Volume 2, Chapter 39: Tangyuan

The rain continued intermittently for two more days before it stopped, and the temperature did not rise. The autumn wind was howling, and the air was cold, making people feel a bit desolate and lonely.

Dongming Ziyu took Dongdalang, Shuanzhu and several other teenagers out of the cave and went to the official road to inquire about the news.

Everyone put on thin cotton-padded clothes with patches on top of each other. Some of the poor ones couldn't afford cotton, so they filled it with catkins.

Everyone saw the sun for the first time in these days, so they moved their quilts and other things to the sun outside the cave to dry them.

Children who don't know how to be sad are running back and forth under the quilt. The children's laughter echoes on the hillside, making the adults' faces less sad and the corners of their lips raised slightly.

Rong Chuan's leg has healed very well, and the splint has been removed. However, it has been a hundred days since the splint was removed. He still has to use a cane to walk and cannot use his leg.

Shangguan Ruoli made a simple pair of crutches for him, which was very convenient for him to walk, and he no longer had to be supported by others.

Rong Chuan walked to a relatively quiet place, sat on a stone, and looked at the rolling mountains and rivers in a daze, and his eyes gradually turned red.

Ling Yue ran over, "Rong Chuan, what are you doing?"

Rong Chuan blinked his eyes, showed a faint smile, slowly turned around, and saw a thin and beautiful little girl climbing up the hillside.

Ling Yue's face was rosy, and her eyes were particularly big because of her thinness. Her long eyelashes were fluttering, smart and lively. That innocent and pure smile made Rong Chuan's gloomy mood instantly dissipate.

Rongchuan said: "Come here to see the scenery."

Ling Yue stood next to him and looked up. After a rain, the yellow leaves became more yellow, the red leaves became more red, and the green leaves became greener. They looked particularly fresh and bright. A mountain wind passed by, and the red and yellow fallen leaves followed the wind.

It feels a bit like a fairyland on earth.

I couldn't help but sigh: "It's indeed beautiful. It would be nice to stay here for a few more days."

Rong Chuan said: "The best we can do is stay here until everyone's wounds heal. There is no village or shop here, and there is no place to buy food."

Ling Yue forgot about this. Her parents have space and there is no need to buy food.

He took out a handful of dates from his pocket and stuffed them into Rong Chuan's hand, "Eat it, it's so sweet. My mother secretly gave it to me."

Rongchuan saw that the dates were not wild dates, so he picked one up and put it in his mouth. It was crisp and sweet, because it had been ripened on the tree, and there was a bit of sourness near the date core, making it very delicious.

Ling Yue's eyes were bright and she looked at him expectantly, "Is it sweet?"

This is the jujube of space!

Rong Chuan narrowed his eyes in contentment, "Tian, ​​this is the most delicious date I have ever tasted."

Ling Yue looked like a arrogant little girl who said, "I guess you know the stuff."

The smile on Rong Chuan's lips slowly widened, and he reached out and rubbed her head.

Ling Yue quickly tilted her head to avoid it, pouting: "Don't treat me like a child!"

Rong Chuan smiled and said: "You are not a child, are you an adult?"

As he spoke, he ruffled her furry hair again.

Yeah, it feels good.

Ling Yue stamped her feet angrily, and suddenly attacked and rubbed his hair. His hair was black and shiny, which showed that his living conditions were good before.

Rong Chuan subconsciously hid, his ears turning red.

"Mother! Mother!" Wulang's excited and fearful voice came from the distance.

Ling Yue hurriedly said: "I'll go over and have a look!"

With that said, he ran away in a hurry.

Seeing her nervous look, Rong Chuan couldn't help but look envious. She had a really good relationship with her brother, and their whole family had a good relationship.

Ling Yue ran over panting, and saw Wulang running up to Shangguan Ruoli holding a snow-white furry thing in his hand, "Mother! Mother! Little squirrel, look!"

Shangguan Ruoli put the medicinal materials in his hand into the basket, held Wulang's little hand and observed carefully, "This is not a squirrel, it should be a little white mink cub."

The little white ferret was still a little cub, only a few days old. It was huddled in Wulang's little hand and shivering. It was obviously very cold.

Ling Yue walked over quickly and poked the little white ferret's head with her finger, "It's so cute."

Wulang snuggled into Shangguan Ruoli's arms and looked at her with big eyes, "Mom, it's so pitiful. Wulang wants to raise it."

Those big wet eyes melted Shangguan Ruoli's heart.

Ling Yue also said: "Mom, let's keep it, otherwise it will freeze to death."

Shangguan Ruoli said reluctantly: "But its parents will be anxious if they can't find it."

Wulang's little face became tangled, and after thinking for a while, he said: "But, it is shivering in the grass, and it seems that it has no parents! Moreover, he is so young, he can't go home by himself."

This is the most coherent and longest paragraph that Wulang has said, and there is a twist. It shows that he has used his brain and he really likes this furry little white ferret.

Ling Yue also liked cute little cubs and spoke for her younger brother: "Mom, why don't we keep this little thing first. If its parents find it, we can return it to him."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled, he was also a villain, there were so many people in the cave, how could he find the little white ferret’s parents?

He let out a sigh of relief: "Okay, let's keep it. The little one hasn't grown teeth yet, so he needs to drink rice soup. You have to feed it yourself."

"Yeah!" The two children nodded at the same time and looked at each other happily.

Shangguan Ruoli killed each one one by one and said: "Okay, let's go play."

As he said that, he and Ling Yue looked at each other with understanding eyes.

Ling Yue and Wu Lang sat side by side on the hillside, poured a little of the spiritual spring water from the gourd into their hands, and let the little white mink drink.

The little white mink was not willing to drink it at first, but Ling Yue put the spiritual spring water up to its little nose, and the little guy immediately stretched out its pink tongue and started licking it.

Wulang said happily: "Sister, let's give it a name."

Ling Yue thought for a while and said: "He is snow-white and round, so why not call him Tangyuaner?"

Wulang asked in confusion: "What are glutinous rice balls?"

Ling Yue felt sour in her heart. Wu Lang had never seen Tang Yuan before. She put her arms around Wu Lang's shoulders and said, "Tang Yuan is delicious, sweet and glutinous. When you settle down later, I will let my mother make it for you."

eat."

Wulang swallowed a sip of saliva and nodded, "It sounds delicious as soon as I hear it. Wulang wants to eat it."

Sanlang and Shilang passed by carrying firewood on their backs. When they heard this, they asked in unison: "We also want to eat something delicious!"

One was nine years old and the other was eight years old. They were already working as small laborers. They took advantage of the sun to collect a lot of firewood and dried it in the sun so that it could be lit.

Ling Yue happily agreed: "Okay!"

Daya, Erya, and Sanya looked over, "What are you talking about?"

They are cutting thatch not far away, which can be used to make straw mats and straw shoes. The sky is getting greener and greener, and the more of these things the better.

Ling Yue said loudly: "It's delicious, and you will be able to share it when the time comes."

Several girls laughed and moved their hands faster.

Suddenly, the person watching on the tree shouted: "No! Someone is coming!"
