Seeing her back disappear in front of him, Long San couldn't help sighing. He didn't control it again, he had warned himself repeatedly, but he always lost his sense of proportion on impulse. Before he could finish being annoyed, Feng Ning hurried back: "Long San, I've seen the surroundings, no problem, let's go, we'll have a house to live in after we play."
As she spoke, she raised Long San up. Long San asked, "What's your plan?"
Feng Ning smiled at him: "Pretend to be pitiful." After she finished speaking, she took a few steps with Long San on her back, and then began to shout, "Help, help..."
She started acting without warning, and the panicked tone made Long San gasp and coughed a few times. Feng Ning dragged him forward half-dragging and half-holding, and said loudly, "Xianggong, how are you? If you persist, we'll be fine, if you can bear with it, we will definitely find someone to help you... "
There was no one around, and Feng Ning performed well in a one-man show. Long San couldn't help coughing again. Feng Ning cried and shouted: "Xianggong, Xianggong, you can't die, you are dead, how can I explain to my mother-in-law? Our two-year-old daughter is still waiting for us to go back? Xianggong, Xianggong, you must support Stay... those bandits who kill thousands of knives, even if I become a ghost, I won't let them go... Xianggong, don't leave me, you can't die..."
There are old people and young people at the top, and when they meet a bandit, they turn into ghosts. Long San covered his chest, he didn't need to cooperate with the pretense at all, he was completely bluffed by her, and his injury was aggravated. He couldn't laugh or cough.
"Oh, Xianggong, look, there is a family, I'm going to ask for help, you wait, don't die..." Feng Ning continued the performance seriously, she left Long San and quickly ran to the door of the farmhouse to pat the door .
The lights inside came on immediately, and the owner opened the door without even asking. Obviously, in fact, the family was awakened by the movement outside, and they listened and peeked and pondered for a while.
"Uncle, aunt..." Feng Ning really looked like a little daughter-in-law who had been attacked by a bandit. When she saw someone answering the door, she knelt down with a plop, snot and tears: "My husband and I went home from my mother's house to save relatives. I was robbed on the road, my husband was injured in order to protect me, we fled all the way, but this night was cold and dewy, my husband couldn't bear the injury, he was ill, we walked a long way, it was really desperate, please uncle and aunt. Save our lives, and we will repay with a lot of money."
The peasant man in his forties waved his hand: "Don't say that, save a life without asking for anything in return, where is your husband?"
Feng Ning pointed and ran towards Long San: "There, there! Xianggong, we are saved, we have met a good family."
The man followed Feng Ning and helped Long Sanjia up and took him to the house. The peasant woman held the lamp and hurried over to show the way for them, and when she entered the house, she saw that Long San was covered in mud and blood, and his face was pale. "Oops" exclaimed, completely believing the story of encountering a bandit.
The peasant and Han couple whispered a few words, and the peasant woman lit a new lamp and went out. Nong Han came over and said, "I still have a small side house in my house. It was originally occupied by my daughter, but she vacated it when she got married, just so you two can stay for one night. My house is far away from the village. We'll have to wait until tomorrow to find a doctor."
Feng Ning quickly thanked him. Nong Han said, "My surname is Ma, what do you call me?"
Feng Ning replied smoothly: "My husband's surname is Zhu, and my surname is Yang."
Nong Han looked down at the injury on Long San's body: "Master Zhu's injury doesn't seem to be light."
"My husband is in business and knows that it is not easy to walk, so he has some golden pills on his body, so he can save his life. It was because he lost too much blood before and was chased by bandits. It was cold at night, and he suffered from the wind chill. If it wasn't for Uncle Ma, you guys would not be able to survive tonight." Feng Ning said and wiped away tears.
At this time, the peasant woman came. Uncle Ma said, "The hut is ready, you can rest first, and my mother-in-law will get you some hot water to eat or something. Whatever you need, just say."
Feng Ning agreed, and Long San called out weakly at this time: "Feng'er." Feng Ning lowered his head to listen, and then took out some pieces of silver from his arms: "Uncle Ma, Aunt Ma, please. It's the cost of our lodging and food."
When Uncle Ma frowned, Feng Ning put the silver in Aunt Ma's hand, and said, "This is what I want. Living is not easy. We disturbed you, and it really caused trouble."
Uncle Ma looked at each other and accepted.
Feng Ning took Aunt Ma's hand and said again, "I have one more thing to ask for, those bandits should be fine if they get the money, but the leader sees my beauty and insists on taking me away. They fought together, and they were chased and killed all the way. We are really worried that they will find it here. Or if someone asks, please aunt Ma must keep it a secret for us. "
"That bunch of bastards!" Uncle Ma was really angry when he heard this, and patted his chest: "Don't worry, although I am a rude man, I know benevolence, righteousness and morality. Since I saved you, I won't send you here again. Send it in the fire pit. You just hide it with me, and I will keep the good news for you."
Aunt Ma also nodded and stroked Feng Ning's hand: "Don't worry."
Feng Ning wiped away her tears and thanked her pitifully. Afterwards, everyone helped Long San to the small side room, and gathered water, charcoal stove, quilt, pillows, etc. Feng Ning re-treated the wound for Long San, and when Long San was trying to get rid of the poison, he ran to the kitchen again, and with the help of Aunt Ma, cooked a large bowl of sweet potato porridge and brought it in hot.
"Long San, Long San, come and have some hot porridge. There's nothing else in his house. It's too late to deal with it, so let's make do with it, and we'll have a good meal tomorrow."
Long San's tossing gave him a lot of energy. He took the porridge bowl and spoon and started eating. After eating a few bites, he looked up to see Feng Ning staring at him. He looked at the porridge in his hand and asked, "Just this bowl?"
"Yeah." Feng Ning nodded, "This bowl is too big, isn't it enough for you?"
"how about you?"
"I'm not hungry." As soon as Feng Ning finished speaking, her stomach rumbling loudly, and she smiled embarrassedly.
Long San patted the position beside him: "Come here."
Feng Ning sat down, and Long San took a spoonful of porridge and handed it to her mouth: "Eat."
Feng Ning swallowed his saliva and shook his head: "I can't get enough to eat this. It's better for you to fill your stomach instead of both being hungry. You're sick, you should eat something, I'm fine, I'll be fine when it's dawn tomorrow. There's something to eat."
Long San held up the spoon and didn't move: "I want to eat something, so let's share this bowl." Feng Ning's heart was sweet, and he opened his mouth and swallowed the porridge. She took the bowl: "let me get it, don't tire you."
"Does my leg hurt?" Long San asked after eating a spoonful of porridge. Feng Ning looked down at his knees and laughed, "It's alright, I'm solid."
"You've walked so far on your back, you won't be able to lift your legs tomorrow." Long San fed her a mouthful of porridge and said again.
"Don't be afraid, we have a quilt and a meal to eat here. It's much better than a dirt hole. You will get better soon. My legs are fine. The big deal is that I will recuperate with you tomorrow." Yes, this sweet potato porridge is better than the delicacies of mountains and seas.
That night, the two of them packed up, put on the clean clothes that Aunt Ma gave to Zhang Luo, and slept on the hard dirt pit. They cuddled together, covered with the same quilt, and Feng Ning's body was full of fatigue and pain. She was next to Long San, and felt that his body temperature was normal because of his sweat. She felt that the pit was really warm and comfortable.
In the darkness, there was no other sound, only the breathing of Long San and Feng Ning. Feng Ning's heart was at peace, and he quietly held Long San's hand.
Unexpectedly, Long San didn't fall asleep. He suddenly said, "I haven't heard many flower girls sing ditty songs."
Feng Ning was stunned for a moment, then awkwardly hummed and said nothing.
Long San said again: "I have never bit another girl's ear."
Feng Ning didn't come out this time, but Long San said again, "No other girl has ever carried me."
Feng Ning became anxious: "As I said, if other girls carry you on their backs, you will bite them too."
"Other girls are in such a situation, I'm afraid they will only wipe their tears or run to rescue soldiers." Long San clenched Feng Ning's hand: "They are not so stupid to carry a heavy man on their back. Far."
Feng Ning blinked and leaned closer to Long San. She heard Long San say again: "They won't always make me laugh, and they won't give me the only bowl of porridge when I'm hungry."
Feng Ning felt very moved. When she did these things, she didn't think too much. She did it so naturally. Now that he mentioned it, she felt that she was really amazing.
"They won't turn around and choreograph and call me a pig."
"Hmph." Feng Ning was not convinced. Long San laughed again.
The two were silent for a while, and Feng Ning hesitated for a while, but didn't say anything. Long San squeezed her hand: "What's wrong?"
"fine."
"Go ahead."
Feng Ning didn't want to say it, but there was a tenderness she couldn't resist in the two simple words Long San said, and she did what he meant in a daze. "I was thinking, if only we had just met."
Long San's heart trembled, he just thought so.
"Feng'er..." Long San turned his face and looked at her innocent, confused child's eyes. He couldn't help raising his hand to touch her face: "I'm sorry for you, Feng'er."
Feng Ning gave a soft "um", and said, "I couldn't be sorry to you in the past, so you don't dare to be too kind to me, right?"
"I'm afraid, what should I do if you change back to the old you?"
"But if I can't change back, what should I do?"
Feng Ning's voice was full of fragility and fear, just like Long San's mood at the moment.
"Feng'er..." Long San sighed in his heart. It would be great if they didn't have those days in the past, but met as they are now. "Feng'er..." He couldn't help calling her again.
Feng Ning suddenly widened his eyes: "Why did you call me Feng'er?"
"Hey, isn't your name Yang Feng'er?" Feng Ning's ability to change the subject was already very adaptable to Long San, so he acted astonished and cooperated with her.
"Yang Feng'er?" Feng Ning laughed, "This name is not bad." She thought about it and laughed again.
Long San tugged at her hair: "What's your name for me? What are you going to call Zhu? We're right, don't show your stuff in front of Uncle Ma tomorrow."
Feng Ning giggled even more happily. She said triumphantly, "It's called Zhu Longsan." She deliberately put the word "Dragon" in her mouth, and it sounded like "Pig's Head San".
She looked so happy and cute, Long San couldn't help but smile.
No matter what happened, no matter how bad the environment was, she always made him laugh.
Long San felt that some things could not be turned back. He couldn't control his heart, but what happened in the past could not be erased. Even if he can change the name, but the fact can not change, and his mind, can it be changed
"Long San, among the things I've done in the past, which one is the most unbearable for you?"
Long San was silent for a while. Feng Ning blinked and stared at him. Long San thought about it for a long time, opened and closed his mouth, as if considering how to answer, and finally said: "That matter has not been confirmed."
"What's the matter?"
"It's unproven, and it's useless to say it." Long San calmly avoided the topic.
Feng Ning pouted unwillingly. She wanted to find out and see if it could be resolved. If it was resolved, would she still have a chance to be with him
But he refused to say that she had no choice. I had to say: "That's not confirmed, why do you still take it to your heart?"
Long San was choked. Feng Ning said again: "You forget about that first, and then forget about other bad things, okay?"
Long San struggled and struggled, his heart twisted and turned, and he finally gritted his teeth and took her into his arms.
Feng Ning was overjoyed, leaned on his chest and said, "I will also work hard, don't forget the present, and stop being the bad Feng Ning in the past, okay?"
Long San hugged her, trying to ignore the uneasiness in his heart, how could he tell her that some things are really unforgettable, and they can't be erased if they exist. But he can't say anything now, just "um", it's a response.
Feng Ning snuggled into his arms, yawned, and finally couldn't hold back her tiredness. Although she wanted to talk, her eyelids couldn't open. After a while, she was on this warm dirt pit. fell asleep.
Feng Ning slept soundly this time, and when she woke up, it was already three poles in the sun. She opened her eyes and saw that Long San was no longer in bed.
Feng Ning sat up suddenly in fright, but the pain in her legs made her grin. Long Sanguo is really right, her legs were so tossed yesterday, I am afraid she will suffer from it today.
Feng Ning lifted the quilt, rolled up his trouser legs, and saw that his legs were swollen into fat radishes. She grinned and dragged her legs to the ground in spite of the pain. Looking left and right, nothing had changed in the room, but there was a basin of clean water in front of the pit. She washed it, and saw two pears on the table. She smiled, moved over quickly, and nibbled the pears away in a few bites.
Just after swallowing the last pear, someone pushed the door and entered. Feng Ning turned around and saw that it was Aunt Ma. Seeing Feng Ning get out of bed, she smiled and said, "Are you awake? Hurry up and eat something."
She held two large bowls in her hands, a bowl of rice with two steamed buns on top, a large bowl of vegetables, lotus root, sweet potato leaves, and a few pieces of cured meat. When Feng Ning saw it, her stomach was growling with hunger, she quickly thanked her, and took a big mouthful of food.
Aunt Ma looked at her eating appearance and laughed: "Zhu Gongzi said that you have a good appetite, but you were frightened yesterday, and you have to walk a long way to save him, so you must be starving, let me prepare more food, Do you see if this is enough?"
Feng Ning smiled and rolled her eyes, and answered cheerfully, "When I'm done eating, if I'm not full, I'll tell Aunt Ma."
When Aunt Ma heard this, she was surprised at first, and then she laughed. This little lady of the Zhu family is interesting. Feng Ning asked again, "Aunt Ma, where is my husband?"
"My guy borrowed a donkey cart and took him to a neighboring town to see the doctor and buy some things." Aunt Ma replied, "It's sunny today, and the bandits you mentioned are really here, wearing blue clothes. , carrying knives and swords, several people together, asked if they saw a young man and a woman."
Feng Ning stopped his chopsticks nervously, and Aunt Ma continued: "I said that I didn't see anyone. Someone in the team said that, after being so far away, and getting injured, he must not be able to run here, and he must be still here. Hiding in that area. So they muttered for a while and then left."
Aunt Ma poured a glass of water for Feng Ning, motioned her to continue eating, and said, "Young Master Zhu woke up at that moment, and he waited for the group to leave, so he came out and told us that they were the ones chasing you. Later, he discussed it with my family, and he still had to go to the town to grab some medicine and send a letter to the family."
Feng Ning nodded and thanked Uncle Ma and Aunt Ma's family. She has a sweet mouth and can talk, which made Aunt Ma amused, and sat and chatted with her for a while about the short-term affairs of the parents. After Feng Ning finished eating, she politely asked if she was full? As a result, Feng Ning touched his belly, thought about it, and said, "I still want to eat pears."
Her honesty made Aunt Ma laugh out loud: "Yes, yes, it's grown by us, but it's watery and delicious."
Feng Ning nodded in agreement. Aunt Ma said, "Young Master Zhu is right, your appetite is really good."
Feng Ning laughed when he heard it, and Aunt Ma said again, "He told you to stay in this room and don't let anyone see you. I'll go pick pears for you, don't go out."
Feng Ning happily agreed, Aunt Ma brought her pears and went back to work. Feng Ning was full, with a bulging belly, dragging two fat radish legs and went back to bed to sleep.
When she fell asleep again, seeing Long San smiling at her by the bedside, Feng Ning blinked, not fully awake in a daze, stretched out his arms to him, and said coquettishly, "Xiang Gong..."
Long San picked her up: "I heard that you slept for a day."
He was really worried, and he didn't have any sense of precaution. Fortunately, he came back as soon as possible.
Feng Ning rubbed his eyes: "I'm sleepy when I'm full." Suddenly, he thought about business: "Where have you been? How are things going?"
"It's all arranged." Long San walked to the table, opened the medicine bag, poured it into a basin, poured some rice wine into it, and then smashed the herbs with a wooden roller.
