Chapter 180: Mengxi (5)
At this moment, seeing this, the old lady happily chatted with Xiao Jiu, but she didn't touch those dried fruits!
From the truth in her eyes, I think these dried fruits should be quite rare here.
Although she was hungry, as a woman's family, not to mention that there were guests here, she didn't take a second look.
And Fei didn't have so many scruples, Xiao Jiu was his good friend and good brother, and there was not too much politeness between the two.
After he peeled one open and ate it, he took her mother's basket of hay to the back room!
In fact, these are some soft and dry plants, after sun exposure, mixed with these herbs, there is an anti-insect ant effect.
Just spread this hay on your siblings' beds and you'll get a good night's sleep!
"Xiao Jiu, what's going on with your father, I heard that the lake god in the big lake a while ago was powerful again, and dragged an old man at the other end of the market to the bottom of the lake, you must tell your father not to go down to the lake!"
A few people sat down, and the old lady looked at Xiao Jiu worriedly and said.
Xiao Jiu was still playing with a kind of stone with the two children, and at this time, it was not the old lady who cared, so she turned around and responded to her with a smile.
Xiao Jiu told the old lady that he and his father hadn't gone to the lake to fish for a while.
Fortunately, there are still some fish on the wall at home, which is enough for the father and son to eat for a while, so that the worried look of the old lady is better.
At this moment, at such a close distance, I saw that the face of the non-old lady was pale, a red line between her eyebrows, and drops of sweat kept sliding down her forehead, and I couldn't help but be surprised when I saw this!
Because although the sun outside is scorching, it will not turn people's faces pale, which is rare that this is a precursor to heat stroke?
At this time, the old lady saw me staring at her, smiled and said, "Let you laugh, I have some old problems." ”
When I heard this, I hurriedly shook my head, saying that I was abrupt, because I was staring at people's faces, and the owner could still smile and signal, to be honest, it made me a little embarrassed.
After sitting for a while, he came out with an empty basket and put it next to the kang and said!
"Mother, I'm going to the ground, there is a boiling soup in the house, you are giving it to your father when it gets cooler, and your younger brothers and sisters you look at it more, Xiao Jiu, I have to go down to the ground to get busy, I'm playing with you another day?"
After finishing speaking, as soon as he got a response from his wife, he picked up a hoe and thought
Towards the fields.
At this time, Xiao Jiu came to Youfei's eyes, and winked at Youfei with a smile.
"Lao Fan, I don't know how busy you are this day, when did I not come to the door, you see that I will help you go to the field with Brother Fang today, how about the three of us go to roast and eat pickled melons together in the evening, aunt, do you think it's okay?"
"Go, go, don't come back too late."
The old lady was amused by Xiao Jiu's weird appearance of yin and yang, and waved her hand and said.
And the two children listened to the melon to eat, and they were greedy, and they wanted to follow, but they were stopped by their mother!
Seeing this, Xiao Jiu said: "Hehe, don't worry, Brother Xiao Jiu will leave some for you, and let your brother bring it back for you when the time comes." ”
In this way, the two children nodded obediently in agreement, and we, no, should say that I followed the two of them with a blank face the whole time!
Walking on the way to the field, he didn't bow his head and be silent, for a long time, he looked at Xiao Jiu and asked, "Xiao Jiu, you came to the field with me, it's not just to eat peeled melons, right?" ”
I also looked at Xiao Jiu curiously, but when I saw Xiao Jiu waving like a child folding a branch on the side of the road, I realized that Xiao Jiu was not only easy to talk, but also very active.
"Haha, the one who knows me is also Fan!"
Xiao Jiu shook his head and shook his head as a talented person in the book, not to mention, the appearance of that school of theory is really a bit like that.
But seeing that we both looked at him helplessly, Xiao Jiu put away his appearance and said!
"Oh, actually, I just want to go to the big lake."
"Xiao Jiu, how do you say this?"
The two of us are even more puzzled, you said that this Xiao Jiu used to drill into the lake with his father every day, and who knows better than him about the familiarity with the big lake?
And now he wants to go to the Great Lake to see, isn't this sincerely ridiculing us?
"Oh, no, no, no!"
As we spoke, we gradually came to a field planted by the family, which was not large and covered a small area, and most of the vegetables and fruits planted were common in Zhuqing Village.
And at this moment, I and I have to stand on the two sides and look at Xiao Jiu who is in a hurry!
But seeing the unkind eyes of the two of us, Xiao Jiu casually threw the branch in his hand and walked over to explain to us.
"Old Fan, you also know about this, aren't everyone all in the big lake the lake god is powerful, let's say it's the dead man in the big lake and the swamp is a haunted ghost, this
No, I think the three of us will go tonight to see if it's the lake god or the water ghost! ”
I didn't understand what Xiao Jiu meant, and I was surprised!
"You're going to the lake?"
"How can it, Lao Fan, let's take a look from afar, don't you say that these ghosts come late at night to make waves? Let's go there and take a look, and see if it's true or not!" Xiao Jiu explained again!
In response to Xiao Jiu's words, I looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Why don't you go alone?" ”
"Uh..."
Xiao Jiu was stopped by my words, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
I looked at him with a smile and looked at him with a smile, and I had already guessed Xiao Jiu's true thoughts!
"Yes, Xiao Jiu, Brother Fang and I are not familiar with the Great Lake, why don't you go alone?" At this time, I didn't see Xiao Jiu's careful thoughts.
"Oops, okay, okay!"
Xiao Jiu pouted and glanced at me dissatisfied, as if he was dissatisfied with my teasing of him, and muttered: "Aren't I afraid of being really haunted by the water, so I asked you to strengthen my courage!" ”
Listening to Xiao Jiu say his true thoughts, I and I gave Xiao Jiu a helpless look.
I couldn't stand Xiao Jiu's soft grinding and hard bubbles, I and Youfei glanced at each other, and had to agree to Xiao Jiu's ridiculous idea!
At this time, because the crops were busy for half a day in the afternoon, we needed to do very little, and Xiao Jiu and I helped clean up the crops.
Soon, the field was completed in an hour with the three of us working together.
And the night also quietly darkened at this moment!
The direction leading to the Great Lake was originally from the path of the Xiaojiu family, which ran through the woods to lead to the Great Lake.
But Xiao Jiu said that there was a shortcut on the side of Mengxi's residence, and through the shortcut was around a mountain, and it could also lead to the location of the big lake.
In this way, the three of us went blind in the dark, led by Xiao Jiu in front of us, and slowly headed towards the direction of the big lake!
I walked behind the two of them, and for some reason, I thought of the pale face and haggard appearance of the old lady in the afternoon.
To be honest, working in a funeral home for so many years reminds me of a corpse with a pale face in the freezer!
But what kind of disease could it be that the old lady committed, so that her face can be so mad?
