The bull's-eyed baby finally ate the meat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wu Xi walked over and untied the rope so lightly, and put the bowl full of meat in his hand.
Although the bull's eye baby still hates him so much, it doesn't affect his appetite for meat at all, Wu Xi hasn't walked a few steps, and an old bowl of red meat has a big eye baby's belly.
was so shocked that Wu Xi almost dropped his jaw, but the meat had just been scooped up from the hot pot.
The bull's eye baby took the initiative to fill a bowl of meat for himself in the pot, and ate it very reasonably, during which the two dogs gave him many looks, but he turned a blind eye.
"It stands to reason that I should have sent you to the Yamen, but if I punched you and didn't lose anything, it should be regarded as my reparation, and after this meal is over, I want to leave and leave for you to decide.
I've always been a very fair person, you respect me, I pay you back, this hellish society is enough to fuck up, and now you half-grown children are still out to make trouble, it's really not worrying at all.
Our family is very equal, there is no superiority and inferiority, don't call me young master anymore, just call me brother, and look kind.
If you want to leave, I still know some people in Siwu City, and it's no problem to introduce you to work, and if you want to stay, you can also see, the family is now surrounded by walls, and there are all kinds of waste waiting to be rebuilt, and it must be very laborious to reintegrate, and it will be very bitter to follow me.
In addition, there is another secret that I haven't told you, that is, both of us are the fate of the Nine Palaces, and they will be contagious, but I don't know if it will be transmitted to you. ”
The two of them stopped talking, and the bull's-eyed baby's action of eating meat also stopped.
Ergouzi really wants to stay, there is a feeling of home here, from birth to now, he doesn't know what home is like, maybe the feeling of the bull's-eyed baby sleeping in the bed of the widow should be.
Sometimes, he really hates this society, is a motherless child destined to be a robber in the mountains and forests?
Why didn't the government treat themselves as human beings, they would have had a worry-free childhood, but from a very young age, they and the bull's-eyed baby were worried about the next meal.
Finally, a kind boy wanted to take them in, but the bull's eye baby ate two bowls of meat at a time, and felt that this was a stunned young man, and began to find all kinds of excuses to send them away.
The second dog sighed, slapped the back of the bull's eye's head, and took the lead down the stone mountain.
The bull's-eyed baby felt that she had upset the second dog, so she put down the bowl in her hand and followed.
The two dogs wanted to hear the voice of the young man, but until they came down the mountain, they didn't hear a word of goodbye.
The anger rubbed on his head, and he found a wooden stick on the side of the road and beckoned to the bull's-eyed baby.
The bull's eye baby was very angry when she saw the second dog, but she didn't know where she offended him, so she silently let him vent on her body.
The stick was discounted, and he himself was tired, so he found a big tree and sat down to rest panting.
The bull's eye baby also found a tree far away from the second dog and leaned on it, the stick just now was hit in the thick of the meat, it really didn't hurt much, and the reason for hiding away was that I didn't want the second dog to see him angry.
When the rest was almost over, the second dog came over and touched the bull's-eyed baby's head, pulled him up, and walked away with his shoulders hooked.
After turning a corner on the mountain road, I saw a man lying on the barren grass in the autumn, with a bundle of sturdy firewood erected in front of him, leisurely crossing Erlang's legs, holding a hay in his mouth, humming and chirping, not knowing what strange tune he was singing.
This person has no one else except for someone like Wu Xi.
"Did I scare you?" Wu Xi said.
"I'm afraid it's your excuse, our two brothers were born to live until now, and it's not the credit of God, the thief only knows how to create tragedies one after another in the world, but he didn't take care of my life and the bull's-eyed baby, what is the fate of a nine-palace hurting the sky, if I believe that it is true, I am a fool. ”
The second dog was a little excited, and when he was excited, he couldn't help but want to scold, the bull's eye baby was beaten by himself just now, and he didn't dare to scold the young man, so he had to take the thief out of anger.
"I like to stay in the countryside in order to find a sense of authenticity, and I am not afraid to tell you that nothing in this world is real except me, and it is like living in a dream.
I need someone around me right now, or I'll go crazy, and I need people to help me and my dad rebuild our lives.
The first half of his life was too hard, and I don't want to see him suffer again, so I want to give him a good life, which is the direction I am trying to work towards at this stage.
I always thought that I was the chosen one, and I came here to help those who were suffering, but the thief God made me suffer, and the heavens sent me to the people, and I must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and empty their bodies.
Fuck the chosen son, it's all bullshit, Lao Tzu would rather grandpa live heroically in heaven and earth than be manipulated by others, in the end, we are all the same kind of people, so difficult that we can't live happily for ourselves?"
Seeing that the young man was also scolding the thief, the second dog's heart finally let go, but he didn't understand what the young man said, glanced at the bull's-eyed baby, and found that he had the same expression as himself.
In fact, you don't need to look at the bull's eye baby to know that this is the result.
"Then you have to lead the way well, the road has been very difficult these years. ”
The bull's-eyed baby was the first to react, trotted over, picked up the firewood beside Wu Xi, and walked back with his head down.
It's also good to stay, at least you can eat braised pork.
"My name is Wu Xi, it's still the same sentence, we will be a family in the future, just call me brother, I'm not so hypocritical, and the title of young master is not qualified enough. Wu Xi said.
"My name is Ergouzi, his name is Bull's Eye Baby, they are all children without a father, they are born and long, and they are not exaggerated at all. ”
"The name is synonymous, there is nothing to be particular about, I think it's very good. ”
The three of them talked and laughed and went home, and when Father Wu saw Wu Xi going out with a firewood knife, he knew that he was going to chase these two children, and he had already packed up a grass hut.
The bull's-eyed baby slept on the straw mat, feeling extremely happy and having a home for herself.
He slept soundly that night, and the next day the guests at home didn't know about it.
The person who came was Cao Hui, who specially sent money to Wu Xi.
During the Song Dynasty, gold and silver were not in circulation, and only copper coins could be used as currency in the world.
So Cao Hui very thoughtfully exchanged all the silver for copper coins, a full three hundred yuan, and three ox carts were full.
Now the money is piled up in the yard.
Daddy Wu had never seen so much money, and he couldn't even say anything when he was so excited, his two hands kept rubbing back and forth on his body, because his palms kept sweating out, and he couldn't finish wiping them off.
The second dog and the bull's eye baby had just woken up, and before they had time to wipe off the eye feces, they were stunned by the scene in front of them, and they slept directly on the pile of copper coins, and they couldn't pull it up.
Wu Xi let Cao Hui into the house, made tea, and chatted without a word.
"Brother Wu's family is shabby enough, I just heard that Father Wu is having a miserable life, but I didn't expect it to be like this. ”
It is taboo to say that the master's family is not good in front of the master's family, but Cao Hui has no such concerns, and even changed his title to Brother Wu.
Wu Xi likes Cao Hui's words very much, because this is how they appear close, and only in this way can it show that the business between them is very stable.
"There's no way, my unfilial son has been drifting outside, he just came back, and he is waiting for his brother's money. ”
Wu Xiluo took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl and said.
"It's still Brother Wu's mastery, a small drawing can be exchanged for so much money, and it will be shipped in a steady stream in the future, which makes people envious when they think about it. ”
Cao Hui has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he speaks with an official taste, such a conversation is very boring, so Wu Xi went straight to the point.
"When I came back some time ago, I met Ah Gui from Broken Gold City, and he said that they had been out of salt for a long time, so it wouldn't be your doing, right?"
"The prohibition on the sale of salt and iron to the mountain people is clearly written in the law, and it is an order issued by the magistrate, and it has nothing to do with me. "Cao Hui is very smart, in his situation of attracting people and ghosts, Wu Xi is indeed not his opponent.
"I heard that the monk has been out for a long time and hasn't returned, where did you get him? "Wu Xi is no longer going around in circles.
"We didn't do it. Cao Hui said.
"Alas, I have a heart to you, please make a heart to me too, the monk's whereabouts and the life and death of the mountain people have nothing to do with me, these are all things in the court, but I really don't want to see a day when the Great Song Dynasty will be ruined.
This is an important issue of people's livelihood, if it is not solved, it will cause a catastrophe sooner or later, didn't I tell you about Song Jiang last time?"
Wu Xi was a little dissatisfied with Cao Hui's concealment of his monk's whereabouts, and directly made his words clear.
"Everything seems to be in your hands, who are you, sometimes I can't see through you, you are not like the people of this era at all, and our living habits and styles are very different, I doubt that you are sent by God to spy on us. ”
Cao Hui always said the doubts in his heart.
"Didn't I tell you, I've been in the mountains for fifteen years, and it's normal to be a little different. ”
Wu Xi hurriedly explained.
"Forget it, monk, I'll put it back, you're always right. Cao Hui compromised again.
In Wu Xi's opinion, he is compromising with money, not himself.
Cao Hui led the porter to say goodbye to the cattle that Wu Xi had driven back earlier, and Cao Hui also generously gave it to him.
Wu Xi stood on the side of the street and shouted at Cao Hui from afar: "Your choice is correct!"
Cao Hui didn't turn his head, raised his right hand and raised his middle finger.
No, I remember that this action was dedicated to Cao Hui, this kid is smart, and he understood the truth of the midterm so quickly.
