Chapter 60: A false alarm

Chen Wen, who had done a day's work yesterday, just wanted to stay in bed, and he was tired. In the end, it was her grandmother who came to drag her up, and she was a little more sober.

Tossing and turning on the bed, listening to grandma's muttering and not knowing what to say, she replied to her in a daze: "What did you say?" ”

"I said silkworms, and their backs are black."

Chen Wen was excited, quickly sat up, and began to dress and put on shoes: "What are you talking about...... Again, can't you? ”

Li Suniang nodded, her face embarrassed.

Chen Wen didn't have time to freshen up, so he hurriedly went to take a look.

Really......

My back was a little dark, I didn't move much, all of it.

Chen Wen lowered his eyebrows and stroked the back of the silkworm with his fingertips, feeling its state.

There is no softness, is there a different symptom?

After the last silkworm death, it was obviously more carefully cared for, every time the mulberry leaves were picked, regardless of whether there was water on the surface or not, they would be wiped clean and then fed, and they were changed four times a day.

Raising them so big, one or two without conscience, left them one after another.

Sure enough, it's a precious thing.

Chen Wen felt that he should never raise silkworms again. At the beginning, I swore that I could raise them all, but it seems that there is still a lack of practice.

Li Suniang leaned against the door, blocking her light, Chen Wen squinted, "What's wrong?" ”

Confirming that Chen Wen didn't cry this time, Li Suniang was a little relieved, and pointed outward: "The little girl who came to you to learn needlework last time." ”

"Ginkgo biloba is here?"

"Oh...... That girl's name is Ginkgo? The boy who came with her is very familiar, what is his name? ”

Chen Wen's action of stroking the silkworm stopped: "...... Liu Yangmu? ”

How much does this Liu Yangmu love his sister, and every time he comes back, he has to personally send his sister to her door? Or is it ...... I'm afraid that she won't be able to bully Liu Ginkgo.

Chen Wen looked at the silkworms, full of loss, and had to dispose of these silkworms.

I had my hands free to tie my hair, and I remembered that I hadn't washed it, so I had to say to my grandmother, "Then you tell them to wait for me." ”

As a result, as soon as I raised my eyes, I saw Liu Yangmu and Liu Yinxing standing at the door, and Liu Yinxing smiled at her.

Li Suniang looked at the two people behind her: "I just asked them to come in and sit and drink tea." ”

"......" I saw it.

Li Suniang glanced at Chen Wen's expression and said to them, "Then let's go have a hot tea first, Chen Wen has something to do." ”

Liu Yinxing heard that Chen Wen had something to do for the time being, nodded, took her brother's hand, and said to Chen Wen: "Then you can be busy first, my brother will go back in a while." ”

Liu Yangmu bowed his head to Chen Wen slightly, touched his sister's head, and agreed with his sister's words.

Chen Wen said hello and picked up the dustpan.

When Liu Yinxing was about to pull her brother into the house, she found that she couldn't pull her brother.

"What are you doing, Grandma Chen Wen is waiting for us."

Liu Yangmu pushed his sister: "You go to the house first, I have something to say to Chen Wen." ”

"What?"

"You go in first."

Liu Yinxing looked at her brother and then at Chen Wen, nodded, and had to follow Li Suniang into the house.

Hearing that Liu Yangmu said that he had something to tell him, Chen Wen raised his eyebrows, held the silkworm, and walked to him, a little confused.

What can the two of them say, there is no topic to talk about.

"Brother Yang Mu, do you have anything to say to me?"

Liu Yangmu stared at Chen Wen's movements: "Where are you going to take them?" ”

Chen Wen lowered his eyes in disappointment: "Take them...... Took it and buried it. ”

"Why did you take it and bury it?"

"Because they're dead."

Liu Yangmu frowned, bent down, and got closer to see her silkworms.

Chen Wen was startled by his sudden approach, and took a few steps back.

Liu Yangmu took Chen Wen's hand: "What are you retreating?" ”

"You...... You suddenly approached and startled me. ”

Liu Yangmu glanced at Chen Wen and didn't speak.

Chen Wen was not in the mood to play with him, so he asked him directly: "What does Brother Yang Mu have to tell me?" ”

"This silkworm ......" Liu Yangmu pointed to the silkworm in Chen Wen's hand, and then said, "Don't take it and bury it." ”

"Why?" Chen Wen looked down at his silkworms and was sad: "They are dead." ”

If you don't bury it, it will have a strong smell the next day.

Liu Yangmu frowned, looked at the silkworms again, and was puzzled: "Who said they died?" ”

Chen Wen poked him with his finger: "Look, they don't move." ”

After speaking, he sighed, and said: "Actually, I have died a batch before, and the symptoms are similar, except that this one is black and not soft, but it is the same, and I don't like to move." ”

"Not liking to move doesn't mean you're going to die, it's also possible that you're going to form a cocoon."

Cocooning?

Chen Wen was awakened, and looked up sharply, his eyes wide in disbelief. Yes, the silkworm doesn't like to move when it wants to form a cocoon, her silkworm is already very big, and it may indeed be cocooned.

Afraid that Chen Wen was flustered, he might not have understood, Liu Yangmu repeated again: "Maybe it's about to form a cocoon, you can wait a few more days, if it doesn't end by then, it's not too late to throw it away." ”

When I bought silkworms just now, the vendor also said that if you don't move, it doesn't mean that you're dead, and you may be cocooning.

And Chen Wen's mood was like riding a roller coaster, and it calmed down all of a sudden.

She was a lot more pleasant, nodded happily, hurried back, and put the dustpan on the bamboo rack: "Then I'll take a look in a few days." ”

Liu Yangmu nodded, but he didn't move.

After a long time, Chen Wen looked at him suspiciously: "So, what is Brother Yang Mu looking for me?" ”

Liu Yangmu paused: "It's okay." ”

In fact, there was something wrong, and the words in his heart had been brewed several times, but he looked at Chen Wen's immature and ignorant appearance, and it was not easy to tell her, so he had to swallow the words back.

Then, Liu Yangmu turned around and left: "Tell my sister if I'm tired, I'll go back first." ”

“…… Good. ”

Liu Yangmu said that it was okay, and Chen Wen didn't think much about it, only guessing that Brother Yang Mu might have seen her silkworm and came to remind her.

Chen Wen was simply grateful to Liu Yangmu, if it weren't for him, he would almost bury all the silkworms that might be about to form cocoons.

Fortunately, it was not buried, a false alarm, a false alarm.

After Chen Wen solved the matter of silkworms, he entered the house after grooming, and his steps were quite brisk.

After entering the house, I found that Liu Yinxing was sitting face-to-face with her grandmother, Xu didn't know what to talk about, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. When grandma saw Chen Wen, she hurried back to the house.

Liu Yinxing raised her head and looked behind Chen Wen: "My brother is gone?" ”

"Hmm."

Chen Wen walked to his place and sat down.

"Chen Wen, look at it, I haven't seen you for a few days, have I had a raw hand?"

Liu Yinxing took out the results of the past few days of practice at home and showed it to Chen Wen.

Chen Wen checked it, but he was a little surprised, exactly the same as the last time, "This is what you practiced at home?" ”

Liu Yinxing nodded: "That's right, it's just that I don't have much time to practice every day, have I regressed?" ”

Chen Wen said truthfully: "No regression, it's good, it's just that some places ......"

Then, Chen Wen pointed out to her that she sewed badly.

Liu Yinxing listened to it, and was about to change it again, her eyes flickered, she suddenly grabbed Chen Wen's arm, pointed to Chen Wen's pocket, and accidentally turned out half of her purse, her eyes widened: "What is this?" ”
