Three years have not made me and Master very estranged. After arriving at my temporary residence, I began to boil water and make tea as usual, and then served a cup of tea to Uncle Hui and Master.
Then he sat next to Hui Gen'er honestly.
The house I rented was not big, just two bedrooms and one living room. Considering the living conditions at that time, it was even more impossible to have air conditioning and the like. A fan could not drive away the scorching summer heat. Uncle Hui took a sip. After taking a sip of tea, he curled his lips and said, "The quality of life is not good. It's better to be a savage in the bamboo forest. What kind of tea is this? It tastes terrible."
The master also took a sip of tea, then stared at me sideways and said, "Sanwa'er, where are the tea leaves I left? Could it be that you, because you have no money, took the things I left for you, including Have you sold the tea too?"
This is my master, who spares no effort to hurt me. Fortunately, I am used to it. He explained helplessly: "Everything you left me, even a thread, I packed it up and put it back to Sichuan for my parents to keep." Yes, the tea is over there too."
Master was sarcastic, probably because he failed to attack me successfully. He was stunned for a long time and then said: "Don't give me a reason, you are still drinking this tea after three years? You don't have the ability to maintain my excellent quality of life. Buy something better." Tea?"
I'm speechless. Those teas you drink are hard to buy even if you have money. How about the excellent quality of life? It’s not like I haven’t seen you eating and drinking like this before, but when you argue with Master, I will always suffer the loss. I don’t bother to argue. Uncle Hui glanced at me proudly, and then commanded Hui Gener proudly: " Go ahead and boil two eggs for me?"
Hui Gen'er asked very carefully: "Master, can I have two?"
Uncle Hui waved his hand and said generously: "Then you can eat two."
I feel like crying in my heart. Who complained about my poor quality of life just now? Who is it, turning around and using my eggs to pretend to be generous
However, I dare not say this to my face.
A few minutes later, Hui Gen'er and I were rushed to the kitchen. Hui Gen'er cooked eggs. In the absence of outsiders, I was a tragic cook again.
An hour later, I was sweating profusely and prepared a table of dishes. Then I poured Master a glass of wine respectfully. For the first time, Uncle Hui also asked for a glass.
I was stunned and asked: "Uncle Hui, why do you, a great monk, still drink?"
Uncle Hui took a sip of wine, and then said: "I have died once, so you don't need to pay too much attention to some small details. It has been decades since I became a monk, and what I want most is to drink." .”
I thought it was funny and a little sad, so I took a piece of meat and asked Uncle Hui: "Do you eat meat?"
Uncle Hui's neck stiffened, his eyes bulged, and then he said, "Sanwa'er, do you dare to have some fun?"
I put the meat into Master's bowl, and then said to Uncle Hui seriously: "No, I really don't dare. In fact, in the past three years, I have been very worried about you and whether your injury is completely healed. I am very worried about you." I miss Master, and I miss you too."
Uncle Hui was stunned, a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, but soon, he slapped me on the head with his glass of wine, and said loudly: "You bully me because you don't know how to express emotions, right? Don't make me feel numb." This is what Xixi is doing."
I was slapped inexplicably, which scared Hui Gen'er, who was eating eggs next to me, to shrink her neck, but she was accidentally hit by the egg, and then she kept coughing. I pinched Hui Gen'er's face and said, "Slow down, tomorrow Brother will buy you a cake."
Uncle Hui looked angry again and yelled at me: "You won't pay for it?"
Master took a sip of wine and said to me calmly: "I want to eat that kind, the new creamy one, the one that melts in your mouth. If you can't buy it, just wait to be beaten." "
I was speechless, I couldn't offend anyone, so I had to raise my hands above my head, as if begging for mercy, and said: "Buy, buy, buy, buy them all..."
—————Warm dividing line——————
It was night, and Hui Gener had already slept peacefully. Because Uncle Hui had just come back, this kid had to sleep with the master, so the master and I were the only ones on the roof.
Summer nights are always hot, and I always like to sprinkle water on the roof and spread out a mat to enjoy the cool air. The difference is that today I have Master by my side, and I feel at ease.
There are only a few stars in the sky, unlike the days when we lived in Zhulin Xiaozhu, where we could always see stars all over the sky. But with Master around, how is it different
Master and I sat on the mat and were silent for a while. I took out a cigarette and handed it to Master and said, "Master, I saw you didn't bring a tobacco stick. How about a cigarette?"
"This kind of tobacco leaves are boring, unauthentic, and unsmoking." Master rejected me without hesitation, paused, and then said to me: "I haven't seen you in three years. Your kid's addiction to smoking has become a lot worse. It's a bad habit." After learning a lot, I haven’t soaked in the fragrant soup anymore.”
"Taking in fragrant soup, Master, that's so luxurious. I can only do it once a week, which makes me laugh. Anyway, the days of laying the foundation for childhood are over, so it doesn't matter anymore. I haven't neglected the homework you asked me to do, and I'm still doing it. I have learned a lot of techniques." I showed off to the master like a child.
I didn’t ask Master what he had done in the past three years. If Master wanted to say something, he would have told me before he left three years ago. Even if it didn’t help, he would have mentioned it just now. He didn’t want to say anything at all. What do you mean, I won’t ask.
I believe that Master only loves me and has no intention of harming me. If the day comes when he feels he can tell me, he will tell me.
"You've learned a lot? You're still far behind. You can't lose your homework. You know, skills can only be accumulated over time." The master said lightly, but then he added: "At your age You must be a bit stronger than me at that age, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to escape from that village. Please tell me in detail. When I came back this time, I first went to your Uncle Li, and I didn't know much about him. detailed."
Of course, I didn't hide anything from Master. I told Master everything, including the details. I was embarrassed to go into too much detail about my feelings for Ruxue, so I just mentioned it a little bit.
After listening to everything, the master said to himself: "Interesting, my apprentice is being treated as worm feed."
Then, the master didn't say anything more. After being silent for a while, he said to me: "In fact, our department has wanted to deal with this village for a long time. Originally, we wanted to delay it for a few years, but because of some very important matters, we will not delay it any longer. Yes. This time, you were more lucky to escape than I expected. Ruxue, a large part of your own progress is due to that Gao Ning."
"Master, do you know that Gao Ning?"
"Do you think I am really a god who knows everything? This Gao Ning may be on the list of the department. Did he take away an insect egg? He may have taken away something more terrifying than an atomic bomb. ." The master sighed after saying this.
"Master, you seem to know a lot of things. Can you tell me in detail?" I really want to know what is going on in this village and that insect. I think my master knows.
The master stood up, walked a few steps, and then said: "I will definitely tell you all this. You should also prepare. We will stay in Beijing for two days at most, and then we will set off. First, we will go to Yueyan. Miao Village, and then I will deal with the affairs of Heiyan Miao Village, so I have no intention of hiding it from you. In the past, I was too protective of you because I thought I could stay with you for a long time..."
At this point, Master paused, but my heart was suddenly lifted. What do you mean by this? Could he still leave
Master waved his hand, not allowing me to ask questions: "Where I am is not the most important issue, do you still realize that? Where I am and whether you can find me at any time are not the key to the problem. The key to the problem is that you To be independent, you have to shoulder some responsibilities. So, I want to make you independent."
Master's words finally made me feel relieved.
But the master clasped his hands behind his back, turned around and said to me, "Put the matter of the village aside for now. I want to talk to you about Ruxue now."
I didn’t know what to say all of a sudden. Facing Master, it was really difficult for me to talk about my feelings. I said a little sarcastically: “Master, what’s there to say? Ruxue said she doesn’t like me. ,I... "
"Look at your worthless look. She doesn't like you, but she can use her own life to save you? Can she not hesitate to release her life Gu to save you? Do you know that in the eyes of Miao girls, especially Gu girls, sometimes the life Gu Your own life is still important." Master glared at me.
"You said Ruxue likes me?" Faced with a relationship that cares too much, no one can avoid worrying about gains and losses, and no one can be completely confident. I can't believe it.
After all, Ruxue had rejected me so resolutely, and I didn’t know why Ruxue would like me, so much that she would risk her life to save me.
"Yes, she likes you, and you can also like her. You can be in love with her. There is nothing to escape from. Chasing her and loving her for some time is what you should give her. But We are just together for a few days. Next, it depends on your choice and Ruxue’s choice. You have to know that sometimes, love is also a kind of respect, and you also..." The master said this, as if recalling He sighed as he recalled something from the past, and then there was a long silence.
"And what about me?" I suddenly became nervous.
Master looked at me and said: "I said, it depends on your choice, which means you have to choose. But, you remember, no matter what choice you make, Master will not interfere with your choice, that's it."
