Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Manman practiced the wooden stake, and practiced with the master, and was sitting on the dam with the master, blowing the swaying spring breeze, enjoying the gorgeous spring scenery, listening to the master talking about the interesting things of the same door, very comfortable. Over the past year, Li Manman's physical fitness has improved significantly, especially in the flexibility of her hands and feet, her hand hair and footwork are very well matched, Mei Qingye has praised her many times for her talent, which is one of the few disciples in this class.
Looking at the apprentice who was lazily sitting on the bamboo chair, Mei Qingye stood up, walked into the room, and brought a bowl of black things: "Manman, come and drink this bowl of medicine!" ”
Li Manman hurriedly straightened up, looked at the black medicinal juice in the bowl in the master's hand, and felt that his mouth was bitter, Li Manman had not drunk this kind of Chinese medicine in the past six months, if you want to drink it, the reason given by the master is difficult to refuse, drink it, it's too bitter! With a wrinkled face, he reached out and took the medicine bowl: "Master, can I stop drinking?" It's so bitter, my heart, liver, spleen and lungs are wrinkled! ”
"Yes!" Mei Qingye looked at the little apprentice expressionlessly.
"Really!" Li Manman was overjoyed and looked at the master in disbelief.
"Of course, as long as you don't practice martial arts from now on!" Mei Qingye Yun said lightly.
"Huh?" Li Manman frowned, drank the medicine in one go, and wiped his mouth, "I'm still drinking it well!" After all, master, you spent all your time to match me, how can you let the master's mind go to waste! ”
A hint of love flashed in Mei Qingye's eyes, and then disappeared again, took the bowl, turned around and entered the house. Li Manman saw the figure of the master disappearing at the door, so he quickly jumped up, opened his mouth, exhaled a few breaths at the wind, and secretly took out a rock candy from his pocket and put it in his mouth. Mei Qingye watched Li Manman's movements from the window and shook her head. This girl's personality is too out-of-the-box!
"It's a long time, I'm going to go out in the next few days! You don't want to come here. Mei Qingye took a glass of boiled water, handed it to Li Manman, pretended not to see the rock candy wrapped in her mouth, and said.
"Master, where are you going? Can you take me there? "Li Manman really wants to go with his master, but he goes to the rivers and lakes.
"No, you haven't graduated yet!" Mei Qingye refused at all, "This time it's a small gathering in the martial arts, it's in Zidu Mountain, and it will take about half a month." Don't be lazy in my absence, if you behave well, I'll teach you eight knives when you come back! ”
"Really! Master, you're so good! Li Manman jumped up happily, since the last time he saw the master practice the Eight Chopping Knife Technique, Li Manman was fascinated, and he wanted to learn, but the master said that she had not laid a good foundation and could not learn it for the time being.
"But I'll come back to check your progress, if you don't qualify, not only will you not be able to learn the Eight Chopping Knife, but you will have to add an hour of wooden stakes every day!" Mei Qingye poured cold water on the excited apprentice.
"Don't worry, master! I'm sure you'll be impressed. Li Manman said confidently.
"Okay, I'll wait. It's getting late, it's time for you to go home! "Mei Qingye is right, I can't find Li Manman in the north, and I gave an eviction order.
"Got it! Goodbye, master! Li Manman lifted the small basket he was using to cover for digging shepherd's cabbage, and ran happily into the rape field. Li Manman has grown this year, about 1.6 meters, but as soon as he walked into the rape field, he was still submerged by the sea of golden flowers.
flashed into the space, dug up half a basket of shepherd's cabbage in the space, put it in the basket, took a bath in the hot spring, lay on the bamboo chair to dry his hair, ate an apple, and came out slowly.
There is no one at home, and my mother is still busy in Baitangji, and Taotao is in kindergarten; Dad has been busy in the contracted land in Chengguan Town since the Chinese New Year.
Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Tianxue and Zhou Yuxin had already contracted the land, a total of 30 acres, plus a pond of 156 acres. It happened to be near the Huai River embankment, this place was later developed and became a relatively prosperous commercial center in Taihuang County, so when the contract was signed, Li Manman pestered his father and uncle, asking them to add a clause to the contract, if these lands were to be sold in Chengguan Town, Li Tianxue and Zhou Yuxin had the right of first refusal. Although I don't know what Li Manman is going to do, and I can't figure out how this state-owned land can be bought and sold, but I can't be entangled, and the two uncles who love the child agree. The day he got the contract, Li Manman couldn't close his mouth when he saw this clause in the contract.
Uncle Lang and his wife first drained the water in the pond and threw the silt onto the shore for fertilizing the fields. Then put clean water, plant aquatic plants, and raise fish fry. He also planted trees on the edge of the pond, adopted Li Manman's opinion, and mainly planted fruit trees, in addition to peach and pear trees, but also planted cherry trees. Thirty acres of land, first planted twenty acres of common vegetables, short maturity time, soon able to have income, the other ten acres, divided into three acres of grapes, three acres of fruit trees, the remaining four acres of three greenhouses, one of which is planted with strawberries, which is recommended by Li Tianxue's classmates in the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, Li Manman also raised his hands in favor, one is planted with watermelons, one is planted with cucumbers, tomatoes and other vegetables. In addition, because of the old uncle's face, Chengguan Town also sent another piece of seven or eight points of land, and Uncle Lang and his uncle were going to build a house on that piece of land to open a farmhouse restaurant, but now they have built a small earthen house for sleeping at night.
didn't enter the house, Li Manman ran directly to his grandmother's house, sent half a basket of shepherd's cabbage to his grandmother, and asked to eat shepherd's cabbage dumplings.
Grandma Li just coaxed Xiao Yongzi to sleep, looked at her eldest granddaughter looking at herself like a puppy, nodded Li Manman's forehead angrily, and said, "Bag, give you a bag!" ”
Li Manman rubbed his head, climbed onto the bed with a smile, stood up and took down the snack bag that his grandmother had dropped on the beam of the house, and jumped out of bed from the chicken cake inside.
Grandma Li shook her head: "Be careful, don't wake up your brother!" Crying, you coax! ”
"I don't want it!" Li Manman made a face at his grandmother and ran away.
Back at his home, Li Manman closed the door and entered the space, breathed the fragrance of flowers in the space, and began to clean up those seedlings, these are the saplings that Li Manman was going to mix with his father, wanting to see if the trees in the space would have an advantage over the trees outside, if so, she was ready to use the seeds of the space in her own contracted land.
"Da Hong, are you home?" As soon as Li Manman came out of the space, he heard his fourth cousin calling out to him at the door.
"What's the matter?" Li Manman's book came out of the house in disguise.
"There's an essay contest in the county, and I want you to participate!" Li Yuanwen said straight to the point.
"When? Where is it? Li Manman is also not polite.
"The day after tomorrow, in the experimental elementary school! Oh yes, there's a math contest in a week, and you'll have to go too! Li Yuanwen informed.
"Got it, the day after tomorrow, do I go by myself, or go with the school? Math competition, is it just me, or is there anyone else? Li Manman thinks it's better to ask clearly.
"At seven o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, I'll come to you! You come with me. Mathematics competition, in addition to you, there are also Hou Bo and Li Yuanxin. Li Yuanwen looked at the little girl in front of him, she has been fast enough this year and has grown into a big girl, "Uncle I haven't come back yet?" ”
"No, I'm going to check it out!" Li Manman shook his head.
Li Yuanwen was amused by his cousin's old-fashioned appearance: "Yes, you must go and see it, you can't do without you!" ”
Li Man looked at his cousin with a wide frown, until he laughed at himself for making trouble: "I have a lot of good ideas!" What are you laughing at! Okay, I got it, you're good to go! ”
"Yo, little girl, your temper is big enough! I'll go, I don't need you to rush! Hey, by the way, there's no one at home, what do you eat for lunch? It just so happens that your fourth sister-in-law burned fish at noon, come to my house to eat it! Li Yuanwen was not angry with his cousin, after all, he grew up in front of his eyes, he was as old as his son, what was there to be angry about, and seeing that the adults in his family were not there, he warmly invited.
"Don't go, my milk wrapped the dumplings, I want to eat the dumplings!" Li Manman refused.
"Okay, got it. I'm home. You are home alone, don't go to the water's edge! Li Yuanwen instructed and turned around and went back to his home.
