Chapter 229: Preparations for Going to Jiangcheng

"But ......"

Amy interrupted what Minco was about to say:

"Mingke, you're still not a man, I've talked about this, what else do you need to hesitate about. Let me ask you, do you still like me? ”

"I like it!"

Mingke replied without hesitation.

"Okay, remember your words, if I hear the word breakup again, no matter what the reason, I will definitely kick you into the back mountain to feed the wolf."

Ming Ke pursed his lips, put what he wanted to say in his stomach, and looked at her, his eyes were full of helplessness.

He stretched out his hand and wiped the tears from her face, his heart was very complicated, and he was happy that she had him in his heart, and he was sad that he couldn't give her a stable future.

Amy seemed to see what was going on in his heart, took her hand, and pointed to the crops in the field not far away:

"You see, the wheat we planted this year has grown so tall and green, and it will make you feel good when you look at it."

This is not wrong, in recent years, there has been no shortage of rain in Mao'er Village, as long as it is a little drier, there will definitely be rain the next day, and other counties have to dig ditches to divert river water, but Mao'er Village does not need it at all.

It is also for this reason that the growth of crops in Mao'er Village is particularly gratifying, but in a month's time, the wheat seedlings rise from the ground, standing on the ridge of the field and looking down, there is a green patch everywhere.

Not only that, but the air near the field is also very fresh, and Amy wants to run here when she has nothing to do, and the breeze here seems to blow away all the bad moods of people. It makes people forget their troubles, and their eyes and hearts are full of beautiful scenery in front of them.

Minke followed her finger and looked at it, his mood was really much better, and he even thought that if he stayed in a village like this with Amy for the rest of his life, it seemed to be a good choice.

"How? Isn't it beautiful, although this city is prosperous, but it is also very noisy and tiresome, if we really can't go back to the big city, we can stay in the village and live a prosperous life. ”

Amy looked at the faint smile on his face, and the grievance and anger just now also dissipated. She pulled him tightly, not worried about the future at all.

Don't forget, she owns a supermarket! Even if the two of them are poor and can't eat, she can ensure that the two of them will not starve to death.

"Well, I apologize to you for what I just said."

Minke turned and stood face to face with her, putting his arms on her shoulders against her forehead and whispering.

"Humph! I'll forgive you for the time being, if there is a next time, I will definitely break up with you, dump you bastard, and find a man who hurts me to the bone again. ”

She snorted and reached out to pinch his nose and shake it from side to side, threatening him.

"No, don't worry, I will never let you have this chance."

After saying that, Ming Ke raised his head, held her cheeks with both hands, and gently dropped a kiss on her forehead.

"Hmph, count you as acquaintances, let's go! We have to hurry up the mountain, this time we go to Jiangcheng, and I don't know how long it will take, Grandma Wang's legs and feet are not good, we have to prepare enough firewood. ”

"Good!"

From a distance, two people in the field held hands, swaying back and forth, walking in the direction of the back mountain.

On the back hill, the big tree grew new branches, and the soles of their feet were full of dead branches and leaves, and Amy and Minke bent down to pick up the longer branches and pile them together.

After half an hour, when the branches were almost piled up, Minke untied a hemp rope from his waist, tied them together, and carried them on his back.

Amy also took out a hemp rope and carried it to herself, and he held her hand:

"These branches are very heavy, and they will accidentally scratch you, so you better not carry them, I'll just run again in a while."

She thought for a moment, nodded, and pulled the rope out.

After four or five trips back and forth, the firewood in the house piled up a whole wall, and Amy nodded with satisfaction:

"Now, it should be able to burn for a while."

Grandma Wang took a bowl of water in her hand, trembling and walking in front of Ming Ke with a cane, handed it to him and said:

"I told you not to carry it a long time ago, although I am old, I still have the strength to get some firewood."

"Grandma, what you said, Ming Ke and I have nothing to do, it's better to find some work to do if you're idle, just exercise your body."

Amy walked up to her, sat her down, and smiled comfortingly.

"You little slippery head, don't think I don't know, you opened your mouth this afternoon, and the hard work of carrying firewood was all done by Xiao Ming."

Grandma Wang smiled and showed her missing teeth and pointed her head with her finger.

"Heck, he's my boyfriend, of course he's going to have to do this kind of hard work."

She raised her chin slightly, her face straightened.

"You!"

That night, Amy felt sorry for Minke after working all afternoon, so she didn't take him to the study class, and told him to rest well at home and go to bed early.

Ming Ke read the book for a while, looked out the window and the sky was getting darker and darker, and he couldn't rest assured that the two of them were in a hurry, so he came to the study class at the end of class.

Those educated youths who were reluctant to let Ming Ke go to class with them, when they saw Ming Ke standing at the door, they thought that what they said had an effect, and the village party secretary called him over to talk and didn't let him come to the study class.

Thinking of this, the educated youths were all happy, and when they passed by Mingke, they were also high, and they had an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Amy and Minke ignored them directly, and the two took Niu Niu's hand and walked towards the house while discussing the problems in the book.

The next day, before the rooster crowed, Amy cleaned herself up, and she found several cloth bags of grain from the kitchen, and a lot of, and waited for Uncle Li's ox cart to come and set off.

This time, it was rare that Amy didn't bring Mingke, she walked around the street for a while, found a deserted alley and took out all the things she wanted to use, and dragged it to Uncle Li's ox cart with great difficulty.

"Xiaomi! Buying so many things again? ”

Uncle Li asked as he put his things on the ox cart.

"Yes, no, tomorrow I will go to Jiangcheng with Ming Ke to sell mushrooms, I don't know if I have to leave for a few days this time, there is only one old man and one child at home, I am not at ease, buy more, at least I can ensure that they will not be hungry."

Amy put the last bag of coarse grain on the bullock cart and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her face.

At this time, Liu Jianfang walked over with an unhappy face, still holding a torn letter in his hand.

She walked up to the ox cart and sat down as if she hadn't seen the two men even say hello.

Amy and Uncle Li glanced at each other, and then sat down in their respective seats.

Uncle Li drove the ox cart to the village, Liu Jianfang screamed, he stopped the ox cart and turned his head and asked:

"Baby, what's wrong?"

"Uncle Li? What are the things on this bullock cart, it made my pants white, and this is the clothes I just washed yesterday. ”

Liu Jianfang pouted and patted his trouser legs with an unhappy expression.

Amy took the bag of coarse grain noodles next to her to herself.

Her original intention was to calm things down, but she didn't fall into the eyes of the other party, but she thought that Amy was afraid of her:

"Amy, I didn't say you, why did you buy so much food? Don't you know that Uncle Li's oxcart is small? ”

"I didn't spend your ticket, what are you calling?"

Amy grimaced, and put the food back to herself.

The people from other villages sitting opposite each other all had expressions of watching the play.

"Yes, your family has money, but you can't do that, look at this ox cart, it's all your stuff. We don't have a place to put our feet, we can't be so selfish! ”

Liu Jianfang pursed her lips in disgust and patted her trouser legs, which had nothing left.

The women from the nearby villages, seeing the excitement, were not a big deal, and one of them grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and said while eating:

"That's right, this comrade is right, we don't have a place to put our feet. Then again, little comrade, what did you buy in those bags? ”

Seeing that the aunts were staring straight at their bags, Amy smiled and said:

"It's nothing, it's just some food."

The woman pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice:

"It's really stingy, you show me and I won't miss you."

Uncle Li listened to it for a long time, felt that there was no big problem, shouted loudly, and drove the scalper back on the road.

Back at home, Grandma Wang and the others were still waiting for Amy, who didn't come back, as usual.

Amy got out of the cart and shouted, and the whole family came out to get something.

With so much food, Grandma Wang inevitably has to count a few words:

"Mi! Why did you buy so many things again, you have to spend a lot of money on this trip today! ”

"Grandma, these things didn't cost much, I saw that there was not much food in the cabinet yesterday, I have to go to Jiangcheng with Mingke tomorrow I don't know when I will come back, I can't buy some food for you and Niuniu to settle you down!"

Amy turned her head and talked to Grandma Wang as she received the grain into the cupboard.

"Where can I use you, there is no food at home, I can borrow some from Aunt Zhou first, and then we will return it to them when the food comes down in the autumn?"

Grandma Wang sat on the kang and looked at the grain bags around her, a little distressed, but more moved. Although Amy's child is not related to them, she clearly feels in her heart that this child treats her as her own grandmother. There are no good things that are all close to her and Niuniu, and there is no reluctance at all.

"Oh, that's so troublesome, you have to pay it back if you borrow it, it's better to buy some, settle down, and don't have to worry about it in your heart all day."

Amy replied casually.

"Anyway! I can't say you can't do it, what do you like! Remember to come over for dinner after cleaning up. ”

Grandma Wang smiled, and there was a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"Okay, okay, right away."
