At about six o'clock in the afternoon, the canal full of flags on both sides finally took shape, and in the dense glow, everyone dispersed.

"Xiaoqing, you sit here first, don't mess around, I'll go to the dishes. Brother Tang found a corner with few people and arranged for Tang Qing to sit down.

The Tang family has always come to the canteen to eat, and Tang Dad and Tang Ge have always run with bowls, and most of the masters who scoop vegetables in the canteen know Tang Pei.

"Tang family boy, you usually have to let your Xiaoqing eat more, this little face is thin, you have to make up for it. It was Master Feng, who was helping the cafeteria, who spoke, and scooped a high layer of braised pork into Tang Pei's enamel bowl as he spoke.

Tang Pei smiled and said to Master Feng: "Uncle Feng, enough is enough, I will definitely look at Xiaoqing in a while and let her eat a few more pieces." ”

"Lao Feng, how can this kid just eat meat, Xiao Pei come over and give Xiaoqing some cabbage. As he spoke, he also scooped a bowl full of cabbage roasted meatballs into another enamel bowl in Tang Pei's hand.

"Hey, children can't be picky eaters, Aunt Yun, you're right. Tang Pei was satisfied and went back to find his sister with two large bowls of dishes.

Behind Brother Tang are Wu Xinlian and Huang Ting, her parents are not around, and Huang Ting is more dependent on Wu Xinlian.

"It's Xinlian, why didn't you come to dinner with your mother. Aunt Yun asked casually.

Wu Xinlian's face was a little embarrassed: "My mother should eat with my brother, I didn't see her when I went home." ”

Aunt Yun raised her head, glanced at her, and didn't say anything more. Scoop a shallow spoonful into her bowl. Wu Xinlian didn't say anything, but Huang Ting was very angry.

In the cafeteria, the crowd was very crowded, Tang Qing and the others arrived early and sat down early.

Wu Xinlian looked around and couldn't find an empty table.

"Brother Tang, can I sit here with Xiaoting?" Wu Xinlian asked, but the bowl in her hand was already on the table.

The brother and sister glanced at each other, and Tang Qing moved his bowl slightly to make room for them to be larger.

Tang Pei just smiled slightly: "Sit down, it's just enough for you to sit down." ”

Tang Pei already had the appearance of a little adult at this time, and Huang Ting was not as hostile to Tang Qing as she was before in front of adults.

She followed Wu Xinlian and thanked her softly.

"It's okay, let's eat quickly, the food won't taste good when it's cold later." After speaking, he put a few pieces of meat into Tang Qing's bowl.

"Brother, you can eat it yourself, I can't finish it if I clip so much. Tang Qing had a bitter face, it was really sweet and sad to have a brother who cared about him.

"Don't be picky eaters, don't finish eating the bowl, I'll tell my mother when I go back at night, you didn't eat well today. Brother Tang didn't even raise his head, and threw out this sentence.

Tang Qing's face immediately wrinkled, no matter how delicious the food was, he couldn't eat it, and he kept complaining about his brother in his heart, while picking up the chopsticks and stuffing them into his mouth with some taste.

Wu Xinlian next to her saw the brother and sister like this, envy and jealousy were intertwined.

The reason why she doesn't eat with her mother and younger brother is because Wu's mother always gives her brother the things in her bowl, and only if her brother doesn't eat will she let herself finish it. Although most of the materials in the space are still preserved, the home is so small, and I can't find the opportunity to cook for myself when I look down and don't look up.

The four of them finished their meal very quietly.

Don't worry about Tang's father and Tang's mother, Brother Tang got up and made two more meals, and went to the health center with Tang Qing to see the situation.

"Brother Tang, Xiaoting is also going to the health center, you can go together. Wu Xinlian put down Huang Ting's hand on her arm, "Xiaoting, my mother must be waiting for me at home to go back to do housework, I have to go back quickly." ”

Huang Ting bit her lip, and finally could only say, "Okay, Sister Xinlian, go back quickly." This little girl was always a little timid towards Tang Pei, who was two heads taller than her.

Along the way, Huang Ting quietly followed behind the brother and sister. Tang Qing didn't stop chattering like before, but from time to time he turned his head to see if Huang Ting was still walking behind him.

The clinic is located in a tiled house near the village chief's house.

As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Tang's mother coming out with a basin and pouring the water on the ground next to her.

"Why are you here, Tang Pei quickly bring your sister home, the child is in poor health, can you come to see the doctor casually?" Tang's mother saw Tang Qing pulling Tang's sleeve at a glance.

"Mom, we're here to bring you food. Tang Pei lifted the bag on the handle.

"It's so late, I haven't noticed it yet, okay, give me the bag, you don't have to send it over next time, your Aunt Sun will help us go to cook." Tang's mother touched the top of Tang Qing's head and took the bag from Brother Tang's hand.

"Aunt Tang, how is my dad?" Huang Ting, who had been following the brother and sister, grabbed Tang's mother and asked.

"Xiaoting, you go home with your brother Tang Pei first, and go to my house first, your mother can't be distracted to take care of you now. Tang's mother looked tired.

"Can I go in and see my dad?" Huang Ting raised and looked at Tang's mother with wide eyes.

Tang's mother hesitated and didn't speak, and after a minute, she struggled to squeeze out a sentence from her mouth: "Good boy, you go back first, and you can come back when your mother calls you." ”

Huang Ting clenched her fists and ran into the house with a puff of smoke. Tang's mother sighed and followed her into the house.

Tang Qing and Tang Pei also hesitated to go to the door of the house and did not enter.

There was a choked sobs mixed with crying from the room: "Why did you tie up your father, he was already sick, isn't it more uncomfortable?"

The windows were tightly closed and the doors were tightly closed, and on the innermost bed lay a man whose hands and feet were trapped with strips of cloth.

It's only been a day, and the vitality of the whole person seems to have disappeared.

Tang's father and Sun Yizhou's father were sitting on the chairs next to the bed, afraid that the person on the bed would break free of the cloth in their hands again.

Originally, I wanted to tie my hands and feet with hemp rope, but everyone couldn't bear it, so they tore an old piece of clothing and wrapped it in long strips of cloth to trap people.

Huang's mother hugged her daughter, the strength in her hands became bigger and bigger, and her arms became tighter and tighter: "Dad is sick, don't quarrel with him, listen to your Aunt Tang, go back with Brother Tang Pei first, and today you will sleep with Sister Tang Qing." ”

"Mom, I don't want to go to someone else's house, I want to be with you. Although Huang Ting felt that her mother was holding her mother too tightly and uncomfortable, she spent the whole day in this kind of anxiety and didn't want to leave her mother.

"Obedient, this is not a place for you little ones. Huang's mother let go of her daughter.

Standing at the door of the house, the brother and sister, who had never entered, didn't know what the situation was inside, but it was rare that they had no curiosity at all. Seeing Huang Ting go out, the door was quickly closed in the house.

Growing up so big, it was the first time for Tang Qing to sleep with others, and he always felt a little awkward in his heart. Huang Ting, who followed home, didn't speak all night.

Tang Qing wanted to make her happy, but she was also suffocated by the gloom on her face.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Tang Qing waited in the house for a long time and didn't see Huang Ting come in. When I got out of the room, I saw the little girl squatting alone under the mulberry tree in the yard.

"It's late, go to bed early, maybe you will ask us to go to work again tonight, if you don't sleep again, your body will not be able to bear it." Tang Qing walked closer.

The little girl ignored her

"Huang Ting!" Tang Qing walked quickly to her side.

"You're annoyed. As he spoke, he smashed the thing in his hand at Tang Qing.

Tang Qing, who subconsciously covered his face with his hand, was accidentally cut a cut, as if it was the remnants of a hot water bottle that had been broken before.

The blood on her hand kept pouring out, dripping down to the brass ring she had been wearing on her hand. Huang Ting felt a little guilty when she saw Tang Qing who was injured by herself, but she still didn't say anything and entered the house.

"Don't worry about children, don't worry about children. Tang Qing persuaded himself in his heart, but he was still a little angry.

Entering the kitchen and scooping out some water from the water tank to clean the wound, Tang Qing was surprised to find that the blood stains on his hands were slowly disappearing.

Then, disappeared from the kitchen.

Tang Qing opened his eyes, and in front of him was a temple shrouded in white mist, the temple was supported by 36 pillars carved with decorative reliefs, each of which had several shallow grooves carved on them, and the shrine in the center of the temple was also isolated by an invisible film that could not be seen clearly, and Tang Qing could not get close by any means.

What made Tang Qing happiest was that there were four acres of land outside the temple, and with the land, he could grow and store grain, which was really a good thing. But now everything in the house is received in the public canteen, and the seeds and everything are centrally managed. I haven't had a chance to use the space yet.

With great excitement, Tang Qing walked into the room and lay down, a thick rag wrapped around the place where the wound on his hand disappeared.

In the dark, Huang Ting, who was sleeping in another quilt, looked at Tang Qing's fingers wrapped in cloth strips, and bit her lower lip slightly.

The next morning's class was canceled, and Tang Qing bypassed Brother Tang's sis and went to the field. Early in the morning, everyone was busy with construction, and no one was in the fields.

There are few types of crops in the fields, but there are still basic grains: potatoes, taro, etc. It's a pity that Tang Qing, a southerner, has never had the opportunity to find the rice seed he has been thinking about. At home, he turned out the wheat seeds in his palm, and Tang Qing picked out a few seeds from them and put them in the space.

Huang Ting lived in Tang's house for five days, and Tang's father and Tang's mother dragged their tired bodies home after five days.

Huang Ting's father passed away not long after. Since then, Tang Qing has never seen Huang Ting again, and people in the village say that her mother took her back to her parents' house.

The days went by so unhurriedly, taking classes three or four half-days a week, going out to work with his parents every day, going to the cafeteria to eat, occasionally being woken up by the radio in the middle of the night, plus looking for opportunities to farm in the space, Tang Qing felt that his life was full.

After planting crops in the space, Tang Qing found that the space was a great weapon: the plants grew much faster than outside, and they could harvest a crop almost a week.

In addition to planting, Tang Qing also got a share of five drops of spiritual spring every day, one day when drinking water, suddenly water came out of his fingertips, Tang Qing with a big heart immediately tasted it, the taste was sweet, but the effect was not as magical as written in the novels I had read before.

In the New Year, there was no change in the village, except for the smelting of a large number of iron blocks that were completely useless, and the food in the public canteen became worse and worse.

What panicked the villagers was the increasingly strange weather.

The Tang family, who came back from the fields together, rarely sat at home together and drank water. After chatting about things at school, the family was amused by Tang Qing.

Dad Tang suddenly frowned: "the child, last time Brother Qin came over and said that he could help us transfer our household registration to the city, I wasn't afraid that it would be too troublesome for people to agree, but I thought about it these days, whether I refused too quickly." Today, when I was working with the village chief, I had a few conversations, and he said that the village had to hand over some more grain to the city recently. But this year's harvest has not come up, and there is not much grain in stock, so after that"

"The food in the cafeteria has also deteriorated recently. "Brother Tang is not very happy either.

"You know how to eat. Tang Ma knocked on Brother Tang's head.

Tang Qing, who pretended to drink water very seriously, knew very well in his heart that the public cafeteria would be closed soon, and everyone would have to find a way to fill their stomachs.

When he went to bed at night, Tang Qing said that he would not run to the cubicle alone to sleep: "Dad, Mom, I want to sleep with you, when I sleep alone, I always dream, and I can't sleep well." Tang Qing, who is coquettish and cute, doesn't feel that she has no lower limit at all, but she has planned to have a showdown with Tang's father and Tang's mother tonight.

"Okay, the girl sleeps with her mother, and her mother is the happiest, come, mother hug" Tang's mother was immersed in the joy of her daughter's wholehearted dependence on herself.

Dad Tang was unexpectedly careful: "How can Xiaoqing keep dreaming, shouldn't there be any sequelae left by the previous injury, children dream a lot, sleep badly, and it is not good for the body." ”

Tang Qingyi was stunned and broke free from Tang's mother's arms: "I have always dreamed of a place these days, which contains delicious fruits and fruits, and some things I don't know. Tang Qing shamelessly sells cuteness. After speaking, he also took out a handful of mulberries from the space and showed them to Tang's father and Tang's mother.

Tang's father and Tang's mother were immediately stunned. Tang's mother, who reacted first: "You, where did you come from, our girl won't have any tops." ”

When Tang Qing heard this, he chuckled in his heart, "Mother's imagination." ”

Dad Tang angrily: "What a mess, let's this is a new society, come, girl, you won't be a trick, tell sù Dad, did you hide in your clothes before." ”

Tang Qing was ruthless and stubborn: "Last year, when I was lying in bed with a fever, I was groggy and groggy, dreaming that I had been floating and drifting, and I had drifted to a place, and then I heard you keep calling me, so I woke up, and when I woke up, I found that the place was still there, and I could still take out the food in that place." With that, he put some potatoes and taro on the table in the room.

At this moment, Tang's father and Tang's mother were dumbfounded.
