two ears pricked up

Bai Xi had a pitiful appearance of crying and dying at any time. Huo Zheng had never been with such a weak person, so he had to comfort him in a deep voice, and assured him again and again, "I won't die."

The person on the bed was still humming, and Huo Zheng had a headache, "Sister-in-law, wait for me here for a while." He was a man who didn't have a clean handkerchief on him, and his sister-in-law...

His sister-in-law probably didn't even know what a handkerchief was.

Bai Xi blinked and murmured, until Huo Zheng went out and couldn't see the back of the person before he reluctantly looked away, the nosebleed hadn't stopped yet, his mouth opened, and the smell of blood filled his mouth.

Fluffy's head drooped listlessly, Bai Xi desperately thought that Huo Zheng was hiding something from him in order not to make him sad.

In just a short time, Bai Xi burst into tears and made up many miserable scenes in his brain. The more he thought about it, the more sad he became. He never expected that he would die soon after he transformed into a human form.

Huo Zheng carried the well water into the house, only to see Bai Xi's face was smeared with nosebleed brought up by tears, it was really funny and pitiful.

He put the tub in place and carefully helped him up, Bai Xi opened his eyes in a daze, seeing him, he mumbled weakly, "I'm not dead yet."

Hearing this, Huo Zheng felt helpless, and wanted to tell the other party that some nosebleeds would not kill anyone, but seeing Bai Xi pitifully, he just shook his head and told him what he said just now, as if to give him a dose of reassurance, "No die."

Bai Xiwei raised his head and leaned on it, blood was mixed under his nose, Huo Zheng soaked his palms in the water, his palms were wet, he said an offense, and just now he began to pat Bai Xixi's forehead without distraction.

The cold well water wet his forehead, and it was cold at night, Bai Xi's mouth made a hissing sound, but his body obediently let Huo Zheng move.Patting his forehead with water repeatedly, Huo Zheng took a handkerchief and wiped it dry. This time, he didn't wipe Bai Xi's face. The difference between men and women, and the other party was his sister-in-law, the behavior just now was a last resort to offend him. Huo Zheng Zheng felt guilty, without any emotion on his face, and said, "Sister-in-law, wipe your face clean first."

Bai Xi asked, "Aren't you going to wipe it for me?"

Huo Zheng shook his head, "No."

Bai Xi had no choice but to take the handkerchief and wipe his face himself. His face was clean. He touched his nose and found that the nosebleed had actually stopped.Overjoyed in his heart, he hugged Huo Zheng who was sitting on the side, "You are amazing!"

He hugged Huo Zheng's waist, and when he looked up at people, his eyes were so intimate that Huo Zheng's neck turned red.The candlelight was dim, but he couldn't see his embarrassment, he pushed Bai Xi away with a little force, "Sister-in-law, don't do this again."

"Why?" Bai Xi realized with pure intuition that Huo Zheng was deliberately keeping a distance from him, her brows and eyes drooped pitifully, and asked lonely: "Why don't you let me touch you? Zhengzheng, do you hate me?"

His demeanor is innocent, and he doesn't look like a liar.Huo Zheng lowered his face and said in a more serious tone: "You are my sister-in-law."

Huo Zheng talked about one sister-in-law, and Bai Xi's head was confused by "sister-in-law", "My name is not sister-in-law, why do you always call me like this? I have a name."

Huo Zheng turned his back, seeing that he was about to go out, Bai Xi hurriedly said, "My name is Bai Xi, not sister-in-law."

He spoke hastily, at first glance it sounds like there is no difference between Bai Xi and Bai Xi'er, Huo Zheng just thought he was messing around, went outside the house and carefully closed the door, and said to him through the door: "It's late at night, Sister-in-law, rest well."

The shadow reflected on the door paper completely went away and disappeared, Bai Xi stared at the door in despair, wondering why Huo Zheng's expression suddenly changed to a cold one, did he do something wrong or was he not obedient enough?He was still puzzled by his thoughts, hesitantly wanted to go out and find Huo Zheng to follow him, and he was afraid of making him angry, after struggling with his eyelids, he could no longer support his eyelids, and fell asleep on the hard bed with the quilt rolled up.

The next day, Bai Xi woke up by himself. He searched around the house and found Huo Zheng. He was a little flustered, and hurriedly opened the door to go out to find someone. There was no one in the main house, but the eerie coffin was still there.

He kept calling Huo Zheng around the house, but he couldn't find anyone, so he ran out of the house.

There is a threshold under each door in Huo's courtyard, Bai Xi runs in a hurry, and can't see clearly what is in front of him, is knocked over by the threshold and falls forward, hands and feet on the ground, crying in pain, breathing in a low voice.

When he got up, Huo Zheng just came back from the outside. He saw the person lying under the door, put down the big iron pick in his hand, and stepped forward to help Bai Xi up.

"Where have you been?" Bai Xi asked cautiously, remembering what happened to Huo Zheng last night when he was angry, and was afraid that saying the wrong thing would offend him.

Huo Zheng looked back from the ground. At this moment, there was no shoe on the white thin feet. The white and tender feet were stepping on the muddy ground. They were different from the rough feet of ordinary people who often went to the fields to do farm work. They were round and lovely, and the skin on the insteps was soft. White and slippery, he glanced back inadvertently, not daring to look any further.

Bai Xi was still wearing a red wedding gown, her hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, her face makeup was wiped off with a handkerchief last night, the exposed face was delicate and smooth, her eyes were fresh, her lips were red and her teeth were white. Huo Zheng subconsciously held his breath, and suddenly replaced him His elder brother felt sorry.

The little sister-in-law in front of him is the most beautiful woman Huo Zheng has ever seen in his life.It's a pity that his elder brother left early, if Huo Qianjun was still around, and married such a beautiful young lady to accompany him, his life would not be in vain.

"Sister-in-law." Huo Zheng said in a slow tone, "You have married my elder brother. Since you are a member of the Huo family, although the Huo family is in decline, as the elder brother's younger brother, I will definitely take good care of you for him. As long as I am here , will never let you be hungry and cold, or suffer wronged."

Bai Xi didn't understand the relationship Huo Zheng's words referred to, and subconsciously thought that Huo Zheng was treating him well alone. It is easy to arouse pity in a man's heart.

"Zhengzheng, you are so kind to me."

Huo Zheng glanced away at him, his tone turned cold for no reason, "Don't call me like that again, my name is Huo Zheng."

Huo Zheng waited in the mourning hall for a whole night. Before dawn, he picked up the iron pick and stepped on the dew to find a place to bury Huo Qianjun.He has always done things neatly, and it was too early after the grave was dug, and he even remembered Bai Xi at home.

Thinking that his sister-in-law would be afraid if she was left alone at home, she hurried back.Huo Zheng cherishes family affection, his elder brother is gone and his sister-in-law is his relative.He will take care of 'her' and respect her, but he doesn't want his sister-in-law to call him by his name intimately.

Not to mention the simplicity of the village, no matter how close the two people are, they will never be able to hold back such words.Huo Zheng looked at the coffin, dropped his knees and slammed his head three times, and walked out of the main house without looking back. After half a cup of tea, he pushed a wooden cart into the yard, and Bai Xi followed him around. Huo Zheng lifted the coffin in an instant, placed it on the wooden cart, turned back to the house, took the sacrifices he bought yesterday, pushed the cart, and went up the mountain without saying a word.

Bai Xi watched the person leave, lowered his head, picked up the shoes and put them on, staggered and ran out to follow, Huo Zheng kept a stern face, scared him into silence, and didn't dare to yell again.

At dawn, roosters crowed one after another, smoke continued, and the mountains and fields became lively.Bai Xi followed Huo Zheng up the mountain to the dug grave. With great strength, Huo Zheng lifted the entire coffin, placed it in the dug grave, filled it with soil and erected a monument to worship.

As the sun rises, the mist surrounding the mountains gradually dissipates, and the field of vision becomes broad and clear.

Huo Zheng was sweating profusely, his chin clotted, and Bai Xi stretched out his hand to dry him off. As soon as the idea came up, Huo Zheng turned his head to look at him, and stopped his move with a cold look.

After staying on the mountain for nearly an hour, the sun rose when descending the mountain, and villagers came up the mountain one after another.Looking from the mountainside, you can see the villagers working in the field in the distance. The white mountain birds are flying in the field ridges to look for food. The mountains are surrounded by mountains. Occasionally, a villager's shout echoes in the mountains for a long time, and it is also shocking. The birds flapped their wings and fled.

Huo Zheng had long legs and wide strides, and the steep mountain road had no effect on him, but Bai Xi couldn't be as calm and unrestrained as he was. Huo Zheng walked fast, he didn't want to fall, he kept pace chaotically, sometimes raised his head and lowered his head, his vision Clear and blurry.

He can see things in the distance clearly, but he can see things in front of him blurry. The stones in the mountain road hurt the soles of his feet. Bai Xi stepped on the raised skirt, panicked and fell forward.

Huo Zheng turned his head when he heard the sound, and quickly helped him stabilize.

"Clank..." Bai Xi called him weakly, a little annoyed, "I walked too slowly."

He was in a mess, and his clothes had a lot of grass blade hooks.When I woke up in the morning, I was exhausted from the two hours on the mountain. I was tired and hungry, and my eyes were dizzy.

The shoes were worn out, Huo Zheng asked him, "Can you still walk?"

"Yes!" Bai Xi replied loudly, Huo Zheng didn't say a word, he gradually lowered his head under the dark gaze of the other party, his momentum was completely vented, his fingers hooked his sleeves, and whispered: "I can't..."

Feet hurt.

"You go first, I can keep up."

When Bai Xi heard Huo Zheng sigh to the sky, he felt helpless, and his tongue tied up, "You, you go back first, I'll leave later." In fact, Bai Xi didn't even know how to go back, I was really afraid Huo Zheng threw him down right there, urging him to leave first, but his fingers kept grabbing his sleeves tightly.

What a rascal.

Huo Zheng squatted down and said in a flat tone, "There is still a way to the foot of the mountain, and I will put you down when we reach the foot of the mountain."

When Bai Xi put his back on his back, Huo Zheng's hands didn't seem to be his own. He imagined that he was carrying a piece of wood on his back, but it seemed that no piece of wood was so soft.

He closed his eyes and thought nothing of it.

When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Huo Zheng really put Bai Xi down. He was sweating heavily, and he didn't want to smoke the other party. When he was walking in front, Bai Xi suddenly grabbed his arm.

Looking down at the white and slender hands, "Sister-in-law, let go."

Bai Xi replied hesitantly, and said in a tone that only Huo Zheng could hear: "Zhengzheng, I will treat you very well."
