"What I'm saying is that we're going to have to hurry up." Ning Dayuan said as he stepped forward to take the bamboo basket and carried it on his shoulder.

The family of four immediately walked neatly towards the mountain.

In winter, the mountains are shrouded in morning mist, and the branches of the trees are fangs and claws, and there is not a trace of greenery.

The mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, and there are messy stones and thorns everywhere.

"Kids, be careful." The Yun clan hurriedly instructed Ning Zhi and Ning Lidong.

The two little guys hurriedly nodded: "Don't worry, mother, we will be careful." ”

By the time we arrived at the Xiaohe Production Brigade where Yun's mother's house was located, it was almost noon.

Ning Zhi only felt that his limbs were heavy as if they were filled with lead, and he was short of breath, but his little face in the winter was red from the heat.

Although she has internal strength, her body is too weak, and it is too difficult to walk for several hours on the mountain road.

"Zhi'er, are you tired?" Yun looked at the little girl's sweaty appearance, couldn't help but stop, pulled her into his arms, reached out to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and his eyes were full of maternal love and distress.

"Not very tired." In order not to worry her, Ning Zhi hurriedly shook her little head.

"You're sweaty, aren't you tired?" Yun said angrily, and then she took the small kettle hanging around her neck, unscrewed the cap, and put it to the little girl's lips: "Come and drink some water, let's rest for a while before leaving." ”

"Listen to my mother." Ning Zhi took the small kettle with a smile and drank the water with her tender neck up.

After drinking, she handed it to Yun again, her eyebrows crooked: "After walking for so long, I want to come to my mother's family and I am thirsty, so my mother will also drink some." ”

"Okay, okay, mother, drink it, our Zhi'er is really sensible!" Yun touched her little head lovingly, and looked at her eyes more and more lovingly.

Yun smiled shyly, and beckoned his father and brother to drink some water as well.

After resting like this for five minutes, Ning Zhi's family continued to walk towards the village where the Xiaohe Production Brigade was located.

Coincidentally, as soon as they entered the village, they met Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law and Ning Fugui.

The Yun family and Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law's mother's family are both in the same brigade, so it is normal to meet them.

"It's really a narrow road!" Yun couldn't help but whisper, and then ignored it, holding Ning Zhi and Ning Lidong's hands and continuing to walk forward.

When Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law saw them, she also snorted coldly with a bad face, staring at them as if she was looking at an enemy who killed her father.

Originally, the two parties went their own way, and the water did not violate the river water, but as soon as they entered the village, they were forcibly pulled together by the members who were squatting under the big trees and chatting

"Oh, it's the girl from the Yun family and the girl from the Zhang family who are back!" An aunt shouted with a big mouth, and then the others also stared at the Yun family and Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law.

"Yes, auntie." Yun didn't want to pay attention to such a big-mouthed woman, but he still responded out of politeness.

However, the aunt's focus was obviously no longer on her, and after smiling at her, she stared directly at Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law: "Girl of the Zhang family, what did you bring with you when you went back to your parents' house this time, say it so that we can also be greedy?" ”

Since the Zhang family married the most favored youngest son of the Lao Ning family and gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Lao Ning family, she was quite liked by Mrs. Ning, so she also gave her enough face every year and let her bring a lot of good things back to her parents' house.

But this year, Lao Ning's poor family is only left with two side houses, and he has nothing good to eat, so how can there be good things for Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law to take back to her parents' house.

Therefore, this time, Ning Lao's fourth daughter-in-law only brought some wild vegetables and black buns.
