21. Strange things
Tong Xue secretly enjoyed it for several days, and the well water in this space was really powerful.
The only thing that is a little annoying is that the water in the space for human consumption should be distinguished from the water that is watered and fed to the chickens. Tong Xue felt troublesome and thought, otherwise the family would also use diluted well water for food and drink, but she had the luxury of expecting that this well water would help Xu Wenda's illness, so she kept hesitantly dragging it.
Until something happened that Tong Xue couldn't control.
Because Xu Wenyuan was going to the town the next day, Tong Xue had to make tofu in advance, so he thought about throwing the beans up first, and just saw Xu Wenyuan in the yard, Tong Xue commanded, "Wenyuan, bring in the bucket of water on the left, I have to soak some beans." ”
The water was originally prepared by Tong Xue to make tofu in advance, one bucket was used to soak beans, and the other bucket was used to water vegetables, but Tong Xue forgot that she and Xu Wenyuan were face to face because she was lazy for a while, and her left side happened to be Xu Wenyuan's right.
When he didn't get Tong Xue's clear instructions, Xu Wenyuan naturally chose the bucket on his left, anyway, in his opinion, there was no difference between the two buckets of water.
The barrels of the Xu family are almost exactly the same, even if they are different, Tong Xue rarely cares about this detail, Xu Wenyuan brought it in, and she naturally used it.
As for the bucket of water in the yard, Tong Xue took it to water the vegetable field according to her previous habits, and after the vegetable field was watered, there was still half a bucket of water left, and Tong Xue directly poured it under the roots of the old willow tree at the door.
Xu Wan saw Tong Xue and said strangely, "Sister-in-law, this tree is going to die, it hasn't slowed down since last winter, and when spring comes, there are few willow branches that sprout, and it can't survive, so you don't have to waste your energy watering." ”
Tong Xue looked up at the bare wicker on the dry trunk, there were only scattered leaves on it, and the few leaves were already yellow, looking precarious, as if they were about to fall at any time, it really seemed to be at the end of life, I hope this water can be of some use to it.
After all, this is a hundred-year-old tree, if it really dies, it is a pity, it is said that this tree is still planted here by the elders of Xu Wenda's grandfather's grandfather's generation.
Since Tong Xue knew that the space well water was of great use to animals and plants, she often used it on her own things, but she was very careful and careful every time, so no one was suspicious.
But she never expected that when she got up the next morning, the willow tree at the door came to life, and it was not at all the same as yesterday's death-like appearance, new shoots were drawn on each branch, the village where the catkins were flying was everywhere, and the courtyard of the Xu family was also covered with a thick layer.
God knows that this is the harvest season, and the grain is about to be harvested, and at this time the willow trees are flying, isn't this a living hell?
Tong Xue's whole person was not good, she immediately rushed to the vegetable field, and found that the situation in the vegetable field was also a little out of control, Tong Xue only felt that it was dark in front of her, it was over, it was a big deal, it must have been a mistake when she asked Xu Wenyuan to help yesterday, she should not be caught and burned to death.
Scratching her hair irritably, she didn't know what to do for a while, but at this moment, Xu Wan pounced in front of Tong Xue, "Sister-in-law, something is wrong, the willow tree at the door is alive." ”
Xu Wan inadvertently saw her vegetable patch, and exclaimed again, "Oh my God, what happened last night, why did they all become like this." ”
Originally, the beans and eggplants they had just picked yesterday were full of seedlings today, and they blossomed and bore fruit overnight, which could not be more amazing.
Xu Wan is a little timid, although the situation is a bit gratifying, and this dish can be eaten for a long time, but the current situation is still a little weird.
Xu Wan came to Tong Xue's side and grabbed Tong Xue's arm tightly, "Sister-in-law, do you say that what we see is true, we won't provoke something that shouldn't be provoked." ”
At this time, Xu Wenyuan also got up, and when he saw the tree at the door, he was screaming again, and he called it hell.
It was noisy outside, even the sick Xu Wenda was woken up, put on a coat, and walked out weakly, Tong Xue felt that Xu Wenda had a peculiar temperament, even if he was weak and weak, he was weak to speak, but standing there, he was still full of the momentum of the head of the family, "Early in the morning, what happened?" ”
Xu Wenyuan was the first to react, "Big brother, something strange happened, the old willow tree outside our house came to life, and the vegetables in the yard blossomed and bore fruit overnight, hell." ”
Xu Wenda only glanced at Xu Wenda, and Xu Wenyuan, who was still frizzy one moment, was immediately silent the next moment, and stood there straight, as if it was the usual morning, and nothing strange happened.
Xu Wenda coughed lightly twice, and then said sternly, "Zi Bu is strange and confused, and he looks like he is flustered." ”
Although Xu Wenda saw the catkins all over the ground, he was a little weak in what he said, but no one else noticed it.
Xu Wenda glanced in the direction of Tong Xue, and didn't know why, Xu Wenda subconsciously thought of Tong Xue about this groundless thing.
However, Tong Xue was racking her brains at the moment thinking about how to control this out-of-control scene within a certain range, so when she met Xu Wenda's gaze, there was no trace of dodging at all.
Xu Wenda secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want this strange thing to have anything to do with Tong Xue, if he had a choice, he hoped that Tong Xue could live a peaceful and stable life with his younger brothers and sisters, instead of getting involved in anything else that would bring danger.
Tong Xue thought about it for a long time, but she didn't come up with a solution, the vegetable patch in the yard could still be covered, after all, no one could see it, but the willow trees outside were not good.
Although the Xu family is a relatively remote place, it is not uninhabited around, and this catkins are floating everywhere, how could the big guys not even notice it.
Tong Xue frowned and looked up at Xu Wenda, "What do you say about this?" ”
The willow tree grows tall, and the hanging branches float in from outside the yard, Xu Wenda looked up at the willow tree outside the courtyard, and was silent for a long time before he said calmly, "What should you do on weekdays, just do it, just say that the sky is auspicious, and the dead wood is spring, what a good omen, I can appear in this home, I am afraid that some people will regret their intestines." ”
Tong Xue was puzzled for a moment, "Can this be believed?" ”
Xu Wenda smiled mockingly, "Just a stinky Taoist priest's words, saying that Wenzhao and their lives are hard, and the people in the village can do things so desperately, this dead tree came back to life overnight, everyone can see it, what do they not believe." It just so happens that today is Wen Zhao and Jing'er's birthday, isn't that more convincing? ”
"Their birthdays today?" Tong Xue was about to ask why no one had told her, but suddenly remembered that the twins' birthdays were their mother's death date, so she swallowed the words back.
