Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Little Girl's Gift
The little girl was gone, maybe it was raining and it was dark, so I hurried back to the house without thinking too much.
In the next few days, I accompanied the water lotus up the mountain in the morning, and the little girl would come to my place to play with her mobile phone at half past nine in the evening.
It's strange to say, there is no electricity in this place, and the power of my mobile phone shows the bottom every day, but I can't use it even if I do it.
Finding a ginseng doll with Shuilian naturally had no results, but I was also very happy to chat with her all the way up and down the mountain, and Shuilian liked to ask me about life in the city.
I, the little bus driver, told her every day what I had experienced and seen, and Shuilian was often fascinated by it, and agreed with me that I would take her to the city for a trip if I had the chance.
When I was chatting with Shuilian, I mentioned this little girl in red, but Shuilian said that she didn't know that there was such a child in the village.
And what is very special is that the little girl seems to deliberately avoid the water lotus, every time she comes is after the water lotus brings me dinner, sometimes the water lotus delivers the food late, and the two of us will talk for a while until more than ten o'clock, even so, as long as the water lotus leaves, the little girl will appear immediately.
I borrowed a few books from Shuilian to read, as soon as the little girl came, I would make way for her, I lay in it and read on my stomach, she lay next to me and played with her mobile phone, the two of us played our own by ourselves, I don't know, I thought it was a father and daughter.
As for the name of the little girl's family, I have asked many times, but this child said that it was from the village, and nothing else was revealed.
The village is not as good as the city, the people here are simple, there are not so many bad people, and I see that the little girl is not afraid to walk at night, so I gradually ignore her.
After a long time, she and I have become acquainted, and she has always brought me some food a few times recently, and I have basically eaten all kinds of mountain and wild fruits.
Tonight was the same, the little girl had a smile on her face, very sweet and lovely, and she was holding a pile of wild fruits in her hand.
I ate wild fruits and watched, and the little girl lay next to me playing with her phone.
"Little sister, in fact, you are so young, looking at the screen under candlelight every day is not good for your eyes, you should try to come during the day in the future"
I took a bite of the wild fruit and said to the little girl lying on the side.
The little girl replied without raising her head:
"Uncle, it's okay, you don't have to worry about me"
As soon as I heard this, I got angry and whispered:
"You kid, how many times have I told you, I call you sister, you can call me brother, you have to call uncle"
The little girl didn't speak, as if she was going to get into her phone, and pressed hard.
I shook my head, thinking to myself that if this little girl lived in the city, she would be a typical Internet addict.
I saw that she ignored me, and she didn't bother herself, but still looked at me.
After a while, the little girl pressed the screen and asked me:
"Uncle, why do you go up the mountain with a sister every day?"
I was shocked when I heard this, Shuilian and I got up at four or five o'clock every day to climb the mountain, and there were not many villagers outside at that time, how did this little girl know?
I spat the leftover pits on the ground and asked:
"I go up the mountain to look for medicinal herbs, how do you know that I go up the mountain every day? Where do you live? ”
The little girl still did not look up, and said in a low voice:
"What herbs are you looking for, I might be able to help you."
I smiled and touched the little girl's head and said:
"Thank you, sister, you don't need your help, just be obedient at home"
The little girl was still energetic and said:
"You're welcome, just say, what herbs are you looking for?"
Although the little girl has been staring at the screen of her mobile phone, she is quite confident in her tone, could it be that her parents understand medical skills?
I said casually:
"Find ginseng to treat that sister"
When the little girl heard this, she suddenly raised her head, looked at me with wide eyes, and asked:
"What kind of disease is it that you can find ginseng to cure? I think that sister is quite healthy."
This little guy has an innocent look and is really cute, and the tone of his voice is like that of a little adult, yes, I smiled and said:
"That big sister has a birthmark on her face, and it's good to eat ginseng"
The little girl didn't speak anymore, lowered her head and continued to play with her phone.
I read the book for a while, and I was so sleepy that I ignored her and put the book over her face and went to sleep.
When I woke up in the morning, I found that my phone was turned off and placed next to my pillow, and I don't know when the little girl left.
And I noticed that the cup I had put on the cupboard to drink was missing.
The little girl has always been very obedient and never touches my things casually, but where is my water glass?
I didn't pay much attention, and after washing, I still started to climb the mountain with Shuilian, and the beautiful name was: looking for a ginseng doll.
When I went up the mountain, I brought a few little girls to give me wild fruits for the water lotus to eat, and the water lotus was very surprised to see this wild fruit, saying that this kind of fruit is very expensive, and it cannot be picked halfway up the mountain, only at the top of the mountain.
I was also a little puzzled when I heard this, and asked if there was a little girl in the doctor's house in Shuilian Village.
Shuilian shook her head and said that the village doctor was an old man with no children and no daughters under his knees.
I was surprised, I thought that the little girl's parents were village doctors who knew medical skills, so it seemed that I guessed wrong.
In the evening, thunder and lightning began to blow outside, and the thunder was particularly loud tonight, and I was a little scared to hear it, and I thought that the little girl should not be able to come tonight, so I put out the candle and planned to sleep.
I yawned and just lay down when I heard the door open, and I rolled over and got up to light the candle.
After a while, the little girl entered the house, and it was raining very heavily outside, and the little girl looked at me pitifully and asked:
"Uncle, I haven't played with my phone today, why did you put out the candles?"
I got up and quickly took a towel to wipe her head.
I asked, wiping it:
"Little sister, do you wait for your parents to fall asleep before running out every day, they don't know, right?"
The little girl didn't answer me. Mysteriously, he took out my glass of water from his bosom, handed it to me, and said:
"Uncle, give you this"
The water cup was taken by this little girl, and I somehow took it and saw that it still contained half a glass of water.
"You give this cup of water to that sister tomorrow and let her wash her face with this water, and her birthmark will be fine"
What the little girl said was serious, as if I couldn't believe it, I couldn't help but laugh when I looked at her serious appearance, and said okay again and again, put the water cup aside and let the little girl quickly go to bed and go into the bed to warm up.
The little girl was really unkind, so she quickly climbed into bed, wrapped up the quilt and began to play with her mobile phone.
In the past few days, my mobile phone has been played by little girls more and more slippery, will turn on and off by itself, will find games by itself, and also deleted several important things for me by mistake.
I ignored her and sat on the stool.
I don't know how long it took me to fall asleep again, and when the water lotus came to me at dawn, she saw that the water cup on the cabinet was about to be drunk, and I remembered the little girl's words and quickly stopped:
"Don't drink it, that water is for washing your face"
"Wash your face?"
"Well, just wash your face with this birthmark"
I said it casually as if it were a joke and started folding the quilt.
Unexpectedly, Shuilian actually smiled like a flower seriously, and went to the kitchen to wash her face with a glass of water with great interest.
I cleaned up the house, had breakfast, and went up the mountain to look for ginseng dolls like Shuilian's routine.
Along the way, I began to tell Shuilian about the college life I hadn't attended, I could freely choose classes, fall in love freely, sing and play games with my roommates all night, and Shuilian was envious.
In this way, we happily climbed halfway up the mountain, and we began to descend the mountain without any suspense.
The moment I turned around and went down the mountain, I inadvertently skimmed the face of Shuilian with a birthmark, and was surprised to find that the birthmark seemed to have become shallower!!
I told the water lotus not to move, leaned over and took a closer look, and the eye color of the birthmark really changed from the original dark red to a lot lighter.
I suddenly thought of the water that the little girl had sent, and I was shocked!
When Shuilian heard me say that the birthmark had improved, she couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and hurriedly ran down the mountain to look in the mirror.
When I ran down the mountain with her, the birthmark on Shuilian's face had faded and there was no trace of it.
Shuilian doesn't have that nasty birthmark, and now looking at it, her better appearance and delicate skin are really beautiful!
When we were rushing to my house by the lake, the two of us met the old lady Qiu with a red scarf again.
Shuilian looked in the mirror in a hurry, said hello to her briefly, and walked over.
I noticed that Mrs. Qiu saw the face where the water lotus birthmark disappeared, and her expression became very excited!
When I arrived at home, Shuilian saw that the birthmark on her face had disappeared, and she was so excited that she hugged me and thanked me endlessly.
I was embarrassed to accept the big hug.
After a while, she cried with joy again, and said that she wanted to show the whole village and ran out in a hurry.
I sat alone in the room, thinking back to this little girl, it really didn't feel normal, and I had a bold guess, could she be a ginseng doll?
I didn't have a birthmark, I went to Shuilian's heart disease for more than 20 years, and I guess I forgot everything about my happiness, and I didn't come to bring me food from noon to night.
I ate a few wild fruits that the little girl gave me and waited for her to come back to play with her phone tonight.
When it was dark, the little girl came again, and this time with a lot of fruit.
I pretended nothing had happened and made room for him to lie down and read.
The little girl seemed to have forgotten about the water cup last night, and she didn't mention it, just playing with her mobile phone.
In this way, it was late at night, and I began to urge her to go home again, and the little girl reluctantly put down her phone, nodded and went out.
This time I prepared in advance, saying that I would send her off, and after going out with her, the little girl actually walked faster and faster, so fast that I couldn't even trot.
In just a few minutes, the little girl disappeared again, and she was lost!
I scratched my head in confusion, and was about to go home disappointed, when I suddenly found that there were people working in the fields in the distance.
I didn't have a mobile phone, but I knew it was past twelve o'clock, so why were there so many people working in the fields?
I curiously walked over and peeked in, and there were four or five strong men in white clothes who were busy working in this field.
The moonlight was bright tonight, and they were wearing the same white clothes.
I looked at it and looked more and more wrong, and my hair stood on end and my back was cold.
I was surprised to find that these men not only had the same clothes and body shapes, but even their facial features seemed to be exactly the same!!
