Cold and warm depend on each other

Although Su Zhe's injury was dangerous, it was traumatic in the end. She also studied literature and martial arts with her master since she was a child, and her body is much stronger than ordinary people.

Before deciding to leave, after discussing with Xue Wanxiang, Su Zhe and Xue Wanxiang divided the remaining scattered silver into two parts, one for the two of them as money, and the other for Su Zhe to take to the village chief's house.

It is rare to have warm sunshine in winter. After noon, the old woman staggered to the yard and brought in the two long cotton gowns that were drying.She hugged the clothes in her arms and looked at them for a while, then quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, walked into the door and babbled and asked, "Wan Xiang, don't tidy up the house, take a rest. Where's Ah Zhe?"

Before Xue Wanxiang answered, Su Zhe walked in excitedly: "I'm here."

The old woman looked at her dazedly. The child was shorter and thinner than her own son. I don't know if she would dislike the clothes he mended under the lamp last night.

Su Zhe saw that the old man kept looking at herself, and she didn't know what she was thinking, she handed the eggs and bacon to Xue Wanxiang, rubbed her hands next to the old woman, and said with a smile: "Mother, guess what we are having tonight? Hehe. I went to change the eggs, and let Pan Xianglu do it tonight. She said she could make egg pancakes! The rest are stored in the cabinet next to the stove. Whenever you want to eat, cook one, and you can cook it with porridge and rice. It's done. By the way, there are some bacon, don't let it sit for too long, the eggs are left alone."

The old woman was happy with her, and hearing her tone, I am afraid that parting is imminent.She sighed inwardly, but didn't show it on her face, just patted the back of Su Zhe's hand, and said slowly: "What are you spending that money on again? Well, you and Pan Xiang are in better health, and you want to eat something good, egg Ming Cook them all up, and take them with you to eat on the road."

"Ma'am!" Su Zhe was unhappy.

Xue Wanxiang came over after putting away her belongings, and said in a gentle tone: "Ma'am, don't worry, we still have some money left, enough for the expenses on the way. You keep these eggs, they are not worth anything, and we are all together." Mind."

The old woman lowered her head, wiped the corners of her eyes, and raised her voice again: "Hey. Okay. Madam, keep it." She pushed the clothes in her arms and was about to speak, when she heard a sound outside.

"Brother Su! Are you there?" A young man shouted.

Su Zhe immediately answered him loudly: "Yes. Come here." She got up and went out while talking.

There were two young students standing in the yard, one of them was pushing a small cart with saws and hammers in it, and a pile of logs of different lengths, and the other was carrying a wooden ladder, as if he was going to lift a beam to unravel tiles.

Su Zhe said with a smile: "I'm sorry to bother you, let's repair my mother's house. Is the money enough to buy materials?"

The man who just yelled replied: "It's easy to say. The money is enough. Madam and us are neighbors, don't worry. I will keep it for you and fix it."

But for a while, there was a chaotic noise outside the house, Xue Wanxiang helped the old woman go out to watch.

The old woman squinted her eyes in the small yard, watching Su Zhe standing a few steps away, instructing the two young men to focus on repairing.The sun was halfway down, and it slanted down from behind the treetops, reflecting the vitality of the courtyard, and it fell into the old woman's eyes, and the dim corners of her eyes were filled with muddy tears.

As the night was getting darker, Xue Wanxiang brought a pot of hot water to help the old woman wash her hands and feet, then changed another pot and went back to her room to serve Su Zhe.With a thin face, Su Zhe shrank his feet and said, "I'm done, come by yourself."

Xue Wanxiang glanced at her, "You do it yourself? After bending over for a while, she cried and complained that the wound hurts."

Su Zhe's face was hot, but the wound didn't hurt much anymore. She just liked to let Xue Wanxiang rub her when she was acting like a baby. Xue Wanxiang's hands were very soft, and would tickle her back along the way. His slender fingertips ran across the smooth back , that feeling, like a slight wind blowing through the stretched leaves, very comfortable.

She licked her lips (really, this was unconscious, but why did she lick her lips here???), looking at Xue Wanxiang's slightly soft face under the lamp, after all, she didn't dare to say this improper reason.

After soaking in hot water for a while and dredging the meridians, Xue Wanxiang took an old towel and wiped her feet, and asked casually, "I only changed eggs and bacon at the village chief's place today? Why don't you change more? It can be kept for a long time." What to eat?"

Su Zhe calmed down, thinking of the day's events, the corners of his eyes and brows were full of pride: "I have negotiated with the village chief, let him give the aunt three eggs every ten days, nine eggs a month. I will give It didn't take much money to pay for half a year, so that the aunt can eat fresh eggs every ten days."

"What about half a year later?" Xue Wanxiang sat on the edge of the couch, took off her shoes and socks and washed them in the hot water soaked by Su Zhe.

Su Zhe poked his head and watched her white and delicate feet soak in the hot water he had used, and suddenly felt wronged for her. "Wan Xiang."

"Ok?"

"You wash first tomorrow night, okay?"

Xue Wanxiang turned her head to look at her, her eyes were still blinking and staring at the water basin, her head was propped up, really like a cat.

Squeezing her face, Xue Wanxiang said: "What's the difference? I don't care about these."

Su Zhe nodded: "That's right. There's nothing wrong with the young couple."

Xue Wanxiang glanced at her, and she picked up the previous words with a smile: "In half a year, I should send you to Linhuai City, and I will probably pass by here when I come back, at worst, take a detour and fill up some things for the aunt. It will be much faster to go on the road alone on the return journey. There is still time."

Xue Wanxiang stopped holding the hot water.After a while, he swiped across the water as if nothing had happened, and said lightly, "You want to come back alone?"

Su Zhe replied frankly: "Yeah! What Master told me hasn't been settled yet. The Jianghu is so big, I'm going to have a look!"

After she finished speaking, she lay down on the pillow with her legs crossed, thinking about traveling all over the world and enjoying her kindness and hatred.

The room was silent for a moment, Xue Wanxiang quietly wiped the water drops with her long eyelashes hanging down, and poured out the cool water in the basin.

The moon was still in early winter, and the night was clear and cold. Su Zhe was wounded on his right waist, so he naturally slept outside to avoid touching the wound.Xue Wanxiang turned off the lamp, and pulled out the hairpin casually, her black silk hair fell down, and the moonlight fell on her back through the window lattice, casting a thin layer of silver.

Su Zhe leaned on one of his arms and watched her sit on the edge of the bed, folded her feet, and turned to the bed.

The old cotton quilt that has been exposed to the sun during the day has a warm fragrance.Su Zhe hugged the quilt sideways, and looked at Xue Wanxiang's delicate profile in the moonlight.Her willow eyebrows are curved, her eyelashes are long and curled up, her nose bridge is straight, and her lips are as thin as honey.She is beautiful when she is happy, when she is angry, and even when she is sad.Su Zhe thought, bent his lips and smiled.

Although it was in the dark night, Xue Wanxiang could still feel her gaze. Normally, she might have scolded her, or made a fight for a while, but tonight, for some reason, her heart felt cold, and she really didn't bother to answer her.

She closed her eyes as if she was asleep.

Su Zhe waited for a long time, saw that she had not moved, and quietly approached her, really, really, very beautiful.

Xue Wanxiang sighed secretly, eyes still closed, and asked lightly: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

So close, her breath fell on her face.Xue Wanxiang's face was reddish, luckily it was too late for anyone to see clearly.

"My... wound hurts. My back hurts. Touch it." Su Zhe began to sell his innocence.

Xue Wanxiang didn't move, Su Zhe's paw stretched out and grabbed Xue Wanxiang's hand, Xue Wanxiang struggled lightly, and avoided it.

She retreated a little into the bed, and there was a gap between the two of them. The cold wind poured in from her shoulders, Su Zhe shrank her neck, and slammed into it again.

"Wan Xiang..."

Her voice was pitiful and full of grievances. Xue Wanxiang knew that she was lying eight out of ten, but she still wavered.Su Zhe leaned against her arm, and she had to yell: "Lie back, carefully press the wound."

Su Zhe put his hands around hers, and his voice was sticky: "But I still want you to tickle my back."

!!!

Xue Wanxiang clenched her small fists and made an inch of it!

Seeing that she didn't make a sound, Su Zhe had to retreat obediently. Before turning back, Xue Wanxiang's soft palm came over and lifted the corner of her jacket under the quilt. His fingertips were soft and warm, and rubbed around the wound for her. .

Su Zhe became quiet in an instant like a cat whose hair has been stroked.

When Xue Wanxiang's hand withdrew from the corner of the lapel, Su Zhe had a sudden thought: "Don't hide it through the clothes!"

Xue Wanxiang: "???"

Su Zhe had a hippie smile on his face: "Itchy back, it's only comfortable if it's tickled directly on my back! It's like the time when my wound was so painful that I wanted to cry! That's how you tickled my back!"

Xue Wanxiang laughed angrily: "Then let me see if you cry?"

Su Zhe: "..."

Fortunately, Xue Wanxiang wasn't thinking about it, and instead of nagging her, she turned her wrist a little, and stroked her tender back through her clothes.Su Zhe narrowed his eyes comfortably, wishing he could meow twice.

After a while, Xue Wanxiang said quietly: "Azhe, do you have any thoughts about your future life?"

Su Zhe was about to fall asleep. He opened his eyes slightly and replied, "I haven't thought much about it. Maybe I will go back to my master's school. The master said that I have good aptitude and work hard. Maybe I can carry forward my kung fu in this school. "

"Is it the so-called inheritance mantle in martial arts?"

"That's not true. It's about helping the master manage some things and bring some young apprentices. I have a junior sister, who is the daughter of the master and his wife. The successor is either on this junior sister, or whoever is married to the junior sister Brother." Su Zhe said with a smile: "My master said, it's a pity that I am a girl, otherwise I would be considered childhood sweethearts with my junior sister, and it would be good to betrothed to me."

The hand on the itchy back stopped, Su Zhe just thought she was tired and didn't care.Drowsy, she blinked her eyes and was about to fall asleep, but she heard Xue Wanxiang's clear and expectant voice, whispering in her ear: "Do you want to stay in Linhuai City to live? With you, wandering the rivers and lakes, After you are happy with your grievances."
