The weather gradually turned cooler, and Liu Xia asked Lin Xi to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables together. Two girls carried baskets on their backs and walked on the sheep intestine trail in the mountains. The mountain breeze blew in the distance, picking up Lin Xi's black hair, Liu Xia looked at Lin Xi's hair, and said enviously: "How did you raise this hair, it is black and bright." Look at mine, it's long and it's forked. How could Lin Xi know, so he had to say: "It should be genetic, my family's hair is very good." "Lin Xi's appearance can only be regarded as delicate, but in the educated youth point, her appearance is not bad. However, she doesn't talk much with male intellectuals, and everyone thinks that this girl is still very stable. Liu Xia likes well-behaved and stable girls very much, and gradually became familiar with Lin Xi.

Liu Xia took Lin Xi to a forest, and Lin Xi saw a few trees, but he couldn't name them. Liu Xia pointed to a tree and said, "This is a walnut tree, pick the fruit, peel the skin, and there are walnuts inside." ”

Lin Xi looked at the round and green fruits, and couldn't imagine that walnuts were like this. However, she likes to eat, so she can't take care of it much, and she and Liu Xia are busy picking these fruits. The two struggled for two hours, and Lin Xi's hands were broken, and he filled the back basket before going down the mountain. Of course, Lin Xi didn't forget to secretly transport some of it into the space. Now she is like a little hamster, trying her best to store food for the winter.

On the way down the mountain, Lin Xi and Liu Xia talked about visiting relatives. Lin Xi asked: "This time Fang Chuanzhi goes back, it will be the last time he will go home." Liu Xia's steps paused, smiled and said: "It stands to reason that he can go back to visit relatives, but this time he selected the workers, peasants and soldiers cadets, and when he went back to visit relatives, someone was going to jump, so he gave up the quota for visiting relatives, and I don't know who was wet." When Lin Xi heard this, he felt that Fang Chuanzhi was really smart, and he couldn't take all the good things by himself, otherwise it would only add to the trouble.

Educated youths have family leave every Chinese New Year, but they won't let you all go back, everyone will come in turn. Newly arrived intellectuals are basically not given family leave. Lin Xi didn't think about going back, she had no feelings for the original owner's family, and she didn't have nostalgia. She asked other educated youths to send back the last letter, thinking that she would just write a letter to her family to pay a New Year's greeting during the New Year.

Liu Xia naturally didn't know what she thought, and thought that the little girl was homesick, so she asked her: "Do you want to go back?" If you are really homesick, you can go to the town post office and call the family, it is a bit expensive. But now that you're injured, don't go to work, it's convenient to take leave. ”

Lin Xi just smiled and asked Liu Xia: "Sister Liu, are you going back?" Liu Xia nodded: "I've been here for a few years, I didn't go back last year, and I want to go back this year." ”

The two of them were talking, and they went down the mountain. When they arrived at the Zhiqing Point, everyone saw Liu Xia and Lin Xi carrying two baskets of walnuts on their backs, and hurriedly went up to help. Yuan He said with a smile: "The two of you have worked hard, hurry up and wash your face, and we will do the rest of the work." "Walnuts are still peeled, this is also a trouble, Lin Xi is reluctant to participate, and goes into the house with Liu Xia to rest.

When washing his face, Lin Xi felt that his hands hurt badly, and when he looked closely, there were small scratches on his hands and a blister. She frowned and looked at her hands, Liu Xia leaned over, saw a few scars on Lin Xi's white and pure hands, and persuaded her: "Go to the clinic and apply some medicine, it will be fine in two days." ”

Lin Xi thought about giving the walnuts to Chu Sheng, so he went out. A few educated youths in the yard were peeling walnuts, and when they saw Lin Xi going out, they asked Liu Xia, Liu Xia said the reason, and everyone didn't say anything. After all, she has never worked before, and it is normal to get a little injury, everyone came over like this, only Wang Xiaozhen muttered in a low voice: "She is delicate, and she has to go to the clinic for a little injury." Yuan He glanced at Wang Xiaozhen. Han Meifang gently pushed Wang Xiaozhen and whispered, "Don't keep squeezing her." Wang Xiaozhen said half-complaining, half-aggrieved: "Sister Han, don't you know, she is a young lady." When we were making trains together, she was showing off vigorously, eating white flour steamed buns, wearing new clothes, and looking down on me. Otherwise, how could I have messed with her. What Wang Xiaozhen said, except for Yu Linlin, everyone didn't believe it. Lin Xi's days are not short, everyone just thinks that this girl has few words, but she doesn't show anything, and she doesn't look down on everyone. Even if I hurt my hand, I was working hard and didn't drag everyone down.

Everyone looked at Yu Linlin, Yu Linlin was the last to get on the train, and she didn't have much contact with Lin Xi, so it was hard to say anything, and when she saw Wang Xiaozhen staring at herself, she had to say hesitantly: "One thing, she doesn't like to take care of us." ”

The other educated youths stopped talking, and everyone looked at Lin Xi's performance, facts speak louder than words, and it is estimated that most of them are still Wang Xiaozhen's small eyes. Wang Xiaozhen also felt that everyone didn't believe her words, and she became more and more angry.

Lin Xi didn't know the episode of Zhiqingdian, she went to the clinic, Chu Sheng was helping Dr. Xiao Song clean up the medicine cabinet, Dr. Song explained the role of medicine to him, saw Lin Xi coming, and said with a smile: "Lin Zhiqing, come to see Chu Sheng." Chu Sheng heard Lin Xi's voice, ran out of the house directly, and said affectionately, "Sister is back?" Lin Xi handed him a small cloth bag, Chu Sheng opened it and saw that it was all walnuts. Smiled and asked, "For me?" "Of course." Lin Xi looked at Chu Sheng's happy appearance and was also very comforted. Since Chu Sheng came to Dr. Song, his temperament has been much more lively, and there are more smiles on his face.

Lin Xi said to Doctor Song: "Doctor Song, show me your hands, I wore out my skin when I went up the mountain today." When Chu Sheng heard this, the smile on his face was put away, and he asked anxiously: "Sister, what's wrong? Doctor Xiao Song looked at Lin Xi's hand and said, "It's okay, just smear some medicine, it's just that the blisters need to be dealt with, I'll pick them for you." He turned his head to Chu Sheng and said, "What are you making a fuss about? It's just a little injury, it's not in the way." ”

Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi's white hands, several red wounds were particularly eye-catching, and there were eye-catching blisters, and his little brows were furrowed. Lin Xi thought it was funny, so he said to Chu Sheng, "Help me find some medicine." Chu Sheng let out a sullen "um" and silently went to the medicine cabinet to get the medicine. Doctor Xiao Song teased: "This kid feels sorry for you." Lin Xi just smiled. Doctor Xiao Song helped Lin Xi take care of his wounds, Lin Xi was going back, and Chu Sheng had to send Lin Xi away. Lin Xi had no choice but to let him send it.

On the way, Chu Sheng didn't speak, drooping his head, looking unhappy. Lin Xi felt like a poor little milk dog. Asked softly: "Why are you unhappy?" Chu Sheng didn't speak, held back for a long time, and said, "Sister, how did you hurt your hand?" Lin Xi saw that Chu Sheng was still struggling with this question, so he replied to him: "When I went up the mountain to pick walnuts, I got it." It's just the little things, don't be upset. After Lin Xi finished speaking, he looked down at Chu Sheng, Chu Sheng was still like that, Lin Xi didn't know what to say. At the end, Chu Sheng said: "Sister, if you like to eat walnuts, I'll pick them, don't go in the future." Lin Xi felt very warm in his heart when he heard this, and laughed at him: "With this little injury, I won't work?! When my hands are ready, I have to do farm work with everyone, what should I do at that time? Okay, you are still young, don't worry about these things." I'm going to go shopping in town in a few days, will you go?"

Chu Sheng's eyes lit up: "Really take me there?" Lin Xi saw that he had recovered his spirits and said, "I want to go and buy you a few books, it's too inconvenient to have no textbooks." Chu Sheng didn't expect that he would not only have to take himself to the town, but also buy things for himself, not to mention how beautiful it was. A pair of bright eyes looked at Lin Xi, Lin Xi's heart was about to be seen, and he touched his head lovingly, the small green stubble growing on his head was a little prickly, and she was itchy.

After sending Lin Xi to the door of the Zhiqing Point, Chu Sheng turned around and walked back. Lin Xi looked at the back of the little guy in the distance, Chu Sheng was still wearing the shabby clothes, and the thin summer shirt could not resist the chill in the autumn wind, Lin Xi sighed in his heart. The Chu family is really mean, they don't care about the child after they kick it out of the door, and they don't even give a single piece of clothing. Doctor Song and the two old men are probably careless, and they can't think of these problems. Chu Sheng now only has a set of clothes on his body, as well as a set of old clothes brought by Tang Zhishu. A child with only two sets of clothes is unthinkable in modern society.

After two days, after giving Chu Sheng a lesson, Lin Xi took out a small package and handed it to Chu Sheng: "I'll come to you tomorrow morning, let's go to the town together, take the tractor in the village, don't sleep late." It's for you, you take it. ”

Chu Sheng's mind was on going out to play, and he said excitedly: "Sister, I won't sleep lazy, don't worry." Looking down at the package in his hand, he wanted to open it: "What is this?"

Lin Xi pressed his hand and said, "Go back and see again, you will like it." "My sister gave me things, and I liked them all. The child looked at Lin Xi with a flattering face, and Lin Xi said angrily: "What did you eat just now, your mouth is so sweet." ”

Chu Sheng rushed back to the clinic, Dr. Song had just sent a patient away, looking at Chu Sheng's happy appearance, the smile on his face deepened a little: "Are you back? Sister asked me to come back and watch again. ”

Doctor Song saw that Chu Sheng carefully opened the package, and inside was a set of army green clothes, Chu Sheng shook off the clothes, and the size was his size. Doctor Song looked at Chu Sheng's ill-fitting summer clothes and knew in his heart.

Chu Sheng changed into this set of clothes, which imitated the style of military uniforms, and the size was also appropriate. Chu Sheng looked left and right in front of the mirror, not to mention how much he liked it. Doctor Song was very energetic when he saw Chu Sheng wearing it like this. During this period of recuperation, the child also grew some meat, which was not as scary as when he first came.

Seeing Chu Sheng's proud appearance, Doctor Xiao Song couldn't help it: "Okay, don't look at it, you should look in the mirror again." Chu Sheng glared at him angrily. Looking at the boy's fried appearance, Dr. Song had the heart to joke with him: "This dress is good, where did it come from?" Chu Sheng deliberately showed: "My sister gave it." "Your sister is really capable, this body is a few dollars, ask your sister, and get me a body when I go back." With that, he reached out and touched his clothes. Chu Sheng dodged back alertly, and Dr. Song felt empty. "Isn't it stingy, can you touch it for me?" Chu Sheng looked at him vigilantly, and said fiercely: "You are not allowed to go to my sister, and you are not allowed to ask her for something." "Oops, you stinky boy. "Little Doctor Song made a gesture to beat him.
