Chapter 33 "The Road Knows the Strength of the Feet, the Iron Hoof Grows Forever"

The two days passed in a blink of an eye, and it happened to be a good weather shrouded in clouds, which would not delay the trip on the road.

Xu Wan and Chu Yuan said that they would go to the county together to have a look, so they entrusted the Bai family to Xiaodouzi to take care of it temporarily.

Chu Yuan patiently advised: "I put the porridge on the stove to warm, remember to be careful when serving." ”

Xiaodouzi stiffened his face, afraid that he would listen to a word from the fork, and with the entrustment of the eldest brother, he must do it smoothly.

He replied with a straight look: "Big brother, don't worry." I've seen you hold it many times, so I'll be careful. ”

Xu Wan looked at him sensibly cute from the side, and reached out to touch it, which made Xiaodouzi's round face red, and he was ashamed to answer like an innocent little girl.

She didn't forget to praise, "Little Beans is really good." ”

Xu Wan also realized that Xiaodouzi seemed to react especially to praise. It is not difficult to see his desire, a strict eldest brother by his side, a frail mother, and it is normal for him to want to be praised by his elders at a young age.

Xiaodouzi stared at Xu Wan's messy hands, and said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law... You and your eldest brother hurry up, or you will be delayed. ”

Carefully moved his round face, afraid that Xu Wan would make another sneak attack and make him embarrassed.

Xu Wan nodded and looked at Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan nodded and said slowly: "Look after the family, we will come back as soon as possible." ”

Although Xiaodouzi is also yearning for the county, he can't leave his mother alone at home, he feels that when he grows up, he should also learn to take care of his mother and share the burden for his eldest brother.

Xu Wan was keenly aware of the little pitiful eagerness's eyes, and said secretly: Next time, I must bring the little pity with him, so that he can also see the outside world.

"Be careful on the road."

Xiaodouzi lay on the side of the door, watching the figures of the two walk away, her round face showed reluctance, but she didn't say a word, and restrained herself in the bottom of her heart.

……

There was no paved cement here, and the soil was mixed with gravel, grass and trees, everything.

In ancient times, the soles of Nad's shoes were not thick, so it was okay to walk for a while and not feel uncomfortable. After walking for a long time, I feel awkward.

In front of him was an endless road, and Xu Wan was dazzled and couldn't tell where the end was.

She sighed and said, "Don't pretend, we idiots don't laugh at fools, do you have a sore foot?" ”

She was in terrible pain, sore and numb, and felt like her feet were about to wear out the skin. Walked breathlessly, thirsty.

At this moment, she really wanted to chant a poem, and she really chanted.

"The road knows the strength of the feet, and the iron hooves are long over time."

Chu Yuan looked at her like she was about to collapse, and felt funny.

Before going out, she patted her chest unashamedly and said, go, she will go to the county seat even if she breaks her leg. It's only been half an hour since you left, and you're lazy by chanting Hu Shi? Can't bear it?

Chu Yuan pursed his thin lips and held back a smile.

"Well, the feet are a little bigger than yours, and they are rough."

Men, they all love face, even if they are really uncomfortable, they have to pretend, how to complain in front of women.

But to be honest, he used to live a pampered life, a pair of precious hands only held a pen and a scalpel, and maintained a fairy posture that did not ask about the world all year round. It's really tiring to walk like this.

Xu Wan was not convinced, but she couldn't bear to be tired, so she rolled her eyes and walked to a stone on the side of the road and sat down.

She waved her hand and pulled out the water bladder.

"Rest, let me rehydrateβ€”β€”β€” goo-goo-gooβ€”β€”β€”-goo

Good fellow, look at her posture and drink a lot of people in one go.

The corners of Chu Yuan's mouth twitched, and he always felt that he would not be able to drink water today.

Xu Wan proudly tightened the lid and asked him, "Do you want it?" ”

After asking, look at him with an inquiring eye, glancing at his feet from time to time.

Chu Yuan's two toes were nervously hooked by her staring, moved to sit down next to her, and specially hid his feet to the side to avoid the hot gaze.

He quickly replied, "Yes." ”

Regardless of the fact that the water bladder was drunk by her, Chu Yuan took a sip meticulously, just the right amount.

Xu Wan stared at the hard outline of his side face, and reacted in hindsight that they were kissing indirectly.

Pretty and two suspicious blushes surfaced, but fortunately, because she had been walking for too long, her cheeks were a little red, and Chu Yuan didn't see anything.

Once seated, people tend to be distracted.

Xu Wan felt that it seemed quite comfortable to sit like this, and he was not in a hurry to hurry.

casually found a topic and asked Chu Yuan: "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, are you Gui Geng this year?" ”

Just ask, Xu Wan can't change the problem of loving his brain, and without waiting for Chu Yuan to answer, he has already imagined several ages.

An old man in his fifties and seventies, a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties with a family, or a young man who has just graduated from college.....

Except for the first Xu Wan, who is not easy to accept, she can accept the others, and she can develop into a confidant, and she has nothing to nag. If it was an old man, she didn't know whether to call Dad or Grandpa......

Chu Yuan can now guess that she must be making up her mind again as soon as he looks at Xu Wan's expression.

The veins of his temples jumped, and he didn't have to think about it to know that what was going on in her head was something out of tune.

Chu Yuan pursed his lips and snorted.

"Twenty-nine."

"Huhβ€”β€”β€”β€”"

As for what Xu Wan didn't say, she started to travel at this time, which is a coincidence.

Suddenly, someone who was missing surfaced......

Chu Yuan never did anything to suffer, and stabbed her thin arm with his elbow.

Originally, Xu Wan only sat halfway on the stone, and let him stab him, his body leaned to the side, and he almost fell down.

Xu Wan stretched his leg to avoid a fall.

She had something on her mind, or she would have settled accounts with him a long time ago, so she just jumped and jumped forward.

"I'm twenty-seven."

Chu Yuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then immediately caught up with her.

How can it be so coincidental, with the same name and the same age...... At this moment, I looked back at her face, although it was young and immature, and it had not yet grown, it seemed that there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity......

……

There is a faded plaque hanging at the gate of the county seat, and there is an old atmosphere everywhere, and the ancient taste is very strong.

I don't know if it's because the people of this land are too poor, and they didn't even receive the copper plates of the city when they crossed the city gate.

This made Xu Wan feel that he had inadvertently saved another sum, spread his legs, couldn't stop him, and entered the city like a hillbilly, looking east and west. A pair of beautiful eyes will stop for a moment when they see anything rare.

Chu Yuan didn't have any expression, like a bodyguard, staring at her without blinking, following behind his tail.

Xu Wan stood in front of a clay figure stall and asked the old man who pinched the clay figure with a smile: "How much does this cost?" ”

The old man spread out one hand and shook it four times.

"One twenty wen."

Xu Wanqiao's face wrinkled, "Wowβ€”β€”β€”β€” then I'll take a look..."

The old man has been pinching clay figures in the county for decades, and he has never seen a little girl who changes his face so quickly, and he took a look at her more.

Xu Wan went to the next stall again, she didn't spend money so restrained before, and when she saw something she liked after work, she would buy it for herself at the right price.

Right now...... If you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are not at home......

She is now a real difficult household.

Chu Yuan was speechless, if it weren't for the fact that he knew that she was too expensive, and the family would have been able to make trouble for her.

It's just that when Xu Wan stopped at a stall selling knives, Chu Yuan looked at her holding a small knife, showing nostalgia, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

The palms dangling at the side of his legs were clenched into fists, and he secretly made up his mind that he would buy her all kinds of knives if he had money in the future.

Xu Wan didn't know that one of his actions had made Chu Yuan have such a dangerous idea.

She was with a scalpel, and she hadn't operated in a few days, so she missed it a little.

But she doesn't want a pig-killing knife!

Xu Wan saw enough, and turned around to call him: "You come." ”

Chu Yuan thought that she didn't want to wait for a moment, and wanted to have it right away.

Gritted his teeth and said, "You can buy it if you want." ”

Xu Wan glanced at him strangely, and pointed to a flag planted on the side of the stall, with three words on it.

Pig-killing knives.

She pretended to be innocent and said, "But there are no pigs at home for me to kill......"

Chu Yuan's eyelids jumped, knowing that he had misunderstood first, but the cunning color that jumped in her innocent eyes felt that she was not innocent.

He said in his heart: He may not dare to kill pigs, if she really wants to meet a pig, she will definitely hide behind him and scream.

Believe you, a ghost.
