Chapter 60: There Are Snakes
Xie Rongrong and Xie Rongen went out to hunt pigweed together, but she worked slowly, Xie Rongen had to go back to hand in errands, and Xie Rongrong was only halfway here.
Xie Rongen didn't like this cousin originally, and she usually didn't talk much, but thinking that she was a girl and had never done this kind of work before, she might not be able to adapt to it, so she still stepped forward and took the initiative to ask if she needed help.
Where did Xie Rongrong suffer this crime, she was already aggrieved in her heart, and when she saw the fourth brother coming to ask, she couldn't stop it all of a sudden, and she cried wow.
Xie Rongen panicked all of a sudden.
This girl's crying is the most troublesome, he won't coax it.
"You, don't cry, I'll help you carry these back."
"Woo~~~"
Xie Rongrong was still crying, Xie Rongen was a little at a loss for a while, and after thinking about it, he took the initiative to take the sickle and start cutting pigweed for her.
After a while, Xie Rongrong finally stopped crying.
When her back basket was filled, Xie Rongrong replied, "Thank you, fourth brother." ”
Xie Rongen hurriedly waved his hand, but don't thank you, he can't take the initiative to talk about anything in the future.
Obviously, the brains of these two people are not on the same level.
What Xie Rongrong thought was that the fourth brother was so afraid of her crying, it could be seen that she still felt sorry for her, so next time she came out to fight pigweed, she would continue to cry, and when the time came, she didn't have to do anything, she could let the fourth brother do all the work, and she could go back to make her errand, so that the family thought she was diligent.
And what Xie Rongen thought was that he knew that she could cry so much, why did he have to come over to talk to her?
So in the future, you must definitely keep your distance from this cousin, and it is easy not to talk casually.
Therefore, the kind of good thing that Xie Rongrong thought of was estimated to be difficult to achieve.
Because Xie Rongen plans to come out to hunt pigweed in the future and not join her, how can Xie Rongrong still make people feel sorry for her?
The two went back, put the pigweed away, and then were instructed to go to the mountains to dig bamboo shoots.
Xie Rongen didn't say anything, and he didn't do this kind of work before.
But Xie Rongrong couldn't stand it anymore, and was aggrieved and didn't want to go, when she caught a glimpse of Xie Rongzhao sitting on the threshold holding his little face in a daze!
"Grandma, let Sister Zhao go with us, she can't do anything at home anyway, so it's better to hang out with us."
Grandma Xie glanced at Xie Rongzhao, she didn't look down on this granddaughter, she loved to be sick when she was a child, and she spent money on it!
"What to take her for? She's a little turnip head, and she can't do anything, and she'll make trouble for you again. ”
"Grandma, just let her go with you. And the fourth brother doesn't talk to me much, and I'm so bored by myself. ”
Xie Rongen was standing on the side, he looked at the little cousin sitting there, but he had the heart to take her up the mountain to play.
However, it has to be done with grandma's consent.
Grandma Xie failed to grind Xie Rongrong in the end, so she nodded and agreed.
"Go ahead, don't delay making lunch."
"Got it, Grandma."
Xie Rongzhao was very happy to learn that she could go out to play, after all, she was really just a child now, and she didn't seem to be able to do anything else except play.
Xie Rongen directly put her in his back basket, and then carefully carried her, but Xie Rongzhao was very happy.
Xie Rongrong looked at the brother and sister in front of her, and she was inevitably a little jealous.
Why!
are all cousins, why is the fourth brother so cold to himself?
No matter what she thought, Xie Rongen still carried Xie Rongzhao up the mountain on his back.
When he arrived at a bamboo forest, Xie Rongen put down the basket, Xie Rongzhao was not in a hurry, and only after he was stable did he stretch out his two little arms and let the fourth brother take her out.
"Good baby, just sit here and watch us dig bamboo shoots, don't run around."
"Got it, Fourth Brother."
When Xie Rongzhao responded, he also signaled Xie Rongen to lower his head, and then quickly stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth.
Xie Rongen actually doesn't like sweets very much, and always thinks that it is something that only girls like.
But this is fed by the good baby, and this candy seems to be different from the one at home.
Why do you still taste fruity?
Xie Rongzhao didn't really rest, and when Xie Rongen dug one, she was responsible for squatting aside and starting to peel the bamboo shoots.
These bamboo shoots look quite big and fat, but in fact, when you peel off the outer skin, there is really nothing left.
Many farmers will peel the bamboo shoots after returning home, because the bamboo shoots are dried in the yard, and they can also be used for fire, or for wrapping ingredients.
The Xie family is not short of this kind of thing, so naturally there is no need to do more useless work.
I really went home and peeled it, and I had to clean it myself, and then throw out the bamboo shoots, which was troublesome.
It's better to clean it up now, and when you go back, this back can be easier and you can do less cleaning.
Seeing her take the initiative to help, Xie Rongen smiled happily and reminded her not to hurt her hands.
"No, I'll peel it."
Xie Rongen's brother and sister get along well, but Xie Rongrong on the other end is not very good.
She was a little girl's family, and she didn't have much strength, and she didn't know how to dig bamboo shoots, so she finally cut one off, and when she peeled the skin, she found that the bamboo shoots in it were as thin as a brush stick.
If this kind of bamboo shoots is brought back, it is estimated that they will be scolded by grandma.
Xie Rongen also noticed this, so he called her to come over and help peel the bamboo shoots together, and he would cut it.
Although Xie Rongrong is not happy to be with Xie Rongzhao, she still prefers to do easy work.
Not long after, there were eight or nine bamboo shoots in Xie Rongen's back basket, which was enough for them to eat two meals as a family, and fried bacon with this fresh bamboo shoots was very fragrant!
"Alright, let's clean up this place briefly and go back."
Xie Rongzhao didn't want to go down the mountain, so he was finally allowed to come out, and he wanted to play for a while.
At this time, she can't wait to grow up overnight, so that people will always treat her as a child.
Xie Rongrong saw the wildflowers not far away: "Fourth brother, I'll go there to pick flowers, it's so beautiful, I'm going to weave a wreath to wear." ”
After speaking, she didn't wait for Xie Rongen to give her a feedback, and ran over directly.
Xie Rongen had no choice but to lift up the small backpack she threw on the ground, and then prepared to pull Xie Rongzhao over with him.
"Ahh Fourth brother, snake, there is a snake! Come and save me! ”
Xie Rongen was taken aback, it is indeed easy to see snakes in the bamboo forest on this mountain, but I didn't expect that it would be too peaceful when digging bamboo shoots, and I would encounter snakes when I went to pick flowers at this time.
"Good baby, you wait for me here, don't run around, I'll go see your second sister."
Xie Rongzhao nodded obediently and sat back on the big stone again.
When Xie Rongen passed, Xie Rongrong was completely frozen, unable to say anything except crying.
Xie Rongen took two steps forward, then frowned and said, "Don't cry, the snake is still two feet away from you, won't you run?" ”
