"Blackie."

The sound of the flower time broke the confrontation between a child and a cat just right.

"Meow."

Hearing Hanashi call her name, the black cat turned her head to look at her and walked towards her with cat steps.

The little flower shadow who was still squatting on the ground behind her also followed the black cat's movement, looked in her direction, raised her head, and her big eyes were full of undisguised longing.

Hua Shi stepped forward in three or two steps and kicked the bamboo basket on the ground.

The little radish head followed the movements of her hand, raised her head with her eyes, stood up, and never left the bamboo basket in her hand with a sticky gaze.

Hua Shi followed his gaze and looked down at the bamboo basket in his hand.

She has always been very cautious, afraid that the things inside will be exposed, so she deliberately uses a shabby cloth to cover the things underneath tightly.

I don't know how Xiaohuaying saw that there was something delicious hidden inside, and after only a while, she stared at it......

Iced dates and candied dates are not big things, if you don't put them close to your nose and smell them, and eat them in your mouth, they won't smell at all, right......?

"Sister... Sister... Hungry, eating. ”

Little Flower Shadow stood obediently in front of her, just tilting her head and moving her gaze to her for a moment.

His mouth was still very uncomfortable, and his immature words were a little slurred, but the meaning of the expression was very clear.

In the hall to the side behind Hua Shi, there was a sudden sound of clear footsteps, accompanied by the sound of Hua Ciyuan's retching.

"Flowers, come here, I have something to tell you!"

Before Hua Shiren turned around, he heard Hua Ciyuan's somewhat disgusting voice and shouted at her.

"What are you doing stupidly? Are you deaf! ”

Hua Ciyuan's whole person looked very impatient, seeing that his words were spoken, Hua Shi was still standing in place and didn't come, and the words he said behind him were a little annoying.

"How?"

Hua Shi turned and looked at him.

"What, how? Is this the attitude you have when you talk to your Lao Tzu! Raising you so big, don't you know what respecting your elders is! ”

Hua Ciyuan was very dissatisfied with Hua Shi's attitude, and his words were aggressive, and he had the taste of Na Qiao.

The expression on Hua Shi's face paused obviously after listening to Hua Ciyuan's words.

It was the first time in a long time that she had seen such a ...... Aggressive posture, suddenly put on his own posture as a father, trying to show her something.

Hua Shi looked at him and did not speak.

She didn't want to talk to Hua Ciyuan about anything, and she couldn't tell him clearly, just like talking to Li, she always felt very tired......

When he saw the flowers, he stopped talking, and the expression of the flowers seemed to be even more dissatisfied.

Although he is not strong enough, he is also very tall, at this time he raised his head, tilted his chin, and squinted at the appearance of looking at the flowers, with a little pride.

Hua Shi didn't know what he was proud of, and he didn't know what he wanted to express, his brows furrowed, and his eyebrows and eyes were also dyed with impatience.

Hua Ciyuan suddenly looked condescending, leaning at her from above, and said in a low voice,

"I know you're jealous when you spend it, but don't think that your jealousy is useful, it's November township test time in seven or eight days, even if you can't get used to me, it's useless, who made you not like your milk now! If you want to blame yourself, don't think that if you hurt your, you can stop me from going to the exam, I will definitely be able to pass this time, you all show me good! ”

He secretly lowered his voice, and as the words in his heart were revealed, he became more and more unable to hold back, and his voice became more and more hoarse.

The expression on his face was as if he was in a daze, and the whole person looked a little crazy.

Hua Shi listened to his words in this paragraph, and there were still some unexplained emotions, but now he seemed to have reacted after realizing it.

She raised her eyes to look at Hua Ciyuan.

Hua Ciyuan's expression looked a little hideous because of the too large and inflated emotion, and the original delicate and pleasing face also changed.

What do you say about the mood of the flower at this moment...... Inexplicable.

She didn't know what Hua Ciyuan thought, thinking that she had deliberately injured Li so that he couldn't go to the exam......

Belch......

"Didn't you go to the town to take the test some time ago? Why do you have to take the test? ”

Hua Shi raised his hand and touched his sour neck, asking questions.

She did remember that half a month ago, before the snow fell, didn't the Li family take him to the town for several days.

She didn't ask carefully, but she also vaguely remembered that she was indeed going to the town to take the exam......

Hua Ciyuan choked at her bull's question, and then roared a little annoyed,

"Are you stupid in your brains! Last time, it wasn't a township test, it was just a selected test! The township test is in November! Why don't you even know this, your brain is really stupid? ”

Hua Ciyuan's expression was a little annoyed.

Hua Shi's reaction made him instantly feel that what he said just now was like a joke.

"Oh."

In fact, Hua Shi really doesn't care at all whether Hua Ciyuan can gain fame or not, and he doesn't want to know at all.

She is now busy trying to find all kinds of ways to make money, whether it is to support herself or pull her cheap siblings......

She didn't even have the heart to think about anything else.

For Lee's and Hua Ciyuan...... She figured it out more than half a month ago, whether it was the Li family or the rhetoric, it was not something she could get along with, and their way of thinking and practices were different from her.

The so-called Tao is not the same.

She can't count on this cheap grandma and daddy, so she can only rely on herself, the coldest day of this winter, seeing that it is approaching, she is afraid that she will starve to death and freeze to death......

The small contradictions faced by the Hua family are all trivial matters before life and death, and it can only be said that she has no time to discuss them.

As for Hua Ciyuan's inexplicable hostility, she didn't bother to think about it......

"You!"

Hua Ciyuan was choked by her bland reaction, and then breathed a sigh of relief and chattered,

"Okay, Huashi, I know, and now I'm putting on this attitude that it's none of my business, right, I deliberately injured your milk, and now I'm pretending to be stupid here, don't think I don't know you, even if you don't want me to get better, it's too late now!"

Flower time: ......?

Do you want to see what you're talking about?

I don't know when she gave Hua Ciyuan any illusion? Make him feel like he's trying to hurt him?

Not at all......

"Xiaoying, come here, let's go back to the house."

The sky around was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and I didn't want to continue talking to Hua Ciyuan who was confused.

She turned, beckoned to the shadow behind her, and was about to go into the house.

The little radish head that had been looking at him behind him was screaming his name when he heard the flowers, his eyes lit up, and he immediately trotted over.

Hua Shi freed up a hand and held his somewhat cold little hand.

Hua Ciyuan, who was completely ignored, watched the wooden door close under his nose, and snorted viciously.

He felt a little triumphant......

In the past half a month, Li has been very attentive to him, stuffing all kinds of delicious food into his house, and even building a small stove in his house to open a small stove for him.

Li has been eagerly looking forward to him to study his homework well, and the last time he reported in the town, he paid the registration fee of three taels of silver, and his mother said that he would give it, and he was not distressed at all.

Li's changed attitude has given Hua Yiyuan, who has been stumbling and submissive, inflated.

In addition, Li has been telling him all the time that he will definitely be able to pass the exam this time, and he has won the reputation of Xiucai all of a sudden, which also makes Hua Ciyuan a little inflated.

He even felt that he could win the township test in one fell swoop...... During this time, he was in the house, memorizing the homework of the books and rarely going out......

Suddenly, I heard Li's screams in the house, and when I saw Li's fall to the ground, I couldn't get up for a long time, and Hua Shi on the side was still watching coldly.

His heart suddenly rose, and he even gave Hua Shi a conspiracy theory at once, believing that Hua Shi just didn't want him to be better, so he deliberately wanted to hurt the Li family, so that no one would treat him well......

After all, what he has now is all that Li Shi forcibly peeled off from Hua Shi's body and gave it to him.

In the early years, Li's indifferent attitude towards him made him always inferior and sensitive, and now these good things that Li gave him are not easy for him to get.

also saw Li's indifferent attitude towards Hua Shi now, Hua Shi held a grudge against Hua Shi, and made a move against Li, he was naturally angry and wanted to give Hua Shi some color to see......

It's just that he has a rough tongue and a stupid mouth, and because of the jealousy and dissatisfaction he has squeezed over the years, he couldn't help but say that......

Now that Hua Shi is gone, Hua Ciyuan is so proud in his heart, and he will inevitably breathe a sigh of relief, he can't send it, he can't go up or down, and he is uncomfortable and panicked.

He secretly held a grudge in his heart.

In November's township exam, he must pass the exam, and then he will be able to get ahead! After gaining fame and reward, he will leave this poor and remote place......

As for his unproductive children, he has a way to make them unbearable, especially when it comes to flowers!

When the flower left on the other side, he didn't know the twists and turns in the heart of the flower.

She pulled the flower shadow into her house, and the little guy was held by him, and he has always been very honest, and he has no intention of resisting at all.

The room was dark, and when the door was closed, it was even darker, and nothing could be seen.

Hua Shi pursed his lips, relying on his familiar muscle memory, swept around the house twice, pulled the flower shadow, and stood at the door without moving.

The little oil lamp left in her house burned out yesterday, saving so long that it has been used now, and not a drop is gone.

There was no lighting at this time, and it was not easy for her to pull the flower shadow into the room.

"Sister......

Flower Shadow raised her hand and tugged at the corner of Huashi's clothes.

In the dark, Hua Shi couldn't see his face clearly, but if she didn't look at it, she also estimated that she could guess......

The little one must have been blinking at this time with big swarthy eyes, looking up at her with his head tilted.

"Shhhh

Hua Shi let go of the hand holding him, and still stood at the position of the small wooden door of the room without moving.

In a dark house, there was a half-silence.

The little one also stood next to her obediently, did not move, and was obedient, and did not make any more noise.

“… Bang......"

After a while, the sound of the door being closed was faintly heard outside.

Flower time exhaled.

The flowers standing outside the eaves should have entered the house by this time.

She didn't bother to fight with him, she didn't want to quarrel with him, so she could only wait for him to go back to her house before she came out of her house with Little Flower Shadow.

Outside the eaves, it was not as dark as in the house, at least through the faint moonlight, some real objects could be seen clearly......

"Sister......

The shadow of the flower, who had been allowed her to pull, stood back under the eaves of the courtyard at this time, and looked at her obediently.

When you spend it, you can understand the simple meaning of the little guy.

I've been waiting for her to share delicious food for myself......

"Your nose is really smart."

Hua Shi said half teasingly, lowered his head, lifted the cloth in the bamboo basket, and the things that were hidden inside were exposed.

The two large pieces of bulging butter paper wrapped in something immediately caught the little one's eyeballs.

He stood on tiptoe with some impatience, lifted his face vigorously, and looked into the basket.

"Click......

The sound of lifting the butter paper when the flower is lifted, and in the quiet night, the trivial sound is particularly deafening.

"Take three of the same, and there will be no more."

Hua Shi whispered, took three of the wrapped iced dates and candied dates for him, and stuffed them into his little hand.

These winter dates were originally full and heavy, and the ones that survived in the bamboo basket were also carefully selected by her.

The portion was really not enough, and she only ate one of each of them herself, unwilling to be greedy, and waited for this little thing to be sold for money......

Xiaohuaying pinched three of them in one hand, and the palms of her small hands were stuffed to the brim and couldn't be closed.

Finally got the delicious food he had in mind, and the little guy couldn't hear what Hua Shi was saying, so he buried his head, grabbed a piece of frosted dates, and stuffed it into his mouth.

The frosting on the skin of the jujube has been heated and refined, and the water inside has been evaporated and refined.

It's fragrant and crispy, take a bite of it, first the fragrant fried taste of sugar, and after eating the pulp, it is the fruity sweetness of jujubes, sweet and refreshing.

When she lowered her head to cover the cloth of the bamboo basket again, Xiaohuaying had already gnawed two, and what she was holding in her palm suddenly was only one date.

"Go back to the house, don't stand outside."

Hua Shi pointed in the direction of the Westinghouse at the entrance of the hall, and motioned for him to be careful and walk back.

The little one, who was concentrating on eating, was gently pushed, and then walked in that direction with the strength of the flower.

Hua Shi stood where he was, watching him push the door into the house before walking towards the open courtyard door.

When she came back, she heard a cry from the yard, and she knew that something was wrong, so she only walked in with a bamboo basket, and the cloth she was holding in her other hand was leaned against the door frame by her hand, and she did not bring it in.

Now that the people were gone, and the farce was gone, she coaxed Xiaohuaying back to the house, and then walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and picked up the half of the cloth that was quietly leaning against the low wall.

The cloth that was picked up was only left for a while, and half of the cloth was wet.

Outside the house, the snow was falling and the cold wind was howling......

Hua Shi breathed a sigh of relief, put his things on the wooden table, hugged the obedient black cat, and lay on the kang bed in the dark, hungry and tired......

…
