Because of the cold weather, people in Gushui Village seldom go out and walk around. It seems that the village is quiet and uninhabited.
"I'm afraid it's not an empty village, right?" Yun Su put down her hand holding the curtain of the car, and her brows were tied into a knot, "Looking around, I can't even see a person. Is there really someone living there?"
"It's freezing cold, people naturally stay at home and don't come out to hang out. Didn't you do the same in previous years!" Shen Juming's eyes didn't leave the scroll, but he raised the corner of his mouth in a funny way.
Seeing that he was involved in himself, Yunsu glared at him dissatisfied, but the person who looked down at the book did not see it, he stretched out his hand and pressed down his book, "Don't read it again, there is no one now, who should we ask? Way to go?"
"Who said no?" Being disturbed by him, Shen Juming stopped looking at it and turned his head to the outside of the car, "Someone has already come over!"
Hearing this, Yun Su opened the curtain of the car again, and saw a middle-aged man carrying a load of water walking towards this side with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and the snow on the ground made a "creaky" sound. , no wonder he could hear movement.
"You stay in the car, I'll go down and ask." Shen Juming put the book into the small drawer in the car, leaned out and asked someone to stop the car, and jumped off neatly.
The middle-aged man stopped when he saw him, looked up and down a few times, with obvious surprise on his face.
Shen Juming went up to meet him, cupped his hands and asked, "I dare to ask this uncle, is there a person named Qi Yue who lives in this village?"
He Tian frowned upon hearing his question, is this rich boy in luxurious clothes a friend of Qi Yue? He sighed secretly in his heart, if there were not so many monster moths, he would be able to hold his chest and say that it was his nephew-in-law. As for now, he just wished that the other party would treat him as a passer-by, not to mention himself in front of that person, "There is such a person."
Shen Juming was overjoyed, but he didn't expect his senior brother to be here, so he immediately said, "Can you tell me where his home is?"
"Turn the road ahead to the north, and the fifth house in front of you is the brick house!" He Tian raised his frozen red hand and pointed him in the direction. The water hurried away.
What are you doing in such a hurry? Shen Juming glanced at his back suspiciously, thinking that he was a little strange, but he just thought about it and didn't pay attention to it, maybe the family was in a hurry to use water.
"How? Did you find out?" Before returning to the car, Yunsu stared at him and asked, "Can Senior Brother be here?"
Shen Juming told the driver of the place first, then got into the car and said to him, "There is indeed a person named Qi Yue who lives here, and in all likelihood, he is a senior brother."
"Really?" Yunsu was also in a happy mood. He worked so hard all the way, but he didn't waste his energy. "How hard he can think of choosing such a remote small village to live in!"
"If you don't want to be disturbed, this place is very good!" Although the place is far away, it is still green mountains and green waters. It is much better than those prosperous places, at least you don't have to pay attention to those worldly disturbances.
"Then, if we came to the door so rashly, will the senior brother be angry?" As he approached the door, Yun Su began to feel guilty. He has always been fearless, but he was afraid that the smiling senior brother had a good temper. Those are all illusions, and the means of punishing people are endless!
"I only know now that I'm afraid, is it a little late?" Shen Juming saw his eyes flickering, and he knew what he was thinking, "When you are making a noise about coming with me, you should think about it first!"
Yunsu hugged the stove tightly and shrank his body without saying a word. This idiot who only knew how to study hard didn't understand what he was thinking at all, and he didn't understand the reason why he endured the cold to come here!
The carriage quickly stopped in front of a yard. The two got out of the car and looked up. They felt a little comforted. At least this place is much better than the mud houses in the village. Brother, he still treats him kindly. my own.
Shen Juming stepped forward and knocked on the door. After waiting for a long time, no one answered. Just when he was about to knock again, footsteps came from inside the door. He seemed to be walking slowly and a little heavy. He frowned. Is your brother injured
But now there are very few people who can hurt senior brother in the rivers and lakes, let alone in this small village. If this is not the case, then they are wrong. This person just has the same name as senior brother
"who is it?"
Before he could think clearly, an unfamiliar voice sounded inside the door, and the other party cautiously did not open the door directly.
"Can Qi Yue live here?" Shen Ju asked clearly, thinking about it and adding, "We are his old friends."
The people inside didn't say a word for a long time, and then heard him remove the door bolt, and the closed wooden door was pulled open, revealing a thickly wrapped brother, with curiosity and doubt on his beautiful face.
Shen Juming and Yun Su were stunned at the same time, but they did not expect such a handsome brother in such a country. They were surprised for a moment, and then came back to their senses. After all, there are many stunning beauties they have seen. Not the best one either.
He Ling was also looking at these two people. Seeing that their clothes were very luxurious, he felt a little nervous in his heart, but at this time the husband was not around.
It must be because the weather was too cold, the grandson of the village chief's family caught a cold and became hot, Feng Zheng came to the door to invite Qi Yue over, sweating in a hurry, after all, it was freezing cold, and Doctor Li was too old It is not easy to walk on a road full of snow.
When he was leaving, the other party urged him to stay in the house and not to go out. Although the snow in the yard was cleared, it was also covered with frost, and he accidentally slipped and fell. To be distressed to death.
When he heard the knock on the door, he was sitting in the main room roasting and embroidering things on the stove, and he told the bus to stop messing around, but he couldn't ignore it, he could only move over cautiously step by step.
Usually Xu Hua and the others would call someone directly outside the door when they came to the door, but today there is only a knock on the door, and he is the only one at home, so he is not comfortable, so let's ask him first.
Who would have thought that the other party said that he was an old friend of the husband, after hesitating for a moment, he still opened the door. If it was an old friend, he would have come all the way, and the weather was still so cold, so he couldn't stay outside.
"This is Qi Yue's house?" Shen Juming saw a brother, and he was even more puzzled, and he folded his hands to confirm it again.
The feeling these two gave him was really similar to Qi Yue, the first acquaintance he had met, and his bearing was very out of tune with this village. He Ling nodded while holding the door panel, "Is this here, you know him?"
"Exactly, we have known him for many years." Shen Juming glanced behind him indistinctly, as if there were still people, "He is now..."
The two of them didn't look like bad people. The brother among them seemed to be very cold, and his nose was red from the cold wind. He Ling opened the door a little more, turned his body to make way, and said, "You guys come first. Come and sit, Xianggong has gone out and will be back soon."
The two who had already raised their feet to go inside stopped, looked up at him at the same time, and asked in a voiceless voice, "What did you say?!"
Looking at their identical expressions, He Ling was stunned for a moment. Did he say something wrong
Seemingly realizing that he was being a bit rude, Shen Juming coughed lightly and said with a straight face: "Sorry, we are a little excited, you just said, Xianggong?"
He Ling was a little surprised. They must not know about his marriage with Xiang Gong, so he was so surprised. He nodded shyly, "We have been married for nearly half a year."
Could it be that he disappeared not long ago? Shen Juming and Yun Su glanced at each other, and at the same time saw the words inconceivable on each other's faces, they couldn't help but doubt again in their hearts, is this Qi Yue really their senior brother
"Uh, do you want to stand here all the time?" Seeing that they seemed to be lost in thought, He Ling couldn't help reminding: "It's cold, why don't you go into the house?"
Hearing what he said, Yun Su couldn't help shivering. He felt that what he said made sense and couldn't be frozen here. At the same time, he made a note in his heart for Xiao Yuheng. No wonder the guy said that they would be surprised when they came and asked. He refused to talk about what he was talking about, so that was the case!
When He Ling took them in, he walked very carefully and at a very slow pace. Only then did the two realize that he seemed to be pregnant, and the other party was wearing a lot of clothes, but they didn't realize it before.
They exchanged glances again, Yunsu stretched out the hand that had been hidden under the fox fur to support his arm, and said, "I'll help you go."
No matter what, if this person is really their brother's husband, then he is pregnant with the brother's child, and they can't let them fall.
With the support on his arm, He Ling felt a lot more at ease walking, he turned his face and smiled, "Thank you."
There was a heavy cotton curtain hanging on the door of the main room, and the stove inside was very warm. As soon as Yunsu entered, he felt like he was alive, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
A small casserole was simmering on the stove. Inside was the white fungus and lotus seed soup boiled by Qi Yue. He could drink it when he was thirsty. He Ling put two bowls in front of them and said, "warm up your body."
The taste of the soup is good, but when I have a bowl when my body is cold, I am picky like a cloud, and I feel that it warms my stomach and feels a lot more comfortable.
He Ling poked around in the hearth with a stick for a while, and a baked sweet potato rolled out from it. He wrapped it in a handkerchief and broke it open. The sweet smell entered his nose immediately, and he handed it to them. "Be careful of the heat."
Yunsu has never eaten roasted sweet potatoes since she was a child. Although it smelled good, the skin was roasted black. I don't know if it was delicious, but it was not easy to caress the face, so I took it in my hand. Seeing Shen Juming eating it, he took a small bite, and his eyes lit up immediately, it was sweet and hot, it was really good to eat at such a time!
Seeing that they didn't dislike it, He Ling was relieved. Now that he has a body, Qi Yue bought him a lot of these snacks and used them to entertain guests, fearing that they would not like them.
Staying in the warm room, drinking the soup and eating sweet potatoes, Yunsu felt that he was sweating, he took off the fox fur that had been wrapped around him and put it aside, it was a good idea for the person who met for the first time. Kind of like.
Seeing his appearance, he knew that he was in a good mood. Shen Juming smiled, and then set his eyes on He Ling and said, "My name is Shen Juming, and his name is Yunsu. We have known each other for many years. Hope there's no harassment."
Not knowing the identity of the other party and the wishes of his senior brother, he decided not to say too much.
"No, this is the first time a friend of my husband came here. My name is He Ling, you can just call me Brother Ling." He Ling felt that the friend of the husband was generally graceful and easy to get along with.
"We separated from him more than half a year ago, but he has always been in this village?" Although he was already sure that he was here, he couldn't help but confirm it again.
He Ling touched his stomach and nodded lightly, "Xiang Gong, he came here in the spring, and has never left since."
This time, the time is basically right, and Shen Juming has no doubts in his heart. His senior brother is always unexpected, not only living in seclusion here, but also marrying a husband.
Although this brother is a match for him in all aspects, there are not a few better choices than him, and the thoughts of the senior brother always make them unable to guess.
