Mobile reading

There was a man and a woman, who looked like a pair of brothers and sisters, the eldest looked seven or eight years old, and the younger one was estimated to be about the same age as Gao Li. Pinshu.com

Li Haitang smiled at the two, and the little girl immediately replied with a shy smile.

The boy on the side immediately led her behind him, looking at them vigilantly, this move couldn't help but make Haitang think of Zhou Li, obviously not very old, but very old, I couldn't help but think, are the children now so precocious?

Because Li Haitang and the others were sitting on the path, they happened to block their way, and the two just looked at them and didn't dare to step forward.

Thinking that since this is the territory of Luofeng Village, these two children should be the villagers of Luofeng Village, Haitang smiled and beckoned to the little girl.

The little girl smiled shyly, hiding behind her brother and not daring to speak.

The boy saw Begonia beckoning, and his little face showed a vigilance that did not belong to his age.

"Who are you? Why is it here? ”

Li Haitang said with a smile: "You are from Luofeng Village, right?" We came from the other side of the mountain and want to go to Luofeng Village, can you take us there? ”

These two children are locals, so maybe they can ask what the situation is, and it will save a lot of trouble with them.

Li Haitang took out a copper coin from his sleeve and said with a smile: "As long as you bring us to the village, this copper coin is yours." ”

These two children know that life is in distress by looking at the clothes on their bodies, and this hanging copper coin should be a big temptation for them.

What Li Haitang didn't expect was that although a trace of longing flashed in the child's eyes when he saw the copper coin, it was only a moment before he regained his clarity.

"You haven't answered me yet, who are you, and what are you doing in our village?"

This kid is really not simple, he can actually resist the temptation of copper coins to him.

Li Haitang felt amused and asked with a smile: "Then guess who we are?" ”

Gao Degui looked at Li Haitang with some puzzlement, and didn't understand why she asked again, where could this child guess their identity when they met for the first time?

The boy tilted his head and thought about it, and in an instant he understood something, and moved the basket behind him with a blushing face.

The girl behind the boy jumped out from behind her brother, stared at the pair of big round eyes, and said with a surprised face: "You just said that you are from the other side of the mountain, are you the owner of the orchard?" Did you come to Luofeng Village because we picked your fruit and came to trouble us? ”

When the little boy heard his sister say this, his face was even more embarrassed, and he hurriedly shoved his sister behind him again.

Li Haitang said with a smile: "What a smart little sister, can you tell me your name?" ”

"Xiaohua, my name is Qian Xiaohua, my brother's name is Qian Jiang, sister, what's your name?"

Xiaohua, Li Haitang suddenly thought of Zhao Xiaohua in Lijia Village, and was stunned for a moment.

This can be regarded as a kind of fate, I didn't expect to meet a little girl named Xiaohua here, when she was so big, she often went into the mountains with Xiaohua to find wild vegetables to eat.

"Xiaohua is so good, my sister's name is Li Haitang."

"Sister Begonia."

Qian Jiang blushed and looked at the woman in front of him, in the past few years, their life has not been easy, so he often takes his sister to the orchard over there to pick some fruit to satisfy hunger.

Luofeng Village is a typical tenant village, and all the land in the village is owned by the Feng family.

What Li Haitang didn't know was that this Feng family was directly opposite Haitang Garden, a neighbor.

Speaking of this Feng family, the most famous thing is not rich, but mean, the Feng family was just a small landlord in Luofeng Village, although now it is not as good as the Yun family, the Jin family, the Gu family, but it is also ranked in this Tongcheng.

The Feng family made a fortune by exploiting the grain and rice of the tenants, and the whole Tongcheng knows it, but the son of the head of the Feng family is now the county commander of Tongcheng, as long as the Feng family doesn't go too far, who dares to say more?

A few years ago, when my father and mother were still there, the family tenanted ten acres of land of the Feng family, and I was able to live, but the year before last, my father died of illness, and my mother couldn't afford to be sick.

Fortunately, the two children were hardworking and often went up to the mountains to pick some fruits and wild vegetables, and although the family was poor, they did not starve to death.

It's just that the wild fruits on the mountain are also limited, and sometimes, the two of them will go home empty-handed, in which case, the family of three will starve.

Later, someone in the village said that there was an orchard on the other side of the mountain, and there were many delicious fruits in it, and when the fruits were ripe, no one came to pick them, and many of them fell on the ground.

Since then, some people who have not eaten have often gone over there to pick some fruit to eat.

At the beginning, Qian Jiang was conflicted in his heart, and his heart refused to pick the fruit.

For the fruit tree is the owner at first sight, and although no one picks it, it is someone else's, and his present behavior is that of a thief.

But looking at his mother lying on the hospital bed and his emaciated sister, he finally broke through the psychological defense line and did what he despised.

Moreover, there are one and there are two, and slowly, he found that no one cared about those fruits, so he was relieved to pick them boldly.

But he didn't expect to meet the owner of the orchard today, which made him very ashamed in his heart, and what made him ashamed was that his sister actually exposed their behavior in public, which made him, who has always loved face, want to make a hole in the ground at this moment.

Li Haitang naturally saw Qian Jiang's embarrassment, and said to Qian Xiaohua with a smile: "Who told you that I was going to trouble you?" Sister Begonia is here to ask you for a favor. ”

Qian Xiaohua's eyes widened, and her face was incredible: "What can we do to help my sister?" ”

"Well, I'll wait until you take me to the village first, I just don't know if Sister Xiaohua is willing to help my sister?"

Xiaohua said with a smile: "Xiaohua has eaten a lot of delicious fruits from my sister, and I will definitely help my sister." ”

After speaking, he stepped forward, took Li Haitang's hand and walked up the mountain.

Qian Xiaohua is a cheerful child, along the way, Qian Xiaohua is chattering non-stop, Li Haitang found that Qian Jiang has not spoken, lowered his head, and does not know what he is thinking.

It wasn't until they were almost in the village that they spoke: "Well, I'm sorry, the fruit picking is also to feed my mother and sister, don't mind, I will definitely return the fruit money to you in the future." ”

Li Haitang glanced at him and said with a smile: "I have eaten everything, so why bother to say that it is someone else's food?" However, since the fruit has already been eaten, I can't tell you to spit it out again, so I'll wait for you to speak and pay me back the money. ”
