Chapter 41 The Strange Man

On the morning of the third day of junior high school, the two of them were eating breakfast when they suddenly heard a whining horn coming from the seaside, and after a while, another burst.

"I have to go." Hearing the sound of the horn, Xiao Chengyu was startled, put down the bowl and chopsticks, quickly got up and put on his coat, ready to go out.

"Let's go after dinner! Don't be in a hurry." Lin Xueman also hurriedly stood up and helped him put on his coat. The sound of the horn today was particularly harsh and annoying.

"No, let's eat it when we come back!" He watched her frantically tie his clothes, and smiled lightly, "You make some mackerel dumplings at home, and I'll bring Huzi back for dinner at noon." Only now did he understand I realized that it is really nice to have a daughter-in-law in the family. This kind of warmth cannot be experienced by the parents.

"Okay, I'll go out and find some shepherd's purse in a while, and wrap some more for you to eat." Lin Xueman also smiled at him.

The two have been getting along peacefully for the past few days, and this man is not as irritable as he was at the beginning, and he still seems to have some warmth. It really is a new year and a new atmosphere.

The sun rose softly over the treetops, and it was a rare fine weather.

Lin Xueman walked out of the house with a basket in her arms, and wanted to go around the foot of the mountain behind the house to see if she could find some shepherd's purse. It was the first time Xiao Chengyu brought people back for dinner, and it was the first month of the year, so he wanted to cook more dishes and entertain them well.

There was no one on the street, it was very deserted, it was only the third day of junior high school, and everyone was hiding at home for the first month of the lunar year!

In the past few days, Xiao Chengyu has been out to fetch water. She has never been out of the house except to go to the old house. Now that she came to the foot of the mountain, she felt a little strange.

Holding a thin stick, she carefully pulled the withered grass at the foot of the mountain to see if she could find some shepherd's purse. It seemed that Xiao Chengyu liked the taste very much.

Thinking of Xiao Chengyu, her heart warmed up. In the past few days, he has been staying at home with her, carrying water and chopping firewood, and not going anywhere.

Now it seems that this man is not bad. Although she and him are not married yet, the relationship between the two is quite harmonious. Since the two had a deep talk on New Year's Eve, they have never mentioned those topics again , I have to admit that she has also started to have a good impression of him. He said that he will give himself confidence. For her, what could be more touching than this?

He wants her to say what she wants to say and do what she wants to do. Does he want to see a real and unrepressed self?

Thinking about it, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. It turned out that she only liked someone, so she had so many thoughts. Thinking of the way he looked at her these days, she couldn't help but feel a little hot. She still can't see it now. Out of his mind, but these days, he has been very kind to himself. It turns out that this man also has a tender side...

While she was thinking, Lin Xueman suddenly heard a low moan from the grass, like a sound of unbearable pain, and it was a man's voice, she couldn't help being startled.

Following the sound, I saw a man sitting in the grass in front of him. He looked young, but he seemed to be injured, with a grinning face.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the man raised his head vigilantly, saw a young woman standing in front of him, relaxed a little, and asked in a rough voice: "Little lady, I got hurt a little, Can you get me some cloth strips to wrap it up?"

"Where are you hurt?" Lin Xue asked calmly. The man in front of him had thick eyebrows, dark complexion, and swollen eyelids. He was no different from those fishermen in Longtan Village who went to sea all the year round, except that his eyes were sharper. Some, not at all the simplicity and kindness of fishermen.

"The legs and arms were also injured." As he spoke, he grinned again, blood seeped from his knees, and his trousers were a shocking red.

"please wait a moment."

Lin Xueman hurried back home, looking for some gauze to bandage his wound, rummaged through the box, sweating, only those fine cotton cloths used for sanitary napkins were suitable for bandaging wounds, so she tore a large piece, passed the stove, and Thinking that the ashes in the stove seemed to be able to stop the bleeding, he hurriedly wrapped some up and asked him to apply it on the wound.

When she returned to the grass, the man had disappeared.

Just as he was wondering, a head stuck out from a nearby ditch: "I'm here."

This man is really vigilant enough.

Lin Xueman saw that he was looking behind her vigilantly, so she carefully threw the things in his hand over to him. Seeing that he picked up the plant ash and looked at it suspiciously, she said: "Those are plant ash, which can stop bleeding. You apply it on the wound." Just go up."

"I believe you." He carefully looked at the ashes, then at her, and asked, "Your man is also a fisherman who goes to sea?"

"Well, yes!" Lin Xueman responded casually.

The man rolled up his trouser legs, applied the ashes on the bloody wound, and wrapped the cotton cloth tightly around it layer by layer. The technique was very skillful.

"You haven't told anyone about my being here, have you?" After bandaging, he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at her suspiciously again.

"No, what's there to say?" She asked back, is there something shameful about this man?

"It's fine if you don't have one. If you spread the word, you will be in trouble. Just let your man take care of your fish these two days. It's spring, and the seaside is windy!" He glanced at her uncertainly, then limped again He crawled up the ditch, found a stick from the ground, and walked slowly towards the mountain.

It's spring, and the sea is windy?

What do you mean?

Will the sea breeze blow away the fish?

This man is really inexplicable!

Lin Xueman watched his back gradually disappear into the bushes in front, and continued to look for shepherd's purse along the grass. She searched around, but did not find a single shepherd's purse. Forget it, don't look for it, let's go home and prepare for cooking !

At noon, Xiao Chengyu led Huzi into the yard, the two were talking and laughing, and it seemed that they had a very harmonious relationship.

"Happy New Year, sister-in-law, hey, please trouble sister-in-law!" Huzi smiled naively when he saw Lin Xueman.

"Happy Chinese New Year to you too, don't bother, just sit in the room, and the meal will be ready." Lin Xueman smiled at the two of them, busy scooping up the dumplings in the pot.

"Huzi, don't be restrained, just like your own home!" Xiao Chengyu invited Huzi to the kang in the east room, set the table, and put a few dishes on it, then walked to the stove, and was busy on the pot His daughter-in-law said softly, "Huzi and I are going to Longji Island in the afternoon, do you want to go?"

"Of course I want to go. I haven't taken a boat to the sea yet!" Lin Xueman replied, suddenly realizing that it was inconvenient for her, and asked again, "How long?"

"About an hour or so! We are going to be on duty, so we will walk back and forth and scatter some fish by the way. I will come back at night. It is inconvenient to carry those fish. You go and bring them back by the way." He looked a little puzzled Looking at this daughter-in-law, can't she see that this is a husband-in-law who wants to take her out for a walk?

"Okay! I'll go!" Upon hearing that it was fishing, Lin Xueman responded straightforwardly, "Eat slowly, I'll go out and send a bowl of dumplings to my mother." Lin Xueman filled a bowl of dumplings and served them He went into the old house.

"Sister-in-law three, my third elder brother has brought someone over for dinner!" Xiao Yun sat on the kang, quickly embroidering the embroidery in her hand, and when she saw Lin Xueman coming in, she raised her head and smiled.

"Well, it's a tiger." Seeing that she was the only one sitting on the kang, Lin Xueman hurriedly asked, "Where are mother and second sister?"

"I went to town, and I probably won't be back at noon. I'm too lazy to cook by myself. I was just going to eat with you when you came over. Lazy people are lazy." Xiao Yun put down his embroidery work, giggled, Stretch your waist, "After a few days it will be warmer, let's go to the sea, pick some fish and shrimp, and you can sell it for money, which is faster than making embroidery. I heard that there are a lot of fish and shrimp in Longji Island recently, let's go together go!

"Big sister, why don't you go to my place to eat! After dinner, we will go to Longji Island with your third brother's boat, and he happens to be going to Longji Island with Huzi for duty!"

"Really, that's great, I've wanted to go out for a long time." Xiao Yun got off the kang and put on his shoes with a look of excitement.
