Zhang Xiu comes to visit

Author: Mu Shenghua

Zhang Xiu comes to visit

Cheng Huai nodded in agreement and carried Jiang Miao to Yu Ying's house.

There are only three rooms in the Cheng family. The one on the left belongs to Yu Ying, and the one on the right belongs to Cheng Huai. Yu Ying usually sleeps with the two children, and the middle room is used as a main room for dinner parties.

All the guests are here, and as for cooking and bathing, a few thatched huts were temporarily built in the back.

"Brother, give me a hug~" Cheng Dabao reached out to Yu Ying with some disappointment. His father didn't hug him today when he came back.

Dabao, I’m not happy!

Yu Ying stretched out her hand to pull up the left and right door panels, fastened the door bolts, turned around and picked up Cheng Dabao, who was lying on the ground.

When Cheng Xiaobao saw it, he stretched out his right hand and grabbed Yu Ying's trouser leg, pulling it down without saying a word.

Yu Ying bent down and picked up Xiaobao, stuck it around his waist and hugged him, saying with a serious face: "Your father has something to do, don't make trouble with him tonight."

Cheng Dabao: "Noisy..."

Cheng Xiaobao looked down at the ground and nodded, as if he understood.

Yu Ying carried them to Cheng Huai's house on the right. With that girl here tonight, these two little guys naturally couldn't sleep with her. It would be too much trouble.

After taking off Cheng Dabao and Cheng Xiaobao's coat, Yu Ying stuffed them into the quilt, pretending to be dignified: "Hurry up and go to bed."

Cheng Dabao took out a hand from the quilt, put his fingers in his mouth and sucked it, and looked at Yu Ying with bright black grape eyes: "Grandma, please."

Cheng Xiaobao tilted his head and looked at Cheng Dabao. He didn't say anything and followed his brother's example of sucking his fingers.

Yu Ying was helpless. She sat on the edge and stretched out her hands, patted the two cubs respectively, "Coax, you can't suck your fingers."

Cheng Dabao bit his fingers and closed his eyes, gradually becoming sleepy.

Cheng Xiaobao handed his hand to Yu Ying and said in a crisp voice: "Milk, eat."

Yu Ying touched Xiaobao's head and laughed softly: "If you don't want to drink milk, be good, Xiaobao, go to sleep."

Here, as soon as Cheng Huai put down Jiang Miao, he found that her hand was still holding his sleeve.

He lowered his head, took his hand out of her waist, hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand to pry off her fingers.

He raised his head and met Jiang Miao's bright eyes, looking straight at him.

Cheng Huai paused, pursed his lower lip, and said, "Let go."

Jiang Miao blinked, quickly let go of her hand, and said in a weak voice: "Thank you."

If Cheng Huai hadn't fished her out of the river and taken her to see a doctor, he would have really become a lonely ghost by now.

Cheng Huai stood up immediately and turned around to go out. He heard Jiang Miao shout again: "Well, Cheng...Brother Cheng, do you have dry clothes? My clothes are all wet."

The opponent's footsteps paused for a moment and then walked faster.

Jiang Miao looked at the door blankly. Does she look scary now, walking so fast?

Thinking like this, she raised her hand and touched her head, "Hiss..." She didn't know if her appearance would be disfigured.

Well, in her current situation, she has no right to think about what her face looks like.

Jiang Miao in the book is a cannon fodder character who died after falling into the water. Her description is almost a brush stroke.

She also felt that the name Lushui Village was very familiar, and then she remembered that she had read a book like this a while ago. She passed the time and flipped through it, almost forgetting the plot.

Only one thing she remembered very clearly was that the great dynasty suffered from long-term drought, famine, and starvation all over the land.

Thinking about the scene described in the book, Jiang Miao felt a chill on the back of her neck.

She didn't want to die again. After finally surviving, she had to survive.

Jiang Miao was immersed in her own thoughts. It wasn't until the door panel creaked that she came to her senses and raised her head.

Yu Ying walked in, holding clothes in her hand, "Girl Miao, these clothes are clean. Auntie, please put them on for you."

Jiang Miao quickly reached out and took it, showing a sweet smile: "Thank you, Auntie, I can just change it myself."

"Hey, then you can change it yourself. If necessary, call Auntie." Yu Ying took back her hand and stood beside her, looking at her with a kind smile.

Jiang Miao felt numb from being stared at, so she turned sideways with her clothes and quickly changed them.

Yu Ying stood aside and looked at it carefully. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became. This girl has a good appearance, with curved eyebrows, a small cherry mouth, a pretty nose, and a fair face. It makes people feel sad to see her.

joy.

She stepped forward and took Jiang Miao's wet clothes in her hands, "Auntie will wash these wet clothes for you tomorrow, so you can wear this with peace of mind."

"Thank you, Auntie, I'll just wash it myself tomorrow," Jiang Miao said hurriedly.

They are not related to each other and have no acquaintance with each other. It is a matter of justice to save her. How can she continue to accept each other's kindness with peace of mind.

Yu Ying didn't think much about it and smiled gently: "You are injured now. Auntie will wash it for you. It won't take any trouble."

The other party was so enthusiastic that Jiang Miao couldn't refuse anymore, so she thought she could only repay the favor later.

Yu Ying also got her a bowl of porridge to drink. Although it was very thin, it warmed her body a lot.

Cheng Huai didn't show up again at night, and Jiang Miao slept with Yu Ying. It was the first time a stranger slept next to her, and she felt very strange in her heart.

She was left in an orphanage since she was a child. She has no parents and no home. The director's mother is her mother, and the orphanage is her home.

So when she grows up, what she wants most is a house of her own, so that it looks like she has a complete home.

It's a pity that the house is available but she is gone.

Jiang Miao looked at the darkness in front of her and let out a long sigh.

A hand from beside her reached over and patted her, with a somewhat comforting tone: "Don't think too much, girl, the hard days will pass."

Cheng Huai told her everything about her, how pitiful she was.

The kind and kind voice was very similar to the way the dean's mother used to coax her when she was a child. Jiang Miao turned sideways and buried her head, her eyes a little sore.

The next day, Cheng Huai prepared to go up the mountain early in the morning.

Now is the season for clearing land and planting melons. The land on the mountain needs to be cleared early so that we can have vegetables when the weather gets hotter.

Yu Ying also wanted to help with the work, but there was no one to take care of the two children at home, who were less than two years old. Taking them out was too much work, so they simply had no choice but to stay at home.

"The baked vegetable pancakes have been put in the bag. Don't forget to eat them when you get busy. The kettle is also in it. Remember to drink water after working for a while." Yu Ying warned seriously while opening the door.

Cheng Huai took the bag silently and glanced at the door of the room on the left, seeming a little worried.

Seeing the worried look in his eyes, Yu Ying reached out and pushed his arm, and said with a smile: "Hurry up the mountain, Miss Miao can take care of you. Come back early for lunch."

Cheng Huai then walked out of the small courtyard with a hoe, and saw Zhang Xiu from a distance climbing the slope and rushing towards his house.

He walked back around and reached the door of his house. He hung the bag on the wall and held the hoe in his hand.

"Why are you back again? What did you forget to bring?" Yu Ying hurried over and asked.

"Mom, you go in first." Cheng Huai whispered.
