Chapter 12: The Story of Li Dajiang
Li Changliang's period of reflection has ended, and he reluctantly returns to school.
"How do you talk to your brother Qing? A girl's house, she doesn't pay attention all day long, no wonder she can't find her mother-in-law's house!"
Li Dajiang walked a little slowly, a few steps behind Li Hongdou, looked serious, frowned, and said in a lesson-telling tone.
Li Hongdou's mother died of illness a few years after giving birth to Li Changliang, and it was not easy for Li Dajiang to pull the two children alone, and he usually had strict requirements for the children.
"Second uncle, it's okay, red beans are playing with me! I found some very sweet mountain spring water in the mountains, and I was about to send it to you to taste. ”
Li Changqing knows Li Hongdou's character very well, and he doesn't care, but enjoys the bickering between brother and sister.
"If you want to talk about mountain spring water, I used to go to Tianxiong Mountain with the logging team when I was young, it was a real deep mountain and old forest, and once I found a stone spring, and the water was really sweet!"
Li Dajiang couldn't help but swallow his saliva as he spoke, with a happy smile on his face.
"Hey!"
Li Dahai shook his head and sighed.
Li Changqing had heard the story about Li Dajiang in Tianxiong Mountain, and the beautiful and romantic love between him and the inspector Xie Yao was widely spread among the older generation.
Even after more than ten years, Li Dajiang still has not been able to get out of the shadow of the past.
"His second uncle, Qingwa's water is really delicious, I just drank several caps in a row, and my tongue almost swallowed it!"
Liu Cui'e took out a few cups from a wooden tray, said with an exaggerated smile, and then gave each person a cup.
"Auntie, you really can't drink water indiscriminately, at least you have to boil it!"
Li Hongdou pulled Liu Cui'e and said very seriously.
"It's okay for people in the mountains to drink mountain spring water, bring me a cup!", Li Dajiang handed the cup to Li Changqing and said.
"Pour me a glass too, and see what the water tastes like that your mother's tongue almost swallowed?", Li Dahai also said.
"Great!"
Li Changqing replied and gave Li Dajiang and Li Dahai a drink.
"Huh?"
Li Dajiang's face was very strange.
"Dad, I told you not to drink it, now your stomach is upset, I'll wait to go to the health center to get you some anti-inflammatory medicine." ”
Li Hongdou had such an expression and said to Li Dajiang.
"No, this water is weird! I just drank a glass, and the fatigue on my body was swept away!", Li Dajiang said in deep thought.
"Yes, my stomach is down, and the soreness in my shoulders has decreased a lot!"
Li Dahai moved his shoulders, feeling like the stones pressed on it were removed, and the whole person was much more relaxed.
"Bring me another drink, I just didn't taste anything!"
"Give me another drink!"
Li Dajiang and Li Dahai both stretched out their cups, and Li Changqing poured them full.
"Tsk, that's really good! The stone spring water in Tianxiong Mountain is not as good as this water, Qingwa, you found it on Zhongnan Mountain?"
Li Dajiang was refreshed after drinking, with a surprised expression on his face, and asked Li Changqing suspiciously.
"Yes, but the mountain spring will be cut off after I take it, and I will go to see it every day in the future!", Li Changqing was afraid that they would continue to dig deeper and make up the Tao.
"Uncle, Dad, you won't be Brother Qing's trust, this expression is too exaggerated!"
Li Hongdou knew the significance of Tianxiong Mountain to Li Dajiang, and now Li Dajiang actually admitted that the stone spring water on Tianxiong Mountain was not as delicious as the mountain spring water in Li Changqing's boiling water bottle, and Li Dahai's shoulder pain was caused by rheumatism, and he tried various methods without much effect, how could it be relieved by a cup of mountain spring water?
"Girl, did your uncle and father lie to you, don't you know if you have a drink by yourself?", Liu Cui'e patted Li Hongdou's hand and said.
"Okay, just give me a small glass!"
Li Hongdou thought that he would go back to take some medicine after drinking, and it should be fine, so he reluctantly agreed.
"Hmph, this is what you said, just a small cup!", Li Changqing said a small cup into Li Hongdou's cup.
"Of course, if it weren't for the sake of helping you test the poison, I wouldn't want to drink it!", Li Hongdou still said very arrogantly.
"Brother Qing, you can't be sugar water, how can it be so sweet! It's not right, it's still different from the sweetness of sugar water!"
"Here, fill me up!"
Li Hongdou went down with half a cup of water, his face and attitude changed greatly, and even the watermark at the corner of his mouth was licked clean, and he stretched out the cup to Li Changqing and said.
Just a few seconds ago, you yourself said that you only need a small cup, or you reluctantly drank it to help us test the poison, and now that it has been confirmed that it is not poisonous, you don't need to drink it again!"
Li Changqing protected the boiling water bottle tightly, beware of Li Hongdou reaching out to grab it, and said to Li Hongdou sideways.
"Brother Qing, my own brother, it's okay if I'm wrong! You don't care about the villain, just forgive me, an ignorant weak woman!"
Li Hongdou pounced on Li Changqing and pretended to be very pitiful and said.
"I really can't take you, there should only be the last two cups left, and they'll be given to you!"
Li Changqing directly handed the entire boiling water bottle to Li Hongdou and said with a smile.
"Qingwa, you go to that mountain spring every day in the future, if you drink it every day, maybe your father's rheumatism can be cured!", Liu Cui'e said.
"Well, I will! But it's best not to spread the word about this, after all, there are so many mountain springs, and it won't be easy for everyone to come and ask for it!"
Li Changqing nodded, even he didn't expect that the spiritual water in the spirit gathering pot would have an effect on the treatment of joint rheumatism, and told everyone.
"Qingwa is right, you can't talk about this matter outside!", Li Dahai said very agreeably.
After Li Hongdou finished eating, he kept pestering Li Changqing to ask about how to find the mountain spring, if he wasn't afraid of the dark, I was afraid that he would have to drag Li Changqing to Zhong Nanshan to find the mountain spring.
Li Changqing sent Li Hongdou away with difficulty and began to read at night, and the progress of "Hundred Family Names" was faster than planned.
Since Li Changqing experienced the Confucian Qi infusion, he didn't need to rest much, and he was full of energy every day.
As soon as the day dawned, I got up and went to the bottom pond of the pot, first wielding a hoe to open up the wasteland and consolidate last night's harvest.
When the sky was fully bright, Li Changqing was surprised to find that the leaves of the three peach trees were much greener than before, as if they had been washed by rain.
Li Changqing picked a peach and tasted it, but it was still hard, bitter and astringent!
"If you insist on watering every day in the future, will it improve the taste of the peach?"
Liu Cui'e shouted to eat on the top of the back mountain, and Li Changqing went back first for the time being.
"Qingwa, don't go to Zhong Nanshan today!Clean up after eating, and when you come back, your aunt will bring her niece over to play!", Liu Cui'e said with a winkled eyebrow.
"Change your clothes and pants, it's all dirt!", Li Dahai looked Li Changqing up and down all over his body.
"Hey, got it!"
Li Changqing knew that sooner or later there would have to be such a day, so he replied helplessly.
