In the afternoon, while waiting for the mung bean soup, Ling Xiaowei concentrated on painting. She also copied the picture of the Sophora japonica tree painted by Shi Mingwei, but it was not as good as Shi Mingwei's painting.
Maybe it was better to enjoy the shade under the tree, but Shi Mingwei and Mingming had fallen asleep on the table. Mingming was drooling from his sleep. Shi Mingwei looked much better when he was sleeping.
From time to time, the wind would blow up the strands of hair on his forehead, revealing his smooth forehead. I have to say that Ming Wei was acting pretty well at this time, but with this kind of character, I really can’t compliment him, he was very domineering, and he also had a bad mouth!
"Dad, I'm going to check out the mung bean soup. Do you want to drink it? I'll bring you a bowl."
"Okay! Be careful not to get burned." Ling's father warned.
Ling Xiaowei nodded and ran back to the hut. The mung beans in the pot had been boiled, and a pot of dark green soup looked very thirst-quenching.
She took the bowl and filled a big bowl for her father. Then she put the remaining mung bean soup in a small pot and sent it to the field.
On a hot day, drinking some mung bean soup can relieve the heat.
First, she sent the soup in the bowl to Ling's father, and then put the soup in the pot to cool in the room. She put the bowl and spoon into the basket first.
After everything was ready, Ling Xiaowei came out again, shook Shi Mingwei who was still sleeping, "Hey, wake up!"
"Xiaowei, Shi Mingwei is still sleeping, what are you doing to wake him up?" Dad said slightly scolding.
"Dad, I can't carry the mung bean soup alone." Ling Xiaowei said, and then quietly pinched Shi Mingwei's arm.
"Well... who pinched me!" Shi Mingwei looked sleepy, blinked and stretched.
It’s so cool to sleep outside!
"Get up and get to work!" Ling Xiaowei pushed him.
"What kind of work are you doing?" Shi Mingwei was still in a state of confusion, he was not completely awake yet.
"Of course I'm delivering mung bean soup to the adults! Come and help." Ling Xiaowei took Shi Mingwei's wrist and walked toward the hut.
This was the first time that Shi Mingwei entered the hut of Ling Xiaowei's house. It was much simpler than the hut of his grandfather's house, but it could be seen that it was newly built. The ground was covered with mud. Thinking of the wooden floor in his own house, Shi Mingwei felt...
A sense of time and space.
"Here! Take these!" Ling Xiaowei said, pointing to the things in a basket.
There is a full pot of mung bean soup in this basket, as well as six bowls and chopsticks.
Shi Mingwei mentioned that it was quite heavy.
"It's so important, I won't mention it!" Shi Mingwei said, looking unhappy.
Ling Xiaowei took out the bowl from the basket and put it in the basket, which she carried on her back.
Now there was only soup left, and it was not that heavy anymore. She looked at Shi Mingwei and said with a smile: "Brother Shi, please help me. It's so heavy, I can't lift it!"
Hehe! Who made him want to be a brother?
Shi Mingwei was stunned and glanced at Ling Xiaowei. He thought it was strange for her to speak like this, but he liked it!
"Okay!" Shi Mingwei deliberately straightened his body and lifted the mung bean soup a little lighter than before. "Look, brother is awesome!" Shi Mingwei did not forget to say something.
Ling Xiaowei nodded heavily, raised her thumb, and praised: "Awesome, awesome, brother is great!"
Shi Mingwei was even happier and felt like he was floating!
The two of them, one behind the other, went out through the back door and headed into the fields.
"Although your home is a bit simple, the scenery in your backyard is nice!" Shi Mingwei couldn't help but praise.
In the city, there are busy cars everywhere, and houses are built one after another. People live in cage-like houses, and they can't see such a vast pastoral scenery.
The longer I stay, the better I find it.
After walking half the distance, Shi Mingwei became tired and kept switching his hands back and forth. He saw Ling Xiaowei carrying the basket and walking briskly, and he was immediately dissatisfied.
"Ling Xiaowei, let's change, I'm exhausted!" Shi Mingwei shouted dissatisfied.
Ling Xiaowei looked back at him, her lips raised slightly, and she was laughing inside. You deserve it, you will be exhausted.
"If I don't change it, this one is so heavy that I can't carry it."
"I can't lift it anymore!" Someone lied, putting down the basket and putting his hands on his hips.
"But you are the brother! How can a brother let his sister do heavy lifting?" Ling Xiaowei pointed to a brother and sister walking on a field path not far ahead, "Look, the brother is carrying his sister on his back!"
When Shi Mingwei took a look, it was really true! He had a look of resentment on his face, and he always felt that something was wrong!
"Hey! Isn't that Qi Lei?" The person Ling Xiaowei pointed at seemed to be Qi Lei's brother and sister.
"Qi Lei!" Ling Xiaowei shouted to the people in front, then trotted forward with the basket on her back.
Shi Mingwei shouted anxiously from behind. He saw Ling Xiaowei running further and further away. He was really heartless, so he left him behind.
Shi Mingwei picked up the basket resignedly and continued walking forward.
Ling Xiaowei caught up with Qi Lei, who was carrying his youngest sister on his back. He was also surprised to see Ling Xiaowei here, but considering that this was Guangming Village, it was normal!
He came today to help his mother harvest wheat for a family in Guangming Village.
"Qi Lei, why are you here!" Ling Xiaowei asked curiously.
The land of their Xiaowei Village is not here.
"My mother helps people in your village harvest wheat, and I came here to help her." Qi Lei said with a faint smile.
"Oh!" Ling Xiaowei suddenly remembered that the family her mother helped was probably her uncle's family. "The family your mother helped was probably my uncle's family. Their family went to town."
"That's right! That's such a coincidence. Your family's land is close to your uncle's home?" Qi Lei suddenly looked forward to it. If they were close together, he could still talk to Ling Xiaowei when he was tired from work.
say.
Thinking of this, he felt happy.
"We're not together, my land is over there!" Ling Xiaowei pointed in the direction.
There was a hint of disappointment on Qi Lei's face.
"Fortunately, it's not far away, hey! You can call your mother later and come over to drink mung bean soup together!" Ling Xiaowei said happily.
Behind him, Shi Mingwei followed. He looked at the two people talking and laughing with a dull expression, then quickly walked in and squeezed in between the two people. He glared at Qi Lei and said dissatisfiedly: "No, no.
I worked hard to bring this up."
Qi Lei saw the tired look on Shi Mingwei's face and said calmly: "If you can't lift it, lift it for me!" As he said that, he steadily lifted the basket from Shi Mingwei's hand.
Although Qi Lei is skinny, he has been doing farm work all year round, so he is quite strong! The basket felt very easy in his hands. He was dragging his sister with one hand and carrying the basket with the other, so he could handle it very easily.
This... was a bit exciting for Shi Mingwei!
Could it be that I am really too weak?
"Hey! This is my basket, you don't need to carry it!" Shi Mingwei stepped forward to grab the basket.
"Qi Lei, my land has arrived, thank you!" Ling Xiaowei thanked Qi Lei, and then took the basket from Qi Lei's hand.
