Zhang Yu saw that Liu San still didn't believe it, so he said: "Old Liu, you may not know that I used to be the captain of a mountaineering team, so I am proficient in mountaineering skills, it's not a big deal!" ”

Zhang Yuyu said that he was a mountaineer, which was actually true, and he could also be said to be the captain, but that was already his childhood, and now he is talking about it, which is obviously outdated.

"I see!" Liu San nodded, although he was still skeptical, but with Liu Shangxiang present, there was no controversy.

"Grandpa, eat it!" Liu Shangxiang stretched out the blood lotus in his hand in front of Liu San and asked him to take it.

"Give it to me!"

"Yes, I picked it for you, I want you to be forever young, never die, and always by my side."

Liu San also saw in the medical book that the blood lotus can be rejuvenated after taking it, but what he didn't expect was that this flower was now in front of him, and he didn't know if he could really live forever after taking it, so he stretched out his hand and said: "Xiaoxiang, it's not sure if this blood lotus can live forever after eating, but grandpa is willing to try it, and he doesn't have to eat it all, if it works, eating a petal will be effective, if it's useless, it's just a legend, then eating the whole plant may not have an effect." ”

Liu Shangxiang said: "But grandpa, Brother Zhang and I have tried it, and one person ate a petal, but there was no change." ”

"That's right!" Liu San was puzzled when he heard his granddaughter's words, but after picking a petal and eating it, there was no special taste.

After Liu San ate a petal, he said: "Let's eat one first, maybe the effect of the medicine has not been absorbed, wait and wait, put this medicine here first, when do you two want me to give it to you again." ”

Zhang Yu said: "Old Liu, this blood lotus is Shang Xiang's filial piety to you, you don't have to postpone it, you can do whatever you want, even if you can't live forever, I think this blood lotus is also a good tonic, and it can also strengthen the body." ”

Liu San smiled slightly.

Liu Shangxiang said with a smile: "Brother Zhang is right, whether it is useful or not, you have eaten it!" ”

Liu San listened to the words of the two, nodded and said, "It's okay, although this is just a legend, but the taste of this blood lotus is more delicious than other flowers, then I'm welcome!" ”

Liu San said, broke off another petal and put it in his mouth, and ate it, and after a while, he ate the whole blood lotus as if it were a fruit.

Zhang Yuyu and Liu Shangxiang watched Liu San eat the whole blood lotus, and after observing it carefully for a while, they didn't see him getting younger, so they both shook their heads vigorously and said: "Grandpa, it seems that the legend of the blood lotus is fake, you have eaten the whole plant, and you don't see the slightest effect." ”

"That's what I thought, too!" Liu San responded, he was not sure about it, but now that he has taken it, he is even more uncertain.

This is the end of the matter of the Blood Lotus.

Subsequently, Liu San took Zhang Yuyu to the melon field at the back of the house to pick watermelons, and prepared to take them to the city tomorrow to sell some money to supplement the family.

Liu Shangxiang boiled water to cook rice and began to prepare dinner.

Before the sun set, Liu San and Zhang Mi picked two burlap bags of watermelons from the melon field and came back, and then carried them back to the warehouse to be put away, ready to be pulled to the city by a cart the next morning to sell.

After the three of them finished eating, they rested in the courtyard for a while.

Subsequently, Liu San and Zhang met to swim in Bafeng Lake.

For dinner, the braised carp is the three carp that Zhang met from Bafeng Lake last night, Liu Shangxiang got one for dinner, and let her deal with the other two, and hung them on the bamboo in the yard this morning, dried fish and eaten.

Zhang Yuyu and Liu San walked along yesterday's road towards Bafeng Lake.

Halfway through, Liu San met Zhang and said, "Xiao Zhang, how do you think it is very fragrant?" ”

Zhang Yu didn't know what it meant, just nodded, and said: "Shangxiang is quirky, beautiful and refined, with the appearance of a mountain ghost, beautiful and pure, like the water of this Bafeng Lake, clear to the bottom, spotless, like a cloudless blue sky in autumn, deep and blue." ”

Liu San touched his gray goatee after hearing this, and said with satisfaction: "Xiao Zhang, do you have a good impression of Xiao Xiang?" ”

Zhang Yuyu was only in his twenties on the surface, and his actual age was forty-five years old, and he was still a person from the past, and he could hear that Liu San had something to say, but he didn't know his true meaning, so he said tentatively: "Old Liu, what do you mean by your favor?" ”

"Hahaha......"

Liu San opened his mouth and laughed when he heard Zhang Yu's question, and he didn't sell it, and said bluntly: "Xiao Zhang, I mean do you like our family Xiaoxiang, if you like it, when we go back after taking a bath, I will give you two a life-long order, and in a few days I will worship the hall and enter the cave room, and then give birth to three or five grandchildren for my grandfather, what, young people are not young, and it is time to think about their lifelong events?" ”

"Ah......h

Zhang Yu was surprised, stood in place, the muscles on his face were solidified, and he smiled after a while: "Old Liu, you are joking with me again!" ”

Liu San listened to it but said seriously: "Just kidding, I, Liu San, never joke, what I say is one, two is two, how can there be any reason to joke, you just say a word, agree or disagree?" ”

Is this the legendary forced marriage?

But I don't think about it at all now, and I don't mean that to Miss Liu!

Besides, I look like I'm only about 20 years old on the surface, but I'm actually 45 years old, and she's only 18 years old this year, just coming of age!

"This is to make me ...... Old cows eat tender grass? ”

No, this kind of thing is not what I should do, and I can't do it, I can't agree, I can't agree!

"Xiao Zhang, why don't you answer me?" Liu San didn't answer when he saw that Zhang met in the middle of the ring, so he asked.

Zhang Yuyu touched his nose and said: "Old Liu, you see that I have only known Miss Liu for a day or two, and besides, she is still young, she is only eighteen this year, there is no need to worry about this, even if there is such a meaning, we must understand each other for a while, after all, marriage is a major event in life, in case of disagreement, there is still a way back, you say yes?" ”

He's looking for the bottom of the stairs!

The twisted melon is not sweet, but what he said is also a little reasonable, marriage is not child's play, you have to understand each other for a while, it seems that I am too anxious!

Thinking of this, Liu San had no choice but to nod and say: "Xiao Zhang, your mind is calmer than mine, then let you get to know each other for a while, but understanding is understanding, but there is still a time limit, in this way, I will give you a year, and today after a year, you will give me a definite answer, is it okay?" ”

One year!

Zhang Yuyu touched his nose and thought, "Okay! One year is one year. "Rejoice! Let's go, let's swim go? Liu San patted Zhang Yuyu's shoulder with satisfaction, and walked down the hill towards Bafeng Lake in front of him.
