Chapter 101: Leisure
The blazing sun hung diagonally in the air, releasing an infinite amount of light and heat, and although it was only morning, it was still incredibly hot in the air. Mo Chen walked on the road, and on both sides of the road were endless wheat fields. A gust of wind blew, and the green wheat fields began to sway like waves.
It's almost May, and the weather is starting to get hotter and hotter. At this time, it was rare for a wind to blow and blow on Mo Chen's body, taking away the feeling of heat that Mo Chen was rushing to rise on a hot day, and making Mo Chen feel refreshed.
Walking along the road, you pass through villages. Near noon, Mo Chen couldn't stand the increasingly hot weather, and stopped in a village he passed by on the road. I'm going to find a place to rest and wait until the weather cools down before I'm on my way.
Anyway, at this time, Mo Chen was not far from Wei County, where Zhang Shoucheng's elders lived, and he could arrive within today no matter what, so Mo Chen was not in a hurry.
This was an ordinary village, no different from the other villages that Mo Chen had passed through along the way.
A crooked, squeezed by houses of varying widths and narrows, runs through the village, and houses are scattered on both sides of the road. In the middle of a group of houses next to each other, there must be a large open space. This open space is the village grain field, and when the wheat is ripe, the households near the grain field will threh the harvested wheat on the grain field and dry it in the sun.
At a glance, there were seven or eight grain farms in this village, showing that this was not a small village.
Mo Chen found a home at the entrance of the village, and after explaining his intention and offering enough thanks, he was able to be welcomed into the house by the owner.
In addition to the main house, there are two side rooms in this house. Mo Chen was ushered into the living room of the main house and was warmly received by the owner.
At this time, Mo Chen was sitting at the only table in the middle of the living room, the tea bowl of the table was brewing crude tea leaves, and the young master was sitting next to Mo Chen to greet Mo Chen as a guest.
This is an ordinary peasant with dark skin and a rough appearance, who looks a little older than his actual age. Wearing a sleeveless short robe, some rags were wrapped around both of his bare arms, and the faint smell of herbs came from him.
Mo Chen had also learned the art of medicine in another world, and judging from Mo Chen's experience in this world, the differences between the herbs of the two worlds were not very different in terms of appearance, smell, and efficacy. Therefore, Mo Chen could tell by the smell that the herbs on the arms of the person opposite were used to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, and his two arms should have bruises.
Even if Mo Chen has the ability of spiritual vision, he can see a person's inside and outside with a sweep of spiritual vision. But Mo Chen usually wouldn't use such an ability unless it was necessary.
Although he was injured, there was no discomfort in the slightest movement of this man's two arms. Mo Chen could see that he was not pretending to be calm, but he really didn't care about such an injury at all. This is the only point, but it also seems that this person is very free.
The owner of the house chatted with Mo Chen, a guest, for a while, and Mo Chen knew the name of the owner of the house, Hong Yong, and also learned some basic information about this family. As for the injury on his arm, Hong Yong didn't say anything, and Mo Chen didn't ask.
Not long after, the two old men who had been outside to take care of Saye's young grandson returned.
Seeing a stranger in the house, he looked only four or five years old, white and tender, and there were some baby fat children on his face, and he hid behind his grandparents with some fear.
Hong Yong, who has been focusing on his son since he entered the door, smiled when he saw this and joked:
"Sheep Dan, I usually see that you are not afraid of heaven and earth, why are you so timid at this time. Come here, come to your son. ”
After hesitating, the child still ran to his father's side, and was grabbed by Hong Yong on both sides of his body and held in his arms.
"Brother Mo, this is my son's sheep egg, and his name is Hong Yuan. We rural people pay attention to a cheap name to make a living, don't be surprised when you hear it. ”
After introducing his baby son to Mo Chen, Hong Yong said to the two old men again:
"Dad, mother, you go to the back kitchen to see how Cuifen's rice is cooking, and by the way, help him clean up. When a guest came to the house, I asked him to cook a few more dishes, and seeing that it was almost noon, she cleaned up alone, afraid that she would miss lunch time. ”
"Brother Mo, the hospitality is not good, you are more responsible!"
Seeing the two elders leaving, Hong Yong, who was holding his son, turned his head and smiled at Mo Chen.
"Where's the matter. Ling Gongzi ...... Your son is very lovely. If I had such a big fat boy, I would definitely be like Brother Hong, holding him in his arms and reluctant to let go. ”
Hearing Mo Chen praise his son, Hong Yongle's eyes lit up, and he said proudly:
"Don't look at this kid cowering now, he's usually clever. With such a big point, you can catch shrimp and birds by yourself. The small canal behind the village, as well as the woods next to it, are usually plagued by him. And this kid has been tough since he was a child, and he has never lost a fight with his peers, and when he grows up, I sent him to the boxing club to learn boxing, and he must be a good material for practicing boxing. By the time he learns boxing, he will definitely be much better than me. ”
Hong Yong's eyebrows fluttered, and he said vigorously, patted the child Hong Yuan's back hard, and said to him:
"Come, call Brother Mo. ”
Regardless of the fact that he was screaming at Mo Chen, he asked his son to call Brother Mo Chen when he opened his mouth. Although it is mainly because Mo Chen is not very old, he is also handsome, and he makes his son Uncle Mo Chen, Hong Yong feels more disobedient. But it can also be seen that Hong Yong's personality is bold and doesn't care so much.
After the child called Brother Mo crisply, Hong Yong said to his son again:
"Come, give your brother Mo a turnover, and let him see what you're capable of. ”
Mo Chen looked at the child speechlessly, with a reluctant expression, but he still turned his head and showed Mo Chen. Then Hong Yong laughed, as if his son had done something amazing.
Fortunately, before Hong Yong continued to toss, his daughter-in-law came out with dishes and chopsticks, ready to beckon everyone to eat, which saved the tired child.
After lunch, the two old men went back to the house to rest, Hong Yong's daughter-in-law also returned to the kitchen to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Hong Yong still took out the tea, poured it for Mo Chen, and even brought out a plate of unknown wild fruits and put it on the table for Mo Chen to eat.
Seeing Hong Yuan, who was looking at the plate of wild fruits on the table with a blank face, Mo Chen smiled, grabbed a handful and handed it to him.
The child took it with a happy face, and called Brother Mo sweetly, this time it was a lot more sincere. And Mo Chen obviously felt that the child was a lot closer to him.
In this way, Mo Chen and Hong Yuan drank tea and chatted to pass the time, and Hong Yuan next to him circled around the two from time to time.
In the blink of an eye, the fiercest sun at noon passed. Just as Mo Chen was about to say goodbye to Hong Yong, there was a commotion outside.
