Shen Mei nodded, and the little girl happily took the oranges and stuffed them into her mouth, making her mouth water.
"Here, take a few more slices..."
Seeing that the little girl was eating happily, Liu Dazhu gave her a lot more. The little girl's face turned red with joy and she looked very pretty.
Liu Dazhu kept watching the child eat, but he didn't eat even one piece. When there was only the last piece left, the little girl refused to take it anymore.
"Brother, you eat, it's delicious, you eat this..." She kept pushing Liu Dazhu's hand towards his mouth.
"Okay, big brother, eat..."
Liu Dazhu happily put the last piece of orange into his mouth and tasted it carefully. He felt that the taste was indeed very good.
"The oranges grown in the mountains are so sweet." He couldn't help but praise them.
"Yes, these oranges are delicious, and I can sell them at a good price every time I bring them to the city, but those people just now were so bad, ugh..." Shen Mei couldn't help but sigh again.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely help you..."
Seeing the mountains full of messy soil and sewage flowing everywhere, Liu Dazhu couldn't stand it anymore. He was determined to help the people in Beijiao Village. It was relatively close to the city, even if it was the Jinlong Gang in the city. If there was any danger, he would rush over to help in time.
"You, are you really not afraid of them? There are many of them, just a few of them."
Of course, Shen Mei didn't want to involve a good man like Liu Dazhu in being beaten, so she told him about her powerful relationship in advance.
"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid..." Liu Dazhu looked at Shen Mei with a smile. He felt that he had an obligation to help this orphan and widowed mother so that good people could live a happy life.
Shen Mei blushed, and then asked: "What is your name? Where are you from, and why are you in our village?"
"My name is Liu Dazhu. I'm a doctor. I came here today to treat Grandpa Yang's wife in your village. I happened to meet Xiaoya going to call someone, so I came..."
"Oh, you are a doctor. You need to give Grandma Yang a good look at her illness. She is very ill..."
At this time, while Shen Mei was talking, she walked to the orange tree and started picking oranges again with a basket.
Xiaoya is a child after all. At this time, she seems to have forgotten the danger just now. She is running back and forth in the small orchard, shuttling between the orange trees, like a beautiful butterfly.
Shen Mei reached out to pick oranges. Her floral cloth clothes were a little short. When she stood on tiptoe and reached out to pick oranges, the clothes would go up with her, revealing a lot of her waist, which was very white and smooth, even though she had been working on the mountain all day. Farm work, but Shen Mei's skin is very good, so white that it makes people feel like they have been frozen.
"Sister-in-law, what's your name..." Liu Dazhu walked over and helped her pick oranges. The two of them were very close. Waves of sweat-smelling aroma floated from Shen Mei's clothes for Liu Dazhu to smell. The fever became even more intense, my heart was filled with excitement, and I felt an uncontrollable rush.
"My name is Shen Mei, sister-in-law Plum." Shen Mei said while picking oranges.
"Okay, Sister-in-law Plum, that's a good title, I like Sister-in-law Plum, hahaha..." Liu Dazhu looked like a fool, and after finishing speaking, he continued to pick oranges with a smile.
Shen Mei's face was flushed. She glanced sideways at the young man standing beside her to help, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He is a good person, but he has a bad mouth. He just said that he likes him after they met him. It is too simple to say that he likes him. Shen Mei pretends not to know and continues to go to the other side to pick oranges.
Seeing Shen Mei walking to another tree, Liu Dazhu was a little depressed. He didn't know why Mei Zi's sister-in-law left suddenly. Didn't she say well just now? Did he say something wrong again?
Liu Dazhu thought for a while and seemed to suddenly understand something. Just now, when he said he liked Sister-in-law Meizi, he meant that he liked the title. Could it be that she had misunderstood?
Liu Dazhu turned his head and looked over, and found that Shen Mei was picking oranges with a red face. He didn't know what he was thinking. However, Liu Dazhu knew that Shen Mei had misunderstood him, but he did not explain it because there was nothing to explain. , I really like this mother and daughter, so even if it is a misunderstanding, it is nothing.
After Shen Mei picked the entire basket full of oranges, she wiped her sweat and stopped.
"Okay, let's go down the mountain. These will be sold in the market early tomorrow morning, and we can buy some oil and salt when we come back..."
Shen Mei held a basket full of oranges in one hand and reached out to hold Xiaoya's hand, but Liu Dazhu had already taken the lead, walked over and picked up Xiaoya.
"Sister-in-law Meizi, let me carry Xiaoya down the mountain..."
"Well, okay, okay, please, Dazhu..."
Shen Mei smiled and walked down the mountain. Liu Dazhu walked behind with Xiaoya in his arms. He felt very happy watching Shen Mei twisting her buttocks.
Shen Mei is already thirty, but she is still as tender as a girl. These hard days in the mountains have not erased her youth and beauty, but have made her beauty look more natural and healthy, with a fresh earthy taste.
All the way down the mountain, Xiaoya was very naughty and pinched Liu Dazhu's nose.
"Xiaoya, where is your dad? Where has he gone?"
Seeing Shen Mei walking a little further, Liu Dazhu quietly asked the little girl that he just heard from Grandpa Yang that Xiaoya didn't have a father, but he didn't know why.
When Liu Dazhu asked about her father, the little girl suddenly pouted and stopped moving.
"What's wrong, oh oh oh, Xiaoya won't cry, big brother asked the wrong question, I won't ask again..."
Seeing that the little girl seemed about to cry, Liu Dazhu quickly comforted her, fearing that his curious words would really make such a cute little girl cry.
"Big brother, my dad went to another place and hasn't come back for several years. My mother and I don't know where he went..."
After hearing this sentence, Liu Dazhu basically understood it.
In this era, many people go to other places to work, especially in places with very poor living conditions. Once they leave the mountains, they don’t want to come back and suffer. Maybe Xiaoya’s father is one of them. After seeing the beautiful world outside, I don’t even want my wife and children at home.
"Little girl, don't be afraid, brother will take care of you..." Liu Dazhu hugged the little girl, and then walked faster down the mountain.
"Thank you, brother..." The little girl also kissed Liu Dazhu very obediently.
"Xiaoya, can I discuss something with you..." At this time, Liu Dazhu suddenly said.
"What, brother, you said, I will definitely help you if you have something..." The little girl was very sensible and looked at Liu Dazhu like a little adult, with a very sincere attitude.
"Well, this, actually, isn't a big deal. It's just, can that little girl not call me brother..."
"If you don't call me brother, then, what should I call you? Should I call you dad..."
"..."
Liu Dazhu was petrified immediately. This girl dared to say anything. If her father found out, it would be weird if he didn't beat her ass.
"This little girl, what do you think about calling me uncle?"
Because Liu Dazhu felt that it was necessary for him to have the same seniority as Shen Meila, otherwise Xiaoya would always call him brother, while he would call Shen Mei sister-in-law, which would be really confusing.
"Uncle, let me think about it..."
The little girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, then I'll call you uncle, but you have to protect me, and uncle has to protect good children."
"Haha, that's necessary..."
With a "pop" sound, Liu Dazhu kissed her again, and then quickly chased after Shen Mei in front.
Shen Mei had been walking in front. Seeing her daughter and Liu Dazhu being so affectionate, she felt a little happy for no reason. She didn't know why she was like this.
"Dazhu, what were you two mumbling in the back just now?"
Seeing Liu Dazhu and the others following them, Shen Mei asked.
"Oh, this is a secret between me and Xiaoya, I can't tell you..."
"You're not scolding me..."
Shen Mei turned around and turned away from Liu Dazhu, her feet slipped and she suddenly fell to the side.
Liu Dazhu quickly stretched out his hand to hold her, and almost slid with her. Fortunately, he had a better foundation in martial arts, so there was no scene like the three of them falling together and rolling in the mud.
"Sister-in-law Meizi, be careful, it's too difficult to walk on this road. Please hold my hand and walk better..."
Liu Dazhu held her hand and refused to let go, and Shen Mei quickly shook it off.
If someone saw this, I wonder what gossip would spread. Besides, she walked this mountain road every day, and there would be nothing wrong with a person coming and going alone. She had never let a man hold hands while walking. Today, she couldn't let this handsome and evil little man pull her away.
Shen Mei and Xiaoya's home is at the entrance of the village. As soon as they walked into the village, they followed the path next to them and walked a few steps. They saw a small yard built with stones from the mountains. The yard was built with stones picked from the mountains. , there is ventilation and light everywhere, and no lime mortar has been used. It is estimated that it will fall down if pushed with a little force. It is estimated that Shen Mei picked up the stone and pushed it up.
There is only a small exit in the yard and there is no door. When you walk into the yard, you will find two shabby houses. However, they are slightly better than the leaky house in Grandpa Yang's house. At least the roof can prevent rain.
Shen Mei walked ahead, and Liu Dazhu followed Xiaoya into the house behind her.
This is two houses connected together. One is a place for sleeping, and the other is a place for eating and cooking. There is no special kitchen. She usually cooks and eats here. Even Shen Mei takes a bath at night. In this cooking room, I take off my clothes and sit in the tub to take a bath.
The bedroom and the dining and cooking room are connected together. There is a small door in the middle. To enter the sleeping room, you must first pass through the cooking room and then enter the bedroom through the small door. For safety reasons, this In both houses, only the kitchen has a door that can be walked out.
"Dazhu, you sit down for a while, I'll make you tea..."
Shen Mei walked into the room with Liu Dazhu. Her face suddenly turned red. There had been no man in this room for several years. She didn't know why she would bring him into the room today. (To be continued)
