Chapter 11 Picking Up a Puppy (3)

In the twilight of the next morning, Xiao Ruo was awakened by the sound of something falling to the ground in the next room.

The three siblings are still sleeping in the original house of Xiao's parents, next door is the place where Xiaoxiao Xiaozhao used to sleep, and the boy was placed there yesterday.

Xiaoruo gently pulled out her tightly hugged arms, one on the left and the other on the right, from the arms of her younger siblings, and then pulled a thin quilt over the two cubs, tucking them tightly to prevent the cold wind from pouring in and freezing them, and then let them go. Step lightly out of the house.

Walking around the bookshelf, she saw the boy curled up in the corner, staring at herself warily, his lips tightly pressed, his hands curled up in front of his chest and clenched into fists, with a posture of attacking at any time, only his slightly trembling arms betrayed him. He was just bluffing.

Xiaoruo softly comforted her: "My name is Xiaoruo. I saw you injured and unconscious on the mountain yesterday, so I brought you back. This is my home. What's your name?"

When the girl's voice was deliberately softened, it was more like a ripple under the bridge, swaying softly, infiltrating the boy's highly tense nerves.

"Ah... um..." After not speaking for a long time, the young man's voice was so hoarse that he couldn't even give a complete answer, and could only spit out meaningless syllables intermittently.

Seeing this, Xiao Ruo quickly poured a glass of water and handed it over, letting the boy moisten his throat.

Seeing that he still frowned after drinking the water, and opened his mouth several times with a hoarse voice, Xiaoruo asked him to stop talking, and only nodded and shook his head to answer her question.

"Are you from around here?"

Shaking his head.

"Do you remember where your home is?"

The boy frowned and thought for a long time, then shook his head.

"Then do you remember your name?"

Still shaking his head.

"How did you get your injuries? Did you meet a bad guy?"

First nodding, then shaking his head.

"You mean you can't remember?"

nod.

After some simple questioning, Xiaoruo roughly determined that the boy's memory was probably confused or even lost due to a head injury.Thinking that it might be because of the hole she dug that caused the boy to fall on his head, Xiaoruo felt guilty for a while.

"Then, if I send you to the government and let the officials find family members for you, would you be willing?"

Shaking his head frantically.Although the boy has lost his memory, he instinctively knows the danger.

Xiaoruo saw the young man's sudden agitation, with such a resisting gesture, he could only give another suggestion. "Why don't you stay at my house first, heal your injuries, and decide to stay after you recover your memory."

The boy's eyes lit up, and the vigilance and tension in his pupils were gone.

For some reason, although the girl in front of her was pretty and weak in appearance, she gave him a strong sense of security, making him want to trust her completely, to get closer and snuggle.

"Ah, ah!" Nodding his head heavily, the fist in his chest was also loosened, and it was placed on his left calf instead. The boy tremblingly whimpered and hummed a few times to express the pain.

Xiaoruo was standing, the boy was sitting curled up, she was already slightly taller than the boy, at this moment she was stared at by a pair of wet eyes, the boy opened his eyes round, and the doggy eye attack on the upper eye line hit Xiaoruo's in an instant Heart.

It's really like a wronged puppy, whining and chirping, waiting for the owner to touch its head and praise it for being a good dog.

Hands moved according to her heart, and when Xiaoruo came to her senses, she was already rubbing the boy's head, feeling the fluffy hair on the palm of her hand, she was a little embarrassed and a little happy.

This baby's hair feels like a dog's hair, soft and fluffy, and a little natural curl when you look closely, which makes fur lovers completely irresistible.

"The bone in your leg should be broken or cracked. I'll take you to see a doctor when it's daybreak, and I'll prepare some medicine for relaxing muscles and activating blood circulation." Xiaoruo didn't stop talking, making arrangements while rubbing hair. "If you don't want to go to the government, we have to make up a reasonable identity for you, so as not to arouse suspicion."

The boy didn't resist being touched on the head, and even narrowed his eyes with an expression of enjoyment, more like a big dog.

Xiaoruo wanted to laugh, and simply said, "I can't remember your original name, so I'll give you a name. Since you're staying in my house temporarily, you'll have a single name, the word Gou, which means for the time being. Just say it to the outside world. You are a cousin three generations away from my family, and you came to look for my parents, and you were only injured when you ran into bandits on the road."

The young man accepted Xiaoruo's arrangement completely, and nodded in complete trust to express his agreement.

Xiaoruo smiled slyly: "Since you are a relative, you can follow my family name, then call it Xiaogou, Xiaogou, puff, puppy, repair dog hahahahahaha..." Before finishing speaking, Xiaoruo was caught by her own evil The fun made me laugh out loud.

The young man didn't get annoyed by the teasing and teasing in Xiaoruo's words, he looked at Xiaoruo's bending over with a smile, and felt as if a beam of bright light illuminated himself, warm and brilliant.

Xiaoruo's loud laughter woke up Xiaoyou Xiaozhao in the next room. The two children followed the sound and went out of the room rubbing their bewildered eyes. They saw their elder sister bending over and covering her stomach with a smile. The little brother who was unconscious yesterday has also woken up. .

"Sister...what's the matter..." The voice of the little milk who just woke up was soft.

Xiaoruo saw that her siblings had woken up, so she stopped laughing, and helped the young boy from the cold ground to sit on the bed, and then put the two Douding, who were only wearing full clothes, on the bed, saving the morning sleep. Cold feet.

"Yiaoyiao Zhaozhao, this little brother will live with us in the future." Xiaoruo hugged the two soft puppies, her small body was soft and warm, and it felt great in the hand. "As for him, he is the grandson of the aunt of the second son of our seventh uncle's cousin's family. His name is Xiao... Poof, his name is Xiaoxun. You will call him Brother Xiaoxun from now on."

The name Xiaogou is just a joke she used to tease the young man, and the name she uses every day should be more serious. Although the country people have the habit of being called Ergou Tiedan, which is easy to support, Xiaoruo looked at the young man's heroic face, Still can't imagine someone calling him a puppy with such a face.In the end, Xun characters, which have little difference in strokes from Gou characters, were chosen.

The young man has no objection to Xiaoruo temporarily changing his name, Xiaogou Xiaoxun is no different to him.

He looked at Xiao Niao and Xiao Zhao who were clinging to Xiao Ruo's arms, and felt a trace of inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if he was a little envious and jealous.

Xiaoyou Xiaozhao, who was confused by the elder sister's series of relatives, didn't understand it. She said yesterday that her sister picked it up on the West Mountain. How could she become her brother today?But sister said so, there must be nothing wrong, maybe it was sister who recognized that they were their relatives.

In the minds of the two elder sisters, their elder sister can go to the five oceans to catch turtles or go to nine heavens to catch the moon, and what the elder sister said is the truth, so they both opened their mouths together and shouted crisply: "Brother Xiaoxun is good."

Xiao Xun also nodded in agreement, and he also had no objection to having two more siblings, and Xiao Ruo's younger siblings should naturally be his own.

The four of them huddled together on the bed and talked for a while.Most of the time it was Xiaoruo who was talking, arranging the details of Xiaoxun’s origins and sorting out the logic so that the villagers could more quickly accept the sudden appearance of a new face in the Xiao family. The other three listened and nodded, trying to absorb Xiaoruo’s story. The plot of the story is to make everyone believe that Xiao Xun is their Xiao family.

By the time the story was finished, it was daylight.After the four members of the new Xiao family had breakfast, Xiao Ruo went out to find out how to get to the pharmacy in the county town, and Xiao Niao Xiao Zhao did her best cleaning work.

Xiaoxun also wanted to help, but was forced by Xiaoruo to stay in bed for recuperation. After all, Xiaoxun made breakfast today.

For breakfast, Xiaoruo wanted to use flour batter to deal with it first. There were still two pancakes baked by Xiaoyou last night. Tear them up and throw them into the flour batter to cook until soft. When served, it was four bowls of sticky white and gray. of porridge.

Xiaoxun silently looked at the thing in front of him who didn't know whether it was called porridge or batter, and raised his hand to stop the three siblings who were about to eat.

He limped and plucked a few finger-thin carrots from the vegetable field, distributed the Xiaoruo to his younger siblings and his three boiled eggs, sliced ​​them, sautéed them with a little lard, and soaked glutinous rice Then steam and cook together, after the fragrance comes out, sprinkle with a handful of green onion, mix evenly, and you will have a pot of stewed rice with complete color, fragrance and taste.

Xiaoyou Xiaozhao has never eaten such a hot and delicious meal since her parents passed away.The three brothers and sisters are not good at cooking, and the food they cook can only be regarded as full. Occasionally, Aunt Zhang feels sorry for them to send food to Xiao's family for a tooth festival. It is also because of the journey that it is not so hot when it is delivered to Xiao's house. Naturally, the taste is not as good as freshly cooked. Hook people gluttonous.

Unexpectedly, the dog he picked up is so good, Xiaoruo and his siblings sighed while eating the hot and delicious stewed rice, this dog can really eat.

The amount of stewed rice was not much, just enough for Xiaoruo and the two Xiaodouding to have a bowl each, while Xiaoxun took four bowls of flour paste, without frowning, Xilihulu ate all of it, nothing wasted.
