983. Chapter 983: The mother-in-law and the grandson
Along the way, Chen Xiao and Leng Yu galloped. The two of them ran for more than a hundred kilometers, and it was getting dark. Plus Leng Yu was a girl, and Chen Xiao had to think about her, so he decided to find a girl not far ahead.
He found a place to rest. After running for more than ten kilometers, he finally found a small village with a few sparse households before the sun set. Chen Xiao knocked on the door of a house, and the person who opened the door was a silver-haired old lady.
"Grandma, can I stay here for one night?" Chen Xiao said with a smile.
"Oh, come in!" The old lady had an expressionless face and was wearing ragged clothes. She looked like she belonged to a poor family. There was a five-year-old girl beside the old lady. She looked timidly at Chen Xiao and Leng Yu.
, there was a sense of unfamiliar fear in her eyes. Obviously, this little girl has a fear of strangers. Chen Xiao handed her some candies.
The little girl was stunned. She snatched the candy from Chen Xiao's hand and ran away quickly. She sneered and said with a smile: "You are really good at deceiving little girls!"
"Hehe, not only is he good at deceiving little girls, but he is also good at deceiving older girls!" Chen Xiao showed a teasing smile at Leng Yu. Leng Yu was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth and giggled. After a long time, she said
: "So it turned out that you deceived me?"
Chen Xiao didn't say anything, because it was really hard to answer such a question. If she continued to delve deeper, I was afraid that she would fall into an endless quagmire. A woman is a kind of cat, and a curious cat. They say
Curiosity killed the cat, and Chen Xiao didn't want to kill the cold words.
After entering the door, the two of them followed the old lady and walked inside. As the sun set, ordinary people's homes naturally couldn't afford to light those expensive lamps. Although such lamps are not very expensive, a rhinestone is very important to ordinary people's homes.
Said it was very important. The old lady lit a lamp with fire
Oil lamp. This lamp oil is a kind of grease refined from animal fat. It can burn, but when it burns, it will emit a barbecue smell. It smells very fragrant at first, but once you smell it for a long time, it will become very disgusting. And
The wick is a kind of wick made of entangled animal hair.
The lights were lit, and the room was filled with the smell of barbecue. He sneered and said with a smile: "It smells so good. Do you want to eat barbecue tonight?"
"You are wrong, that is the smell of burning lamp oil!" Chen Xiao pointed to the lamp lit by the old lady.
"You two must be hungry, right? I'll get you some food!" The old lady glanced at the two of them, and then walked towards another room with staggering steps. At this time, the little girl looked at the two timidly.
Looking at the person, while eating the candy, she hesitated whether she should stay here with Chen Xiao and the others, or follow her grandma. After struggling for a moment, she still ran straight towards the old lady.
Chen Xiao and Leng Yu stayed in this small space for a moment. They looked around curiously. It was not surprising to describe this home as having four walls. There were several hunting tools hanging on the surrounding walls. In the corner,
There were several tables and chairs with missing arms and legs, and some messy furniture. The doors to the two rooms were ajar. Chen Xiao smiled and said, "It seems that you have to sleep in the same bed with me tonight."
Got it!"
"I don't want to!" Leng Yu blushed and spat softly: "You sleep on the floor at night, and I sleep on the bed alone!"
"Alright!" Chen Xiao nodded.
"You really agreed?" Leng Yu looked at Chen Xiao in surprise.
"Then what can we do?" Chen Xiao looked at Leng Yu innocently and said, "I can't force others to make things difficult for me, right? You are a girl and you are alone with me outside. I should let you go and I can't bully you!"
Leng Yu's nose became sore, and her eyes immediately filled with tears. Chen Xiao hurriedly said: "What's wrong? Don't cry. I...I...it's a big deal, why don't I sleep at the door? I'll guard you at the door."
Stay here and don’t let anyone bully you!”
"Go!" Leng Yu couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "Who cares that you are guarding me? At night...at night you sleep in bed with me!"
"Really?" Chen Xiao was surprised and said happily: "You... aren't you afraid that I will bully you?"
"Hmph, you dare!" Leng Yu snorted: "If you dare to bully me, I will destroy your dick!"
"Ah?" Chen Xiao was startled, and then burst into laughter. The two sat in the hall chatting for a while, and the timid little girl had slipped out. After a while, the old lady was also carrying a plate of sticky rice.
The food comes up, which is a mixture of meat and some miscellaneous grains. The residents of the Fairyland Continent mainly eat meat because they need to have a strong body, and they are also used to eating meat as their main food. As for vegetables and fruits,
Instead, it became their supplementary food.
Leng Yu looked at the plate of unappetizing things and frowned. Chen Xiao took her hand and dragged her over. The old lady got two plates and divided the food into two.
Er, smiled and said: "You two, you eat first!"
"You haven't eaten yet?" Chen Xiao was stunned.
"Oh, no, we're not hungry!" The old lady shook her head hurriedly. Chen Xiao was stunned immediately. He turned to look at the little girl and said, "Little girl, have you eaten?"
"No!" The little girl shook her head and said, "Grandma said that the food allocated at home is not enough, so we have to save some!"
Leng Yu was dumbfounded on the spot. She originally thought that the old lady was reluctant to take out the delicious food, but now it seems that is not the case. She took out all the most delicious things and even gave her the last grain.
She was so moved by the cold words that she wanted to cry, tears welling up in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said: "Chen Xiao...I don't care...I don't care what you use
I have to help them in any way!"
"Yeah!" Chen Xiao nodded, and then said, "Shouldn't we eat something first?"
"Okay!" Leng Yu nodded. This time she was not picky, but ate all the ugly-looking food. In fact, it tasted okay in the mouth, and it was not unpleasant at all. The two of them
He finished the food quickly. Chen Xiao hurriedly unloaded some dry food from the horse. These dry food were some high-quality spirit animal meat. These things can be used to make soup or stew. They are actually quite delicious.
of.
"Grandma, this is some dry food we brought with us. We have some extra for you!" Chen Xiao was carrying a bag containing dozens of kilograms of dried meat.
"No need!" The old lady shook her head and said: "The young people in our village go hunting and often bring some meat, which is enough for our mother-in-law and grandson!"
"That's okay, just leave it alone. It's a waste for us to carry this meat on the road!" Chen Xiao asked again and again, but the old lady could only accept it embarrassedly. Chen Xiao picked up a piece of dried meat and gave it to the little girl, saying
: "Here, have a piece, it's delicious!"
The little girl was very curious. She had never eaten dried meat that had been marinated like this. She took a bite. Although it was a little hard, it was very chewy and tasted delicious. The little girl said excitedly: "Grandma,
You can eat this directly, it’s delicious!”
The old lady patted the little girl's head lovingly, then turned around and put the bag of dried meat into the room. Although the night was not deep, in such a sparse village and surrounded by mountains, there were often animals.
Human beings are infested, so the villagers living in this area basically don’t go out at night. They all stay at home. Those who have wives hug their wives, and those who don’t have wives hug their pillows.
The old lady asked: "Are you coming from Cyprus?"
"Yes, have you been to Cyprus too?" Chen Xiao asked curiously.
"Yes, I went there when I was young!" The old lady opened up her chatter, and then said: "In the past, our family was considered a wealthy family. My husband was hardworking and capable. At that time, we also had a Pegasus like yours at home. At that time,
I often go to Cyprus with my husband. Unfortunately, my husband later went hunting in the mountains and became disabled, so the burden of the family fell on my son, who was only 18 years old. My son lived up to his expectations and shouldered the burden...
"
The old lady slowly recounted the past, recalling the glory of her family. Later, the old lady's son went hunting in the mountains and never came back. More than a year later, her daughter-in-law ran away from home, and the old man with leg problems went up the mountains to look for her.
, vowed to find his son's body even if he died. Unfortunately, once the old man went up the mountain, he never came back. Later, he heard that his husband and son were eaten by wild beasts, and even
There are no bones left.
From then on, the old lady became worried. She had a granddaughter who was waiting for food at home, and she had to rethink her livelihood. Everything that could be sold was sold, and what could not be sold was basically transformed into other things. A wealthy woman who was originally wealthy
The family gradually declined and became destitute. Time passed by and the granddaughter was already five years old. The old lady also became older in the suffering.
This is not only a portrayal of her family, it is also a microcosm of thousands of ordinary families in the fairyland. After listening to the old lady crying like Xianglin's wife, Chen Xiao returned to the room with cold words. In fact, he had been
They were all looking forward to whether something would happen tonight. Because he was full of interest in Leng Yu's flawless body, and he was even more full of expectations.
"Why are you so anxious? I haven't heard what I've said yet!" Leng Yu complained while shedding tears. As expected, women are made of water, and even a tragic story can make her burst into tears. Leng Yu
While wiping her tears, Yu complained that Chen Xiao was a cold-blooded animal with no conscience. Despite this, she was dragged into the room by Chen Xiao.
Fortunately, the bedding on the bed was clean, and after being exposed to the sun, it was filled with the smell of sunshine. Chen Xiao lay down on it without hesitation. Leng Yu said hurriedly: "Chen Xiao, didn't you say you would
Sleeping on the floor? Why...why did you run into my bed?"
