Chapter 12: New Clothes

"Ah Huan, is the place where you go to take a bath on weekdays far from home?"

"It's not far away, does my sister want to take a bath?" Ah Huan swallowed the sweet white porridge in his mouth, tilted his head and asked.

"Take a bath?" Without waiting for Qing Dai to answer, Yun Rong, who had just come back with his clothes, took the lead and said, "Not now."

"You're still healed. The river water is cold, and if you catch a cold, it will not be good if it gets hot again. ”

"It's out of the way, it's hot now, it's noon again, the sun is so big, the water should be..."

"No, you can't take such a risk." Yun Rong frowned and interrupted, "If you really feel uncomfortable, I'll boil you some hot water."

"You take advantage of the fact that the sun is big now, you will wipe your body first, and then go after a few days when your body is better."

Qing Dai really wanted to tell Yun Rong that she was very good now, full of energy, and not the slightest weakness.

But looking at Yun Rong's worried look, he couldn't bear to refute her kindness for a while.

"Second aunt, I can take my sister to Xiaoqingshan to take a bath, where the water at the foot of the mountain is hot all year round."

Yun Rong was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly advised: "Ah Huan, you can't run away with your sister."

"That Xiaoqingshan heard that wolves often haunt them, and they are very ferocious, even those hunters don't dare to go up easily now."

"Are there many wild beasts in this mountain?"

"Yes or no." Yun Rong thought she was afraid, and hurriedly comforted: "Don't be afraid, Qingdai, wild beasts are also afraid of people."

"Although our stone village is at the foot of the mountain, there has never been a case of a wild beast hurting a person for so many years."

"Godmother, are there any hunters in the village?"

"Yes, but there aren't many people who go hunting in the mountains anymore."

Seeing her puzzled face, Yun Rong explained: "In the past few years, the climate was not good, and the grain harvest was not much.

"People can't do anything, so they have to go into the mountains to find food.

"There are many people who go, and the prey that can be hunted in the mountains has been almost hunted."

"If that's the case, then how can there be wolves?"

"I don't know about this, I haven't heard of it before, I only heard about it in recent years, maybe I ran out of the depths of the mountains.

"Although I can occasionally hear wolves crying in the middle of the night, I have never heard anyone say that I have seen them, and I am afraid of people."

Yun Rong said and admonished: "You two have to remember, without an adult following, that little green mountain can easily not go up." ”

"Got it, godmother." Qingdai nodded in response, with a well-behaved face.

Seeing that Yun Rong looked like she was still about to admonish, Qing Dai hurriedly changed the topic.

glanced at the clothes in her hand and said, "Godmother didn't have a good rest last night in order to make clothes for me." ”

"It's just a simple change, and it's not troublesome." Hearing her mention her clothes, Yun Rong really didn't bother about the matter of Xiao Qingshan anymore.

opened his mouth to explain: "There is no new fabric at home now, and this dress was made for Ah Huan before."

"She only wore it a few times, and then she washed it and put it away, and it was still new, don't dislike it"

Yun Rong said, and handed the clothes in his hand to Qing Dai.

Hearing that this was Ah Huan's new clothes, Qing Dai subconsciously turned her head to look at Ah Huan on the side.

Seeing the mended clothes on her body, she frowned and said, "How can Ah Huan's new clothes be worn for me."

"Godmother, let's find me your old clothes, I don't think I need to change them, and I don't think it's much bigger."

"It's okay." Ah Huan smiled at her and comforted her warmly: "Ah Huan still has a change of clothes, and those clothes are for my sister to wear." ”

Ah Huan said, snatched the clothes in Yun Rong's hand and stuffed them for her: "The second aunt will make new clothes for Ah Huan, this sister wears them." ”

looked at the old clothes full of patches on Ah Huan's body, and looked at the clothes that were obviously much newer in her hand.

Qingdai only felt that her heart was very warm, and in her impression, children were a little protective of food.

Therefore, when she heard that the clothes were originally Ah Huan's, Qingdai's first reaction was that she was afraid that she would have emotions in her heart.

I've always heard the story of Kong Rong making pears, but that kind of thing has always only existed in textbooks for Qing Dai.

Ah Huan, a child who is only a few years old, knows how to be humble like this.

When his younger brother was Ah Huan's age, let alone asking him for a new dress, he was reluctant to share one of her even a lollipop.

Thinking of her younger brother, Qingdai couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

Even if her younger brother is not as sensible as Ah Huan, she still misses him very much now, as well as her parents....

"Just keep it, this dress is not enough, wait for a few days when your godfather gets the money to copy the book."

"I'll go to the town to buy some new fabrics, and I'll make new ones for you and Ah Huan when the time comes."

Qing Dai nodded when she heard this, and smiled at Ah Huan: "Then thank Ah Huan." ”

"You're welcome, Ah Huan will have new clothes in a few days, and I've earned it."

"You're smart." Yun Rong smiled and nodded her head.

He took the clothes from Qing Dai's hand, unfolded them, and gestured on her.

Ah Huan is actually ten years old now, but he has been malnourished for a long time and looks like he is only about eight years old.

Although she is smaller than Qingdai, she doesn't feel small when she wears this clothes.

Without him, children grow up quickly, often before they have been dressed for a long time, and they have grown a lot taller.

In order to avoid waste, poor families will deliberately make children's clothes much larger so that they can be worn for a longer time.

"This size looks just right, do you want to try it now?"

"I'll try again later." Qing Dai smiled: "I'll change all the dirty clothes on my body and try again." ”

"It's okay, then I'll boil you some hot water, and if you feel uncomfortable, you will wipe your body first."

"I'll burn it myself."

"Second aunt, I can also help my sister boil water together."

"Yes, Ah Huan can help me, godmother can go and do it first if she has something."

Yun Rongtian's work hasn't been finished yet, but he rushed back when he heard that Qing Dai woke up.

Now that she sees that Qingdai and Ah Huan are so sensible, she is also very relieved in her heart.

nodded, and carefully advised: "Okay, then you should be careful yourself, don't get burned." I'll go to the field first. ”

Yun Rong said that, he didn't delay, packed his things and hurried out of the door.

After Yun Rong left, Qing Dai asked Ah Huan while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, "Ah Huan, where is the Xiaoqingshan you said just now?" Far from it? ”

"It's not far away, it's behind." Ah Huan whispered: "Does my sister want to go secretly?" ”

was debunked by a child, and Qingdai was also a little embarrassed.

This little girl looked dumbfounded, and she couldn't see that she was so smart.

"Sister wants to go, I'll take you there."

"Didn't the godmother say that there are wolves, isn't Ah Huan afraid?"

"As long as you don't go into the mountains, the wolf won't come out."

Ah Huan swore and said: "My brother and I often go to the foot of the mountain secretly, and if we are lucky, we can pick a lot of wild vegetables." ”

It turned out to be a habitual offender, Qing Dai held back a smile: "Is the bathing place going into the mountains?" ”

"You don't have to go into the mountain, it's at the foot of the mountain, the water is warm, and it's still hot in winter."
