"Brother doesn't need to be polite, you can survive, my husband and I are very happy. The young woman smiled.

"It's just warm, and the cold is still too heavy, so let's talk in the house. The middle-aged man said this and helped Lu Xin to return home.

in the house.

The stove was blazing, and the young woman kept shuttling between the wing room and the stove, and the dishes were placed on the square table by her, although they were all simple vegetarian dishes, but under the exquisite craftsmanship of the young woman, they also looked extremely exquisite.

The middle-aged man got a roast chicken out of nowhere, and when he put the roast chicken in the center of the table, Xiao Han'er's eyes showed a look of longing, and he licked his lips unconsciously, obviously this child hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

"Brother Lu, this is my homemade liquor, although it is not a good wine, but you have just recovered from a serious illness, and drinking two glasses can speed up the removal of the cold remaining in your body. Xiao Shan walked towards Lu Xin with a jar of wine, and his warm voice also sounded.

The dishes and chopsticks were neatly placed, and a family of three sat opposite to Lu Xin, and when Xiao Shan poured the wine into the bowl, the strong aroma of wine permeated the air.

"Brother Lu, I toast you. Xiao Shan raised his wine glass, touched Lu Xin's wine bowl, and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, his cheeks were slightly rosy.

When the liquor was in the mouth, Lu Xin drank it, which also made Xiao Shan laugh loudly: "Brother Lu seems to be thin, but my brother, I think your amount of alcohol is extraordinary." ”

"The literati are good at wine, which has been passed down from ancient times, which makes Brother Xiao smile. Lu Xin said warmly.

The more wine was drunk, the atmosphere gradually changed from unfamiliar to warm, and the conversation between the two gradually opened, and from the conversation with Xiao Shan, Lu Xin learned that Xiao Shan was a hunter, and as long as the weather was fine, he would go out of Luo Tiancheng to go to the outside mountains to hunt some prey and pick some mountain goods, so as to maintain the livelihood of a family of three.

It's just that the world has changed, there are many monsters in the mountains and forests, and Xiaoshan doesn't dare to go deeper, so he can only wander around the periphery of the mountains and forests, and his life is a little harder.

Xiao Shan's wife, named Li Ruoxue, takes on some weaving work every day, adds some household money to the family, and teaches Xiao Han'er to read and write every day, and she has been like this for so many years.

An ordinary and simple family, all of which are trivial matters for mortals, Lu Xin tasted the dishes on the table from time to time, listened to Xiao Shan's words quietly, and communicated with him from time to time, but it also made Lu Xin and this family seem extremely harmonious.

Time was passing, but Lu Xin discovered a strange thing, the family of three in front of him was just eating vegetarian food on the table, but the fatty roast chicken did not move, which also made Lu Xin thoughtful, and the confusion in his eyes was even stronger.

"Han'er, this chicken leg is for you to eat. ”

Lu Xin's mind turned, and he picked off a chicken leg with his own hands, and put it in the child's bowl.

The aroma of the roast chicken made the child swallow saliva continuously, and there was a faint look of longing in his eyes, but when the child saw his parents shaking his head vaguely, the longing in his eyes faded instantly.

"Big brother, Han'er doesn't like to eat chicken legs, big brother, you eat it. The child took out the chicken thighs in the bowl and quickly put them in Lu Xin's bowl, but the disappointment in his eyes completely fell into Lu Xin's eyes.

"Brother Lu, our family usually eats vegetarian food, and there is no oil in this belly, but I am afraid that after eating, we will have to run to the thatched house this night. Xiao Shan half-jokingly.

Lu Xin was silent, just picked up the chicken leg again and put it in the child's bowl, looked at the child's eyes, and said with a warm meaning: "Brother Xiao's heart is Lu Mou's heart, but Han'er is growing her body, and it doesn't hurt to eat some meat." ”

Lu Xin's voice was categorical, which also made the couple smile helplessly, and then nodded vaguely to the child, which also made Xiao Han'er look happy, directly took the meat in the bowl, and walked out of the house, and his immature voice sounded even more.

"Han'er has eaten, I want to go back to the room to study, and the eldest brother and father will use it slowly. ”

Such a scene made Lu Xin smile, Xiao Shan raised his glass again, and the couple also talked with Lu Xin again, but under the extremely strong request of the husband and wife, they said that Lu Xin had just recovered from a serious illness and should eat more meat, and the whole roast chicken was also eaten by Lu Xin helplessly.

The night was like water, the cold wind was howling outside, Xiao Shan was drunk, and the couple also returned to the side room, leaving Lu Xin alone on the bed, constantly feeling the strange mood brought to him by this family.

The night was dark, everything was quiet, Lu Xin slept like a mortal, but a strange sound suddenly came from the outside world, although the sound was not loud, but it fell into Lu Xin's ears very well.

Lu Xin opened his eyes and stepped off the bed, when he pushed open the door, the scene that greeted him made him stunned and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time!

Next to the stove, Xiao Han'er cried 'woo', and there were broken porcelain bowls spilled on the ground, and the children's little hands were scratched by the fragments of the porcelain bowls, and a lot of blood was overflowed, which made people tremble at a glance.

The child's cry was not due to an injury to his palm, but he looked at the dusty chicken leg on the ground, and his voice choked to the extreme.

The bleeding palm picked up the chicken legs, and he kept wiping the dust on the chicken legs with his sleeves, but the more the child wiped them, the more dirty the chicken legs became, which also made the child sit paralyzed on the ground, and an uncontrollable cry sounded from his mouth.

At this time!

Lu Xin's mind froze, he strolled to Xiao Han'er's side, looked at the child with solemn eyes and said, "Han'er, don't cry." ”

Lu Xin's appearance made Xiao Han'er bite his lips, he seemed to have found someone to confide in, and his choked voice sounded in Lu Xin's ears.

"Cold... Han'er just wants to leave the chicken leg for her mother... Mother... Mother, she is frail and sickly... It's been a long time since I've eaten meat...... The child's voice was so choked that he couldn't stop crying.

Time seemed to stand still, space seemed to be frozen, Lu Xin stood still, he stared at the chicken leg in the child's hand, the whole person became silent, and the sound of exhalation between his mouth and nose became extremely heavy at this moment.

The sadness that he had never felt before rose in Lu Xin's confidence, and the breeding of this emotion made Lu Xin feel nothing, he just stared at the child in front of him blankly, and his frozen heart was greatly touched, this feeling made him unable to speak, let alone express.

Brother Lu smiled. ”

The weak female voice sounded behind Lu Xin, and at some point, the child's mother appeared here, she took gauze, carefully bandaged the wound on the child's palm, and looked at the child's eyes, which showed the unique love and brilliance of motherhood.

"Mother... I'm sorry ....... The child clutched the chicken leg in his hand, and sobbing kept coming from his mouth.

"Han'er's intentions, my mother naturally knows, but this chicken leg is already dirty, let's not want it, okay?" The child's mother spoke softly, constantly comforting Xiao Han'er, and even cast an apologetic look at Lu Xin.
