Hot as China, cold as snow

one hundred and two

The two of them wobbled and were not in a hurry to leave. They really planned to use the sky as a cover and the earth as a bed, and everywhere was their home.Fortunately, lucky people have their own aspects of the sky. When the sky was just getting dark, the blue spirit fox shouted: "Look, there is a village. There is a place to live, let's go!"

Li'an was dragged obediently by Lan Linghu. As soon as he entered the village, Lan Linghu keenly sensed the feeling of joy. He happily stopped outside a gatehouse, knocked on the door, and Li'an followed him. up.

"Here we come!" came the simple and honest voice of the farmer, followed by the sound of the wooden door being opened: "Second sister's sister-in-law! Didn't it mean that I would get up early tomorrow to deliver it, so why are you here now?"

The person who opened the door was wearing an unlined garment. His face was tanned from years of farming, and there were still some blue stubbles. His hands were rough but thick. When the door opened, the man was stunned, and a voice came from the room. Ask: "Second sister's sister-in-law is here?"

The man turned his head and shouted: "It's not the sister-in-law of the second sister's family." Then he scratched his head honestly and looked at the stranger at the door and asked, "This is it, you two?"

The children in the house ran over curiously when they heard it, and looked through the crack of the door. Before they could talk to Lan Linghu, they yelled: "This is the brother who taught kite flying today, the one who hung the kite on the tree." One!" The man slapped Shi Shi on the head and shouted, "Squat down!"

When Lan Linghu saw that it was the older boy named Shishi, he smiled embarrassedly: "So your family lives here!"

The man understood as soon as he heard it: "I heard from my wife, so it is you two little brothers! Please come in, it's late, and there is only one village around us, Yu's family, they must be here to stay overnight!"

Lan Linghu nodded quickly, yes, the women in the room also opened the curtains when they heard a guest coming, and when they saw that it was daytime, the two smiled, and warmly welcomed them into the room. Just stay here, the visitor is a guest, and this is the day, seeing that the two of you are well-dressed, you must also be sons of a rich family, but the house is shabby, so I'm afraid I'll neglect you all."

Lan Linghu quickly waved his hand: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, I'd like to thank this elder brother and sister-in-law." The sister-in-law looked at Li'an, saw that he didn't speak, and thought it was because of her shabby home, so Lan Linghu elbowed him away. Lian, motioned him to say a few words: "Thank you, big brother and sister-in-law of the Yu family." Lian pointed to the two children who were squatting on the side and wanted to step forward but dared not: "It's just this? They are all children. If it's my brother's fault, don't blame the child."

Only then did Lan Linghu see the little devil who loved to cry during the day squatting against the wall, and his heart ached. He looked pitifully at the sister-in-law of the Yu family, and the sister-in-law of the Yu family was not embarrassed, and said generously: "You two misunderstood. These two children are not for the kite during the day. If the kite is broken, you can buy it again. If the tree grows crooked, it is difficult to correct. Disciplining the children is because the children deceived the adults. The kites were also stolen, and people took advantage of me. Let them be punished if they don’t pay attention to sneaking away, just so that they can understand the truth and not lie when they grow up.”

"I'm laughing at you, the farmer hasn't read any books." The man smiled, and said to the child: "Since someone pleaded for you, I'm here today. It's all right, get up!"

The sister-in-law of the Yu family said: "Hurry up and thank your brothers, you must know how to be grateful."

Goudan, Shi Shi, one big and one small, hurried over and said solemnly: "Thank you, brother." This made Lan Linghu very embarrassed, and quickly said no.After thanking him, Shitou looked at Li'an intelligently and asked: "How do you know my family name is Yu, my father never mentioned my family name?" This question made the four adults a little embarrassed.Lan Linghu didn't come back from the shore, but Lan Linghu said first: "Brother Yu said it himself, there is only one Yujia Village here, isn't Yujia Village not surnamed Yu?"

"Yes, it's Yu." The big man smiled innocently, and the sister-in-law went into the kitchen to serve the dishes: "It's so late, and I'm on my way during the day, I haven't eaten yet! It just so happens that my family just ate, wait, sister-in-law Go get some food for you."

Lan Linghu thanked her, touched her temples and said, "No, no, I called you brother Yu and sister-in-law, just now Shitou also called me brother, wouldn't it be a mess of generations." Coming out of the kitchen with the dishes, I heard: "That's right, Shitou and his younger brother are going to be called two uncles in the future." Hearing their seniority, Li An kept a straight face, and when he heard this, his face became even darker.

At the dinner table, the eldest brother of the Yu family asked: "After talking for a long time, I still don't know the names of the two? Where did you come from? Where are you going?" Talk, don't eat food and ask: "But this food doesn't taste right."

Lan Linghu hurriedly said: "No, no, he's just like this." As he spoke, he stood up boldly and pinched Li'an's face: "Look, he's very talkative, but he can't laugh, ah , withdrawn! Yes, withdrawn. When he was young, no one played with him, and he became like this when he grew up, but he has a cold and kind heart." Lan Linghu said loudly, emboldening himself, he has seen people go crazy offshore, But he was the only one who dared to pinch his face in front of the black-faced offshore, and he yelled, "You're eating!"

Li An's face was dark, but he was very face-saving. After taking a bite, he nodded and said: "It's delicious." Lan Linghu continued: "My name is Lan Ling..."

"His name is Lan Ling. He is my cousin. My name is Li Shore. I come from a far away place and I am going to a far away place."

Just as Lan Linghu was about to protest, he was clearly called Lan Linghu, but Li An secretly pinched him. Lan Linghu could only shut up, but squinted at him and said, "How can you answer other people's questions like this!"

Off shore asked: "Then where do you say we are from?"

Lan Linghu thought about it carefully, and couldn't say anything, so he said solemnly: "It's from a far away place." But then he added: "I live in a place where there is snow all the year round, and I came here to find someone who has been missing for many years." friend."

"So, where are your friends? Where are you going to find them?"

Lan Linghu shook his head: "I don't know where he is? I don't know where to find him!"

Yu's sister-in-law: "You two little brothers, don't worry, if there is fate, you will find it sooner or later."

The eldest brother of the Yu family nodded quickly: "If you are not in a hurry! You might as well stay for two days. These days are just in time for spring planting. According to the custom, at this time of the year, in order to pray for the strong growth of the farmer, the rain will be abundant and the sun will be sufficient. It’s time to celebrate. You guys just happened to be in time, this year’s spring planting celebration happens to be tomorrow night.”

Lan Linghu suddenly realized: "We saw my sister-in-law during the day to pick wild vegetables."

"That's right, it's collectively picking wild vegetables, and it's also preparing for spring planting." Shitou continued while eating, "Why don't my brother and I steal a kite and go out to play."

Goudan put down the bowl and chopsticks and walked to Lan Linghu: "Brother Lan Ling, stay here! Teach me to fly a kite tomorrow, okay?"

Shitou said: "Mother said I want to call you Uncle!" Goudan grimaced at the side: "No. It's Brother Lan Ling!" Goudan turned back and shook Lan Linghu's arm and asked, "Is that all right?"

Lan Linghu touched Goudan's head and said with a smile, "Okay!" He will teach Goudan to fly a kite tomorrow.As soon as Goudan heard the music, he leaned over and kissed Lan Linghu's cheek with a "Pa Da", turned his head to look at the serious face off the shore that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, and after a pause, he also leaned forward and kissed with a "Pa Da", He also explained: "Mother said to be fair, I want to kiss brother Lan Ling, but if you just kiss him, you will quarrel like my brother and I, so one mouthful is just right!" Lan Linghu boasted: " The dog is so good." Looking at Li Hai's black face, he shrugged his shoulders and suppressed a smile.
