Han Xiao encountered a landslide during his graduation trip and thought he was doomed. To his surprise, he woke up to find himself transmigrated into a sickly young boy burdened with the name of a ...
The meal was prepared by Old Mrs. Chen. It was not delicious. Farmers generally eat light food and rarely eat oily food. The young master was used to eating delicacies from land and sea and did not find it disgusting. He ate it with gusto.
For the young master, who had been eating barbecue for four days, which he had grilled himself, he could now even eat a plate of raw wild vegetables.
So the food cooked by Old Mrs. Chen is considered quite good.
Han Xiao felt a little distressed when he saw the young master, but the awkward thing was that neither of them had any money, and they couldn't order food like a rich man.
It's good enough to be able to fill my stomach.
Han Xiao still felt a little guilty, so after dinner he stopped Chen Dazhui who wanted to rest.
"Brother Dazhu, excuse me for interrupting you. I want to ask you something." Han Xiao asked softly.
Chen Dazhu was an honest farmer, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a moment when he saw Han Xiao being so polite.
He scratched his head and asked embarrassedly, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Han Xiao thought for a moment before asking, "I wonder if Brother Chen knows how to get to Qingping Town? My husband and I got separated from our family and ran into some bad guys, so we ended up in Changhe Village."
"Qingping Town? I've never heard of it..." Chen Dazhu had never been to the county town. The farthest place he had been to was the town.
When he heard Han Xiao asking about Qingping Town, he really didn't know.
Han Xiao was not disappointed. Due to transportation problems, people in ancient times rarely went out, and most people stayed in their own little piece of land.
So while he was somewhat disappointed with Chen Dazhu's answer, it was also within his expectations.
"Can you do me a favor?" Han Xiao handed the jade pendant from the young master to Chen Dazhu.
Chen Dazhu had seen this jade pendant when he rescued them. Both of them were unconscious at the time, and Chen Dazhu did not take it for himself.
Therefore, Han Xiao has great faith in Chen Dazhu's character.
Chen Dazhu retreated in panic when he saw the jade pendant: "I...I don't want it, you keep it..."
Han Xiao looked at the honest Chen Dazhu and laughed, "Brother Dazhu, you misunderstood. I want to ask you for a favor. Take this jade pendant to the county town and find a place called Yipinlou. Someone will follow you there, and you can bring him to see me."
Chen Dazhu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Well, this is easy. I just need to catch Uncle Chen's ox cart early tomorrow morning."
Seeing that Chen Dazhu agreed very readily, Han Xiao couldn't help but sigh at the kindness of the poor working people. They didn't even know his identity and background, but were still willing to help. This kind of character is really rare in modern times.
It seems that everyone Han Xiao met after coming here was very nice. Is this the difference in environment?
After instructing Chen Dazhu, Han Xiao went back to lie down and recuperate. His injuries were too severe. Being able to get out of bed and walk was already his limit. He really couldn't stand any more.
He could only ask Chen Dazhu to help go to the county town to find someone. Han Xiao believed that Lu Qingyun and Ruan Xiuran had been looking for him, so it should be no problem to ask Chen Dazhu to help deliver a message.
After meeting Lu Qingyun and the others, I must compensate Chen Dazhu and the others.
After making up his mind, Han Xiao fell into a deep sleep. The young master continued to help Chen Dazhui at home, doing some housework within his ability.
You can’t eat and live for free, right?
The next day, Chen Dazhu got up and went out before dawn. Han Xiao was lying on the hard bed. When he heard Chen Dazhu closing the door, he knew that he must have gone to borrow an ox cart.
Taking a look at the young master Han Xiao who was sleeping soundly in his arms, he knew that he would be able to leave here soon. He didn't know what the situation was like at home.
I hope they are all okay.
Han Xiao was thinking about something and couldn't fall asleep anymore. Through the sunlight outside the crack in the door, Han Xiao stroked the young master's back from time to time. The young master has lost a lot of weight recently. He didn't have much meat on his body to begin with, and now his back is even thinner. He must take good care of himself after returning home.
Feeling himself becoming more and more awake, Han Xiao put on a coat, got out of bed and went outside to take a look.
Old Mrs. Chen also woke up. Seeing Han Xiao up so early, she asked in surprise, "Young man? Why are you awake so early?"
Han Xiao rubbed his temples and breathed in the fresh air unique to the mountains before returning: "I just heard Brother Chen go out, so I got up to check."
Old Mrs. Chen smiled and nodded kindly: "He just can't sit still. I don't know what he's doing out so early?"
While talking to Han Xiao, the old lady was making breakfast quickly. The breakfast was ordinary brown rice porridge and coarse flour steamed buns. Considering that Han Xiao was a wounded man, Old Lady Chen also specially made a bowl of egg custard.
Han Xiao felt like he was back in his childhood when he helped to light the fire.
By the time breakfast was ready, it was already bright outside. The young master came in, rubbing his eyes, and called out sweetly, "Grandma Chen."
Then he stuck to Han Xiao's side and wanted to help. Han Xiao stopped the young master's outstretched hand and said, "These are simple. I can do it. Go wash up and eat later."
The young master hesitated for a moment before nodding obediently and going to fetch water to wash his face.
Han Xiao fed all the pigs in the yard and felt an indescribable feeling when he saw them fighting for the food.
Looking at the young master washing his face obediently, Han Xiao felt that he and the young master were just an ordinary farming couple, working from sunrise to sunset every day.
This kind of life seems pretty good when I think about it.
After the young master finished washing up, he saw Han Xiao still staring at him in a daze, so he walked up to him and playfully shook his finger in front of Han Xiao: "Husband, what are you thinking about?"
Han Xiao grabbed the young master's calloused hand and said, "Nothing, let's go eat."
The young master's life experience destined them to be in conflict. Instead of craving for a stable life, it is better to face it head-on and eliminate the factors that are unfavorable to the young master one by one.
"Well, I just saw Grandma Chen made egg custard for you. You must take good care of your body, my husband." The young master kept nagging Han Xiao to take good care of himself.
Han Xiao also knew that and gently touched the young master's head: "As you command, my little housekeeper."
Han Xiao thought it was quite interesting when he heard his neighbor next door call his wife "housekeeper".
The young master smiled shyly after hearing this, took Han Xiao's hand and said nothing, tacitly accepting the title of "Little Housekeeper".
After feeding the pigs, the two of them went to the kitchen for breakfast. Grandma Chen was already waiting for them.
Seeing the two of them come in together, he patted the table and told them to eat quickly, otherwise the porridge would get cold if they waited any longer.
Old Lady Chen placed the egg custard in front of Han Xiao and said, "You are seriously injured. You must eat something good. Young people should not think that you don't care just because you have a good physique."
Han Xiao lowered his head and took it. He saw that there was a little sesame oil and chopped green onions in the egg custard, which looked very delicious.
