Chapter Eighty-Five: Picking Up (There is an update today)

"Hmm, I don't have any meat to eat at noon today?"

Mei Berry looked at the fried mung bean sprouts with leeks, steamed eggplant with garlic, and soybean sprouts and egg soup on the table, and the whole person was a little unmotivated.

What to do?

In the difficult years, she can still be raised by her own mother, and she thinks about eating meat every day, which is really sinful!

"The meat at home has just been eaten, if you want to eat meat, you and your father will go to the town tomorrow to buy it, and then buy more and store it in your space."

"I still want to eat fish."

"If you want to eat fish, it's even easier. The fish pond outside the village, you and your dad remember to buy a fish basket and a fishing net to come back.

Didn't the fish I catch last time Mei You catch quite big? Although we can't fork it, we can always catch some by casting a net~"

Wei Meili remembered the fish in the river outside the village, and she heard Miao say that people here don't eat much fish and dislike the fishy smell, Wei Meili was also quite speechless.

Obviously, there are basically onions, ginger and garlic here, but there are still many people who can't handle the fishy smell of this fish.

I don't even eat it, it's just cheap for them.

After eating and drinking enough at noon, Wei Meili was not sleepy today, and took advantage of the fact that the two of them were napping to clean up the honeysuckle that was only in the morning in the plum berries, put it in a dustpan, covered it with a clean gauze and took it out to dry.

After that, she took the dried kudzu vine back and packed it up, and when the plum berry woke up in the afternoon, Wei Meili took the plum berry to the door.

Destination, Widow Chen's house.

"Ah, sister-in-law Erniu, are you here?"

When she saw Mei Berry and Wei Mei coming over, Widow Chen happened to be weaving cloth at home.

"I was planning to go to your house tomorrow, and I haven't thanked ...... last time."

"Oh yo, it's all in the same village, and whoever sees it is the one who takes the lead, so I need to thank you so much!"

Mei Berry saw that her mother and Widow Chen went to the courtyard to chat hand in hand as soon as they met, and she was attracted by this ancient loom at first sight.

While her mother was chatting with Widow Chen, Mei Berry deliberately approached the window of the house where the loom was placed.

Looking at the small window, Mei Berry didn't even pay attention to the lock that handed him water.

"Ah, you're scared to death."

Startled by the bowl that suddenly appeared in front of him, Plum Berry looked over and saw that the lock-headed boy was staring at him with a stinky little face, as if he owed him money.

"Drink water."

The lock head brought the bowl towards the plum berries and leaned it in again.

Plum Berry pursed her mouth, took the bowl and didn't drink, and the lock didn't care when she saw her like this, so she turned around and left, but was stopped by Mei Berry with a word.

"You ...... this morning"

"Shh

Suketou nervously looked back in the direction of his mother, then turned his head and glared at Plum Berry to shut up.

His nervous appearance Mei Berry raised her eyebrows when she saw it, and she seemed to understand something.

Plum Berry opened her mouth again triumphantly, although she didn't say anything, but the wordless threat lock could be seen clearly.

People stubbornly stood not far from Meiberry and stared at her, but they were amused by Meiberry.

"What are you doing? If you are seen sneaking around and not reflecting on yourself, why do you blame others for seeing it? ”

Mei Berry can't see such an awkward guy, this look is obvious that this guy ran up the mountain with his family on his back in the morning.

As a result, he bumped into it, and he dared to blame himself for seeing it directly?

"Don't talk!" Lockhead listened to Mei Berry Balabala say it directly, and immediately deliberately lowered his voice, squinted at the movement of his own mother, and finally softened his tone and whispered, "Come out and talk." ”

Holding the little secret of the lock, Mei Berry only said: "I'm not going, if you have something to say, they can't hear it." ”

Mei Berry watched her mother and Widow Chen chatting very happily, and the laughter that came from time to time, Mei Berry was sure that they would have a good time to talk about.

"You're ......"

The lock was so angry that Mei Berry grinded his teeth, but he didn't dare to really provoke people when he saw her appearance of not getting oil and salt.

He had no choice but to accommodate her and take two steps forward.

"I heard you caught that donkey in the mountains?"

"Who did you listen to?"

A flash of light flashed from under the plum berry's eyes.

"Youβ€”you care about me?"

Listening to the lock's words, Plum Berry dared to confirm that it was really someone who was playing right and wrong in front of the lock.

If he had heard it from the chatter of the aunts in the village, his answer would not have been like this.

Even the boy's eyes flashed with chagrin, as if he was also distressed about who had aroused her suspicions and dragged him into the water.

Seeing the lock's resistance, Mei Berry didn't ask deeper, but looked up at the lock, looked up and down, and said in surprise: "You go up the mountain...... You don't want to catch one too, do you? ”

It seems that he was poked in the heart, and he was nervous when he was asked by Mei Berry just now, and now it turned directly into annoyance.

"What? You can catch it, but I can't? ”

The angry lock also waved his fist, and he looked like her fat tiger with his teeth and claws.

"Poof~ I didn't say no, but you're only ten years old, right?"

Plum Berry didn't immediately puncture the boy's ridiculous idea.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Didn't laugh at anything, I said that you are so young, don't you go up the mountain alone without thinking about the consequences? You are the only pillar of your family. ”

Mei Berry's gaze fell on Widow Chen, who was smiling not far away, and her mood sank.

In this era, as the only male in the family, the importance of locks is self-evident.

Whether it is for Widow Chen or Grandma Liu, the lock is their only spiritual support.

And the person who talked to the lock head about going up the mountain to catch the "donkey" was really vicious enough.

What if something really happens?

"I ......" wanted to refute Plum Berry's words, but what Mei Berry said was right, his relatives were his dead end.

And when you think about it, he was really impulsive.

"I heard that some time ago, an Orion hunted a big insect in the mountains behind us, and it is said to be the first to be old. Maybe there's a young one in the mountains. ”

Suotou's face turned white when he listened to Mei Berry's words, but he still had a hard mouth: "You, you don't scare me, you can go up the mountain, I, I can too!" ”

"I'm in company, my sister, don't you see her carrying two bundles of firewood? How much strength is that?

What's the matter...... We can run away from that, too.

Besides, my father had been to the area where we went up the mountain before, and confirmed that it was safe.

It's youβ€”like a headless fly, spinning around in the mountains, the mountains behind you are as big...... You, think about your milk. ”

Grandma Liu's obsession with the donkey that day wanted to lock her head in her eyes and heart, so she took the risk and went up the mountain alone.

I saw the lock that stood in place and said by oneself without saying a word.

The young man's tense body stood there straight, his face constantly flashing with various negative emotions such as anger, chagrin, and frustration.

"Alas~ Donkey or something, you work hard to grow up to help your mother work, and in the future, you can simply buy a donkey directly with the money, do you have to do this kind of desperate thing?"

"It's hard to buy a donkey these days......"

"That's better than ploughing cattle, isn't it?"

"That's ...... too"

Seeing that the lock seemed to rekindle hope, Mei Berry hooked the corners of her lips and asked, "Who gave you such impulsive advice to go up the mountain?" ”

"Hmm...... No one would recommend ......"

"No one? Are you sure? ”

Plum berries don't believe it.

"I ......"

Just as the lock was about to open his mouth to say something to Plum Berry again, there was another knock on the door of their yard......
