"Would you like to go over and play for a while?" Ye Xiaoqing tilted his head and looked at Chen Muyu.
To be honest, it's hard to say no.
Wandering around here alone is boring, picking fruits is still sour, and he doesn't want to go back to find Xu Sifeng and the others, chatting with the two old men, it is even more boring.
It just so happens that we go to the farmhouse for a while. At least it's cool there and there aren't so many mosquito bites.
…
The little girl was very hospitable, chatting with Chen Muyu all the way, and soon arrived at the farmhouse.
Fangjie Farmhouse.
Sister Fang is Ye Xiaoqing's grandmother, her surname is Bai and her given name is Bai Yufang.
She is not very old, she is less than sixty years old, and she looks like a very capable old lady.
When Chen Muyu arrived, he was drying clothes in the yard.
"grandmother!"
After entering the hospital, Ye Xiaoqing shouted sweetly.
"Where have you been? I just called you for a long time!" The old lady didn't even look back.
"Walking around the canal, grandma, look, I brought my friends here!" Ye Xiaoqing ran over and obediently helped the old lady dry her clothes.
friend?
The old lady turned back to look at Chen Muyu. When she saw this handsome young man, her eyes lit up, but then she became obviously wary.
Chen Muyu was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he quickly explained that he was just fishing with his elders and met Ye Xiaoqing by chance.
When she heard that she was here for fun, the old lady's face quickly became filled with joy and she became enthusiastic, "How long are you planning to play? Do you want accommodation?"
It doesn't matter whether the young man is handsome or not, the key thing is that the business is coming.
Chen Muyu laughed dryly, "Forget it about accommodation, we may be in Qingshan in the afternoon, and we can only have lunch at most!"
"Lunch is fine, too. If you want something to eat, I'll bring you a menu and prepare it for you first. You can come over at any time. I have a lot of private dishes here. The taste is absolutely incredible, and the prices are absolutely fair...
"
Bai Yufang was very enthusiastic. She left her clothes to Ye Xiaoqing to dry, and then ran over to solicit customers.
He directly led Chen Muyu to the dining room, walked over with the menu, and handed the menu to Chen Muyu's hand with a smile.
Chen Muyu looked around, a little confused, "Why are there no other guests?"
This posture always gives me the feeling of entering a black shop. No matter how I look at this Bai Yufang, I have a sense of déjà vu as Hu Sanniang.
"well!"
When Bai Yufang heard this, she sighed, "Business is hard to do, but it used to be fine. On weekends, there would always be several waves of people coming to the area to fish, and some would come to experience life, pick tea leaves, and touch them."
Fish and loach business is still so-so. Didn't something happen last month? A fisherman was bitten by a snake by the river, and it was on the news, so no one came..."
"You said, I was bitten by a snake. It's like no one has been bitten before, and it makes the news!"
"The same goes for TV stations. They can't find news reports or something. Such a thing is worthy of exaggeration. I also want to make an expert suggestion. There are many snakes and insects in summer, so try not to come to this kind of place..."
"What's wrong with a place like this? I've lived here for decades, haven't I lived well?"
…
While talking, Bai Yufang also started using swear words. It was obvious that the business of the farmhouse was not good, which had a great impact on her mood.
"Are there many snakes around here?" Chen Muyu asked.
Xu Sifeng and the others were still fishing by the canal. If there were really many snakes, Chen Muyu would have to go back and remind them to be careful.
"Ouch."
Bai Yufang was helpless, "Our place is a mountainous area. Isn't it normal to have snakes? You city dwellers have never seen it before, so you know what the fuss is about. That person was like this that day. It was just a cauliflower snake, and it is not poisonous.
It feels like being bitten by a cobra. As long as you don't go into the woods or into the grass, you won't be able to touch the snake..."
Chen Muyu nodded slightly, people are afraid of snakes, and snakes are also afraid of people. If you don't take the initiative to provoke it, it will not provoke you for no reason.
After looking at the menu, he felt that the prices were quite reasonable, so Chen Muyu ordered a table for three people, which was only five or six dishes, adding up to more than two hundred yuan.
Bai Yufang's face was filled with smile again.
"We also have a fruit forest in our backyard. If you are interested, you can go and have a look. There are also several fields over there with a lot of eels and loaches. You can ask Xiaoqing to take you to play with them. There is a chess and card room next to it.
But you are the only one..."
Bai Yufang smiled and introduced other projects to Chen Muyu.
Chen Muyu was perfunctory. Needless to say, these projects must require payment. It doesn't matter if they charge money. The key point is that he really has no interest.
Bai Yufang reached out and took the menu.
Chen Muyu discovered that something seemed to be reflecting light on the old lady's right wrist.
At first he thought he was wearing some jewelry, but now he got closer and took a closer look, and found that it was a circle of small green things, like a layer of fish scales.
"What are you doing?" Chen Muyu subconsciously pointed at the old lady's wrist and asked.
The old lady was stunned for a moment, then inadvertently pulled up her long sleeves and covered her wrists, "It's okay, it's just an old problem. Let Xiaoqing lead you to play for a while. I'll prepare lunch first..."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Muyu stood there in astonishment, thinking that this old lady must not have any skin diseases. You must know that many skin diseases are contagious. This...
"What's wrong, Brother Muyu?" Ye Xiaoqing stood next to Chen Muyu at some point.
"Well……"
Chen Muyu came back to his senses and laughed dryly, "Nothing, I just saw it on your grandma's wrist..."
"Oh, you said that."
Ye Xiaoqing said, "It seems to be some kind of skin disease. I heard that it is difficult to cure. My mother also has it, but it is not as serious as my grandma's. I have gone to many doctors, but nothing has been cured, but fortunately it is not contagious..."
"oh?"
Chen Muyu was surprised, "Your mother has it too? Isn't it genetic?"
Looking at Ye Xiaoqing in front of me, such a lovely little girl, how disgusting would it be if she had such a thing?
"I do not have to die."
Ye Xiaoqing squinted his eyes and smiled. The cheerful little girl led Chen Muyu to the backyard. "My grandma and my mother used to worry that it would be passed on to me, so they used realgar wine to bathe them since I was a child. Over the years, I have always taken good care of it."
Yes, there is no problem with the hospital physical examination..."
"Xiao Qing, what are you talking about? Go to the field and catch two eels for me!"
Bai Yufang's voice came from the front yard. This old lady had really good ears and could hear the conversation between the two from such a distance.
"Grandma, I didn't say anything."
Xiao Qing scratched her throat and replied, then stuck out her tongue at Chen Muyu, and quickly led Chen Muyu farther away, towards the paddy fields behind the house.
