my wishful wolf

Chapter 15

It turned out that Yueniang's younger brother, Yao Liang, was still young, and the Wang family thought he would be wasted on food and clothing, so they sent him out as an apprentice early.Yao Liangben was also a pampered and pampered young man. He was also sensible and smart when he encountered a sudden catastrophe, so he had to endure everything.The people of the Wang family are vicious, and they don't want to go to the trouble of finding a good job for Yao Liang. Those kind of jobs that seem light and decent, have to come to the door to talk about it in person, so they don't want to bother, just entrust someone casually, Yao Liang was sent to the wharf to be a ship's man, and if there were ships that needed manpower, he would be hired to go with the ship.

When Yao Liang was sent out earlier, he was only eleven or twelve years old, and he was still just a child. Who would want to use him?He suffered a lot and suffered a lot. Fortunately, the fellows around him took pity on him and often gave him some food and clothing. Yao Liang survived. Fortunately, Yao Liang was smart. Later, the boatmen saw that although he was young, he was very good at helping. Feet, often the meticulous work that others can't think of, he can do one by one, one person is worth several pairs of eyes.And because he was young and the asking price was low, everyone gradually liked to use him, and Yao Liangcai slowly gained a foothold on the pier.

Today, Yao Liang is more than 13 years old, and in a few months, he will be [-]. The weather is getting colder, Yao Liang is thinking about Yao Yueniang, because he knows that the two old men in the Wang family are mean and don't like to see him If you go rashly, you will cause trouble for your sister, so I was afraid that I would not come here. Later, I really missed it, so I took some money, bought some snacks and so on, and came to Wang's house.

Yue'e hurried out of the backyard to meet her younger brother whom she had never met before. As soon as she reached the front hall, she heard Mrs. Wang's voice, piercing like a broken gong, and said: "Go and support yourself well, what are you doing when you come back?" ? If you want money, but you don’t have it.”

A young voice replied, "That's not the case. I don't want anything. I just want to see my sister."

"She's not dead yet, what are you seeing?" Speaking of Yue'e, Mrs. Wang got angry and immediately scolded.

Yao Liang experienced a year at the pier, and his temperament became much calmer. He said immediately: "I just saw her, and I will leave immediately. I don't even need to eat lunch."

Mrs. Wang snorted coldly, and said: "It's good that you understand, my family has enough to raise an idler..." I wanted to say more, but I heard a voice say: "Why don't you leave after lunch? Who dares to chase you away? "

Upon hearing this sound, Mrs. Wang trembled, Yao Liang hurriedly turned her head and shouted, "Sister!"

Yue'e heard that Mrs. Wang was embarrassing Yao Liang, and after hearing a few words at the door, she felt really sad. She had no feelings for this younger brother who came out of nowhere. At first, she only thought about how to discuss with him and help her leave the Wang family. Things.But he didn't know whether this younger brother of the Yao family was smart or stupid, if he was really stupid, now that the mud bodhisattva was crossing the river, he couldn't protect himself, so naturally he couldn't help him.

She looked in from the side of the door, and saw that although the young man was young, he had long hands and long legs. Looking from behind, he showed a strong character, but it was just the time when his body was growing, so he probably couldn't eat much. Yes, so very thin.Yue'e looked at Mrs. Wang making things difficult for him, but he always answered calmly. In order to see her, he just compromised. He was full of emotions in his heart, and finally couldn't help but speak.

Seeing Yue'e's appearance, Mrs. Wang couldn't hold back her face, and scolded: "There is one idler who can't do enough, and one who is tired, our Wang family owed you in previous lives?"

Yue'e ignored her, but looked at Yao Liang who turned around. Although Yao Liang was young and his face hadn't opened yet, it was darkened by the wind and rain, but still revealed With a delicate silhouette, a straight nose and a square mouth, two eyes are black and white, and there is a righteousness in the heart of the eyebrows. When looking at Yue'e, there is a look of joy on his face.Turned out to be a very good kid.

Yue'e smiled slightly, turned to look at Mrs. Wang, and said: "Who is lazy, mother-in-law, I have always been respectful, and you don't have to slander me like this. If you are dissatisfied, go to the patriarch and sue me. My brother came from afar. What's the point of keeping him for a meal, even if a beggar comes, he will be dismissed, so what's the point of driving him away in such a hurry?"

Mrs. Wang jumped on the spot and said: "You rely on him to come, the more embarrassing you are, and the more stubborn you are with my mother?"

Yue'e sneered and said: "If my mother-in-law has a lot of dissatisfaction with me, what's the point of just enduring it, why don't you find a way to drive me out, wouldn't it be clean, so as not to stay here, and bring disaster to your Wang family..."

After she finished speaking, she didn't even look at the dumbfounded Mrs. Wang, reached out to hold Yao Liang's hand, glanced at him, smiled and said in a low voice, "Brother, come with me..."

Yao Liang was also shocked. I don't know how many months we have not seen each other, but my sister has become so powerful. A few words overwhelmed the old woman's words. She just felt the soft and warm hand holding her, and felt infinitely grateful for a moment.

Yue'e walked out slowly holding Yao Liang's hand. The young hand in her palm was extremely rough, holding it as if holding a piece of cracked bark. She was startled secretly, but she just endured it. Seeing Mrs. Wang scolding inside: "Shameless whore, wait and see!"

Yue'e took Yao Liang back to the room and told Yao Liang to sit down. She didn't know what to say for a while, so she asked, "Why did you come here at this time? Have you eaten yet?" Yao Liang's pier was far away from here. It's not easy to come here. I just rushed over the mountains and ridges on the road. I didn't care about food. I brought a few hard pastries, and I ate them all. Seeing Yue'e asked, she said: "Sister , I’m not hungry, I’ve eaten.” Seeing the shyness and unspeakable flash on his face, Yue’e understood it a long time ago, nodded, took his hands and said, “Wait for me a moment.” Saying that, she After going out, she went to the kitchen in the backyard, and saw that old Zhang was watching the fire for her, so he said, "Uncle Zhang, thank you so much."

The old Zhangtou said: "Young Madam, don't worry, I'll help you look after... why are you back?" Yue'e put on the apron and said: "My brother came all the way here, he hasn't eaten anything, cook for him A little." Old Zhang nodded and said, "That's right, I think the young master has lost a lot of weight."

Yue'e promised, then lit up the fire, thought for a while, washed four or five eggs, put them in the pot, boiled the water for a while, took them out and put them in cold water, and then cooked them in another stove. Boil the water, add some salt, get some white flour out, add water and oil to make it mixed, and after pulling it, throw them all into the pot one by one, let the boiled water cook the noodles, and choose some noodles during the period. The green vegetables are set aside, beat an egg in the bowl, smash it with chopsticks, pour it into the pot, and after it boils, throw the green vegetables in again, and scoop them out with a spoon when they are cooked for a while.

The old Zhangtou was watching, very surprised, and kept asking: "Young Madam, what are you doing?"

Yue'e smiled and said nothing, and after she finished, she scooped up another bowl for Zhangtou, and said, "This is what I wanted to do in my free time. It's simpler. Don't laugh, Uncle Zhang, and don't feel bad about it." eat."

Lao Zhangtou picked up the bowls and chopsticks, but he didn't eat it yet. He just felt a tangy fragrance, a faint oily fragrance, plus a smell of eggs, and the smell of green vegetables, combined with the fragrance of noodles. Although it is not luxurious, it is very moving. Xin Xin, even if he hasn't eaten yet, he has already swallowed his saliva, hastily took a sip, and immediately praised: "Young Madam, this is really delicious, what is it called?"

Yue'e pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I haven't decided on a name yet, Uncle Zhang, please help me look at the medicine first, I'll take these for my brother."

The old Zhangtou said: "Young Madam, you can take care of yourself, don't worry about this place." He ate all the pasta and went to watch the stove again, regardless of whether the pasta was hot.Yue'e used a tray to hold things, took eggs, and then carried them out of the kitchen.

Back in the house, Yao Liang waited in a hurry, stood up and called, "Sister, what are you doing?" Seeing that Yue'e was holding something in her hand, she hurriedly wanted to help pick it up, Yue'e said, "Don't move, go and sit down quickly. Down."

Yao Liang had no choice but to sit back obediently. Yue'e put down the tray, took out the meals one by one, took the chopsticks, handed them to Yao Liang, and said, "It's not easy to do anything in a hurry, so let's eat first." These... don't starve."

Holding the chopsticks in his hand, Yao Liang lowered his head to look at the contents of the bowl. The cooked noodles were white jade in color, green vegetables, white eggs, and a fragrance wafted from his nostrils, and he couldn't help being stunned. .

When he came to Wang's house before, his sister came out to see him secretly, and never left him to eat. He is also sensible and knows that he can't cause trouble for his sister, so he also actively hides. I left, but I didn't expect...

All of a sudden, the heat of the pasta steamed up, and the tears in Yao Liang's eyes fell little by little.

Yue'e was startled, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable?"

Yao Liang held the chopsticks tightly, wiped away his tears with one hand, and said, "No... sister... I just..." Yue'e looked sideways at the young man, the light in the room was a little dim, but luckily she was leaning against the window On the other side, his thin face still carried the childishness of youth, but his face, which should have been delicate and smooth, had become dark and a little rough due to years of wandering in the rivers and lakes and weathering wind and frost. Reaching out his hand, he gently touched Yao Liang's face, wiped away the tear that was not wiped off, and said, "It's fine, why are you crying, silly boy, give it a try, it's the first time I've done it... …I don’t know if you like to eat or not.”

Yao Liang burst into tears, and said with a crying voice: "I love to eat, I love to eat, I love to eat what my sister cooks!" Then he lowered his head as if embarrassed, picked up the bowl and started to eat .

After Yao Liang ate all the rice, Yue'e said: "These eggs are all boiled, and I leave them for you to eat on the way." Then, she found a bag and wrapped it for Yao Liang.Yao Liang stretched out his hand to hold it, and said: "Sister, you can't help it, that old lady Wang is going to scold and beat you again." Yue'e smiled and said: "Don't worry, let her scold if she likes, it doesn't hurt or itch, she Don’t dare to hit me.” Yao Liang was very puzzled, looking at Yue’e, Yue’e felt strange when she held his hand before, but now she looked down carefully, and saw that Yao Liang’s hand could no longer use “rough” To describe it in two words, the boy's hands and fingers are somewhat deformed, probably due to frequent labor, the joints are very large, and in some places, the wounds have not healed because they are worn out or cut by some sharp tools. Some of them had been scarred, with thick cocoons, and some places were still festering. Through the wound, one could even see the blood-red flesh faintly oozing out of it, which made Yue'e's heart skip a beat.
