Chapter 16: Little Pebbles
If this is a person who can look at people's eyes, it is estimated that Wu An's mood is not very good, but You Sifang is hungry tonight and feels that he has found something to make his father-in-law happy, and he has completely lost his usual cleverness, and at this time, he is even more skinless and faceless to put his handsome face that can be regarded as handsome among his peers into Wu An's hands.
"Lady, why don't you continue to look at it? I feel a little bit of a pain in my face, if you don't continue to be handsome, will you not look down on you...... Woo! ”
Wu An pressed You Sifang onto the quilt and ran it over a few times before smiling and letting him go back to sleep.
"Quartet, let's sleep first, I'm going to be busy tomorrow, don't wake everyone up."
No matter how stupid You Sifang was, he knew that he was upsetting the lady at this moment, so he immediately drilled into the quilt and made a loud snoring sound. Indicates that he is asleep.
Wu An gently reminded the other party.
"Be quieter, if you wake up Ning Ning, you can coax you."
Then the snoring suddenly disappeared, and there was a deathly silence. The people around who were originally quiet couldn't help it at this moment, and sneered several times. It took a while for calm to return. Only You Lao Liu, who was shivering from the cold outside, wanted to cry without tears at this time. Speaking of which, is Grandpa gone? He's really a little cold......
The next day, Ning Ning was awakened by the sound of chopping wood, she slowly squirmed a few times, and did not want to leave the warm bed. Wu An, who was paying attention to her little daughter, was the first to notice that Ning Ning was awake, and she didn't bother her, just smiled and watched the little man blink her eyes a few times with tenderness, and slowly closed them after opening them.
"Hmm, mother?"
"Hey, Xiao Ningning woke up?"
"Wake up, wake up......"
Ning Ning sat up from the quilt with a bone, not greedy for the quilt at all, but anxious to get out. She remembered that the sixth brother said that when the day dawned, he would find a basin for himself and soak the stone in the water, and she didn't know if the stone was soaked at this time......
Quickly dressed, Ning Ning rushed out. It's just that the person is too small, Wushan sent a few sets of clothes, Wu An was afraid that his daughter would be cold, so he wore several layers, and the clothes he wore at this time were too thick, and the whole person was bulging. When he rushed to the threshold position, he tripped over the threshold, and the whole person spun half a circle directly in the air.
“!”
Wu An didn't dare to call her at this time. The child's life is light, it was fine, if the adult suddenly shouted, maybe something would happen, and he was struggling to get up to see how Ning Ning was doing, but as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Ning Ning simply get up neatly, and continue to run with his little short legs. Looks like it's fine.
Wu An took a breath, and then sat back on the kang with palpitations.
At this time, Ning Ning had already run to the edge of the courtyard wall. She had seen that there was nothing yesterday, and now there was a stone basin with a corner missing. When I came to take a look, I saw that there was water half a palm deep inside, and the water was soaked in the stone I found yesterday evening.
Even if the stone had been soaked all morning, it was still dark, and there was no trace of the brilliant green that I had ever seen.
However, at this time, Ning Ning also found that in addition to the stones found yesterday evening, there were other small stones in this stone basin. Either it is very round, or it has a bit of bright color, and it looks very beautiful when it is illuminated by the early morning sun.
"Ning Ning woke up?"
At this time, You Laohan dragged a dry branch and strode back, he was old, they didn't let You Laohan work, You Laohan was still angry, no, he went out for a walk early in the morning, and he found such a big dead branch.
Without waiting for You Sifang, who was catching up, complained, You Laohan had already let go of his son to take over, and he came to Ning Ning's side in a hurry, and took out something from his arms with a smile and held it in his palm, letting the child guess what he was holding in his hand.
"Ning Ning, guess what grandpa has in his hand?"
Ning Ning looked at the old man You seriously, and thought seriously with a small face.
"Well, it's bugs?"
You Laohan's face was a little stiff, so he couldn't help but remind his little granddaughter.
"It's something you really like."
Ning Ning stared at his grandfather's hand for a long time, and then suddenly laughed in Old Man You's tangled gaze.
"Lie to your grandfather, I know, it's a small stone!"
You Laohan suddenly smiled.
"Oh, whose little girl can be as smart and cute as my granddaughter? What a clever little ghost. You guessed it! Come, here you go. ”
You Laohan stretched out his hand, and there were two cyan stones that looked like they were cold in the palm of his hand, which looked very beautiful. Ning Ning cheered, carefully took it and put it in the basin, the stone was soaked in water, and it was even more transparent.
Ning Ning clapped her hands happily!
"It's so pretty!"
This is not over, every wanderer who comes back will bring back beautiful stones for Ning Ning, and after a while, the bottom of the broken corner of the basin will be paved. You Sifang also brought back a water plant to Ning Ning, and when he went to the water, it looked so exquisite.
Ning Ning squatted on the edge of the basin, holding her face to look at the basin shining under the refraction of the sun, her big eyes were clear and translucent, and her black was moist. Such a big child just likes all kinds of good-looking things, and Ning Ning is even more so, and he will not get tired of staring at the things he likes all day long. Although the adults are past such an age and don't quite understand why children like stones so much, they can't help but smile when they see Ning Ning.
Being able to see the peaceful smiling faces of children at this time gives them a feeling that they are really alive. From now on, as long as everyone works together, this life will be better and better. How can they not work hard? That's where the hope lies.
You Lao Liu, who came back at the end, looked depressed, and couldn't help but drift his gaze when he looked at Shang Ningning's expectant eyes. What, what is going on today, he obviously wants to pick the best stone for Ning Ning, but he walked all over the small river ditch and didn't find the one he liked, isn't there a beautiful stone in this Qingshui Village? He didn't want to make do with an ordinary one, so he had to come back empty-handed.
You Lao Liu, who returned empty-handed, was unanimously ridiculed by everyone, and he originally felt that he was at a loss, but when he saw the bottom of the basin full of small stones, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, pointing at everyone trembling and trembling, and he couldn't speak with anger.
It turned out that you snatched all the beautiful little stones, and now you are staring at yourself with such eyes, really think he is pinched in the mud?! As a result, no one paid attention to him!
"Sixth? Why are you staring at them with such big eyes? ”
“…… There is no second aunt, there is sand in her eyes, and it is uncomfortable. ”
"Oh, then you go and get in the way."
“…… Okay......"
