When eating at night, Xinghe didn't need to be tempted at all, he ate half a bowl of rice by himself, but it was true that he ate a few more mouthfuls of food because of her.

He suppressed his drowsiness all afternoon, and wanted to sleep after dinner, but seeing the little girl in the room who was still eating snacks by herself, he really couldn't laugh or cry.

Just after eating, you can eat snacks without stopping.

What is her stomach made of?
Actually, Xinghe doesn't have much appetite for supper, but at least he needs to find a reason to stay here, otherwise he will go to bed right after eating, it's not good for his stomach, seeing how thin he can be blown away by a gust of wind, he doesn't feel safe.

Zhuang Guangji didn't drive her away either, he stood by the window and stared at the scenery outside.

Before, he always felt that the scenery here was nothing more than this, and it was enough to look at it from the window. When he went out today, he found that the scenery here was quite good. Although there were no famous rivers and no wonders, it was better than ordinary times, so that he could calm down down.

Xing He dawdled for more than half an hour, and could barely open his eyes, so he said, "Master, then I won't bother you anymore, you should have a good rest."

Only then did Zhuang Guangji turn to look at her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he nodded.

Xinghe went out happily in an instant.

Steward Song has been waiting at the door, seeing her come out to praise her, and then asked the servants to go in and wash him up, the young master is really tired today.

Xinghe fell asleep after washing, it was a sweet smell.

So did Zhuang Guangji, he didn't have to worry about insomnia today, but he was a little worried, and hoped that she would come later tomorrow so that he could rest for a while, thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.

Before, he always thought that he slept too much, and every time he slept, his back hurt and he woke up, but now he misses the past a little bit.

Sure enough, Xinghe got up early in the morning. After washing up, he went to the kitchen for a stroll, and found that it was still the same as yesterday, so he told the cook to change the noodles.

The cook was also obedient, and prepared noodles with a smile.

Now there is no one in the yard who doesn't know this little girl, she has a sharp mouth and a pleasing personality, she is Song Butler's precious lump, the little red person in front of the young master!
Zhuang Guangji slept soundly, and was woken up by the knock on the door, and the sweet and crunchy little girl's voice at the same time.

"Master, look what's for breakfast today."

Zhuang Guangji got up from the bed, put on his coat, rubbed his eyes and sat down at the dining table.

"Hey, this bowl of potato beef brisket noodles is mine, and this bowl of chicken soup noodles is yours."

Zhuang Guangji stared at the bowl that was bigger than her face, froze for a moment, then pursed his lips and smiled.

Although he didn't have much appetite, the noodles were indeed delicious, and she ate them even more deliciously. Before eating, she even put two pieces of beef on the plate in front of him.

Zhuang Guangji doesn't like beef, but he eats it to save face.

He was a normal bowl of chicken noodle soup. He originally ate half of it and didn't want to eat it, but she not only ate the noodles, but also drank most of the soup. The man also finished his own noodles with pickles, but he still didn't drink the soup.

Xinghe burped after eating, and then looked at the noodles he had also finished with satisfaction, thinking that it was a pity that he quit eating and broadcasting.

When Butler Song collected the bowl, he was first surprised that the young master had eaten so much, and then he was shocked that the little girl could really eat it.

Now that I have eaten and drank enough, it is natural to go for a walk.

Xinghe rubbed his stomach and said with a sneer, "Master, I seem to have eaten too much."

Only then did Zhuang Guangji feel relieved, did she finally know?

Xinghe said; "Master, the weather is fine today, let's go for a walk in the yard to digest food!" After finishing speaking, without waiting for him to speak, he turned to the door and said, "Uncle Song, the young master is going to take a walk in the yard, you come in Wait for him to wash up!"

Steward Song responded at the door, and asked the servants who were waiting outside to come in and wash up.

Xinghe also grinned and said, "Master, I came in a hurry this morning and haven't combed my hair yet. I'll do it first."

Looking at the people in the room, Zhuang Guangji had no choice but to nod, and then went out watching her bouncing like a little rabbit.

Steward Song looked at the young master's helpless appearance, and thought that the little girl is amazing!

Zhuang Guangji was indeed planning to take a walk with her, she ate too much, if she didn't exercise, her stomach would explode.

The birds chirping in the trees in the morning are very joyous.

Xinghe pointed to the tree path next to the kitchen; "Master, here is a bird's nest, do you know what the bird's nest looks like? I'll dig it out and show you."

Zhuang Guangji didn't even have time to shake his head when he saw her take off her shoes and climbed up with a "dump-dump-dump", the speed was a bit staggering to see with his own eyes.

Steward Song said anxiously from below; "Miss Shuang'er, be careful, don't fall."

Her voice came down from above and said: "Don't worry, I can climb trees since I was a child, and I am very good at it."

Steward Song scolded with a smile; "It's very powerful, you were probably a sky-piercing monkey in your last life."

Xinghe said with a smile; "Borrow Song Shu's auspicious words", and then came down after digging out the bird's nest three times, five times and two times.

Holding the bird's nest in both hands, he handed it in front of him and said, "Master, there are three bird eggs inside!".

Zhuang Guangji saw such a small egg for the first time. Is this what bird eggs look like?
Reaching out to touch it but hesitated, Xinghe directly took out the bird's egg and handed it to him, and said with a smile, "Master, don't worry, the bird's egg is very hard and won't break when pinched."

Zhuang Guangji smiled and stretched out his hand to take it. He is very small and interesting.

Xinghe said again; "Don't look at them as small, grab a few more, you can make a bowl of soup, it's delicious."

Zhuang Guangji shook the hand holding the bird's egg, then put it in the bird's nest, and pointed to the tree.

Xinghe knew to smash his mouth, and said regretfully; "I wanted to eat yours, but the young master kindly saved your life. When you grow up, remember to sing a few more songs around the young master!".

Zhuang Guangji couldn't help but chuckled.

Seeing her serious appearance, Butler Song agreed with a smile, "Miss Shuang'er is right, the young master saved your life."

While climbing up the tree, Xinghe murmured brokenly; "The young master has a very good heart, not only saved me but also you, I also know who sent flowers and stones to the young master, you must remember to repay the debt." Is it? Otherwise, I will stew you all in one pot."

After the walk, Xinghe sent him to his room, and then said with a smile, "Master, I'll go to the kitchen first to see what's for lunch, so I won't bother you with your reading."

Zhuang Guangji stared at her stomach complicatedly, then nodded.

The meal at noon is still hearty, steamed pork ribs with fish-flavored shredded pork noodles and Baxian soup and two vegetarian dishes.

Zhuang Guangji was too full for breakfast and didn't have much appetite, seeing how much she ate, Huan also ate half a bowl of rice.

Xinghe looked at him with a smile after he was full.

Zhuang Guangji must have come up with something else.

"Do you want to see a particularly stupid fish here? Guaranteed that you have never seen such a stupid fish in your life."

Zhuang Guangji looked at him suspiciously and nodded.

Butler Song followed behind. Today he was not as shocked as yesterday, but he was also beaming. As long as the young master is willing to walk around more, it will definitely be good for his recovery.

Xinghe took him to the river where he had been staying before, and now the river has melted into ice, and there are no stupid fish in it.
Xinghe sighed and said: "Master, now the ice has melted, and it's a pity that the fish are gone."

Even though he said so, there was no regret in his eyes. He was originally tricked out for a stroll.

Zhuang Guangji patted her on the shoulder, signaling her not to be upset.
Xinghe immediately showed his big white teeth, and said gratefully: "Master, you are really a good person."

The corners of Zhuang Guangji's mouth also curved.

So, a group of people walked along the river.

Xinghe continued to say in an endless stream: "Master, the spring here is very beautiful, the mountains are full of wild flowers and colorful flowers, and there are many animals running out, what kind of rabbits, pheasants, have I seen a tiger once?" ? Especially the deer, you know? It’s the one with the long pointed feet, so cute, I’ve always wanted to catch one.”

Butler Song joked with a smile: "What do you want to do when you catch it? Braised? Or Halal? Or boiled?".

Xinghe scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "I heard that the antlers are very expensive and can be sold for a lot of silver. I used to want to earn more money so that my parents would not sell me, but now it's all right, young master You saved my life, my life belongs to the young master, don't worry anymore, my parents have secretly sold me."
It's time to play a wave of emotional cards, otherwise, what if the young master suddenly forgets about me, this poor little girl?Naturally, she had to stay beside him in a legitimate way.
As expected, Zhuang Guangji patted her on the shoulder again, signaling to her that everything in the past is over.
Steward Song seemed to see what she was thinking, and assisted, "I heard from the village chief that you were sold as a child bride when you were three years old. It must be very difficult!".

Zhuang Guangji glanced at Steward Song with some disapproval, how could he bring up other people's sad things?
And Xinghe gave him a big smile, knowing that blindly selling miserably will only arouse people's disgust, and saying something positive can arouse people's goodwill and sympathy.
"Actually, the first family said it was the best for me. Maybe I was too young at that time, and my mother passed away, so I don't remember too clearly. I remember that the little boy I married was two years older than me, and took me every day. , Climbing trees on the mountain, catching shrimps in the river, I will always share half of the delicious food, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to live to be eight years old." After finishing speaking, he sighed silently.
Steward Song continued to assist and said: "Is it really that good? Would that family hang you up and beat you for three days and three nights when his son died?".

Zhuang Guangji looked at her in surprise, as if he was asking whether this matter was true or not.
Xinghe rubbed his eyes on purpose, and said in a hoarse voice: "That's all in the past, it's okay."

Seeing her expression, Zhuang Guangji knew it was true, and he was a little angry. She was only an eight-year-old child at that time, but he actually dropped her and beat her for three days and three nights. Is this still a human thing?Such a person should be damned!

Xinghe saw that his face was not right, and immediately comforted him: "Actually, this is really nothing, my second family is amazing. Guess how old my stepmother found my husband's family?".

Steward Song probably knew that he was an old bachelor, but he didn't know how old he was, so he guessed, "48?".

Xinghe shook his head with a smile, and said: "No, you are guessing a little bigger."

Steward Song continued to guess: "50? 55? 58?" He kept looking at her shaking his head and said in shock, "That can't be 60!".

Zhuang Guangji also looked at her in shock.
Xinghe triumphantly revealed the answer and said: "68 years old, fully 40 years older than me, it's not that bad!".

Steward Song shook his head in disbelief and said, "This is too shameless."

Zhuang Guangji looked at the somewhat complacent little girl in front of him, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable.

Xinghe continued to joke: "On the day of the wedding, he wanted to hunt for some game, but the tiger ate it in one bite."

Steward Song snorted coldly and said, "It serves you right."

Xinghe continued to laugh and said, "My third wedding is even more interesting."

Steward Song asked curiously, "Who is marrying this time?".

It was supposed to be a human tragedy, but she, the person involved, laughed. Zhuang Guangji felt that she had a big heart, and how much suffering she had suffered before she could use her injuries as a joke for others to laugh at.
"My third wife is 38 years old, who is quite normal. I have married five wives before, but either I was beaten to death by him, or I was beaten away by him.".

Steward Song said in shock: "It's like this, how dare your stepmother marry you?".

Xinghe nodded with a smile, and said as a matter of course: "He is a butcher, and his family is rich, so he also gave the most dowry, a full ten taels of silver?".

Zhuang Guangji was so shocked that he couldn't speak at this time.

Steward Song also stammered, "That's ten taels of silver? Don't you care about your life?".

Xinghe kicked the stone on the side of the road, and said braggingly: "Ten taels of silver is a lot, okay? Like the girls in our village, at most eight taels of silver at that age!".

Butler Song really didn't answer the conversation now, and he didn't know what to say.Girls here are really cheap. For a big girl like Xiang Jingcheng, no matter how poor the family is, it costs more than thirty taels of silver.
"But this butcher may be retribution. Before the wedding day, all the pigs in their family died of swine fever." After speaking, he giggled.
Steward Song sighed and asked, "Then you haven't thought about running away?".

Xinghe shrugged, and said indifferently: "At that time, I thought it would be fine if I was beaten to death."

Zhuang Guangji didn't expect that such an optimistic and cheerful little girl would sometimes want to die.

Xinghe saw that their faces were very solemn, so he smiled and said: "If I knew at that time that I would meet you in the future, then I don't want to die anyway."

Butler Song contributed an ugly smirk.

Xinghe continued: "In fact, I ran before, but I was almost beaten to death by my stepmother in the end, and then I will never run away again. Anyway, living is painful, so maybe I will be relieved when I die."

Although she was smiling, the despair and helplessness in her words made their hearts ache.

Xinghe is very satisfied with their expressions at this time, and the rich and colorful inner drama. If she dares to be the second in such things as selling miserably, no one dares to be the first.
At this time, a servant asked: "What about your father? Isn't he your own father? Could it be that he didn't feel anything when he saw you being beaten to death?".

Xinghe sighed and explained: "I heard that my father was very kind to me before I found my stepmother, but my stepmother was too fierce, and my father was also afraid of her, but my father was also very kind to me. When I came back from the divorce, my stepmother beat me to bed, if my father hadn’t secretly brought me water and steamed buns, I would have starved to death.”

Zhuang Guangji finally couldn't listen anymore, and reached out to touch her little head.

Xinghe immediately seized the opportunity, smiled innocently and joyfully and said: "Master, Uncle Song, you are the best people in this world to me. I used to think that good people like you only appear in picture books. Now I feel like I am the happiest person in the world."

She is really a little girl who is easy to satisfy. No one in the room thought she was stupid for not seeing the world. They just thought she was amazing. She survived like this, and she has such a good personality, so lovable, so well-behaved. .
After trusting her, everyone felt extremely heavy on the way back.

Some of them actually complained about being assigned to such a remote place, but after hearing her words, they felt extremely lucky. She didn't complain, so what right did they have to complain?

Hearing what she said, Zhuang Guangji was deeply moved, and the knot in his heart that had been stagnant was also loosened a lot.

I was just so self-willed and depraved because my throat was hurt, complaining about others, even the little girl in front of me was inferior, if I really let myself experience everything she experienced, I am afraid that I would have disappeared in this world long ago.

Xinghe never thought that a few miserable words of his would have such a big impact on them.

When eating at night, Xinghe didn't even have time to speak, and saw him pick up the bowl and start eating.

It's different from eating like he usually copes with it. Now he really wants to eat, and he actually ate a big bowl full and drank a bowl of soup.
After eating, he went directly to the desk to read. Usually he would stand at the window and look at the scenery outside the window.

Xinghe was too embarrassed to disturb him, so he went out secretly after staying in the room for a while.

And the courtyard was also very lively tonight, there was actually a group of boys practicing martial arts, the courtyard was usually deserted.
At this time Steward Song came out of the house, Xinghe quickly asked: "Uncle Song, why is everyone so strange tonight?".

Butler Song said with a smile: "Apart from them, who else is strange?".

Xinghe pointed to Zhuang Guangji's room and said, "Young master is also very strange. Usually after eating, I go to the window to look at the scenery, but just after eating, I read a book at the desk."

Steward Song said gratefully, "It's all thanks to you!".
