Nanshanxia

Now the sky is getting darker and darker, and there is a cool wind blowing in the summer night. There is moisture in the cool wind, and it is obviously going to rain. This is the first rain that Zhu Yan has encountered since crossing over.

Zhu Yan didn't care about emotion at the moment, he followed Yuan Xiao's faster and faster pace, and followed him to the backyard of Zhu's second house, and then slowed down, Zhu Yan looked at Yuan Xiao's furtive In this way, he still made the sound of attracting chicken cubs from time to time, so he guessed who the vixen in the village and outside the village was.

This kid usually pretends to be timid and fearful, but now he is doing what the villagers fear the most. He is really an annoying vixen!

At this time, the rain had already poured down from the sky, and he looked at Yuan Xiao who was still seducing the old hen outside, feeling sore, he walked forward quickly, and before Yuan Xiao could react, he clamped hard Yuan Xiao's wrist, regardless of the opponent's surprise, happily pulled him away.

Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao walked for a while, Yuan Xiao didn't speak, just lowered his head so that people couldn't see his expression clearly, Zhu Yan didn't expect Yuan Xiao to say anything to him at this moment, he held Yuan Xiao's wrist step by step go home.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Xiao suddenly refused to cooperate with the work, and no longer let Zhu Yan drag him away. He stood firmly in the rain, looked up at Zhu Yan's expressionless face at the moment, opened and closed his mouth but still didn't say anything. In a word.

"Why are you standing there stupidly? Come home with me." Zhu Yan was still holding Yuan Xiao's wrist, and felt Yuan Xiao's body trembling from Yuan Xiao's wrist. He walked forward and whispered to Yuan Xiao. He said in his ear: "Do you think Zhu Laoer is stupid? After suffering once, you will suffer a second time? If you do those things this time, how will you explain it if you are found out? Say you are a vixen?"

"Ah Yan..." Yuan Xiao's eyes were hard to open due to the rain. He wiped off the rain on his face with the other hand, looked at Zhu Yan with red eyes, and muttered, "You know everything?"

Zhu Yan finally couldn't bear it anymore, he stretched out his hand and pinched Yuan Xiao's cheek, and said helplessly, "You have already done this, if I can't figure it out, then I am really a fool gone."

"Then..." Yuan Xiao still looked up at Zhu Yan, wanting to continue talking, but was stopped by Zhu Yan, so he had no choice but to let Zhu Yan lead him home.

When they got home, Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao were drenched, and they saw the old lady Zhu holding an umbrella at the door. Zhu Yan knew that there would be another interrogation, so he turned his head and told Yuan Xiao, "Next Just stop talking, I'll cover this lie, just nod your head if you have nothing to do."

"Yeah." At this time, Yuan Xiao was more honest than before, he just lowered his head and followed behind Zhu Yan in silence.

"Oh, my little ancestor, you and your husband have gone to beg for rain, each of you looks like a drowned chicken." The old lady Zhu put all the umbrellas on Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao, and told them to hurry into the main room .

After entering the main room, Zhu Yanshi explained with a smile: "It's my fault, I was overwhelmed after eating, so I urged Yuan Xiao to follow me to the field to see when the bean sprouts will grow, who knows that it started to rain on the way , and almost killed both of us."

"Of course the bean sprouts grew in autumn. You don't eat radishes and don't worry about them? Look at how miserable you two are, quickly wipe them with a dry cloth, so as not to catch cold at night." The old lady Zhu asked Zhu Yan and Yuan Xiao Xiao dried her hair, and she didn't forget to tell Bai Zhen to boil hot water for Zhu Yan and the others so that they could take a hot bath later.

Zhu Yan smiled at the old lady Zhu, "It's okay, we two old men are not so delicate."

"You can do it. Go take a bath obediently for me in a while." The old lady Zhu was helpless for her precious grandson who was getting more and more talkative. Yuan Xiao, who didn't make a sound when he came back, rushed forward to take a look, stretched out his hand worriedly, tested the temperature on Yuan Xiao's forehead, and found that Yuan Xiao was fine, so he felt relieved and continued chatting Talking about Zhu Yan, "Ah Yan, grandma can't turn to you this time, look at what you have done to Yuan Xiao, it's all drooping, it's the first time I've seen this child like this, please treat him well in the future People, don't always toss people."

"Grandma, I'm not feeling bad, I..."

"Yes, yes, what grandma taught me is that I won't dare in the future." Zhu Yan interrupted Yuan Xiao's next words at the right time, and used his usual routine to deceive the old lady Zhu. The wife lost her temper after coaxing them, and finally ran to the kitchen to make ginger soup for them.

After the old lady Zhu left, there was no one in the main room anymore. Yuan Xiao lowered his head and peeked at Zhu Yan's every move from time to time. When Zhu Yan got up and left and entered the inner room, he followed quickly. Going in, Yuan Xiao looked at Zhu Yan with red eyes as soon as he entered the room, "Ah Yan, it was my fault, which caused you to be scolded by grandma."

With Zhu Yan's status in Zhu's family, Zhu Yan has never been preached by anyone. Now this time should be regarded as the first time. Thinking of this, Yuan Xiao felt even more guilty. He opened his mouth and said, "I wish the second child is too bad, so he treats you and still despises you. I'm angry for you."

"What about Yuanjia Village?" Zhu Yan knew that Yuan Xiao was embarrassing Zhu's second child because of himself, so what about Yuanjia Village?At the beginning, he had heard from the old lady Zhu that several households in Yuanjia Village had lost their chickens and ducks, so what is the difference between Yuan Xiao and Yuanjia Village?

This time Yuan Xiao didn't answer Zhu Yan's words, and sat silently on the wooden bed. Seeing Yuan Xiao's silence, Zhu Yan didn't force himself anymore, turned around and left the room.

After taking a bath in Zhu Tie Dan's room, Zhu Yan changed into dry clothes and wandered around the door of the main room. At this time, the old lady Zhu also came over with a bowl of ginger soup. She saw that Zhu Yan hadn't returned for a long time. He revealed to Zhu Yan: "Yuan Xiao just finished washing, and he drank ginger soup at this time, probably going to sleep, why don't you go back to the room?"

"Grandma..." Zhu Yan listened to the sound of the rain hitting the eaves, looked at the dark sky, his face was full of confusion, he paused for a long time, and then continued: "Can you tell me about Yuan Xiao and Yuanjia Village?" thing?"

"What's wrong, you two quarreled? When I went into the back room to give Yuan Xiao ginger soup, Yuan Xiao's eyes were as red as a rabbit." The old lady Zhu looked at Zhu Yan, seeing that Zhu Yan hadn't spoken, He sat directly on the threshold of the main room.

Zhu Yan looked at the yard washed by the heavy rain, and the osmanthus tree shaken by the wind and rain, and his heart began to shake. He calmed down for a moment and refused: "There is no quarrel, but we talked about it accidentally on the road, Yuan Xiao will not Speak."

"Ah Yan, you have to know that everyone has things in their hearts that they don't want to mention again. You can't blame Yuan Xiao for this matter. That child has had a hard life since he was a child. If he hadn't met your mother on the road, he might have died a long time ago. .”

"My mother?" Zhu Yan turned his head to look at the old lady Zhu, his brows and eyes were full of puzzlement, "Grandma, what is going on?"

Regarding Yuan Xiao's matter, Zhu Yan must know, and the old lady Zhu did not hide anything, and told all the things that happened before.

It turned out that before, the original owner's mother, Zhou Guixiang, in order to make money to subsidize the family, had traveled to the mountains to collect herbs and mountain products. When passing by Yuanjia Village, she happened to witness the scene of the old Yuan's selling children.

At that time, Yuan Xiao was only eight years old, and his biological parents and his uncle's family were about to sell him to the fireworks place in the town. Qian Cai was dazed and remained unmoved in the face of Yuan Xiao's begging and crying.

Zhou Guixiang felt sorry for the child, and then thought of the stupid son at home. According to his stupid son, he might not be able to get a wife in this lifetime, so it would be better to get a child bride-in-law back, and simply stepped forward to stop the old Yuan's family from continuing to drag Yuan Xiao went to the town and bought Yuan Xiao back with his own pocket.

The old lady Zhu told Zhu Yan the general ins and outs of the matter. Seeing that Zhu Yan listened seriously, she continued to recall the scene when she first met Yuan Xiao, "You don't know what it was like when Yuan Xiao first came to our house. There is no paint on Zhang Jing's delicate face, but the part of the body covered by clothes is full of marks from pinching with hands, and bruises from sticks. Ten fingernails are gone. It's just me. The old lady feels distressed when she looks at it!"

"Why did they abuse Yuan Xiao like that?" Zhu Yan was angry for the first time, he took a breath, and then he eased his anger, "Are they Yuan Xiao's relatives, and they pulled out their nails?"

"Oh, little ancestor, can you keep your voice down?" The old lady Zhu shrank in fright from Zhu Yan's sudden high-decibel voice, looked around, and said in a low voice, "Listen to what your mother said at that time. , it wasn't pulled out, it was caused by Yuan Xiao hugging the tree desperately, and the old Yuan's family dragged him fiercely. Your mother shed tears when she gave him the medicine, and told Yuan Xiao that she would take care of him from now on. You won't have anyone hurt him like that."

Zhu Yan suddenly understood what the promise Yuan Xiao had made to him was, and why the family was so poor and the original owner was so stupid at the time, and he never left. All this was due to his gratitude to the original owner's mother, Zhou Guixiang. , and also knew why Yuan Xiao would block Yuanjia Village. Zhu Yan, who knew all the answers, set his sights on the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the center of the yard. Listening to the sound of the rain and the wind blowing the leaves, he frowned and stopped talking.

After a long silence, the old lady Zhu sighed, "Your mother said that you and Yuan Xiao are both hard-working children, but maybe two hard-working children will not be miserable together."

"Grandma, it was my mistake. I shouldn't have asked him like that." Zhu Yan also followed the old lady Zhu and sat on the threshold, recalling Yuan Xiao's appearance in the inner room before. He made a mistake this time. Yes, he took the initiative to uncover Yuan Xiao's scar.

The old lady Zhu noticed the regret in Zhu Yan's words, and she continued to tell Zhu Yan, "After that, Yuan Xiao gradually got to know us, and started to help us with work, just like our own children, he didn't do that. If you mention it again, we won’t ask any more. Grandma told you today, it’s good that you are rotten in your stomach, don’t mention this to Yuan Xiao again, it’s hurtful to ask like that, and he will never say it in his life .”

"Well, Grandma, I understand." Zhu Yan pursed his lips tightly, wanting to get up and go back to the room to apologize to Yuan Xiao.

At this time, the old lady Zhu stopped Zhu Yan again, "Ah Yan, that child Yuan Xiao has never been in our house, no matter how hard he has suffered or suffered, he has never been as helpless as when he first came to our house. Today I saw his appearance again in the room, that child is sincerely treating you now, so don't let him down."

"Yeah." Zhu Yan was stunned for a while, and after a while, he got up and went back to the room.

The old lady Duliu Zhu looked at the dark sky and said quietly: "I hope tomorrow will be a good day!"
