Chapter 28: Water Chestnut

Wang Liang stood up suddenly, and walked in front of Qiu Bai in a few strides, his expression seemed to be happy and sad.

"You...... You...... I...... I'm ......" also spoke a little incoherently.

"You're stammering!" Qiu Bai said with a smile.

"No, no, I ...... I mean, you're all right, I thought ......" At this, his face turned pale suddenly, and the corners of his mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he never got it out.

To be exact, it's hard to say.

Qiu Bai smiled, "What? You think I'm dead? How is it possible, my life is great! By the way, uncle and aunt are okay, Ah Xiao and Xiaoxiao are okay? ”

Wang Liang nodded, "It's all good, it's all good." ”

"Well, that's good, then I'll go back first." After speaking, he didn't wait for Wang Liang to answer, turned around and went towards Qiu's house.

Wang Liang stood by the courtyard gate, looking at Qiubai's distant figure in the distance, he felt that she was still the same her, there was no change, but he felt that she was no longer his she......

The royal father came out of the house, and saw Wang Liang standing at the gate of the courtyard, looking depressed, so he walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

Wang Liang slowly retracted his gaze and said in a low voice, "Qiubai came here just now."

The royal father was silent for a while, "It's our Wang family who can't stand her......" Back then on the battlefield, Qiu Yuanzhi gave up his life to protect him, otherwise it would not be him Wang Xuetian who came back from the battlefield.

And he can't reciprocate in the same way...... Therefore, it is their Wang family who is sorry for the Qiu family.

Nearly 20 people died in Qingshui Village in one day, including men, women, old and young.

Qingshui Village, which was originally peaceful and peaceful, suddenly became dull.

Qiubai didn't have much time to be sentimental, and the next day, she went alone to the mountain where she had encountered bandits.

On the ground there, there were still stains of blood, the bodies of the few dead bandits were gone, and the bodies of Xiao Huang and Xiao Hua were still lying in place, and the corpses had some smell due to the hot weather.

Qiubai took out a small shovel from the back basket, found a place to dig a pit on the flat side of the tree, and buried the little yellow flower.

She patted the dirt off her body and stood for a moment in front of the small mound where the little yellow flowers were buried.

When he went down to the foot of the mountain, he saw Wang Liang squatting on a stone and hurriedly stood up after seeing her.

"Are you waiting for me?" Qiubai was a little surprised.

Wang Liang nodded, "Hmm." ”

"How did you know I was here? Do you have something to do with me? Qiubai asked.

"It's nothing...... Wang Liang said a little crampedly.

Qiubai thought, Wang Liang's heart must be very tormented...... But some things happen just as they happen and can't be changed.

"Well, I'm going to look for you." Autumn White Road.

Wang Liang was very happy when he heard this, and his whole person became angry, "Ah, what are you looking for me?" ”

Qiubai turned his back, reached out and lifted the hem of his clothes, and took out a silk flower from the small bag at his waist.

The silk flowers were very ordinary, and the color was a little faded.

Wang Liang looked at the silk flower, and his face was slightly red.

"This, I think...... I still have to pay it back to you. Qiubai lifted the silk flower and handed it to Wang Liang.

Wang Liang's slightly red face suddenly turned white, and he was silent for a while before he spoke: "How can you take back what you sent out!" After speaking, he didn't look at Qiubai, turned around and left, walking hurriedly.

Qiubai looked at Wang Liang's injured back, and his heart was also very uncomfortable.

She thought that she wanted to marry him just because he was just right, but she didn't know when she started to like him faintly......

Returning home in despair, Qiu Ling and Qiu Doudou were breaking corn under the eaves, and Qiu Xiaobao was playing with Xiao Gray.

Qiu Bai picked up the fishing rod on the side of the courtyard and said to Qiu Ling: "If I go fishing, will you go?"

Hearing this, Qiu Ling hurriedly put down the corn in his hand and patted the dust on his body, "There are so many people who have just died in the village, it's unlucky, or wait until the first seven days to go, it's safer." ”

Qiu Bai said meaninglessly: "It's okay, don't do bad things during the day, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night." Besides, don't my father and mother still bless us, what are we afraid of? ”

Qiu Ling also felt justified when she heard this, "Yes, my father and mother bless our sister and brother in heaven." After saying that, the back basket and Qiubai went out.

"By the way, I decided to raise a few chickens, you wait for me here, I'll go to Uncle Zhang's house and ask." Uncle Zhang's family was lucky, on the day the thieves came, their whole family went to their father-in-law's house to visit relatives, and fortunately escaped the catastrophe.

Qiubai walked to the gate of the courtyard and raised his hand and knocked on the door, and it was Uncle Zhang who came to open the door.

"Uncle!" Qiu Bai shouted very politely.

"Xiaoqiu, what's the matter with your uncle?" Uncle Zhang asked.

"Uncle, I want to catch a few chickens to raise, I don't know if there are any now?"

"Well, I'll help you ask, if there's any. I'll catch a few for you. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang!"

Qiu Bai thanked Uncle Zhang very politely, and went to the west with Qiu Ling.

To the west is a flat land with many rivers, so Qiubai wants to see if there will be more fish.

In those ravines, it's hard to catch fish even if you go into the cage.

The two sisters came to a small river, where there were many green plants floating on the river, with thicker leaves, bright green colors, and some fan-like shapes.

Qiubai felt a little familiar, and when he got closer, he bent down and picked up a plant to take a look, and saw a lot of black things hanging from the roots with curved corners at both ends.

"Water chestnut yes!" When Qiu Ling saw it, she was going to die of happiness.

Qiubai was also excited, "Wow! So much! He hurriedly took off his back basket, took off the water chestnut and put it in the back basket.

The bottom of the river is not steep, and the water is not deep.

The two sisters pulled up the hem of their trousers and scooped up all the water chestnuts on the edge.
