Cross-country exchange

Every three days or so, Xia Yu would take advantage of the darkness to go to the mountain.Then he discovered a rule, he no longer needs to use barbecue to lure the white monkey to appear when he goes up the mountain. When he goes up the mountain, the white monkey will squat obediently and wait for him not far from the cave.The tail behind him kept wagging, looking like a domesticated domestic dog.

Then, one man and one monkey sat in the cave harmoniously, set up branches, piled up weeds, lit a fire, and began to slice and skewer meat.

When Xia Yu was doing these actions, the monkey had been squatting all the time, and its coquettish red eyes shone in folds under the light of the flames, like a ruby ​​that had been treasured for many years.

"Grilled meat, I'll give you a different flavor next time." Xia Yu found that the monkey was not too picky, as long as he roasted it, it would eat it.

The white monkey squeaked twice, scratched its ears and cheeks habitually, and stared at the meat skewers surrounded by red flames without blinking.

Xia Yu didn't know what it was talking about, so he said emotionally, "When I go to the county, I'm afraid you will have to continue eating your wild fruits."

"Zhizhizhi—" the white monkey frowned, which was something Xia Yu had never seen before.

It jumped three times, jumped and grabbed in front of Xia Yu, and finally just jumped over the low flames, jumped onto Xia Yu's shoulder, and messed up the hair on Xia Yu's forehead.

Xia Yu managed to stop it from continuing to make trouble on his head. I don't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that there was unstoppable anger in those eyes besides a trace of vigilance, like a flame slowly growing. come out.

"You are really smart." Xia Yu was not annoyed, he seemed to be able to feel the thoughts of the white monkey, as if when he was an orphan, he hoped that he would be adopted every day, if someone could feed him every day He has something, he must be very happy.But suddenly one day this person no longer appeared, Xia Yu pondered for a while, besides being very disappointed, he was probably complaining more or less in his heart.It's just that he couldn't bear the behavior of the monkey's hair blowing at every turn. He straightened his clothes and combed his hair before sighing, "Are you still eating? If you don't, I'm leaving."

The white monkey immediately sat up straight, like a child who has done something wrong. Apart from staring at the meat skewers, his eyes also looked at Xia Yu from time to time, with an aggrieved expression.

Xia Yu stopped talking and concentrated on grilling meat. After the roasting, you and I ate a bunch of skewers, and each person and monkey ate very sweetly.Even so, it couldn't stand the passage of time. When the time came, Xia Yu began to pack up his things, dig a hole and bury the pot, put me out, and push the grass outside to allow the air to circulate slightly, evacuating the smell in the cave.

After the white monkey finished eating, it kept following Xia Yu closely. It followed Xia Yu in whichever direction it went, almost keeping an eye on people every step of the way.

The pitiful look of the white monkey made Xia Yu feel a little bit unbearable. Staring at those eyes, Xia Yu seemed to see himself. When he was young, whenever his aunts and uncles gave him something to eat, he would follow behind them, wanting to hold on tightly. Living on this only piece of life-saving driftwood, unfortunately, this kind of effect is very small, but it is very easy to arouse the disgust of others.After being hated several times, Xia Yu stopped doing this move.

Xia Yu squatted down, and the white monkey squatted down in front of him immediately when he saw him squatting down.Xia Yu stretched out his hand and touched its small forehead when he realized that the white monkey didn't resist at all, "I don't want you, it's just that it's not convenient to take you with you. You stay in the cave well, I won't go there for a while The county will definitely come to say goodbye to you when the time comes."

The white monkey was very comfortable being smoothed by Xia Yu's hair, and could not help but squint its eyes.

After Xia Yu left, the white monkey followed closely until he went down the mountain and no one was seen.

Cao Jingtian became ill from depression, and in just over a month, it seemed that ten years had passed.The two temples of white hair had unknowingly climbed up his head, and his straight back gradually bent a lot.

"Father." Standing behind Cao Jingtian, Cao Buing, the eldest son of the Cao family, couldn't help comforting him, "The store is gone, we can think of another way. The rice is sold out, and we at least have silver taels left. As long as our whole family If you work together to save some money, you can definitely overcome this difficulty. Don't be angry, the doctor said to let you rest assured, don't worry about trivial things."

Cao Jingtian couldn't help sighing, he was still thinking about the culprit, according to the former manager of the Cao family, someone deliberately set up a trick for him to get involved, which caused the Cao family to leave without returning.

"Boss, who do you think is going to see that we are not going well, and blackmail us?"

"Father, don't think about it." Since the matter has already happened, wouldn't it be embarrassing to think about it again?

Cao Jingtian sighed repeatedly after hearing this.

"What's the matter, you don't even have any clothes this time. Did you, tell me, did you bring the things to your grandma and younger brother?" Cao's grandma outside the house roared loudly, with a sharp and harsh voice. This quiet home brought a bit of noise in the early morning.

Li Mo also replied unceremoniously, "What should I do with your clothes? How precious are your clothes, and are they worth my taking? Don't blame me for everything."

Grandma Cao was almost driven mad by Li Mo's attitude, listen, what are these words, what kind of attitude is this, is this the attitude of a brother-in-law towards grandma?He didn't like this brother-in-law in the first place, if he hadn't worried that this scandal might affect the marriage between the elder and the third, how could he let such a brother in.

"You are still stubborn. The last time your younger brother was beaten, why didn't you take my family's money and go to him to recuperate? Do you really think I don't know anything? Also, the jewelry in my room is missing, yes Didn't you sell your things to help your blind grandma? I didn't expect you to not let go of the clothes. I hung them outside the house last night. After one night, the clothes would fly by themselves? "If Grandma Cao could endure some of Li Mo's behavior for the sake of her little grandson, now he doesn't need to endure it anymore.

The words became more and more ugly, Cao Buing rubbed his aching head and walked out, "Grandma, brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Aunt Cao was interrupted by such an interruption, and she forgot to say what she wanted to say, "You just came at the right time, son, please comment quickly, two sets of clothes are missing, and the last one was left in the yard of our house, you If he didn’t take it, could it be that the clothes grew legs and ran away?”

When Li Mo saw Cao Buing, he snorted coldly, "No matter how poor I am, I won't sell your clothes."

After speaking, he left angrily.

The grandma of the Cao family put her hands on her hips, pointed at Li Mo's leaving back and scolded, "Have you seen him, big boy? Look at his attitude, it really pissed me off."

"Grandma, my brother-in-law just lost his child, so don't say a word about him."

Grandma Cao immediately diverted the fire, "Boss, you actually speak for him. Could it be that I accidentally lost the baby, or he was not careful. Besides, it is wrong for him to take things from our house."

Cao Bing didn't know where his grandma's judgment that Li Mo Na came from if something was lost in the house. He stroked his forehead, thinking that maybe it would be a good idea to find a job in the county and not be at home.

Recently, Xia Yu and his wife have become a bit sticky. They went in and out of the same room together, went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables (heavy fog), and washed vegetables and cooked on the stove together (heavy fog). The sweetness was so sweet that a group of single people The brothers turned red.Everyone was very happy that the couple could do this, the whole Xia family was filled with happiness, and the relaxed atmosphere made people in the village find various excuses to run here.After a few more trips, the relationship will be improved. When everyone sees that the building project is big and slow, they will take the initiative to help. After a long time, there are more and more people in front of Xia's house, and more and more people are helping. too much.

The two are together every day, and Xie Yun is naturally the happiest one. No matter what he does, as long as Brother Xia is by his side, it seems that his heart beats very fast.He covered his face, carried a basket of clothes and went down to the river.

Xia Chun pushed Xia Yu who was standing at the door to watch the house being built, and joked, "Aren't you going to see your little brother-in-law? Has he gone to do the laundry?"

Xia Yu: "???"

Xia Qiu slapped Xia Chun's thieves away secretly, and gave a little signal, "Second brother, you seem to have a lot of things to do, don't you think you have finished them all?"

The person being supervised could only stare at Xia Qiu boredly, and turned around to do his business.

On the contrary, Xia Lei walked up to Xia Yu, with several clothes in his hand, he looked left and right, but he couldn't see the figure in his heart, so he couldn't help asking, "Little brother, has Xiaoyun gone to do the laundry? I threw this dress to him just now, please send it there for me."

Xia Zhi secretly raised her mother's finger behind her back, and communicated with Xia Dong, "This move is better than the second brother's move."

"Well, let me take it." Xia Yu took the clothes and looked for the place where Xie Yun had gone before.

Xia Dong and Xia Zhi put their arms on Xia Lei's shoulders on the left and right, and said with a smile, "Does Grandma know that you increase Xiaoyun's workload like this?"

Xia Lei rubbed his chin, "The last time Grandma went to Baizhuang to see her eldest brother, she kept talking about trying to get Xiaoyun to have a baby next year. What do you two brothers think?"

When Xia Yu saw Xie Yun, there were one or two people washing clothes by the river, and the little guy was rolling up his sleeves, slapping on the clothes vigorously, with a serious face.

"Do you want me to help?"

Xie Yun was preoccupied with two things, when he suddenly heard Xia Yu's voice, he was startled, his feet slipped, and he almost slipped into the water.Xia Yu grabbed him to prevent him from falling into the river.

"Brother Xia, why are you here?" Xie Yun patted his chest, almost, it was too thrilling.His heart beat a little fast, and he didn't know whether he was frightened or saw the smile on Xia Yu's face.

Xia Yu smiled at the side without saying a word. Seeing Xie Yun like this, he was in an inexplicably good mood. This little guy has unlimited energy, and he seems to have nothing to worry about. Since he came, there have been a lot of smiles in the dull home , "Brother Six asked me to bring it to you."

A few dirty clothes were successfully picked up by Xie Yun, and he let out an "oh" in disappointment.

Xia Yu saw him washing clothes, so he put the clothes he washed just now in the water and rinsed them.Xie Yun frowned and stopped him, "Brother Xia, it's not easy for you to do this, so let me do it."

Xie Yun was educated by Grandma Xie since she was a child. She obeyed her father at home and her husband when she got married. The husband is heaven, responsible for earning money outside to support the family, and the brother should cook at home, wash clothes, take care of the husband and teach the children, so that the husband can have a good rest when he returns home.

Now seeing Xia Yu doing laundry, that's okay, it's just against an order in his head.

Xia Yu was unmoved, and gave him a playful look, "Who told you I'm not easy to do, is it Grandma or Grandma Xie?"

Xie Yun is just a blank sheet of paper, expressing his emotions clearly, even when he does something bad, he doesn't know how to cover it up.And most of the words are basically from Xie Ama's teaching.

Xie Yun hurriedly grabbed the clothes in Xia Yu's hand. Xia Yu raised it a little higher, but he couldn't reach it, and his whole body was stuck in Xia Yu's arms.

"Give it to me quickly, Brother Xia."

Xia Yu was afraid that he would fall, so he put his arms around his waist with one hand, and raised his clothes with the other to tease him.

"Oh, that's the kid from the Xia family." Grandma, who was washing clothes by the river, recognized Xia Yu at a glance.

"Look, this little couple is really messing around. This is a river, and if you're not careful, you'll fall."

"However, their relationship seems to be very good." Some newly married brothers enviously said.

Li Mo's heart was pounding. He lost his clothes. Did he forget to take them back after washing? Sometimes people are like this. They have already done something, but they will feel like they haven't done it, and then they will force themselves to look back. Check it out.

However, when he came to the river, Li Mo stopped.

The two by the river seemed not to see the eyes of others at all, embracing each other and fighting with each other.Li Mo will never forget that figure in his life, and Xia Yu almost became the person he has to rely on for the rest of his life.

"Brother Xia, you hate it." Xie Yun was bullied so hard that he hung on Xia Yu's neck and bit him.

When the two were snatching the clothes, although they didn't fall into the river, Xia Yu was tall and the clothes were not squeezed dry. Xie Yun jumped up and down to hook the clothes, but the water dripped all over his body and face .

Xia Yu pursed his lips and patted him on the back with a smile, "Okay, let's wash together, otherwise you may not have time to cook, and let Grandma know that I made you unable to cook, Brother Xia will definitely To be scolded."

Xie Yun thought about it, as if it was true what Brother Xia said, being fooled by Xia Yu so much, he even forgot who caused it, so he couldn't go home and cook quickly.

The two cooperated seamlessly, one was washing and the other was dressing.

This beautiful scene was deeply imprinted in the eyes of some people.
