Volume 1: The Fisherman's Husband Chapter 34: The Old Man Visits
The fish liver and fish skin of the five sharks are not light, especially the white shark's skin is more than 200 catties, but fortunately, the three teenagers are not weak in internal skills, but even when they walked to the entrance of the village, the three of them were tired and sweating.
Fortunately, there were more than a dozen children squatting there playing in the sand at the entrance of the village, and when they saw Lu Yi, they immediately lost the shells and stones in their hands, and they rushed over with cheers.
Most of the names of the children in the village are related to various animals in the sea, so most of the nicknames are fish, shrimp and crabs.
The old village chief's two grandsons, one is called Little Crab and the other is called Little Octopus, who is also in his early tens, and has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and he has the appearance of taking over the mantle of their trident.
The little crab took two fish livers from Lu Yi's hand, and beckoned his friends to come over to help, and after a while, each person was divided into a little, Lu Yi and they were like generals returning from victory, shaking their hands and swaggering into the village.
Usually, adults may not be able to catch these children when they do something, and even if they are caught, they are estimated to be pouting, but in front of Lu Yi and them, they are like hard-working old scalpers.
Children are not really lazy by nature.
Lu Yi looked at the little crab beside him and asked with a smile:
"Have you been peeking at Sister Seaweed's bath lately?"
Seaweed is 14 years old this year, only one year younger than Lu Yi, and looks like a ...... Born a little dark.
But she is the head of a group of girls in the village, usually with the little crab and their gang of boys fight, since Lu Yu taught the children to learn literacy, the girl remembered the sentence that women do not let the eyebrows, every day with a group of girls is also full of the village jumping up and down, so that some adults are worried, the boys are naughty and mischievous, this is good, the village is harmonious with yin and yang, and a group of girls can also make the village unpeaceful.
Is this the first batch of "female men?"
Lu Xiaojia on the side of the road was accustomed to it, and it was not strange, but Sun Yuan'er secretly reached out and pinched him, and Xiao Ke'er blushed and scolded a group of obscene billets.
The little crab looked like a hanger, and pouted disapplauded:
"What is there to look at her, her body is so black, and there is a small one here, no looking!"
After speaking, he straightened his chest, signaled with his eyes, and then turned his head to look at Yuan'er, and continued with a smile:
"It's still Sister Sun's big and round!
After speaking, he opened his legs and ran away.
Sun Yuan'er's face was flushed by the words of the little crab, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into!
Lu Yi pointed to the little crab and scolded:
"Little bastard, you'd better not let me hold it today, otherwise I won't be called Lu Yi if my ass doesn't bloom!"
The little crab grimaced from afar, and there was a look of fear on his face.
The little octopus leaned over awkwardly, secretly glanced at Sun Yuan'er's towering breasts, and then said with a smile:
"Brother Lu Yi, the girl in the seaweed really doesn't have much to look at, at most it's only a steamed bun!
As soon as Lu was about to kick, the little bastard hurriedly jumped and dodged.
Lu Yiwen looked at the little crab in the distance and said:
"Why are these little bunnies so nasty, who taught them?
Lu Xiaojia said with a calm face:
"You didn't teach, you all used your own demonstration! Hmph, what kind of thing didn't you learn from the back of your ass!"
Lu Yi and the three of them smiled wryly, there was nothing to refute what they said.
A large group of children came to the courtyard of the Lu family like a moon, Lu Yu heard the noisy frolicking outside, opened the courtyard door and walked out, and in an instant the children all stopped playing and quieted down.
Everyone stood respectfully, bowed, and shouted in unison:
"Hello Mr. Lu!"
If there is a real king above the children of Lujia Village, it must be Lu Yu, because she not only taught them to read and practice martial arts, but also taught them a lot of rules and etiquette, which may not be of great use for the time being, who can say clearly in the future?
Lu Yu smiled kindly, signaling everyone not to be restrained, since Mr. Lu said not to be restrained, then there is really no need to continue to hold it, so the crowd began to be lively again, but everyone was obviously much more restrained.
Seeing several large wooden basins full of fish liver and fish skin, Lu Yu asked a few children to go home and ask their parents to come and help clean up, these things must be disposed of as soon as possible, although it is winter, it will not become fresh after a long time.
It didn't take long for Seaweed and a group of girls to take the lead in running over to help, and now the yard was even more lively, but because it was Lu Yu's house, it was okay to stare at each other.
The seaweed was indeed quite dark, and the fourteen-year-old girl had already pulled it open, and her figure was already a little bigger, but her hair was pulled up high, and she looked neat and sharp, and with a little sharp eyes, the average hairy young man would really be a little frightened.
Lu Yi squinted his eyes and glanced at the key parts a few times, and after a few smacks, he was chased and beaten by her for a long time......
Sun Yuan'er's master and servant and the little crabs jumped on the side and clapped their hands.
In the end, it was Lu Yu's cough that quieted everyone down.
Aunt Jiu'er came over one after another to help several adults, and the arrangements were made, Lu Yu just stood up, and saw two old people walking in at the courtyard gate, and they stood on the spot in an instant, stunned, and their tears were like beads with broken threads that kept falling, and Nangong Buhao, who came in, also had red eyes, opened his mouth, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
The little crab was the first to be surprised to find that Mr. Lu was crying, looked at the gate of the yard, snorted in surprise, and asked loudly:
"Who are you?!"
Hearing the sound of the little crab, all the children and adults in the yard turned their heads to look.
Lu Yiwen opened his mouth and exclaimed in the same exclamation:
"Lao Hong?!"
Hong Kaitai laughed and said:
"Unexpectedly, the three stinky boys of the Lu family said that they would come to your village to play, so this is not coming!"
Lu Yi also noticed the strangeness of his mother behind him, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her, and looked at another elegant-looking tall old man beside Lao Hong with suspicious eyes.
Lu Yu reacted, wiped away his tears, pulled Lu Yi to the two and said:
"Kneel!
Lu Yi hurriedly knelt down, and instantly reacted in his heart, this person should be Nangong Miao, the uncle who helped his mother.
Nangong Buhao stretched out his hand to help Lu Yi, looked up and down carefully, and smiled with relief:
"Good boy, good boy, get up. ”
Lu clasped his fists together and said respectfully:
"Lu Yi has seen my uncle, thank you for your help to my mother back then. ”
Nangong Buhao shook his head, stared at Lu Yu's face for a while, and asked with regret in his words:
"Rain girl, what's going on with your face?"
Lu Yu smiled calmly and said:
"Brother, my name is Lu Yu now, the previous things and Nangong Yu have long been forgotten with that face, go to the house and sit down. ”
Sun Yuan'er had been standing beside Lu Yi and didn't speak, and when she heard this, she hurriedly went into the house with Xiao Shell to clean up first, and was busy boiling water to make tea.
Hong Kaitai grabbed Lu Yi, who wanted to follow into the house, and said with a smile:
"Lu Yi, come and tell me what is wonderful about this shark liver, so that your mother and uncle can have a good chat with the two siblings who have been reunited after a long absence, they should have a lot to say. ”
Lu Yi understood, nodded, and beckoned the rest of the group of children to continue to clean up the things in the yard.
After a while, Xiao Yu'er and Fifth Uncle Lu, who heard the news, greeted Hong Kaitai politely and told each other about what happened after the separation.
How do you eat shark liver? You have to fry it slowly over low heat.
This is Lu Yi's unique skill, and it took many studies to sum it up.
Hong Kaitai sat on the edge of the fire like a child again, watching Lu Yiyi skillfully flip a piece of shark liver on the thin stone slab, that is, the saliva did not flow out, otherwise if some of his martial arts celebrities of the same generation on the rivers and lakes saw it, his eyes would fall to the ground!
While watching, he sighed that it was a pity that he didn't become a chef, wasting such a good talent.
There are a lot of people in the yard, and the children are naturally reluctant to go, and some big girls and little daughters-in-law have come over one after another.
The thin slate is drizzled with some melted lard, on which the thin shark liver is sizzling, fried until it is seven or eight ripe, and then sprinkled with some of the condiment sauce that has been mixed with the road and you can feast on it.
The entrance has a hint of spicy, smooth and delicate, and when you bite it gently, you will instantly fill your mouth with a juice with the unique aroma of shark liver.
"It's so delicious! Lu Yi, I have to bow to you this time! Please go and give me some guidance in the future! It's a pity not to let others know about such a good thing!"
Hong Kaitai had already eaten seven pieces, and said with a look of unfinished business.
Lu Yiwen looked at him with a smile, scratched his face and smiled:
"I said Lao Hong, you're really not polite at all, how much have you eaten by yourself?"
Hong Kaitai said seriously:
"Today I am a guest in the village!"
A group of children booed at the same time.
Hong Kaitai has an easy-going personality, and it didn't take much time to mingle with the children in the village.
Lu Yi was so busy that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't stop since he started frying shark liver in the afternoon, and he also joked when he heard the words:
"Don't bother to bow down, I won't be fooled by that, after eating, tell the children in our village a good story about the outside, they all love to listen!"
When the children heard the story, they all cheered.
Sun Yuan'er also ate three pieces of shark liver, which was indeed delicious, but she was a little distressed when she saw the busy Lu Yi, but seeing his happy appearance, it was not good to say anything.
Hong Kaitai looked at Sun Yuan'er and quipped:
"You're a good girl, that stupid boy is blessed!
At this moment, Lu Yu and Nangong Bu Miao walked out of the house.
Lu Yi turned around and saw his mother's red and swollen eyes, and his heart was faintly painful, but it seemed that the depression in his eyes for many years had disappeared, and he was happy for her, just like his mother's ruined face, he never asked, but it didn't mean that he didn't care about it.
The two came to Uncle Lu and Xiao Yu'er, Nangong Bumiao leaned over and saluted solemnly, so frightened that the two hurriedly stood up from the stool, Nangong Bumiao stretched out his hand to support the two and let them sit down and said gratefully:
"Nangong is not good, thank you for the life-saving grace and the grace of taking in the sister!
After speaking, he pulled Lu Yu and beckoned Lu Yiye to come over, Sun Yuan'er hurriedly took Xiao Ke'er to follow behind Lu Yi'er, and seriously knelt on the ground and kowtowed three heads to the two.
Then Nangong looked around at the villagers around him, and said in a deep voice:
"Please also invite all the uncles and relatives in the village to be worshiped by our brothers, sisters and children again!"
Uncle Lu Wu hurriedly dragged a few people on the ground up, and some other women and aunts who knew what happened back then still wiped their tears sadly, more than ten years have passed, and many things were originally thought to have been forgotten, and it seemed like it was yesterday when they were mentioned.
"Mr. Nangong doesn't have to be so polite, Mr. Lu has been a member of his own family in the village for so many years, and she teaches children to read and write, practice martial arts, and help everyone as much as she can, we are all grateful. ”
At this moment, the little crab asked with a hint of crying:
"Mr. Nangong, are you going to take Aunt Yu and Lu Yi's brothers away, are you never coming back?"
After saying that, tears flowed.
Immediately afterwards, the other children also looked at Lu Yu with red eyes, and Lu Yiwen and Lu Xiaobo stood up directly, not saying a word.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, saw the children's expectant eyes, and quickly wiped his eyes with emotion, and said with a smile:
"What are you thinking about? If Aunt Yu doesn't leave, she will never leave you again in this life!"
The child's sorrow came and went faster, and when he heard that Mr. Lu didn't go, the first brother of the road naturally wouldn't go, so he instantly burst into tears and laughed, and began to wait to eat shark liver.
Hong Kaitai beckoned Nangong to come and sit down, and said with a happy smile:
"I said that it would be worth the trip to accompany you this time, haha, Lu Yi, quickly bake a slice for your uncle!"
When it was completely dark, the fish livers of the five sharks were eaten cleanly, and the shark skin was also disposed of, and everyone got up and said goodbye.
Lu Yu's mother and son stood at the gate of the courtyard and waved goodbye to everyone, and then returned to the hall and everyone sat on the fire ridge to bake the fire and chat, Nangong was not good at telling Lu Yu what happened in Jiangnan Province after he went into exile overseas in the afternoon, so the topic was more about Lu Yu and some trivial things about life in Lujia Village.
"Seeing Yu girl's current life, I am also relieved, in fact, the plain stability is not a blessing. ”
Nangong Bumiao sighed and said with emotion.
Hong Kaitai nodded thoughtfully.
"Lu Yi, have you thought about going out and having a look?"
Nangong Bu Miao suddenly asked.
Lu Yi's hand holding the tongs stiffened slightly, looked up at Nangong Bad, and only replied after a little thought:
"I thought about it! I really want to go to the dream house and ask that man why! And we owe the Yun family an explanation. ”
Lu Yu's face turned slightly pale, and he shook his head a little bitterly, and Sun Yuan'er hurriedly held her hand and leaned on her.
Nangong stared at Lu Yi's eyes, and after a while, he smiled and said with satisfaction:
"Good boy. Uncle didn't misread you. ”
Hong Kaitai stretched his waist and said with a smile:
It can be seen that Lu Yi has been cultivating Sumeru since he was a child, and his cultivation is good, but he can't splash a wave when he throws it into the rivers and lakes. ”
Nangong glanced at him and said:
"Who wouldn't say cool words, what can you do? Huh? Teach him a few tricks?"
Hong Kaitai clapped his hands and said:
"Okay, good, I ate the delicious food he made in vain, and I was worried that there was no way to repay the favor, and I didn't like the old man for being too old to worship him!"
Nangong glared at him and said angrily:
"I'm his uncle, and you're swearing to him?"
Hong Kaitai scratched his beard in embarrassment.
"I didn't think of it at that time!"
Lu Yi suddenly took out the booklet that Lu Fei gave him from his arms and asked the two of them to help take a look.
Hong Kaitai took it disappreciatively, stood up in surprise after a glance, and asked incoherently:
"Where did you get that?"
Lu Yi saw Hong Kaitai's surprised expression, and thought that there was a play, during this time, he looked left and right, looked up and down, because it was a fragment, he really didn't see any doorway, and the record in it was obscure, so he hurriedly asked:
"Senior Hong recognizes this unphased Brahma decision?"
Nangong didn't care much about it, sometimes it was too common for this friend around him to be surprised, and at this time, when he heard Lu Yi say the words of the unphased Brahma decision, he also stood up and turned his head over.
Lu Yi carefully told everyone about meeting Lu Fei in Fubo Town that night.
Hong Kaitai smiled bitterly, spread his hands, looked at Nangong and said:
"Who would have thought that the Phaseless Brahma Decision that caused the bloody storm in the rivers and lakes more than thirty years ago would finally fall on such a notorious snitch as the Land Flying Eagle?"
Nangong Buhao took the booklet, looked through it cursoryly, nodded and said:
"It should be the real book, this matter has always been so providential, when Lu Fei stole this secret book, it is estimated that the rivers and lakes would have been calm and calm, otherwise he would not have given it to Lu Yi so casually. ”
Lu Yi asked curiously:
"Is this Phaseless Brahma very powerful?"
Nangong handed the booklet back to Lu Yi casually, and said with a smile:
"The more powerful the martial arts, the more they need to fall into the hands of people with good conduct, otherwise it can only be a disaster for the sake of the rivers and lakes, and eventually harm others and oneself, and only create murder. ”
Hong Kaitai nodded, agreed, looked at Lu Yi's curious look, and smiled thoughtfully:
"Everything in the world has a cause and effect, a drink and a peck have their own certainty, you kid thinks that Lu Fei is just for money, and he doesn't hurt people, and he is not extremely vicious, and he misses your forgiveness and forgiveness, and gave him a legendary secret book that he doesn't know the value of, so you kid is still blessed. ”
Nangong pouted:
"I hate Buddhism the most, what karma, I think it's best to have a clear conscience. ”
Sun Yuan'er asked curiously:
"Two uncles, do you have a lot of stories about this secret?"
Seeing Lu Yudu's curious look, Nangong handed Hong Kaitai a cup of tea.
"I'm not thirsty. ”
"Moisten your throat first, the children want to hear it, and you can tell everyone the story of this secret!"
Hong Kaitai glared at Nangong Bumiao and sighed:
"If you're careless in making friends, that's me!"
After the joke, Hong Kaitai really told the story of the disputes in the rivers and lakes caused by this unphased Brahma decision more than 30 years ago.
