Siheyuan: Rebirth 52, intercepting Qin Huairu

The yellow mice seemed to be welcoming an old friend, full of care and tenderness.

Just as the yellow rat entered the house and was ready to enjoy his rich dinner, a noisy and chaotic sound of dog barking suddenly rang out in the courtyard, mixed with the woman's call.

He immediately took out the steel pipe that he had prepared in the corner, and went out with a flashlight in his hand to see what had happened.

This long steel pipe was actually prepared by the stationmaster for a long time for self-defense purposes, because thefts may indeed occur at night, so the dogs will not be tied too tightly during this period. This also explains why this loyal pet called "Little Gray" appears here.

After Huang Shan took out the flashlight, he finally discovered that Xiao Hui was facing a short, faceless woman.

The short man's face was shrouded in shadows, and in the darkness, his features were almost invisible.

Judging from the noise just now, it should be a young lady.

I saw her holding a stick with one hand and putting the sweet potatoes in her hand into her mouth with the other hand, while her eyes were fixed on Xiao Hui not far away.

Her movements show that she is alert and ready to take aggressive defensive actions at any time.

For someone like Huang Shu who comes from a poor family, this situation makes it intuitive that this person is suffering from extreme hunger.

Perhaps he was driven by some kind of desire by chance and accidentally broke into a world that did not belong to him.

Huang Shu couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy in his heart - after all, the woman in front of him was also a human being living in a difficult situation.

He immediately stopped Dahui who was about to pounce on the other party: "Dahui, come back!" Dahui was obviously depressed and helpless about this. He turned around and shouted to Huangshan to express his dissatisfaction, while also keeping a vigilant attitude towards the woman.

This scene clearly shows that the other party has snatched away Dahui's food and will not allow it to let go, and a potential conflict seems inevitable.

"Big Gray, come back.

"Huang Shan shouted quickly, in case he hurt someone else, which would cause trouble.

Dahui bared his teeth in dissatisfaction at the other party, making a threatening gesture, and then returned to Huangshan and responded by wagging his tail.

"Don't worry, I will compensate you in a while. You can leave first!" Huangshan said, gently touching Dahui's head.

Seeing such a reaction, the girl seemed to understand Huangshan’s meaning. She looked at him and hobbled towards her hut to eat.

“Just stop eating.

Let’s go back to the house and make you a bowl of porridge.

You are so hungry that even dogs are eating your food.

"

Huang Shan had a kind idea and decided to let the little girl taste the porridge because she was obviously very hungry.

The girl followed him into the house with a little hesitation.

Huang Shan found that her gait was not normal after he came in. Could she be a cripple?

Seeing the girl glance at her legs with suspicion, she should have understood her guess - although she was ugly, she was obviously not lame!

"What are you looking at? It was your dog that bit me, so you are responsible for me.

"The girl said in a somewhat stubborn voice.

Huang Shan heard her tone, which was pleasant and attractive, but also a bit unreasonable - someone robbed her of her food, but she still asked for compensation! He did not refute immediately, but looked around at the girl's current situation.

Her clothes were dirty, and she looked young and thin, with a tanned skin. Her birthmark occupied nearly 1/3 of her face, almost running through the area from her left forehead to cheek, as if foreshadowing that she would have the same fate as the heroine in the movie "Zhong Wuyan".

The girl glared at Huang Shan, and then said in a commanding tone: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and give me the paste. This is your compensation.

"

As an observer who is accustomed to seeing people's hearts, Huangshan's two pairs of eyes are sharp and good at figuring out others. He can see at a glance that the girl's behavior is actually pretense.

Those who are truly strong in action are often not good at expressing themselves verbally; the so-called "few words, hard heart".

This is exactly the kind of person that this is.

Seeing the other person's pitiful expression, Huangshan simply poured her a bowl of porridge.

Noticing her continued desire to stare at the sweet potato, he held out another sweet potato, seemingly prompting her to quickly address her food needs.

Huang Shangang took the remaining sweet potato away and promised to give Dahui an extra one.

He keeps his promises to every person or creature - this is a basic principle of being a human being.

Seeing her walk out with the sweet potato, she ate hurriedly and glanced at where Huangshan was going. The girl found Huangshan's figure in the faint light: he handed the sweet potato to the big dog and touched it affectionately.

This move made the girl feel much more at ease.

She thought: A man who is so considerate and gentle to dogs must not be cruel to people - at least he would not be someone who would kill people.

So after mumbling a few incoherent words, the girl immersed herself in enjoying her food - alternating between a bowl of warm and satisfying porridge and the fries in her hand.

Seeing Huang Shan coming over, the girl immediately stopped what she was doing and a slight blush flashed across her face.

However, her appearance had been so messed up that onlookers could not tell her true expression.

The girl glanced at Huangshan Mountain, and then her eyes turned to the stew pot in her hand with a little corn paste left.

It turned out that there was still half of the fresh food in the pot that had not been tasted yet - cornmeal paste.

Just when Huangshan thought the girl was about to put it down, she looked back and forth at him and the contents of the pot with a meaningful look, then picked it up again and continued the activity.

This made Huangshan, who was standing on the side, feel helpless. How could it be used normally in the future?

The girl, who knows nothing about this, only cares about whether she can get her next meal, and is willing to try it even if it is just by chance.

In addition, the man who seemed alert and cunning was actually simple-minded, so she might have the opportunity to get more food because of this, she speculated in her mind.

Why did she judge Huang Shan to be stupid?

How can one treat a dog like this and feed it delicious food without being stupid?

If he wasn't stupid, why did he add a lot of cornmeal when cooking? If he wasn't stupid, why would he take in a dirty and unsightly woman like her?

How other families make cornmeal paste often results in a paste that is too thin to stick to the surface of dishes.

How many precious ingredients are needed to create such a thick state?

Moreover, given her current situation, she would be despised and driven away wherever she went. She didn't expect that someone would provide her with a bowl of warm porridge.

After witnessing her licking the pot, wasn't that person a fool?

Huang Shan felt quite helpless. Ever since he played the role of the so-called "boss", everyone would be terrified when they met him, but now he no longer holds such a position.

It is precisely because of this that his compassion is aroused.

Everyone in the world has feelings of sadness and suffering, so how can a yellow rat not understand that?

However, a remarkable change has taken place in him since he turned from evil to good.

I actually felt a sense of sympathy.

This situation made Huangshan shake his head and wonder whether he was making progress or degenerating.

The girl kept a close eye on Huangshan's actions. The stew pot in front of her had already been cleaned until there was almost no grease left.

Her tense body showed her inner caution and vigilance.

Huang Shan glanced at her with contempt, making his attitude and warning clear in this way.

Her appearance of being covered in black and gray and with big scars all over her face naturally made it difficult for people to have any bad thoughts about her.

Faced with such an ugly person, let alone any malice, ordinary people who have never seen one might think they have encountered a monster.

The girl seemed to understand the subtle meaning, so she turned her head and snorted softly, expressing her dissatisfaction and resentment.

Huang Shan smiled and shook his head. It seemed that the girl still didn't believe him.

Instead, he began to think about teasing her.

Having nothing else to do during his free time, he decided to take this opportunity to tease the girl.

"Where are you from? Are you planning to steal something to eat?" Huang Shan asked.

After hearing the key word "steal", the girl immediately fell into extreme panic. Like a frightened animal, she stood up and wanted to escape in a hurry.

However, after looking at Huangshan Mountain, she thought of the big dog in the yard, and because of her recent ankle injury, she finally sat back down dejectedly.

“I didn’t mean to steal anything, I was just hungry.

I smelled the delicious aroma of roasted potatoes outside, so I jumped over the wall and just wanted to get those sweet potatoes, leaving everything else untouched.

"

The girl stared at the Huangshan Mountain in front of her and spoke stubbornly and resolutely.

Even though her face was covered with dark blemishes, her eyes were still as bright as the sea of ​​stars.

"Hmm~" Huang Shan originally intended to make a joke to the girl, but when he saw her appearance, he felt sorry for her.

He found himself changed and his heart was softer than before.

Forget it, since she was no longer in the mood to have fun, Huangshan stopped teasing her.

"Okay, let's eat and drink, and then let's get on the road!" After saying that, Huangshan ignored the girl.

He took out three sweet potatoes from the cross-body bag he was carrying. Fortunately, he brought a few more this time. He had originally planned to save them for breakfast tomorrow.

It seems that we need to prepare in advance.

Although baked sweet potatoes are delicious, they often cause people to fart. Try eating something else when you get home tomorrow morning!

But the girl did not move.

First, Huangshan ignored the large piece of iron ash that was being heated in the yard; secondly, the girl stared at the sweet potatoes by the stove, and she seemed to be still hungry.

Huangshan turned around and saw that the girl not only did not leave, but was staring at the sweet potato that was enveloped in warmth.

This girl is really smart. Not only is she smart, but she also seems to be quite courageous.

"Why haven't you left yet?" he said softly.

“I…my leg was accidentally bitten by your dog just now, and I can’t walk now.

"The girl avoided his gaze slightly and spoke vaguely.

How could such a little trick be hidden from Huangshan's sharp eyes?

Still, he glanced gently at her injured leg.

She instinctively shrank back, a look of discomfort evident on her face.
