Chapter 52: Inquiring

The summer afternoon in Peach Blossom Village is hot and long, and the farm work in the field no longer needs to be so busy, just pay more attention at a specific time, and people usually use it to do some easier work in the afternoon.

Wash and dry clothes, plant vegetables and weeds in the vegetable garden, or sew clothes at home and weave bamboo baskets to make small furniture.

Bai Mingxuan deliberately chose this time to go to Tao Erniang's house, wanting to inquire about the identity of the young man.

Tao Erniang was alone at home in the house, drying clothes in the yard while the sun was blowing.

"Second Grandma Tao." Bai Mingxuan stepped into the door of the house and shouted crisply.

The Bai family lives close to the two families of Tao Erye, and often comes and goes, usually everything is directly to the door, very close, and the children of the Bai family often go to their house to talk and play, and go to the door when they are free.

Tao Erniang hung up a piece of clothing, turned her head and saw Bai Mingxuan and said with a smile: "It's Mingxuan, why do you have time to come to our house to play today?" I thought you forgot about your second grandmother! ”

"Oh, Grandma Tao is so good, how could I forget you!" Bai Mingxuan hurriedly ran over to confess, and helped unfold the wet clothes in the wooden basin and hang them on the bamboo pole to dry, "I've just been a lot busy lately, didn't I come to see you whenever I was free?" ”

"Hahaha is right, you are also busy, how forgetful you are!" Tao Erniang looked at Bai Mingxuan, who winked at her and was cute, and quipped.

"Oops, Grandma Tao Er~"

"Okay, okay, I won't say it, hahahaha!" Tao Erniang gave up the joke under Bai Mingxuan's coquettishness and continued to dry her clothes.

The plain-colored clothes were hung on the drying rack made of bamboo poles, fluttering lightly in the wind, Tao Erniang pulled Bai Mingxuan to sit on the bamboo bench and scooped a bowl of water.

"Come, drink a bowl of water." Lack of food and clothing are used to it, and farmers have always been so hospitable, and a bowl of water is a simple and simple way of hospitality.

Bai Mingxuan ran all the way over and basked in the sun for a while, and she happened to be thirsty, her face was red, she drank the water in one gulp, and she didn't pay attention to what she didn't drink raw water.

"Drink slowly, and I didn't let me rob you." Tao Erniang waited for her to finish drinking and took out two plums from the bamboo basket hanging on the wall, "Come, how about tasting this plum, the plums that have just ridied for a few days are picked from the plum tree in front of the house." ”

"No, no need, Grandma Tao, you can keep it for yourself to eat, our plum tree is almost ripe." Bai Mingxuan was embarrassed to take other people's things, so she excused herself.

"If you want to eat, you will eat, where are so many words!" Grandma Tao pretended to be angry and glared at her.

It's not nice to push a little thing around, Bai Mingxuan accepted it with a smile a little helplessly.

There is a reason why Tao Erniang likes Bai Mingxuan so much. Tao Erye and Tao Erniang gave birth to a son and a daughter, and after the daughter got married, there was only one son in the family, and the number of people was scarce.

Later, the daughter-in-law gave birth to two more boys and never moved, so Tao Erniang, who had no granddaughter, was particularly fond of the granddaughter of the Bai family. And Bai Mingxuan is not too old or young, just when the little girl is fun, she has a good personality, and she often comes to visit the door, so she has become Tao Erniang's favorite "granddaughter".

Looking at Bai Mingxuan's small gulps, Tao Erniang's eyes revealed a kind smile.

"Second Grandma Tao, I want to ask you about someone." Bai Mingxuan directly said the purpose, "A few days ago, I met a little brother on the back mountain, he ran after the rabbit and accidentally pounced on me, I fell to the ground and was blinded, and then he was startled when he saw me, so he gave me Yangmei to make amends." Second Grandma Tao, do you recognize him? ”

"Knocked you down? Do you hurt? Second Grandma Tao frowned, looking at her vicissitudes of life, her eyes flashed with a trace of worry and nervousness.

Seeing that Grandma Tao Er cared about herself like this, Bai Mingxuan's heart became soft, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously brought a smile, "It's okay, the ground is full of grass, the mud is loose and soft, I don't have anything to do, but he is so nervous that he can't speak." I see that he wears clothes that look like hunting, but we haven't heard of any family in Peach Blossom Village who hunts for a living? ”

"That's good." Tao Erniang breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and thought for a moment, "Listening to what you said, I roughly know who he is." It's just that you ask him what he does? ”

"That day, he gave me a handful of bayberry, and everyone in my family tasted it. Precocious bayberry is not cheap, so I thought about giving something in return next time. ”

"It's hard for you to have this heart."
