Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 982
Xiaotao stared at him, for some reason, she always felt that he was very attractive, and there was an indescribable tremor in her heart. Could this be what people call eye-catching?
In this world, there are not many people who fall in love with her, Xuanyuan Heng is one, and this Hongyi is also one.

"Uncle Qian, why are you here? I'm cooking. Would you like to go in and have a bite?" Hong Yi opened the door, smiling honestly and kindly. His tall figure almost filled the small gatehouse.

Afterwards, he also saw Xiaotao and the carriage behind her.

But Xiaotao was dressed as a man at the moment, and he only regarded her as a little brother, and nodded at her.

Village head Qian waved his hand and explained the situation to him, "Hongyi, it's like this, this little brother is passing by our village with his master, the weather is bad, his master is sick, and he wants to find a place to rent .”

Xiaotao was afraid that Hongyi would not understand, so she added: "If it is convenient for you to let it go here, I would like to rent it for a few more days. When the weather is warmer, I will take Master away. If you find it inconvenient, we can also stay for a few days first , I will find another house as soon as possible, and I will also pay your rent, so I won't embarrass you or make you suffer."

Hongyi grinned, "What's the problem, what's the disadvantage? Walking outside, no one has any difficulties. It's okay. If you want to live, you don't need to pay rent. Anyway, my house is empty and empty. People live in it, and they are popular!"

Xiaotao didn't expect him to be so open-minded, which made her feel embarrassed, "I'm very grateful that you let us live, but the rent still has to be paid..."

"I said no rent, a man means what he says," Hong Yi said firmly.

The Village Chief Qian next to him also smiled and patted Xiaotao on the shoulder, "Don't argue with Hongyi. If he says no, then definitely don't. Hongyi has a stubborn temper and is very polite, so you can rest assured. If you need anything, come to my house and find me."

Xiaotao was flattered by their generosity, "This..."

"Xiao Tao," Ji Langzhong lifted the curtain, wanting to get out of the car.

Xiaotao heard his voice and hurried back to help him get off the carriage.

Ji Langzhong bowed to Village Chief Qian and Hongyi and nodded his thanks, "The old man was not healthy and fell ill on the way. My master and apprentice are barefoot doctors. Seeing that I am old, I originally wanted to take me with me." Find a place to settle down, but I didn’t expect to pass by here and get sick, so I have to disturb you, I’m really sorry, if the village chief doesn’t mind, when the old man’s disease gets better, he will see a doctor for the villagers as a thank you.”

"Ah, you are a doctor of You Fang," Village Chief Qian was moved when he heard that, "Then there is nothing to say, you just feel free to live here, and don't worry about other things. It’s not too late to see a doctor, Hongyi, help the old doctor in quickly, it’s windy outside, you have to take care of it carefully, if you need anything, just come and tell me, I’ll solve it for you.”

In the remote countryside, there is a lack of medical care.

To see a doctor, you have to go to the town.Most of the time, when there is a minor illness, they don’t want to go to see it. They spend it at home. If the foundation is good, they will heal themselves. At that time, there was no money to cure him, so he could only wait to die.

So now suddenly an old doctor comes here, and he is from You Fang. Such doctors are more worthy of respect, because they are not for money or fame, otherwise they will be happier where they stay than when You Fang came.

That's what Hongyi thought at first, he moved out of the way, "Please come in quickly, I'll tie up this horse for you, my house doesn't have a stable, I'll figure out a way in the afternoon."

Village Chief Qian said: "Take the horse to my house. My house has a cattle pen, so we can make do with it for a few days if we lock it together."

Hong Yi thought about it, "Okay, I'll clean up the backyard tomorrow and build a horse stable, little brother, do you want to move the things in the carriage?"

He was really enthusiastic, and while asking Xiaotao if she wanted to move things, he had already started to unload the saddle diligently.

Village head Qian helped take the horse away, and before leaving, he reassured Xiaotao that they were not bad people and would not take her horse to sell.

Xiao Tao shook her head indifferently, anyway, the old horse was dying, even if she sold it, she couldn't sell it for much money.

Hongyi welcomed the two of them into the larger one of the two houses, "This is where I live, and we also sleep here. The Kang in my house is very big. There used to be a Kang in the house where my parents lived, but it collapsed." , I thought no one would sleep, so I didn’t repair it, the three of us make do with it, and I will repair the kang tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Ji Langzhong turned to look at Xiaotao.

sleeping together?Although he knew that Hongyi's words were unintentional, and he would never know Xiaotao's daughter's identity, but whether he knew it or not, he shouldn't have slept on a kang.

Xiaotao knew the master's concern, so she patted his hand comfortingly, "It's good to sleep together, and it's warm when you sleep together, the kang can be heated, which is good for you," and then she said to the master in a voice that only two people could hear : "You sleep in the middle, and you don't need to take off your clothes when you sleep in winter. It's okay."

After finishing speaking, she looked up at Hongyi, "Then thank you, big brother. Can you burn this kang first? I want my master to keep warm. I will collect the things in the carriage myself later."

Hong Yi looked at her with a deep smile, "You are so filial, wait, I will go to burn the kang right away." He opened the bamboo mat curtain and went out.

Xiaotao helped the master to sit down on the edge of the kang, then looked around the room.

Just like his people, they are clean and tidy, the furniture is broken, but there is no dust, and the quilts on the kang are neatly folded, it doesn't look like a man's house at all.

Ji Langzhong saw it, and said to Xiaotao meaningfully: "Teacher, what do you think of him, what a boy!"

Xiaotao wandered around the room, not paying much attention to what the master said, "Of course he is a good person, otherwise why would he take us in."

Ji Langzhong sighed, "Xiaotao, do you still remember what master told you? Master's wish is that you can find an honest man and live in peace and stability. You'd better not think about those unrealistic things."

Xiaotao put down the half-carved wooden figurine on the table. Unexpectedly, Hongyi's hand was quite skillful, and he carved it so similarly, "Master, you have never thought about things that you shouldn't think about. Don't worry, I know Those rich and powerful days are not suitable for me, you see, am I accompanying you to retire in the countryside?"

"It's good if you understand. By the way, it's not good for you to wear boy's clothes all day long. You should change it back in two days. Master will not live long. Master doesn't want to see you disguised as a man, so master will think it's right." I can't live with your parents."

"Huh? Change into women's clothes? Why? What does this have to do with my parents? They gave birth to me but didn't raise me. You didn't give birth to me but you raised me so much. You don't have to care about them," Xiaotao said. Although his tone remained the same and his expression remained the same, the slight sadness could not be concealed no matter what.

Ji Langzhong didn't have the energy to explain to her again, "If you tell me to change it, you can change it. Do you want Master to die in peace? Cough cough!" He covered his mouth, coughing so hard he couldn't breathe.

Seeing him like this, Xiaotao had no choice but to cling to him, patting his back and coaxing him, "Okay, I'll change, I'll change in two days, it's all over, right?"

There was smoke rising from the eaves of the corridor. Not long after, Hong Yi lifted the curtain and came in, and said with a smile: "The kang is already on fire, let the master rest on the kang, I will move the things in the carriage in, and fry two more." dishes, we can eat."

"I'll help you," Xiaotao knew that he was warm-hearted, but she couldn't just sit still.

Hongyi did not refuse this time, "Then you wait on the master to get on the kang first, and then you can help him later."

Ji Langzhong observed the interaction between the two of them, God knows how much he likes Hong Yi.

The first time he saw his eyes, he knew that Hongyi was a child worthy of Xiaotao's entrustment for life!
A person's expression can be faked, and a mask can be worn, but the eyes cannot deceive people.

Whether it is true enthusiasm or fake, you can tell by looking at the eyes.

Although Xiaotao is careless, she is very careful with her master.

She helped Ji Langzhong sit on the bed, squatted down to take off the cold and worn-out shoes and socks, and then put the bedding behind him, and there was a quilt on him, "Master, you sit first, I will go out and help you." That big brother, don’t worry, we won’t take advantage of him, I will go to the mountains to collect herbs in the afternoon, sell the money, buy some good things, and return his favor.”

Ji Langzhong's eyes were red, "Girl, Master has dragged you down."

"Master, if you say such things again, I will ignore you. Don't you all talk about raising children to prevent old age? I am your son. It is not a matter of course for you to provide for you and serve you. Take a good rest. Don't think so much about it. Yes, I'm going out first."

Xiaotao walked out quickly and stood under the eaves, feeling very heavy.

Master's illness is neither incurable nor incurable.It's just that he is getting old, and his internal organs are declining. Even if he recovers this time, it will still be gradual, and it will get worse day by day, and there is no cure for medicine.

"Hey, why are you standing here? It's so cold," Hong Yi hugged the quilt in the carriage and walked towards her.

Xiaotao hurriedly stepped aside, collected her thoughts, swung her arms, and said with a smile: "There is more, I'll move."

Hong Yi sent the things in, and then came out. Looking at Xiao Tao's rolled up sleeves, he felt something was wrong, so he took a second look, "Little brother, your arms are really white, like a girl."

"Don't call me little brother, call me Xiaotao, I'm the result of wearing long sleeves every day, unlike you guys, who are shirtless in summer, of course I'll get tanned!"

"That's right," Hong Yi didn't delve into it. Besides, he also felt that Xiaotao was young and not a farmer, so she should be more white.

But when he turned around while holding the things, he found that Xiao Tao had a small body, like a stunted boy.

"Xiao Tao, you have to eat more in the future, or you won't grow taller, which will be bad."

"Well, you're right, I will definitely look up to you in the future, and hope to grow up like you too," she held back a smile, thinking that if she was like him, she would probably be a dinosaur among women.
