"Brother, brother. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "The tears that Qiu Zhu finally stopped began to flow wantonly again.

"Sister?!" Twilight Bai and Yun Zheng looked at the beautiful woman behind Rong Qingjiu in a daze, and shouted out loud.

Rong Qingjiu didn't want to see such a picture of brother and sister affection anymore, so he turned around and went downstairs.

"Little Er, is there anything else interesting in Lincheng?" Stopping Xiao Er, who happened to be passing by, Rong Qingjiu asked.

"Yo, it's a girl, this is near the city, although it is a remote mountainous area, but there are a lot of fun places." Seeing that it was Rong Qingjiu who gave him a lot of reward money yesterday, Xiao Er's tone was very warm, "Not to mention the chrysanthemum garden in the northwest direction that I mentioned to the girl yesterday, there are also a lot of delicious and fun things on the mountain in the south, there are no less than ten kinds of wild tree fruits, and there are streams under the mountain where you can catch fish and eat." If the girl wants to be closer, there is a downtown two streets next to the inn, and it is also a good place for pastime on weekdays. ”

"Little Er, let's have a pot of wine!" The man at the window table was hungry early in the morning.

"It's coming!" Xiao Er responded to the table, and then said to Rong Qingjiu, "However, girl, don't go to the mountains alone, although Orion said that there are no fierce beasts, but you are not afraid of 10,000 just in case." With that, he turned around and went to the counter to get a drink.

It's just that Rong Qingjiu has long put his mind on the wild tree fruit, and Xiao Er's kind reminder naturally didn't fall into his ears. The high safety factor of the mountains and forests in the previous life also gave Rong Qingjiu a certain misleading.

Rong Qingjiu walked in the downtown area, planning to buy a slingshot, and it would be easy to get the fruit in the forest when the time came. Thinking of the dozen or so wild fruits on the mountains to the south, I quickened the pace of searching for the slingshot.

"Little brother, how much does this slingshot cost?" Picking a handful that was pleasing to the eye, Rong Qingjiu asked the boy in front of him who was about seven years old.

The city is not big, but there are a lot of strange things. It's morning, it's quite deserted, and it's easy to find something.

"Five cents, plus one penny, you can also buy a bag of stone beads that I carefully selected!" Seeing that someone was patronizing his business in the morning, the dirty little face of the seven-year-old boy looked happy and proud.

"Little brother, you are made of wood, the wood in the mountains doesn't cost money, you sell it to me at such an expensive price, I don't want it." Rong Qingjiu didn't care about the money, but it was not good to be wronged by a little kid.

"This is the best wood in the mountains, it won't break!" Seeing that Rong Qingjiu didn't want to buy it, the boy hurriedly said, "And my craftsmanship is good, and the stone beads I shoot are full of strength." ”

In his previous life, Grandpa Rong taught Rong Qingjiu to play with slingshots, and naturally knew that the slingshots in front of him were all of the highest quality, and even the stone beads next to them were just the right size, round and round, "That's also wood, I don't want it." "I'm going to get up.

"You, you're like this, you don't buy it after asking! Big deal, I'll give you another bag of stone beads! Seeing that Rong Qingjiu was leaving, the boy became even more anxious, and his dark eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

"Do you have to buy it if you ask, but since you are so sincere, I'll buy it, No, it's six cents." No longer teasing the ragged and hungry boy in front of him, Rong Qingjiu counted out six cents from the money bag and gave it to him, "If the boy has tears, he won't flick, but I won't buy anything, and you will drop the golden beans." ”

"I didn't drop the golden beans!" wiped his face indiscriminately, quickly took the money in Rong Qingjiu's hand, and handed over the selected slingshot and two bags of stone beads on the stall, "No, your things." ”

Taking the slingshot in the boy's hand, Rong Qingjiu suddenly had another idea, there are locals with him, whether it is to find wild fruit trees or introduce wild fruit trees, it is more convenient, "Are you familiar with the mountains and forests in the south?" ”

"Of course! That's where the wood for my slingshot comes from. At the mention of this boy, there were tears in his eyes, and his face was full of pride.

"I'll give you a tael of silver, can you accompany me to the mountains to the south?" Sure enough, it's still a child, so easy to be happy.

The boy was stunned, "One, one or two pieces of silver?!" I'll go! I'll go! "Could it be that this young lady in front of her is so stupid, one or two pieces of silver can be exchanged for a penny, which is a thousand Wen, how many slingshots is this!" Uncle Li, keep the stall for me first. After finishing speaking, he handed over the stall roll.

"Okay, boy." Uncle Li replied with a smile. This child has a hard life, he was born with a dead mother, and his father died at the age of five, and his relatives refused to accept him. After becoming an orphan, I often have no food, and I still smile and smile on weekdays, but this heart is bitter.

"What's your name?" Rong Qingjiu looked at the boy who quickly followed him and asked.

Thinking that he could receive a tael of silver today, the boy couldn't help but be elated, "Little sister, my name is Ah Tong, what are you going to the mountains for?" ”

"Ah Tong, I'm going to find a wild fruit tree, do you know if it's public or unattended?" Rong Qingjiu asked while looking at the contents of the remaining stalls.

"No one cares, in fact, everyone doesn't like to eat wild fruits, sour and astringent, only some pregnant women can eat them. However, there are also children who fight tooth sacrifices, but there are not many of them. Ah Tong replied happily.

"That's right." Sour and astringent, it is a good material for making wild fruit wine. In fact, most of the fruits can be made into wine, sweet fruit wine made of sweet fruits is liked by children, and spirits made of sour and astringent fruits are more charming in taste and are more popular with adults. Rong Qingjiu does not expect a single chrysanthemum wine to conquer the market.

Lincheng is not very big, so the road from the downtown to the south woods is not far, Rong Qingjiu and Ah Tong arrived before noon. Eating the snacks he bought on the road just now, Ah Tong said vaguely to Rong Qingjiu, "Little sister, this is the southern mountain, and you can see the fruit trees immediately when you go up from here, should we take a break?" ”

"Well, let's take a break by the creek over here." Rong Qingjiu picked a clean stone and sat down, "Ah Tong, you come and sit too, I still have mung bean cake to eat here." As he spoke, he took out an oil-paper-wrapped cigarette box-sized thing from his previous life, and the faint aroma of mung beans hit him.

"Mung bean cake? This is a birthday gift that my dad would have bought for me on his birthday when he was still alive," Ah Tong muttered.

Rong Qingjiu was silent, "Eat." ”

Ah Tong didn't answer, opened the oil-wrapped cloth, and only stuffed the mung bean cake into his mouth vigorously, and even picked up the mung bean cake residue that fell on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, refusing to waste a little.

Rong Qingjiu raised his hand and patted away the broken slag, "It's all over." This sentence told Ah Tong and told himself.

"There is no past! There is no past! How can you get by!! Ah Tong was stunned for a moment, and instantly threw away the mung bean cake in his hand like a madman, and roared at Rong Qingjiu. Sad, yet hopeless. There is no bottom in the dark eyes, only the poignant fragility remains.

"No, it's all over, we're all still alive, and life will get better and better." Rong Qingjiu held Ah Tong's hand tightly for a long time before he said a word.

In fact, even she can't convince herself.
