Chapter 24: Into the Mountain
Song Chunlai glared at the eldest brother, turned around and took a small basket and walked out.
"Do you still dare to go to Xie Ya? The last time we went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, she was good, and caught the old hens on the mountain and burned them, and in the end, they were caught by others, and we were beaten by our mother. My mother said that in the future, she won't let us find Xie Ya to play with that little cripple, so that we won't be affected again. ”
Chunlai said as he walked towards the gate.
Seeing this, Song Chunsheng hurriedly carried a sickle to catch up behind, "Look at you, the Xie Ya family seems to have changed for the better, weren't they hungry before?" Now everyone eats braised pork, and it can't be like that. We live in neighborhoods, so we should get along well. ”
Song Chunlai saw his eldest brother like this, and pouted: "Okay, can't I go to find it?" Big brother wants to bring me some walnuts home, and the mountain grapes are delicious. ”
Seeing that his sister had promised him, Chunsheng grinned hurriedly, revealing two little tiger teeth.
"Cheng Cheng Chengcheng, all of them are dependent on my sister."
Seeing his sister running to Xie Ya's house with a basket, Chunsheng hurriedly ran home, opened the door and saw his mother taking the soles of her shoes on the kang, and busily took out two red apples under the cupboard, and ran out of the door with them in her arms.
"You kid, come back early with your sister up the mountain, there is a lot of rain on this day, and you can't say which cloud has rain."
Xie Shuzhen glanced at her son, admonished uneasily, and began to bow her head and accept the soles of her shoes again.
"Got it, mother."
In the courtyard of Xie Ya's house.
was taken by the tangerine peel to Li Fugui to ask for gambling debts, and the happy white rice and braised pork that he just ate, and then went back to eat, but there was no taste, and the stirring was not eaten well.
After the family of four finished eating, they quickly picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and Xie Ya directly had a clear division of labor.
"Dad, take a break, hurry up and find a way to study a pigsty, my mother and I went to the mountains to collect some pigweed, such a group of pig babies, it really took a little time to figure out how to feed the big, the little brother rested in the house, and my sister treated your injured leg at night."
When Xie Huaxiang and Xu Meili were in modern times, they were often commanded by their daughters to work, to be honest, seeing that their daughters had turned on the commander mode again, Xu Meili felt very good, and seemed to feel that they were back in modern times. It's just that in different eras, a family of three came to this ancient time.
At this time, Song Chunlai ran in the yard and entered the door, Chunlai touched the two pigtails, looked at Xie Ya and said, "Sister Xie Ya, I will go to pick wild fruits on Brother Mountain, will you go?" ”
Xie Ya was looking at the straw sandals under her feet and was worried, and when she saw Chunlai coming in at the door, she hurriedly said: "I'll go up the mountain to hunt pigweed immediately, of course it's better to have wild fruits." ”
So he got up busily, and shouted to the house while looking for something: "Mother, you are at home and my father will find a way to make a pigsty, and Chunlai and I will go to the mountains to hunt pigweed." ”
Xu Meili hurriedly opened the door, saw Chunlai standing timidly at the door of the room, and when she saw herself coming out, she took two steps back very vigilantly, and hurriedly said: "Nacheng, then I will measure and make clothes for you tomorrow." ”
"Okay mother, I love you to death."
Xie Ya took the basket and sickle and went out of the gate, and Song Chunsheng stood not far away and waited there.
The three of them headed directly to the back mountain.
Xu Meili walked out of the door and stood at the gate to see her daughter and the two children of the neighbor Song family going up the mountain, and she was really worried, so she muttered: "Is it safe for these three children to go to the mountain?" Or I'll go with it. ”
Xie Huaxiang was digging a ditch to build a pigsty on the west side of the fence, and when he saw his daughter-in-law so worried, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, other people's children should be able to know the road on the mountain, our daughter is just a pigweed, there will be everywhere in the back mountain, and she will come back in a while." ”
Xu Meili thought about it, turned around and went into the house, and brought out the only bit of coarse corn in the house, "I'll go to Hexi to grind this into noodles, and come back so that the sow can be mixed with pigweed to eat, this pig has enough milk, and the piglet can grow fast." ”
Seeing this, Xie Huaxiang thought about it and said: "Come on, I'll go with you, we are new here, Xie Ya is not by his side yet, the two of them have a good time to take care of, not to mention leaking people's mouths." ”
Xu Meili thought too, "Okay, let's go and come back quickly, my son and this litter of pigs and lambs are still at home." ”
The two of them hurriedly comforted Xi Yuan, took a dustpan of coarse corn, and walked directly to Hexi.
Xie Ya and Song Chunsheng walked along the path to the side of the mountain, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, Chunsheng, who was holding a sickle in front of him, turned around and took out two big red apples from his arms.
"Give your family a big apple and see if it's big?"
Seeing this, Chunlai hurriedly stepped forward and took an apple and said, "Big brother, didn't you say that this apple will have to be sleepy for a few more days before you can eat it?" ”
Chunsheng smiled: "I ate it just right today." ”
Xie Ya had just finished eating the braised pork, and it was really a little greasy, so she hurriedly took the big apple and rubbed it on her body, and took a bite hard, "It's not bad, where did you pick this apple?" ”
Xie Ya really saw a seller of pears and apples in the town today, but the little money he earned from selling porridge and green corn really didn't dare to buy indiscriminately except for the ones that had to be filled by the buyers.
If this is now, Xie Ya gets off work, goes directly to his own supermarket, chooses at will, and finds his favorite food to take.
It's different now, I think it's delicious to eat a mountain apple, Xie Ya secretly thought to herself, this should be that she lived too comfortably in her previous life, and this rebirth allows her to re-experience the difficult years without eating and drinking.
Song Chunsheng was on the side, watching Xie Ya close her eyes intoxicated when she ate an apple, and she looked like a small mouth, and she felt cute when she looked at it.
"This is what my eldest brother found when he was chopping wood in the mountains, Sister Xie Ya, my eldest brother is so good to you, my father and mother have never eaten a bite of such a good apple."
Song Chunsheng glared at his sister when he saw him say this, and then laughed: "Let's go up the mountain in a while, and I'll go to see if the apple tree has been picked by others." ”
Three teenagers headed up the hill.
It had just rained heavily on the mountain, and the path on the mountain was washed out of ravines, Xie Ya and Chunsheng wheeled their sickles in front to open the way for Chunlai, while Chunlai walked behind and looked for mushrooms in the bushes.
Xie Ya also remembered that at her grandmother's house, she saw her aunt picking those mushrooms home in the mountains, and she hurriedly followed Chunlai to find them while walking.
At this time, although there are a lot of mushrooms on the mountain, but in this green and yellow season, the people of the village rely on the wild vegetables on the mountain to fill their stomachs, not to mention the meaty mushrooms.
The two of them searched for a long time before they found a few mushrooms, so the three of them walked into the mountains again.
Chunsheng looked at Xie Ya with great interest, and hurriedly said: "I know a place, although it is not easy to walk, but no one must go to pick mushrooms." ”
Chunlai said with some reluctance: "Brother, let's not go far, I just need to pick some apples and walnuts, it's going to rain this day, we will go far and my father and mother will be worried." ”
Chunlai hurriedly said: "If you are afraid, you can go back first, and I will reconcile you." ”
After speaking, he turned around and called Xie Ya to go directly to the depths of the mountain forest.
Chunlai behind him saw that his brother let him go home, turned around and looked at the forest behind him, he really didn't dare to go alone, so he quickly followed the two of them and shouted loudly: "You two wait for me!" ”
