Brother of Rebirth

Light smoke rose from the roof of Qi's house, and the birds standing on the chimney couldn't bear the smoke, and flew to the resting place in the distance, and then the smell of food burst out, and Achang had already put all the tables, chairs and benches in the house. Moving to the courtyard, the supply was still in short supply. Some villagers who couldn't get their seats didn't mind, they just sat on the spot, and then looked eagerly towards the kitchen.

The kitchen was in full swing.

Those who light the fire, those who wash the vegetables, and those who arrange the dishes all have their own division of labor.

Qi Wu put on a big pot to cook the millet rice, and the small stove inside was also turned on for cooking. The pot was hot, and the cooking was very fast, but the millet rice hadn't come out of the pot yet, and several villagers who helped He had already secretly grabbed a few handfuls and stuffed them into his mouth, Qi Wu sighed inwardly, he could only pretend he didn't see it.

Su Ling and Yinglian stayed with Aunt Sun and her child in the bedroom.Sister-in-law Sun drank some porridge, and her belly, which had been empty for many days, finally found comfort. The fatigue of many days made her fall asleep in a short while, and even Yinglian, who was chattering, could not disturb her sleepiness.

Yinglian kept clamoring to hold the baby. Su Ling thought she was reckless and didn't feel relieved. Seeing that she was making a fuss, she had to carefully give her the baby in her arms, and said in a low voice, "You, can you?" Be careful."

Yinglian was furious, her eyes widened and she said earnestly, "I've hugged so many children! Brother beauty, don't look down on me!"

Su Ling smiled slightly. In this other world, he likes this innocent girl who makes a fuss.

The little baby was used to being in Su Ling's arms, but now being held in Yinglian's clumsy holding position, he felt uncomfortable all of a sudden, struggled and babbled.

Yinglian became anxious, "Not good, not good."

Before she had time to appease Ban Zhuxiang, seeing the little kid's mouth was about to cry, Yinglian immediately handed the baby to Su Ling, "He's not good, I don't want him anymore!"

Su Ling took it over, and comforted her softly for a while, the baby fell into a familiar embrace, and quickly calmed down, sucking her thumb, blinking and blinking her eyes, wandering around, it was really pitiful, Yinglian was very angry when she saw it He clenched his small fist and pretended to hit him.

Laughing and making noise for a while, it was rare for Su Ling to be a little happy in this other world.

On the table was the rice soup that the baby hadn't finished eating just now. Su Ling was afraid that it would be a waste, so he put it on the stove to simmer until the child was hungry.As soon as they were put away, Ah Chang came in and called them out for dinner.

Yinglian was very hungry, she pushed Su Ling's back and went out giggling.

It was almost noon, and the hungry villagers left after eating, and some stayed and refused to leave. Qi Wu promised them that they could continue to come in the evening, so they went home without hesitation.

Qi Wu sent the last villager away, and closed the mottled courtyard door, only to hear Zhao Ershu sitting on the stone pile in front of the hall sigh a long time, Qi Wu knew what he meant, and sighed along with him, silently helped Zhao Er went to the main room.

At noon, I ate millet rice made in a big pot, and the fried vegetables were also very watery. After all, rice in a big pot is not as fragrant as a small stove. After drinking, he made a thoughtless criticism, and then with an aggrieved face, he followed everyone to swallow the tasteless meal.

Su Ling was still drinking the japonica rice porridge, her heart was also blocked, and she swallowed it indiscriminately.

Although he is an orphan, he has never been hungry in the orphanage for so many years. He also knows the Qi family's family background. Although it is not bad compared with many families in Hushi Village, such a big pot of rice is eaten. Presumably within a month, he was also eaten up.

What about the future?

Su Ling thought of the baby in the bedroom with whom he had a close relationship. When he was fed the first mouthful of rice porridge just now, the kind of gobbling that did not belong to the baby almost hurt his heart. When his eyes were fixed on him, Su Ling couldn't take another bite.

People live in the world, it is too bitter.

A group of people still came for dinner, some of them were brought over by the group of hungry people at noon, Qi Wu didn't say anything, and by the afternoon, he had already taken the millet stored in the warehouse to the workshop next door to shell it, at least it was a supply This meal was served, but the millet rice was replaced by millet porridge.

By the end of the moon, people were almost gone, Zhao Er tremblingly leaned on his crutches and asked Qi Wu, "How many meals can I eat?"

Everyone knew the answer, but no one wanted to say a word, just kept silent.

Zhao Er shook his head, obviously exhausted, and called Yinglian who was having fun with the dogtail grass in the yard, and the two bid farewell and left.

At the gate of the courtyard, one was bouncing around innocently, as if there were no worries in the world, and the other was old, limping, full of aging breath, and the two figures with very different styles slowly disappeared in the distance of the path of the courtyard gate.

The shadows of dead branches under the moon are so bleak.

There were rustlings behind the bedroom door, Mrs. Sun had been walking behind the door for a long time, and she had listened to the conversation between Qi Wu and Zhao Er without a word. She stayed behind the door for a long time, and finally came out of the bedroom wearing a coat. When he came out, he immediately knelt down to Qi Wu and kowtowed heavily.

"Qi Da, I gave you this head on behalf of Lao Sun's family."

Qi Wu hurriedly went to help her, with a slightly reproachful voice, "From the same village, why are you doing this?"

Sister-in-law Sun's miserable face was full of tears, but she didn't say anything, and continued to kowtow three times in a row under Qi Wu's stop, then stood up, wiped away her tears with her sleeves, and went back to the bedroom silently.

Qi Wu didn't know what she meant, his heart was already in a mess, so he didn't care about her anymore, he just stood in the courtyard blankly for a while, after a while he felt tired, and sat down like that regardless of the dirt on the ground , resting his head on his hands and thinking about the way forward, he didn't even let out a fart until his brain hurt from thinking about it.

Forget it, the soldiers came to block the water and cover it with soil, it was useless to think about it, so he simply gave up thinking about it, rubbed his face with his palms, and walked to the bedroom on the other side.

After Su Ling handed the sleeping baby to Mrs. Sun, he slipped away to take a bath while Qi Wu was discussing with Zhao Er in the courtyard. A Chang was very well-behaved. He didn't fall behind, and he didn't forget to boil his sister-in-law's bath water every day.On this point, Su Ling feels grateful and guilty towards A Chang, the child is only 12 years old.

After taking a quick shower, the stickiness of the whole day was relieved, and Su Ling's body was smooth. At this moment, he was sitting in front of the carved bronze mirror, wiping the wet part of his hair with a dry cloth little by little. .

There was a creak at the door, and a tall and strong figure stood there.

Su Ling was so startled that his heart went up to his throat, and he didn't notice that the dry cloth in his hand fell to the ground. Although this big man hasn't touched him these days, who knows when he will start again.

The figure gradually approached him, and Su Ling could almost smell the familiar and dangerous smell on his body. His back was pressed against the wall until there was no way to retreat. Then Su Ling whispered, "You, you come back. La?"

Qi Wu continued to approach him,

Su Ling panicked, "Second uncle, did Second Uncle Zhao go back?"

Before he finished speaking, he was hugged tightly by a warm and thick body in the next moment, and the thick breath on the neck was sprayed on it, itching and itching.

Su Ling twisted and struggled to get away.

Qi Wu said wearily, "Ninny, my nannie, be more obedient and let me hug you."

The voice was low, with deep tiredness and sleepiness. Hearing this, Su Ling froze and let him hold him. The beard on Qi Wu's chin rubbed against the pit of Qi Wu's neck. Su Ling pushed his chest, "itch... ..."

Qi Wu picked him up, put him gently on the bed, removed his coat, got into bed, held Su Ling in his arms and smelled it, like a trapped animal, Su Ling smelled the best on him Soon, those annoying world affairs gradually disappeared, and Qi Wu fell into a deep sleep.

Su Ling was tightly circled by Qi Wu, and he struggled lightly, seeing that he couldn't get out of the struggle, and seeing that the man had already fallen asleep, he didn't have any intention of teasing him, so he felt relieved and just let him go.Qi Wu didn't take a bath at night, so his body smell was very strong, Su Ling was not used to it, but he walked a lot today, his body was very tired, gradually sleepiness invaded his head, and he fell into a deep sleep after a while.

The morning in late spring comes quickly, Su Ling feels light, but sleeps until the sun is high, Qi Wu is snoring all the time, Su Ling can hear the noise outside in his sleep, Su Ling twists and turns to get out of bed, but Qi Wu holds him down.

Su Ling struggled again, but still couldn't do it, so he whispered, "It seems very noisy outside." Get up quickly and take a look.

Qi Wu's strong morning nasal voice said, "About those from the same village again... let's sleep a little longer."

Su Ling had no choice but to calm down. After a while, he felt that the voice was not right, and there was a faint cry.At this time, Qi Wu also realized that something was wrong, and got up all of a sudden.

Putting on his coat, before he could go out, the door was knocked open by A Chang.

"Big brother! Big brother! It's bad! Sister-in-law Sun hanged herself!"
