned to the food processing workshop, the door was closed, and the second room opposite the food processing workshop came from the quarrel between Wang Papi and a woman, the sound was very loud, but the words had not yet touched the parents and ancestors, and the woman was Zhou Papi's wife.

Song Yu saw a little girl standing at the door shivering, half-squatting on the ground, burying her head in her knees, as if crying, Song Yu guessed that the little girl was Zhou Papi's daughter.

Song Yu walked over and said softly, "Have you eaten?"

When the little girl heard someone talking, she first felt scared, and looked up at Song Yu, the little girl felt that Song Yu's eyes were very beautiful, just like the stars in the sky exuding bright starlight, even the dark alleys in the depths would be illuminated by the starlight, the little girl didn't feel scared, she shook her head timidly, her movements were very light, she was afraid of scaring away the starlight in front of her.

The little girl was cute, with big watery eyes, bangs hanging down in front of her eyebrows, wearing a purple shirt, and the expression on her face was pitiful, like a little angel who had fallen into the mortal world.

Song Yu stretched out his hand to the little girl, "I didn't eat either, let's go eat." ”

Song Yu said very sure, just like the little girl will definitely go with her, in fact, the little girl did the same, she stretched out her hand to hold Song Yu's hand, Song Yu's hand was very warm, which made her very infatuated.

A teenager, a little girl, step by step out of the alley.

The alley is located in Xiangnan Street, facing the street is the snack street, Song Yu saw it when he came back, Song Yu took the little girl to the snack street, the street is full of people, the food is everything, and it is full of dazzling.

Song Yu has always been not particular about eating, and what does it mean that he doesn't care, if Song Yu alone will take the method of ordering troops and generals to solve the problem, now that there are two people, then he has to consider the taste of the other person.

Song Yu squatted down and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

The little girl didn't think much of it, "I want to eat noodles." When the little girl spoke, she showed two small tiger teeth, and passers-by thought the little girl was too cute.

Song Yu said: "Although eating noodles saves money and time, you don't have to save money for me, and I have a lot of time." ”

The little girl said: "We can only eat noodles, there are many vendors here who are looking for my father to buy, do you dare to eat it?"

Song Yu said: "That...... I really don't dare to eat it, let's eat noodles!"

The little girl took Song Yu to a noodle stall, and there were few customers at the noodle stall.

The owner of the noodle stall was an old man wearing a patch, Song Yu found that the old man's legs were still a little lame, and the old man's face was full of age spots, which looked a little scary.

The little girl was not afraid of the old man's appearance, ran to the old man, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I brought my brother to eat noodles, we want two portions of two taels of noodles, remember to add a few more eggs, Xiaoru likes to eat eggs the most." ”

The old man also smiled when he saw the little girl's smile, his eyes were full of love, "Okay, you go and accompany your brother, and I will give you the following immediately." ”

The little girl smiled and shook her head, "I'm going to help grandpa." ”

The little girl didn't wait for the old man to speak, but got busy with herself, lit the fire, washed the vegetables, cut the vegetables, and ...... below It was very skillful, and the little girl told jokes to tease the old man, and the old man's smile never faded.

Song Yu looked at the scene in front of him and laughed unconsciously.

The noodles were quickly cooked, and the old man came over with two bowls of noodles, each bowl covered with five fried eggs, and the little girl followed, the little girl handed Song Yu a pair of chopsticks, and then sat down opposite Song Yu.

The little girl smelled the fragrance in the bowl, and grinned two tiger teeth with her small mouth, "It's so fragrant, it must taste good." ”

The old man laughed and looked at Song Yu, "Xiaoru is very well-behaved and often comes to help me, are you really her brother?"

Song Yu shook his head and said, "I also want to have a lovely sister, I just came to work under her father, you don't have to worry." ”

The old man looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else." ”

Song Yu shook his head and said, "I know, you don't have to explain." ”

The old man said a few more words to Song Yu, and when he saw that a customer was coming, the old man went to entertain the customer.

Song Yu was about to eat noodles, only to see the omelets running into his bowl one by one, Song Yu looked up and saw that it was a little girl, and the little girl smiled at Song Yu.

"Brother, grandpa is very pitiful, grandma died early, grandpa is old, his son kicked him out of the house, his feet are lame, grandpa is unwilling to accept the help of others, I often come to eat noodles will add a few more eggs, so that I can give more money, now I eat fried eggs and have to vomit, can you help me eat?"

The little girl had a pleading look on her face, and her eyes were shining with tears, as if Song Yu was crying if she didn't agree.

Song Yu smiled dumbly, and solved the omelette in the bowl with three strokes and five divided by two, and the little girl laughed proudly when she saw that the old man did not notice her small movements.

After Song Yu finished eating the noodles, he burped, Song Yu's meal was always small, and he smiled bitterly at the moment: "I was almost killed by an omelette." ”

The little girl smiled and said, "Brother is the best, by the way, brother, how do I make noodles?"

Song Yu said seriously: "The noodles you make are a little better than mine." ”

The little girl's eyes lit up with curiosity, "How is the noodles made by my brother?"

Song Yu remembered that after Huzi had eaten the noodles he made, he pulled his stomach for three days, and the whole person seemed to be terminally ill, and Huzi never dared to eat anything he made again.

So, Song Yu said with great certainty: "Theoretically, you can't eat the dead." ”

The little girl let out an "ah", "Brother's cooking skills...... That's amazing!"

Song Yu was amused by the little girl's appearance, stood up and paid the bill, not giving more, not giving less.

After paying the bill, it was too late, Song Yu was about to take the little girl back, and the little girl said to the old man, "Grandpa, goodbye." ”

The little girl took Song Yu's hand and walked out of the snack street step by step, the old man looked at Song Yu and the little girl, and saw them disappear from sight.

The two walked to Xiangnan Street, walked into the alley, and returned to the food processing workshop, where Wang Papi was still arguing with his wife.

The little girl looked at Song Yu and said, "Brother, Daddy and Mother will soon finish arguing, you go to sleep first!"

Song Yu squatted for a day, tired, and nodded, "Then I'll sleep, see you tomorrow, Xiaoru." ”

Song Yu pushed the door of the first room, the door opened, Zhou Fugui was already asleep, Song Yu covered the door, climbed into the bed in the dark, and fell asleep.

When the little girl saw that Song Yu really went to sleep, she sighed: "Brother, I just said it casually, why don't you understand?"

The little girl touched the remaining temperature of her palm and laughed, I really hope that my father and mother will stop quarreling, and they can hold me like my brother.
