Dihao's civilian life

As soon as it got dark, torches were lit at the west gate of Yucheng, and guards stood guarding the gate.People are used to returning home at dusk, like birds that return to their nests at sunset, few people return after dark.When Yu Su appeared outside the west gate of Yu City with Si Hao, the torches of the guards shone on Yu Su's face, recognized him as Yu Mao's youngest son, and waved him to let him go.The guard just glanced at Si Hao and a puppy beside him.

Si Hao followed Yu Su into Yu City, and he saw the lights in the settlements of Yu City. It was a family of people, under the night, like stars in the sky, since leaving Ren Yi, Si Hao has never seen such lights. Big settlement.Thinking of Yu Su growing up here since childhood, Si Hao felt a little familiar with Yu Cheng.

During the day, Si Hao left Yao Tun's house to explore the deep forest.When he first came to Yudi, he only knew the location of Yucheng. At that time, he was not looking for the location of Yucheng, but just wanted to see what was beyond the lakeside.Zihu is as beautiful as a dream, and Ji Gu is beyond his imagination, he has gone too far without knowing it.Before breaking into the Shenmu area, he actually had a feeling, like a calling, driven by something, he kept walking, without stopping, towards an unknown area.

In the end, he met Yu Su under the sacred tree.

At this time, following Yu Su to the road leading to the northern district of Yucheng, Si Hao was still thinking, is this the instruction of the gods that people say?Si Hao has always been pragmatic, he doesn't believe in these things, but he still finds them inconceivable.

Under the cover of night, enter Yucheng.Along the way, no one questioned Si Hao or inquired about him.People were busy eating at home and chatting in the house. Even if someone bumped into him head-on, they would at most take a look at Si Hao, thinking that maybe he was from the Southern District, so they didn't meet him.

Yu Su took Si Hao to the front of his courtyard. Before the two of them entered the courtyard, he heard his mother's anxious voice in the courtyard.

"Su Er, where have you been? Why did you come back now, and I asked you to pick mushrooms, you..." Mother Yu said, and rushed towards Yu Su. The tall man next to him.

When they met Si Hao in Jigu, Yu Su and Si Hao sat under the sacred tree to talk about their separation, and it was dusk before they knew it.The mushroom-picking team was going back to the city. Sister He came to Shenmu to look for Yu Su. Yu Su asked her to send a message to Yu Mu, saying that he met a friend in the forest and would go back to the city before dark.Sister He and Yu Su's family are neighbors, and they have a good relationship with Mother Yu.Sister He didn't respond immediately, but looked at Si Hao, seeing that he didn't look like a villain, so she left in peace.

Sister He must have conveyed it to Mother Yu, but it's normal for Mother Yu to be worried. At this time, it was getting dark and Yu Su came back.

"Who is he?" The courtyard was dim, and Mother Yu couldn't see Si Hao's appearance clearly, but his figure was very strange, unlike Yu Su's companions.

"Grandmother, he is Artemisia grazing in Jiaoshan, and he moved to live in Yudi." Yu Su introduced Si Hao, he often mentioned Si Hao at home, and Yu's mother knew him.

"Oh..." Yu's mother was stunned, Jiaoshan was a long way from Yucheng, why did he suddenly move out of Renfang and come to Yudi?Mother Yu is a hospitable person, so she didn't think too much, and greeted Si Hao: "Come, sit inside, you are also hungry just after cooking."

"Excuse me." Si Hao bowed to Mother Yu.The courtyard was dim, and he couldn't see Mother Yu's appearance clearly, but he felt that she was a gentle and decent person.

Ordinary people seldom salute, but Si Hao's modesty and politeness left a good impression on Mother Yu.

"Thanks for taking care of our little Su, I have to thank you very much. Don't be polite, come in." Mother Yu greeted warmly.Yu Suping mentioned Si Hao every day. Although it was the first time for Mother Yu to see him, she felt somewhat familiar.

Father Yu was originally in the house, but when he heard voices from outside, he went to check the door.The firepit in the house was burning, and the light was shining on the door. Si Hao stepped in, and Father Yu was standing by the door, surprised by his extraordinary appearance.

Si Hao's appearance does not look like a shepherd at all, he is very handsome, and there is a kind of calmness and stability in his gestures, even though he is just an adult.

"Father, he is Artemisia grazing in Jiaoshan." Yu Su introduced Si Hao to his father.Father Yu nodded. He had just heard their conversation in the courtyard. He said to Si Hao, "Xiao Su often mentioned you, and I just saw you today. Hao, when will you come to Yudi? Is there a place to stay?" ?”

Si Hao said respectfully: "I have been in Yudi for two days, and I live in Yaotun."

Yao Tun, Father Yu knew that there were not many people living in that village, and they lived scattered, all of them were from the Yao family without exception.How could he, a shepherd grazing in Jiaoshan, live in Yaotun in Yudi?Yu's father wanted to ask something more, but Yu's mother and Yu Su had already brought the food, and Yu's mother greeted him, "Eat while it's hot, warm your stomach before talking."

It was a cold autumn night, and the two of them came back from outside again. In case they would catch a cold, Mother Yu served both Yu Su and Si Hao a hot soup.

The food at Yu Su's family is good. There is fish soup, steamed millet rice, and two dishes of soy sauce for dipping vegetables, one of which is bean paste and the other is meat sauce.How did Si Hao know that the bean paste he dipped in was what Yu Su had made earlier for him to eat.

While eating, Father Yu still did not forget to talk to Si Hao.Father Yu has seen many things in the world, and he has doubts about Si Hao.

"Your parents are from Yaotun?" Father Yu asked.

"No, it was a friend of Yao Tun who lent me his old house to live in." Si Hao explained truthfully.

"Why did you leave Jiaoshan alone? I don't think you are very old." Father Yu continued to ask.

"To avoid my father's enemies, I went to Jiaoshan to graze, and now I come to Yudi again." Si Hao told what he could say as much as possible.

Hearing Si Hao's words, Yu's father nodded, and he knew that this young man's speech and behavior like a nobleman might not be easy.It is not uncommon for people from Ren and Yu to move between the two places to avoid hatred. It is no wonder that both his parents died and he was young, but he was grazing in Jiaoshan alone.

"I heard from Xiao Su that you lost your parents when you were very young." Mother Yu felt that the child was really pitiful when she heard what Si Hao said.

"Yes, they all died not long after I was born." Si Hao mentioned his parents calmly, "I was brought up by my uncle, and I only left home at the age of 16." Regarding Yu Su's parents, he said everything True, although he has concealed it.

Mother Yu was very sad when she heard it, because it was a tragic thing, so Mother Yu didn't ask how his parents died.

"Yaotun is lonely there, why don't you move to Yucheng, and I'll help you find a place to live." Father Yu is a well-known person in Yucheng, with his support, no one will have any objections to Si Hao, an outsider.

"Thanks to the kindness, I can fish and hunt, and I just live in Yaotun." Si Hao bowed, and he treated Yu's father with great respect.From Yu's father's words, it can be seen that he has a straightforward personality and a warm heart.

Yaotun is located in Jigu, which is convenient for hunting and fishing, but people like to live in lively places, and Yaotun is remote.Seeing Si Hao's refusal, Father Yu didn't say anything else, guessing that he was afraid of causing trouble to others, or had other concerns.

When Yu's father talked with Si Hao, Yu Su listened silently. He was a little worried at first, but now seeing that his father no longer asked about Si Hao, and lowered his head to eat the fish soup with a leisurely look, he finally let go of his heart.Yu Su knew his parents well, they treated others generously, even if they knew that Si Hao was from the Luo Si clan, they would not despise him.As for what she was worried about, Yu Su couldn't tell, maybe she was afraid that her parents and Si Hao wouldn't get along well?

The first reason for bringing Si Hao back to Yucheng to meet his parents is that Shenmu is close to home, safe, and there are hot meals for Si Hao to eat;

After a meal, Father Yu was talking to Si Hao again. He asked how many days Si Hao could live in Yucheng?Si Hao explained that he had to go back before dawn, and he didn't want to attract attention for the time being.

Father Yu still understood that this young man was so eye-catching. He stayed at home for two days, and the neighbors probably would come to inquire about him.

"If there is something missing in Yaotun, you are welcome to tell us." Father Yu was willing to offer some help.

"I have to bring some rice," Mother Yu said.There are few rice grains in Yaotun, which is not easy to get like Yucheng.

"Eat like lakes and mountains." Si Hao replied.

"Do you have bowls, clothes, and quilts?" Father Yu asked.

"A few pieces of pottery are missing." Si Hao replied honestly.Almost all the pottery that Yu Su fired for him was left to Hu, who liked it very much, and he was short of it.Si Hao was reluctant to give up, but Hu had the great kindness of saving his life.

"I have pottery at home. Su'er has burned a lot, so I just brought it for you." Mother Yu smiled.

The couple talked with Si Hao for a few more words, Yu's father got up and left, saying that he had to go to the club, and Yu's mother was busy by the firepit, cleaning up the cooking utensils and dishes.

Yu Su took a rough clay bowl, filled it with food, and went to the courtyard to feed Dahei.I have to say that Dahei is a very smart dog. After entering Yucheng, he was silent and behaved very well.

Dahei was eager to eat and devoured it voraciously. He has been running around for the past few days, eating poorly like his master.Yu Su patted it on the head, thinking that Si Hao had come to Yudi for two days, and it was lucky to have him with him, otherwise he was really lonely.

Si Hao went out of the house and came to the courtyard, looking at the Tangli tree, the starry sky and the full moon, thinking about everything.Yu Su walked up to him and stood beside him. The two quietly clasped their hands in the dark courtyard.

The night in Yucheng is really peaceful and beautiful.The sound of friendly conversations from the neighbors, the laughter of children, and the voices of young people calling for friends, this is the feeling of home.

At night, Si Hao was placed in the room next to Yu Su's, which was the dormitory of Yu Su's elder brother Yu Xi.Yu Su ran to find him, and the two sat on the grass mud platform, talking softly.Mother Yu saw that they were close, with a smile on her face, so she ignored them. She wanted to ask Yu Su to take someone to visit the Sheshu.

In the middle of the night, Yu's mother and Yu's father fell asleep, and Yu Su was still in Sihao's room.The doors and windows in the room were closed, and a small oil lamp was burning, providing very limited lighting.Si Hao sat on the grass mud platform, and Yu Su sat under the grass mud platform. He rested his head on Si Hao's lap, and Si Hao stroked Yu Su's hair and back. The two stayed together like this without speaking.

The joy of their reunion today is all told under the Shenmu, and what is left for them at this time is an aftertaste, but it is enough for them to taste it over and over again.

After an unknown amount of time, the ointment in the oil lamp was almost burned out, and the light was dim. It reminded them that it was getting late.Yu Su got up and turned on the oil lamp to let it use his peripheral vision to the fullest.Si Hao stood up and came behind Yu Su. He silently put his arms around Yu Su's waist, and the two leaned close to each other.

In the dead of night, no matter how small a word is, it may come from the room.Yu Su turned around and hugged Si Hao together. The two embraced silently, but only hugged.

Si Hao let go of Yu Su, and touched his face, Yu Su smiled slightly with a smile on his brows and eyes.

When Yu Su gently opened the door and left, Si Hao was already lying on the grass mud platform, and he knew that Yu Su was sleeping next to him, separated by a wall.

That night, Si Hao slept comfortably, lying in Yusu's house, as if lying in the hut in Luoyuqiu, they all have the atmosphere of home.

In the early morning, Si Hao woke up and heard the sound outside the door, indicating that Yu Su's family had already woken up.

Pushing open the door, Si Hao saw Yu's mother cooking by the fire pond, Yu Su and Yu's father in the courtyard, and they wrapped pottery with straw.The pottery was put into a bamboo basket, stacked on top of each other, so that there was one basket.The things prepared for Si Hao are not only this basket of pottery, but also a bag of corn, a bag of flour and a can of bean paste.

Si Hao was very moved. He knew that to Yu Su's parents, he was just someone they met last night, and they treated him so kindly just because he had taken care of Yu Su.Yu Su grew up in such a family, no wonder he is so gentle and kind.

Si Hao's kindness was hard to bear, and he carried two bags of rice noodles on his right shoulder, while Yu Su held a can of bean paste and a bamboo basket containing pottery on his back.They were walking one after the other, and were about to leave the courtyard when Father Yu said, "The road to Jigu is not easy, I will accompany you there." Yu Su said, "Father, I know the way."

Father Yu took out a spear from behind the door, followed him, and said, "It's not yet dawn, I'm afraid you may encounter wild animals."

The two people who went out became three people. When the sky was bright, they walked out of the west gate of Yucheng and entered the deep forest of Jigu.

According to Yu's father, from the west gate of Yucheng to Zihu, the safest way is to take the hunter's passage of Yucheng.This passage will pass through Shenmu, then go straight through Bailin, and arrive at Yaotun by the Purple Lake.

"If you have a boat in the future, it will be very convenient to come to Yucheng. Rowing from Zihu Lake, heading to Xiaoziping, and walking eastward on Duanlin Road, you will arrive at Yucheng." Father Yu is quite familiar with Jigu. When he was young, he didn't like So lazy now, was once an active hunter.

"There are many giant trees in the forest, they can be used as a canoe." Si Hao replied.He already had this idea. Having a boat is convenient for fishing, and it can also shorten the distance with Yucheng.

The three of them came to the Shenmu area, and Yu's father taught Si Hao how to identify the direction. He pointed out the four old trees in the forest.The old tree facing south is a pine and cypress, and its thickest branch points to the south.Follow its direction, go straight forward, and you can reach Yaotun in Zihu.

Si Hao thanked Yu's father, he kept it in his heart, and he would know how to get there next time, so as not to get lost in this old forest.

Go south all the way and enter Bailin.The trees here have white trunks, they are tall and straight, without vines or branches, piercing the sky.When they got out of the white forest, their eyes suddenly became enlightened, the waters were boundless, and they had arrived at Purple Lake.

At this point, Si Hao knew the way and let him lead the way.He led Yu Su and his son to a highland by the lake, where there was a dilapidated earthen house.

Climb to the high ground and take a closer look. The house is made of wood and soil, and the tiles used for the roof, although weathered by wind and rain, look solid.The house has obviously been tidied up, and the weeds that should have grown in the front of the yard, the roof, the steps, and the cracks in the door have disappeared without a trace.

Father Yu entered the house, inspected the house carefully, and came out and said, "The roof, doors and windows all need to be repaired, and it's very windy in autumn." Looking at the lake in front of him, he saw two deer drinking water, and asked, "Artemisia, what are you looking for?" Have you crossed the water source?"

"I've looked for it, there is a well nearby." Si Hao replied.The well is behind the house, down a ramp.Si Hao went to carry water, and saw another family carrying water there.

In this highland, the trees are sparse and the residents are scattered, giving people a sense of loneliness.This area is called Yaotun, and including Si Hao, there are only a few families.

At noon, Father Yu left Yaotun and was alone.

Yu Su told his father that he would stay and help Si Hao repair the house.Autumn days are already leisurely, Yu's father agreed, but asked Yu Su not to stay for a long time, lest his mother would worry.

The author has something to say: Director: Mr. Hao has met his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so he must behave well in the future.
