old friend wine

The gentle mother came out, and Xiaolong gave the reason for the beating while chomping at the food: Dongsheng said that he and Xiaohu were not born by his father.

After dinner, Cui'er repeated what Xiaolong said to Shen Ci, and sighed helplessly, "Many people in the village know their fathers, and they also saw them when I rescued you home. It is inevitable that some people will gossip, and I am afraid they cannot hide it." Little dragon and little tiger."

"What are you doing to hide from them? Next time your husband's memorial day, you take the children to pay respects. After all, you will have the grace of life." Shen Ci squatted on the edge of the kang and scrubbed his underwear. He lived with Tweety for three years. Each is innocent, Cui'er sleeps on the top of the kang, and he sleeps on the top of the kang. They have the name of husband and wife but not the reality of husband and wife.Although Xu Qinghan was sorry for him first, he still wanted to be worthy of Xu Qinghan.

Tweety smiled bitterly, "I really don't want them to have such a father." Tweety never said anything about his deceased husband, but Shen Ci had listened to other people's gossip for so many years, and knew that the man was indeed not very good. Delicious, lazy, addicted to alcohol, drinking too much, beating his wife and children madly, even dying from alcohol, drinking without restraint to death.

Tweet came back from rescuing Shen Ci, and there were many people pointing at her, telling her that she hooked up with a little boy before his bones were cold, saying that she was dissolute and shameless, and gossip about her. At this moment, they seemed to be the embodiment of justice, but they never thought that no one was there for that man. Pulling Tweety's hair and saying a word of persuasion when beating and scolding in public, instead he watched the "wife training" show with relish, and no one helped Tweety's orphans and widows when their husband passed away and they were hungry.Until now, Shen Ci is doing good things for the whole village, and they still refuse to keep their mouths shut. Even when Shen Ci suddenly comes back with a lot of wealth, they think about all kinds of dirty things. On the surface, they laugh and praise Shen Ci for being good Tweety's kind heart, saying behind their backs that they used their ill-gotten gains to do stupid things and stalk men, how ugly it is.

While receiving favors from others, they envy and hate to slander them behind their backs. These ignorant and short-sighted villagers in the depths of the mountains fully demonstrated the ugliness of human nature.Shen Ci is well aware of these things, if it weren't for adults gossiping behind his back, how would Dongsheng these children know about this old story.He can't control how other people's tongues move, he just wants to be upright.

Shen Ci put the washed clothes on the clothesline in the yard, wiped his hands, opened the cotton curtain and walked into the West Room.Xiaolong and Xiaohu were lying on the kang, one copying and the other reading a book, with their two little heads facing the candlesticks, they both raised their heads and sat up straight when they heard the sound of lifting the door curtain, and each called "Daddy".

Shen Ci sat on the edge of the kang and patted Xiaolong's head, "Daddy won't tell me no matter how I ask, but your mother will tell you as soon as you ask. Daddy is so sad."

Xiaolong bit his lip and sat up on his knees, looked up at Shen Ci and asked, "Daddy, what Dongsheng said is not true, right? You are the father of me and Xiaohu, dear!"

Shen Ci said frankly, "Actually, you also know that your father and you are not related by blood, right? Although you can't remember everything clearly when you are two or three years old, you will always have some vague impressions."

Xiaolong pouted his mouth and lowered his head, with tears in his eyes, wringing his fingers sullenly and not speaking.

"Xiaolong Xiaohu, I treat you as well as all fathers treat their sons, even better than them. You are the only two sons I grew up with. The relationship is cultivated little by little, not necessarily relying on Kin relationship to maintain. I have never thought about blood or not, that is not important at all, what is important is that I have the kindness of father to son to you, and you have reciprocated your admiration for father. We are worthy of the name father and son. "Shen Ci's words were plain and unpretentious, but they were so down-to-earth that people felt extremely at ease.Xiaolong opened his arms and threw himself into his arms and hugged his waist tightly, and said with a smile, "Daddy will always be with mother and us, right, our family will always be together."

"..." Shen Ci didn't answer, he wouldn't easily promise things that he wasn't sure about, "Okay, now that I've made it clear, Daddy won't punish you, no need to copy, go to bed early."

In twelve or three days, it will be New Year's Eve, and the weather is so cold that it is not easy to go to school, so Shen Ci gave the students a one-month vacation, and he himself has a rare leisure time.The [-]th of every month is the day when there is a market in the town. Shen Ci got up early that day, and went out with an empty sack when it was still dark.He was going to the town to buy some new year's goods such as chicken, duck and fish, as well as the candied haws that the two children were thinking of and the rouge gouache that Tweety was always reluctant to use.

The small village is really too remote, the mountains are surrounded by jagged rocks, the road to the town is very difficult, and the distance is dozens of miles away, it would be good for Shen Ci to start before dawn and arrive at noon.

Shen Ci hummed a ditty while crossing mountains and ridges, and when the sun was rising, he met his old friend on the narrow path, and immediately stood still in a daze.Xu Qinghan also saw him at the same time, and his obviously sleepy eyes instantly shone obsidian-like brilliance, "A Ci!" He threw himself to the ground, lying on Shen Ci's body and repeated, "A Ci."

The thick snow on the ground had already been smashed into a human-shaped hole by Shen Ci. He was lying on the snowdrift, with the cool snow behind him, and Xu Qinghan's warm body on his chest.

Shen Che was taken aback by Xu Qinghan's bold move, and quickly dismounted and knelt down beside the two of them, "Brother... my lord... are you all right? Did you hurt from the fall?"

As if Shen Ci hadn't heard of it, he also stared at Xu Qinghan intently, and stretched out his hand to touch his side face, "... lost weight." What's not in love anymore, what's different, it's just bullshit!Seeing the old man in front of him again, the longing that Shen Ci suppressed in his heart tilted out like a gate, and at this moment he couldn't think of any grievances or resentment.

Xu Qinghan pressed his face against his chest, listening to his strong and regular heartbeat, tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably, and choked up, "A Ci, I finally see you again."

"Get up, you're going to crush me to death." Shen Ci pushed Xu Qinghan with his elbow, he calmed down much faster than Xu Qinghan, "I'm not dead, I haven't seen you for half a year."

Xu Qinghan didn't move, put his hands on the ground and leaned slightly, staring at Shen Ci's face carefully for a while.He didn't work in the fields this year, and his tanned skin has almost returned to normal. On his fair, angular face, there are delicate features - narrow and long phoenix eyes, a high nose bridge, and a pale pink smile. His thin lips——Xu Qinghan knew Shen Ci well, and he guessed that he had a slightly naughty smile. He pinched Shen Ci's face angrily, "Do you think I'm rushing at you?" Like a big dog?"

Shen Ci's smile became wider and wider, and now he not only thought about it in his heart, but also said it in his mouth, "Honestly speaking, you are possessed by Qiuqiu, right?"

Xu Qinghan snorted again unconvinced.It's not that he doesn't want to get up, the snow is so cold, he feels sorry for Shen Ci lying here, the problem is that he can't get up and he's too embarrassed to say.In the end, Shen Ci found that his face was frighteningly pale and there was no blood on his lips, so he asked Shen Che to help him up.

Xu Qinghan couldn't even stand up, his legs were so weak that he was hanging on Shen Che's body, Shen Ci frowned, picked him up and put him on the horse, and asked, "What's wrong with you, what's wrong?"

Xu Qinghan hesitated and said, "The foot hurts, maybe it's frostbite?"

He drove desperately all the way, and was so sleepy that he would fall off his horse, so he found an inn to sleep for an hour or two and then continued. He slept like this for two nights with all his clothes on.The rest of the time is frozen, and even the thickest clothes and boots will be pierced by the cold wind when the horse is galloping.He was inferior to Shen Che in having deep internal strength protection, his hands and feet had been frozen to death long ago.

Xu Qinghan sat on the edge of the kang, Shen Ci knelt down in front of him and carefully took off his boots.He pulled it a little, then raised his eyes to see Xu Qinghan's expression, he really looked like he was in pain, his expression was tense and stiff, he gritted his teeth and tried not to make a sound.

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, Shen Ci simply held his calf and ruthlessly rolled off his boots, the pain caused Xu Qinghan to cry out in surprise.The door curtain was opened with a small slit, and four big black eyes peeked out curiously from the slit.Xu Qinghan was so ashamed and indignant that he showed such a disappointing scene to the two children, how could he hold his head up in Shen Ci's house?

"Don't peek, do you know what politeness is?" Shen Ci turned his head and scolded, and the two children stuck out their tongues and left quickly.

There was no one around, only Shen Ci was left, Xu Qinghan let go of all his aloof pretense, and moaned, "It hurts so much, take it easy, Ah Ci."
