Chapter Forty-Seven: Little Brother

Xie Chuntao wiped his eyes, stabilized his emotions, and was just about to push open the fence door, when he was startled by a "creaking" sound from behind.

Turning around, I saw a man in black who looked like a savage, limping and clutching the fence wall, crumbling and panting.

The man's black clothes were tattered and covered with weeds. The shirt was torn and barely covered his shoulders, and the pants on his left leg were torn off to reveal half of his legs, which were wrapped in layers of black cloth, as if he was injured.

A black-bore face with a beard, and his beard and hair are covered with weeds.

The whole person was embarrassed.

Visually it's a foreigner.

"Oh, big brother, what's wrong with you?" Xie Chuntao is simple and kind, even if it is a stranger passing by, he is willing to help, not to mention that he is injured, and he can't get over it if he doesn't help.

"Big sister, I'm not that old, not a big brother." Xie Xiaolian was quite hurt in his heart, he was in his prime, he had not yet married, and he was called the eldest brother by a married village woman, and he was quite unhappy.

The married village woman in front of him looked older than the village woman who helped him bandage his wounds in the moonlight that day, and he shouted that there was nothing wrong with the eldest sister.

As soon as he spoke, what did not match Lao Cheng's face was that he had a youthful smell.

Xie Chuntao thought to herself, you can pull it down, her whole body is rolled like this, she is still injured, and she can't tell her age with a face of vicissitudes, so she still pays attention to what to call it, it's not bad that she didn't shout uncle.

"Eldest sister, is this your home? Can you beg for a bowl of water to drink? Xie Xiaolian pursed her chapped lips, and the eldest sister in front of her looked amiable, just like the girl who saved him that day, she looked like a simple and good person.

"Why not. But your leg is injured like this, I'm afraid you can't just drink water. Xie Chuntao's eyes looked at Xie Xiaolian's exposed half-amputated legs.

Xie Xiaolian blushed for a while, and her bare legs, which had not yet become married, had been looked at by the two village women.

It's all to blame for Si Tianjian's gang of magic sticks, they have a family and a mouth, but they let him walk outside with a single dog.

It happened that Bai Dazhuang came back from the field with a hoe, and saw his daughter-in-law talking to a stranger with a leg injury, so he came to understand a little, threw down the hoe and couldn't help but say that he was going to take Xie Xiaolian home.

After Xie Xiaolian struggled desperately to refuse, Bai Dazhuang helped him sit on the big stone at the door.

"Brother, you are injured like this, and you twist it like a big girl, our family is a serious person, and we won't do anything to you at home." Bai Dazhuang is a real person, and his words are straightforward.

Xie Xiaolian: "......"

Xie Chuntao brought a bowl of sugar water from the kitchen, took a few steamed buns, thought about it and kicked the goose eggs left over from the morning, and handed them to Xie Xiaolian.

"I'll just drink a bowl of water." Xie Xiaolian picked up the water in front of him and drank it in one go, are the people in Shenshu Village so enthusiastic?

It seems that the family is living an average life, with steamed buns and goose eggs, and he is very embarrassed to eat them.

"Big brother, I don't know if you're married?" Bai Dazhuang suddenly asked abruptly.

Xie Xiaolian shook her head: "No." ”

Just drink a bowl of water, and you have to understand the marital situation before drinking? Xie Xiaolian looked confused.

"Then why are you strong, it's okay to say that you want to get married, you are not married now, your leg injury is quite serious, you can't drink a bowl of water, in case you don't get lame, it won't affect you to find a daughter-in-law."

Bai Dazhuang looked honest and handed the big goose egg to Xie Xiaolian's mouth.

Xie Chuntao nodded beside him: "That's it, you eat these steamed buns and goose eggs, you are injured and hungry, don't leave any sequelae." ”

Xie Xiaolian: "......"

Xie Xiaolian was wounded by Xia Qinghe to stop bleeding and bandage his wound in the mass grave that day, and Xia Qinghe also left him a big bag of food and drink, and he slept there with the bright moon and breeze all night.

After dawn, he felt that he was fine, so he limped to continue to look for auspicious traces in the mountains.

After looking for these two days, the leg injury recurred, so I had to endure and go down the mountain to Shenshu Village.

At first, he wanted to find Wu Langzhong in Xia Qinghe's mouth, but a few children showed him the way, and found that the door of Wu Langzhong's house was locked, so he had to leave, and he couldn't walk when he walked to the door of Lao Bai's house.

Xie Xiaolian drank the Bai family's steamed goose eggs and drank the Bai family's water, only to feel alive, sitting on the big stone and thanking Bai Dazhuang and Xie Chuntao.

"Steamed buns and water are not worth anything, and there is no difficulty for anyone to go out." Xie Chuntao said.

Bai Dazhuang nodded, pulled each other enthusiastically, introduced themselves to each other, and knew their respective names and surnames.

"We're still in our own family, and my surname is Xie." After Xie Xiaolian said her name, Xie Chuntao looked surprised.

"That's really fateful, I said that the more I look at the eldest sister, the more cordial it is." Xie Xiaolian thanked Xie Chuntao again.

"The man in black is millet in Shu, the man in black is in Shu."

Xiao Fuyuan saw that Shu Xiao, the black-clothed man who took her on horseback that day, actually appeared at the door, and ran over excitedly.

She wanted to ride a horse again.

However, why is Shu Huang so down.

Is it because the horse is not around?

"Hey, little Yuanbao, this is your home? What kind of fate do you say this is, it's too coincidental. Xie Xiaolian was very surprised when she saw Xiao Fuyuan's cute little face.

What, the person in front of you is the person who rode a horse to the village some time ago to buy a homestead?

The village chief was still talking about it some time ago, saying that the black-faced Housheng who came to buy the homestead was not satisfied with a few pieces of land, and asked a lot of things in the village, and then disappeared in a flash that day, and I don't know if it was a liar.

He also beat gongs and drums to warn the people in the village to be optimistic about their own children, and not to come to the village to abduct children from other places.

Recently, many villages in Nanguan Town have lost children.

Bai Dazhuang remembered the village chief's warning, evacuated his sister from Xie Xiaolian and held him in his arms.

"Brother, Shu Huang is a good person." Xiao Fuyuan said lying in Bai Dazhuang's arms.

Bai Dazhuang hugged his sister, not a good person, his sister is not who wants to hug whom.

He can't stand it, his sister is enthusiastic about outsiders, and he is his sister's big brother.

Xie Xiaolian felt that the eldest brother in front of him, who was extremely enthusiastic at the beginning, suddenly had a little cold attitude.

"Little brother, I see that the cloth wrapped around the wound on your leg is dirty, and my sister will put on a new one for you."

Xie Chuntao saw that the strap on Xie Xiaolian's leg was stiffly wrapped around his leg, it must be bloody, but the black cloth didn't bleed.

Since they are all from their own family, Xie Chuntao consciously brought in the role of sister, and called out to his younger brother as soon as he opened his mouth.

She also has two younger brothers at home, and the role of the eldest sister is at ease.

Xie Xiaolian shook his head and refused, and there was still Xie Chuntao's man standing in front of him, Bai Dazhuang.

But Xie Xiaolian may not know that the people of Shenshu Village are not bound by the fact that men and women are not intimate, and Bai Dazhuang felt that his daughter-in-law had done the right thing for Xie Chuntao to take the initiative to redress his wounds.

Helping people? Whatever you can help, try to help.

It's not that he took off his legs, but changed the strap, it's a trivial matter.

Xie Chuntao didn't care what Xie Xiaolian thought, three times and five divided by two ends of a basin of hot water, put a piece of cloth on his arm, and Bai Dazhuang helped press Xie Xiaolian's leg to untie him.

Xie Xiaolian was struggling, and the old lady Bai heard the tearing movement at the door from the firewood room and walked out.

The person in front of me was the man in black who rode a horse with Xiao Yuanbao that day.

I was stunned.

"Hello old man." While Xie Xiaolian struggled, he didn't forget to say hello, Xiao Yuanbao's grandmother, he knew.

Xie Chuntao finally tore open Xie Xiaolian's strap, only to see a big hole on his leg, the skin and flesh were turning, and he was bleeding, and he was frightened.

"Your leg injury is a bit serious, you have to find Wu Langzhong." The old lady Bai leaned over and took a look, this wound is so deep, if you don't look for Lang Zhong, you are afraid that it is possible to die of tetanus.

"Da Zhuang, you go to Wu Langzhong's house." Old lady Bai instructed Bai Dazhuang.

"Wu Langzhong is not at home, and the daughter-in-law of Tie Niu in the west of the village gave birth to a child and invited him away." Xie Chuntao knows the situation of each family in the village very well.

"It's time for the child to be born in the morning, I'll go to Tie Niu's house to please, don't be intercepted halfway."

There is only one Langzhong in Sili and Eight Townships, and Wu Langzhong is very popular.

Bai Dazhuang agreed to go to Tie Niu's house to ask for someone.

Xie Xiaolian couldn't stop it, a rural langzhong, who was delivering and watching his legs, was too miscellaneous to be afraid that it would be unreliable.

He'd better go to town, the little master is here now, and he has the best doctor in the world.
