Jiang Heng's heart was beating wildly.

Not wanting Kexi to worry, he answered the girl, "Okay, I'm down", and did not linger on the tree any longer, and went down the tree with flexible movements.

Usually when boys eat cashew pears, they pick them up from the ground, wipe them on their clothes, and then eat them.

Jiang Heng felt that girls love to be clean, took off their shirts, wrapped the fruit in clothes, and "took it to the lake to wash it before eating." ”

Kossi nodded, and followed the boy out of the cashew nut grove and through a mangrove forest all the way to the lake.

The freshwater lake is several thousand square meters long, and there are aquatic plants such as narcissus and water lily that have strict requirements for water quality.

The roots of the water lily can absorb and filter the particles in the water, purifying the water, and if the lake water is polluted, the flowers will turn black.

"Wow, what a beautiful lotus, white, pink."

When Xiao Kexi praised him, Jiang Heng on the side couldn't help but say, "Well, it's very beautiful, like Kexi's face." ”

"Huh? What did Brother Ah Heng say just now? Koshi, who was obsessed with viewing lotus flowers, didn't hear the boy's words, and turned around and asked.

Jiang Heng felt shy and shook his head hurriedly, "It's nothing." ”

He washed the cashew pear, specially picked the yellow cashew pear with a better taste, handed it to Kexi, and ate the red one himself.

Yellow is the most ripe, and the flesh is sweet and less astringent, while red is more sour and bitter.

Kexi didn't pay attention to the difference in color, and thought that the fruit was delicious, sweet and crisp, and the flesh was juicy, with a faint rose fragrance.

"What's next?" After eating the pulp, Kexi took the shell at the bottom of the cashew pear and looked at it, "Can you eat it?" ”

Jiang Heng hurriedly said: "Don't peel off the shell, after peeling it off, milky white juice will flow out inside, and if you accidentally touch the skin, it will be very painful like being burned by fire." ”

"Huh?" Koshi hurriedly threw away the cashew nuts.

"Aunt Xu said that although the flesh in the innermost part of the shell can be eaten, it is too troublesome to handle because it is protected by the juice, so we generally only eat pears and not cashew nuts."

When it comes to Aunt Xu, Jiang Heng can't help but think of Brother Xishu who is still locked up in the basement.

I don't know if Brother Xishu woke up or not, if he had a good meal, he must be very worried about Kexi, right?

"Brother Ah Heng, let's take the rest of the fruit to Brother Xishu and Aunt Xu later, shall we? Good no good? ”

Hearing Kexi's sweet and glutinous words, looking at her innocent gaze, Jiang Heng's heart twitched suddenly.

"Aunt Xu sent you to Yi Yi's house, don't you hate her? I think she's become so scary. ”

Kexi tilted his head in confusion, "Why do you think Aunt Xu is terrible?" Aunt Xu asked me to go to my eldest brother's house to play in the morning, and she also comforted Kexi, saying that she would find a way to help Kexi find the little rice cake. ”

"She lied to you! She asked the people on the island to take turns to take care of you, and she didn't let Uncle Saibin know that she just wanted to keep you. ”

Speaking of which, Jiang Heng suddenly found that he and Aunt Xu Hui were actually half a catty, didn't he also want to forcibly leave Kexi and prevent Kexi from going to see Uncle Saibin and the island owner?

Seeing the little boy frowning and his gaze became complicated, Kexi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Brother Ah Heng, what's wrong with you?" You have a weird look. ”

"I'm sorry."

"Why did you say 'I'm sorry' to Kexi?"

Jiang Heng bit his lip, "Because I'm very bad, I want Kexi to play with me, I want you to stay, and it's all my fault that Brother Xishu is locked up, and Aunt Xu doesn't look like Aunt Xu before." ”

Xiao Kexi was surprised, "Huh? Brother Yuki is locked up? ”

"Well, I was locked up in the basement by Aunt Xu."

Without waiting for Jiang Heng to continue to blame himself and feel guilty, Kexi took the initiative to hold his hand, "Let's go save Brother Xishu, right?" Then let Aunt Xu and Brother Yuki apologize and persuade her not to become a bad aunt. ”

"Koshi ......"

Raising his head and looking at the little girl standing beside him, holding his hand, and bowing slightly, Jiang Heng had a feeling of being healed by her innocence, and couldn't help but nod and said, "Hmm." ”

The two children returned to the village, where the houses were gathered.

"Shh," Jiang Heng cautiously, looked out, and saw that there was no one on the road, before he said, "You can go." ”

As a result, after walking a short distance, he turned and bumped into his younger brother Zhang Xuancheng, who was one year younger than him.

Without waiting for Zhang Xuancheng to shout in fright, Jiang Heng took the first step to cover his mouth and kept glaring at him, "Don't scream." ”

The seven-year-old boy nodded and nodded hurriedly, and when his mouth was released, he whispered, "Brother Heng, where did you go just now?" Fat guy is looking for you and ...... everywhere."

After a pause, he pointed to Kexi behind Jiang Heng and said the word "she" nervously.

"What about Chen Taoren? Where did he go? ”

"I've searched all around the neighborhood, and now he's taken a few of his other brothers to look for them elsewhere, and I don't know where they went."

Jiang Heng breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good to go." ”

Zhang Xuancheng kindly persuaded: "She pushed the fat brother, and the fat brother said that he wanted to find her to be angry, if he saw you together, he would definitely beat you, you better ignore her." ”

Jiang Heng clenched his fists, "I'm not afraid of Chen Tao!" ”

"Fat brother's fist is hard, if you hit the tree with a fist, the tree will shake, have you forgotten that Brother Xiaofeng was knocked out of his front teeth by him?"

"I know he's a good fighter, so I'm going to protect Kexi." Leaving this sentence aside, Jiang Heng didn't want to continue to say more, and pulled Kexi in the direction of Brother Xishu's house.

Zhang Xuancheng couldn't help but follow behind, "She's a girl, why are you protecting her?" Dad says girls are troublesome and annoying! If it weren't for my mother who had to ask me to see her, I wouldn't want to see her. ”

"It's your business that you hate it! Kexi is the girl I like, and boys should protect girls! ”

Feeling that Zhang Xuancheng was very annoying, Jiang Heng pushed him away, "I'll go find Brother Xishu, don't follow me anymore." By the way, you are not allowed to tell Chen Tao about me taking Kexi to Brother Xishu's house. ”

Zhang Xuancheng pursed his lips and looked at the backs of Jiang Heng and Kexi leaving, with a sullen expression.

He is short and always bullied by Chen Tao and a few people, and he has always wanted to play with Lin Xishu and Jiang Heng, but they don't take him to play every time.

Now a girl suddenly appeared, and Brother Ah Heng began to favor this girl again.

The more Zhang Xuancheng thought about it, the more unwilling he felt.

Hum! Call her "Kexi" or "Kenan" or "Kedong"!

It's all because of her that everyone is messing and quarreling today.

Dad is right, girls are troublemakers who like to cause trouble!

As long as there are boys on the island, it's fine, and the fat brother had better eliminate this Kexi.

Then the island will be able to regain its calm.

Thinking so, Zhang Xuancheng didn't care about Brother A Heng's words before, made up his mind, turned around and ran in the direction where the fat brother and the others left, ready to find them to report the news.
