Chapter 9: Godmother
Banxia chanted Amitabha Buddha in her heart, thinking that if she really grew into a tall and strong body full of fat, she wouldn't waste her youth in Qinghe Village!
Aunt Li felt that she was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained a few words to Banxia, focusing on what to pay attention to in the afternoon ploughing, and before Banxia could write it down, Aunt Li ran into the house and took the basket and slipped quickly.

Banxia looked at Aunt Li's back that disappeared in the blink of an eye, pursed her lips and smiled.
She was really tired, she ate some leftover dumplings in the morning at noon, fortunately the automatic machine could still keep warm, she didn't have to recook it herself, saved a lot of things, and climbed into bed with satisfaction after padding her stomach.
When she woke up again, Banxia was woken up by the sound of Aunt Li knocking on the door, she opened her eyes in a daze, she didn't know where she was, she swayed to open the door and let Aunt Li in, I wanted to go back to the bed to make up for sleep, but I didn't expect Aunt Li to drag Banxia's hand to the pool to wash her hands and wash her face, and personally helped Banxia change into plain clothes, and when Aunt Li still wanted to put on cloth shoes for Banxia herself, Banxia's drowsiness finally woke up, and she put on her shoes in panic.
Banxia looked at the floral cloth shoes on her feet, they were brand new, not the pair she wore in the morning.
"These shoes ......" Banxia looked up at Aunt Li.
Aunt Li smiled contentedly, "I did it, my two daughters, the shoes are made by me, and I will prepare a few pairs in advance in case there is an emergency, in the morning, the shoes you wear seem to be uncomfortable, and the walking is a little swaying, so I brought a pair out from home, it just so happens that the little daughter's feet are as big as yours, and you two can change them in the future." ”
Aunt Li was talking, and she didn't know why she was so happy, and the whole person seemed to have found sustenance, and she kept laughing. Seeing that Banxia was good, she was even happier than Banxia.
Banxia pursed her lips, and her heart was moved for a while. Only mothers will see any discomfort of their children in their eyes and take them to heart. And Aunt Li is doing better than her own mother.
She wanted to say that if Aunt Li likes her so much, she can also recognize Aunt Li as her godmother, and if Aunt Li doesn't dislike it, she will treat Aunt Li as half a mother in the future.
But she was clumsy and thought a lot, but she didn't say a word.
Aunt Li didn't notice Banxia's abnormality, and looked at the clothes that she had just changed for Banxia, she beckoned Banxia and said: "Hurry up and put away your clothes, as well as your shoes, these things are not used in the countryside, you don't wear them in the future, I will make you a few clothes, I will put them on today, and I will bring them to you with the shoes when the time comes." ”
Banxia's voice choked: "Thank you." ”
Aunt Li smiled happily and said indifferently: "What is polite to me, if you feel embarrassed, call me a godmother, I will be worth it." ”
"Godmother." Banxia didn't hesitate and shouted willingly.
Aunt Li was very excited, her eyes immediately turned red, and she raised her hand to rub her eyes in disguise, and said in a low voice: "I know that you are a good boy, I can hear you call me a godmother today, no matter what I do for you in my life, I am worth it." ”
Banxia didn't know why Aunt Li's whole body was trembling, she just wanted to go up and hug Aunt Li warmly.
Aunt Li immediately changed her expression and said seriously, "Do you remember everything I told you in the morning?" ”
"Huh?" Banxia was dumbfounded.
"I know you can't remember, but fortunately I have it for you." Aunt Li conjured out a basket from behind, obviously the one she had seen in the morning, but it was still eye-catching, "This is the straw hat I prepared for you, this is the anti-mosquito bite medicine, this is rubbed on the face to reduce swelling, your face is sunburned in the morning, you must remember to apply it once in the morning and evening, otherwise it will leave a scar in the future, this is a glove to carry in farming, your hands are too tender, you will be injured if you don't pay attention to protection, this is for you to wipe sweat, don't scratch and rub your face with your hands, it's not good for your face, this is ......"
Aunt Li took out a lot of things from the basket, and when she put these things on Banxia one by one, and smeared them, Banxia walked to the pond and looked at her "equipment", she really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
And so it went on for two days.
During the day, Banxia followed Aunt Li to learn farming, and at night she fell asleep in bed unconscious, the labor was hard, and she didn't have time to think too much about things when she was busy, Banxia's tense nerves were also slowly relaxed, and after a few days of original farmhouse days, Banxia felt refreshed from head to toe.
Three days passed, Banxia slowly became familiar with the work at hand, sunrise and sunset, she gradually adapted to this idyllic and simple life, and her mentality also changed.
This evening sent away Aunt Li, Banxia returned to the main house, in the morning Aunt Li helped her cook, not a very complicated snack, a few buns, some side dishes, and a vegetable soup, Banxia warmed up after filling the stomach, just want to sleep beautifully, but this day came an unexpected and unreasonable person.
The old man knocked on the door three times, but there was no more, and he waited when no one opened it, as if he was sure that someone was home.
Banxia also occasionally thought of the old man in the past two days, and she had been paying attention to what the old man said would see her in two days. The old man said that he would give her some simple maps of the surroundings, Banxia still cares about this, with the map, she can go to a farther place to see, and she doesn't have to worry about not finding a home to come back.
The old man is still the same, his outfit has hardly changed, and he only straightens his waist when he sees Banxia, otherwise he is lying on his back. When Banxia saw the old man again, she was no longer in the same state of mind when she first came, she became calmer, her eyes revealed calmness, as if her heart had been stabilized, and there were not so many changes happening again.
And when the old man looked at the dusty Banxia standing in front of him, he almost thought that he had knocked on the wrong door.
"...... you," the old man asked hesitantly, "how did you become like this?" ”
This is still the beautiful and clean little girl I just met, obviously a rustic little village girl.
And Banxia also understood the doubts in the old man's eyes, she didn't want to explain, and the old man didn't want to listen to the explanation.
"Come in and I'll pour you a cup of tea." Banxia turned sideways and let the old man into the house and politely entertained him.
She still has tea at home, it tastes very good, at least Aunt Li likes it very much, every time she drinks tea, she will show a satisfied expression, Banxia thinks that it is not lazy to entertain the old man with tea, so she does not shy away from using an automatic machine to start boiling water, boiling tea, and pouring tea.
