Chapter 161: Retribution
When I opened my eyes slowly, I saw a simple wooden frame, and on the wooden frame, you could still see a lot of messy thatch. Xiao Chen sat up suddenly, and found that he was lying on a wooden bed, and in front of him was a simple thatched house, and there was nothing to see in the room except a wooden table.
"Where is this?" Xiao Chen muttered to himself, he only remembered that he was pulled by the wind and dived, and then he didn't know what happened after that, but judging from the situation in front of him, he was still alive, and that was a great thing.
Just thinking about it, a middle-aged lady of forty or fifty years old suddenly walked in outside the house, the eldest lady was still holding a bowl of water in her hand, seeing that Xiao Chen was awake, the eldest lady hurriedly smiled and said: "Young man, your life is really big, you can actually survive in the dragon river, it is really a bodhisattva blessing." ”
The eldest lady had a thick accent, but it could be seen that the eldest lady was really happy for Xiao Chen.
Wait, I'm still alive, what about the wind talk? Xiao Chen suddenly reacted, although he and Fengyu met in Pingshui, but at least they were in the same trouble, and hurriedly asked the eldest mother: "Auntie, there is another person with me, have you seen it?" ”
The eldest lady thought for a moment and said, "You mean him, he is better than you, or did he take you to the shore?" ”
Hearing that the wind was fine, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
"He actually saved me......" Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled, it seemed that he owed him a great favor.
Turning over and getting out of bed, Xiao Chen said to the eldest mother: "Auntie, I want to go out for a walk." ”
The eldest lady waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, you've been in a coma for almost a day, let's eat something first." ”
After being reminded by the eldest mother, Xiao Chen realized that his stomach was already growling with hunger.
The eldest lady handed the bowl in her hand to Xiao Chen and said: "Look at the dress of the two of you, I think you are also from a rich and noble family, the eldest lady's family is simple, and the men and children have gone to the army, only this clear porridge, don't dislike it, you will drink it." ”
After taking the bowl, Xiao Chen realized that where was the clear water, but a bowl of porridge with rice grains, but the rice in this bowl was pitiful, almost only a thin layer at the bottom, but it was boiled by the eldest lady, and it looked like a bowl of muddy water.
Xiao Chen assured that he had never seen such a bad meal in his life, but he still held the bowl in both hands and drank the porridge cleanly. He understood that this was the eldest mother's intention, and even if Xiao Chen resisted again, he was unwilling to waste the eldest mother's kindness.
Handing the empty bowl back to the eldest lady, Xiao Chen smiled: "It's delicious." ”
The eldest lady smiled: "People, when you are hungry, everything is delicious, but you are still young, and you don't have much strength to eat these." ”
Xiao Chen patted his chest heavily and said, "That's not it, after eating this bowl of rice from my aunt, I feel full of energy." ”
Seeing that Xiao Chen was comforting herself, the eldest lady shook her head and left with a smile on her face.
On the edge of the bed, Xiao Chen's Yangchen sword was quietly hung, Xiao Chen was a little surprised, the eldest lady who was so poor in life actually didn't have the heart of a thief to steal her Yangchen sword, so that the sword was also painstakingly built by the old prince, and it was enough for the eldest lady to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.
Perhaps because of the simple nature of the countryman, Xiao Chen found that almost nothing was lost on his body. This made Xiao Chen admire the eldest mother more and more, and put the Yangchen sword on his back again, Xiao Chen slowly walked out of the grass house, and what caught his eye was the structure of one courtyard and three houses, in addition to Xiao Chen's side house, there was also a main house in the middle, which was the residence of the eldest mother.
Opposite is a hay stack house, full of miscellaneous items and hay, which at first glance can be described as destitute. Xiao Chen secretly thought to himself that this eldest lady could be regarded as saving half of his life, and when he returned to Yong'an in the future, he would have to repay him.
In the main house, the eldest lady is constantly busy, thinking that it is inseparable from trivial things such as washing dishes and cooking, Xiao Chen has the heart to help, but he doesn't know anything, so he has to go around.
As soon as I walked out of the courtyard gate, I happened to meet the wind whispers coming back.
Feng Yu's face looked a little paler, and he was still holding a bundle of cyan vegetables that Xiao Chen had never seen before.
Seeing Xiao Chen, Fengyu still said with an indifferent expression: "Are you awake?" ”
"Wake up." Xiao Chen scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "That, thank you for saving your life." ”
Fengyu glanced at Xiao Chen: "That's it?" ”
Xiao Chen said helplessly: "I have already said thank you very seriously, but I know that the grace of saving lives is more important than the sky, you can rest assured, when I return to my territory, I will definitely take you to the best Qinglou for a few days." ”
Fengyu said with disgust: "Dogs can't change eating." ”
Xiao Chen glared and said, "Then I'll give you a green building?" ”
Feng Yu pushed Xiao Chen away and said, "I knew you were going to tell me this, I should have thrown you into the Rolling Dragon River and drowned." Get out of the way. ”
Xiao Chen knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't want to be despised so much, so he hurriedly followed Fengyu, pointed to the thing in Fengyu's arms and said, "What is this?" ”
Fengyu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Xiao Chen like an idiot, and said: "Wild vegetables, they are things that cattle and sheep eat in the wild, haven't you seen them?" ”
Xiao Chen was stunned, he was born in the palace since he was a child, grew up in Kyoto, and after so many years of pampered life, he really hadn't seen such a thing as wild vegetables.
"So, this is for us?" Xiao Chen asked in a condensed voice.
Fengyu turned his head to look in the direction of the grass hut and said, "For the people, it is already very happy to have wild vegetables to eat." ”
As if thinking of something, Fengyu suddenly said: "Don't you want to repay me, in this way, if you can get a meal of meat, then you will repay me." ”
When Xiao Chen heard this, his face finally showed a look of pride and said: "What's so difficult about that, the master doesn't have much else, except that he has a lot of money, just buy some meat, isn't that a simple thing?" ”
Saying that, Xiao Chen took it into his arms, but found that the silver ticket he was carrying had already been soaked by the river, and when he thought of putting down his arrogant words just now, Xiao Chen's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Fengyu sneered and said, "Forget it, I don't think you can do it, so I won't embarrass you." ”
Xiao Chen, who has not admitted defeat since he was a child, subconsciously straightened his chest and said: "Who said I can't do it, you look at it, I have to get you a meal of meat today, and you don't dare to underestimate me in the future." ”
Feng Yu smiled playfully: "Really? ”
At this time, Xiao Chen was already chasing ducks to the shelves, although he didn't know where to get meat, but the words had already been spoken, and naturally there was no reason to take it back, looking at the sun near the west, Xiao Chen said in a condensed voice:
"You let the eldest lady wait for me, before the evening, I will definitely come back with meat......"
