Drunk for the rest of my life

The next day, the mute arrived on time.He brought wine for Li Xin and food for Xue Zi.

He could smell the fragrance through the food box, so Xue Zi quickly sat down at the dining table, opened the food box and saw that it was the grass carp he had caught earlier.

The fish meat was cut into large pieces, first passed the oil, and then added various condiments to collect the juice.At the moment, it is placed on a plate, with a lot of green onions sprinkled on the surface, and it looks very good.

Xue Zi approached, pulled it a few times with his hands, sniffed the fragrance, and moved his index finger.With a salivating look, he gave the dumb man a thumbs up.

The mute smiled kindly.

Xue Zi was stunned, this was the ninth day he lived here, and it was the first time he saw the old servant's expression other than shaking his head and sighing.

The man looked at it, and if he went up in his sixtieth year, he would be considered decent after tidying up.It's just that the years are not forgiving, the white hair all over the head, and the rickety back all tell the traces of time.With such a smile, the wrinkles on his face deepened.

Xue Zi tidied up his mood and responded with a smile.He turned his head and shouted at the door: "Brother Li Xin! Come quickly! There are fish to eat!"

Li Xin was reclining on the small couch under the pear tree drinking, it was probably Xue Zi's leftover half of the altar from yesterday, and the new one brought by the dumb uncle was put aside untouched.Hearing Xue Zi calling him, he really got up slowly and walked into the house.

The mute restrained his smile, turned around and entered the madman's bedroom.

Xue Zi looked at this and that, it was indescribably weird.

Li Xin sat across from him, saw his doubts, and didn't make a sound.

Seeing Xue Zi hurriedly set the table and chopsticks for him, he said with a smack, "It's a blessing, come and taste it."

Li Xin was unmoved, and drank silently while hugging the previous wine jar.

Xue Zi couldn't wait to taste a piece, and exaggeratedly commented: "Fresh and smooth, juicy and delicious. Yay, this skill can be used as a cook."

He reached out and picked up another large piece of fish, and put it in his bowl.Seeing that the lunatic didn't intend to move his chopsticks, he said again: "Brother Li Xin, try it quickly, it's really delicious."

Li Xin still didn't move, just said: "I know."

Xue Zi no longer cared about him, and began to feast on himself.The mellow rice accompanied by the fresh and tender fish is such a delicacy in the world, it would be a pity to miss it.

Li Xin sat upright opposite him, only watched him eat without saying a word.Xue Zi didn't look outside either, and let him look openly.

The mute packed up and came out, taking away the food box from the previous day.Xue Zi waved at him from behind, "Slow down, come back tomorrow!"

The mute turned around and nodded, and left the courtyard.Xue Zi felt that the old slave's footsteps were much lighter.Glancing at Li Xin again, he came to a conclusion: a lunatic would not be liked by this person.

Xue Zi ate a whole plate of fish with just a bowl of rice, and he couldn't get enough of it.After tidying up the bowls and chopsticks, he urged the lunatic to go fishing in the pond.

Li Xin didn't say yes, but also found a wine gourd and started pouring wine.Xue Zi was overjoyed, and quickly found the previous fishing gear.

"Brother Li Xin, leave half the altar for me."

"Yeah." The lunatic immediately stopped what he was doing, and there was just half of the pot left.

After packing up and going out, the two strolled to the back mountain.It is still the pavilion that has experienced many vicissitudes of life. I just heard the story of the lunatic.

As soon as he sat down, Xue Zi said, "The servant who cleans and brings you wine doesn't like you very much!"

"Why?"

Xue Zi looked at him sideways, as if wondering why this person didn't have such self-knowledge?But looking at his frank face, he should really not know.

"Tut tsk tsk, feeling." Xue Zi said so, but he was thinking in his heart: In fact, it can't be said that he doesn't want to see him. After all, he has worked so hard to take care of the madman for so long, and he has the credit of the madman.

Looking at the way the old slave shook his head and sighed, he hated iron for not being steel?

After a long time, Li Xin said quietly: "He probably blames me for not being able to protect Nian'er well..."

Handing the wine jar to Xue Zi, he picked up the gourd and took a sip slowly, and began to tell today's story.

"That's dumb, Nian'er and I lived in Yunshan just now..."
