Chapter XV. Conduct
Looking at the oil stains on the corners of several people's mouths, as well as their satisfied affection, I know that this family has opened meat in advance for the New Year today, and everyone is full of enthusiasm as if they have eaten stimulants.
Before Wen Xiaoxing could do it, the table had been cleaned up and the bowl had been brushed.
In this era, you can't go shopping after dramas, you can only work if you have nothing to do. After a few people rested, they started to go up the mountain again. The division of labor is very clear, Wen Yixing and Wen Anning are chopping wood, and Wen Shengyu is taking Wen Xiaoxing to dig wild vegetables, after all, this work is light and they can't be tired.
As soon as Wen Shengyu heard that he wanted to be with Wen Xiaoxing, he immediately jumped like thunder and was not happy.
"Why me and her, I don't want to, let me be with her, not all the work is done by me alone, she just goes out to play and causes trouble everywhere." Wen Shengyu tilted his head and shouted.
"Okay, don't make any noise, An Ning, you take Shengyu to chop wood, and I'll go digging wild vegetables with Xiaosi." Wen Yixing let out a long sigh and rolled his eyes.
"Got it, big sister."
Wen Anning took the tool and pulled the reluctant Wen Shengyu to chop wood, and when he left, Wen Shengyu glanced at Wen Xiaoxing.
Wen Yixing looked at Wen Xiaoxing hintively with the vegetable basket, but she hurriedly took the vegetable basket, smiled weirdly, and then stared mysteriously at the baby on her chest.
"Eldest sister, I'll just go alone, and I'm the best at digging wild vegetables." Wen Xiaoxing tried his best to stop Wen Yixing.
This made Wen Yixing feel a little uneasy, "Can you, I'll go with you." ”
"I can do it, eldest sister, you go and help the second sister and them, remember to come back early after chopping firewood."
Wen Xiaoxing ran out of the house as he spoke, and before Wen Yixing could finish speaking, he disappeared.
Dogs fight human beasts
Wen Xiaoxing is always so hot, if she was a little stubborn before, then after being reborn, she is a little unpredictable, and her words and actions are always expected by Mrs. Cook, and there is no order.
Even Wen Yixing, who has taken her by her side since she was a child, is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
Looking at Wen Xiaoxing's fleeting back, Wen Yixing just smiled bitterly and shook his head, no matter what Wen Xiaoxing has become, he is still the most beloved junior in the family.
Since Wen Xiaoxing insisted on digging wild vegetables by herself, Wen Yixing had no choice but to follow her and say no more, besides, she ran like a gust of wind, but I was afraid that I couldn't catch up even if I wanted to.
Zhong Zizhu packed up the stove room and came out, and saw that Wen Yixing was still in the yard, but he didn't see the other children, and he was a little puzzled.
"Yixing, didn't you ask them to take them to work? Why are they all gone, and you're still standing in the courtyard? Zhong Zizhu asked, rolling up his sleeves.
"Sheng Yu didn't want to dig wild vegetables with Xiao Si, so I asked her to chop wood with An Ning, I originally planned to dig wild vegetables with Xiao Si, but she ran away in a blink of an eye." Wen Yixing lowered the corners of his eyes helplessly to explain.
When Zhong Zizhu heard that Wen Xiaoxing ran out alone, he immediately panicked and strode forward, "My mother thought that you were the eldest of them, and you could tell the difference, but I didn't expect you to be ignorant, how could you let Xiao Si go alone, it's really nonsense." ”
Zhong Zizhu scolded Wen Yixing and hurried out.
Wen Yixing was also a little aggrieved in his heart, but he still grabbed Zhong Zizhu in time, "Mother, mother, listen to me." ”
"Find Xiao Si first." Zhong Zizhu said worriedly.
"Mother, I know you're worried about Xiaosi, but after all, she has grown up and is also a young man, this family will have to rely on her sooner or later to support her, you protect Xiaosi like this, not to mention that others think that you are a little too doting on Xiaosi." Wen Yixing comforted Zhong Zizhu softly.
But Zhong Zizhu's worries and Wen Yixing's rhetoric are fundamentally different things.
Seeing Zhong Zizhu, who was full of anxiety, he could only watch Wen Yixing stare dryly, but he couldn't say the words when he came to his mouth.
"She's not!" Zhong Zizhu shouted.
"What's not?" Wen Yixing looked at Zhong Zizhu blankly, startled by her roar.
"Didn't she just get a wound on her head? I was worried that if she went out, she would be bullied by some of the children in the village. Zhong Zizhu suddenly spoke in a low tone, and subconsciously looked away, for fear that Wen Yixing would see her panicked eyes.
Wen Yixing chuckled, pulled Zhong Zizhu to sit down, and brought her a bowl of water to relax, "Don't worry, mother, when I went to the village chief's house to buy rice that day, I saw it with my own eyes, Xiao Si has the ability to deal with a few of them, you should also let Xiao Si exercise." ”
Zhong Zizhu took a sip of water slowly, and Wen Yixing's words seemed to touch the softest place in her heart. Thinking back to the past, maybe Wen Yixing was right, she seemed to be too protective of Wen Xiaoxing.
In the long run, I'm afraid that the more she worries about what others will find, the easier it will be to be discovered.
Seeing that Zhong Zizhu was silent for a long time, Wen Yixing thought that what he said was a bit heavy, and when he was about to go up to apologize, he saw Zhong Zizhu standing up.
"It's because my mother didn't think about it, I always felt that she was the youngest in the family, and her body was weak, so she was a little eccentric, don't take it to heart." Zhong Zizhu sighed slightly.
Wen Yixing shook his head, "Mother, don't be angry, I just said something serious, let's go chop wood first, it is estimated that they are also in a hurry, Xiaosi said that she will find us if she digs wild vegetables." ”
Wen Yixing was worried that her words were not light or heavy, which made Zhong Zizhu, who was already weak, even worse.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and went out to the mountains.
When they came to the place where they often cut firewood, Wen Anning and Wen Shengyu had almost chopped the firewood, and slowly put several piles at their feet, and were sitting next to the mound of dirt on the side to rest, when they saw Zhong Zizhu coming over, they all stood up with brushes.
"Mother, we've already cut it, you don't actually need to come out." Wen Anning pointed to the firewood at his feet and said.
"I'm fine at home, just go out for a walk and exercise." Zhong Zizhu looked around as he spoke, "What about Xiao Si, didn't you say that I was looking for you to round?" ”
Zhong Zizhu asked in a questioning tone, looking at the bewildered faces of the others, he knew that he definitely didn't see Wen Xiaoxing.
Wen Shengyu had a cold look, "It's normal, she's always like this, and then runs out to play, we're used to it, it's not normal to see her here." ”
Listening to Wen Shengyu's tone, everyone cast strange eyes, full of disgust, the unfairness in the family is the fault of her mouth.
Zhong Zizhu's brows furrowed, and Wen Yixing hurriedly came up to comfort, "Shengyu, if you don't say a word, it is estimated that it is almost the same, let's look for it along the road, mother, what do you say?" ”
Zhong Zizhu's eyes sank and nodded.
Everyone carried the chopped firewood on their backs, and looked for Wen Xiaoxing as they walked. Only Wen Shengyu secretly scolded in his heart, I really hope that Wen Xiaoxing will have an accident, so that the whole family will be quiet.
Wen Yixing's heart also began to worry, if Wen Xiaoxing really had an accident, she would have to take full responsibility, it was she who kept blocking Zhong Zizhu, and silently prayed in her heart that Wen Xiaoxing was okay.
Wen Xiaoxing came directly to the place where he found Baizhu before, this is really a good place to grow Baizhu, the last time I patronized to watch others fight, I didn't even find that there are still many Baizhu in another place, and it is bigger and better than Zhao's before.
She was overjoyed, and when she was picking, she suddenly realized that something was wrong in front of her.
After such a fierce fight before, there was no trace left here.
The marks of the knife on the tree = the cut were gone, not even the blood on the ground could be found, as if those things had never happened here.
It even made Wen Xiaoxing wonder if what he saw that day was real or a dream.
If it's real, it's really terrifying, and if it's in a dream, it's too scary.
Wen Xiaoxing tried hard to recall, he was sure that what he saw that day was the real picture, and then looking at the spotless ground, he could let those people in black take great pains to destroy the evidence, Long Yu'an's identity must not be simple.
Thinking of this, Wen Xiaoxing suddenly became scared, she had been here for so long that day, Long Yu'an could find her, and those people in black didn't know for a reason.
Seeing their way of acting, she suddenly worried about the people at home, hurriedly picked up Baizhu, and hurried to find Zhong Zizhu and them.
Everyone met on their way back from chopping wood, and when they saw Wen Xiaoxing running out of breath, they thought that someone was chasing after them, so Wen Yixing hurriedly stepped forward to help.
"Little Four, you're fine, why are you running in such a hurry?" Wen Yixing took the basket in Xiao Si's hand.
"It's okay, I haven't seen you for so long, I'm afraid my mother will be worried, so I hurriedly ran back." Wen Xiaoxing explained with a smile, and couldn't help but glance back in a panic.
"It's okay." Zhong Zizhu's behavior breathed a sigh of relief.
"What is this, how can there be so many?" Wen Yixing looked at the things in the basket a little curious, and was puzzled for a long time, as if he had never seen it.
"This is atractylodes, which has the effect of strengthening the spleen and invigorating qi, stopping sweating and stabilizing the fetus, and has a good effect on the treatment of spleen deficiency and less food, abdominal distension and diarrhea. Wen Xiaoxing took the atractylodes and explained it to everyone seriously.
She has been barabalas, and her effect on atractylodes is even more handy, catchy, and everyone is dumbfounded when they hear it. Wen Xiaoxing, who usually knows that he is in trouble, when did he become so cultured.
He spoke in a good manner, without stammering at all, as if he had been in a private school for a few years.
"Little Four, how did you know that this is Baizhu, and how do you understand its role so clearly?" Wen Yixing held Baizhu in his hand and sniffed it in front of his nose.
"Ah, it's because ...... That ......" Wen Xiaoxing was suddenly speechless, and forgot to think of an excuse for showing off, "I have secretly seen the medical skills left by my father, you won't be angry, mother, right?" Wen Xiaoxing pretended to be aggrieved and worried and looked at Zhong Zizhu.
Zhong Zizhu opened his mouth wide in surprise, and then touched Wen Xiaoxing's head with relief, "How can my mother be angry, if your father knew that you were so well-behaved, the spirit in the sky should also rest in peace." ”
There were tears shining in her eyes, Wen Xiaoxing's current performance was worthy of her parents' expectations.
Everyone looked at each other and felt very comforted, the ignorant Wen Xiaoxing in front of him had finally grown up.
"Play is play, how can there be so many excuses, if I watch it, I know it, hum!" Wen Shengyu sneered angrily, carried firewood and left.
Wen Yixing looked at Zhong Zizhu and saw her sighing and shaking her head.
Seeing that the sun was quietly sinking again, Zhong Zizhu asked several children to share the firewood, after all, they are all girls, and their bodies still have limits.
On the way, the family talked and laughed, and the time passed quickly.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village at the bottom of the mountain, a big yellow dog suddenly ran out and barked at everyone. Zhong Zizhu was caught off guard, stumbled a few steps and almost fell, but fortunately, Wen Yixing quickly grabbed her and didn't let her fall.
Wen Shengyu was not so lucky, he disdained to walk with Wen Xiaoxing and walked together, strode in front, was startled by the dog that rushed out, and hit the ground directly, his trouser legs were cut by firewood, and the blood did not stop.
"Ah, mother, whose dog is this, it hurts." Wen Shengyu cried loudly and complained.
Wen Xiaoxing stood in front of Wen Shengyu and looked at the dog that was still barking at them, "Isn't this Zhao Yuzhi's dog?" Hmph, dare to hide here and rob and bite people. ”
Wen Xiaoxing bit his lower lip angrily, looked left and right, picked up the stone at his feet, and smashed it hard at the arrogant big yellow dog.
