Adopting a Daughter to Become a Concubine in Red

Chapter 39

Chen San's thatched cottage looked very close, but it took a lot of effort to walk.When Su Hongtang followed Chen San into the cottage, it was already dark.

"I'll just sleep next door, and you can call me if you need anything!"

Strangely lighting the oil lamp on the table, Chen San led Su Hong to the corner.

"Forgive the strong man..."

Su Hong wrapped around the candlelight and looked at the thatch in the corner for a while, and couldn't help frowning.Although she had a bumpy love life in this life, she has never suffered much. As long as she can remember, she has been favored by her master in the Valley of Love.Now, in this situation, it is really difficult.

Holding the oil lamp, Chen San saw Su Hongtang's distressed expression, and immediately recalled it, knowing that it was the haystack that frightened the little woman who was walking all the way with him.

Raising his hand to put the oil lamp into Su Hongzhang's hand, Chen Sanhan smiled and said: "Little lady, don't panic, I'm used to living alone for a day, and I forgot that this haystack is really uninhabitable. Just wait a while, I'll go Come as you go."

"This……"

Hearing Chen San's footsteps hurriedly leaving the house, Su Hong tightly wrapped Chang Xin's hand, but found that Chang Xin was looking at her.

"Xin'er woke up?"

"Mother?"

Changxin remembered that the woman in front of her said before she went to bed that she was her mother.

"Yeah. Now that you're awake, let's talk to mother about what Xin'er still remembers."

Su Hongtang reached out and stroked the top of Chang Xin's head, she remembered that Xin'er didn't remember her when she woke up.

"Xin'er...Xin'er only remembers that you are Xin'er's mother..."

Chang Xin looked down at her toes, then raised her eyes to stare at Su Hongtang's eyes.

The long-term scrutiny made Su Hongtang a little uneasy.In her memory, Xin'er never seemed to see her like this tonight.

"Xin'er, you..." After hesitating for a moment, Su Hongcang still asked her confusion, "What's wrong with you? Was it something that happened to you when you and your mother crossed the mountain that day?"

"Fanshan" Changxin opened his eyes, his pupils were full of confusion, "What is Fanshan?"

"Fanshan, Fanshan is..." Su Hongcang was about to tell the whole story of last night, but heard 'creak', 'creak' sound of the wooden door shaking.

"Strong man, are you back?"

Su Hongcang took a few steps towards the wooden door with the oil lamp in hand.Before she could reach the door, she heard Xin'er in her arms exclaiming in shock: "Ah..."

"..."

Letting the oil lamp fall from her hand and roll to the ground, Su Hongtang instinctively hugged Changxin, she didn't want to admit that she was frightened by Changxin's cry.

And Changxin buried her head in Su Hongtang's neck after being surrounded by Su Hongtang, sobbing softly.

"Mother! There are mice! There are mice!"

"Rat..."

Was it frightened by rats?Rubbing Chang Xin's back with one hand, Su Hong felt that her back was soaked.

"Why is Xin'er afraid of mice?"

Su Hongcang attached herself to pick up the oil lamp that fell on the ground, and asked Chang Xin in a low voice.

"This..." Chang Xin hugged Su Hong's neck tightly and did not dare to let go, "Xin'er doesn't know... just afraid... afraid..."

"Are you afraid of mice?"

Su Hongcang picked up the oil lamp.

"Um……"

Feeling a light source approaching him, Chang Xin's body trembled slightly.

"Hehehe... Don't be afraid, those mice have already escaped."

With a smile on her face, she went to the door with a long heart, Su Hongtang thought in a daze that Master seemed to be afraid of rats too.Although she has never seen the master's face turned pale by the rat, she really remembers that the master touched her head when she was young and said to her, "everyone has something to fear. What the teacher is afraid of is the mouse'.

Are there so many people in the world who are afraid of mice?

Su Hongcang looked at Chang Xin's face, slightly absent-minded.She seemed to really see Master last night.If it wasn't for Master, she would not be able to escape from the Valley of Love.But if it was really Shizun last night, why didn't Shizun want to meet her?

Is it...

Thinking over the message Fei'er gave her, Su Hong pursed her lips.Is it because the master has become an old man, so he doesn't want to meet her?

"Xin'er, do you still remember the old man last night?"

Although I don't know if Master looks like an old man now, but I can't go wrong by asking.Su Hong looked at Chang Xin expectantly.

"Old man? Xin'er has never seen any old man, Xin'er only remembers mother."

Changxin hid in Su Hongtang's arms, and cowardly glanced at Su Hongtang, his eyes full of grievances.She really doesn't remember anything.

"Really?" Seeing the grievance in Chang Xin's eyes, Su Hongcang sighed softly. She and Xin'er must have been secretly helped by someone to show up in Zhenxi, and everyone who came to chase them last night must have known Who helped her.

If it wasn't for returning to Love Valley at this time, it would be like throwing herself into a trap, she would definitely have to go back and ask for clarification.

"If you don't remember, forget it..."

Glancing at the door shaken by the wind, Su Hongtang slowly handed the oil lamp to Chang Xin's hand.No matter how much she wants to know at this time, who saved her and Changxin last night, it can't change the fact that she is no longer in the Valley of Love.

The most important thing she should do at this moment is to find a place to sleep for tonight, and take a good rest with Changxin, and then discuss the matter of finding a master tomorrow morning.

Although Chen San said he would come whenever he went, she shouldn't have been waiting for him to come back.

Taking a look at her and Chang Xin's clothes by the candlelight, Su Hong took care of her.

She and Changxin are still wearing the cotton padded clothes they wore when they walked from the Valley of Love. Although Chen San's thatched house is poorly furnished, it is fortunately sheltered from the wind and rain... It shouldn't matter if she and Chang Xin wrapped themselves in cotton padded clothes and slept in thatched grass overnight.

Since it is feasible to wrap cotton clothes and sleep on thatch, then...

Su Hongtang looked at Changxin, possessed her and put her on the ground.

"Xin'er, hold the lamp for mother here."

"Got it, mother."

Chang Xin held the oil lamp in his hand and nodded gently.

"Ah."

Seeing that Changxin was holding the oil lamp steadily, Su Hongzang took a few steps to the side of the thatch, leaned over and began to tidy up the thatch.

"Mother, what are you doing here?"

Seeing Su Hong walking around with the thatch wrapped around her, Chang Xin laughed out loud.

"Make the bed!"

Resisting the exhaustion from the bottom of her heart, Su Hong replied with a smile.

"Can thatch make a bed?"

Chang Xin inexplicably felt that his nose was a little sore.

"Why not?"

Su Hongcang lightly smiled and laid an extra layer near the wall.Chen San's thatched hut seemed a bit gloomy and cold, and his heart was young, so he must not be cold.

"But... but... shouldn't the bed be made of jade?" Chang Xin held back the tears that were about to burst from his eyes, and murmured, "There is no such thing as grass as a bed in this world..."

"What did Xin'er just say?" What Chang Xin blurted out startled Su Hongchan who was making the bed.

Meeting Su Hongtang's astonished eyes, Changxin repeated what she said before in a low voice: "Xin'er...Xin'er said, shouldn't the bed be made of jade?"

"What jade?" Su Hongcang didn't dare to give up any of the words, there was only one person sleeping on the jade bed in her memory, and that was her master.The master has a cold body, so he has received preferential treatment from the master since he was a child.

Seeing that Su Hongtang's face was tense, Changxin secretly felt that the air in the room had also become thinner.

"Nuan... Nuanyu..." Changxin suddenly couldn't hear his own voice clearly.

As soon as the word 'nuanyu' came out, Su Hongchan immediately put down what she was doing, and walked up to Changxin, squatting down to meet Changxin's line of sight, "Xin'er, where did you hear that?" Got warm jade?"

"Xin'er... Xin'er from...Mother, this is something that Xin'er has in her mind..." Chang Xin tried hard to recall the origin of Nuanyu, but found that his mind was blank.

"Think about it again, did a woman in white tell you?"

Su Hong is persuasive and persuasive.

"No...not... Xin'er has never seen a woman in white!"

Long-hearted and decisive.

"Then, is it an old lady in white..."

Su Hongchan hesitated for a moment.

"No...not... Xin'er has never seen any old lady in white..."

"That……"

Su Hongcang wanted to ask again, but heard the sound of "Zhi Ya" opening the door.

"Hey, the lady is making the bed!"

Feeling a gust of cold wind blowing in front of her, Su Hongcang could clearly see the black figure standing in front of the door.

"The strong man came back so soon? Come in, come in."

Staring at Chen San who stood up to the door with two quilts in his arms, Su Hongcang got up in a hurry and moved forward with a long heart.

"Little lady, stand inside. It's windy outside, so don't let your body feel cold." Chen San walked towards the house with the quilt in his arms, and closed the door he pushed open with his feet. Something happened?"

After greeting Chang Xin, Chen San quickly helped Su Hong make the bed.

"Don't strong men use quilts?"

Looking at the quilt under Chen San's knees, Su Hongcang instantly understood why Chen San went out.It turned out that I borrowed a quilt for myself and Xin'er.

"Ha... There are quilts. But if there is a cover, there must be a cushion, right?"

After making the bed, Chen San quickly walked to the side cabinet and opened the cabinet door.

There are two new-looking quilts in the cabinet.

"This quilt has been made for a few years but has never been used. It may be a bit cold. The little lady will make use of it today, and when it dawns tomorrow, take it out to dry in the sun. It will be better tomorrow night."

Seeing Chen San take out a new quilt from the cabinet, Su Hongzhang felt somewhat apologetic.She never thought that she would spend the night with someone like Chen San.She never thought that she would bother Chen San so much, not only to trouble him to borrow quilts from the neighbor's house, but also to use the stock in his closet.

But... that's the only way to go now.

Su Hongcang looked at Chen San's back, pouted, and wanted to say thank you, but heard a tender voice, "Thank you, strong man!"

"Hahahaha... the girl from the little lady's family is so cute!" Chen San heard Chang Xin thanking him, then turned his head and smiled at Su Hongtang, "However, every day I am called a strong man, my ears are so tender It's about to get cocooned."

"What does the strong man mean?" Su Hongcang didn't dare to address him rashly, so he had to carefully ask Chen San what he meant.

"It's too strange to call a strong man. If you don't dislike it, you can call me 'Brother Three' in the future." Chen San got up and clapped his hands, shaking off the weeds on his hands: "If you dislike Chen San as a blacksmith, then Follow the people in Zhuangzi and call me 'Chen Tiesan' for the rest of my life!"
