Xiaotian often traveled south by a pair of legs. Although he had worn several pairs of shoes, he also developed a good pair of feet, so he was seriously underestimated for carrying a timid young woman and a four-year-old child.

Although he was really impatient after walking, so he carried Le Yao on his back, but Xue Shuiwu was still unable to speed up when he was walking with him. Ye Xiaotian wanted to help her, but Xue Shuiwu refused to accept it on the grounds that a man and a woman would not be able to marry her.

Ye Xiaotian had no choice but to pick up a branch as a crutch for her. This only reduced her pain in rushing to the mountain road, but the speed was still not much faster. As the three of them walked around the official road west of Jingzhou, it was almost dusk.

Ye Xiaotian said: "Let's find a place to rest, take a night first, and then go tomorrow."

Although Xue Shuiwu's body was as weak as a grass, her personality was as tenacious as a grass. Her feet were covered with blood bubbles, but she didn't dare to say that, for fear that she would drag her way down because she had been gritting her teeth and struggling. She was already in great pain. After hearing what Ye Xiaotian said, she breathed a sigh of relief.

This place is still in Jingzhou, and Ye Xiaotian dared not stay with the villagers. In this era, the population flow was very small. As long as there was a family in a village with guests, the entire village would know that if the Yang family sent someone here to visit, his trace would be leaked.

Therefore, Ye Xiaotian did not enter the village. He looked around the dim sunset and saw a dilapidated land temple beside the paddy fields outside the entrance of the village. From the dilapidated appearance, he didn't look like incense, and there was no one with the village entrance. He said, "Let's go there and have a rest."

The Land Temple is not big, and no one knows whether the mountain gate has been demolished as firewood. It is an empty door. The land God's mud tire is watered by the ruined temple top, and it seems that it has melted and cannot see its shape.

This temple probably had temple blessings in the past, but now it is naturally nowhere to go. Ye Xiaotian went inside and found a couch still intact and the stove was there, but the big pot on it was broken, leaving only half of it. Fortunately, it was not taken away by the villagers.

Ye Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, let's take a break tonight. You two sleep on the earthen bed, I'll spend the night together on this altar." He pressed the altar hard. The altar was made of earth and stone structure, built in front of the statue, very strong enough to bear the weight of a person.

Leyao was carried by Ye Xiaotian along the way and became familiar with him. Leyao had never had many outsiders, so he was very intimate with Ye Xiaotian, calling out his brother sweetly. As soon as she got off Ye Xiaotian's back, she said coquettishly: "Brother, I'm hungry."

Not only was she hungry, Ye Xiaotian was now hungry and his chest was pressed against his back, and his heart was burning with hunger. Xue Shuiwu didn't say she was hungry, but her stomach gusted a few times at the right time, which made the shy little woman blush again.

Ye Xiaotian said: "You two are staying in the temple. Never go out, lest you be seen, I will go to the village to get some food."

"Um!"

Two women, one big and one small, nodded together, with their expressions and movements exactly the same.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The sun sank little by little at the end of the mountain under the eager expectation of Xue Shuiwu and his daughter, and the last ray of sunshine disappeared. The moon quietly climbed up in their anxious waiting. Le Yao snuggled in his mother's arms hungryly, and his originally hopeful eyes gradually dimmed.

It was completely dark, and Le Yao raised his little face weakly and said to Xue Shuiwu worriedly: "Does the eldest brother want us anymore? Why haven't he come back yet?"

Xue Shuiwu opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She just hugged her daughter gently and put her face on her face. Looking at the dark night outside the temple gate, in addition to helplessness and sadness, there was also a touch of melancholy in her eyes.

"I'm back, where are you?"

A figure sneaked into the Land Temple and greeted him quietly.

"It's the big brother!"

Le Yao jumped up, his eyes shining, as if he had seen a puppy with meat buns, happily pounced towards the black shadow. Xue Shuiwu also stood up excitedly and rushed out two steps in love. Then she suddenly stood up, but her anxious heart suddenly felt relieved.

You can pick up the firewood and wood that attracts fire. The stove is ready-made. As for the pot, you have to use half of the broken pot and tilt it over. Fortunately, the pot is big enough to still be stewed. Next to it is a paddy field. There is a water diversion channel beside the paddy field. The clear water is gurgling, so you can use it directly. So a fat goose faded her hair and put it into the pot.

In order to make the meat cook as soon as possible, Ye Xiaotian opened the bag of clothes, soaked it and spread it on the broken pot as a lid. The aroma of the meat finally floated out, and the three of them squatted beside the stove. Although only Le Yao swallowed without any concealment, Ye Xiaotian and Xue Shuiwu's eyes never left the pot.

Hearing Le Yao's stomach rumbling from time to time, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but say, "Yaoyao, if you are too hungry, just eat a sweet potato to cushion your stomach first."

On the way back, Ye Xiaotian dug a few pieces of sweet potatoes, washed them and they were crispy and sweet, but not much of them had eaten.

"oh!"

Le Yao agreed, swallowed hard, and looked at the pot with a deep eye: "Brother, when will this meat be cooked? I haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Hearing this, Ye Xiaotian's heart trembled slightly like a string swept by the wind. Xue Shuiwu slid the hair on her daughter's temples behind her ears with pity, and said softly: "The fragrance is coming out, and the meat is almost ripe."

"oh!"

Le Yao had already found a piece of sweet potato when he reached into his arms. He heard this and put it back. Seeing her cute appearance, Ye Xiaotian and Xue Shuiwu couldn't help but smile at each other. Just looking at each other, Ye Xiaotian's eyes couldn't help but become obsessed again.

When he met Ye Xiaotian's unconcealed burning gaze, Xue Shuiwu hurriedly lowered her head. The flames reflected her face, which were originally a little pale, but at this time there was a red flames reflected, but it showed a bit charming. Gradually, the face became more and more red under Ye Xiaotian's gaze, and it was pretty, like the little fox fairy in the legend.

The night was extremely quiet, and it was pitch black everywhere, only a leaping fire in front of them. From time to time, dry firewood made a "click" sound under the stove, making the tranquility inside more and more.

Ye Xiaotian's burning eyes were extremely aggressive, and the unconcealed appreciation made Xue Shuiwu slightly angry. She suddenly stood up, pretended to tidy up the bed, and walked towards the earthen kang in the next room.

Ye Xiaotian tried hard to pull his eyes back from her slim waist, and saw Le Yao looking at him curiously, his vague eyes were extremely pure.

Although Ye Xiaotian knew that she was too young, it was unlikely that she could understand the naked face in her eyes when she stared at her mother, but her face was still hot. She could only be slack when she was two people, and when there were too many people, she could only be slack. There is a difference between being slack and being shameless.

"Well! I'm just thinking about a poem, Water Dance, can you write a poem?" Ye Xiaotian could only interrupt embarrassedly.

Le Yao hugged his little skirt, tilted his head and thought about it carefully, and shook his head vigorously: "No, my mother said she would wait until I grew up before teaching me to write poetry, but I know a lot of stories, many, many, they were told to me by my mother. Should I listen to it, brother?"

Ye Xiaotian touched her head and smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to your story again when I look back. Do you want to listen to the poems I made?"

Xue Shuiwu bent over and seemed to be spreading her clothes, as if she didn't listen to what they were saying, but her movements obviously slowed down and her face turned slightly.

Ye Xiaotian coughed and said in a loud voice: "Geese, goose, cut the neck with a knife, pluck the hair and add water, ignite the fire and cover the pot!"

Xue Shuiwu let out a "pop" sound, and couldn't help laughing out loud, and then quickly held it back. However, with the reflection of the fire, she could still vaguely see her shoulders shaking, and her face must have been red.

Le Yao laughed "giggling" and clapped his hands, "I heard from my mother that this poem is different from what my brother said, but it still sounds nice to me, hehe."

Xue Shuiwu walked back with a smile and said to Le Yao: "Brother is teasing you. This is at best just a limerick. Okay, don't show your teeth when laughing. Why do you tell you? Girls should not smile without showing their teeth."

Le Yao quickly closed his mouth, Ye Xiaotian couldn't stand it and said, "She is still young, don't be so particular."

Xue Shuiwu said seriously: "Rules should be established from a young age, otherwise there will be no rules when they are older."

Ye Xiaotian disagreed and muttered to himself: "After all, there are many things that even the concubines pay attention to."

A pot of goose meat was finally stewed. To be precise, it was only 80% ripe. Only three people were hungry, but they couldn't wait for the meat to be cooked. The three people cleaned their hands in the dark and changed their hands repeatedly, their mouths constantly.

Although Xue Shuiwu eats with her hands, she still pays attention to her appearance. Ye Xiaotian and the four-year-old Le Yao eat voraciously without any appearance. This goose is really not small. Although the three of them are hungry, they can't eat half of them.

After dinner, Ye Xiaotian burped comfortably and said, "The remaining meat will be hotter tomorrow morning and take it to the road."

Xue Shuiwu saw that her daughter had her belly opened and her round belly was so full that she said worriedly: "If you eat too much meat, you should drink some tea to resolve the greasyness. This girl didn't catch enough meat, so don't eat it badly."

Ye Xiaotian used a branch as a toothpick to pick his teeth and said, "Don't worry, it's not like fish and meat every day, it doesn't matter if you eat occasionally."

"Um!"
