Chapter 2: Strange Stones
"Yo, today's kudzu has been sold for a lot of money, Sister Qing, you have worked hard, go and wash it, Liangzi, quickly fetch some hot water for your sister."
Li put the money away and called Ye Zhengliang to the stove.
"I don't want it! She's a second fool, she's not my sister, so I don't want to go! ”
As he spoke, he ran past Ye Qing and rubbed his mud-stained hand against Ye Qing.
Li gritted his teeth and chased a few steps, the half-grown child, running fast, where could he catch up.
Ye Qing didn't speak, only went into the house and took a wooden basin, and washed it with water in a gourd.
After a while, Ye Youde also came back from the field.
Ye Li set the table, Ye Qing looked at the clear soup and little water, and suddenly lost his appetite, so he simply used half of the nest to soak in a bowl of salty soup, ate a few bites hastily, and went back to the room with the hot egg.
Lying in the gray room, looking at the thatched roof, he sighed deeply, "When will this day end!" ”
Yes, she has begun to miss braised beef, braised pork ribs, steamed crabs, fried small fish, the food in the team is very good, the meat is special, and there is no need to worry about food safety issues at all.
Soon there was no sound outside, and the family washed and slept, can they not sleep?
The oil from the oil lamp is very expensive.
Ye Qing saw the stars on the dark blue night through a small window next to her, and when she came to this great country, her favorite thing was to watch the stars at night, she had never seen so many stars in her previous life.
Today, however, only the stars can be seen.
She touched the necklace around her neck with some irritability, saying that the necklace was actually a gray stone, half the size of her palm.
It's just that you can't take it off, and you can't take it off, which is the most annoying.
The cricket kept screaming, and she slowly fell asleep, only the moment she closed her eyes, the stars in the sky disappeared suddenly, and a bright moon rose, especially bright moonlight.
One of them, straight through the small window, shone on Ye Qing's face, and on his body, the gray and inconspicuous stone suddenly emitted a lustrous light.
Wrapped Ye Qing's whole person in it, the light did not dissipate for a long time.
On the second day, the weather was sunny and it was a rainless day.
Ye Qing likes rainy days, so he doesn't have to dig kudzu or go up the mountain.
There are a lot of kudzu roots in the col, but this is located in the deep mountains, and the young men have gone out to work, and the little girls who dig the kudzu roots are all the little girls from each family, and the girls who are married are also learning to weave at home, and they don't go out anymore, so only Ye Qing and a few little girls come to dig.
Ye Qing dug up a bunch of kudzu roots early, and a few little girls divided them again.
"Hey, Ye Qing, what's on your neck?"
Ye Qing lowered his head and saw that it was his own gray necklace that leaked out.
"Nothing?"
Ye Qing pinched the pendant and stuffed it into the collar, but as soon as she touched it, she felt that something was not right, the burning sensation spread from her fingers to her entire body, and she was extremely uncomfortable.
But she couldn't speak, looking at the firmly glued fingers, Ye Qing bit her lip, only to feel that her hands were pale and terrible, and there was something in the pendant that was sucking her blood as if something had a mouth.
When she couldn't bear it anymore, she felt like she was going to be sucked dry by this thing, so she picked up the machete and was about to cut off her fingers, but the pendant let go of her hand.
The original gray pendant has become verdant and watery.
She looked at the little girl who was still pretending to be kudzu, picked up the machete, and asked for the rope of the jade pendant to be cut, but as usual, she couldn't take it down, and kept cutting.
She shook it hard, the pendant touched her lips, a drop of sweet honeydew instantly moistened her lips, she swallowed subconsciously, and a stream of heat filled her entire body.
I feel like I'm filled with more and more power, and my skin seems to be a little more radiant than before.
She picked up the kudzu basket with one hand, and felt a lot lighter.
The little girls were cutting down a dead tree, and she carried her machete over, and with just one knife, she cut a very thick dead tree into two neat pieces.
Ye Huanghua said in surprise: "Ah Qing, your machete is so sharp!" ”
Ye Qing looked at the three of them in surprise, raised his eyebrows, his heart was beating wildly, only his face was not visible, and he said lightly: "I grinded for a quarter of an hour early in the morning. ”
The three of them said in unison, "No wonder it's so sharp." ’
Ye Qing knew in her heart that it was the relationship of the jade pendant, although the original body had great strength, she had been here for so many days, and although the original body had great strength, it was not so big.
I only said secretly in my heart: I'll see when I go back, but there's something weird.
Ye Qing went back early today, handed over the money to Ye Li's family, got another warm egg, and went back to his room.
Plugged in the simple door bolt, the stepmother Li was a little surprised, Ye Qing would not have inserted the door in the past, during this time, people were awake, and their behavior was abnormal.
Looking at the small string of money in his hand, he shook his head, turned around and went to work under the stove.
Ye Qing lay down, and as soon as he took out the jade pendant, he saw that the original gray stone had changed its appearance, and it was verdant like a high-grade jade.
There is a pit in the middle of the pendant, and there is a little crystal clear water droplet in the middle.
If you shake the pendant, you can see the traces of flow.
Touching it with her fingers, the drop of dew, like a coquettish little girl, was on her fingers, crystal clear, colorless and tasteless, trembling, and would not fall.
She sent the dew to her lips and ate it again.
The familiar feeling came up again, and there was a burst of warmth in the abdominal cavity, and the heat rushed up to the limbs, and it was as comfortable as lying in a hot spring.
While enjoying this feeling, Ye Qing sighed that the traversers really have golden fingers, is this dew a good way to make people fit and healthy?
There were bursts of crying outside, and an old woman's voice came in the direction of the Ye family, "Brother He, I'm a good grandson, it's all your stepmother who wants money and doesn't want to die, and you are like this, my brother, poor brother!" ”
Ye Qing suddenly had a headache, if you want to say that the Li family, as a stepmother, at most, she secretly pokes and pokes less rice, and the padded jacket is thinner, but she is a face-saving person, and she does a good job of face, for fear that others will say that she abused the children left by her ex-wife.
And this crying mother-in-law is the grandmother of the original owner, and she is a scoundrel who has to retreat when he sees it.
If you are unreasonable, you will stir up three points, and if you are reasonable, you must make a fuss.
