Because when she heard Brother Xiao Ding say this, Lin Saiyu was stunned, and before she asked again, she had already started to deliver the goods and called Brother Xiao Ding to help.

"There are a dozen old ones left, but it's enough for you to seed?" Su Jinnan walked over at this time and said, seeing that she was not wrapped in a headscarf, and her head was blown by the wind, he helped her take a sip.

Lin Saiyu looked back at it, nodded, and said, "It's enough, it's not a rare thing, it's not worth bringing back to my sisters." ”

Su Jinnan saw that her face was wrong, so she asked, Lin Saiyu thought for a moment, said Brother Xiaoding's words, frowned, and said, "Could it be that Old Madam Liu is sick?" When did Ying'er know? ”

Su Jinnan smiled: "What's the matter, don't worry, I'll let people ask." Lin Saiyu lost it and didn't ask anymore, and now the husband and wife saw that everyone was carrying pumpkins in a disorderly manner, because they saw that the pigs running around the yard should also be slaughtered, so they let people catch one and kill it, and the autumn society will be convenient for the tenants to eat in the future, and the news spread to celebrate in the village, and the Lu family had to follow the nagging and wasting money.

"We don't often stay here, her brothers and sisters are young, and her grandmother is not in good health, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and there will be few people in the future, a few baskets of vegetables and a pig are not worth a few dollars, buy some hearts, and the eldest sister is not at ease in the south." Su Jinnan said with a smile while dragging the golden egg of the whole brother who was running around.

Lu Shi glanced at Lin Saiyu and said, "Son-in-law, she has that heart!" Having said that, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and he patted Su Jinnan's hand and said, "My son, you are like my own child." ”

Lin Saiyu was eating melon seeds on the side and only laughed and didn't speak, Cao Sanlang came back from the yard, Lu Shi rushed to cook, Lin Saiyu waved his hand and said: "My mother-in-law is at home, don't eat here, don't be busy." The party said, clapped his hands, pulled his brother to leave, and shouted Jindan: "Come to pick you up early tomorrow, don't lie in bed, I won't spare you if you delay your homework." ”

Golden Egg is now a head taller than the original, still stout and strong, because he was trapped in this summer to study with his brother, his complexion was pale, after Mrs. Su came, she couldn't look down on his rustic dress, and cut a new moon white shirt for him, wearing it at this time, it was also decent, but his face was wrinkled, full of sorrow, twisted Lu's hand and said: "Mother, I can't learn those, you tell my sister, spare me, and if you go again, your hands will be broken, and the dog is left with Baotong them, and I laugh when I see it, and only say that I will be a master in the future, I don't play with me, and I'm very angry. ”

Lu Shi took a bite of his ear and said: "It's so small-eyed and thin-skinned, you know what to rely on, thanks to your brother-in-law's support, let you study, and earn a reputation for your mother in the future, save a lifetime of digging in the soil like your father." ”

The scolded golden egg didn't dare to speak, Lin Saiyu didn't like to hear this, and said: "Mother, what's wrong with the food in the soil?" Can't dig up good food in the soil? was smashed by Lu Shi who pulled out his shoes and scolded him, hurriedly shrunk his neck and hugged his brother and left, Su Jinnan laughed behind him.

In the blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather turned cooler, Mrs. Su rushed a few temples in the city, watched a few plays, went to the orchard of Shifang Village to pick fruits, fed pigs and chickens for a few days, and quarreled with Lu Shi for a few days, and then began to shout and bored, to go home, the cotton in Lindsay's jade field is ripe, but it does not grow well, the velvet is coarse, the amount is small, because they do not plan to use, most of them stay in the ground, look at the alternative varieties every day, and take a few to look at the yard, guide the management of fruit trees in autumn and winter, and are so busy that their feet do not touch the ground, and the days of going to Jiangning are postponed one day by day, was scolded by Mrs. Su at home and couldn't stand, so she simply used the excuse of working to live in the orchard.

After pouring water all morning on this day, Widow Wu came out of the son, carrying a cloak made of parrot green silk.

Lin Saiyu hurriedly stood up and took it, and said, "What are you doing with this!" and he was not short of clothes. After thanking her for her kindness, Widow Wu asked her why she was not yet in shape, and said, "I should find someone to take a look." She also said that there was a mother-in-law in the village not far away, and she prepared good medicine, and Lin Saiyu knew her kindness, but she was a little impatient to hear it, and when she was about to say goodbye, the whole brother ran over with the golden egg, followed by a group of children holding branches.

"Just in time." Lin Saiyu hurriedly stood up, pulled one in one hand and said, "You are also naughty when you are idle, cut the grass in the garden for me." ”

"Then I won't go to school tomorrow?" Jin Dan hurriedly raised his hand and asked, seeing Lin Saiyu nodding, he was immediately happy for the New Year.

"Then I'm going to listen to Sun Monkey's story." The whole brother dragged the road, and seeing that Lindsay Yu also agreed, he jumped up and down and drove the children away.

At this time, outside the village of Shifang, a horse and a donkey were walking, and the sound of the sound alarmed several village women who were burning incense in front of the land temple, looking up, and seeing that the donkey was a teenager boy, with a handsome face and a small hat, and his eyes fell on the person who got up the horse behind him, and saw that it was a gold belt tied with a purple silk robe and a white jade ring, which was really well-dressed, and his eyes fell on the person's face, they were slightly stunned, this person had a handsome face, and his bearing was graceful, and when he saw them, the son smiled slightly, and said: "The ladies pray for blessings?" Good harvest this year, right? The line said that it passed.

The women looked at each other, and they all felt familiar, but they could not remember who they were, and saw that they had gone to the village.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the autumn scenery is already solemn, most of the farmland in Shifang Village is rice has matured and is being harvested, and the sorghum and millet dotted in it have also hung their heads.

"It's a good year." Liu Xiaohu muttered to himself.

"It's the same as before, nothing has changed." Brother Bang said with a little excitement, while carefully looking back at Liu Xiaohu's face, seeing that he was just smiling slightly, he was relieved.

"I haven't been back since nine years since Xining," Liu Xiaohu said in a low voice, pointing to the land that had just been ploughed on the side of the road, "At that time, there was wasteland everywhere, but now it has become good land." Saying this, he looked up and saw that the village was surrounded by green trees, and subconsciously reined in his horse.

"Sir?" Brother Bang, who was moving forward, turned around in surprise and called.

"Don't go into the village, just walk along the road to the fields." Liu Xiaohu said slowly, urged the horse forward, crossed Brother Bang, stood in front of the big black jujube tree at the entrance of the village for a while, and walked to the left familiarly.

"Why don't you grow vegetables?" Standing on the ground, Liu Xiaohu lost his mind for a moment, seeing that the original greenhouse vegetable land had been bulldozed, and four or five tenants were sowing seeds in it, feeling that someone was watching, a farmer raised his eyes and said: "This official, we don't grow vegetables here, if you want vegetables, please go to Guojiazhuang in the south of the city, if you want chickens, ducks, pigs, and grass, and then go forward to the hillside." He pointed his hand as he spoke.

Liu Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, then thanked him, and when he saw the farmer waving his hand and lowering his head to get busy, he couldn't help but feel stunned in his heart, and muttered: "Now, they don't recognize me anymore." When he lowered his head, he saw a piece of cotton scattered with white velvet in the field, and he was stunned and said, "This is...?" ”

A farmer who passed by with a hoe heard it, and said honestly: "This is the cotton planted by the eldest lady, but it is not bought for people to look at, and the eldest lady does not sell it, saying that we will plant it in a few days." ”

Liu Xiaohu looked at the farmer in a bit of a daze, saw that he had already grunted away, smiled bitterly, and muttered: "Cao Liu'er, you don't know me anymore..."

In fact, it's no wonder that the villagers, Liu Xiaohu rarely interacted with people in the village back then, and he entered Beijing as soon as he became famous, plus who can recognize him as the shabby teenager he was when he is dressed now?

"Sir?" Brother Bang said in a low voice, "But where are you going?" ”

Liu Xiaohu came back to his senses, looked at the hillside not far away, and saw that the hills that were originally barren slopes and wilderness were thick and green at this time, progressing layer by layer, neatly and neatly, so he urged the horse forward, and said to himself: "The layout is so good, this is the orchard she said?" ”

Brother Bang followed with his head bored, and didn't take a few steps, he saw Liu Xiaohu in front of him suddenly stop his horse, so that he almost bumped into it, and without asking, he heard a burst of singing, and hurriedly looked over, and saw that it was a group of children running down the chaotic mountain, each carrying a bundle of grass, and approaching, listening to them sing: "... The white dragon horse's hooves are facing west, dragging Tang Seng and his three apprentices... What demons and monsters, what beautiful women paint skin, what swords, mountains and fires, what traps and tricks, can't stop the fiery eyes... It is not easy to learn from the West, and it is easy to fail to achieve great results..."

Brother Bang was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered what Sun Monkey learned from the scriptures in the teahouse in the city, and the people who said it were very obsessed, and they all said that it was said by the lady Cao of Shifang Village, and he didn't believe it, but now he heard the children singing, so he believed it.

He is now just a teenager, listening to such a paragraph in the teahouse, he was so fascinated that he was reluctant to go, at this time he almost ignored the rules and walked a few steps forward, almost crowded in front of Liu Xiaohu, and saw a woman walking behind the child, wearing a silk dress and a green silk skirt, holding an ingots, and approaching with her sleeves and hands, her face was round, the corners of her eyes were smiling, and she was opening her mouth slightly, singing with the children.

"Sister, sister, can the Monkey King be burned to death by the red boy?" Brother Quan walked at the end, tugging on Lindsay Yu's clothes and kept asking.

"What's it called?" Lin Saiyu slapped his hand, and when he saw the golden egg in front of him, he turned around and laughed, and the laughing brother suddenly blushed, and hurriedly ran away with his hand, and heard the golden egg pull him and say: "Don't worry, Sun Monkey has changed in seventy-two ways, and he will definitely not die... Also, you remember to call me uncle! If you dare to call my name again, I'll beat you! She couldn't help laughing, and before the laughter dissipated, she was stunned, looked at the person standing in front of her, and subconsciously rubbed her eyes.

The young man in front of him showed a familiar smile, his hands sleeved in front of him as always, showing his beautiful teeth.

"Flowers, is that the orchard you want?" The boy reached out and pointed behind her.

Lin Saiyu looked back as if in a dream, accompanied by the young man's slow voice, and suddenly remembered the words of the girl who had just arrived and had a deep fear of the world: "... When I have the money, I will buy that ridge, plant fruit trees, and plant jujube trees, and I will build a big house there, feed the chickens in front of the house, feed the pigs behind the house, graze sheep on the east ridge, and graze cattle on the west ridge..."

Her eyes were sour, her chest was tight, and she couldn't help but clench her hands.

"Congratulations, you've done it now." Liu Xiaohu said, seeing that the woman turned her face a little confused, as if she hadn't woken up from a big dream, she couldn't help but purse her lips and smile.

"Well, why are you here?" Lindsay Yu was stunned.

"Oh, I'm passing by on business, so I'll take a look." Liu Xiaohu said with a smile.

They faced each other a dozen paces apart, and no one took a step forward.

After he finished saying this, Lin Saiyu was stunned again, and the noise of the children in her ears woke her up, and she rubbed her hands a little wryly, and said, "So, let's go and sit at home..." ”

Lin Saiyu let out a sigh when she heard this, and said as if she remembered something: "Mother... No, the old lady, but sick? Seeing that the young man who was about to turn around stopped, smiled sideways with a little gratitude, and said, "It's okay, it's much better now, thank you for your concern." ”

Lindsay always felt that everything was as unreal as a dream, so there was a stupid pestle there to look at the young man, and watched him turn his horse and get off his horse, and the noon sun shone on him without any obstruction, and she couldn't help but squint.

"I listened to it in the city, your story is well told, I'll go back and tell it to my mother, she will like it." The young man said with a smile, seeing that the woman was squinting, stunned for a moment, the horse's hooves turned in place, no longer speaking, turned his head and urged the horse away, Brother Bang hurriedly followed, and soon disappeared at the head of the village.

"Sister, sister, brother-in-law is here to pick you up!" The golden egg's loud voice woke up Lindsey, and with this voice, a tall body blocked the dazzling sunlight.

"Why are you standing under the sun, but you are dazzled?" Su Jinnan's voice sounded in his ears, Lin Saiyu rubbed his eyes that were shaken to tears, and then opened his eyes, and the world was white.

"Brother Jin, Brother Jin," she didn't care about this, and hurriedly grabbed Su Jinnan's hand and said, "Take a look, the person who passed by just now, is it... Isn't it Liu Xiaohu? ”

Su Jinnan looked in the direction she pointed out with some surprise, remembering that when she first walked over, she saw the two of them leaving, and she originally thought it was a merchant who was inquiring about the orchard, but it turned out to be him? He looked up and saw two black dots at the end of the road, which were soon gone.

"You still don't recognize him, how do I recognize him?" Su Jinnan said slowly, his voice tinged with a hint of surprise in his own voice.

Lin Saiyu's gaze had recovered, and when he heard this, he raised his head to examine him, a smile appeared on his lips, and he suddenly reached out and pinched his tight face, and said with a smile: "Oh, Brother Jin is jealous?" ”

Su Jinnan snorted, turned around and ignored her, was surrounded by Lin Saiyu with a smile, shook his hand and said, "Show me, Brother Jin will have a little temper!" Before he could finish speaking, he was embraced into his arms, and his nose hit his strong chest with a faint pain.

"Oh, the kids are watching!" Lin Saiyu said with a sullen smile, but her hand wrapped around his waist, and she heard Su Jinnan whisper behind her neck: "You don't want to run away with him..."

"Fool, you don't want to get rid of me in this life." Lindsay Yu leaned against his chest and smiled, hugging his waist as the children who listened to it shouted "shame, shame" and walked away.
