Chapter 51: Grandpa Mountain God
You still have to make friends with one or two villagers on the other side of the bridge, otherwise you will become a savage in three years.
After taking a turn around the Lin family and the Bai family, and making sure that there was nothing to do, Lin Ximiao returned to the broken house.
When I arrived at the door, I saw Mrs. Lin holding on to the door, her brows full of wrinkles, full of sorrow.
"Grandmother, what's wrong with you?" Lin Ximiao hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Lin's arm, her eyes full of worry.
As soon as she saw her, Mrs. Lin showed a little smile on her face.
"Miao Miao, are you okay? Someone from the other side called, and called the children of the family to come back. Old Lady Lin's voice was anxious.
Lin Ximiao felt uncomfortable for a while, the old lady was sick and confused, and it was a few days ago.
"Grandmother, you just have to rest, your granddaughter is all arranged."
Helping Mrs. Lin back to the house, Lin Ximiao seemed to coax a child, and asked her to lie down and rest for a while.
Touching the old lady's head, the fever subsided, Lin Ximiao leaned on the side of the bed, and fell asleep in a daze.
The red sun was high, and the hustle and bustle outside was constant, even if Lin Ximiao was tired, her brows couldn't help frowning.
I opened my eyes in a daze and found that Lin Xiyue and the others had run out, but Mrs. Lin was quite energetic, sitting on the kang and holding her clothes to make up for it stitch by stitch.
"Miao Miao, are you awake?" Old Lady Lin showed a little smile on her face.
Lin Ximiao didn't wait for a reply, just listened outside: "! You're used to it! ”
This is Lin Huancheng's voice, there are so many children of the Lin family, only he doesn't want to scold people.
What's going on out there?
Lin Ximiao hurriedly got off the bed, walked outside in two steps, and saw the villagers on the other side of the river, standing on the bank with Lin Huancheng and a few boys to confront each other.
What Lin Huancheng was holding in his hand was the stone stick that Lin Ximiao taught them to tie, one by one across his chest, which was quite imposing.
Those who came from the opposite side were obviously defenseless, standing on the bridge and not daring to move forward.
Lin Ximiao walked over, glanced at the villagers on the other side, and then looked at Lin Huancheng: "What's wrong?" ”
"They're going up the mountain." Lin Huancheng's eyes did not leave those villagers, and they were very cold and scary.
"You're just going up the mountain?" Lin Ximiao turned her head and asked.
"What's wrong with going up the mountain? This mountain was built by your family. The leader's face has horizontal flesh, which is not a good stubble at first glance, and the few who follow him are honest.
Lin Ximiao glanced at him coldly and said in a low voice, "Get out of the way." ”
"What?" Lin Huancheng was stunned.
Lin Ximiao glanced up at him, Lin Huancheng hadn't forgotten the lesson of the morning, and hurriedly retreated to get out of the way.
The leader walked in with his toes high.
When their figures disappeared, Lin Ximiao dragged a child who was running faster: "Come into the mountain and tell Sister Bai, if you run into it, don't fight with them, come back as soon as possible." ”
The child answered and lifted his leg and ran.
These children are very active on weekdays, and they have already figured out how many roads there are on the mountain, ensuring that they can take shortcuts and will not run into people on the other side of the bridge.
"Miao Miao, what are you doing here? Isn't this giving them the capital to live in? ”
Lin Huancheng looked dissatisfied, and his mouth was chattering.
Those boys of the Lin family also watched Lin Ximiao not leave.
Lin Ximiao also simply stood on her feet and asked them, "Are you afraid that the chestnuts will be picked up by them?" ”
The boys nodded.
"What do chestnuts look like?" Lin Ximiao asked.
Some say round, some say flat, not to mention the shape, but even the color is different.
Those who said it was right were those who followed Lin Ximiao up the mountain, and those who were wrong were just seeing cooked chestnuts at home.
Looking at their sudden appearance, the corners of Lin Ximiao's lips hooked slightly: "You guys have been eating every day for the past few days, and you don't know what the chestnuts look like, and you still expect those people to really find them?" ”
"If they don't let them in, they also feel that there is a treasure in the mountain, so it's better to let them waste their minds for this treasure."
As soon as her voice fell, Lin Huancheng slapped her thigh: "How else to talk about reading!" Miao Miao, this loss is still the loss of you who have read the book! ”
Lin Ximiao turned around and left, no matter how she sounded, it sounded like a curse.
She didn't go back to the house, but sat on the stones in the courtyard, arranging for the Lin family to do the work, while waiting for the people on the other side of the bridge.
Sure enough, within an hour, those people came down from the mountain with a disgraced face and a rolling belt.
The mouth is still yelling.
"Big worms, big worms."
"Grandpa Mountain God, we were wrong, we were wrong."
Those people rushed out and kowtowed a few times to the mountain, but they didn't bother to look at the Lin family, and ran away.
Lin Ximiao only felt funny when she saw it.
The kids of the Lin family next to him really laughed, they were not polite at all, and shouted, they had done too many bad things, and Grandpa Mountain God couldn't stand it.
The funniest thing is that on the other side of the bridge, there is a little girl in pink clothes, laughing with them.
Lin Ximiao knew that the people here called the tiger the mountain god.
Could it be that the white tiger is blocking these people?
Lin Ximiao thought for a while, found the basket that the Lin family had been groping for the past few days, and asked people to scoop up the boiled chestnuts and peel them open.
Carry it to the side of the mountain.
As soon as she entered the mountain, she put down the basket and took two steps back, when the big white tiger came over step by step.
"Don't worry, Xiaohu is very good with me, I will take good care of it, and after a while, I will bring it over to see you."
Lin Ximiao said softly.
The white tiger hesitated, looked at Lin Ximiao and shook his head, and in a pair of eyes, he seemed to be able to see tenderness and sadness.
"Are you afraid that it will see you and be reluctant to let you go?" Lin Ximiao asked again.
The white tiger nodded, lowered its head and bit the basket and walked away, it knew in its heart that the person in front of it was a master of cultivation for several lifetimes, and it was a blessing that its child could follow her.
Seeing the figure of the white tiger disappearing, Lin Ximiao sighed, pitying the hearts of parents all over the world, obviously thinking so much about their children, they still couldn't help but look at it.
After returning to the Lin family, Bai Youling had already returned with the girl from the Bai family.
The young man of the Lin family stood there and told them about the day's affairs, adding a little by himself, and almost didn't talk about the confrontation between the two armies.
It's hard for those Bai family girls, who know it, but they still listen with a smile.
Seeing Lin Ximiao coming back, Bai Youling put down the work in her hand and walked over: "Sister Lin, I heard that the people on the other side of the river were scared away by tigers?" ”
Knowing that she was afraid, Lin Ximiao responded and comforted her softly: "That tiger knows the people of our Lin Bai family, don't be afraid." ”
Bai Youling stroked her chest: "I'm relieved." Then he smiled and took Lin Ximiao's hand: "Sister Lin can let me get close to me in the future, and the white tiger is only afraid that it will be for the sake of Sister Lin's face, so I will let go of the Bai family." ”
Bai Youling was annoyed, still a little girly, Lin Ximiao couldn't help but joke with her, her voice changed, and asked, "Youling, do you know, how to make this pastry?" ”
