depend on for life

After lunch, Mo Yi sat in the courtyard smoking a pipe.

Chen Shixi finished drinking the chicken soup, put the food box on his lap, and pushed the wheelchair to go out.

Mo Yi called out: "Boy, are you going to Xiao's house like this?"

"Can't it?" Chen Shixi wondered.

"Of course not! Let me ask you, what is your relationship with Miss Jinyi now? How did Mr. Xiao pass the test? What would the neighbors say when they saw it?"

After listening to Chen Shixi, he thought to himself that ancient times were troublesome, and the relationship between good friends had to be so complicated.

After thinking about it, I decided to put down the food box and let Granny Zhang return it to Xiao Jinyi.

"Boy, you're already 24 years old, and it's time for you to marry a daughter-in-law and start a family." Mo Yi never forgot the conversation with Chen Shishi that night by the river.

When Chen Shixi heard the words, he remained silent.

She really wants to have a home and a lover of her own.She used to think about the appearance of that person in the future, but the words that always appeared in her mind were gentle, beautiful, kind, etc. These words are difficult to put on men, and she probably has no feelings for men. On the contrary, she has no feelings for girls. There is infinite tenderness and desire to protect.She does not reject homosexuality, and feelings do not distinguish between genders. The two comrades she knows are same-sex couples.

But, can she find a woman here?Modern times are not open enough, let alone ancient times.

"What are you thinking about, thinking about it for so long?" Mo Yi asked.

"I was thinking, I am alone now, how should I settle down in Xinghua Village?"

In any case, earning a living is the priority.

"I accept you as a closed disciple, can't you make a living?" Mo Yi still did not give up the idea of ​​accepting Chen Shiyi as his apprentice.

Chen Shiyi shook her head, studying medicine, she is really not that material.

"Then what can you do?"

"Farming, cooking, raising pigs, cattle, dogs, flowers and grass, carpentry, building houses, etc. I can do all these." She can also shoot and fight to catch bad people who violate the law, haha!

"Can you make money from what you said? In addition to cooking, the men in Xinghua Village are basically good at raising pigs, cattle, dogs, flowers, grass, carpentry, and building houses. Farming, do you have money to buy fields? What's more, in today's peaceful and prosperous age, Xinghua There is no one to sell or idle land in Huacun. Cooking, do you still want to be a chef in a restaurant? Let me tell you, there is only one small inn in Xinghua Village, and they don’t hire chefs, the husband and wife manage it by themselves.”

"There is no idle land. What about the land of Dr. Mo's family? I see that your family doesn't have farm tools or anything like that."

"The old man has rented out the land. The ten-year lease expires at the end of this year. If you want to farm, I can rent the land to you next year. However, it is not your own property after all. It is still very difficult to support a family, marry a wife and have children! "

"I usually go to the mountains to collect firewood and hunt, and I should be able to survive." Marrying a wife and having children, Chen Shiyi automatically ignored it.

"Eleventh, aren't you motivated?" Mo Yi hated iron for not being steel.

Chen Shixixin said that when she was in the army, she was very self-motivated, eager to make contributions, and achieved a lot of achievements. Now that she has retired from the military and traveled through life and death many times, some things have long been looked down upon. of.

"No!" Chen Shixi said with a smile.

Mo Yi blew his beard and stared angrily: "If you were my son, the old man would definitely beat you with a note!"

"In Shishi's heart, he has long regarded Doctor Mo, Granny Zhang, as a father and mother." Chen Shishi said sincerely.

She was in trouble in ancient times, and it was Dr. Mo Zhang's mother-in-law who took her in to treat her, and she was sincere to her, so she was very respectful and grateful to the second elder.

Mo Yi's nose was suddenly soured by Chen Shishi's words, and then he smiled and said: "That's not okay, if you treat me like a father, wouldn't you and girl Jinyi be a generation behind? Your grandfather is also fine, I think, you can be the grandson of Granny Zhang and me!"

"Okay, grandpa!" Chen Shiyi followed suit.

"Oh, dear grandson!" Mo Yi responded immediately, grinning from ear to ear: "Then it's settled, you, Chen Shishi, are my grandson, Mo Yi, and I have to go to the village chief and get him This identity is settled."

After finishing speaking, Mo Yi hurried out the door.

Granny Zhang was making medicine for Chen Shiyi in the kitchen, and when she heard the conversation between Shiyi and Mo Yi, she couldn't help but shed tears: "Gu'er, did you bring Shiyi to us because you were afraid that we two would be lonely?" ?”

After the medicine was boiled and warmed up, Granny Zhang came out with the medicine and said to Chen Shishi: "Shishi, come, drink the medicine!"

"Thank you mother-in-law!" Chen Shixi thanked after taking the medicine.

"Eleventh, you already call the old man grandpa, why do you still call me mother-in-law?"

Chen Shixi immediately changed his words and called out, "Thank you grandma!"

"Well, dear grandson, if the medicine is bitter, grandma left some candied fruit for you, it's so sweet!"

Granny Zhang was holding a sugar packet in her trembling hand, and she peeled off the sugar wrapper to reveal some candied fruit.

Chen Shixi drank the medicine, took the sugar packet, and put a candied fruit into his mouth, his sweet heart almost melted.

"Grandson, is it sweet?" Granny Zhang asked expectantly.

"Grandma, sweet!" Chen Shiyi replied loudly.At this moment, warmth lingered in her heart. It turned out that the feeling of having a family was so warm.

Granny Zhang smiled happily, touched Chen Shishi's hat brim, her eyes were far away, and her eye sockets gradually became moist again.

He thought to himself, if Gu'er hadn't left home back then, married a wife and had a child earlier, the child must have been as old as Shi Shi's child.

Chen Shixi knew that Granny Zhang was missing Mo Gu, so he changed the subject and said, "Grandma, grandpa said to go to the village head to get me identified, is this easy?"

"It's easy, it's very easy! The village chief is your grandpa's brother. In a word, you are from our Xinghua Village on Eleventh. You are the grandson of me and your grandpa. Gu'er has never been together in these years." News, the patriarch brother is afraid that your grandfather's line will be broken, and he has always wanted to adopt a nephew from his house to your grandfather's knee, but your grandfather has refused. Eleven, your grandfather has a weird temper and easily despises a People, so he really likes you when he recognizes you as his grandson."

After listening to Granny Zhang's words, Chen Shixi felt a little ashamed, and her confession of relatives this time was more or less impure.

"Grandma, I will definitely stay in Xinghua Village on Eleventh, and take care of you and grandpa when you grow old."

This is her promise, if a soldier promises, the five mountains are the lightest!
