Chapter 47 [Girl Niuniu, What Have You Eaten]
After walking a short distance along the official road, the sound of running water was faintly heard in front of me, and as the distance approached, the sound of water gradually changed.
Yun Jingshu has been running around all year round, and she has books from all over the world on her body, only to see her reach out to her chest and stroke, the wooden card hidden in her clothes flashed slightly, and the next moment, an atlas appeared in her hand.
After she opened the album, she flipped through it carefully, and then said with a smile: "There is a river here, the name is Yi River, after crossing it by boat, it is not far from Yicheng." ”
Bell was very excited, and said, "Crossing the river by boat?" Is it the kind of riding the wind and waves described in the book? Okay, yes, I want to try. ”
Yun Jingshu laughed and said, "The river here is not wide, I'm afraid it won't allow you to experience riding the wind and waves." ”
However, the bell was still excited, and ran forward with her arm, and gradually the sound of the water became clearer, and finally she saw a river.
"Wow, there's a ferry!"
The little bell cheered, pointed ahead, and said, "That should be the ferry described in the book, right?" ”
I saw that at the junction of the river bank and the official road, there was a low and collapsed simple thatched hut, and at the edge of the thatched hut, a wooden platform was built along the river.
Yun Jingshu smiled and said, "Yes, this is the ferry described in the book. ”
At this time, there were already seven or eight people at the crossing, three or two of them gathered together, and the others were sitting alone, and although they could not see that they were guarded against others, they were not willing to talk to each other.
Little Bell glanced at it and asked curiously, "What are those people waiting for?" Why didn't the boat cross them? ”
Yun Jingshu smiled again, and explained warmly: "The common people have always been thrifty, because they have to pay the boatmen to cross the river, so they will wait at the ferry......"
The little bell suddenly realized and said, "I understand, this is to save expenses, gather more people, and everyone share the money." ”
Yun Jingshu said: "That's the truth. ”
said very pleased, and said: "Sure enough, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, I should have brought you out to see the world as soon as possible." ”
Bell grinned and said, "It's not too late." ”
Gragging Yun Jingshu's arm, he hurriedly ran to the ferry.
……
The people at the ferry seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and then they were overjoyed when they saw someone coming again, and greeted again and again: "Big sister, little girl, come over quickly, you can just take a boat." ”
Yun Jingshu held the little bell's hand, deliberately pretended to be shabby and bitter, and asked, "Our mother and daughter didn't carry luggage, can we share some less money?" ”
As a result, the people laughed, and one of them said, "Big sister, you're too calculating, aren't you?" There are so many of us who share it together, and everyone can't share a few dollars together, and you still want to bargain, you are really a good hand at living. ”
Another person said, "But let's not talk about it, you have to ask the boatman who supports the boat." ”
Yun Jingshu's eyes turned slightly, and he looked at the boatman sitting on the boat.
The little bell also looked over, and suddenly said softly, and said in surprise: "Mother, look, he only has one leg." ”
The little girl went out for the first time, and she felt new about everything, and couldn't help but say, "With only one leg, can you hold the boat?" ”
But seeing the boatman smile heartily, he said heartily: "Don't worry, you girl, promise to send you across the river safely......"
The boatman paused as he spoke, looked at the little bell and said: "What a cute girl, people feel well-behaved at a glance, I also have a baby at home, and I must be very well-behaved when I grow up." ”
The little bell jumped over and asked, "Are you also a girl in your family?" I can be friends with her. ”
The boatman laughed and said, "It's okay to be a friend." It's just that she's only four years old, so she's a lot younger than you. ”
"It turned out to be a little sister!"
Bell blinked, smiled and introduced himself: "Hello Uncle Boatman, my name is Bell, I am fourteen years old this year, ten years older than your daughter. ”
The boatman laughed again and said, "Okay, what a good name." My doll is called Niu Niu, and the name is not as good as yours. ”
"Niu Niu?"
The bell muttered the name and laughed crisply: "This name is very good, I feel very good." ”
The boatman was immediately happy, waved his big hand, and said, "Exempt you two from the boat." ”
The people on the ferry were quite envious, and they sarcastically said: "Liu Zhuzi, you are a rare atmosphere." In order to earn money by supporting the boat at the ferry, you often do not go home for ten days and a half months, live in a broken shack, and eat and drink as much as you can. Why did you change sex today, and you actually exempted other mothers and daughters from boat money? ”
The boatman replied sarcastically, "Can you be as sweet as this little girl?" Do you call me uncle like her? ”
The people snorted.
The bell was curious, tilted his head and asked the boatman, "Uncle, do you live at the ferry?" Didn't you go home for ten days and a half? ”
The boatman nodded and said, "It's to live at the ferry, and it's convenient to live here." If you live in the county seat, you go back and forth every day, and the time delayed on the road is enough to support a ferry. ”
Saying that, he sighed, and said, "Making money to support your family, that's the only way." ”
The bell blinked and said sympathetically: "Then you can't see your family when you live here, don't you miss your children?" ”
The boatman was slightly stunned, subconsciously looked across the riverbank, and muttered: "Let you say it, uncle, I really miss home, especially my Niuniu, I haven't hugged her for seven or eight days." ”
After a pause, he muttered again: "The last time I saw Niuniu, it was when my daughter-in-law came to give me clothes, and Niuniu came with me and played on the ferry all day. ”
Suddenly, as if remembering something, he turned his head to look at the bell and asked, "Little girl, can you do Uncle a favor?" When you cross the river and arrive at the county seat, come to my house and give me a letter. Let's just say that I miss the doll very much, and I'm worried that she will spoil her stomach last time here. ”
The bell was slightly stunned, and said very curiously: "Did your daughter eat anything bad?" ”
The boatman sighed and said, "The family is too poor, so the child will inevitably be greedy, and he is too young and ignorant, so he will stuff everything into his mouth when he sees ......."
He pointed to the surface of the river and said, "It was by this ferry that a broken box rushed out of the river, and I don't know how long it had been soaking, and the box was rotten to the point that it was not in shape, and it was dirty and mucus, wrapped in a soft egg. ”
"Uncle, I estimated that it might be a turtle or soft-shelled turtle egg, and I was going to burn it on fire and bake it for Niuniu to eat."
"I didn't know that my girl was so greedy, she couldn't wait for me to call it a day and go back to the house, the egg wasn't baked at all, so she was eaten raw."
When the bell heard this, he couldn't help but nod his little head and said, "I understand, no wonder you are worried that your daughter will eat a bad stomach." ”
The boatman said 'um', and said expectantly: "Uncle, I will waive the boat money for your two mothers, would you like to go to my house to carry a letter, and by the way, see if my Niuniu has eaten a bad stomach?" ”
The bell patted his little chest and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I can't shirk this kind of thing." ”
From beginning to end, Yun Jingshu had been quietly watching, as if he was cultivating the bell's ability to deal with things, so he didn't make a sound to stop it.
And the boatman was very happy, picked up the boat, laughed, and said loudly: "Then it's decided, don't forget to go to my house." Little girl, let's get on the boat. ”
The boat was propped up, the ferry moved slightly, the river was paddled with waves, and the little bells cheered excitedly.
She was raised in the palace since she was a child, and she hadn't seen the world for 14 years.
Yun Jingshu sat quietly in the corner of the ferry, looking at the waves on the river with his eyes leisurely, and his eyes extended into the distance, as if he was looking at the county seat.
Obviously it is a small Yicheng County, but this eldest princess came straight to the ......
