Chapter 81 The master of the capital?
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, every household is busy paying New Year greetings and wishing each other a happy New Year.

Xie Xiaolang ate and drank two bowls of mush in the morning, and then he was kicked out to collect firewood.

Of course, the main reason for Xie Changgui to drive him away was to eat something good at noon. He didn't want him to be an eyesore at home. came back.

Although Xie Xiaolang is young, he has lived in his uncle's house for such a long time, so he naturally understands the rules of living here.

He didn't dare to stay too long, he took his own stuff, and was wearing Xie Rongen's old cotton coat, ready to go out.

Xie Changgui stopped him, mainly because he saw the familiar clothes on his body.

"Brother Ron En gave it to him. He said he was wearing too small clothes. Seeing that my clothes are thin, he asked me to wear windproof clothes."

Xie Xiaolang looked at his uncle anxiously, worried that he would not be able to keep this old clothes.

Originally, Xie Changgui really wanted to take off this dress, but he thought of Xie Rongen again, adhering to the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and he still didn't want another old cotton coat.

It was originally Xie Rongen's short cotton padded jacket, but now it is worn on Xie Xiaolang's body, it is so loose that it has passed his calf.

Although it is not in shape, Xie Xiaolang is very happy because it is warm!

Xie Xiaolang doesn't pay much attention to whether it looks good or not, as long as it is not cold after wearing it.

After Xie Xiaolang picked up some firewood, he felt a little hungry, curled up behind a big tree, and hoped that noon would not be over, he really wanted to see Sister Guaibao.

After waiting and waiting, Xie Xiaolang fell asleep.

Falling asleep and falling asleep, as if I heard someone talking.

Xie Xiaolang opened his eyes and tilted his head slightly.

"I've said it all. I've tried everything I can think of, but it doesn't work. Now that I've reached this point, I can't do anything else. Go back and ask your master to write a letter to the young master. Don't meet him in the capital." Only then did I feel that I was taking money and doing nothing.”

"Is it necessary? It wasn't a big deal at first. Besides, even if Xie Xiuwen took part in the provincial examination, we'll just have to do it again. Why bother the young master? The young master is studying in the Imperial College now. How can it be Xie Xiuwen?" Xiuwen can compare?"

This voice sounded more like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy speaking.

The woman snorted: "It's up to you, anyway, I've made it clear, I don't care if you listen or not. But when the time comes, the son will blame you, don't blame me."

The two broke up unhappy, Xie Xiaolang rubbed his eyes, then poked his head out, only in time to see the profile of the man and the back of the woman.

Xie Xiaolang murmured, "Outsider?"

Obviously, he had never seen that boy, but he was sure he had heard the name Xie Xiuwen, so, were they trying to play tricks?
Xie Xiaolang stood up anxiously, then walked down with short legs, eager to confirm who the woman was.

It's a pity, Xie Xiaolang originally had short legs, and when he was about to chase, he had already gone a long way. When he hurried down the mountain, he only saw that woman enter Xie's house, Xie Xiuwen's house.

So, the person who wanted to harm him was actually his own family?
Xie Xiaolang is young and doesn't understand very well, but this does not prevent him from writing it down.

Xie Rongzhao and Xie Rongen went up the mountain together, halfway Xie Rongen carried her on his back for a long way, when they arrived at the place, Xie Xiaolang was digging fungi with great effort.

Although Xie Xiaolang is small, but out of survival instinct, he also knows that he can't be hungry all the time, so he often gets some food outside, such as wild fruits, or he will bake and eat wild eggs by himself. Sometimes it's even too late to cook, so I eat it raw.

"Little wolf, I'll do it later."

Xie Xiaolang put down his scythe, his shiny eyes suddenly dimmed again, because he noticed his dirty little hands.

Xie Rongzhao had been prepared for a long time, and took out a water bag from the back basket, which was filled with warm water.

Xie Rongen went over to help him wash it, and Xie Rongzhao handed over a clean blue cotton handkerchief.

"Quickly wipe it off, the medicine can be applied after it is dry."

Xie Xiaolang was stunned, what medicine should he take?

Xie Rongzhao took out a small bottle from his purse, which contained medicine for frostbite, Xie Rongen frowned, and then took the bottle: "I'll do it."

Xie Xiaolang stretched out his hands full of frostbite, Xie Rongen patiently helped him wipe it off bit by bit.

Xie Rongzhao looked at his hands, his eyes couldn't help feeling a little panting.

I am the same age as myself!

At such a young age, he has been rubbed like this. Seeing him is like seeing himself in a previous life.

Xie Rongzhao sucked his nose to keep the tears from falling.

"Little wolf, call me sister."

Xie Xiaolang looked at her eagerly: "Sister Baobao."

Xie Rongzhao's face darkened, and sister is sister. What's the name of this sweet sister?
"Be good, call me sister, and remove the word "good baby."

Xie Xiaolang hesitated for a moment, obviously reluctant, but remembering that she came to see him yesterday, he still called out obediently: "Sister."

Xie Rongen also applied the medicine on him, and then tidied up the ground, spread some dry leaves on the flat ground, then took out a broken mat from the back basket and spread it on, and put an old mat on it. list.

It was still cold in winter, after the three children sat down, Xie Rongzhao waited eagerly for the fourth brother to bring out delicious food.

When Xie Rongen saw these two pairs of expectant eyes, he couldn't help being amused.

He raised his hand and touched the top of Xie Rongzhao's head: "Didn't you eat at home? Why do you still look greedy?"

"That's different! With the elders around, you have to pay attention to what you eat. It's just the three of us here, so it's much more comfortable."

Xie Rongen also thinks this is the reason.

Especially with his second uncle around, he didn't dare to open his mouth when he was eating, for fear of being scolded by him again.

Xie Rongen took out a greased paper bag, which contained two large chicken legs and several chicken wings.

"Wait a while, don't worry, let's light the fire first, so that we can eat warm food even if we are not cold."

Xie Xiaolang is only concerned with swallowing his saliva right now, whether it's hot or not, he thinks he can eat anything raw if he can fill his stomach!
Xie Rongen lit the fire well, in order not to burn the woods, they dug a hole in the ground on purpose, just happened to have the firewood that Xie Xiaolang picked up earlier, it was very useful.

The three little ones are eating delicious food here. No one in Xiejiazhuang would have thought that the three little ones would think of coming here to eat on the first day of the new year.

Xie Xiaolang's stomach was seven or eight percent full, and this was no longer the act of gobbling.

"Sister, I just saw a woman and a stranger talking there, and mentioned your father."
