Chapter 5: Peach Grove
After lunch, Mo Wei took the ice car to the river to play, but his grandmother was not at ease and followed out.
There were already three and a half children on the river skating in the ice car, they were using ice drills, sliding the ice car, you chased me very lively. The three children Mo Wei all knew, and they were all relatives of the same village.
They were bigger than Mo, and when they saw Mo Wei coming, they showed the demeanor of a brother and asked Mo Wei to come down and play together.
Grandma knew that they were sliding too fast, and it was not safe for Mo Wei to play with them, so she turned her head and saw Xiao Linzi, the sister of the older boy Huzi, who was sitting by the river, and said, "Linzi, don't sit on the stone when it's cold!" Come, come ashore and play something else with Sanjiu, you sit there and watch your brother play, it's time to catch a cold after being motionless for a long time."
Xiao Linzi ran over with a smile and shouted, "Third aunt!"
Grandma turned around and said to Mo Wei: "Sanjiu, you play with your Sister Linzi, let Sister Linzi, take you to find Yang Lacan, and find grandma to roast and eat for you."
After speaking, grandma said to Linzi: "You two play first, I'll go home and bake some sweet potatoes for the two of you, and I'll come to the house to eat sweet potatoes in a while, I'll bake a few more, let your brother and them come too!" ”。
After Grandma left, Linzi pulled Mo Wei to a peach tree by the river. Someone must have planted two rows of neat peach trees on both sides of the river, as if to make a barrier for the river, separating the river from the mountains on the opposite side and the villages on this side.
When the peach blossoms bloom in spring, they look like two pink ribbons from a distance, but unfortunately those two rows of peach trees never bear peaches.
Back then, when no one cared about the indiscriminate logging, someone started the idea of this peach grove. This peach grove has been planted for a long time, and the trunk is already very thick, so it should be able to sell for a good price. But the tree is too big, and it is a bit difficult for anyone who wants to smuggle it away, so some people secretly circle the owners in the village who can take charge of the house, and want everyone to sell the tree together.
At that time, the old abbot of Suolong Temple was still alive, the old abbot asked the grandfather to call the men in the village to the Mo family ancestral hall in the village, the old abbot told the village that the two rows of peach forests were set up by the masters, in order to protect the safety of the people and animals in the village, so many years are the two rows of peach trees for the village to block the disaster, eliminate the difficulty, if the peach forest is gone, the feng shui pattern of the village can change, and no one can save the people in the village if something happens!
Grandpa also warned everyone to stay away from the peach trees and not to fight those peach trees.
Since then, the lazy people in the village have also died of the heart of selling peach trees. Those peach trees have been growing slowly, blooming pink flowers and green leaves every year, but they don't bear a single peach.
Mo Wei was short, and he couldn't find a few Yang La's cans, so he could only follow Xiao Linzi from tree to tree.
Walking and walking, Mo Wei found that the soil under a tree had been moved, Mo Wei became curious, thinking that if someone buried something good, they would find a treasure! Mo Wei hurriedly grabbed Lin Zi and said, "Sister, do you think who buried something?"
Xiao Linzi looked at it, picked up a small branch casually, and told Mo Wei excitedly: "Let's dig it up and have a look!" So he started digging up the loose soil.
Mo Wei also picked up the branches and dug them up.
Not to mention, after digging down more than ten centimeters, they saw the red cloth, and the two children were even more excited.
Xiao Linzi took out the red cloth bag, carefully opened the red cloth bag, and saw that it was a broken wooden comb inside, and said: "It's really unlucky!"
The two children got bored and wrapped the broken wooden comb in cloth and put it back.
I pushed the soil twice, and before I could bury it, I heard someone next to me shouting: "Maureen!"
Lin Zi saw that it was her classmate Mo Xiaomei, so she pulled Mo Wei up and walked over to Mo Xiaomei, who came over.
"What are you two doing?" Xiaomei asked curiously.
"It's okay, Sanjiu and I are looking for Yang Lacan, where are you going?" Xiao Linzi said.
"My mother asked me to go to the store to buy a bag of salt and accompany me!" Xiaomei replied.
"Well, it's okay anyway, let's go!"
Linzi turned around and said to Mo Wei: "Let's accompany Xiaomei to the store first, and then go home!"
Mo Wei: "Uh-huh, uh-huh! He nodded.
The children were idle, the three of them chatted and went shopping for things, and Mo Wei didn't care what happened to the broken wooden comb, why it was buried under the peach tree. But he didn't want his curiosity to cause big trouble!
