The mountain road is not too steep.
The brother and sister helped each other down the mountain.
"You are not allowed to go up the mountain alone in the future." Sanfu warned his sister, who shook her round head and looked very happy: "Otherwise, if you fall into a pit, no one will pull you up."
"I know, brother is so verbose."
Lin Xiangrong made a naughty face at the third rich man, grabbed his arm and kept acting coquettishly, making the third rich man helplessly shake his head.
"It's so cold."
The sun sets over the west mountain, the sky is getting late, and the Xuxu breeze blows by, bringing with it a sense of air-conditioning.
The two brothers and sisters were fighting all the way, and they were caught off guard and trembled in the wind.
"I want you to wear less clothes." Sanfu took off his coat and put it on his sister: "If you are sick, you will be scolded by your mother again."
"I thought I would be able to go back soon."
As a result, I didn't expect that it would drag on for a long time with twists and turns.
Lin Xiangrong stuck out her tongue and was patted on the head by Sanfu. She shrank her neck and grabbed her coat with her hands to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
They went further and further into remoteness.
"This way...it's a bit out of the way. Are you sure this road can lead to your home?"
Seeing that the three rich people were gradually being taken to a remote place, Lin Xiangrong looked around curiously.
She's never been here.
This place is too remote and sparsely populated. Children in the village will not come here to play.
"can."
The third rich man nodded affirmatively: "The big rich man and the second rich man brought me here to play."
Just here to fight.
The big rich and the second rich together couldn't beat him alone.
"Oh." Lin Xiangrong nodded, holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, and followed San Fu with great trust.
After twisting and turning for a while, when they were about to walk out of a remote place, the two saw the door of a courtyard that seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time.
The overgrown weeds in the yard were cleared away, and a few pieces of clothing were hung on the clothes-drying rope.
Smoke rises from the kitchen, the sound of wood chopping can be heard in the courtyard, and a few occasional conversations make the atmosphere of life in the courtyard more intense.
"what?"
Are they residents who moved from town? Lin Xiangrong frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.
Could it be that Liu Meng was the man who had always been hot-faced and cold-butt, whom he had not chased since she was a child, and who had rejected her countless times? She remembered that this person ended up disappearing.
However, a few years later, when the male protagonist came to Xingjia Village and Liu Meng fell in love with him at first sight, she still seemed to be chasing after him with a warm face and a cold butt.
Riding a donkey to find a horse?
Lin Xiangrong bared his teeth and couldn't help but sigh: "Awesome."
"What's great?"
Hearing this, the third rich man tugged Lin Xiangrong's hand and said, "What are you muttering about? We are going home soon. It will be dark soon."
"Oh okay, I know."
You will indeed be scolded if you go back late.
Lin Xiangrong nodded and was led back by San Fu.
She couldn't help but look back, only to find a boy who was taller than the three rich people appearing in front of the open door.
The night is blurry, and the last ray of sunlight disappears.
The face of the boy who seemed to be looking at the two people was blurred, and it could only be noticed that he had been staring at their Xiangrong was slightly startled, then stood on tiptoe and waved to him, trying to leave a good impression.
The boy ignored the gesture and ruthlessly returned to the courtyard. After closing the door, he walked into the courtyard and continued to chop wood.
"Lu Xiao, is there someone outside the door?"
A tall, delicate woman walked out of the house. There was sadness between her brows, and her eyes were lifeless. Only when her eyes fell on her son would they fluctuate a little, making her look less lifeless.
"It's two kids passing by."
Lu Xiao replied lightly, lowered his head and swung the ax to chop firewood, and soon finished chopping the few firewood. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at Ruan Qing who was crying at the moon, and persuaded: "Mom, you go back to the house, I We'll sweep the room once and you can rest early."
"Axiao, if it weren't for Mom's fault, Xiao Yuan wouldn't have died." Ruan Qing said with self-pity: "If Mom hadn't failed to live up to her expectations, we wouldn't have been kicked out.
"mom."
Lu Xiao threw the ax aside and helped Ruan Qing return to the house to rest. He said seriously: "I will take good care of you. Don't think about dad. He doesn't love us at all."
Otherwise, why would the man kick them out? Ruan Qing kept crying and just retorted mechanically: "It's impossible."
Why is it impossible?
Lu Xiao was pushed back by a word and was speechless for a moment. He racked his brains to comfort him for a while, but Ruan Qing's head hurt from crying. She kept mumbling over and over again, "He must love me, it must be me who did it." 'It's not good'.
He could only say: "Yes, Dad loves us."
After hearing this, Ruan Qing smiled happily and urged Lu Xiao to go back to sleep.
Go back to the room.
There was a damp smell in the dark and narrow room, and there were always tiny sounds in the room, which seemed to be creatures like cockroaches and mice. Lu Xiao shrank into the quilt and gradually clenched his hands tightly.
the other side.
"Oh, I'm back." Wang Cuilan went to the door and waited for a while before seeing the two children who came back together. She breathed a sigh of relief and dragged them over. After seeing that they were safe, she followed her. I muttered from behind: "Don't come back so late next time."
"Milk, look at the good things I brought back." Lin Xiangrong held her arm and acted coquettishly, pulling Wang Cuilan to the courtyard, mysteriously opening her coat, revealing a complete ginseng inside.
"My third brother and I pulled it out from the mountain. Because we were looking for ginseng, we fell into a pit and it hurt all over our bodies." Lin Xiangrong stood up on tiptoes, nuzzled into Wang Cuilan's arms, and pouted. , with bulging cheeks, just like a little squirrel.
"What?"
When she heard that Lin Xiangrong had fallen, Wang Cuilan was shocked. She quickly pressed her baby granddaughter's shoulders and spun her around. Then she lifted up her shirt and touched her round belly. She held her two little hands and checked again and again. He was relieved when he saw that there were no bruises on his body, "It wasn't broken, was it?"
"It's okay, the pit is not deep at all." Lin Xiangrong smiled and ran into the house holding her coat and ginseng: "Dad! Mom! Look what good things I brought back."
[Hehehe, it’s a super big ginseng. If you sell it, your family won’t have to worry about running out of money to buy it. 】
The two people who heard the sound looked up.
Zhou Zhaodi covered her mouth and chuckled: "Let me guess."
"Is it seaweed fished from the river, or eel picked up in the wild?"
"None of them!" Lin Xiangrong stared at her with bright eyes, a mysterious look on his face: "Guess again, it's a good thing."
[Guess, guess, it’s super, super good ginseng! 】
Zhou Zhaodi, who had already heard the answer, rolled her eyes: "Ah, I understand, it's ginseng, right?"
"That's amazing!" Lin Xiangrong's eyes lit up: "How did mom guess that?"
Zhou Zhaodi smiled helplessly and tapped her precious girl's eyebrows: "Silly girl."
Of course you told us.
But she didn't say anything, she just urged her daughter to wash her hands and eat.
"Oh." Hanging his head like a lost puppy, Lin Xiangrong walked towards the water basin languidly: "Mom, ask my dad to sell ginseng tomorrow, so that we don't have to go hungry after the food is finished at home."
"Okay, little clever guy."
