The sunshine of spring is not as cold as winter, nor as hot as summer, and it is warm and warm, shining on the body that has just taken off the cotton clothes. That kind of burdensome season, suddenly a relaxed lightness, and being surrounded by such a warm ocean, makes people feel so comfortable that they can't help but feel light under their feet and almost want to dance.

However, this warmth disappeared as we got closer to the depths of the woods, because the surrounding trees were so dense that the sun was blocked, and because there was a small river not far away. The river flows down from the mountain, and the water is as smooth as brocade and beautiful.

And the river has been flowing down the bank, far away from the village and converging with other currents to form a lake, very large, from a distance like a piece of fine emerald embedded in the heaven and earth, and surrounded by mountains on all sides, more like an uncarved ring, natural and simple, beautiful and gratifying.

On the bank of the river, because of the long-term soaking of the lake water and covered with moss, the green oil is very easy to slip, you need to be careful, according to the memory to find a big stone, leaning out for a long time and finally found a protrusion, hooked a net bag, pulled out to see that there are a total of three fish inside, fat round body, hard to open and close the mouth and gills, the appearance of jumping around is happy little baby.

Although the shade of the tree shines on the water and loves the sunshine, but there is no warmth of the sun, and because of the season, the lake is cold, and the two pairs of small hands are frozen red and a little stiff, even so, the smile at the corner of the girl's mouth is still undiminished, and the grinning arc is like a quarter moon, and the sharp tiger teeth and small pink tongue are faintly visible.

Hurriedly put all the fish into the back basket she brought with her, and the girl straightened up and ran home quickly.

At this time, it was almost noon, and when I stood at the entrance of the village, I saw the curling smoke rising from the blue roofs of the village, which dissipated in the spring breeze after rising straight up.

The girl doll looked at it from afar, and finally saw the smoke in the direction of her own house, and the corners of her mouth once again showed her little tiger teeth, and the wind was blowing under her feet, stepping on the dirt road in the countryside, raising dust and startling dogs barking all the way.

"Mother! Mother! ”

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, the girl screamed loudly, some of the yellowed hair was tied into two small braids, trembling with the bumps of the body, and the long head rope rose with the wind, like a ribbon at the end of the paper kite in the sky, and finally fell down when she threw herself into the woman's arms.

Hugging her arms heavily, the woman reached out and touched the sweat on her head, and couldn't help but say angrily: "The girl's family, running like a wild monkey, look at it like this, which family dares to want you in the future!" ”

The tip of the nose sniffed the faint smell of smoke left on the woman's body, and the big palm on the back of the head stroked the hair so gentle and warm, knowing in my heart that the mother was just joking that she was not angry, and sure enough, when she looked up and saw the doting on herself brewing in her eyes, she was even more bold in her heart and refused to get up in the woman's arms.

After all, it's been a long time since I've smelled my mother's family.

"Mother, mother, I caught three fish today! And all of them are fat-headed green carp! ”

Although the long bangs on the forehead cover the eyebrows, but the two small dimples on the cheeks of the baby fat are full of honey, and the light yì makes people feel her happiness, and the raised little face is still sticky with the dust that has been accidentally rubbed, and the little tiger teeth exposed at the corners of the mouth are like a little flower cat that pleases the owner, begging to pet, begging to be smooth, and begging to praise.

"The fish meat in this early spring is the most fatty, take advantage of the freshness to let Daddy go to the town to sell two, our family left one, it happens that today is Daddy's birthday, how about my mother make a good chopped pepper fish head for Daddy?"

In the end, the doll suddenly covered her mouth as if she had said something wrong and looked at the woman carefully, and sure enough, she saw the woman frowning and looking at the mountains in the distance, and her expression could not hide her worry.

"I don't know if your father has found the second baby, the mountain is so dangerous, and it rains again, what if something happens to her so young?"

"Mother?" Gently tugging at the hem of her mother's clothes, the doll tried to pull back the woman's attention, rubbing her calloused hands with her little face because of her frequent housework, and comforting her thin voice softly.

"Don't worry about my mother, my sister ran out not long after my father chased after her, plus my father went up the mountain to hunt all the year round, and I am familiar with the situation in the mountains and will definitely be able to find my sister, and now I haven't gone down the mountain for a long time, I think it should be blocked by the mountain rain so it was delayed, and there will be nothing wrong. It's a good day, my father and sister will not be able to go down the mountain until about noon, and we must be hungry and uncomfortable, so we should prepare a meal for them early. ”

Although these few words cannot sweep away all the worries in my heart, they are also much more reassuring. The woman couldn't help but smile, touched the girl's head and told her to put the fish in the bamboo basket in the basin and raise it, and it should be eaten and sold and had to wait for some time.

Seeing her daughter bouncing away, the woman couldn't help but feel worried again.

"Obviously, the second baby was so well-behaved before"

The girl placed all the fish in the basin, and then sat obediently on a high stool and watched the stove to boil water.

The firewood was burning in the furnace, and the vigorous flames burned the dry pond very brightly, reflecting the girl's face dyed red, listening to the crackling sound, I only felt very calm in my heart.

Such a familiar feeling, as if there had been such a life before?

Vaguely hazy, the paddy field rice seedlings in front of the house are green, the peach tree next to the window knows that the chirping is not stopped, who Xiaolang quietly lies in the window to peek, calls friends out, shepherds fish, plays the flute and picks flowers, it is the time when the two childhood sweethearts have no suspicion.

And then what? And then what? Why do you have no memory? Blank in mind and can't think of anything?

"Xiao Shui, Xiao Shui?"

The woman's worried voice sounded in her ears, and she raised her eyes to see stacks of firewood and a swarthy stove, and carefully recognized it as the kitchen at home.

Closing his eyes and relieving his mind, he tried to suppress the tingling pain in his head that was not a feeling of nausea, looked at the woman's worried appearance, shook his head, scratched his itchy nose, covered his mouth and coughed lightly.

"Xiaoshui, why are you crying? But where is the discomfort? ”

"It's okay mother, it's just that the chopped pepper is so spicy that some people are uncomfortable with their eyes, so they will cry and don't worry."

The woman was relieved and touched her little head helplessly. "If it's uncomfortable, go out and wash your face, don't come in again, I don't need your help here."

The doll went out as she said, and happened to bump into a few people who were about to enter the yard.
