In the spring of the second year, as Wang Heng'er said, Xi Linming gave birth to a girl, Wang Houshi and his wife were overjoyed, they named her Wang Fanghua, and Heng'er has had a younger sister since then.

Time passed day by day, and Wang Houshi's family lived very comfortably. Wang Houshi is responsible for the work in the fields, shooting, fishing, etc., to ensure that there is no shortage of food at home; Xi Linming is responsible for weaving, laundry, cooking, and taking Xiao Fang'er at home; Wang Heng'er is not only responsible for helping his parents do some work within his ability, but also often takes care of Xiao Fangmei, and the family lives happily.

Since Fang'er was born, Heng'er's frequent illness has slowly improved, but her body is still thin, a few years have passed, Fangmei has grown up day by day, Heng'er has slowly entered her youth, and Fang'er has also arrived in childhood.

"Brother, come on, there are loaches here, I'll catch them." Fang'er was playing by the stream next to her house, catching loaches, and shouting while catching them. But as soon as she was careless, she fell into the deep water of the stream.

Heng'er was on her side, fishing for fish and shrimp, and when she heard the sound of "porphyr" water, she didn't know it well. As soon as he saw that Fang Mei was gone, he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one and hurriedly dived into the water. In fact, Heng'er didn't know how to swim, but in a hurry, he didn't know that the force that came from him, and he suddenly lifted Fang'er up and leaped out of the water. But Fanghua didn't know all this, she only knew that she drank a few sips of water in the water, and after going ashore, she still looked at Heng'er and smirked.

"Look at you, this is all dangerous! If you tell your father and mother, she will not spare you. ”

"With my brother here, I'm not afraid of anything. However, don't tell your parents. ”

Seeing that Heng'er was silent, Fanghua begged vigorously: "Hmph, don't tell me." ”

"Don't tell anything?" At this time, Wang Houshiqia came back from the field with a load of millet, and when he saw that the two children were like chickens in soup, he knew that they were bathing in the stream and river again. He didn't say a word, so he picked up a short stick and hit Heng'er headlessly. Who knew that this Heng'er had a thin body, but a strong personality, he didn't avoid it at all, and beat his father hard, and Fanghua was scared to cry when she saw this.

Xi Linming heard the cry in the hut, hurriedly came out, and saw that Wang Houshi was beating Heng'er by the river, she hurriedly ran over, snatched Heng'er over, and said, "What are you doing here?

"It's because you protect them that they are so disobedient. ”

"How old is he, you beat him like this. ”

Only then did Heng'er feel that she had really been wronged, threw herself into Xi Linming's arms, and shouted "Mother......" Tears flowed out.

"You kid, your father beats you, you have to avoid it, why let him beat him like this?"

"Mother, I caught the loach and fell into the water, it was my brother who rescued me, and my father beat him!" Fang Hua cried and angrily sued.

When Wang Houshi heard Fanghua's words, he knew that he shouldn't have beaten Heng'er, it was Heng'er who went into the water to save Fanghua, if it wasn't for Heng'er, the consequences would be conceivable. But for the sake of his father's respect, he did not apologize to Heng'er.

"You two children, we parents have told you not to bathe in the streams and rivers many times, and this is all for your own good. We have lost your two elder brothers, if you have three elders and two shorts, how can we live!"

"Dad, mother, Fanghua no longer plays by the river, and she doesn't go to the river to catch loaches. Fang Hua also threw herself into Xi Linming's arms as she spoke.

"Fanghua, it's good to be obedient, you are growing up, you should be obedient, oh. Xi Linming said as he hugged the two children in his arms.

"Heng'er, from now on, I will teach you to learn martial arts, and you have to start from the basic skills. Wang Houshi said this, even if he paid Heng'er.

"Your father taught you martial arts, you have to study hard, go ahead. Xi Linming released Heng'er from his arms.

Heng'er wiped her tears, came to Wang Houshi, and called "Dad" softly.

In this way, their father and son were reconciled as before.

The day after this incident, Heng'er had a high fever, Wang Houshi and Xi Linming both thought that Heng'er was trying to save Fang'er, and the fever caused by a cold, they used fried ginger soup to drink for him to drink, making him sweat. After a few days, Heng'er gradually got better, but her body became thinner again.

After Heng'er recovered from her illness, he took Fang'er's hand and said to her very secretly: "Sister Fang, don't you really want a loach to play, I caught a loach for you that can always be played." ”

"There's a loach like this, show it to me!"

"Okay, you close your eyes first, I told you to open them, and you opened them. ”

"Good. Fanghua closed her eyes and waited for Hengzi's order.

"Open your eyes and see!"

When Fangzi opened her eyes, she saw a yellow loach in front of her eyes, it was a woodcarved loach.

Fangzi took the wooden loach and looked left and right, and couldn't put it down. "This loach is really like it, brother, how did you make it?"

"I carved it out of this sword, knife by knife. ”

"It's fun, brother, can you give it to me?"

"Of course I gave it to my sister. ”

"Brother, you are so good to me. ”

Fanghua played with the woodcarved loaches for a few days, and gradually felt bored.

"Brother, I want the Yellow Sparrow. Fang'er said.

"You wait, my brother will go and catch you. Heng'er climbed up the tree as soon as he returned, took out his little hand into the yellow finch's nest, and took out two little yellow finch.

When Fanghua saw the two yellow birds caught by her brother, she ran and jumped happily, and asked with a smile, "Can we raise them?"

Heng'er said: "Of course you can." ”

"And what about them flying again after they were raised?"

"Then if I make a cage out of twigs and put them in it, won't they be able to fly?"

"This method is good, this method is good!"

Heng'er quickly made a cage out of twigs and put the two little yellow finches in it, and the two of them fed them on time every day. Dozens of days later, the two yellow finches grew up, in the branch cage, running and jumping, and constantly "chirping" non-stop, Fanghua was very happy to see it.

"Brother, are these two birds a male and a female?" Fanghua suddenly asked Heng'er about this.

"Fang Mei, why do you ask this?"

"I want to ask. ”

"This, brother really doesn't know. ”

"You don't know, but I know. ”

"Then tell me about it. ”

"They must be one male and one female. ”

"And how do you know?"

"I often see that the bigger bird is lying on top of the smaller bird and bullying it. This means that the larger bird is male, while the smaller bird is female, a couple. “

"Don't talk nonsense, they're brother and sister. ”

"Then they are brother and sister now, the older brother is the elder brother, the younger sister is the younger sister, just like us, when they grow up they will be husband and wife. Fang Hua smiled.

"Stop talking nonsense. ”

"Well, we'll be husband and wife when we grow up. ”

"We are brother and sister, it is impossible to be husband and wife. ”

"Are we going to be husband and wife, are we going to be husband and wife!" Fang'er cried coquettishly.

At this time, Xi Linming came over and saw Fanghua shouting, so he asked, "Is my brother bullying Fanghua?"

"Yes. Fanghua replied.

"How can a brother bully his sister?" said Xi Linming again.

"I said that we would be husband and wife when we grew up, and he said that we were brother and sister, and it was impossible to be husband and wife. "Fanghua Road.

"Your brother is right, they are brothers and sisters, and they can't be husband and wife. ”

"Well, I'm going to do it! I'm going to do it!"

"Okay, do it, do it, don't cry again. Xi Linming replied casually, the purpose was to coax her to stop crying.

Wang Houshi and Xi Linming saw that the wooden loaches carved by Heng'er and the birdcages made were very good, even if they were difficult to make like this, therefore, they all felt very relieved, thinking that although Heng'er was thin and not the material for learning martial arts, although he spoke late when he was a child, but now it seems that Heng'er is still very smart.
