LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 56 - The big man\\\'s marriage
It can be seen that Liu Xuexu should be more favored at home. Section Chief Hao has been persuading Liu Xuexu to return to Beijing, but after persuading Liu Xuexu, Liu Xuexu is still unmoved, just unwilling to leave…
Section Chief Hao couldn’t do anything. After the soup was full, he took out a hundred yuan and handed it to Bai Zhenggan, “Brother Bai, then Xuexu… I can only ask you, now it’s mid-September, Xuexu will bother you. Until the tenth day of the winter moon, when the time comes, I will trouble Song Zhi to send him to the county seat to take the train, and the hundred yuan will be regarded as the living expenses of Xuexu and Haishan, which will cause trouble for your family!”
Bai Zhengqian waved his hand and asked for no money.
However, Liu Xuexu took the money and put it in Tang Liren’s hands, “Auntie, you keep the money, there are two more people in the family, me and Hai Shan, it’s not enough to cause you trouble, we are still clumsy. I won’t be able to do it either, it’s exhausting the family!”
Tang Liren looked at Song Zhi.
Song Zhi’s jaw head.
Tang Licai said: “Oh, you are so polite… Then I will accept it. If there is anything you want to eat, you can tell my aunt and promise to find a way to fix it for you, okay?”
“Thank you, Auntie!” Liu Xuexu said.
Then he pulled Guan Haishan’s sleeve again and whispered, “Thank you!”
Guan Haishan let out an “ah” and came back to her senses, “Thank you!”
After lunch, Section Chief Hao left in a hurry.
Tao Tao packed up and prepared to go to the library.
Bai Zhenggan stopped her, “Peach, you have to get ready… In a few days, other villages will send people to our village to learn the scriptures. The most important thing is that the library will offer courses on crop pest control and spiritual civilization suggestions… You’d better come up with a teaching plan based on these two points and teach them how to do it!”
Tao Tao smiled, “Is it advanced?”
Of course Bai Zhengqian knew what his daughter was talking about, but now that there are outsiders at home, he didn’t say much, just laughed and scolded: “Why don’t you go quickly?”
Tao Tao ran out with a smile.
Tang Liren stopped her again, “Peach wait a minute! You should deliver food to your sixth wife first… Today, thanks to Xu Xue and Haishan, our family’s food is good, your sixth wife fell a few days ago. , I’ve been in bed for a few days… You bring something delicious to her, so that she can have an appetizer, eat well and get better faster!”
Hearing this, Taotao ran back again, took a package of meals that Tang Liren had wrapped in tung leaves, and ran out again.
Liu Xuexu quickly ran out, “Peach! Wait for me…”
Song Zhi was stunned.
But Liu Xuexu had already run away without a shadow!
Song zhi was so angry that he clenched his fists in both hands, and could not wait to grab Liu Xuexu by the neck and drag him back!
In fact, he wanted to do the same—
Guan Haishan looked at Song Zhi steadily and asked, “Brother, you left without saying a word… Don’t you want to explain something to me?”
Song Zhi took a look at Guan Haishan – the twenty-two-year-old girl had a shaved head and her eyebrows stood upright, and she looked a bit fierce.
He got off the kang without a word, put on his shoes and left.
Guan Haishan: …
Even she was not convinced, and ran out after Song Zhi.
Bai Zhenggan and Tang Liren followed their backs.
Bai Zhenggan, “Why are Song zhi’s younger siblings like this? Weird!”
Tang Liren, “Oh, Song Zhi explained to me that people who engage in art are like this…”
Bai Zhenggan, “But it’s uncomfortable to look at, especially Xuexu’s child, who is no different from a girl. If I get too close to our Taotao, I’m still a little uncomfortable.”
Tang Liren, “Hey, when you say that, I feel a drum in my heart. I’ll talk to Song Zhi later, and let him take good care of Xuexu!”
Bai Zhenggan, “And Guan Haishan, you said that she wandered in Song County for more than a month in order to find Song zhi… Is she interested in Song zhi?”
Tang Liren, “That must be interesting! If I were Song Zhi, I would have run away, Haishan and Taotao, I would definitely choose our Taotao! You said that a good girl shaved her head, what does she mean? What? That must be because she doesn’t like Song Zhi, if she likes Song Zhi, then she shouldn’t become a nun!”
Bai Zhengqian, “Hey, they are for art! They are not monks and nuns!”
Tang Liren, “Then why do you have to shave her head for the sake of art? Art offends her hair?”
Bai Zhengqian: …
Just, he is a rural old man, and he does not understand art.
“Okay, what do you do? I have to go to the village committee and write down Yan Naqian’s materials.” Bai Zhenggan said.
Tang Liren, “Can she die this time?”
Bai Zhenggan said, “How do I know that I am a commoner? What I have to do now is to quickly get the 250 yuan she owes our village before she is sentenced!”
Tang Liren understood, “Hmph, the crime of forging official documents of the state is not light! Let’s see how many years I can be sentenced to!”
On the other side, Tao Tao and Liu Xuexu went out together.
Liu Xuexu, “Tao Tao, is the sixth lady a relative of yours?”
“no!”
After thinking about it, Taotao changed her words again, “Yes! In our village… almost half of the villagers in the village are relatives or clan relatives. However, the sixth wife is an orphan, her husband died before liberation, and her son is a volunteer army. If I can come back, there is a daughter who married but also died, only the granddaughter will come to see her every now and then.”
Liu Xuexu understood, “Your family are all good people.”
Taotao, “Everyone in our village is like this. Whoever can eat something good will definitely send some to the orphans in the clan… Oh, what a beautiful bowl of flowers!”
Colorful wildflowers bloom in the bushes beside the mountain road.
Each flower is really like a small bowl, with a single petal, and the colors are red, white, and yellow. In this autumn when everything is depressed, it looks so fresh and vigorous.
Taotao carefully picked a large bunch of flowers, and also picked some beautiful leaves, surrounded by the bouquet, and wrapped the bottom of the bouquet with tung leaves, and then continued to go to the sixth wife’s house.
Liu Xuexu followed Tao Tao step by step.
After a while, he came to the sixth wife’s house, and Tao Tao shouted, “Mother! I’m Tao Tao… I’m here to bring you food!” She pushed open the door and entered.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that the small yard was full of fallen leaves, because the owner was sick and had not been cleaned for a long time.
Tao Tao ran into the house and saw the sixth woman half sitting on the bed, holding a packet of tung leaf rice and eating.
The old man smiled, “Is Taotao here?”
Tao Tao stepped forward and looked at the meal that the sixth lady was eating.
– The main food is rice mixed with beans, and the rice is served with pickled vegetables and stir-fried Chinese cabbage.
At first glance, it is a meal for the elderly cooked by the women in the village on duty.
“Woman, can you wait and eat later?” Taotao stepped forward, took away the Tong Ye rice held by the old woman, put it on the table beside her, and ran out.
She took the big broom that was placed beside the courtyard wall, and with a few swipes, she swept aside all the fallen leaves in the courtyard, packed it with a dustpan, and placed it outside the courtyard gate.
Seeing the dust in the yard that had just been cleaned, she went to the kitchen to pick up some water and sprinkled it in the yard.
Liu Xuexu stood stupidly in the courtyard, looking at this dilapidated and depressing courtyard, it suddenly became neat and tidy.
Tao Tao went to bring the reclining chair and bench over, put them under the scorpion tree in the yard, and then turned to greet Liu Xue Xu, “Xue Xu, the old lady hurt her foot, you and I go into the house and put the old lady in the house. Help me out, okay?”
Liu Xuexu nodded, followed Tao Tao into the room together, helped the sixth lady off the bed in the room, carried the old man to the clean yard, and let her sit on the reclining chair.
“Oops,” Madam Liu sighed, “It turns out that the sun is so good today!”
Tao Tao smiled and put the half-pack of tong rice that the sixth lady was eating and the tong leaf rice she brought on the bench beside the reclining chair, poured another glass of water, put it on, and said to the old man: ” Madam, you have dinner, shall I go in and clean up the house for you?”
The old man smiled and nodded.
Taotao called Liu Xuexu, “Xuexu, go to the kitchen, put a basin of water in a wooden basin, then take a rag and bring it to the wife’s house.”
She went into the grandmother’s house to clean up.
Liu Xuexu also turned around and ran to the kitchen, and ran out after a while, “Tao Tao, I can’t find a rag!”
“The rag usually hangs behind the door!”
By the time Liu Xuexu trembled with a half-bowl of water, she came to the sixth lady’s room, Tao Tao had already tidy up the house.
– The window is open, the quilts and pillows on the bed have all been carried to the yard to be sun-dried, and the big bunch of wild flowers that Taotao has just picked are placed under the window.
Seeing Liu Xuexu coming in, Taotao said “thank you” to him, then took the wet handkerchief and started to wipe the furniture in the room.
In fact, the smell in the house is not very good.
The scrubbed furniture revealed icy cold water vapor, and then was illuminated by the bright sunlight coming in from the window… Those indescribable smells slowly dissipated, and the rich aroma of wild flowers filled the house, making people feel inexplicably happy. .
Liu Xuexu leaned against the door, watching the old and decaying house, which suddenly became alive again.
Tao Tao ran out again.
The sixth woman sat on the reclining chair and ate the tongyebao rice brought by Taotao, smiling.
Taotao, “Wife, I’ll take some shovels and take them away!”
Madam Liu, “Take it! Take as much as you want!”
Taotao called Liu Xuexu again, “Xuexu, come and help!”
The voice just fell-
Someone pushed the door in.
It is Song Zhi.
He greeted the sixth wife, “Hello, wife!”
Followed by a bulging bald Guan Haishan.
The sixth lady smiled and said, “Song Zhiqing is here?” Then she looked at Guan Haishan curiously.
When Taotao saw Song zhi, she quickly called him, “Song zhi! Let’s fight a little bit!”
Song Zhi nodded, then went to find a small basket, found a long bamboo, and found a sickle, and tied the sickle to the long bamboo; Taotao tied an apron around his waist, and lifted the apron with his hands end.
Getting ready, the two looked at each other with a tacit understanding.
Song Zhi picked up the long bamboo pole and went to cut the bright red scorpion on the tall scorpion tree.
A fat, fiery shovel descended from the sky—
Tao Tao quickly stepped forward and covered it with an apron!
“Xuexu, put the shovel in the small basket.” Taotao instructed him.
Liu Xuexu picked up the shovel from Tao Tao’s apron pocket and put it in the small basket.
In this way, Song Zhi cut the scorpion, Tao Tao caught it, and Liu Xuexu collected the scorpion… After a while, the three of them worked together to collect two small baskets of scorpions.
Tao Tao said enough, the others will be collected next time, and then arranged, “Let’s take a basket and leave a basket for the mother-in-law. We will take the soft, ready-to-eat ones, and leave the half-ripe ones to the mother-in-law.”
Guan Haishan sneered, “This is a scorpion tree in someone’s yard! You have the face to pick someone else’s scorpion, and even take away the ripe scorpion, leaving it for others who can’t eat raw scorpions at all?”
Tao Tao was greatly surprised, and couldn’t help but look at Song Zhi.
Song Zhi, “Don’t pay attention to her.”
Tao Tao looked at the Sixth Wife again—the old man had already finished his meal, two meals, and was now lying on the reclining chair, squinting and taking a nap.
Tao Tao did not speak, for fear of waking up the old lady.
Liu Xuexu has already divided up the pits.
The crowd quickly divided two baskets, one that was fully cooked and the other that was slightly jerky.
Tao Tao put the basket of raw scorpions beside the grandmother’s reclining chair, and placed three full-ripe big red scorpions on top. Then she struggled to hold the basket of fully-ripened scorpions, and said to everyone in a low voice: “Let’s not quarrel with the wife and take a nap, and let’s move lightly.”
Song Zhi reached out and grabbed the basket of scorpions that Tao Tao was hugging…
Liu Xuexu also wanted to help Taotao, but she was a step too late and was left empty.
Everyone gently left the yard of the sixth lady.
After walking far, Taotao said to Guan Haishan: “The sixth lady is only one person, she can’t eat too many scorpions. At most two or three a day, the remaining raw scorpions will slowly ripen in a few days. Isn’t she able to eat a few a day?”
Guan Haishan rolled her eyes at Taotao and reached out to take a shovel.
Taotao, “You can’t eat the scorpion of the sixth woman for nothing!”
When Guan Haishan heard it, she threw the scorpion into the grass beside her and left angrily.
After running two steps, she turned back and called Song zhi, “Brother! Come here!”
As if she didn’t hear it, Song Zhi said to Taotao, “Don’t cook Guan Haishan’s meal tonight, unless she picks up that scorpion and eats it, and then does one more thing for the sixth lady.”
Tao Tao smiled and nodded.
The two left.
Liu Xuexu looked at Guan Haishan and followed Tao Tao.
Guan Haishan was stunned.
She was angry and felt that Song Zhi should be more intimate with her. Thinking that he was in this remote small mountain village where birds don’t **** on the first day, Song rank was so relieved, and he didn’t care about her? ignore her?
After thinking and thinking, Guan Haishan followed them aggrievedly.
When Taotao arrived at the library, the entrance of the library was already full of villagers in twos and threes.
Seeing her and Song Zhi coming, the villagers joked—
“Peach, you are late today!”
“Oh, what a beautiful scorpion, Taotao, have you gone to the sixth wife’s house?”
“Oh, I’m not full for lunch, can Taotao give a scorpion to eat?”
“Sister Tao Tao, what are we learning today?”
Taotao asked everyone to share the food, and said: “Hey, this scorpion was beaten from the yard of the sixth wife’s house, and now everyone eats it… Short hands and short mouths! Everyone has eaten scorpions today. Everyone, go and see the Sixth Wife!”
“I want it! Anyway, it’s fine these few days. I’ll go over after a while and help the sixth lady wash her hair!”
“When I go to pick up firewood, I will also help the sixth lady to pick up some!”
“Let me help the sixth wife carry water!”
“I also help Liu carry too much water. We have to arrange a shift. Today you go to carry water, tomorrow it’s my turn!”
“Count me in!”
“I live close to Mrs. Six, then I’ll sweep the yard for Mrs. Six!”
Taotao added: “I just moved my great-grandmother to the yard to take a nap in the sun. Which aunt and sister-in-law will be free, go back and move her!”
Someone responded immediately.
So Taotao took out the key and opened the door of the library. She took out the small blackboard, chalk and the book she was going to teach today.
Then she started lecturing.
The library will open two classes at noon every day, one class on literacy. The purpose is to teach everyone to recognize twenty new words, and then spot-check and review what they have learned before; and then preview what they will learn tomorrow. One is an agricultural knowledge class. Today, it is an ecological cycle class in the duck pen.
Slowly, more and more people came to class…
There are at least forty or fifty people!
Tao Tao was originally a lively and simple person, and the way of teaching is very simple and easy to understand. The villagers who listened to the class were very serious, holding small dead branches on the ground to practice…
Liu Xuexu stood aside, looking at Tao Tao obsessively.
– What kind of little fairy did he meet? Not to mention being beautiful, she has such a kind heart. Why are there such perfect people in the world? Why!
Guan Haishan gritted her teeth and thought: So what Bai Taotao said was true? You can’t eat the scorpion of the sixth woman for nothing. If you eat the scorpion of the old woman, you have to work for the old woman?
She was vaguely flustered, hesitating whether to go back and pick up the broken shovel…
But picking up scorpions is a small matter, and she doesn’t want to help the old woman work! The yard was old and dirty, she didn’t want to go in at all!
so-
Song zhi is her brother, so it is impossible not to give her food.
Thinking of this, Guan Haishan regained her confidence.
She also stared at Bai Taotao in class—
However, Bai Taotao teaches some very simple knowledge, but her style is very lively and cute, which makes people fall into it without knowing it…
It wasn’t until the end of a character recognition class that Guan Haishan realized that she had been standing for an entire hour?
Feet are numb.
Turning his head again, Song Zhi was sitting on the side and looked at Bai Taotao with a smile, while Liu Xuexu also leaned against a tree and looked at Bai Taotao with a smirk…
very angry.
Guan Haishan was so angry that she stepped forward and said to Song zhi, “Brother, come here!” After speaking, she took Song zhi’s hand.
“Let go.” Song Zhi’s expression turned cold.
Guan Haishan didn’t let it go, “How did you become like this? Did I offend you? You don’t care about your childhood…our relationship?”
“Let go.” Song Zhi warned her again.
Guan Haishan did not relax, and pouted at him.
Song zhi slapped Guan Haishan’s back with a “smack” backhand.
Guan Haishan was stunned.
– A burning pain came from the back of the hand, and when I looked again, the back of the hand was red and swollen.
Song Zhi hit her?
Guan Haishan looked shocked, “Brother, you…”
Song Zhi said coldly: “You asked me three questions in total, right? Then you can hear it clearly, I will only say it once.”
“First, you ask me, how did I become like this? Guan Haishan, I don’t know what I have become in your eyes. But I am living very well now. I live in a very friendly family. , to experience a happiness that I have never felt, and it makes me very happy. In contrast, for the past twenty-four years of my life, I have been stuck in the quagmire and miserable every day.”
After a pause, Song Zhi asked Guan Haishan, “Your question is because you think I should be as unhappy as before? Do you want me to return to my original lifeless state?”
Guan Haishan shook her head desperately, “No, no!”
Song zhi continued: “The second question you asked me – did you offend me? Yes, you offended me. Because you shouldn’t come to me, you shouldn’t disturb the peace and happiness that I finally got. .I don’t want your appearance to make the girl I like misunderstand!”
Guan Haishan stared at him dazedly, shaking her head desperately, “The girl you like… You, do you really like someone else?”
Song Zhi continued: “Third, why don’t you ask me why I didn’t think about our relationship when we were young? Guan Haishan, what kind of relationship did we have when we were young? Or, your so-called relationship is pulling me again and again. To die? Is it because every time I struggled to survive, I became the love that you see incessantly?”
Guan Haishan’s eyes filled with tears, “Brother! You are my salvation…”
“Redemption?” Song zhi chuckled, “Am I your redemption?”
Song Zhi asked back, “But have you ever thought that the me who was dragged into **** by you also needs to be redeemed?”
Guan Haishan was stunned.
Song Zhi didn’t care about Guan Haishan’s emotions at all, and said word by word: “Kuan Haishan, it was Taotao who picked me up from hell… She let me go back to the world, took me, and tasted the best family and friendship in the world, look. To the most beautiful scenery, to taste the best food, I work with her every day for hope… Most importantly, she makes me have beautiful dreams for the future, and I want to work hard with her to pursue my dreams .”
“I don’t want to go back to the past, I like the present and want to…”
After a pause, Song Zhi lowered his voice, “I like Bai Taotao, and I want to marry her. However, she and her family have not accepted me yet, so I have to work hard to get her parents’ approval. I, also let her… accept my pursuit.”
It was the first time that Song Zhi had spoken out the words that he had hidden in the deepest part of his heart in front of outsiders, and his face could not help turning a little red.
Guan Haishan’s face turned pale for a moment, “Brother, do you like Bai Taotao? What about me?”
Song Zhi gave her a cold look, “I also want to know, I like Bai Taotao, what’s your business?”
Guan Haishan said with tears: “I like you!”
“So I have to like you?” Song Zhi asked rhetorically.
Guan Haishan was speechless.
After a while, she said again, “Song zhi, are you such an ungrateful person? You forgot how my mother raised you?”
Song Zhi looked at Guan Haishan steadily and asked, “Then according to you, what should I do?”
Guan Haishan involuntarily looked at Bai Taotao.
– Bai Taotao is teaching the villagers a second lesson. She was born beautiful and cute. Although she wore inconspicuous old clothes and dressed in ordinary clothes, she had an indescribable…elegance.
Now, she clearly heard Song Zhi say that he likes Bai Taotao?
A woman would be jealous of Bai Taotao’s beauty, she Guan Haishan can’t compare to a beauty like Bai Taotao at all! How could she compete with Bai Taotao?
After hesitating for a while, Guan Haishan looked at Song Zhi again—he had a slim body and long legs, a handsome face, and a personality… he was rather silent and boring, but she grew up with him since she was a child, and she had long been used to having a person who would always stay in such obscurity. Where she can reach…
Guan Haishan summoned her courage and said, “I, I hope you can come with me, and then… we will form a small family and let my mother’s spirit in heaven rest in peace.”
“Your mother’s spirit in the sky has long since rested.” Song Zhi said coldly.
Guan Haishan was stunned, and said angrily, “Song zhi, what do you mean? My mother’s kindness for raising you…”
Song Zhi, “I didn’t blaspheme your mother’s kindness for raising me, I just wanted to ask, how many times did your mother raise me?”
“you-“
Song Zhi said, “Why don’t you think about it, why did I come to this small mountain village?”
Guan Haishan was stunned.
Song Zhi, “It’s because your brother Guan Hailong has already given me favors before you.”
Guan Haishan’s face was instantly pale, “You mean…”
“Fang Shenghao stayed in the city, but your brother wants to go to the countryside. Your brother thought it was your father’s partiality, and he was resentful. So he went to me and asked me to exchange stay with me because of your mother’s kindness in raising me. I agree to the city quota.” Song Zhi said coldly, “…Guan Haishan, I have already reported your mother’s kindness of raising.”
“No!!” Guan Haishan screamed, “My brother can’t be that kind of person!”
Her scream made everyone in the class, including Bai Taotao, stop and looked at her and Song Zhi curiously.
Song Zhi waved at Taotao, meaning that you continue to class.
He stood up, took a few steps back, away from the crowd, but ensured that he and Guan Haishan were still within Taotao’s line of sight.
Guan Haishan immediately followed and yelled at Song Zhi, “Impossible! My brother… It’s absolutely impossible! He won’t be so mean!”
Song Zhi sneered, “How noble are you?”
Guan Haishan: …
—Yes, how noble is she? Her brother was holding grace and asked Song zhi to give up his quota in the city; why was she not holding grace and wanted Song zhi to marry her?
Guan Haishan only felt an inexplicable burning on her face.
Song Zhi, “Do you know why your brother told you my address?”
“Why?” Guan Haishan’s mind was very confused now.
Song zhi, “Because my teacher’s project was also shut down, he still faces the dilemma of going to the countryside to cut the queue. If I guessed correctly, he will tell you my address out of revenge on me. When he wanted to exchange places with me, he said that he knew that I didn’t like your entanglement, so he would try to stop you as much as possible.”
Guan Haishan was dumbfounded.
– Really? Her love for Song rank, in Song rank’s view, is an extremely painful entanglement? Even her own brother saw it? ? ?
Song Zhi, “By the way, has your brother gone to the countryside?”
It took a long time for Guan Haishan to say: “No, he fought with Fang Shenghao and injured his leg… The doctor said that he will never get better, and he will be a lame person all his life. Later, Fang Shenghao changed with him. He went to work in Fang Shenghao’s unit, and Fang Shenghao went down went to the village.”
Song Zhi was a little surprised.
Guan Haishan closed her eyes.
Still unwilling to give up, she asked Song zhi resentfully, “Brother, I will never mention my mother’s kindness for your upbringing again… But you really don’t have any feelings for me at all?”
“no.”
“I don’t believe it!” Guan Haishan yelled.
Song Zhi, “Well, let me tell the truth… My feelings for you are that I want to stay away from you and never see you. So I studied hard since I was a child, just to get admitted to a boarding school. Yes, I don’t want to go to your house at all, because I know that as soon as I go to your house, you want to drag me to death…”
“Guan Haishan, I really… hate you.” Song Zhi said.
Guan Haishan collapsed, “Song zhi, you lied!”
Song zhi, “I’m telling the truth. It’s up to you whether you listen to me or not. I hope you can leave here soon, so that I can be peaceful and quiet.”
After speaking, he returned to the vicinity where Tao Tao started class.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Liu Xuexu flowing with laziness and staring at Tao Tao obsessively, and Song Zhi felt even more upset.
At this time, Taotao had already finished her class for everyone.
The villagers dispersed in twos and threes, while Taotao carried a small backpack on her back and murmured with Zhou Xiaoni, as if she wanted to go up the mountain.
Song Zhi greeted him, “Are you going up the mountain?”
Tao Tao nodded, “Little Ni’er and I are going to pick up wild chestnuts, come back!”
Song Zhi, “I’ll go too.”
Taotao thought about it and felt that he was very strong, so it would be better to pick up more and come back, so she said, “Let’s go with that, why don’t you go home and pick up an empty basket to see what else is good, Get some more back.”
Liu Xuexu rushed over, “Tao Tao! I’ll go too, you can get me a backpack!”
Tao Tao said generously: “Okay!”
A group of people walked in the direction of Tao Tao’s house.
Guan Haishan reluctantly followed behind.
As expected, Song Zhi went back and picked out a pair of empty baskets, and took two more baskets. Liu Xuexu asked for one to carry on his back, and then took the other one for Guan Haishan to carry.
Guan Haishan didn’t want to, she walked two steps faster, Liu Xuexu chased after her.
Song zhi took the opportunity to say to Taotao, “Look, they are a perfect match!”
[email protected][emailprotected]: ? ? ?
– Just now you and Guan Haishan quarreled in front of so many people, she cried like that… It’s obvious that she likes you!
Song Zhi could understand Tao Tao’s disapproving eyes.
But he had to say this, and he had to do it, this was the only way for him to save himself-now that he had no comrades, he couldn’t make the three into a tiger, so he had to put some eye drops in front of Taotao. As long as he talks too much, it will more or less affect Tao Tao’s views on Guan Haishan and Liu Xuexu.
“Guan Haishan and Liu Xuexu should get better, otherwise, Guan Haishan is so self-willed and ran out of Kyoto alone, will Liu Xuexu follow her? And the two have been wandering outside for more than a month… What do you think?” Song Zhi said.
Tao Tao thought about it, yes!
Song Zhi continued to cheer, “When they lived in the hostel, they probably lived in the same room!”
Taotao immediately looked at Song zhi with burning eyes – that time in the city, she also slept with Song zhi in the same room, but she just couldn’t sleep with him!
“Even if you sleep in a room, it doesn’t mean anything!” Tao Tao said.
Song Zhi: …
— So why am I shooting myself in the foot!
While talking, Taotao and Xiaoni walked to the wild chestnut forest. There were already several villagers there, and it seemed that their harvest was quite rich.
After greeting each other, Taotao and Xiaoni demonstrated how to pick up chestnuts – chestnuts have thorns on their shells, so they can’t be grabbed with their hands. Therefore, it is necessary to pick up dead branches, and skillfully pick the hairy chestnuts and let them fly into the back basket or basket by themselves.
Liu Xuexu was very excited, and took the dead branches and slapped them—
By the time he had had enough, Tao Tao, Xiao Ni’er and Song Zhi had already packed the two big baskets and the back basket!
Only then did Liu Xuexu hurriedly put seven or eight chestnuts in his own backpack, and then added a few more to Guan Haishan’s backpack…
Song zhi whispered in Taotao’s ear, “Look! How good they are!”
Tao Tao laughed and laughed.
– She didn’t expect that Song rank’s real intention was to brainwash her, she just felt that Song rank was now very urgently trying to clear his relationship with Guan Haishan.
Seeing that the baskets and back baskets were about to be filled, Taotao and Xiaoni said they were going back.
As a result, halfway through, Taotao found a few hawthorn trees! The tree is full of red and bright fruits, and the air is filled with the sweet and sour fruity fragrance, so tempting!
So the crowd stopped to pick hawthorn again.
It was the first time that Liu Xuexu had eaten the fruit that was picked directly from the tree. He picked one and ate it, so sour that he almost lost his teeth! He narrowed his eyes, gnawed his teeth, and after a while of soreness, he finally recovered.
But seeing Guan Haishan’s gloomy appearance, Liu Xuexu rolled her eyes, picked another one, and sent it directly to Guan Haishan’s mouth, “Haishan, this is so sweet, eat it!”
The fruit was just beside his mouth, Guan Haishan opened his mouth to eat it, and was soured for half his life!
She couldn’t get angry, she raised her palm to chase Liu Xuexu, and Liu Xuexu ran away with a strange smile.
Song Zhi took the time to say to Tao Tao, “Look, how good they are! They are a natural couple!”
As soon as the voice fell—
Running around the ground, Liu Xuexu and Guan Haishan alarmed a cauliflower snake in the grass, the snake twisted and fled with a “whoosh” sound…
Liu Xuexu and Guan Haishan were terrified, hugged each other and screamed!
Song Zhi sighed again, “They are really in love!”
Bai Taotao laughed “porch”.
Liu Xuexu and Guan Haishan hurried over.
Liu Xuexu, “Peach has a snake! It scares people to death!”
Tao Tao, “Actually, you scared it, now, didn’t it run away?”
Guan Haishan also came to Song Zhi with tears in her eyes, “Brother, there are snakes, so scary!”
Song zhi gave a faint “um”, “…I’m afraid too.” But it didn’t look like he was so afraid, instead, there was an indescribable sense of alienation.
Guan Haishan was stunned for a moment, but before the fear dissipated, an indescribable loss floated in her heart again.
Liu Xuexu entangled Taotao and asked how many kinds of snakes there are on the mountain, how to eat the chestnut, how to eat the hawthorn…
For a while, Taotao and Xiaoni picked a lot of hawthorn, and they all went down the mountain together.
Xiaoni said goodbye and went home, and Taotao and Song zhi also went home.
Guan Haishan walked listlessly behind, seeing the elegant Song zhi carrying a burden in front, her heart was sour and blocked, and it was very uncomfortable.
When she got home, Xing Xing was overjoyed to see her sister and Song zhi brought back so many chestnuts and hawthorn! She hurriedly dumped all the mountain goods on the high ground in the yard, and asked the red bean and soybean to pick up the hawthorn, while she took the tongs and took out all the chestnuts in the shell one by one…
The two dogs sent by Uncle Tang, one named Huzi and the other named Leopard, came up curiously to sniff in the east and sniff in the west.
Liu Xuexu also asked, “Is this chestnut shell going to be thrown out? I can help!”
Xing Xing, “If you don’t throw it away, just put these chestnut shells here to dry. This stuff contains oil, so it’s best to start a fire!”
Liu Xuexu suddenly realized.
Xing Xing collected the chestnuts, packed them in a small sack, measured them again, and said with satisfaction, “Not bad, at least ten pounds! Fourth sister, would you like to make a braised pork belly with chestnuts tonight?”
Taotao, “Okay, let’s do it, can you do it alone? I want to take advantage of the freshness of these hawthorns and make hawthorn cakes.”
Xing Xing licked her lips, “I’m fine! Then let’s do things separately!”
The two sisters are busy.
Tao Tao first cleaned the hawthorn fruit, then used a knife to cut the pulp in half, and then sent the red bean to take a tin spoon to dig out the core inside, and the pulp was used for later use. Then I found a small charcoal stove, made a fire, set up a pot, poured water, put the pitted pulp and brown sugar into the pot, boiled it until it boiled, and then turned to a small fire and simmered slowly.
Finally, she took out the bowl and sat beside the small charcoal stove. From time to time, she took out the pulp from the pot with a spoon, poured it into the bowl, pressed the pulp into mud with a small round wooden pestle, and poured it back into the small pot.
At the same time, she explained that the red beans should be stirred constantly in the pot with a small spoon to prevent the bottom from sticking.
This was repeated several times, and after half an hour, all the pulp in the pot had turned into a slurry… The air was filled with the fragrance of brown sugar mixed with hawthorn, which was mouth-watering.
Taotao asked Soybean to bring a clean chopstick and stir it in a small pot
