Legend has it that the first day of the fourth month of April is the day when the two immortal grandmothers appear, and it is the leisure time of the farm, and the old and young, men and women in the warm village, will go to the temple fair on the Liuxian Street in the city. In the past three days, the grass opera troupe on the earthen stage in front of the temple is singing some excerpts of subduing demons and subduing demons, and the gods are chattering, Xu Youran is not happy, because he wants to please Yang Yizhi, who is a storyteller, he pulled his third nephew Long Jin, and went to the riverside to pick some miscellaneous vegetables and dumplings to eat.

"Resist locusts, fight floods, fight drought demons, rain down, punish evil culprits, cultivate immortal roads, and help sheji," Long Jin was born in vain, handsome, although he was only a year of dancing spoons, he was almost six feet tall, and he was a head taller than Xu Youran. Xu Youran pursed his lips, and as soon as he muttered a sentence, he shook his head, like a gentleman in the academy, boring and tight. Xu Youran glanced at him, and saw that his hairband was stained with a little catkins hairball, so he tiptoed to help him choose, Long Jin felt a secret pleasure in his heart, and because of the rules, he said to him left and right: "This temple fair event is not worse than the New Year, why don't you go to join in the fun, little loach, and look for your mother-in-law to eat on this cold and deserted riverside." ”

"Where is it deserted, you see that there are still aunts and aunts by the river; Besides, there are too many people, how can there be miscellaneous vegetables for us," Xu Youran stretched out his small hand from his sleeve and pointed to the women in Linze Huanyi by the river from a distance. This finger is indeed darker than everyone's beautiful little jasper, who made her the daughter of a pig killer, rising at sunrise and resting at sunset, going up the mountain to cut grass and down the mountain to feed the pigs. However, Xu Youran thinks of himself as high, and would rather be a rabbit jumping around the mountains than a canary in the golden house, and he can't ask for half a point of freedom, "Daddy accompanied Erniang to the Erxian Grandma Temple to offer incense, and kept me to watch the house." ”

"I heard that the second immortal grandmother is in charge of childbirth, and the incense is prosperous, your second mother will definitely be able to look forward to a good life, and give birth to a big fat boy and wish." Long Jin pouted his ass and looked for it on the riverbank with one foot and one foot shallow on the other, Xu Youran's eyes were gloomy, staring at his clumsy back, and did not tell Long Jin that Erniang said that she would pray with them and would be unlucky.

"But the Xu family has an extra pig slaughterer, I'm a fisherman going home, I don't care about (the lake)."

"Seeing that you feed the pigs every day, where did you learn to be sharp?" Long Jin snorted and blew the hairband that floated to his mouth behind his head.

"This girl is natural, where can you reach it." The two squatted in the mud and gossiped for the first time in a long time. If it weren't for the sudden death of the little flower who was waiting for Long Jin, Long Jin would not have been able to go home to save his relatives and look for the next girl by the way. Girl, girl, it sounds good, but she is just a child daughter-in-law raised by the Long family, Xu Youran is deaf and clear-sighted, and she can't see through it.

"Nonsense, you crazy girl, didn't you take time to go to Los Angeles to listen to books."

Xu Youran smiled and opened the topic, "Eh, there's one here, get a rake." ”

Long Jin obeyed, and handed her a wooden rake made of willow trunks, which was suitable for rattan baskets, but not for knives; Just as Long Jin is gentle and obedient on the surface, he is a good apprentice of Mr. Academy, and he can't be a prodigal son of the prodigal son of the mountain. In the township, they all look forward to him being admitted to Tongsheng, and even be a show like his father Long Yuan and eldest brother Long Ran, all the way to high school, adding glory to his hometown father and family clan. How did they know that Long Jin's private wish was nothing more than to be a carpenter, open a workshop, marry a wife, give birth to a son, and have children and grandchildren in old age.

Xu leisurely dug up the soil next to him, dug straight to the roots, pulled it out, and put it into the willow rattan basket that Long Jinti slipped in. Before the spring is strong, the flowers have not yet bloomed, and the dark brown achenes hide among the jagged leaves, which is the time when the rhizomes and branches are fresh and delicious.

"Do you know that this mother-in-law, also known as bedwetting grass, is cold, returns to the liver meridian, and has a diuretic effect, a young man as old as you, eat a few trees, and draw a map on the mattress at night." Xu Youran deliberately teased Long Jin with a sentence of truth and falsehood, and he was idle anyway.

"It's a good idea, how do you know all these strange doorways." Long Jin chattered on his lips, his hands were not idle, he learned to behave, pulled out a plant with his hands, and gently put it into the basket. As soon as he said that, he felt remorse - Xu Youran's mother was a medicine lady in the Zhangjia Medical Center in Los Angeles, because she was flooded with smallpox four years ago, she took Xu Youran's eldest sister back to the hospital to help, but unfortunately contracted smallpox, so she drove to the west. Xu Zhang's Yu Longjin had the grace to save his life, and his fate with Xu Youran also started from that smallpox.

Xu Youran squatted and took a step forward, and sighed: "If my mother hadn't gone early, I would have known more...... Last time, I saw your second uncle's throat swollen like a walnut, and my mother-in-law Ding just cleared his throat and made him feel more comfortable. ”

"Then you can pick some more, the second uncle said that he makes a living, and his voice is important, and this guy who eats can't be poured." Long Jin intended to "make meritorious contributions", pretending to be in high spirits, arching back and forth between the dirt, like a little beast that eats insects. Xu Youran looked at him with his chin in his hand, snickering in his heart, saying that he was kind and lovable, or was he naïve and stupid, why did he just say a few words, if there was a bad guy kidnapped in the future, eighty percent would be taken away.

Speaking of bugs...... Xu Youran's heart moved, and while saying words that matterless, he picked here and there in the mud, "Don't look at this grass as insignificant, let us pick it, and when this flower blooms, the fluff will disperse with the wind to all parts of the rivers and lakes. ”

Seeing Long Jin pondering, Xu Youran put a soft and tender mantile caterpillar that he had just picked out from the mud and put it on his back, he saw the caterpillar, the two-eyed cockfight, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly jumped up, shaking his hands and feet with a shout, making her happy, covering her stomach and rolling on the ground.

When I dreamed back to the two little guesses, I smiled and smiled. Ten years later, in the night rain, Long Jin woke up from his sleep, leaving only a long sigh for the dark night.

At this moment, seeing that Long Jin was so angry that he jumped to his feet, Xu Youran hurriedly shook the soil, stood up, and clasped his trembling hands in his small black paws, as a mother comforting her young son, comforting her with a good voice, and when she opened her palm, there were a few more crystal clear beads in her palm, just like solidified morning dew.

Long Jin was instantly attracted by the things in the palm of his hand, and he flicked the small beads with his fingers and rolled them around in the palm of his hand: "All the greens in the world take the opportunity to hold them and gather into crystal clear drops." ”

"It's a four-legged snake's egg, it's beautiful."

Before Xu Youran's words fell, Long Jin's hands shook and the dew in his heart fell to the ground. He was finally finished with his good temper, crossed his hands on his waist, and scolded her: "Xu Loach, you yellow-haired girl, why are you like a little rogue at the entrance of the village, turn to a good bully reader, heaven is unfair, heaven is unfair!" ”

When Xu Youran heard this, he shouted: "Why are those fools at the entrance of the village bullying you, you tell me, I'll go find trouble with them!" ”

"That's it, a gentleman doesn't care about villains." Long Jin returned to his old-fashioned appearance, Xu Youran said in his heart, hey, I still like his appearance as a teenager who was bullied by me and jumped to his feet, that is flesh and blood, which makes people worry, "What else do you want to pick, I will pull it out together." ”

"Enough mixed vegetables, let's go to the tree and touch a few birds' eggs, and go to my kitchen to steal a bowl of flour, what do you think?" Xu Youran smiled skillfully and pulled him into the water as usual.

After Xu Youran and Long Jin finished wrapping dumplings and walked into Jianxi with a food box, the temple fair was almost dispersed. Xu Youran didn't have much interest in singing, running, and stilt tunes, but it was a pity that he missed the acrobatics. Seeing her lonely face, Long Jin patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, how can the temple fair of the second immortal grandmother be compared to the Guanlin temple fair, and when the king of May 13 is born, I will have a good time with you, okay?" ”

When the time comes, he will entertain the gods for three days, and he will look good, Xu Youran's eyes lit up, and he immediately swore with Long Jin, for fear that he would release the pigeons. When the two let go of their hands, Xu Youran put himself in his shoes and became distressed: "You have to go to school, and you have a lot of homework, how can you have time to accompany me, a little girl." ”

"Then I'll write faster." Long Jin smiled slightly, pulled Xu Youran's sleeve, and walked towards Liuxian Street, Xu Youran was dragged by him like this, there was no discomfort in his heart, but a little joy.

Sure enough, most of the troupe at the entrance of the temple has dispersed, and those who have not dispersed have also begun to sing the Divine Comedy, and the tributes are withdrawn at the sound of firecrackers, and the smoke of gunpowder is filled around, which is quite choking. However, the stalls that do business, sell snacks, and sell incense in the distance have not been removed, perhaps like Xu Youran, waiting for the performance before the end.

said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, in the atmosphere of Xiao Suo, Second Uncle Long limped and dragged a small table to the stage, and left the field with a crooked body.

"Yikes! What's going on, why did that cripple come to the stage to show his ugliness? Hearing someone whispering on the side, Xu Youran was unhappy.

"Shhh, just say a few words, this is the descendant of Wanmu Library, telling the story is a must, maybe there will be a big future in the future!" The other person replied, Xu Youran was secretly proud, forgetting the unhappiness just now.

Speaking of the Long family, it was originally a Kanto surname, but because of the war a hundred years ago, it moved a few branches into Shanxi, Xiaheluo, and spread branches until today. Second Uncle Long has suffered from a stubborn disease since he was a child, and he is lame on one foot, and the center of gravity of the whole person is leaning on the left, so that his right leg is much thinner than his left leg, and his face has a strange appearance; Perhaps it was because of this that the Long family did not spend more effort on him, allowing him to make friends with three sects and nine streams on the rivers and lakes. More than two years ago, Second Uncle Long joined Wanmu Library, known as Yang Yizhi, and since then he has been telling stories in nearby villages and towns for a living. In Xu Youran's eyes, it is more beautiful than Long Xiucai, who deals with parents in the village.

When the sound of firecrackers stopped in the distance, I saw Yang Yizhi slipping a chair on stage, he wore a square scarf, wore a green cloth straight clothes, and stepped on a brown leather tie. After he finished tidying up his clothes, he sat down in a sassy manner, and no one next to him talked about the strange things about the two immortal grandmothers.
