"Chen Dacheng, you stay away from my brother in the future, Yuan Ding will not play with you in the future!"

Xia Yuanding just saw that the person who came was a teenager dressed in rustic clothes, and before he could speak, his sister was the first to speak disrespectfully, and directly cut him off!

"Yingxue, the stone injury has nothing to do with us!" Chen Dacheng began to cry out for injustice. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's okay? Xu Le, come on, did you bring my brother over, and said that it doesn't matter, if he doesn't go, he won't fall at all, and you won't play with my brother in the future! ”

Xia Yingxue's logic is very clear, anyway, she thinks that her brother's injury is inseparable from these people.

"Hmph, we don't want to take him to play yet, let's go, let's let the paper kite go!" Chen Dacheng took the people in their hands to show their paper kites, and before leaving, he spat out to Xia Yuanding, "Follow the fart!" ”

"Sister, I'm fine, it doesn't have much to do with them!"

Xia Yuanding looked at the paper kite in their hands, isn't this thing just a kite, what is there to be proud of, and dare to say that he is a fart.

"Anyway, you can't learn well with them, didn't Dad say that tomorrow you will go to study with Grandpa to read and write, and you will be much better than them in the future!" I didn't expect Xia Yingxue to be distinguished from high and low at such a young age.

Well, a few friends were driven away by Xia Yingxue in a few words, and the kite couldn't be flowned.

The shape of the village is like a crescent moon, and the tip of the two moons is the location of the village entrance, and there is a pond at each of the east and west village entrances, and in the summer, the lotus flowers will bloom in the hall. This is not a dead pond, but a river that has been dug by hand leading to the Yingliu River in the north, in which there are not only fish, but more importantly, lotus roots, and lotus seeds are children's favorites.

By the pond, under the willow tree, Xia Yuanding sat quietly, looking at his reflection in the pond, with a smile on his face and very happy.

"Yuan Ding, let's go back, what's there to see here!" Xia Yingxue couldn't be more familiar with these things, and there was no freshness at all.

In early spring, although it has shown its vitality, after all, winter has just passed, and the willows behind it are still in decay.

"Look, sister, there are fish in the water!"

Following Xia Yuanding's finger, Xia Yingxue really saw a fish in the water, and the white belly of the fish could be seen clearly.

"Oh, isn't it just a fish, make a fuss, wait for the weather to warm up, there are more fish in the water!" Xia Yingxue said calmly, when it was cold, the fish ran to the bottom of the water, and it was rare to see one swimming up.

This is an unpolluted river, unlike the previous life in Xia Yuanding's impression, not to mention that there are fish in the rivers in the countryside, even the ditches with water are rare, not to mention the scene of schools of fish and shrimp.

Just when Xia Yuanding was playing by the river, Chen Dacheng and their kites flew into the sky, and the bright colors were conspicuous in the vast sky. Xia Yuanding found that his sister was also curious to look up, he thought to himself, probably everyone has a kite flying in the sky in their hearts!

Seeing the fish in the water, Xia Yuanding's mind became active, to be honest, he really ate enough pickles every day. Although there are sometimes cabbage and other vegetables, people like them can't do this every day.

If he can catch a fish, then he can have a good meal, he is now at a critical stage of growing his body, and malnutrition is not good. But he didn't know if the fish could be caught casually, and if it was banned, his idea would be null and void.

"Sister, I want to eat fish!" Xia Yuanding said.

"Where are there fish at home, just think about it, go back and dare to say that you will definitely be assed!" Xia Yingxue doesn't care about her brother's delusion that he wants to eat fish.

People who can't even eat white-flour steamed buns for three meals have to eat fish when they move their mouths, Xia Yingxue feels that her younger brother is pampered and proud after being sick once, and she doesn't want to think about the current situation at home.

"Look, isn't there a fish in the water, can we catch one and go back?" Xia Yuanding asked.

"If you don't do it, you still catch fish, hurry up and go back with me!" Xia Yingxue thought to herself, it's really unrealistic to catch fish with your little arms and legs.

"We can fish one back so that we can have a delicious fish soup in the evening, do you want to eat fish!"

"But we don't have fishing tools at home, so we still listen to our parents, don't think about it every day." Xia Yingxue sighed and said.

"If we had fishing tools, wouldn't we be able to eat fish every day!"

"The idea is good, let's go home!" Xia Yingxue nodded, and forcibly pulled her younger brother away.

What do you mean, looking at himself being dragged along, Xia Yuanding looked back at the pond and was unwilling to give up for a long time.

When I returned home, I saw my mother operating the loom, the shuttle shuttling back and forth, and my mother weaving.

The sound of the loom was chaotic and even, looking at the cloth that had been formed, Xia Yuanding knew that his mother was not idle.

"Mother, we're back, I'll help you!" With that, Xia Yingxue went to help her mother weave.

As a farmer's daughter, she has to learn all kinds of female red since she was a child, and weaving is also to learn, not only to weave well, but also to weave beautifully, complex patterns, and cloth can be sold at a good price.

In the spirit of curiosity, Xia Yuanding watched from the side for a while, and after the freshness passed, he stopped looking, trying to find out how they got the pattern out of his brain.

"Mother, father!" Xia Yuanding asked.

"Your father went to the mountains and didn't come back until dark!"

"Is Dad going to chop wood?" Looking at the pile of firewood piled up in the yard, Xia Yuanding said puzzled.

"When you come back, you'll carry a bundle of firewood, and now your father is chiseling stones!" Mother said with a smile.

"Dad said, after a while, we can build a new house after we have accumulated enough stones!" At this time, Xia Yingxue couldn't help but say excitedly, it seems that she is very yearning for a new house.

"Really?" Xia Yuanding couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, after my father is busy with farm work, he will go to the mountains to find stones whenever he has free time, you will know that you will not be able to help at all!" Xia Yingxue mourns that her brother is not angry, and she will be killed at every opportunity.

"I'm going to see if my dad has come back." Xia Yuanding turned his head and ran out, and disappeared as soon as he slipped through the smoke.

"Ding'er, slow down, don't run blind!" Seeing his son running out alone, Xia Li was a little anxious, and then said: "Ying girl, you go to see your brother, don't run away again!" ”

"Mother, I'm not going, my brother won't listen to me at all, my father will come back soon, forgive him for not daring to run away."

"Forget it, let him play, you help me quickly weave this bit of cloth, and sell it one day to supplement the family."

In the evening, the sunset reflected the red sky, and the uncles in the village were busy all day, all of them carried their tired bodies home, looking at the dirt left behind them with hoes and other tools, Xia Yuanding thought about whether his land had also been carefully cared for.

The village here is simple and ecologically harmonious, and when Xia Yuanding was sitting on a piece of wood next to the fence door and observing back and forth, there were birds not far from him foraging for food.

At this time, he would remember another memory, after the snow in winter, he swept a clearing in the yard, erected a large bamboo plaque with a short stick, sprinkled grain, tied a rope to the short stick, and hid in the distance waiting for the bird to take the bait.

"Shiro, I'm home!"

"Uncle Wang, you're done too!" Xia Shouzhi carried a bundle of firewood on his back and hurried home along the mountain road, and when he met the uncle who was also driving the goats home, he slowed down.

"Shiro is really diligent, I'm tired!"

"Look at what you said, if this family is idle, no one else will gossip!"

"Look you've been on the mountain, what's wrong with this stone?" Uncle Wang is old, and it is not good to farm, so he can only herd sheep every day, although it is early spring, but the sheep can also eat something.

"It's basically enough, and we'll build the house in a while!" Speaking of this, Xia Shouzhi was very happy, in order to be able to build a stone house, he got up early every day and got dark, and he was able to build the house, and he was also in front of Dushan Village.

You must know that Xia Shouzhi's brothers, the eldest Shouren and the second Shouyi, built a stone house, which also exhausted Xia Jizu's savings. The remaining sons, Xia Shouli, Xia Shouzhi, and Xia Shouxin, are all in this adobe house.

Nowadays, in the whole Dushan Village, adobe houses still account for the majority, there are very few stone houses, and the wooden houses are only owned by the Du family, the landlord of Dushan Village.

In fact, the Xia family used to be a landlord with a wooden house to live in, Xia Jizu used to live in the county seat, and later split up and got Dushan Village. When his sons grew up, Xia Jizu simply divided the family property among his sons and sent helpers.

"When the time comes, if you need help, you must call a few of our boys!" When he heard that he was going to build a house, Uncle Wang enthusiastically said that he would say what he needed.

"Okay, I'll ask a few big brothers to help when the time comes!"

In rural areas, it is normal for neighbors to help each other, you help me and I help you, and things are borrowed and returned.

After the two separated, it didn't take long for Xia Shouzhi to return to his house, he saw his son sitting at the gate of the courtyard, and ran over after leaving the old man.

"Yuanding~~~"

While hearing the call, Xia Yuanding also saw his father who came back with firewood. Looking at his father, who had been stained with dust after working all day, Xia Yuanding greeted him with a smile.

"Dad, I'll get it!" As he spoke, Xia Yuanding was about to take over the tools in Xia Shouzhi's hand.

"It's too heavy for you to handle!" Xia Shouzhi didn't let go, his tools for doing work were still very heavy.

Entering the yard, Xia Shou put down the firewood, this time he picked up some dry firewood, the volume is not very large, and he can directly put it in the stove to make a fire.

The loom was still creaking, and Xia Li's work was nearing the end, and he didn't stop his work when he saw her husband come back.

Sitting on a chair in the main room, Xia Shouzhi asked his son to pour him a bowl of water first, and after sitting down, he drank it in a big gulp. It seems that exertion consumes a lot of water and is now in urgent need of replenishment.

After taking a big sip of water, Xia Shouzhi asked, "The woven cloth is enough, can you catch the next rally?" ”

"It should be enough, I'll try to weave a little more, and I'll bring something back when the time comes."

"Well, I plan to try to build the house before the farm is busy, and the help of the villagers will be indispensable when the time comes, and the things must be ready!" Xia Shouzhi nodded and said.

"Are we really going to build a new house?" Xia Yuanding raised his head and asked.

"Well, when the time comes, find someone to make two beds, one for you and Yingxue!" Putting down the bowl in his hand, Xia Shouzhi smiled.

"So, I can sleep in a room by myself!" There is no need to make a fuss, Xia Yuanding moved his eyes to his sister, and wanted to ask her what she was excited about, so he was so reluctant to sleep in the same room with him.

"Yes, I'll leave you a room alone, and the plan is to build it next to the stove!" Xia Shouzhi said affirmatively.

Xia Yingxue began to cheer, no matter how she said that she was a big girl, it was not good to squeeze a room with her younger brother, thinking of having her own new house in the future, she began to look forward to it.
