Husband and Father Youwei

Chapter 36

Zhao Changping and Tu Xinmei were sent away, they fastened the gate of the courtyard and returned to the house.At this time, the main room was still filled with the faint smell of alcohol, the leftovers on the table were messy, and Tu Lin and Ruan Tang began to clean up again.

Put all the cups, plates, and chopsticks into a large wooden basin, and then put them in the kitchen to wait for tomorrow to clean. Then Tu Lin went to help Ruan Tang clean the table and sweep the floor, tidy up the chairs and stools, and wait until everything was tidied up. Go take a shower and get ready to rest.

It was getting late at this time, and Tu An couldn't bear it anymore and already fell asleep on the bed in the east room. When Tu Lin came back from washing, Ruan Tang said to him: "The bed in the east room is bigger. You and Xiao An can sleep in the east room." Bar."

The east and west rooms of the main house of the Ruan family are all bedrooms, except that the east room is the room of Ruan Tang’s parents, while the west room is Ruan Tang’s own room, so the beds in the east room are larger than those in the west room, and two adults can sleep. , let alone Tu Lin and Tu An, but it would be impossible for Tu Lin, Ruan Tang, and Tu An to sleep together like the wooden bed in the old house of the Tu family.

As for allowing Tu Lin and Ruan Tang to sleep in the big bed in the east room, and Tu An to sleep in the small bed in the west room, it's not that Tu Lin has never thought about it, but it's obviously still impossible now, but he doesn't intend to sleep in the east room as Ruan Tang said. Then, he smiled and said to Ruan Tang: "This is your home, how can I sleep in your parents' room. You and Xiao An can sleep in the east room, and I can sleep in the west room. You have been tired all day, so you should rest earlier . ” Although no one can sleep now, it is good to be able to sleep in the house and the bed.

"Okay, then you should go to bed earlier." Seeing Tu Lin like this, Ruan Tang didn't say anything more, it was just sleeping at night, it was not a big deal, and then he went into the east room by himself.Seeing that Ruan Tang had returned to the east room, Tu Lin also turned around and went to the west room.

Ruan Tang’s room is actually about the same size as the east room, the walls are a little yellow, but they are flat, and there is not much furniture. There is only a wooden bed on the west wall, a wooden shelf on the north wall, and a wooden shelf under the south window. It is a low cabinet.At this time, the wooden shelf was empty, but a set of teacups and wooden boards were placed on the low cabinet.

The bedding has also been laid out on the bed, adding a bit of family atmosphere to the room.

Standing at the door of the West House, Tu Lin had a panoramic view of the whole house, but he didn't know whether it was because Ruan Tang cleaned it too clean, or because he was a teacher of manners since he was a child. Everywhere is neat and tidy.

Tu Lin walked around the room, and then stopped in front of the low cabinet in front of the window.He bent down and opened the low cabinet. When he saw the things in the low cabinet, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly.

Tu Lin took the thing out and took a closer look. Although the thing in his hand was a black ball and was badly burned, he could still see that it should be a bow.It's just that the bow is not big, not like a toy for adults, but like a toy for children.

Since the bow is placed in the low cabinet in Ruan Tang's room, it should belong to Ruan Tang, and it is also a very important thing. Otherwise, the bow would have become like this, and Ruan Tang would not have thrown it away, but kept it. But since it is an important thing, how could it be burned like this?

Tu Lin was wondering, but Ruan Tang came into the west room with a blanket and pillows in his arms.Because he planned to live in the west room by himself and let Tu Lin and Tu An live in the east room, Ruan Tang had already spread Tu Lin's and Tu An's quilts on the bed in the east room, and his own on the bed in the west room. Wishing to sleep in the east room, so he had to exchange their bedding back.But he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the door, he saw the thing in Tu Lin's hand, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Tu Lin didn't expect to be rummaging through other people's things, but was pretended to be serious by the owner. He couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, and said, "Sorry, I, I..." He wanted to say that he didn't rummage through Ruan Tang's things on purpose, but he Can't say it, because he did it on purpose.

Ruan Tang didn't seem to care much, and said to Tu Lin with a smile, "It's okay, I forgot that I still have this." Ruan Tang walked to the bed and changed the bedding for the two of them.

Tu Lin put down the things in his hands, and went to the bedside to help Ruan Tang change the quilt, but he couldn't help asking: "Is that a bow?"

"Did you see it?" Ruan Tang didn't mean to hide anything, and without waiting for Tu Lin to ask again, he continued: "My father made it for me when I was young, you know, my father is a hunter, and he is best at using bows and arrows But then my father passed away, and my mother was afraid that I would be like my father again, so she didn’t allow me to hunt anymore. This bow was also thrown into the stove by my mother and burned..."

"Sorry..." Tu Lin didn't want this to be the reason why the bow was burned, and it made Ruan Tang think of sad things.

"Why do you apologize again?" Seeing that Tu Lin seemed to be more sad than himself, Ruan Tang couldn't help feeling helpless, so he could only comfort him: "Don't worry about it, it's all in the past, I'm fine. It's getting late, Go to bed early, you'll be busy tomorrow."

After Ruan Tang finished speaking, he didn't intend to disturb Tu Lin anymore, and left the West Room with his quilt in his arms, and then returned to the East Room.After Ruan Tang left, Tu Lin looked at the dark bow on the low cabinet, and thought flashed in his eyes, then he put the bow back into the cabinet, and then lay back on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.

There was no dream all night, and the next morning, when the genius was dim, Tu Lin woke up.When he left the west room, Ruan Tang also came out from the east room, the two met each other, couldn't help but smiled at each other, and said good morning to each other.

"You used to come to the village often, so you're no stranger to it, but you probably haven't been outside the village before. Why don't I take you around the village and get familiar with it?" Ruan Tang suggested to Tu Lin, just in time to look for charcoal that is suitable for making of wood.

"Alright." Tu Lin naturally had nothing to disagree with, he wished that Ruan Tang and him could spend more time alone.

Then the two went out together.

The reason why Zhuxi Village is named Zhuxi Village is because there is a clear stream flowing in front of the village, and there are luxuriant bamboo clumps behind the village.Although it is also a small village in the countryside, it is very close to the county seat, and it takes only a moment to walk. It is also surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is much better than Lijiagou in the valley in terms of geographical location and surrounding environment. up.

Tu Lin followed Ruan Tang around Zhuxi Village, and then went to the bamboo forest and back mountain behind Zhuxi Village. While talking, the sky was already bright.Guessing that Tu An was about to wake up, the two walked back.

Since they planned to go home directly, they didn't take the long detour, but changed to a road closer to home, but they didn't want to have some accidents on the way.

Ruan Tang used to go into the mountains with his father when he was a child. He was very familiar with the shortcut, but he hadn't been there for several years.

So when Ruan Tang walked halfway, he didn't want a steep slope to be hidden behind the weeds half a person's height.

Fortunately, Tu Lin followed behind him step by step, grabbed him quickly with quick eyesight, but at this moment, he accidentally reappeared.Before Tu Lin came, he was about to pull Ruan Tang back, but the rocks and soil under his feet loosened, and his body was out of balance, and he was also pulled down the slope by the force of Ruan Tang's falling forward.

Ruan Tang didn't know that there was a steep slope here, and Tu Lin didn't know even more. The moment he fell, he didn't even dare to think about how high the steep slope was. He only had one instinctive thought in his heart, which was to protect Ruan Tang .

So he pulled Ruan Tang's arm and pulled Ruan Tang into his arms, and then wrapped one hand around Ruan Tang's waist, making the two of them stick tightly together, while the other hand held Ruan Tang's body. Pressing his head on his chest and protecting it with his arms, at the same time he twisted his body vigorously, holding Ruan Tang and spinning half a circle out of thin air, and the two of them became Ruan Tang on top and Tu Lin on the bottom.

Fortunately, the steep slope was not deep, so Tu Lin adjusted his posture, and the two of them fell to the ground with a bang, but it was not over yet.The two of them didn't fall to the bottom of the slope, but on the half-sloping steep slope, so as soon as they landed, Tu Lin hadn't recovered from his senses, and the two of them rolled down again.

Fortunately, the steep slope was not very long, but after a few breaths, the two reached the bottom and stopped.After a while, Tu Lin came back to his senses and opened his eyes to look around. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he slowly let go of his arms and let go of Ruan Tang.

Although they fell and rolled, Tu Lin protected Ruan Tang very tightly, and when he fell, he used it as a human cushion, and because of the cold weather, they had already changed into new thick jackets. Some were dirty and damaged, but the flesh on Ruan Tang's body was not injured at all.

Compared with Ruan Tang who was unscathed, Tu Lin looked a bit miserable. He was protecting Ruan Tang with both hands, but he couldn't protect himself, so his face and neck were covered with weeds and stones. Although the small cuts were not deep, there were red marks all over Ruan Tang's eyes.

"Are you okay? Did you fall? Did you have a headache? Let me see." As soon as Tu Lin let go, Ruan Tang saw the wound on Tu Lin's face. He immediately asked Tu Lin anxiously, ignoring himself.

How Tu Lin used him as a meat pad, and how he protected him, he remembered very clearly.Seeing that Tu Lin's face was injured like this, and he was still uncertain what happened to his body, and thinking that Tu Lin became a fool when he fell down the hillside and injured his head, he couldn't help becoming more worried and panicked, for fear that Tu Lin's head would be hurt like this. Where did we meet again?

"I'm fine, don't worry." Seeing that Ruan Tang's eyes were red with anxiety, Tu Lin hurriedly comforted him. Seeing that Ruan Tang couldn't believe it, he simply stood up, kicked his legs and shook his arms, in order to Acting to prove his words, he said, "Look, I can move anywhere, and it doesn't hurt anywhere. I'm really fine, don't worry—"

Tu Lin twisted his waist and expanded his chest while talking, but he didn't want to know which muscle was pulled, and there was a sharp pain. He didn't mind it for a while, and it immediately showed in his tone, and Ruan Tang heard it immediately. Out.

Ruan Tang hurriedly stood up, supported Tu Lin, and said, "Don't move around, be careful that the injury will get worse. Where does it hurt, the arm or the back?"

After being spotted, Tu Lin couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to be honest: "The back may have hurt a little when it fell, but it should be just a flesh injury. It's nothing serious, don't worry."

How could Ruan Tang not be worried, especially since Tu Lin suffered these injuries entirely because of him.He was the one who led Tu Lin on this road, and Tu Lin also injured himself to save him, to protect him, how could he remain indifferent.

But no matter how much Ruan Tang worried and blamed himself at this time, there was nothing he could do at the bottom of this hillside, so he had to go home first.So after temporarily confirming that Tu Lin was fine, Ruan Tang carefully supported Tu Lin, and the two continued down the mountain.This time, Ruan Tang was 12 points more careful, and he didn't encounter any steep slopes on the way, so the two quickly went down the mountain smoothly and returned home.
