With the empire's great victory, the dark clouds in the sky that had been gloomy for more than a month finally dispersed, making people wonder.
The sun shines down on the snow, making the sky and earth become more transparent and brighter. Although the temperature is still very low, it makes the mood surprisingly good.
Jiang Xingchen was like this. He had been drowsy while being carried by the old man on his back. After the weather cleared, he no longer felt sleepy. Especially with the village in sight, he became even more energetic.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Jiang Xingchen refused to let the old man carry him, insisted on getting down to the ground, and strode into the village.
"Master Jiang, you are back!" A villager shouted excitedly when he saw Jiang Xingchen. Almost instantly, the whole village ran out to greet him.
Jiang Xingchen, who was moved in his heart, calmed the villagers and saw Meier running out of the lord's mansion.
"Brother!" Meier ran up to her, holding Jiang Xingchen's hand tightly, and asked quickly: "Are you not injured when you went to the front line? Have you met anyone from the enemy country? Are you tired..."
The little girl spoke very fast and asked a lot of questions in succession. Jiang Xingchen didn't pay attention to what she asked. At this moment, his heart was filled with the deep concern and longing brought out by Meier!
After asking the villagers to go home, Jiang Xingchen led Mei'er back and said softly: "Brother is fine. He has only been away for more than ten days. You..."
"I have never been away from my brother for such a long time!" Before Jiang Xingchen could finish speaking, Meier lowered her head and said, her eyes filled with mist.
During the ten days since her brother left, Meier had nothing else on her mind. She was only thinking about how her brother was doing at the front line. Although she only went fishing, she just couldn't let go. Apart from taking medicine every day, she sometimes couldn't even eat.
Hearing Mei'er's words, Jiang Xingchen's steps immediately stopped, he slowly knelt down, held Mei'er's face in his hands, looked deeply into her eyes, and said softly: "Brother will never leave you like this in the future.
It’s been a long time!”
"Yeah!" Mei'er pursed her lips, feeling happy in her heart. She wanted to laugh, but for some reason her nose felt a little sore.
"Okay! Look at you, you said you took care of me before. I've only been gone for a long time, and you've lost a lot of weight. You've just gained some weight, and you've fallen off again!" Jiang Xingchen laughed and joked.
Meier.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a childish voice suddenly came from beside me: "Sister Mei'er is tired and thin. She cooks for that big uncle every day..."
"Ah?" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, turned his head, and saw Ni'er speaking seriously with gestures on her face.
"Big uncle, what's going on?" Jiang Xingchen asked directly, regardless of Ni'er being only five years old.
"That big uncle may have eaten it. Sister Mei'er cooks so much for every meal..." As she said that, Ni'er gestured with her two little hands before continuing: "It's not even enough for him to eat alone!
"
Biting her finger and thinking for a while, Nier added: "Besides, that big uncle is so bad that he doesn't care about others when he eats. Sister Meier sometimes can't eat... and I can't eat either... wuwu~"
Before Nier could finish her words, a big hand covered her entire little face, and Zhao Danqing's smiling expression immediately appeared: "Brother, you are back, we have been waiting for you for several days!"
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and immediately showed a look of surprise: "Who was the big uncle? It turned out to be you~"
Reaching out and pulling away Zhao Danqing's hand covering Nier, Jiang Xingchen said with a cold face: "You are really good at knowing that my sister is sick and you still let her cook! Forget it, you actually..."
"Brother, don't listen to this little girl's nonsense. How can I ignore my sister? She couldn't eat it by herself, so I helped clean it. Aren't I afraid that the leftovers would be spoiled?" Zhao Danqing hurriedly explained.
"That little girl is talking nonsense! How old is she? How can she lie? She also helps with cleaning. It's so cold that the food could be spoiled... Do you think I believe you or her?"
"Little girl!" When Zhao Danqing saw this situation, he immediately changed his target. After squatting down, he showed what he thought was the kindest smile and said to Ni'er: "Brother, I promise not to eat everything in the future. I will leave some for you."
Food! Is yesterday’s fish delicious? I’ll save it for you later, but you have to tell the truth..."
"Wow~" Nier grinned and cried, kicked Zhao Danqing hard, turned around and ran to Jiang Xingchen, pulled his pants and shouted: "Sir, you want to take me to see goldfish!"
"Pfft!" Jiang Xingchen spurted out a mouthful of old blood, choking and coughing! He said this once when he was mocking the old man, and the little girl learned it.
"Don't talk nonsense in front of children from now on. It will destroy the next generation!" Jiang Xingchen blamed himself.
Mei'er next to her covered her mouth with her little hand, almost laughing, and her shoulders kept shaking.
The old man behind them had veins popping out on his forehead, and Jiang Xingchen's sarcastic words at that time echoed in his mind: "You look like this, thirty years young, and you are just a weirdo who tricked a little girl into looking at goldfish, and you are covered in blood all over your body."
Totally obscene!"
At that time, these words shocked him so much that he couldn't reply for the first time. Especially after he understood what the strange man meant, he felt ready to kill Jiang Xingchen to vent his anger.
Hearing Nier say this again at this time, one can imagine how the old man felt.
Zhao Danqing was dumbfounded and couldn't understand the meaning of these words at all. He mumbled in his mouth: "Weird sorghum, what do you mean? Is it so funny... Oops!"
Just as he was talking, the old man jumped up and raised his hand with a bang.
"Why did you hit me?" Zhao Danqing asked with a sad face. This old man was someone he couldn't mess with.
"Because you are lewd!" The old man had no way of explaining it, so he just walked into the yard without saying anything.
Jiang Xingchen had just taken a breath, and when he heard the old man's words, he wanted to spit out blood again, and his waist was bent due to coughing. In the end, Meier helped him into the yard.
Zhao Danqing stared blankly at the backs of everyone, his mind turning into a ball of mush.
At this time, Ni'er, who had been following Jiang Xingchen, suddenly turned her head and made a face at him.
"Ouch!" Zhao Danqing was hit so hard that he fell down and was actually fooled by a five-year-old girl.
Jiang Xingchen took a breath and shook his head with a smile: "This Nizi is still a scumbag!" Of course he knew that Nier, a weird and elf girl, was deliberately retaliating against Zhao Danqing. Needless to say, the little girl came to rub her.
The meal turned out to be empty, and all was eaten by the big eater.
At this time, Mo Hongxian and Wanrou, who had been in the room, also heard the noise and came out.
"Sister Hongxian, Sister Wanrou, why are you here?" Jiang Xingchen asked the question in his heart when he saw them.
"Of course I'm here to see the spectacle of catching 30,000 kilograms of fish in one net!" Mo Hongxian explained, stepped forward and patted Jiang Xingchen on the shoulder: "Little brother, don't let us down!"
"Hey!" Jiang Xingchen was completely speechless, wailing in his heart: "Why are you here again? If you don't shoot people, if you don't call me little brother, you will die~"
At this time, the girl Mei'er actually turned to look at him. Jiang Xingchen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth a few times. He clearly understood the meaning from the girl's eyes, which was the word "elephant".
"Destroying three views~" Jiang Xingchen was so depressed that he wanted to bang his head against the wall, and secretly swore that he would never draw Crayon Shin-chan for Meier again.
In the end, Wanrou spoke to get him out: "They came to see you fishing, but I came to you to study dance music. It's almost the end of December, and there are still more than two months until the New Year performance."
Yue, you have to take care of me too!"
"Sister Wanrou, haven't I been busy? Let me rest for two days and think about it again!" Jiang Xingchen said.
He is also looking forward to the New Year performance. Originally he was not too keen on music and dance, but since the appearance of Mingzhi Zhen, his singing and control of sound waves have made him very comfortable with dance music. In addition, he is also very good at dancing.
I like the scene of standing on the stage and watching people cheering, and my original attitude has changed drastically.
"If you want to fish, you'd better wait first. In Bibo Lake these days, all the fish are being caught!"
"It's okay, don't worry about fishing!" Zhao Danqing finally recovered and stepped forward and said: "You must not be eating well at the front line for so many days. You should make up for it first when you come back! I think I will make dumplings. I am also very long.
There’s no time for dumplings!”
"Yeah! The dumplings are good!" Mo Hongxian also nodded and added: "You prepared a lot of garlic, don't forget to braid it!"
"I'll go! You're really taking advantage of your braids!" Jiang Xingchen's body was shaken by the blow.
"Sir, don't listen to them. Eating dumplings is very troublesome. I heard what sister Mei'er said. You have to make stuffings, knead the dough, roll out the dough, and wrap..." Nier said immaturely.
The child's voice sounded like the sound of nature to Jiang Xingchen's ears.
"This little girl is still sensible. I love her in vain! Look at you, you are still brothers. Don't you see that I am tired and sleepy..."
After glancing at Mo Hongxian and Zhao Danqing, Jiang Xingchen was about to praise Xiao Nizi when he heard Nier say again: "Sir, let's make egg fried rice. Egg fried rice is also delicious!"
The result was reversed in an instant. Jiang Xingchen didn't react for a moment. It wasn't until Mo Hongxian and others burst into laughter that he suddenly howled: "Oh my God~ Do you still have any names? Don't you see how exhausted I am?"
Already..."
Wait, Jiang Xingchen suddenly stopped in the middle of howling, raised his head and asked Meier: "Egg fried rice! Has this girl ever eaten egg fried rice?"
"Yes!" Mei'er nodded and explained: "You and the old man left in a hurry that day and didn't finish the egg fried rice. But when Ni'er came, she ate it all!"
"Oh!" Jiang Xingchen breathed out and nodded: "That's right, then..."
Before he finished speaking, Mei'er suddenly rolled her eyes and said: "Later, I thought this egg fried rice was good, so I also tried to make it! Anyway, my brother couldn't hatch those wild pheasant eggs, so I...
"
"Oops!" Jiang Xingchen was hit repeatedly and threw himself forward, hitting Mei'er directly.
