Jiang Xiao gritted his teeth: "Si Ran, can you take care of this girl with her elbows turned outwards?"
Wen Siran rubbed his brow: "If you can't control it, you can."
"A little bit~" Wen Shanshan stuck out her tongue at Jiang Xiao, made a face, and then continued eating.
She didn't forget about business. After she finished eating, Qingzhi would take her for a ride.
On the other side, Xu Qingzhi sent his grandfather away and asked him to go fishing and pay attention to safety, while he wandered around the house alone.
She touched the quilt on the bed, and it was indeed very damp. A layer of yellow light invisible to ordinary people lingered in her palms. After a while, the damp quilt seemed to be dry.
After leaving the room, she picked up the iron broom in the corner, swept the floor, and filled the water tank with the water pipe.
Going out the back door is the backyard of Grandpa's house.
The left side used to be a pigsty, but now it has become a chicken coop, with more than a dozen chickens and ducks raised.
She led the spiritual spring water into the sink, and the chickens and ducks rushed to drink the water like crazy.
Walking further back, there was the vegetable field opened by grandpa. She poured it with water from the spiritual spring, and the green onions that had just been pulled out suddenly grew out. She quickly stopped and diluted the water from the spiritual spring before plowing the vegetable field.
Watered it again.
There is a mountain behind the vegetable field of Grandpa's house. Xu Qingzhi used to go to this mountain to play, but rarely went there after moving to a new home.
I haven’t been there for many years and I miss it a bit.
She went up along the side path, and there were dense pine needle trees on both sides of the uphill road.
This slope was Xu Qingzhi's favorite place when he was a child. A thick layer of brown pine needles fell on the dirt. People would sit on the top of the slope and then slide down, and then they would go down with a 'shuttle'.
The wind in the mountains and fields blows through my ears, not to mention how fun it is.
She was thinking about this and thought that when she went down later, she would come back for a while.
She continued walking up, and there were no pine needles on the more open road. There were tea seed trees more than one meter high along the road, and the yellow soil was exposed. Fortunately, it didn't rain, so the soil would not stick to her shoes.
Not far away, the one-meter-high mountain temple is still there.
When she was a child, she loved to look for tea ears on the tea seed trees here. Tea seed trees are hard to find in other places, and even when they are found, they are not very tasty. However, the area next to the mountain temple has the most tea ears, and they are delicious.
It tastes crispy and sweet.
Xu Qingzhi felt a little greedy when he thought about it, but unfortunately it was not available now, only around the Qingming Festival.
Standing on the top of the hillside, the wind is very strong, and you can almost see the entire Taoshui Village, and you can also see the current Xu family.
I saw a pile of white bones on the roadside, which looked like the bones of a dead wild dog.
She didn't care, and walked forward again, up a small slope, and she arrived at grandma's grave.
There is no tombstone, just a tomb-like shape of yellow soil, with two evergreen trees on both sides.
She held a white chrysanthemum in her hand, leaned over and placed it in front of the grave bag, and said in a brisk tone, "Grandma, I'm here to see you."
"Grandpa has recently fallen in love with fishing, has he told you?"
"Don't tell me, grandpa is very talented at fishing. Other old men are not as good at fishing as him."
As she muttered something in her mouth, she leaned over and pulled out the weeds growing around her. When she looked up, she saw a deep round hole on the side of the grave.
"The damn stinking rat is here to dig holes again!"
She was very angry. With a wave of her hand, the big mouse inside was thrown far away. She dug up the soil with her hands and sealed the hole.
"Grandma, don't be angry. Grandpa is not being stingy by not allowing the tomb to be repaired. He just wants to be by your side in the future."
She made a secret with her fingers and covered the grave bag.
"Grandma, it's better now, the smelly rats won't bother you anymore."
She continued to bend down and pull weeds, muttering in her mouth: "Grandpa is living a good life. He has found the joy of fishing. His legs don't hurt anymore. But his eyes are still not good. I'll think of a solution."
Grandma, don’t worry over there, I will take good care of grandpa."
"Zijun is good at studying and has always been very sensible."
"As for me, now I am growing vegetables at home and spending time with my parents."
"Grandma, you must have noticed that I am different from before. You are the person who knows me best. If you were still here, my little secret would have nowhere to hide. Your eldest aunt wouldn't let you go back to your hometown when you were alive.
When I get better, I'll take you back to your hometown, okay?"
The wind in the mountains and fields whizzes past.
Xu Qingzhi's lips curled up: "Then let's just say it, I'll take you back to have a look when the time comes."
She finished weeding, threw it into the thorns aside, and waved her hand: "Grandma, I'm leaving. I'll see you next time."
Xu Qingzhi went down the mountain after watching Grandma.
When she reached the downhill slope, she sat on the ground just like she did when she was a child. Just as she was about to shuttle down, she discovered that there were many pine hair fungi under the pine trees on both sides.
What a delicious gift from nature.
She diverted the water from the spiritual spring, and a transparent water ball rose in the air, exploded like a balloon, and fell on the pine hair fungus like raindrops.
Then, she leaned back slightly and slid down the slope.
Laughter like silver bells echoed in the mountains and fields.
Xu Qingzhi went back to find the bamboo basket and was about to pick pine fungi, when Wen Shanshan came over after lunch...
"Qingzhi, what are you going to do?"
"I saw pine hair fungus in the back mountain and I want to pick it and eat it. Will you go?"
When Wen Shanshan heard this, she said, "Go ahead and pick mushrooms. I have never picked mushrooms with my own hands."
Jiang Xiao pushed Wen Siran over and looked at Wen Shanshan speechlessly: "You don't care about your brother anymore?"
Wen Shanshan stared at Jiang Xiao impatiently. There was so much going on, but her brother didn't even say anything.
Seeing this, Xu Qingzhi pointed to the back: "If you want to go too, you can watch it in the vegetable field at the back. The pine hair fungus is on the mountain in front, not far away."
So, Xu Qingzhi took Wen Shanshan to pick pine fungi.
Jiang Xiao pushed Wen Silan and actually followed him to the vegetable field.
Fortunately, although it is a vegetable patch, there are wooden boards on the way there, otherwise the wheelchair would be covered in mud.
"Siran, I don't think I've seen your sister fall in love. Could it be that she likes girls?" Jiang Xiao frowned and asked.
Wen Siran was holding a thermos cup in his hand and was taking a sip of water. He almost choked. He choked and said: "Probably not. When I was a child, I heard that she had a crush on a little boy. But she was very tough-talking.
She refused to say which man it was, probably because she was afraid that I would hit him."
"That's it." Jiang Xiao looked at the back of the person who was picking mushrooms happily behind others, "I've never seen her wrapped around someone's back before. This is the first time I've seen her. It's really strange."
"It's good to know someone lightly, and it's also good for Shanshan." After Wen Siran finished speaking, the cell phone in his pocket rang, "Brother Xiao, let me answer the phone."
Jiang Xiao nodded, keeping his eyes on the mushroom picking area.
Wen Siran answered the phone.
"Si Ran, the matter has been handled for you. The people on Weibo clarified and apologized, and the people who complained about Miss Xu have also been handled. I took the initiative to contact the Huo family lawyer and asked, and Miss Xu also agreed to the compensation plan.
, this matter is finally resolved."
"Okay, thank you very much, Uncle Zhang."
"It's a small thing. Those vegetables, are they really good? I read online that they were amazing. My wife made a fuss and told me that she wanted to buy them, but she didn't even join me."
