Chapter Twenty-Three: There Are People in the Trees

was told by her grandmother like this, Ruofei naturally would not refuse, so she nodded and went out from behind her stove.

Grandma's vegetable garden, Ruofei naturally knows where it is, in fact, it is the wasteland that her grandfather opened on the hill, not very far from her grandmother's house, and it will take a few minutes to walk over.

Reborn as a child, Ruofei's temperament is a little out of the way, not jumping towards the hill, while happily chasing the butterfly, looking carefree.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp......" A birdsong suddenly sounded, and Ruofei subconsciously looked up at the tree by the fence beside the road.

At this time, the sun has set, the sky is already a little unclear, although it is not pitch black, but it is also a little drowsy, it stands to reason that the birds have returned to the nest, this abrupt bird call naturally attracted Ruofei's attention.

As soon as he looked up, Ruofei realized that he had been deceived, it turned out that there was a person lying on the tree, and a young face leaked out from the gap in the leaves, smiling at Ruofei.

"Hey, Scarlet, where are you going?" asked the man in the tree?

Ruofei doesn't know this person very well, it stands to reason that he should actually know, but Ruofei came back from many years in the future, so people who are not very close naturally can't remember, this person is a person who is not close, and Xiaofei naturally doesn't know who it is at this time.

"Oh, I'm going to call my dad and uncle home for dinner. Although he didn't know him, the other party could call out his name, and Ruofei still answered the question politely.

"Oh, call your father, it's still early, don't be in such a hurry, do you want to come over to me, I'll give you something funny?" the man said with a harmless laugh.

Ruofei was a little inexplicable, looked at the person and carefully searched his memory, and found that he really didn't remember who this person was, but listening to his tone, he should know himself, and because the village of his grandmother's house is not big, generally people in a village actually know each other, Ruofei does not suspect that this person does not know himself.

But Ruofei unconsciously gave birth to some vigilance, even if the person smiled harmlessly and kindly, but Ruofei just gave birth to a feeling that the big bad wolf wanted to deceive the child, not to mention that she was not very familiar with this person from her memory, but he knew that he was going to call his grandfather back for dinner, and coaxed himself to go to him, but he was afraid that he would not have any good intentions.

So Ruofei shook her head and politely replied: "Thank you, I don't want fun things, I won't call my father again, my mother-in-law will scold me later." ”

"Oh, it's really fun, I'll come down and open the door, can you come and have a look?" the man continued to coax.

Ruofei blinked, why did he feel more and more wrong, after thinking about it, he shook his head decisively, dropped a sentence, and hurriedly ran, for fear that after the man came down from the tree, he opened the fence door to chase him.

The hill is not far away, Ruofei rushed over in one breath, the west half of the hill has been reclaimed by the outside, and the crops planted by my grandfather and grandmother are lush and green, and there is a small puddle in the north, next to this puddle is the vegetable garden of my grandmother's house, and the vegetable garden is surrounded by a fence and planted with bamboo.

The terrain here is relatively high, and in order to avoid the scourge of wild animals or free-range pigs entering the vegetable garden, a lot of spotted thatch is generally inserted outside the vegetable garden, and these spotted thatchs form a natural barrier after they grow.

Through the puddle, Ruofei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did she dare to look behind her, and found that the person did not follow, so her heart completely relaxed, and then a smile appeared on her face, and she shouted at the father and son who were busy working over there.

"Father, uncle. "It's not far away, but if you don't shout, the people over there won't be able to hear it.

At this time, Guo Shulin, who was carrying a load of mud, looked up and looked outside when he heard the sound, and saw a small figure standing at the gate of his vegetable garden, so he walked into the vegetable field while carrying the mud, and responded with a smile: "Xiaofei, you are here." ”

Guo Xingwang, who was digging the mud underneath, also looked up at that side, but did not speak, but continued to dig the mud shovel by shovel.

Ruofei didn't answer, but turned around and went into the vegetable garden, and ran along the narrow field shore towards the place where his grandfather and brother-in-law were doing their work, shouting as she ran: "Father, brother-in-law, my mother-in-law asked me to call you back to eat." ”

Guo Xingwang, who was originally doing the work, saw the afterglow of his eyes, and his heart immediately lifted, and he quickly threw away the shovel in his hand, climbed up from the mud puddle, and shouted in his mouth: "Slow down, beware of falling into the puddle." ”

Ruofei didn't care, she was small, so naturally her requirements for Tian An were not so big, so she ran to the place where her grandfather and uncle were doing their work without slowing down.

"Father, uncle, hurry up, it's getting dark, and if you don't go back, you have to be in a hurry. Ruofei ran to the big pit dug by his grandfather, panting slightly.

Guo Shulin had already poured the mud in the basket into the newly opened ground above, and walked towards his niece and father with an empty basket, in fact, he picked the mud for a day, and his shoulder was also a little painful at this time, and when he heard Ruofei say this, he also said: "Dad, it's not early, let's go back, this work can be done tomorrow." ”

Originally, Guo Xingwang wanted to do it for a while, dig more mud and pile up the ground to compost the ground, but at this time, his granddaughter ran over and shouted, just think about it, so he looked at Ruofei and nodded: "Okay, the things are packed, let's go back." After speaking, he looked at his son and himself again, and made sure that his son was still clean, and then continued: "Wait for you to carry Xiaofei over, this road is not easy to walk, just now this girl jumped and ran over, I was afraid that she would fall under the field bank and fall out of a bad way." ”

Guo Shulin didn't object, although he was actually very tired after a day's work, but his niece has always been lightweight, and he didn't care, so he picked the open space basket on his shoulders and stretched out his hand to hug Ruofei.

Ruofei suddenly stopped doing it, she was hugged by her uncle or something on weekdays, Ruofei didn't care, but at this time, Ruofei was a little heartbroken Uncle and grandfather, so she hurriedly refused: "No need, I can walk by myself, besides, this road is not so difficult to walk, I can walk by myself, my brother-in-law is so tired, how can he still hug me." ”

Guo Shulin and Guo Xingwang didn't expect Ruofei to say this, although Ruofei has been very good in the past few days, but they have always treated Ruofei as a child, and they will be spoiled most of the time when they can be petted.
