Chapter 1 The Little Girl in the Little River Courtyard

"A little bee, fly into the flowers, fly, fly.

Two little rats, run to the granary, eat, eat.

Three little cats, go catch the little mouse, chase, chase.

Four little flower dogs, go find the little flower cat, play, play.

Five little goats, climb up the hillside, climb, climb.

Six ducklings, jumping into the water, swimming, swimming.

Seven little larks, standing on the branches, singing, singing.

Eight little peacocks, dressed in flowers, beautiful, beautiful.

Nine little white rabbits, pricking up their long ears, jumping, jumping.

Ten children, hand in hand, laughing, happy. ”

The lovely song spread far away, floating in the fields and echoing in the mountain streams.

By a clear river, a little girl about three or four years old in coarse cloth clothes was playing alone with her trouser legs rolled up and her bare white little feet. From time to time, the little girl slapped the water with her two little feet, splashing one after another, and the ripples spread out in all directions.

Every time the little girl slapped the water with her little feet, she would tilt her little head and hum a beautiful and cute ballad, followed by a series of crisp laughter. The sound of laughter is like a heavenly sound.

The laughter seems to have a strange charm, which makes people be washed from the inside out, and all negative emotions are removed.

The little girl's delicate little face is like a porcelain doll, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and it is cute. Although he wears hand-sewn coarse cloth clothes, he has a natural and refined temperament. It has a different kind of charming charm and is endearing.

On the little girl's shoulder, the white fox, who has always been delicate, is yawning listlessly, looking lethargic and bored.

The little girl picked up a little water splash with her hand and sprinkled it on the top of the white fox's head, which made the white fox shiver and suddenly have energy.

Shaking off the water droplets on his body, the white fox glanced at the little girl resentfully, but it made the little girl who had no heart and lungs laugh even more!

At this moment, a gentle call came from a small courtyard not far away: "Li'er, it's time for lunch......"

The small courtyard is located at the foot of the mountain. Surrounded by mountains and rivers. Although there are only three simple tiled houses. But it's warm and peaceful. The walls of the courtyard were made of adobe and reached only the waist of an adult. The wall is not so much used as a thief as an alternative ornament.

Although it is called a small courtyard, the area of the courtyard is actually not small. It is divided into four parts in an orderly manner.

In front of the hall is a vintage vine. Now. The tender green branches and leaves have long been crawling all over the branches. Shielded from the sun's rays. The bunches of green grapes have also taken shape, and they are full of shelves.

In the remaining three parts, some of them are scattered with more than a dozen fruit trees. There is no shortage of apple trees, pear trees, pomegranate trees, and persimmon trees. Part of it was reclaimed as a vegetable garden, and various vegetables were grown. The last part becomes a small garden. However, although the garden is small but complete, although it is not a precious species, each plant is impregnated with the owner's painstaking efforts, and grows extremely luxuriantly. When it blooms, it will definitely be a beautiful spectacle.

At this moment, three delicate side dishes are placed on the stone table under the grape trellis, exuding an enticing fragrance that makes people salivate. The materials are all taken from their own vegetable garden, absolutely natural and pollution-free products.

A woman dressed in white walked out of the hall, carrying a small flower basket filled with hot steamed buns in one hand and a washed bowl and chopsticks in the other.

The woman wears a clean white handkerchief on her head, exuding a rustic atmosphere unique to a country woman. However, the woman's beautiful face without powder and her bumpy and perfect figure tell her extraordinary. An otherworldly inner temperament overflows, exuding infinite charm.

If a woman changes her clothes and dresses up a little, she is definitely destined to suffer from jealousy!

And it was from the woman's mouth that the call sounded.

By the river, the little girl shook her little feet, put on a pair of hand-sewn embroidered shoes, and jumped back to the courtyard.

When she came to the grape trellis, the little girl first called "Mom" sweetly to the woman, and then sat on the stone bench obediently, blinking her big black eyes and quietly watching the woman busy. She knew that she would only help more and more, so she didn't slap her swollen face and become fat!

And judging by her words and deeds, she is a little lady.

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, leaned over and gently pinched the little girl's fleshy little face, causing the little girl to giggle.

The woman chuckled softly, "Eat!" ”

The little girl just picked up the chopsticks and put them down, glanced at the empty main seat although she also put a pair of chopsticks, and a touch of distressing sadness appeared on her delicate little face, and said quietly: "Mom, when will Dad wake up?" ”

The woman turned her head to look into the upper room, where a man lay quietly on a large bed covered with brocade quilts. The man's breathing was even, but he didn't move like a puppet. The breath of life is abundant, but there is no sense of anger.

A touch of gloom flashed in the woman's eyes, forced a smile to herself, and comforted the little girl: "It's almost ......."

However, the sadness on the little girl's face became more and more intense. Because every time she asked the woman, the woman would prevaricate her with these two words. She knows the way, and maybe the woman doesn't know the answer to the question......

The white fox, who was originally squatting on the little girl's shoulder, stood up and pulled the little girl's black hair with his paws.

The little girl turned her head and saw the white fox gesturing for a while, which looked funny and cute.

An innocent smile appeared on the little girl's face, and she pushed the white fox with her eyebrows, and said softly: "Xiaobai is so good......"

She knew that this was Xiaobai comforting her.

The corners of the woman's lips curled slightly, and a touch of tenderness emerged.

The little girl took a deep breath, smiled, shook her little fist and waved it, as if to cheer herself up, and said crisply: "Come on, come on, come on, come ......on, come

After the little girl finished speaking, she just wanted to pick up the chopsticks, but she felt the white fox on her shoulder pull her hair again. Turning her head, she saw that the white fox was looking at her with a resentful face, and pointed at herself with her little paws from time to time.

The little girl was amused and giggled: "Come on, Xiaobai!" ”

The white fox suddenly changed his resentful appearance and grinned stupidly.

The woman looked at such a warm scene, and she also smiled. picked up the chopsticks and carefully picked up the dish for the little girl.

The little girl swallowed the food in her mouth and asked the woman, "Mom, you said that the union between you and your father is a fatal entanglement, then Li'er wants to know what is fate?" ”

The little girl stared at a pair of big eyes with a look of longing.

The woman took out a handkerchief, carefully wiped the food crumbs at the corner of the little girl's mouth, and then pointed to her heart and laughed softly: "Fate is a person's heart!" ”

The little girl scratched her head and muttered, "Heart? ”

The woman explained softly: "Even if you are reincarnated thousands of times, there will always be one thing that will not change in the slightest, and that is a person's original heart. The heart is a person's truest self and the origin of his destiny. ”

The little girl's eyes widened, and she murmured, "Mom, it turns out that you opened a plug-in when you snatched Dad in your hands......"

Woman: "......" (to be continued......
