talk about wine

When Zhou Qingwu returned to his room again, he brought dinner.Dinner is still very simple, no different from lunch, a bowl of porridge, wild vegetable soup and a piece of cake.

Zhou Qingwu was a little embarrassed, and she gestured shyly: I don't have time to prepare today, so I can only make do with it.

Meng Chuxi shook her head: "It's okay, but you can't just eat wild vegetables this time."

At Meng Chuxi's insistence, the two shared the simple dinner together.The taste of wild vegetables is indeed very bad. The wild vegetables with only salt are a bit bitter and have thick fibers.

Meng Chuxi, who was eating wild vegetables, couldn't help but feel sorry for Zhou Qingwu, but the little girl looked very sweet when eating wild vegetables. When she was drinking white rice porridge, her eyebrows were raised unconsciously, and her eyelashes fluttered and danced with joyful light. Without much expression, Meng Chuxi could feel her satisfaction.

However, the coarse-grain cake tasted pretty good. Although it was not finely made, Zhou Qingwu re-roasted it with charcoal fire, so the outer skin was crispy and smelled delicious.Even though the cakes are not baked with modern delicious seasonings, they have the original fragrance of grains, which become more delicious with chewing.

Meng Chuxi could see Zhou Qingwu's mood, and the little girl was also keenly aware that Meng Chuxi liked this coarse-grain cake, so she couldn't help but gesture and say: "This is given to me by Aunt Liu, do you like it?"

Meng Chuxi only guessed that the cake was given by someone else, and couldn't understand the name of the person she was gesticulating, so she smiled warmly and said, "I like it, who gave it to you?" Finally seeing a little kindness towards this girl, Meng Chuxi couldn't help but understand .

She stretched out her hand and watched Zhou Qingwu write slowly.After finishing writing, the little girl gestured again: she is my neighbor, who treats me very well, and is different from them.

Meng Chuxi wrote it down silently, and patted Zhou Qingwu's head: "People who treat Qingwu well must be those who are blessed."

Zhou Qingwu paused suddenly, unable to tell what it was like.Everyone in the village said that if they were kind to her, anyone who got close to her would have bad luck. Only Meng Chuxi said so.Although she knew that these were words of comfort, this gentle comfort still warmed her desolate and lonely heart.

In order not to disturb the little girl's meal, Meng Chuxi stopped talking, and the two of them prepared to rest after finishing this very sumptuous dinner for Zhou Qingwu.

After Zhou Qingwu finished washing himself, he used the wooden tub at home to bring hot water into the room.

Meng Chuxi recovered much faster than expected, and her energy and energy improved a lot in just two days.But physical pain is always slow. She only has a layer of blood scab on the incision on her waist now, and she dared not stand up in the ancient times without sutures, so Zhou Qingwu wiped her body hastily for her last night, enduring her embarrassment .

Meng Chuxi loves to be clean. She used to take a bath every day. Now her body doesn't allow her to do anything, but she must wipe her body.But she was still a little embarrassed, because Zhou Qingwu had to twist the veil for her.

Zhou Qingwu's little face was also a little flushed, and he turned his back and waited for Meng Chuxi to wipe it off before changing the veil for her.During this process, there was only the sound of splashing water when the handkerchief was twisted, and the two of them didn't make a sound because of this small embarrassment.

Fortunately, it ended soon. The ancients worked during the day and had no entertainment at night. It was already very late at this point.Meng Chuxi was already yawning from weakness, Zhou Qingwu silently went to the utility room to hug a roll of worn-out straw mats.

Meng Chuxi froze with sleepy eyes, and then said in surprise, "Qingwu, what are you going to do?"

Zhou Qingwu bit his lip, pointed to the bed and gestured: This is the only bed at home.

The straw mat looks a bit old, and the floor is not the modern wooden floor that is moisture-proof, and Zhou Qingwu's house certainly doesn't have many mattresses, so how can this floor be comfortable.

Meng Chuxi frowned, then reached out and patted her side: "This bed is big enough, you sleep with me."

Zhou Qingwu's eyes widened, his face flushed slightly, he regained his composure and continued to wave his hands: I'm afraid I'll touch your wound.Fearing that something might happen to Meng Chuxi before, she didn't sleep much, she just wrapped herself in a quilt and rested on her stomach.

Meng Chuxi barely supported her body and moved: "You won't touch the wound on my right side when you sleep, huh?"

Seeing that Zhou Qingwu was still hesitating, Meng Chuxi glanced at her and said with a smile: "Your small body won't take up a lot of space, come up."

Zhou Qingwu hesitated a little, but in the end he put away the mat, hugged another quilt and carefully spread it inside, and finally took a look at Meng Chuxi to indicate that the light was about to be turned off, and then blew out the dim oil lamp.

The only light source in the house was blown out, and everything in the house fell into darkness.The night in the countryside is very quiet, and all the movements around are magnified.I don't know if it was the wind or something outside the house, but it touched the branches and made a slight sound, together with the sound of Zhou Qingwu's rustling undress inside the house, they could all be heard clearly.

Because it was too dark, her outline was a little fuzzy, only the soft sound of clothes rubbing and footsteps approaching from there, so the outline began to become clear, and then one hand carefully touched the bed.Because he couldn't see, Zhou Qingwu was also afraid of bumping into Meng Chuxi, so he was very careful.

Meng Chuxi let out a chuckle through her nasal cavity, stretched out her hand to hold her hand, and took her to touch the place where she was staying, and said in a warm voice, "I'm here, you can just go up here, don't worry about stepping on me."

She held Zhou Qingwu's hand, and curled up his fingers.Now Meng Chuxi's fingers are no longer cold, and her warm and soft hands are very delicate, not her rough and thin appearance at all. While Zhou Qingwu feels warm, he also feels a little inferior.

When her feet passed Meng Chuxi safely, Zhou Qingwu quickly withdrew her hands. She nestled quietly into her bed, and Meng Chuxi beside her could not feel much movement.

After lying down, a small hand stretched out, tapped her shoulder with a thumb, and retracted as if shy.

"You're welcome, good night." Meng Chuxi raised the corner of her mouth and said in a low voice.

A few dogs barking came from a distance outside the house, and the moon hidden behind the cloud poked out from the gap, casting a clear light on the sky and the earth.A few more strands fell into the bedroom, and the two on the bed had already fallen into a good dream.

The next day, Zhou Qingwu, who was lying on the inner side, woke up. She was afraid of crowding Meng Chuxi at night, so she slept very carefully, sticking to the wall.Turning his head, he saw Meng Chuxi sleeping next to him in the misty morning light. She was sleeping very peacefully, with a calm expression on her face. Even with her eyes closed, the gentleness exuding from her was still very clear.

Zhou Qingwu's heart beat a little fast, and this brisk rhythm was due to joy.The person lying next to her was beautiful and warm, but the person she rescued in fear that day became her biggest surprise and warmth in the past few days.She is very different from the people in this village, like a fairy, her words can always soothe the scar in her heart.

And this kind of pleasure is enough for Zhou Qingwu to start today's life full of energy.She wanted to buy some food first, and Zhou Ping snatched her only two cents, so now she had to pay Meng Chuxi's money in advance.

While she was thinking, she bent her back and tiptoedly wanted to get out of bed.Afraid of waking Meng Chuxi up, she leaned on the wall with her hand, first gently stretched out one foot, and waited until it was firmly stepped on quietly, then let go of her hand and leaned over to support the outside of the bed, and moved the other foot.

Her small face was a little red from holding back her strength, and she was about to feel relieved that she had gotten out of bed without a sound, but she felt a slight tremor.

She was a little dazed, and turned her head to see that Meng Chuxi had woken up. She was looking at herself with eyes that had just woken up in the morning. She was covering her waist, holding back a smile, but her body couldn't control her trembling.And his right leg was still straddling her body, stepping on the inside, suddenly, Zhou Qingwu's tense and serious face turned bright red, and he quickly retracted his foot.

Just now how funny he looked, Zhou Qingwu knew very well that the little girl's ears were red from embarrassment, and it took a long time before she quickly gestured: I'm afraid I'll wake you up.

Meng Chuxi held back her smile, but she still had a pleasant smile when she spoke: "Well, I know, you didn't disturb me, but you are so obedient and very cute."

Zhou Qingwu couldn't hold back anymore, he turned his head and hurriedly put on his clothes.Looking at the flustered look of the thin figure, Meng Chuxi felt more and more funny, but she held back thoughtfully.

The well-dressed Zhou Qingwu finally eased the shyness and awkwardness just now, and gestured: You continue to sleep, and I will make breakfast.

The breakfast was even simpler because there was really nothing else, so I cooked gruel, and when Zhou Qingwu finished eating, he boiled the medicine again, and the sun had already risen.She gestured again, and wrote it again in Meng Chuxi's palm: I'm going to the town to buy some things, you stay at home alone, if you're thirsty, there's water here, don't get out of bed.

With a serious face, she told Meng Chuxi earnestly, but Meng Chuxi could only nod in agreement.After Zhou Qingwu left, the house became lonely in an instant, lying down with nothing to do. In this era, there are no mobile phones and computers, and Zhou Qingwu has no books at home. Meng Chuxi was a little uncomfortable at first.However, she was originally a person who liked to be quiet. After lying down quietly, she began to think about her future plans.

Because so far all her knowledge of this place came from Zhou Qingwu, and the two had some communication barriers, so her understanding was very limited.But I probably also know that Zhou Qingwu has no relatives in his family and no source of income. He relies entirely on the little girl to chop firewood and dig herbs for some money.

The gold leaf and the two taels of silver left in their hands are indeed a lot of money for a poor family in a remote mountain village, but they must not sit and eat, they can plan to buy some land and think about some things to make money way.Living is what she needs to do now.

This time Zhou Qingwu went to the town by himself. She was worried that Meng Chuxi would speed up her pace a lot when she was alone at home. After arriving in the town, she went to a grain store in the town first.

It was not only the first time for Zhou Qingwu to come, even though the shop assistants only saw her every few days, this girl still left a deep impression on him.Every time I come to buy not much, and they are all cheap low-grade coarse grains, not to mention that I can't speak.

Moreover, everyone in Zhoujia Village had to come to this town to buy daily necessities, so they knew the rumors about her once they came and went. However, he opened the door to do business, whether it was the nemesis or the evil star, there was no need for him to reject an orphan girl.

"Do you want soybeans this time, or wheat? Here are some old beans, and a bucket costs only twenty yuan."

After hearing this, Zhou Qingwu nodded and bent a finger.Then he pointed to the wooden sign and asked for some more wheat and millet, and even a rare noodle.

The clerk was a little surprised: "This noodles cost 65 renminbi a fight, are you sure?" If all the miscellaneous things were added up, the food would cost nearly a hundred kuai, and the clerk had never seen such a big spend by the dumb girl.A hundred dollars is the expenses of an ordinary family for several days, can she afford it?

Hearing that Zhou Qingwu was silent for a while, but thinking that Meng Chuxi liked the whole grain cake very much, she still gritted her teeth and nodded.

In her opinion, things that are already exquisite may be a big grievance to Meng Chuxi.She had already washed the clothes Meng Chuxi wore when she came, and there was a cut at the waist, but the material was slippery and soft, and the workmanship was exquisite. It was made of silk from the inside to the outside, and the embroidery patterns on it were hidden in the cloth. It shows that the embroiderer's skills are superb, and I'm afraid the best cloth in Qingyun Town can't make that dress.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qingwu remembered that he had to make clothes for Meng Chuxi, and that outfit was obviously not going to work. In Zhoujia Village, those clothes definitely couldn't be worn out.So after temporarily storing the things here, Zhou Qingwu went to the cloth shop.
