Song Qiu took Zhang Lihua all the way up the mountain, leaving the two courtyards at the foot of the mountain behind. When they arrived at Ear Mountain, they stopped to rest.
The bamboo forest in Ershan Mountain is the coolest. The two little girls hid in the shade between two clumps of bamboo. People outside here couldn't see them at a glance, but they could see people outside. It was the easiest place to hide.
Got it.
There was a hot wind in the mountains in the afternoon, and there was no sunshine, so it seemed a bit cool.
Taking out the water bag and the pumpkin leaves from the backpack, Song Qiu handed them over and said, "Lihua, eat quickly. The pancakes I spread out for you also have shredded pumpkin meat! They're still warm now."
Zhang Lihua smiled brightly and said, "I knew you would definitely bring me something to eat, Ah Qiu!"
Then he took it, opened the pumpkin leaves, and looked at the pancakes inside, his eyes turned red, "It's the pancakes from the white noodle stall! Ah Qiu, you are so good to me!"
Then he picked up a burrito and ate it, "It's delicious! I'm starving to death!"
"Eat slowly, there's so much, you'll be full! After eating these three burritos, there are still five pancakes left. After picking up the mountain mushrooms, you can eat them all before going down the mountain. You won't be hungry at night.
" Song Qiu said.
Zhang Lihua was very hungry. Her mouth was full and she couldn't spare any time to speak. She just nodded her head to show that she understood.
"Stop choking, this is all yours, I won't fight with you." Song Qiu looked funny, but he was afraid that she would choke, so he opened the water bag and was ready to hand it to her at any time.
After finishing three burritos in a row, Zhang Lihua patted her belly with satisfaction, took the water bag and drank a large amount of water to relieve her dry mouth after eating the pancakes.
Then he said: "Ah Qiu, thank you again today, and Grandma Yuan."
"I remember last time when my mother didn't allow me to eat, Grandma Yuan also asked you to give me two cooked sweet potato eggs."
That time, the uncle's youngest daughter, Sister Meihua, came back to stay for a few days. She accidentally poured the pig food she was carrying onto Sister Meihua's new shoes.
Then her mother punished her by kneeling for an hour, cleaning Sister Meihua's shoes, and not allowing her to eat for a whole day.
But she was clearly feeding her pigs in the backyard, but Sister Meihua insisted on coming to show her how beautiful her new shoes were, and even laughed at her for wearing them with holes in them and exposing her toes.
snort.
Aren't you happy that she was "accidental"?
She did it on purpose, so she will be punished.
But every time she has Aqiu!
Zhang Lihua was thinking to herself, looking at Song Qiu, her eyes turned into crescent moons.
"Aqiu, I love you the most in this life, the next life, and the next life. I will always be a good sister with you!"
Song Qiu couldn't help but laugh when she heard that. She raised her hand and touched her thickly decorated earlobe, "I'm only three days older than you. My mother and your mother only have one month of confinement! My mother doesn't have enough milk.
I even drank your mother’s milk! She is my mother when she breastfeeds, and your mother is half my mother, so won’t you be my sister for life? That’s a kiss! Closer than anyone else!”
Zhang Lihua nodded heavily, "Yes, yes, we are closer than anyone else!"
Song Qiu grinned, thinking about today's events, his mood became lighter after all, but he didn't want Lihua to remember being sad, so he didn't mention it more, and just said: "It will only be two or three years, it will be fine then."
Now, like Aunt Shuiqin, she can live on her own, and Uncle Wang also loves and respects her, how nice it is."
Zhang Lihua is used to it. She knows that Aqiu is worried about her and afraid that she will feel regretful.
He smiled broadly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm not sad. Originally, it was my fault for hiding the money. How could it happen that my fourth uncle found out about it? If you really want to know that I won five taels of silver and didn't take it out, you wouldn't be angry and agree."
If I hid it, that would be weird!"
"It's good now. Just take it out. Otherwise it will be known sooner or later. If I use it, it will really break my legs."
As she said that, Zhang Lihua covered her mouth and smiled like a mouse, "Fortunately, I had enough rice dumplings yesterday, otherwise we would have gone to Jingweizhai for a big meal, and the money would have been lost."
Song Qiu originally felt a little sad for her, but when he saw her acting like a baby, he couldn't help but feel happy.
This kid!
He is really self-healing and very optimistic.
Zhang Lihua had finished playing tricks and saw that Song Qiu was also smiling. She couldn't help but feel relieved. She put her hands on the back of her head and lay back, "Oh, but, you didn't look at my grandpa's expression when he was sitting in the room today.
, To be honest, I don’t know why, and I can’t explain it. I always feel that when my grandma scolds me and hits me, it’s better than my father’s expression. I don’t remember my grandma hitting me, but in my heart, I always feel
Remember what my grandfather was like at that time."
She couldn't explain why, but she just felt that that expression made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Obviously, although grandpa has always been cold, he has never beaten or scolded her or spoken harsh words to her.
And when her mother scolds her, she will also beg her to give her some delicious food during the New Year. If her mother doesn't share it with her, her grandfather will share it with her.
It was obvious that she was protecting him, just like Xiancai, she was very angry and beat her and scolded her so much. In the end, it was her father who begged her for mercy, but she felt weird.
Maybe she knew since she was a child that this grandpa was not her real grandpa, so there was always a barrier in her heart.
Zhang Lihua couldn't figure it out, but fortunately she didn't feel sorry for people who thought too much about Spring and Autumn, and quickly threw them aside.
"It's shady and cool here. Let's take a rest and then go pick mountain mushrooms."
"okay."
Song Qiu also lay down, turned his head and glanced at Zhang Lihua's profile. After a long time, he asked her, "Does your body hurt?"
Zhang Lihua groaned before she realized what she was asking. She simply turned sideways to face Song Qiu, and reached out to pat her shoulder back, "It doesn't hurt. The broom doesn't have any thorns, either."
A stick can't beat someone bad."
As she said this, she thought of something and chuckled, "I guess my grandma was so angry with me that she didn't even know what she was doing. Otherwise, there would be a fire stick next to the broom, which would be no better than a broom!"
Song Qiu listened and somehow thought of the time when she was about to rush out but her mother held her tight.
It’s obvious that Nai Nai also loves Lihua very much, but it’s Grandma Deng who beats people for no reason and she doesn’t even say a word of advice? Good sisters are not like this and blindly think that she is right, right?
It's a bit strange and I can't explain it.
Song Qiu shook her head. The hot wind blew on her face, which hit her head a little. Her eyelids were also tight and she felt a little sleepy. She simply didn't think about it anymore.
I don’t know if I fell asleep completely, or I don’t know how long I slept.
Suddenly, Song Qiu seemed to hear some strange noise.
In his previous life, he went home in the middle of the night and was followed by gangsters. He eventually got into a fight with the gangster and had his head broken. Fortunately, he scared away the gangster who was not too courageous. Later, Song Qiu was always alert and sensitive to danger.
Almost immediately, the hairs all over her body stood on end, and she immediately opened her eyes.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw several big men in black clothes through the gaps between several bamboo trees.
Danger!
Without any hesitation, Song Qiu grabbed the hatchet and carried it up the mountain.
Fortunately, she found a few dead trees in the mountains in the morning. She planned to cut down bundles of them and use them as firewood at home, so she brought a hatchet.
