Just when Xia Qiyue was so amused that she couldn't help but laugh, someone behind her called out her name.
"Xia Daya?"
Xia Qiyue was stunned for a moment and didn't react. She thought she was calling someone else. After all, she had never used the name Xia Daya since she came here, so she was a little slow to react.
"Is Xia Daya really you?"
But the man behind him ran over in a few steps, stood in front of Xia Qiyue and the others, and shouted again.
Xia Qiyue raised her head and looked at the person in front of her, and searched in her memory for a while. She looked familiar, and called out her name. Although it was a nickname, it was also her name. This must be...
"Lin Tongsheng, why are you here?" Xia Qiyue accurately said the name of the person in front of him.
Yes, this person was the childhood sweetheart of the original owner before he got married. Before the disaster year, that is, when he was seventeen years old, he was admitted to Tongsheng. The original owner liked him very much, but it was unknown whether he liked the original owner or not.
Ever since the original owner was sold to Lao An's family as his daughter-in-law, the two had no contact with each other anymore. The original owner was once worried about the person in front of him, but later heard that he went to the county to study and got married.
Speaking of which, Lin Tongsheng in front of me is related to the Lin family who killed the original owner's parents. He is the son of Lin Xiucai's eldest brother.
"It's really you. I didn't expect you to be so graceful after not seeing me for several years!" Lin Jianxin said with a gentle smile, "I haven't seen you since you got married!"
When Xia Qiyue faced the original owner's white moonlight and cinnabar mole, she couldn't find her attitude toward him. She could only nod and asked, "Is Lin Tongsheng living in Jiuli Town? Or is there something wrong here?"
Lin Jianxin scratched his head, "Why are you calling me Lin Tongsheng? How many points are there? You can still call me Lin Erlang like before!"
After saying this, without waiting for Xia Qiyue's response, Xuan'er said, "Mother, who is this uncle?"
The little guy puffed up his chest in a serious manner and looked up at Xiang Lin Jianxin, as if he was afraid that the other party was going to snatch his mother away.
Xia Qiyue couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw her son's adorable appearance. She touched her son's head and introduced:
"This is my mother's old friend, you can call me Uncle Lin!"
Xuan'er politely called "Uncle Lin!"
Ke'er immediately shouted, "Hello, Uncle Lin!"
When Ling'er arrived, she lowered her head, as if she was a little embarrassed.
"These three are my children! Ling'er, Xuan'er, and Ke'er!" Xia Qiyue introduced her children to Lin Jianxin again, which was also out of politeness.
"Hey! Good, good! So good!" Lin Jianxin responded with a smile. "I didn't bring anything with me when I went out. How about we find a restaurant and I'll treat you, mother and son to a meal?"
It was inappropriate to stand on the street and reminisce about old times, but Xia Qiyue shook her head, "No, no, we've all eaten. We'll have a chance another day! If Lin Tongsheng has something to do, go ahead and go home. It's time for us to go home!"
What a joke, why did they forget when they went shopping? They were eating too much to eat. Where else could they eat? Besides, Xia Qiyue subconsciously didn’t want to have more contact with this person.
It’s not that he looks down on her, but Lin Tongsheng is quite a good person, gentle and gentle, and his behavior and speech are just right. He doesn’t mean to offend her, and there is nothing inappropriate or inappropriate behavior. It’s just because he is the original owner’s Bai.
Moonlight and Cinnabar Moles, and as many people know, she just wants to take a break.
Now it seems that people don't have any thoughts about her in that regard. Knowing that she has a child, she has no unnecessary emotions. It should be that the original owner also likes her wishfully.
"Um... I'm already a scholar. If you really don't want to call me by my name, you can call me Lin Xiucai!" Lin Jianxin scratched his head again and said a little embarrassed.
Xia Qiyue suddenly realized, no wonder he didn't want her to call him Lin Tongsheng. It turned out that he was already a scholar now.
"Ah, congratulations, I haven't seen you in these years and you have reached a new level, Lin Xiucai!"
Lin Jianxin scratched his head in embarrassment and nodded naively, "Thank you very much! By the way, do you live here?"
Xia Qiyue saw that the other party was not maliciously inquiring about their whereabouts, so she said generously, "Yes, I rented a small courtyard in the town to live in after I escaped from the famine. What about you?"
The two unconsciously walked slowly along the street and chatted. Xia Qiyue learned that Lin Jianxin's daughter-in-law and child were attacked and killed by bandits on the way to escape the desert. Originally, he also had a two-year-old son, but he lost it.
He lost his wife and children, and almost lost his name. He slowly recovered with the help of his tribe.
Now, working as a cashier in a restaurant, I only earn 800 yuan a month, barely making ends meet.
He was the second eldest son in the family. His family fled famine to the capital and were arranged to settle in Xinghua Village, 20 kilometers south of Jiuli Town.
He worked as a bookkeeper by himself and could not travel back and forth every day. He was looking for a cheap place to stay when he happened to meet Xia Qiyue on the street.
The two chatted for a while, and then the three children went to the shop across the street to watch, and then they separated.
Lin Jianxin was looking for a house, while Xia Qiyue was dragged by his son to a bookstore across the street. As soon as Xuaner entered, he was like a fish meeting water, choosing back and forth in front of rows of bookshelves.
"My dear lady, has your child become enlightened at such a young age?" The bookstore owner was surprised to see Xuan'er choosing books carefully and conscientiously as if she understood something, and asked Xia Qiyue, who was standing aside with a smile, in disbelief.
"That's strange. The old man looks at that child as if he recognizes the words in the book." The owner of the bookstore is actually an old man with a gray beard, dressed as a scholar. If you didn't look at his face, you would really think that he is
A scholar.
Xia Qiyue smiled and said nothing. On the other hand, her two daughters showed little interest in books. Ke'er even squatted on the ground and started playing with her dove car.
Xia Qiyue waited for a while but didn't see her son coming. She walked forward slowly and saw that the little guy was holding a travel diary in one hand and slowly turning the pages of the book with the other hand, reading carefully.
She poked her head over and found that there were pictures in the travel book. Although the little guy didn't know the words, he looked at the pictures very seriously. He scratched his head for a while, as if he didn't understand, and was thinking. Then he nodded again, as if he was reading.
Got it, like an old scholar.
"Xuan'er, do you like reading?" Xia Qiyue quietly stood next to the child and asked.
Xuan'er nodded sincerely, "Yes, mother, there are a lot of things I don't know in the book. Xuan'er likes to read it!"
Only then did Xia Qiyue realize that children in ancient times would be enlightened very early. Xuan'er liked reading so much, so she might consider enlightening the children.
So, he nodded, "Then Xuan'er can choose a few books he likes, and my mother will give them to Xuan'er!"
Xuan'er shook her head again, "No need, mother, Xuan'er has already read the book, there's no need to buy it!"
Books are so expensive. What if my mother spends all her money and my sister doesn’t have enough to eat?
