Chapter 1: Birds in the Clouds
In winter, a touch of green coriander is sprinkled on the hot sweet and sour fish, and some garlic slices are sliced.
Use a spoon to scoop a spoonful of sweet and sour fish broth from the plate to make it taste sweet to the heart.
Although the green vegetables were folded because they lost a lot of water, the garlic cloves also sprouted a lot of green shoots.
Looking at his lively daughter, he realized that this world had become a young man's world. He no longer has a young heart, and he can't be innocent and happy at all.
The veteran's name is Qi, and the word is three. Qi San, a very common name, was an ordinary veteran of the Yan Dynasty. It has been collected on the Great Wall of Yan for decades, and now, it can no longer be separated. It has taken root and sprouted, just like the soybean, which has taken root. It's hard to pull it out again.
......
Looking at the beauty in the snow in a red dress, the slug that rode on his neck when he was a child has also grown into a big girl. Time, I don't know how much this pig-killing knife has been buried. At his age, he is no longer interested in time.
......
......
"Driving~~"
The wind is strong, and the young soldiers are wearing dark armor, and it is the time of vitality.
Qi San and several veterans around him all exclaimed, "It's General Yulin Zhonglang......
Yulin, a young man with great ambitions. Good at bows and arrows, 100 shots, can shoot the eyes of peacocks from hundreds of steps.
When he saw the girl dancing in the snow, he immediately fell in love with the woman like a snow elf. The style in the army is rough, if you like it, then grab it back.
Riding across, bending down, he caught the girl in the red dress on the horse with one hand. Far away. Only the dust from the horses' hooves was still flying.
The female university is not staying. Always choose a good family, Zhou Sheng saw that the kid just now was good, young and energetic.
He used to think that Wang Jian was good, but the two broke up.
......
......
In the ice and snow, a horse galloped.
The young man's face was buried in the girl's neck, sniffing the seductive fragrance. Immediately afterward, he suffered a pain in his lumbar spine and fell off his horse. I only felt weak and weak, so I found someone else.
The girl jumped up in front of the young man, stomped the young man's face with her little boots, and stepped into the hard dirt.
"Dare to bully your aunt and grandmother, little rabbit cub, just grab people before their hair grows......"
Scolding while stepping on it.
After a while, Xu was tired of stepping on it. Take a break against a snow-covered tree.
A red, swollen head was pulled out of the mud like a turnip, and the splash of dirt was stained red. The young man's nose was bleeding and the bridge of his nose was crushed. But he couldn't help but say nothing, and smiled stupidly.
Look at this stupid look of him. The maiden also smiled, like a lily.
......
There is a golden eagle hovering in the sky, and its body shuttles between the clouds. Listening to the cry of the golden eagle, the girl didn't know what to remember.
"Hey, boy, if you can shoot the golden eagle down, my sister will hurt you well......"
"What's so hard about that! It's really hard!!"
The golden eagle is in the clouds, how can the arrows of mortals shoot them? However, Yulin was not reconciled, took out the bow and arrow from the horse, tore off the armor, wiped the blood and mud on his face with his sleeve, aimed it at the sky, and pulled the bow into a full moon.
The bow of the full moon still can't enter the realm that mortals can't reach.
When the arrow departs, it is still far from the clouds, and it loses the strength to move forward. The girl's eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, and with a slight movement of her fingers, the arrow took a big tonic, rubbed up, and hit the two wings of the golden eagle.
......
The golden eagle fell in a circle, trembling on the icy ground.
"I Shot ~~"
Yulin smiled happily, revealing two gaps in his missing front teeth, which had been buried in the pit. Anyone who can laugh out loud when they have two front teeth stepped on is either an idiot or a fool.
Well~~
These two words mean something about the same.
Of course, this is also object-specific. Being stepped on by a beautiful girl is a good thing, and being beaten by a man with five big and three thick is not a good thing.
......
"Well, that?"
He squirmed, looked at the girl, and seemed to say that you have to fulfill your promise.
The girl's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement, like a tiger looking at a rabbit, this kind of look made Yulin very unnatural, as if something terrible was about to happen.
It didn't take long for him to know what that feeling was.
The girl kneaded her pink fist and approached step by step, and then, the mournful shouts of the young man sounded on the ice field, and it lasted for a long time.
......
......
There were not many bones in Yulin's body, and it was only after the end that he realized that the louder he screamed, the more comfortable the devil with a beautiful face in front of him would be, and the lighter his hand would be. If you insist on pretending to be manly, it will only make your aunt very unhappy, and then his fate will be miserable......
When I opened my eyes, my head was dizzy, and the crimson blue sky was as clean as a wash.
A pretty face was only three inches away from his cheek, and he could almost feel the fragrant breath from Xiao Qiong's nose, warm.
The next moment, he closed his eyes, maybe another fat beating.
The girl's two little hands kneaded her dirty face, and she seemed to be pitiful, and she was too ruthless. Leng snorted and rode away on the young man's horse......
......
......
Yancheng, the Chengdu of Yan Kingdom.
Yulin family, Yulin took the girl to his home. There are also the parents of the young girl.
The richly dressed woman stepped out of the backyard and examined her daughter-in-law with sharp eyes. It's okay, it's good, it's well-behaved. It's just that the country girl doesn't know the rules, and she doesn't know how to salute when she sees her.
Then he looked at the white-haired middle-aged man whose clothes had been washed with disgust, and the middle-aged woman who had fallen away. The salute is simple, but it is neatly organized. There is also a jujube red horse in the garden, and it eats a lot of rare flowers.
The woman exploded her lungs in anger, where did the wild horse come from, and she didn't fight to get out?
Yulin smiled, but looking at his appearance, he was obviously a little afraid of his mother. After all, the big family is strictly controlled. There are not many ordinary people's feelings.
"Mother. It's stone. And her parents, Uncle Zhou, Aunt Fei......"
The woman frowned deeply and sneered slightly, "What strange name? Stone? This name is not good, it needs to be." Also, my Yulin family is a hereditary family, and my children and grandchildren must be the right family to marry a wife. This girl looks okay, but there are some problems with her background. Barely be a concubine......"
Zhou Sheng drank tea and ignored these things. When he heard the woman's words, he mourned for her in his heart. He knows exactly what the temperament of his child is, and his cultivation in those years was not in vain, although his heart is not ruthless, but how can a cultivator talk well.
Even his temperament, although he has been cultivated a lot over the years. But when I encounter a lot of things, I still can't help but lose my temper. As soon as he loses his temper, a city and a kingdom may perish. This means that the greater the amount of force, the greater the damage caused.
Really. The girl roared, pinched her waist and began to scold.
"Slut. Even if the old lady takes a fancy to this little white face of your family, what kind of green onion are you, you dare to point fingers at me, and you still want the old lady to change her name?
"Too ...... , it's a big rebellion, it's insulting to women's morality, Yulin, drive this shrew out of the city for me......"
"Mother, dissipate your anger, the stone has a good temper, just don't mess with her, otherwise it will be easy to explode......"
Thinking that she was beaten countless times by the girl, her heart trembled, and it seemed that the next moment, this tigress would explode and beat their mother and son directly.
......
......
"Let's go~~"
After taking a look, Zhou Sheng packed his luggage and left with a horse, a donkey and his wife. Over the years, he has passed on everything he has learned and understood in his life to his daughter, and it depends on her own how much she can understand.
He learned a lot in his life, and it was not until he was at his most advanced that he understood the truth of specialization. It's just too late, and you can't forget what you've learned.
Walk out of the gate and walk on the crowded streets.
"I really just left the child like this, I can't bear to ......"
"There is no way to be reluctant, she always has her own life, and she can't always be by our side. Besides, I'm going to stay here for a while, and I'm going to see a grandson before I go. In my life, I have had many children, either existing or non-existent, but I have not yet had a grandchild......"
I found a yard and there was an old man chopping wood in the yard.
"Old man, borrow it for a few years~~"
There were a lot of empty houses in the yard, so I found one at random, cleaned up the dust, and moved in.
The old man was deaf and dumb and blind. You can only live in your own dark world. You can't see, you can't listen, you can't communicate with the outside world. What a poor old man. I will never know the beauty of the world.
But on the other hand, the independent world realm in his heart is a holy place that has not been defiled by the slightest red dust, and there is a beautiful ......
Whatever the reason, the old man was there chopping wood all day.
The axe had been used for I don't know how many years, it had curled its blade, and the handle had cracked.
It takes many times to chop a piece of firewood by chopping along the texture of the firewood, and then groping around on the neat pile of firewood placed next to it.
It seems that there will never be a shortage of firewood, and there will always be so much firewood to be cut that it will not decrease.
The firewood was covered with snow, and the old man also took the time to pull out the dry firewood at the bottom and light a fire in the yard. Although he couldn't see the flames, he could always feel the warmth of the flames.
......
......
Zhou Sheng's daily work is to sit in front of the window and paint, and there is a stove next to the yard, so he can live and cook.
Their family still has some savings, and after opening a noodle restaurant for so many years, they can always save some money to support their family.
Fei Lan went to the market to buy fish, ducks and vegetables, and bought some forage soybeans by the way. A horse and a donkey are the treasures of the family, and they are good things to pull carts or kill and eat meat.
It's just that the husband is reluctant to sell it.
It's not a way to raise it like this, and the forage money consumed makes her feel distressed.
"Brother Sheng, do you want to bring a bowl of rice to the old blind man, he blames the poor ...... alone"
"Well, go for it......"
Fei Lan took the tail of the fish from the plate and put it in the bowl full of rice, and the fattest fish belly was sandwiched to her husband, and the head of the fish was given to herself.
She had just left the house and hurried back.
"This old blind man can't eat fish, and if he gets stuck, he will have to die. Let's give him those greens......"
......
The bowl was put down on the wooden pier next to him, and as if he sensed that someone was approaching, he tightened the axe with both hands, and a faint green tendon appeared on the palm of his old hand.
If you look closely, you will find that the old man's breathing is obviously much heavier.
Since the arrival of Zhou Sheng and his wife, he has never put down the rotten axe in his hand.
Smelling the sound of food, he couldn't speak, but took a wooden stick and wrote two big characters crookedly on the snow-covered ground: Xie Lu Xie.
"You're welcome~~"
Emerald replied. But then he smiled, and the old blind man was also ear-blind, and he could not hear, and he spoke in vain.
Can't speak, can't hear, can't see things, there should be no worse person in the world than him.
I don't know how he survived to this day.
......
Slowly, Fei Lan also understood the old man's life and rest.
When you are thirsty, put the ice and snow on the fire and boil it, and drink some plain water. When you are hungry, throw some dried buns into hot water, soak them and eat them.
......
......
Zhou Sheng looked at the paintings under his pen, becoming more and more expressive, and the ink in them seemed to come to life, dancing on the paper......
Brilliant strokes, but that's it!
A middle-aged man with two servants walked down a small alley towards the courtyard. The middle-aged man was wearing a pale yellow robe with a black jade wrench on his fingers. His thin clothes didn't seem to feel cold in the wind and snow.
There was also a girl next to the middle-aged man, who was delicate and cute, but there was a cunning flash in her eyes. Looking at this, it should be his daughter.
Although the servants behind him were hunched on their backs, they looked at the steps they walked, and one step was not bad.
As soon as he walked to the courtyard gate, the middle-aged man was about to reach out and knock on the door, when a deep cough came from the courtyard.
The old man covered his mouth with his hands and coughed, out of breath, as if he was about to cough out his lungs.
His vocal cords were able to speak at this moment. Then the eyes also had a look, the earlobes moved, and voices could be heard. The muscles that had been tense for months also became tighter...... (To be continued......)
