On this day, when Yan Yan was going home alone, he passed by a family with white affairs.

From afar, she watched the lively scene of silent mourning.

The sound of suona and gongs and drums is endless.

In front of the door is a white silk hanging from a tall poplar branch, and under the branch tree is a group of people around the table, talking.

Because it was noon, the table was full of food with all kinds of food.

Yan Yan smelled the fragrance and swallowed directly. But she walked the way home, and in front of the door of the house, she raised her right hand to try to block her view and go around it.

Yan Yan's heart was ashamed, she was like an ignorant child who only coveted the 'Manchu and Han Banquet'.

She thought so.

She was undoubtedly annoyed when she was interrupted.

Yan Yan looked at the person who grabbed one of her arms and was stunned for a moment.

"February, February?"

"Hmm."

"Brother February, this is?"

“......”

Xu Jiayue didn't speak, just motioned to her to look over there. That side naturally refers to that family.

Yan Yan followed his gaze and was embarrassed.

I saw that my mother-in-law Zou, my sister Yan Feng, and even a large number of Xu Jialan were looking at them.

That posture should be, should have seen what she had just done.

Yan Yan's cheeks suddenly turned red, and she lowered her head and said hesitantly.

"Brother February, why did you and your sister come back so early today?"

"Early? Sister Yan, I'm afraid you don't know the time, it's almost half past twelve now. ”

When Xu Jiayue said this, he frowned and said, "Perhaps, I should ask Yan Mei this question, what are you doing?" ”

"Ah, I, I......"

I thought it was too early, so I ran out into the back streets for a walk. I can't say that, I'm afraid he'll tell my mother-in-law, or my sister.

You must know that the backstreets are a dangerous place.

It's crowded and crowded.

It's a 'forbidden place' for a kid my size. What's more, I went alone.

Fortunately, when Brother February saw me like this, he didn't ask too much, so he pulled me over.

Then I learned that the owner of the house had invited the whole village to see off his old father.

Also, filial piety is not shallow.

The days went round and round, and it was Saturday in a flash.

This appointed day.

At noon that day, everyone finished their meal in a hurry.

A group of 12 of us, as agreed, gathered under the ginkgo tree in front of my original house.

According to the discussion, everyone decided to go to the dwarf slope.

Not only is it not short, but it is also the leader among us surrounded by mountains.

It is known for being high, treacherous, and barren. It is a 'forbidden place' that adults often tell us about it.

It is said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, which is true.

Our group, the boy scouts led by Xu Jiayue, set off in a majestic manner.

At this time, not to mention the blooming of flowers, it is also the rampant spring.

The rape flowers all over the mountains are still eye-catching.

The green and yellow are mixed, and it has a unique charm.

I followed behind my sister Yan Feng and looked at Xu Jiayue and his party walking in front in confusion.

I couldn't figure out what they were looking for, but I couldn't help but laugh as I watched them stop and go, goug, and scream.

Yes, laugh!

My pleasure is not in the mountains, not in the water, not in the trees, not in the flowers......

Only in this group of fun-seekers.

Perhaps, it is more in the person who led the crowd to find something.

Later, I told the man that I looked very much like Ouyang Xiu's drunkard at that time.

It's just that at that time, I didn't have the chic and wanton of a drunkard.

At dusk, the smoke rises everywhere.

At that time, everyone returned with a full load.

There are many trophies, such as wild loquat saplings, wild citrus saplings, wild pear saplings, and even wild cherry saplings.

Not only that, but there are also some like wild mushrooms, black fungus...... Wait a minute.

It is worth mentioning that my sister and Xu Jiayue also found two wild eggs.

But they only gave it to me and Xu Jialan, playing with it.

If going up the hill is a strenuous boxing match, then going down is an easy free breaststroke.

went back, and Xu Jiayue, the leader of the previous team, actually walked last.

I'm not surprised either, because I'm used to his unpredictable personality and presence.

From childhood to adulthood, he has been like this, everything begins, and nothing ends.

After returning to play, when he returned, he always looked idle and calm.

Even so, Yan Yan couldn't help but look at Xu Jiayue who was walking beside her through her sister.

Xu Jiayue was carrying a wild cherry sapling in his hand at this time, and nothing else.

Even so, it was enough for Yan Yan to be curious about him.

Because of this trip, even she, who didn't know what she could ask for, was stuffed with things in her arms.

And the one who took the lead in finding something reaped this little thing?

Why did Brother February find more 'treasures' than anyone else, but he only picked up one or two things and took them home.

Is it because none of those things can get into his eyes?

Or is it because he's taking care of 'waste' like her?

Maybe it's all there, Yan Yan thought so.

After all, in her hand she still holds a small tree that he gave.

This is also a cherry sapling.

That's right, just now on the mountain, Xu Jiayue was surprised to find two wild cherry saplings side by side in front of him.

The saplings are small, about the height of an adult's palm.

At that time, several people rushed up and shouted for one to be kept.

Although Yan Yan didn't know what kind of plant it was, looking at the verdant little sapling, he could see that his eyes were straight and he didn't blink.

But she didn't ask for it, after all, wolves have more meat and less meat, and she felt that it was better for her not to fight.

lest after a while, everyone quarrels and hurts the peace.

Although she is not afraid that everyone will hurt the harmony, she has no fun.

Anyway, in her heart, nothing is more important than her sister.

It's just a small sapling, don't want it. Yan Yan thought disdainfully.

But what happened later, Yan Yan was surprised.

Xu Jiayue didn't know what to tell them, they actually agreed to give up, and then evened out one of my plants.

I don't know if they pity me, they don't know anything, they can't find anything, they just give it to me anyway.

My sister Yan Feng also asked me to take it with a smile.

It should be what Brother February wants to give to his sister. I read it silently.

Since I was born and remembered, the relationship between Xu Jiayue and her sister has been sticky like syrup.

At that time, Xu Jialan and I were only two years old, and my sisters Yan Feng and Xu Jiayue were only four years old.

At that time, my sister and I were still being led by my mother.

I remember very well that day I was in the hall, on the mat on the floor, playing with the doll my mother had sewn for me, a stuffed animal.

Suddenly, a soft little boy's voice came from outside the house.

"Hi, Sister Feng's little sister. Hello? ”

"Well, my brother is good."

I watched in confusion as he walked in, and said.

"Haha, that's good! Come and hug my brother. ”

I didn't move, just let him step out of the door, stretched out his hands, and hugged me in his arms.

After a while, my sister came out of the back room.

She looked at Xu Jiayue hugging me, and didn't say anything, just asked.

"Coming alone? What about Sister Shuanglan? ”

"Hmm. My sister is so noisy. My mom was taking it with her. ”

After finishing speaking, he continued: "I think Sister Feng's sister is very good. I like it. ”

"Hmph, I like it too, my sister."

The implication is not his.

He didn't care, but took out two candies from his pocket, one for me and one for my sister.

I happily pinched the candy he gave me and looked at it again and again.

My sister refused.

He sighed helplessly, then tore open the candy and fed it to me.

Then he put me down and followed my sister and said something.

In a moment, the laughter of the two of them was heard.

Seeing that they were laughing, I also giggled behind me inexplicably.

Seeing this, Xu Jiayue held me in his arms again and said to his sister: "Alas, I really want to change my sister with you!" The guy in my family cries every day, no, he cries all the time! It's noisy! ”

"Come on, February. Sister Shuanglan is still young. ”

“...... That Yan Mei is not big. Forget it, don't mention her. ”

He started laughing with his sister again.

The memory is gone, and the voice in my ears is getting louder.

"Brother, when will the peach blossoms bloom?"

"I don't know."

Xu Jialan saw that her brother didn't even think about it, so she perfunctory her. Very dissatisfied. Then he looked at Yan Feng on the side, expecting her answer.

"Uh. It should be March or April, if I'm not mistaken. ”

Yan Feng thought about it and said lightly.

"Won't you see the peach blossoms soon? It's late February. ”

Yan Yan couldn't help but say.

The peach blossoms are about to bloom, so isn't it far from eating peaches!

Looking at Yan Yan's slanderous look, Xu Jiayue couldn't help but open his mouth.

"Ahem, it's still far from the season of peaches! I had to go in May or June. ”

"Ah, brother. Who wants to eat peaches! I look forward to the peach blossoms because I want to see the peach grove on the low slope, the appearance of the flowers. That must be beautiful! ”

“......”

Xu Jiayue didn't speak again. just set his eyes on Yan Yan's body.

Yan Yan felt the scorching gaze, and unexpectedly blushed, turning his head sideways.

Hmph, what's wrong with wanting to eat peaches!

Xu Jialan said that she just wanted to see peach blossoms? She didn't believe it!

No matter how beautiful the peach blossoms are, they can't be eaten!

Thinking of this, Yan Yan couldn't help but rub his hand against the small sapling in his hand.

I don't know when the cherry saplings in her hands will be able to bloom and bear fruit?

Perhaps, at that time, she had grown up.

On the way, I heard Xu Jiayue say that it is good to plant cherry trees in the yard and keep them in front of you. Sister, she agreed.

So, my sister and I went home, found a place in the fence yard, dug a small hole, and buried the roots of the cherry sapling.

For this reason, my sister carried a small bucket of water and came out.

She and I wet the area around the cherry saplings.

After doing this, my sister and I took out the things we had harvested today, such as wild eggs, wild fungus, wild flowers, etc., and brushed them up.

The two of them got these things done, and her mother-in-law, Zou, also pinched some pea tips and came back.

When she saw what the sisters had brought back, she frowned and didn't say anything.

Just tell them not to do those annoying things, and not to do those dangerous things.

For dinner, I naturally ate pea-tip egg noodles.

The noodles are out of the pot quickly.

The Zou family picked out the bowls one by one, and then Yan Feng and the others served them to the table and ate.

After dinner, Zou put the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen and washed, not forgetting to scoop water for the two of them and let them prepare to wash.

After the two of them finished washing, the sky was already completely dark.

The kerosene lamp at home is shining and heating again.

In the end, under the leadership of her mother-in-law, Zou, everything returned to peace.

As the saying goes, the lights go out and people sleep, no matter how good it is.
