"Brother, you went to help Xiaotang inquire this morning? Haha, brother, you are so kind. I want to thank you very much for Xiaotang!"
Da Mo's cheeks were bulging with potatoes and he said vaguely.
Lao Mo ignored Da Mo and continued: "Let's go after we finish eating. If you are young and don't stay with your family, you just run around and don't worry about it!"
Damo grinned: "Hey, Xiaotang didn't mean it. No, his brother went to urinate with his sister-in-law, and he was scared by a big python and ran away..."
Lao Mo glared at Da Mo, "Why do you say everything for him? He doesn't have a mouth?"
Damo was startled for a moment, grinned, and shrunk his neck without daring to say anything.
But at that moment, Yang Ruoqing secretly winked.
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyes, looked at Lao Mo, and said sincerely: "Brother Lao Mo, if you are interested, go and find out the way home for me early in the morning."
"I'm grateful to you from the bottom of my heart, but I'm really not familiar with this mountain, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten lost and wandered here like you..." she said.
"Then what do you mean?" Lao Mo glared at Yang Ruoqing.
"Is it possible that you want me to take you home in a big sedan chair with gongs and drums?" he asked again.
Yang Ruoqing had black lines on her head, "No, no, I really didn't mean that..."
"Then what do you mean?" Lao Mo asked, putting the potatoes back on the table and looking at Yang Ruoqing seriously.
"I'm just going to talk to you. We don't have the time to send you back. It's such a long mountain road, and it's going to delay people to death!" Lao Mo said.
Yang Ruoqing quickly waved her hand and said: "No need to send it away, no need to send it away, what I mean is, I haven't gone back all night, and my brother and the others will most likely come out of these cottages to look for me."
"Can I stay with you for two more days until my brother comes to pick me up?"
"What?" Lao Mo frowned.
"You mean, you still want to live in my house?" he asked.
Xiao Mo, who was at the same table, started shouting unhappily.
"No, no, our family doesn't even have enough food. If he eats one more potato this morning, it will make me eat one less potato. No, no, no!"
Damo said: "Third brother, don't say such things, Xiaotang gave us five cents!"
Xiao Mo said: "Pork still costs fifteen cents per catty. He can't even buy half a catty of pork with his five cents. Why should we let him wait in our house for free?"
Da Mo frowned and was too lazy to argue with Xiao Mo. He turned to Lao Mo and begged: "Brother, this mountain road is not easy to walk on. I think Xiaotang Wenwen is weak. He must have been spoiled by his brother and sister-in-law at home. No. Why do you do heavy work?"
"I'm not worried about letting him walk such a long mountain road alone. Let's just let him wait at our house until his family comes to pick him up..."
"Second brother, he has to eat it every day!" Xiao Mo shouted, eager to snatch the half potato that Yang Ruoqing was holding in her hand.
Seeing this, Da Mo directly stuffed the potatoes in his hand into Xiao Mo's hand.
"At worst, I won't eat in the past few days, and my share will be given to Brother Xiaotang, right?" Da Mo asked Xiao Mo in a rough voice.
Xiao Mo stuffed Da Mo’s potatoes into his mouth and devoured them.
Damo turned around and looked at Lao Mo, the head of the family.
Lao Mo had already stuffed the pipe of dry tobacco into his mouth, and was smoking with a gloomy face.
Behind the lingering smoke, something tangled was surging in Lao Mo's eyes.
After a while, Lao Mo pulled out the tobacco stick in his hand and knocked it on the table leg. "Three days, three days at most. After three days, it doesn't matter whether his family can find him or not, he has to leave!"
After saying these words, Lao Mo stood up and left the house with his hands behind his back.
Here, Omo was so excited that he almost jumped from his stool.
"Xiaotang, did you hear that? My brother promised to let you stay!" he said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded.
She was moved by Damo's enthusiasm and kindness.
And Lao Mo, who seems to be a majestic parent, is simple and rude, but he shouldn't be that bad at heart.
As for Xiaomo...
When Xiao Mo announced this, he stood up angrily and ran back to the backyard. Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to grab the last potato on the table and take it away.
Here, Damo couldn't wait to come to Yang Ruoqing. He was so excited that he reached out to take Yang Ruoqing's hand, but Yang Ruoqing quickly stepped aside.
"Brother Damo, thank you for helping me say nice things to your brother." She said with a smile.
Damo said happily: "Oh, it's okay. You are the guest I brought back. Of course I want you to be reunited with your family safely."
"Xiaotang, you can stay at my house with peace of mind these days. If your brother and the others haven't come to pick you up in three days, I will send you back!" he said.
"But Brother Damo, you haven't been to Sunjiagou, so you don't know the way there..." Yang Ruoqing said.
Damo grinned, "The road is on your mouth, it's okay, we will definitely find it, don't worry!"
Yang Ruoqing nodded and was moved by Damo again.
But I thought in my heart, Tang Yazi should be coming today. When the time comes, I will let him lurk in the small bamboo forest at the entrance of the village and observe for three days before making any plans.
"Brother Damo, I can't eat these potatoes. Please help me eat them." Yang Ruoqing gave Damo her potatoes.
"I just pinched the food and didn't bite it with my mouth. Don't worry." She added.
Damo smiled: "You are all big men, why do you still care about this?"
"It's just that if I eat, won't you be hungry?" he asked again.
Yang Ruoqing shook her head: "I usually don't eat much in the morning. You can eat it!"
Damo was not polite, he opened his mouth and took a big bite, his cheeks suddenly stretched out.
A slit was completed for his eyes, and his face was filled with a happy smile.
Seeing the ugly-looking Damo eating so happily and smiling so much.
Yang Ruoqing suddenly felt that sometimes happiness is really just a state of mind.
Damo should be a person who has the sun in his heart and is very warm, so he is very happy.
The only flaw is that he looks too ugly, and he was born in such a rough place.
So you are destined to be lonely!
"Brother Damo, what are you planning to do in the morning?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Damo said: "There is a piece of land behind the village that is planted with peanuts. My brother asked me to pull out those peanuts."
"Xiaotang, it's boring for you to be alone at home. Do you want to go pull peanuts from the field with me?" Damo asked.
Yang Ruoqing originally wanted to find an excuse not to go. The purpose of her coming here was to supervise Tuobaling, not to go to the mountains and countryside to participate in labor.
Before I could find an excuse to refuse, I walked out of the house and returned.
"Da Mo, when you went to pull the peanuts in the morning, you didn't need to bring them home. You just sold the peanuts on the ground!" Lao Mo said as he entered the house.
