Ma Yu naturally knew what had happened to his body. He loosened Yao Yan's hand slightly, and coughed, "...I, I can't control myself."

Hearing this, Yao Yan turned his head and looked at him with a smile in his eyes, "Is it really beyond my control?"

"Ahem," Ma Yu looked at the roof, and began to change the topic, "I have to go to Brother Hu's house to help out tomorrow morning, we have to rest early."

Saying that, the hand that had just been released sneaked over again. After realizing that Yao Yan did not resist, Ma Yu couldn't help but curled his lips and locked him in his arms. The reaction was embarrassment, and at this moment Ma Yu was clearly showing off.

How normal it is to react to someone you love.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was justified. Taking advantage of Yao Yan's daze, Ma Yu deliberately pushed him up.

Yao Yan, who was suddenly sober, opened his eyes, took a deep breath, reached out and groped around Ma Yu's waist, then pinched a small piece of flesh and twisted it gently!

"Ouch!"

Ma Yu hurriedly begged for mercy, saying that he would not commit another crime.

Seeing this, Yao Yan let go, closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while, feeling the man's careful embrace, he sighed again, "What do you think of the first day of the new year?"

Ma Yu was taken aback for a moment, then he was overjoyed, hugged Yao Yan and nodded happily, "Very good!"

Suddenly, Ma Yu had hope.

The next day, Ma Yu got up early to clean the pot and prepare to make porridge. Blacksmith Wen got up after hearing the noise, and couldn't sleep at all. The room he lives in now was specially cleaned out by Uncle Ma. Although it is not big, But it's no problem to live alone in Wen Tiejiang, and there is everything in the house, Wen Tiejiang doesn't feel shabby at all.

"Father, how many days are there until the first day of the new year?"

With a big smile on his face, Ma Yu grinned and asked after seeing Tiejiang Wen.

Tiejiang Wen twitched his mouth, looked at his stupidity, and said with disdain, "Are you stupid? You don't even know the sun!"

Ma Yu chuckled, feeling that Tiejiang Wen didn't understand his happiness and expectations at all. When Yao Yan got up, he saw Ma Yu chasing Uncle Ma and asking, "Father, how many days are there until the first day of the new year?"

Yao Yan: ...

Uncle Ma disliked his own son even more than Blacksmith Wen, "I don't know, I don't know, things that you don't know, can I know?"

After finishing speaking, he left him and went to wash his face by himself.

Ma Yu, who was left behind, didn't feel sad at all. When he turned around and saw Yao Yan, he approached courteously, "Brother Yan, there are still five days before the first day of the new year, why don't you sleep a little longer? Really, what are you doing these days?" It passed so slowly, five days, really long."

He smacked his mouth, looking so impatient that Yao Yan's eyebrows jumped.

Talking upside down, the whole thing is a fool.

But Yao Yan still held back his temper, and said softly, "We still have to help Big Brother Hu and the others slaughter New Year's pigs today, so don't go to someone's house and keep asking when is the first day of the new year."

Ma Yu: ...he really has that plan.

I always feel that the days I calculated are not real, and I need to ask others more to feel at ease.

"Besides, you keep asking about that day, if others also ask why you miss that day, what do you say?"

After Yao Yan finished speaking, he went to tidy himself up, leaving Ma Yu frowning on the spot.

That's right, that day was a good day for him and Yao Yan, and he had to hide it secretly so that no one would find out what would happen that day.

After Ma Yu figured it out, he no longer foolishly asked people how long it was until the first day of the new year.

After Ma Yu and Yao Yan went to Hu's house, Tiejiang Wen said to Uncle Ma, who was already smoking tobacco, "This kid is not good enough. It must be that Sanlang promised what will happen on the first day of the new year, so he is thinking about it." thinking about it."

Uncle Ma exhaled a puff of smoke, squinted his eyes and sighed softly, "They are still too young, and I don't know if they will be able to withstand the eyes of the world in the future."

"It's good to be at your own pace." Tiejiang Wen didn't worry about this. He looked at Uncle Ma and said with a smile, "A person lives for himself all his life, not for the eyes and words of outsiders."

"Brother, I am ashamed of what I said." Uncle Ma put down the pipe, looked at the yard and remembered his marriage with Madam Ma, "If I had understood earlier, I would not have harmed others or myself."

Hu's slaughter Nianzhu only invited three people, two of them were Ma Yu and Yao Yan, and one was Li Ting's cousin Li Li. Li Li looked somewhat similar to Li Ting, but his body was stronger and his speech was very powerful.

Brother Hu was the one who did the trick, he was very courageous, and besides, this year it was the year of slaughtering pigs, the least amount of red envelopes to ask a butcher to come was [-] Wen, Brother Hu felt that it would be better to do it by himself.

Fortunately, there were so many people, the pigs were killed in two or three strokes, and the next step was to trim and cut the meat, which were all delicate tasks. Brother Hu was a novice, so naturally it was even slower.

At this moment, the women were busy working in the stove, and the men in the yard started chatting whether they were busy or not.

As we talked, we talked about Li Ting.

"I'm leaving town after the next year."

Speaking of Li Ting, Li Li replied.

The story of Li Ting's injury was spread all over the village. Some people said that Li Ting was wronged by the doctor and he was retaliated against. Created by jealousy.

"Why is this?"

Brother Hu was shocked.

After all, Li Ting was under the tutelage of old doctor Huang, and the other party was an old doctor in the town, so he was worthy of the trust of the people around the town. If there were no accidents, Li Ting would replace old doctor Huang and stay in the town after leaving the teacher.

Ma Yu remembered what Li Ting said to him that day with blank eyes, and immediately looked at Yao Yan, who happened to be looking at him, and the two looked at each other, Yao Yan smiled at him, Ma Yu didn't worry about anything immediately.

Their way will be easy.

"Yeah, why did you leave the town when you were fine?"

Brother Hu frowned, stopped and looked over, "Could it be that the beater forced him to leave?"

But this is not right, the Li family said that the perpetrator committed the crime at night, Li Ting did not see the appearance of the man clearly, even reporting to the police would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

If the perpetrator forced Li Ting to leave the town, would he not be allowed to appear?

Li Li shook his head, "No, old doctor Huang felt that he was old and had finished teaching what he should teach, so he wrote a letter and asked Li Ting to go to the county to find his uncle. Come back."

That sounds like a good thing.

Ma Yu silently rubbed against Yao Yan again.

He didn't stop until the distance between the two disappeared.

After lunch, a group of people sat around the fire to keep warm.

Mrs. Hu's eyesight is getting worse and worse, but she is still very kind to Yao Yan. During the period, she asked him about building a house. .”

Hearing this, Ma Yu said quickly, "Brother Yan is not in a hurry now, my father and father both like him very much, living at home is very happy, my father is happy, and I am also happy."

"No matter how happy you are, you can't live forever." Brother Hu looked at Yao Yan after drinking some wine, "Sanlang, you are not too young, you live in your brother's house, don't talk about what outsiders think, you have to do something for your own future When you are talking about a lady, how will others introduce you? There is no house at all."

Yao Yan replied with a slight smile, "The matter of the house is not in a hurry. I plan to start a small business with Brother Ma in the next year. When I have money, I will build the house bigger and lower. Then my aunt will have to live in it." .”

Mrs. Hu laughed when she heard it, and she responded again and again, and the chatter in this house just passed away.

After coming out of Hu's house, the two went to Yao Yan's original foundation to have a look.

"This place is too small, and rebuilding is not a problem," Ma Yu said with a sullen face, "It's better to build this place into a ancestral hall, and we will come here to offer incense to Uncle Yao every year and festival, as a filial piety."

"Then where should I build the house?"

Yao Yan raised his eyebrows and asked.

Ma Yu turned around and walked to him, suddenly took Yao Yan's hand and put it on his heart, "It's built here, don't go anywhere."

Yao Yan's ears were slightly red, and he drew a circle on Ma Yu's heart, "I'm not afraid of being squeezed."

"Why is it crowded?" Ma Yu laughed sullenly, grabbed Yao Yan's hand, leaned over to his ear and said, "You are the only one, there is still room for you to roll around."

"Who's going to roll over!" Yao Yan yelled, and after hearing the movement from the Hu family, he pushed Ma Yu lightly. Ma Yu sighed slightly, took a step back, looked at him and said, "I've wronged you."

Yao Yan stared at him and said, "The world is like this, it is a great fortune to meet you, everything else is trivial."

Ma Yu pursed his lips and said hoarsely, "Sooner or later, I will let them know that you are mine."

"I believe you," Yao Yan blinked.

Ma Yu was so rare that he took him home. Tiejiang Wen and Uncle Ma were not there. As soon as Ma Yu and Yao Yan entered the room, they pressed each other against the door. He raised his hand and rubbed against Yao Yan with reddish eyes. lips.

"Brother Yan..."

Yao Yan smiled slightly, stretched out his arms to wrap around Ma Yu's neck, Ma Yu tightened his hands, and pressed down...

When Blacksmith Wen and Uncle Ma came back from a walk, they saw Ma Yu happily cleaning the yard humming an out-of-tune tune.

"I'm back, Dad, Dad."

Hearing the movement at the gate of the courtyard, Ma Yu said something without raising his head, and continued humming.

Seeing this, Uncle Ma and Tiejiang Wen looked at each other the same way, Tiejiang Wen coughed, searched the yard for Yao Yan, and asked, "Where is Sanlang?"

"Sanlang is tired today, I'll let him rest more," Ma Yu thought of Yao Yan's slightly swollen lips, and immediately felt guilty, he coughed and replied.

Seeing his cowardly look, Uncle Ma knew something was tricky, but he didn't ask in detail, he just asked whether the Hu family's pigs were fat or not.

"He was very fat, and when he left, he asked us to bring back a piece of meat. We felt ashamed, so we refused," Ma Yu said with a smile, thinking of the enthusiasm of the Hu family.

"It should be. The pigs were fattened with great difficulty, and the Hu family has two brothers. They have to carry the meat when they leave the father-in-law. The rest of the family will eat enough for a year," Wen Tiejiang said.

"That's the reason," Uncle Ma nodded, but when he looked at the pigsty, his heart was also moved. Under the care of Ma Yu and Yao Yan, his body has improved a lot, and he has something to say Wen Blacksmith, who walks around every day, sweeps the yard, cooks and raises chickens and rabbits, is fine.

"How about we also raise a pig?"

Ma Yu stopped and looked over, "No need, most of the hogweed goes to the field or the back hillside. Our land is very small, so there must not be much hogweed. My brother and I don't go to the hillside." Don't worry, you should rest well, besides, rabbits are as delicious as chickens, so you don't need to spend so much effort raising pigs."

"Furthermore, I discussed it with Brother Yan, and I think it's okay to buy a new year's pig at the end of the year. Doesn't Uncle Liu's family feed two pigs every year? One is eaten by oneself, and the other is sold out."

Tiejiang Wen felt that it made sense, and persuaded Uncle Ma, "It's all the children's wish, we just accept it."

Uncle Ma didn't have anything else to say, he answered with a smile.

At dinner, Yao Yan came out lingeringly, the swelling has disappeared, even if there is a low and broken skin, you can't see it unless you look carefully.

At the dinner table, Ma Yu served Yao Yan attentively. Uncle Ma and Blacksmith Wen exchanged glances. After a quick meal, they went to the fire room to keep warm, leaving Ma Yu and Yao Yan still at the dinner table.

Immediately, Yao Yan lost his previous good look, and stared at Ma Yu without saying a word.

Ma Yu knew he was wrong, so he quickly coaxed, "Isn't it too long? There will be no next time."

Ghosts believe.

Yao Yan snorted, "I think the first day of the new year is too early..."

"Not early, not early," Ma Yu shook his head like a rattle, "My good brother, don't torture me."

Yao Yan chuckled, stretched out his hand and poked Ma Yu's forehead, and the matter was over.

On New Year's Eve, Yao Yan and Ma Yu worked together in the kitchen, cooking a large table of delicacies, and Wen Tiejiang took out the wine he had kept for several years and filled it up for everyone.

"This is the happiest year I've ever had."

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Tiejiang Wen looked at them with reddish eye circles and said.

Uncle Ma understood very well, he stretched out his hand and patted Blacksmith Wen on the shoulder, "This will be the case every year from now on."

"It's like this every year, every year!" Blacksmith Wen nodded vigorously.

Ma Yu and Yao Yan looked at each other, they picked up the wine, knelt down in front of Uncle Ma and Blacksmith Wen, and raised the wine.

"Father, daddy, my younger brother and I will toast you."

After finishing speaking, he and Yao Yan drank the wine in their hands. Uncle Ma and Blacksmith Wen smiled at each other, drank the wine in their hands, and then stretched out their hands.

"Good boy," Uncle Ma hurriedly went to help Yao Yan, "We are all one family, don't be restrained."

"Yes, we are all one family," Wen Tiejiang went to help Ma Yu.

This is a kind of recognition, Yao Yan's heart was warm, he looked at Uncle Ma and Blacksmith Wen, and called out, "Thank you daddy, daddy."

Uncle Ma and Tiejiang Wen only felt that it was different from what Ma Yu called them, so the corners of their mouths turned up involuntarily, and the eyes they looked at Yao Yan were also very loving and gentle.

Then Ma Yu toasted Yao Yan again.

"Please advise me for the rest of my life."

Ma Yu heard Yao Yan say this, and he kept it in his heart.

Under the watchful eyes of Tiejiang Wen and Uncle Ma, Yao Yan blushed and drank the glass of wine.

After clearing away the dishes, the family sat by the fire and listened to Uncle Ma talking about the past, "The lady asked me to carve a picture of Avalokitesvara delivering a child, saying that it would be picked up in three days, and I carved it as required. After it was finished, no one came to pick it up after three days, I thought it was because the nobleman had forgotten things, but I didn't want to find out on the fourth day that the noble lady had passed away, and she died in a very miserable state."

"After the noble master was sad, he checked his wife's recent movements, and it happened that the only place he went to was our shop, so he came over, first asked me to hand over the things my wife wanted, and then asked me a lot of things, I felt something was wrong at the time, and when I thought of the mechanism under that picture, I just felt that disaster was coming."

Uncle Ma sighed, "If I don't want to, it really works. The noble master arrested me and threatened me with Ma Yu's life to open the mechanism, but there was nothing in the mechanism, because the lady was killed before she could take the picture."

He couldn't find what he wanted, and his motive for the murder was exposed. Mr. Gui had murderous intentions towards Uncle Ma and his son, but Uncle Ma had superb carving skills and met many nobles. Persuade.

"He said that as long as we don't show up in the city in this life, he won't attack us. At that time, Ma Yu was only eight years old. After we left Xiaocheng, we went to the city where Uncle Ma Yu lived. We didn't want Uncle Ma Yu to commit crimes a few years ago. , Our house was also confiscated, but I was afraid of leaking the news, so I simply took Ma Yu around and settled here."

"Ma Yu is very talented in carving. He was able to set up mechanisms under the carvings at a young age. Even though I didn't teach him anything later, he figured it out out of curiosity. After I got here, I was not healthy and afraid If someone knows where he is and harms Ma Yu, he will not be allowed to reveal his skills, even if he lives in poverty, there is hope in life."

Master Gui's life can't survive the young man Ma Yu.

Uncle Ma was a small person, he knew the pros and cons of that incident, and if he really wanted to expose Mr. Gui's suspicion of murdering his wife, in the end it wasn't Mr. Gui who died, but their low substitute dead ghosts.

Yao Yan held Ma Yu's hand, and Ma Yu felt guilty when he thought of the thing carved under Yao Yan's dictation. He also said that he was a novice.

"sorry."

After entering the room, Ma Yu bowed his head and stood in front of Yao Yan and said.

"What's wrong with you?"

Yao Yan smiled, pulled the man to sit beside him, and said to Ma Yu's bright eyes, "But you have to listen to me when you carve something in the future. I didn't think so before, but now I hear it, it's in town. The person who inquired about the engraver might not be sure if it was sent by that person, so let's be careful."

"I know," Ma Yu leaned over and kissed Yao Yan's forehead lightly, "I'll listen to you in everything from now on, I'm just here, no."

At this?

where?

When Yao Yan came back to his senses, he was lying in a bowl like a shelled egg, being "slaughtered" by someone over and over again.

The next day, Ma Yu, who was full of food and drink, walked out of the room in good spirits. When he was about to take a broom to clean the yard, he was stopped by the sharp-eyed Uncle Ma, "You can't use a broom on the first day of the new year."

Ma Yu didn't ask why, and happily went to cook again.

They have no relatives here, so they don't have to go to pay New Year's greetings.

But thinking of the Hu family's care for Yao Yan, he wondered if he should go to the Hu family for a walk?

This idea was approved by Uncle Ma, "It should be like this, Sanlang is such a good boy, thanks to Mrs. Hu's good teaching."

"Yao Yan is just fine," Ma Yu snorted.

Glancing at Ma Yu, who was protecting her husband, Uncle Ma just didn't notice, so he left.

When Tiejiang Wen came out of the room, he saw Uncle Ma going out for a walk, so he hurriedly called someone to stop him, washed his face briefly, and followed.

Walking has become their habit, and they have to go sooner or later, even if it is cold now.

When Yao Yan woke up, he felt that his body was no longer his own, and he couldn't control it at all.

"Brother Yan, come, let me wash your face."

Uncle Ma who brought the hot water basin helped Yao Yan up, wrung the handkerchief and wiped it on Yao Yan's face. Yao Yan enjoyed his service and asked casually, "What time is it?"

Ma Yuqing coughed, "It's afternoon."

"It's afternoon?!"

Yao Yan's eyes widened, and he wanted to sit up straight, but felt that someone was uncomfortable, so he could only stare at someone, "It's all your fault!"

Doesn't this let Uncle Ma and the others know what the two of them did last night?

"Ahem, it's my fault, my fault, come and have porridge."

Ma Yu put down the handkerchief and brought the porridge again, but Yao Yan didn't drink it, so he asked Ma Yu to help him to wash up, and then nestled in the fire room while warming up while drinking, just after he finished drinking, Uncle Ma and the others came back.

"This year is really lively. The aunt of Huang's family in the east of the village happened to have her birthday today, and the firecrackers were set off louder and louder. It stands to reason that we should also give gifts," Uncle Ma said.

"Aunt Huang doesn't like to be lively. Every year on her birthday, she only invites people who are close to her family. It would be embarrassing for us to go." Ma Yu had already inquired about the birthdays of the older generation in the village, so he naturally knew about the Huang family. Son.

"So that's how it is," said Uncle Ma thankfully that he didn't get overwhelmed and went straight over.

Blacksmith Wen was also very fortunate.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, Yao Yan and Ma Yu went to Hu's family to pay New Year's greetings with gifts. This was Yao Yan's first visit to the house to pay New Year's greetings, and the Hu family was overjoyed.

After staying at Hu's house for a day, they returned home with gifts in return.

When I opened it, there was a piece of bacon inside, which was very appetizing.

"This Hu family is upright," Tiejiang Wen sighed.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, Yao Yan and Ma Yu went to the town. When they reached the door of the shop, they saw that their shop was closed on this street.

The cloth shop opposite has already opened the door.

Xiao Ding ran over after seeing them. It snowed heavily from the second day of junior high school until the seventh day of junior high school, that is, yesterday.

"It's snowed for so many days, I thought you would wait for a few days before coming," Xiao Ding said, shaking his hands.

"The road from the village to the town is cleared every day, and it doesn't take much time. When did the cloth village open?" Yao Yan was also very cold, even though he wrapped himself in a ball.

"The door opened on the fifth day of the lunar new year," Xiao Ding pursed his lips. "There is no business until today. The shopkeeper Wang said that I will watch the shop this month, and my relatives have not come."

This is a bit like shopkeeper Wang's usual style.

The door of the shop was opened by Ma Yu three times, and soon he went to the backyard to light a fire and let Yao Yan sit by the fire to keep warm, and then Ma Yu cleaned up the snow in the yard, and then cleaned up the house in the backyard and the shop in front .

There is no need for Yao Yan to do anything.

Even the lunch was made by Ma Yu himself, and they brought a lot of vegetables and meat to the town, which would not spoil if left alone for the day.

The bacon is boiled and cut, and it melts in the mouth. Ma Yu's knife is good, and each slice is the same thickness. Yao Yan is very addicted to eating.

Just after eating, when the two were enjoying the hot tea by the fire, a young man in a blue padded jacket came to the shop, his eyes were red and he looked at them with a pale face, "Can you tell me, where is Li Ting? "
