Chapter 9

The only high table with bean rice and steaming hot soup was found to be the most common loach, but how did you get the loach in this season?He looked around for a figure, saw no one in the house, hurriedly put down the rice, walked to the kitchen, saw a small body squatting by the stove, burning wood, his eyes suddenly filled with moisture, it felt really good warmth.

Old Man Gao squatted beside You Xiang, his tone trembling slightly: "How can Xiang'er do this, look, her face is all stained." He stretched out his hands and pinched his sleeves to help her wipe, but he didn't know Thinking of something, he put it down hastily.You Xiang glanced at the scar on his right hand, her heart tightened, her dark eyes darkened a bit, she smiled sweetly: "I'll boil some hot water for Daddy to wash, it will be fine soon." Every time she saw When old man Gao came back, he washed indiscriminately with well water. Although it was autumn, it was cool at night.

Old man Gao only felt his throat choked up and couldn't speak.The two finished their meal tacitly.Today's soup made the two of them steaming hot. Although the house is very cold, it feels warm in their hearts. People often say that the gold and silver nests are not as good as their own dog kennels. At this moment, this dilapidated old house became theirs. A home in the heart of the two.

As soon as old man Gao goes out, Youxiang will go to the field to dig loach and shrimps. The more you dig, the more experienced you become. Sometimes you can count how many shrimps and loach there are when you look at a place. With some burdens, she also slowly got used to the bean rice, drinking it with soup seems to be quite delicious.

After two months like this, Youxiang's body has gradually become stronger, and she has the strength to do some things within her power, such as helping old man Gao wash clothes, do housework, and catch loaches.

However, Youxiang's body has also undergone some changes in the past two months. She has nausea sooner or later. She has never taken this feeling to heart. Maybe it's because of hunger, or maybe it's because she racked her brains for food and clothing every day, and there is nothing else Thoughts, so the days are lived like this.

The old man Gao recently found a job and followed the cargo ship on a short distance, mainly because he was worried that Youxiang would not be at ease at home alone.It takes about a month to go there, sometimes there are some delays, but the wages for the trip back are very considerable, and you can get two taels of silver. If you eat millet porridge a day, you can eat it for more than two months. If you eat bean rice If it is, you can eat it for more than half a year. This is really a good job. Many young people in Mojia Village are scrambling to sign up.

Why did the owner choose old man Gao? This story still has some twists and turns. Old man Gao routinely went to the pier to fish for work that day, but the person in charge of the pier did not show any good looks. After waiting for a long time, he did not find an opportunity, so he squatted in depression I was in a daze on the side of the river bank, and didn't dare to go back directly.

Unexpectedly, a ball of "goods" fell from the cargo ship and hit him. With all his strength, old man Gao insisted on propping up the "goods". He didn't know what it was until he stabilized himself Cargo, I saw an eleven or twelve-year-old child jumping off his shoulders, his face was as pale as paper, and he was obviously very frightened.But the servants on the boat ran down the boat anxiously, pulling the young master, all of them turned blue with fright.The old man Gao was frightened by the battle and was dumbfounded on the spot, his heart was pounding, luckily he didn't offend the nobleman.

In the end, it was the young master who came to his senses first, there was already a girl and woman stumbling down from the pier, crying in a mess, the young master frowned with his hands, and ordered sharply: "Don't cry!"
