Chapter 190: Snakeberry Influence
The boy in the back row, in fact, is not far from Xu Shuangxia's house, two streets away, and lives in a small lane behind the department store. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Every time the typhoon flood season begins in June, he always wears high rubber shoes to school several times, and as soon as he wears them, his table mates will ask with concern: "Is your house waterlogged?" Did the little bench float up? ā
There are many households in his house, the terrain is slightly lower, the drainage facilities can not keep up, there was a typhoon in the summer vacation, it rained all night, it is said that he woke up to find that the house was flooded, the bench and his slippers floated on the water together, after the start of school to tell the classmates, the summer vacation homework is soaked, just do not have to do, the homeroom teacher is very reasonable when registering, no need for him to make up.
Xu Shuang looked at his cloth shoes, and always felt that the cloth shoes were not suitable for the lowland of his house.
She was idle, twisting her neck and looking down for a little time, and after a while, the cloth shoes were gone, and the boy walked to the back and talked to the other boys.
Xu Shuangchuan should not have glanced at the boy when she looked up, and then turned her back on her, so that people could know at a glance that she was staring at other people's black cloth shoes and secretly turned some thoughts.
Perhaps it was for this reason that when she heard the birds chirping in the woods on the small dirt bag in the park, and suggested that she go there to observe, she was resisted by the boy.
"Team leader, you see so many snakeberries, the snake doesn't know how many mouthfuls of saliva licked on it, are you going to let everyone feed the snake?" The boy said.
The prestige of Xu Shuang's team leader was swept away because of this vigorous snakeberry. Later, everyone was looking for a place, and she followed the crowd silently. After the observation activity was over, out of the park gate, she led the team members to stand in front of the teacher, the teacher glanced, how many people entered, how many people went out, there was no shortage of one, and her temporary team leader stepped down.
Xu Shuangchuan went home and asked her parents, Xuan Chunhua didn't know about snakeberry's habits, but she didn't like her daughter to go to those deserted places, so she said: "That kind of small fruit like wild strawberries, I heard the old man say that snakes love to eat, probably because of this, it's called snakeberry, and when you see it in the future, stay away, don't go in the grass." ā
Xu Shuangchuan remembered the terrifying legend of snakeberry in this way. Of course, with a wide range of knowledge, she knew that this was mostly a rumor, but the initial memory was too profound, and when she saw Snakeberry later, she could always think of snakes smoothly.
"Rui Yanzi, don't pick it." She stopped, "That's not to be eaten." ā
Wang Rui raised his head and showed his small front teeth: "Auntie, I have eaten." ā
Xu Shuangchuan stared at Wang Rui speechless for a while, and asked for a while, "What kind of taste?" ā
Wang Rui tilted his little head and thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's tasteless." His eyes sparkled, "Does Auntie want to eat?" Give this one to my aunt to taste. ā
Xu Shuang glanced at the little red fruit that was not much tall from the ground, took Wang Rui by the hand, and taught gently: "Rui Yanzi, let's not pick and eat the things that grow outside." ā
Wang Rui blinked his eyes, pointed to the citrus tree and said, "Grandpa said, when the fruit is yellow, he will pick it for me to eat." ā
"This is planted by your grandfather, of course you can pick and eat, those wild fruits that grow casually, you can't eat them indiscriminately." Xu Shuang descended in an emergency, and gave birth to wisdom.
Wang Rui nodded obediently, and in a blink of an eye, he was no longer entangled, he happily pulled Xu Shuang, pointed to a jujube tree and said, "Auntie, this can also be eaten." ā
The green and red jujubes are hanging all over the branches, and it is gratifying to look at, and it will probably take some time to eat them.
Under the leadership of Wang Rui, Xu Shuang also visited the chestnut tree, where green prickly hairballs grew among the branches and leaves, and the ferocious fruit shape made her eyes light up. When she was at home, every year after September, when the osmanthus flowers were fragrant, her mother would go to buy freshly listed chestnuts, cook a meal of chestnut chicken, and she did not forget to eat a few times of fried chestnuts with sugar.
Xu Shuang fell under the tree and salivated at the prickly hairballs, regretting that she could not wait for them to ripen.
Wang Rui is like a child with a huge treasure, eager to show off all his treasures to his guests. "Auntie, there's a different one over there."
Xu Shuangchuan followed him, looked at it for a long time, and guessed that it was a persimmon tree.
It's a pity, if she comes here in autumn, in this orchard, picking and eating, I don't know how happy she is.
After Wang Rui took her to see the miscellaneous trees in the citrus orchard, he was thirsty, and he picked up the apple and was about to stuff it into his mouth. Xu Shuangchuan hurriedly stopped: "I haven't washed it, I can't eat it." ā
When I first burned the paper, I couldn't tell how much dust had been stained on the apple.
Wang Rui was young, but he had been soaking in the orchard with his grandfather, and he was very familiar with the terrain, so he took Xu Shuang to a simple shack, where Wang Zhongde usually used to store sickles, baskets, water pipes and other tools, and a faucet was connected in the open air under the eaves.
Xu Shuangjiang glared, watching Wang Rui familiarly reach under a bundle of branches stacked at the door and find a key.
"Auntie, there's a stool in there."
Xu Shuangchuan hesitated for a second, and asked stupidly, "Rui Yanzi, is this good?" ā
Wang Rui obviously didn't quite understand what Xu Shuangchuan meant, and he explained: "Auntie, let's sit on the stool and eat apples. ā
Xu Shuangchuan blinked, obediently took the key to open the door, the inside of the shed was even hotter than the outside, because there was no window, the light was relatively dim, Xu Shuangchuan stepped in from the light, and he couldn't see clearly for a while.
Wang Rui was more flexible than her, squeaked in, dragged out a canvas pony on the inside of the door, pointed to a long wooden stool and said, "Auntie, you sit here." ā
Xu Shuangchuan bent down to get it, and when he straightened up, he saw something hanging down from the belly of a table opposite, and immediately shouted out with a conditioned "ah", and after a second of stiffness, he turned around and ran.
She ran with a stool, an old-fashioned wooden stool that looked like it was made by hand, with long, narrow wooden slabs and two legs connected by tenons at each end. When she ran out of the door, Wang Rui was probably so frightened by her screams that she was stupid outside the door, and Xu Shuang subconsciously deflected the front legs of the stool in her direction, so as not to bump into Wang Rui.
The door of the shack was not wide, and the stool was so slanted that something tragic happened.
The stool jammed the door, blocking the impulsive Xu Shuang, she tripped and fell down, and threw herself on the overturned stool, although at the last moment she had adjusted her posture and supported the ground with her front elbow, so that her chest and abdomen were raised as high as possible, and it was worthy of rubbing to the corner of the stool, but it still hurt a little from the heart down, and the worst thing was that her entire forearm from the palm of her hand to the elbow hurt.
Xu Shuangchuan couldn't get up for a while, but what she was more afraid of was in the room behind her. She gritted her teeth and sat up, and when she saw Wang Rui carrying the little maza, she was about to cry when she flattened her mouth, and hurriedly endured the pain and shouted: "Rui Yanzi, come here." ā
"Auntie." As soon as Wang Rui's hand was released, the little Mazha fell to the ground, and the person ran in front of her.
Xu Shuangchuan struggled to stand up, pulled Wang Rui to run again, turned her head and glanced at the room, the thing seemed to be still in the old position, she looked at it again in surprise, her heart was puzzled, she stared nervously and then observed, the more she looked at it, the more she felt wrong, and finally she lowered her voice and said to Wang Rui: "Rui Yanzi, do you look at the table inside, does it look like a snake?" ā
Her trembling expression affected Wang Rui, and the child immediately held his breath and stared, and after looking at it for a while, he whispered: "Auntie, that's my grandfather's flower rope." ā
Xu Shuangchuan didn't know what words to use to describe her mood at this time. She silently recognized and recognized, and finally mustered up the courage to go into the shack, and finally confirmed that it was indeed a colored rope.
She was shocked, picked up the little maza, sat Wang Rui down, washed the apples for him, let him nibble on the apples to suppress the shock, and she went to the faucet to rinse her arms herself.
The land in front of the shack often walks back and forth, has been walked hard, coupled with the summer heat and drought during this time, the ground is more and more sunburned, Xu Shuangxia just fell to the ground, rubbed his arm to the skin, revealing red blood marks, washed by cold water, swishing pain.
She sat down on the culprit's bench and breathed a sigh of relief before she relaxed. (To be continued.) )
