The moonlight shone on the Sanqing Hall, and the little Daotong took a nap in the side hall.
Zhu Shoumei was lying on the couch in Huang Youbi's room, staring at the beam with his eyes open. The master's snoring fluctuated like a tide, and his mood also fluctuated with the snoring.
There was no end to the argument tonight. In the end, Huang Youbi decided to let Bai Shiqi live in Zhu Shoumei's room. Zhao Ziheng also said, "The three of us share a room, and the seventeen live alone for one chapter. This is too unfair, isn't it?" He asked diligently, "Seventeen, why don't we live together?" Zhao Wu Jiu slapped him on the shoulder, "Sleep wherever you want, so much nonsense!"
Zhao Ziheng was very wronged, but his grievances were ignored.
Zhu Shoumei had something in mind. This small couch was used by the master to sit and lie down on weekdays. He couldn't even stretch his legs, so he could only bend halfway, and he couldn't fall asleep even more.
The frosty moonlight outside reflected on the window, and he couldn't help thinking of his childhood.
Zhu Shoumei was an orphan when she was a child, and was adopted by an old beggar since she was a child. She stumbled and lived until she could beg with a dog stick. The old beggar died that winter, and he almost didn't survive that winter - thanks to Huang Youbi After returning from practicing medicine, he passed the ruined temple and found him with a high fever, which saved his life.
After that, Huang Youbi was surrounded by a skinny little drug boy who didn't even have a name. Later, the name saved the scholar in Zhujia Town. The scholar was very careful when he learned of his life experience.
Zhu Shoumei has been diligent and eager to learn since she was a child. Anyone who has endured hardship knows how hard-won life is now. She does not dare to slack off when she knows medicine and medicine. Apart from serving the master, he spends all his time studying medicine, but he breaks. The leg of Bai Shiqi was brought over by Bai Zhenting and entrusted to Huang Youbi for care and treatment.
Bai Zhenting's original words were: "This brat from my family is very good, otherwise he wouldn't have broken his leg. Brother Huang, just discipline him strictly!"
At that time, Huang Youbi temporarily lived in the countryside of Suzhou and rented three earthen houses, not far from the public home of the scholar who studied in the village of Kaimeng. After curing the lady who had been bedridden for many years, he sent Zhu Shoumei to Kaimeng.
Zhu Shoumei has limited time every day. Not only does he have to study, but he also studies medicine, cooks, and helps Huang Youbi dry herbs. He is very busy. Suddenly, one day, a child with a broken leg is added to the family. He is seven or eight years old, with red lips and white teeth. , not to mention that he is more likable than him, but also made Huang Youbi always keep in mind, and when he went up the mountain to collect herbs, he told him: "You must be optimistic about Seventeen, and don't let her run around."
At that time, his character was more restrained, and he still had hidden the survival rules he had learned from begging. He was like a beast to protect food. Huang Youbi's words made him feel a deep sense of crisis. , neither dared to throw him out to provoke the master, and he was unwilling to take care of him.
Bai Shiqi has been a taoist since he was a child. He was the head of the second generation of the Jiangsu Cao Gang. He had a team of soldiers under his command. He suddenly resigned and was thrown into the countryside by Bai Zhenting. The lonely ones were about to sprout. Zhu Shoumei was extremely affectionate, "Shoumei Shoumei" couldn't stop calling him, and commented on him: "The old man who named you must be uneasy and kind, he was already thin and weak, what else would you call Shoumei? Why don't you call it Fatty? May got it!"
Zhu Shoumei cherishes her name very much, and cherishes everything she has. Hearing that Bai Shiqi insulted his name, she took advantage of Huang Youbi to go out and pressed Bai Shiqi to the ground to beat him, but he was wrapped around his neck in the mud. Rolling around in the ground, his cloth jacket was so dirty that his left sleeve was scratched, and he almost cried out of anger—this was made by the master who asked the neighbor's aunt to sew it, and he cherished it very much.
Seeing his sad face, Bai Shiqi was puzzled: "If the clothes are dirty, just change another one. I didn't cry, why are you crying?"
Zhu Shoumei glared at her fiercely: "What do you know?!" How can a child who is loved by his parents understand his sadness
The classmates in the Mongolian Academy have parents who love them, and some grandparents are still alive. Who has tasted his hardships
Zhu Shoumei hated the child who died in front of her, so she found an opportunity to go into the mountains to gather herbs to tempt him: "There are many wild fruits in the mountains. I picked them and washed them in the spring water. They are sweet and sour, but they are delicious."
Bo Shiqi really cheered and shouted to go, she was still tied with a board between her legs, walking with a crutch, and sometimes asked Zhu Shoumei to carry her. Zhu Shoumei was reluctant most of the time, but she behaved very well in front of Huang Youbi.
He carried Bai Shiqi into the mountains on his back, and he scolded hundreds of times "dead fat man" along the way. The children who are loved by their parents may never even taste the hunger. , desperately carried his back to the middle of the mountain, he used an excuse to go to collect herbs, let her rest in place, and ran away by himself.
That afternoon, Zhu Shoumei was restless, fighting between heaven and man. He wanted to go back countless times, and he rejected his own ideas countless times. After the sky was getting dark, he finally panicked. He also thinks that his mind is not right, just like the children in the village who secretly scold him, thinking that he is a "wild child with no father, no mother and no discipline", he feels like a heavy stone has been pressed in his heart, and he can't breathe. pissed.
He ran to the middle of the mountain in one breath, but Bo Shiqi was not there. He was almost sweating, and shouted, "Bo Shiqi—"
After only shouting a few times, a sleepy voice came from overhead: "It's noisy!"
When Zhu Shoumei looked up, she found that Bai Shiqi was sleeping on a tree branch, and turned over impatiently, Xuanxuan was about to fall, and muttered: "It's so noisy, young master, aren't you coming? "
"I I... I... Who said I'm not coming?"
Bai Shiqi rolled over and sat up, hung on a rope and slid down, and took the rope back and stuffed it into his clothes. In the other hand, he held a small cloth bag and stuffed it into him. Complained: "The golden charred fragrance that was just baked, it wilted all afternoon, and the taste is much worse. I can't wait to throw it away. It's a waste of my master's craftsmanship."
Zhu Shoumei smelled the smell of meat.
When he opened the bag, he didn't know what the lining of this small cloth bag was. It was actually oil-proof and water-proof. Even the cold barbecue was still meat. Zhu Shoumei took a vicious bite. After that, I almost burst into tears: "How... how did you get it?"
Huang Youbi is not particular about eating and drinking. Anyway, you can’t freeze if you’re not hungry, but there is no reason for a child to crave meat. Seeing a rabbit and a pheasant in the forest in the mountains also thinks it’s a walking meat dish. Just thinking about it makes your mouth water. Zhu Shoumei I don't have the ability to hunt, so I can only watch.
"Caught." Bai Shiqi patted him on the shoulder: "Go back, if it's too late, old man Huang will be cursing."
The old man Huang was not very polite to Bai Shiqi, who was a guest. When he should be scolded, he scolded him correctly. He was even fiercer than the third-minded apprentice.
Zhu Shoumei carried Bo Shiqi on her back, with roasted rabbit meat in her arms. She couldn't tell what it was like. She carried Bo Shiqi down the mountain with one deep foot and one shallow foot. I don't know how many reasons I've thought about, from "I forgot..." to "I'm obsessed with collecting herbs...", but none of them worked.
Huang Youbi didn't come back after seeing the two children after dark. It was about to have an attack, but Bai Shiqi took the lead: "Your family can't even eat meat, if my father comes back and sees me as thin as your little apprentice, Don't you feel bad? We went hunting in the mountains!"
Bai Zhenting never wronged his own cubs materially, and left Huang Youbi a generous medical fee. Unfortunately, Huang Youbi, a wealthy player, quickly helped the poor in the same village, and everyone could only eat vegetables, leaves and radishes.
He felt a little guilty, and when he asked the two children who were "hunting in the mountains", he was not so confident: "What can you two children hunt?"
Zhu Shoumei was relieved, and hurriedly handed the roasted rabbit meat she had eaten to Huang Youbi: "Master... Seventeen, he really hunted rabbits, this is the roasted rabbit meat for you!"
Huang Youbi took it and took a look under the lamp. It was really rabbit meat, and it smelled quite fragrant. He sprinkled a rabbit leg and gave the rest to Zhu Shoumei: "You guys eat it!"
That was the first time Zhu Shoumei ate roasted rabbit meat. At that time, he felt that it was the best food in the world.
