Chapter 42: New Residents

The mountain trail is not too steep.

The brother and sister helped each other down the mountain.

"Don't go up the mountain alone in the future." Sanfu told his sister, who looked very happy with her round head: "Otherwise, if you fall into the pit, no one will pull you up." ”

"I know, my brother is so long-winded."

Lin Xiangrong made a naughty grimace at Sanfu, grabbed his arm and kept coquettish, making Sanfu helpless to shake his head.

"It's cold."

At sunset, the sky is getting late, and the vivid breeze blows by, bringing up a piece of cold air.

The brother and sister fought all the way, and when they were caught off guard, they were blown by the wind and shivered.

"Let you wear more." Sanfu took off his coat and put it on his sister: "I'm going to be disciplined by my mother again when I'm sick." ”

"I thought I'd be back soon."

As a result, I didn't expect it to drag on for a long time with twists and turns.

Lin Xiangrong stuck out her tongue and was slapped on the head by Sanfu, she shrunk her neck and grabbed her coat with her hand to avoid being blown down by the wind.

The more they went, the more remote they became.

"This way... It's a bit off, are you sure you can get home on this road? ”

Seeing that he was gradually taken to a remote place by Sanfu, Lin Xiangrong looked around curiously.

She's never been here.

It's too remote and sparsely populated, and the children in the village won't come here to play.

"Yes."

Sanfu nodded affirmatively: "Dafu and Erfu took me here to play." ”

It's just here to fight.

Dafu and Erfu together have never beaten him alone.

"Oh." Lin Xiangrong nodded, holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and followed Sanfu with great trust.

After turning around for a while, when they were about to walk out of the middle of nowhere, the two saw a courtyard that seemed to have been uninhabited for a long time, and the gate was opened.

The weeds in the courtyard were cleared, and a few pieces of clothing were tied to the rope on which the clothes were dried.

The smoke rises, the sound of chopping wood is heard in the courtyard, and the occasional conversation makes the atmosphere of life in the courtyard even stronger.

"Huh?"

Are you a resident moving from town?

Lin Xiangrong frowned, feeling that things were not so simple.

Could it be that Liu Meng has been sticking a hot face to a cold ass, chasing her since she was a child, and she has rejected her countless times?

She remembered that the man had ended up missing.

However, a few years later, when the male protagonist came to Xingjia Village and was fell in love with Liu Meng at first sight, she seemed to be still chasing after that person with a hot face and a cold ass.

Riding a donkey to find a horse?

Lin Xiangrong bared his teeth and couldn't help but sigh: "Awesome." ”

"What's so good?"

Hearing this, Sanfu tugged Lin Xiangrong's little hand: "What are you muttering, I'm going home soon, it's dark for a while." ”

"Oh, got it."

I will indeed be scolded if I go back late.

Lin Xiangrong nodded, and was led back by Sanfu.

She couldn't help but look back, only to find a tall boy taller than Mifuku in front of the open door.

The night was blurry, and the last rays of sunlight disappeared.

It seemed that the boy who was looking at the two of them had a blurred face, which could only make people perceive that he had been staring at the backs of the two of them.

Lin Xiangrong was slightly startled, and immediately, he waved his hand at him on tiptoe, trying to make a good impression.

The boy ignored the gesture and returned to the courtyard mercilessly, closed the door, and walked into the courtyard to continue chopping wood.

"Lu Xiao, is there someone outside the door?"

A tall and handsome woman walked out of the house, her brow surrounded by sorrow, her eyes were dead and unwavering, and her gaze only fluctuated a little when it fell on her son, and she looked less lifeless.

"It's two kids passing by."

Lu Xiao replied lightly, lowered his head and waved the axe to chop wood, and quickly finished chopping the few firewoods, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, went to see Ruan Qing who was crying at the moon, and persuaded: "Mom, you go back to the house, I will sweep the house in a while, and you can rest early." ”

"Ah Xiao, if it weren't for Mom's fault, Xiao Yuan wouldn't have died." Ruan Qing said with self-pity: "If it weren't for Mom's discouragement, we wouldn't have been kicked out."

"Mom."

Lu Xiao threw the axe aside, helped Ruan Qing back to the house to rest, and said seriously: "I will take care of you, don't think about Dad, he doesn't love us at all." ”

Otherwise, why did the man kick them out?

Ruan Qing kept crying, but mechanically retorted: "Impossible." ”

Why is it impossible?

Lu Xiao was pushed back by a sentence, speechless for a while, he racked his brains to comfort for a while, but was hurt by Ruan Qing's crying, and she muttered over and over again the sentence 'He must love me, I must be doing badly'.

All he could say was, "Yes, Dad loves us." ”

When Ruan Qing heard this, he laughed happily and urged Lu Xiao to go back to sleep.

Back to the room.

There was a smell of yin and tide in the dark and narrow room, and there was always a small sound in the room, it seemed to be a creature such as cockroaches and rats, Lu Xiao retracted into the quilt, and his hands gradually clenched hard.

The other side.

"Oh, it's back." Wang Cuilan waited at the door for a while, only to see the two children who came back together, she breathed a sigh of relief, dragged the two of them over, and after seeing that they were safe, she followed behind her ass and muttered: "Don't come back so late next time." ”

"Milk, look at the good things I brought back." Lin Xiangrong hugged her arm and coquettishly, pulled Wang Cuilan to the courtyard, and mysteriously opened her coat, revealing a complete ginseng inside.

"It was me and my third brother who pulled it out of the mountain, because we were looking for ginseng, we also fell into the pit, and we hurt all over the body." Lin Xiangrong stood on tiptoe, rubbed in Wang Cuilan's arms, pouted, and his cheeks were bulging like a little squirrel.

"What?"

Hearing that Lin Xiangrong had fallen, Wang Cuilan was shocked, and hurriedly pressed her baby granddaughter's shoulder, turned her around, lifted her shirt and touched her round little belly, and held two small hands to check it repeatedly, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that there was no bruise on her body, "Didn't you break it?" ”

"It's okay, the pit isn't deep at all." Lin Xiangrong smiled and ran to the house with his coat and ginseng: "Dad! Mother! Look what good stuff I've come back with. ”

[Hey, hey, it's a super big ginseng, and if you sell it, you don't have to worry about running out of food and have no money to buy it. 】

The two who heard the voice looked up.

Zhou Zhaodi covered her mouth and chuckled: "Let me guess." ”

"Is it seaweed caught in the river, or is it a yellow eel picked up in the field?"

"Neither!" Lin Xiangrong stared at her with bright eyes, with a mysterious expression: "Guess again, it's a good thing." ”

[Guess it, guess it's super super good ginseng! ] 】

Zhou Zhaodi, who had already heard the answer, rolled her eyes: "Ah, I know, it's ginseng, right?" ”

"That's amazing!" Lin Xiangrong's eyes lit up: "How did Mom guess?"

Zhou Zhaodi smiled helplessly and nodded her baby girl's eyebrows: "Silly girl." ”

Of course you told us.

But she didn't say anything, just urged her daughter to wash her hands and eat.

"Oh." Hanging his head like a lost puppy, Lin Xiang walked to the basin with a sneer: "Mom, tomorrow I will ask my dad to sell ginseng, so that after the family food is eaten, there will be no hunger." ”

"Okay, little clever ghost."
