Chapter 67: Chu Yu's Ancestors
What kind of heart?
Leng Bai recalled the slightly deep eyes when the deputy team left, and instantly shook, even if he regarded the captain as a bosom friend and wanted to have an in-depth discussion with the other party, now he also stopped thinking about it, and quickly found an excuse to run away.
Sure enough, as soon as he walked out of the main room door, he turned a corner and saw a deputy in a dark robe waiting for him.
"Any idea why I like this color?"
Facing the other party's active question, Leng Bai's throat rolled down with difficulty, "Because black can hide blood stains." ”
Feng Buli walked slowly, passed by Leng Bai for a moment, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a little meaning: "You are very smart." Since the captain has a bad brain, you and Hua Buyao should mention her more. ”
"If we ...... Don't mention it? Leng Bai dared to ask.
The wind did not leave the light of his eyes and dimmed again, "If an unpredictable end happens...... It's cold and white, and I can't control it myself. ”
Leng Bai wants to cry without tears, isn't this like a time bomb.
When Leng Bai set up the carriage and went to Huancai Pavilion to pick up Hua Buyao, he trembled and told Hua Buyao that his words were intact, and the latter laughed at him, "You are also a martial arts master, how can you pair up with the deputy team, like a quail, look at you, you are still trembling, and you are out." ”
Leng Bai still wants to smoke a cigarette to calm down.
He slowed down for a long time before he said, "Sister Hua, you said that the deputy team won't go crazy again, right?" ”
"Thinking too much." Hua Bu rolled his eyes, "There is no danger here, the captain's body has been seen by the old doctor, only saying that there is a perennial lack of nutrition, and when he comes back, he is still as strong as a cow, how can there be any problems?" As long as the captain is okay, what is the vice team crazy about? ”
"But, the captain has a lot of operations, he has to take a concubine for the deputy team, if it's you, what should you do?"
"Of course, it's to correct the Fa on the spot with the people you like." Hua Buyan yawned and said, "The deputy team is also cowardly, how long has it been here, and the captain has not been eaten and wiped clean, the strength of this ink, tsk, I am anxious to look at it." ”
"Who's to say it's not......"
The protagonist of the topic of the two, Liu Yan is choosing an old woman who will replace Zhang's mother in the short term.
She went to the village for a walk, and just as she felt that she had found nothing, and was about to go back, she heard a cry from a dilapidated courtyard, "Milk ......"
"Don't die, ......"
"I won't eat, milk, I'll work, don't leave me, milk ......"
The cry was intermittent, weak, and almost dead to the touch.
When she saw that the wall was not high, she jumped up and swept her eyes at the wall. There are only granddaughters, the door is open, and the granddaughter hugs the old man and cries.
Liu Yan saw that the old man was not very old, his hair was half white, and he looked like he was about to die, she hesitated, jumped off the wall, symbolically knocked on the door, and pushed the door in.
"Hello little girl, I'm here to beg for a drink." Liu Yan hesitated and asked, "Are there anyone else in your family?" ”
The little girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old, skinny, her cheeks were a little boneless, her eyes were boneless, she was shocked by Liu Yan's words, and hugged her grandmother who only had her last breath left in her arms.
Liu Yan raised her eyebrows, "I've walked all the way, I'm tired, I just want to beg for water." ”
"Light Rain ......"
The little girl wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her cuffs, got up and said, "Milk, don't talk, I'll pour water." ”
There was still water in the tank, and the little girl scooped it into the bowl, and trotted over with the notched bowl under Liu Yan's gaze.
In ancient times, there was no habit of boiling water to drink, Liu Yan glanced at the notched bowl, looked at the impurities floating on the water, and simply lowered her lips, and put down two pieces of hard flour buns, "I didn't have any silver on me, this is a reward, thank you." ”
Liu Yan turned around and was about to leave, when the girl said, "I know you!" You're the wife of a new big family! ”
Liu Yan didn't stop, and the girl's voice was a little anxious, "Big lady, please, help us!" I can do everything, feed chickens and ducks, raise pigs and farm, I will ......"
Liu Yan paused slightly, turned around, and saw the girl kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, "Our family doesn't accept it, and we can't do it." ”
"I'll do it, I'll do anything."
"Girl, you have to think clearly, when you enter our courtyard, you have to sign a deed of sale."
The girl didn't hesitate at all, she was about the end of her rope, and kowtowed on the ground, "I think clearly, big lady, you can take us......"
"Don't be in a hurry to kowtow, whether I accept it or not, it depends on your performance." Liu Yan frowned and said, "Get up." You and your grandmother eat something first, and then come to our yard after eating...... Do you know where I live? ”
"He who knows, he knows." The girl got up and nodded hurriedly.
Liu Yan bowed slightly, "What's your name?" ”
"Chu Yu."
When Liu Yan returned to the courtyard, it happened to be raining in the spring, and she was in a hurry to avoid the rain, and she heard a few villagers carrying hoes complaining, "What the hell, it rains just after irrigation, why doesn't it rain before irrigation?" If we can't grow grain this year, we have to say something else. ”
Liu Yan's own strength should be the fastest, but after applying chemical fertilizer, there needs to be a waiting period, and then the area is huge, and the progress is not very fast. What's more, Zhang Da occasionally had to be instructed to do other things, which delayed the project.
This rain doesn't seem to have much effect on them.
When the rain was lighter, Liu Yan rushed into the rain, and ran into the granddaughter wearing a hat under the eaves of the courtyard gate.
Liu Yan patted the rain on her shoulder indifferently, "Here?" Let's go, sit in the house. ”
Chu Yu was about to take off the hat, when he heard Liu Yan wave his hand and say, "Okay, I'm all wet, if you want to take it off and give it to me, then you have to get wet too?" The two of them couldn't get wet. ”
Liu Yan asked the two of them to wait in the study first, and she went to the shower room, planning to rinse off briefly so as not to catch a cold.
This courtyard is big, but there are not many servants, except for Liu Yan at this time, it seems to be quiet.
Chu Yu pulled Grandma Chu's sleeve, "Milk ......"
"This family looks kind, don't worry."
"Hmmm......"
Liu Yan washed up and came to the door of the study with an oil-paper umbrella.
After putting away the oil-paper umbrella, he left it outside the door and took out the tray from the space. There is a purple clay pot on the tray, the pot contains ginger brown sugar water, in addition, there are small snacks, the appearance is not exquisite, but the taste is acceptable, it is all made by Zhang's mother, and she put it into the space.
She pushed the door in with one hand, put the tray on the table, sat down and poured herself a cup of ginger brown sugar water, and waited until her hands and feet were a little warm, then poured two cups, and motioned to her grandparents and grandchildren: "Drink both, you're welcome." ”
Chu Yu held the small cup, and as soon as he entered his mouth, he felt a sweet and spicy taste, which dispelled a lot of the chill in the rain.
After the Chu Yu disaster, I had never seen sugar at home, but I had stained it before, and I had an endless aftertaste of the taste, and before I knew it, a cup had been drunk. Looking at the milk slowly, taking a small sip, her face instantly flushed.
Liu Yan propped her head, looked at her ancestors and grandchildren, and said, "In addition to doing farm work, what else are you good at?" Is there anyone else in the family? ”
