"Zhongyi."
The young man who buried his head in the book raised his head, revealing a handsome face. The confusion in his eyes disappeared for a moment, and then became clear and energetic. He had a natural smile, and even a face without a smile made people feel very good-tempered.
At this time, I was interrupted from studying, and without any annoyance, I asked loudly: "Mother, what's the matter?"
The woman outside the door did not open the door to come in, but said softly: "Your aunt of the Yan family just told Wei Niang to let you go to their house."
"My son knows."
"Then you go earlier, don't delay." After he answered, the footsteps outside the door faded away.
Inside the room, Zhongyi closed the book, placed it on the right side of the desk with care, pressed the corner of the book a few times before leaving, and then went out while arranging clothes and hair.
The Yan family lived at the foot of Mount Li, not far from Lijia Village, and lived by hunting.There are only mother and son in the Zhong family, thanks to the care of the Yan family, Zhong Yi can study in the town without any worries.
He was going to Yan's house, and he had to pass through a fertile field to get out of the village. It was the time of spring plowing, and the aunts and daughters-in-law in the field were all busy. Seeing him passing by, one of them teased loudly: "Zhong Xiucai, are you going to Yan's house again?"
Zhongyi stopped politely, nodded and said hello: "Hello, Aunt Taohua, my mother said that Aunt Yan asked me to come over."
The middle-aged woman called "Aunt Peach Blossom" wiped her forehead with her sleeve and urged, "Then Zhong Xiucai, go quickly, maybe the brothers from the Yan family have caught a lot of prey again! "
Hearing the word "prey", Zhongyi's expression froze slightly, and then he bowed his hands to say goodbye to them, and hurriedly walked to the house at the foot of the mountain.
There was a young girl next to her, staring at the back of the person who had left. Aunt Taohua saw her and pinched her arm fiercely: "Look, look! I don't want any face from a girl's family. Zhong Xiucai can you do it?" Did you climb it?!"
The young girl was unconvinced, "Then can she climb up the pear tree? Why?!"
"The Yan family and his wife are just that precious girl, why do you say so!" He tugged at her arm not very gently, almost causing her to stagger, grasped it nervously, and said in a rough voice, "Hurry up!" Work! Don't eat dinner until you finish!"
The young girl stomped her feet, grabbed the seeds with her rough hands and threw them into the soil. Thinking of Yanli's never working in the fields, and her white and tender skin, she felt even more upset.
There are only two families in Lijia Village with green brick houses, one of which is the village head's family, and the other is the Yan family.Zhong Yi came to the tall wooden door, hesitated for a moment before knocking on the knocker...
"Come on!"
A clear female voice responded from inside the door, and the door opened not long after, and there was a delicate girl with a smile on her face, casually wearing a half bun, the light blue headband hanging on her chest with her untucked hair .When she saw someone coming, her eyes lit up instantly: "Zhongyi, you are here! Come in quickly."
However, no matter how enthusiastic her tone was, Zhongyi still took a step back subconsciously, her eyes lingering on the blood on her hand: "Ali, you..."
Yan Li followed his gaze to look at her hand, suddenly realized, and then quickly hid her hand behind her back to prevent Zhong Yi from seeing it, and smiled at him embarrassedly: "I was in a hurry to open the door just now, and I just wiped my hand in a hurry. , didn’t clean it up.” He turned around and said, “Go in first.”
As soon as she turned around, the blood-stained hands clearly fell into Zhong Yi's eyes again, which made him a little helpless, but he was ashamed to remind him, so he had to turn his eyes away.
"My father just brought some prey back from the mountains today." Yan Li pointed to the half-skinned rabbit and the pheasant next to her leg tied by a straw rope, and said, "I was going to pack it up and take it back for you. I didn't expect you to come so soon."
Zhongyi stopped two feet away, pulled the corners of her mouth reluctantly, looked past the pool of blood on the ground, and landed on the mouth of the well: "Uncle Yan is not easy to hunt, we really don't need to give us so much every time..."
"Didn't my aunt also help me make clothes!" The so-called reciprocity, of course, is because the two families can be so good because of the constant exchanges.
Yan Li sat back on the small bench, picked up a sharp knife and continued to skin the rabbit, while being careful not to damage the fur, she laughed at him: "It's not human blood, Zhong Yi, why haven't you made any progress?"
Zhong Yi didn't answer, but changed the subject bluntly: "Has Buyao not found it yet?"
The knife in Yanli's hand paused, and then she pulled the rabbit skin tightly with her left hand, and continued with her right hand, sighing softly: "It's been less than half a year since he disappeared after entering the mountain. I found no one but didn't see the body, and I don't know where he went..."
Yanfu searched almost like a carpet, advancing little by little into the mountain, they all had the worst plan in their hearts... But if something really happened, even if there was no body, there should be bones?But nothing was found.
Zhongyi looked at Yanli with melancholy eyes, and then flicked them away instantly, comforting: "No news may be good news, Buyao is a bold person, maybe he just lost his way..."
"Heh! A man of high art is bold? If he hadn't insisted on going to the depths of the mountain to kill the bear, would he have disappeared?" Yan Li raised his knife and gestured in the air a few times, "He'd better hide for a lifetime, otherwise I want him to look good!"
"Heh, heh heh..." Zhongyi heard the sound of her swinging a knife breaking the wind, and unconsciously took a wrong step.
Out of anger, Yanli put the knife beside her casually, and ordered Zhongyi to say, "Get some water for me, and I'll wash the rabbit."
Zhongyi responded immediately, rolled up his sleeves, threw the bucket into the well, shook the rope a few times, then shook the handle of the pulley, supported the edge of the well, and lifted the bucket up with difficulty.
Putting the ladle into the bucket, Zhongyi quickly carried the bucket to Yanli's side, then quickly returned to the well, and asked carefully, "Do you still want to kill the chicken?"
"Of course, otherwise, is it because Auntie's embroidering hands can kill, or is it your courage to do it?" However, the ridicule is ridicule, and Yanli also understands that Zhongyi is afraid of this, so she turns to him and says, "Help me go to the kitchen to boil water. It is estimated that when the water boils, I will finish killing here."
As soon as Zhongyi heard this, she immediately turned around, pushed open a door on the west side very naturally, and walked in.
Yan Li looked back, shook her head and laughed.He quickly washed the rabbit and cut it open, and then killed the pheasant with a single knife. After it stopped flopping, he washed the blood off his hands and shouted to the kitchen, "Zhongyi, are you ready?"
"Okay!" As soon as the words were finished, Zhong Yi walked out of the kitchen unsteadily carrying a large pot of boiling hot water.
Yan Li hurried over to carry it with him, and complained: "Won't you take out the pot first, and then serve it in a small pot? What if it gets hot?"
Zhong Yi smiled ashamedly, "I was in a hurry and then forgot..."
Heli put the big basin in the center of the yard, Yanli threw the pheasant into it, took advantage of the scalding water and quickly pulled the chicken feathers, his fingers turned red after a few strokes.Seeing this, Zhong Yi squatted beside her, and plucked hair with Yan Li.
Yanli was impatient to deal with the small hairs on it, so she peeled off the skin of the chicken, chopped it up, put it in a basket with the rabbit meat, covered it with a white cloth and handed it to Zhong Yi: "Go back and let my aunt stew it." You guys drink chicken soup together, embroidery and reading are both mentally exhausting things, so you have to make up for it."
Zhongyi was grateful in her heart, and after several hesitation, she still took out a hairpin from her sleeve, "Ali, I bought this with money from copying books, and I give it to you..."
Yan Li looked at the silver hairpin, immediately waved her hand and said, "It's too precious, I can't accept it."
"No, it's just silver-plated." Zhong Yi explained anxiously, "It's not expensive, it's really not expensive!"
"Hahaha..." Yan Li was amused by him, "I said Zhongyi, you are too honest!"
If he didn't say it, she would definitely not be able to tell whether it was silver-plated or pure silver. How could she give someone a gift?
When Zhongyi saw her smile, she laughed too, and passed the hairpin forward again, "I don't know how to thank you, that's why I bought this hairpin, you can accept it, A Li."
Yanli raised her eyebrows, she didn't refuse, she took it readily, and said with a smile: "Then I won't refuse, but don't always say thank you, it doesn't make people feel unworthy."
Zhong Yi's smile became more sincere, and she nodded simply: "I won't talk about it in the future."
"That's right." Yan Li nodded at him in affirmation, looked up at the sky, and urged: "Then you go back quickly, the chicken needs to be stewed for a long time to chew well."
"Ali, you stay here, I can go by myself."
Yan Li was not polite to him, she waved goodbye to him in the yard, and when Zhong Yi went out, she also closed the door for her.
When she turned around and saw the yard that she had made to look like a murder scene, she couldn't help frowning, and said in disgust, "Ah——I'm a little dizzy..."
When her parents were handling these prey before, there was never blood spattering three feet away, but she, although she is used to touching these things now, her skills can only fool a layman like Zhong Yi.
His fingers subconsciously wanted to wrap around the braid on his chest, but when he was about to touch it, he suddenly remembered that his hands were still dirty, so he went to the well to fetch a bucket of water to wash his hands.
"Hiss—" As soon as she touched the water, she felt a tingling pain in her fingers. When Yan Li raised her eyes, she realized that her middle finger was cut, and her heart skipped a beat.
She has always done things carefully, and has never made such a mistake. Thinking of breaking a bowl in the morning, a bad feeling surged in her heart.Immediately, she felt that maybe she was thinking too much, enduring the pain and quickly washed her hands, as if she wanted to throw away all the bad luck, and washed away the blood with dirty water.
After the yard was basically back to normal, Yan Li went into the kitchen to prepare today's dinner.
The Yan family has no shortage of meat, not to mention that Yanfu brought back a lot of prey today, so Yanli is not as frugal as other families in the village, who cut out large pieces of meat for later use.
All the food was ready and just heated up in the pot, when I heard an angry male voice outside: "Ali! See what dad brought you back!"

Brief introduction: The Hesheli family, Longkodo's descendant Fujin, gave birth to a son, Yue Xing'a.
Yuan Ning crossed into the Hesheli family, and the scumbag Longkodo had already forcibly married his father-in-law's concubine, Li Si'er, as his concubine, and Li Si'er had a heart of snakes and scorpions that "makes a wife as good as a human being".
It was the first time they faced each other head-on, Yuan Ning was weak, and wanted to endure the calm for a while, but unfortunately he couldn't hold back, showing his fierceness.
