"Come on, come on, wait for me! Don't run so fast! Watch the road carefully!"
Ah Zhi quickly called out to Zhong Mo, but Zhong Mo had already pushed the trolley and disappeared around the corner.
Zhong Mo pushed the cart quickly on the road, but did not notice that after walking this section, the road ahead suddenly turned downhill.
The cart went faster and faster along the downhill road. But Zhong Mo was still immersed in the excitement of getting faster and faster, and even wanted to speed up. When her eyes caught someone in front of her, it was too late to brake.
"Be careful! Uncle! Get out of the way!"
Qian Yanjun, who was on duty, had quick eyesight and quick hands. He reached out and grabbed Zhong Mo from behind the trolley and lifted her up. However, Zhong Mo still held on to the trolley tightly, causing Qian Yanjun to pull the trolley too.
They were lifted into the air together.
Manman fell out of the cart and bounced and rolled forward along the ground until he rolled into the bushes and hit something.
Qian Yanjun looked at the trolley swinging in front of him, showed a speechless expression, and put her down.
"Kid, it's very dangerous for you to play like this. Where are the adults in your family?"
Zhong Mo lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
"I'm sorry, uncle."
Seeing the aggrieved look on this cute little girl's face, Qian Yanjun waved his hand.
"Forget it, be careful next time, it's very dangerous."
At this time, Ah Zhi, who was following behind, came late panting.
"Xiao Mo, walk slower! Don't run around alone!"
"You're a straight girl. Are you here to buy groceries again?"
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the two of them to talk to each other, Zhong Mo ran away quietly again and got into the bushes that rolled in.
Ah Zhi looked at Qian Yanjun and said, "It's you, Brother Liu, is it your turn to be on duty again?"
Although Qianyan Army has no plan to garrison troops in the village, because a group of elderly people are prone to accidents, Qianyan Army will send a Qianyan Army on duty in the village to avoid any accidents.
"I can't help it, who made me a new recruit?"
"Brother Liu, please take your time on duty. I won't disturb you on guard duty. I'll go buy groceries first?"
"Go ahead, buy fresh vegetables, as you said last time. By the way, remember to keep an eye on the children."
"I will, I will. Goodbye, Brother Liu."
Ah Zhi turned around and looked to the side of the cart. Zhong Mo's figure had long disappeared.
"Xiao Mo? Xiao Mo! Where did this child go?"
In the bushes not far away, Zhong Mo stretched out a hand and emerged from the bushes.
"Sister Azhi, I'm here!"
Azhi sighed, carrying the pole on his shoulder and holding the cart with one hand free as he walked over.
"Xiao Mo, don't run around alone. We will enter the market later. Be careful of losing it."
"Okay, okay, I understand, Sister Azhi."
Zhong Mo put Manman back in the trolley, walked around behind the trolley, and took the trolley from Azhi's hand.
"Let's go, let's go! Sister Azhi."
Looking at Zhong Mo who seemed like nothing had happened, Azhi sighed helplessly. His thoughts of finding someone to get married and settle down seemed to have been diluted a lot.
"Oh, you kid."
Azhi led Zhong Mo into Beiheng Village. Along the road, they came to a shady spot under a huge rock. Before they got closer, they saw a long corridor composed of vegetable stalls lined up in two regular rows.
Because they are all old people, and everyone has little energy, there is basically no shouting. Everyone just writes the price on the sign in front of the stall, and then chats with the old people around them.
It is said to be a vegetable market, but in fact the old people just agreed to get together every once in a while. The old people basically do not lack any material needs in life, but if someone is missing from the vegetable market one day, it means that they
One generation was missing again, so everyone went directly to his home to say goodbye to him.
Selling vegetables is just a special form of this farewell party.
Ah Zhi led Zhong Mo to an old lady's stall with ease.
"Grandma Shu!"
"Oh, it's Ah Zhi, here to buy groceries again? Why don't you see Ah Ben?"
"Ah Ben, he has something to do and he won't come."
"What's wrong? Are you quarreling? Tell grandma and she will help you teach him a lesson!"
Ah Zhi held his forehead and showed a speechless expression.
"Grandma, I've said it several times! We are just colleagues! Colleagues! It's not that kind of relationship!"
"Grandma just doesn't want you to end up like grandma in the future. Alas, one idiot is enough."
Azhi shook his head helplessly.
"Oh, grandma is saying strange things again."
While Azhi and Grandma Shuzhi were talking, an old man was sitting at a stall not far away, fanning himself on a couch, looking at the two of them, and showing a strange expression from time to time.
"Alas, Sister Shu."
"Grandpa, what are you looking at?"
Suddenly, a young and cute voice came from beside the old grandfather. The voice came from beside him, and he lowered his head and looked.
A little brown-haired girl stood behind his stall, with half of her head exposed on her feet, looking in the direction he was looking.
The old man looked at Zhong Mo and thought strangely.
"Which family's baby is this? I haven't heard of any children from the village coming back recently?"
He looked at Zhong Mo and asked him, "Kid, what's your name? Who's the kid from that family?"
"Hello, grandpa! My name is Zhong Mo, and my brother's name is Zhong Li!"
The old man thought for a moment and began to search for something in his blurred memory.
"Zhongli? Is there such a person in our village? Is it because I am too old to remember? Oh, yes, my brain can hardly even remember the image of Sister Shuzhi in my mind."
"Grandpa is saying strange things again?"
"You are still young, what do you know? When you live to my age, it is better to look forward to the future and remember the past. By the way, little guy, do you want to eat the fruit?"
When Zhong Mo heard what he said, he immediately pointed to the apricots on the stall and said, "Grandpa, I want to eat this!"
"Okay, okay, little guy, just call me Grandpa Liu. I feel like I'm not that old yet!"
People in the village generally call him Old Uncle Liu, but it is still a bit inappropriate for a child to call him that.
Old man Liu picked out a few apricots, washed them with water, put them on a clean cloth, and placed them in front of Zhong Mo.
"Grandpa Liu, you haven't told Xiaomo what you were watching just now?"
Azhi, who had finished chatting with Grandma Shuzhi over there, finally planned to go to the next store to buy some ingredients. However, when she turned around, she saw that there was no one behind the cart.
There was only one slime left in the cart, looking at her and blinking, with big eyes and small eyes.
