At almost six o'clock in the afternoon, a group of people finally came back, and the one who took it back was Xiaoxi, who flew over and landed on Zhang Taiping's shoulder, awakening Zhang Taiping, who was squinting and his heart was in a state of chaos.

Afterwards, crisp arguments were heard.

"I should have picked the most." This is Yaya's voice.

"How much did you pick? Look at mine." This was Fan Ming's voice.

"It wasn't you who picked it, it was Wukong who picked it." Yaya shouted.

Fan Ming said with a smile: "Wukong listened to me, so it can be considered that I won it."

"That's why Wukong got the most picks, anyway, it's not you." Yaya firmly refused to admit that Fan Ming got the most picks.

Zhang Taiping smiled, stretched out his fingers and lightly flicked Xiaoxi's bright yellow mouth that was pecking at his ears, turned his hand and found several strawberries, which were his favorite, and immediately pecked happily.

After a while, a group of people, big and small, appeared in sight, holding baskets in their hands. Combined with the conversation between the two, one big and one small, they must have gone to the mountain to pick something.

Beside him is a Wukong who walks wobbly, wearing a simple apron made of patterned and colored stripes on his body, which looks a bit like the tiger leather vest worn by the Great Sage from a distance.You don't need to think about it to know that this is Fan Ming's masterpiece. After studying needlework for a few days with Cai Yazhi, she made this simple dress by herself and put it on Wu Kong's body forcibly, while the man who walked on two hind legs The request is also what she asked for.Although Wukong was unwilling, but he dared not resist because of her power, so he could only surrender shamefully.Although he is also called Wukong, he does not have the spirit of a great sage who dares to resist and fight.

Seeing Zhang Taiping in the courtyard, Yaya let out a cry of joy and ran over with her legs spread apart.But there was someone who ran faster than her. Wukong wanted to jump on Zhang Taiping's shoulders before her, but Zhang Taiping refused. The dirty feet that had just been on the ground fell on him and he had to leave them on his clothes. Footprints!

Yaya threw herself into Zhang Taiping's arms, and said softly, "Father, Yaya misses you so much."

Fan Ming said from the side: "It's been two days since I saw you and you said you wanted to die. Are you chubby or not?" It's just that these words sound so sour.

Yaya ignored Fan Ming's provocation, proudly raised her head and nestled into her father's arms.

Zhang Taiping saw Tian Tian who was looking eager beside him, he waved to her, and also picked her up and sat on his lap.

"Do you want Uncle?"

"Think!" Tiantian said with bright eyes.Living in Zhang Taiping's house for such a period of time, needless to say the many advantages, the little girl is no longer the thin and yellow-haired look before, and she has begun to take on the scale of a jade carving.

"How much do you think?" Zhang Taiping asked.

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "I think the same as Yaya."

After hearing this, Yaya glanced at Fan Ming triumphantly.

Zhang Taiping rubbed the little girl's head affectionately, she is really a smart girl.Perhaps poverty is the best cornerstone to hone the mind.

Cai Yazhi and Ye Ling came last and asked, "I'm back." Although it was just three simple words, it was worth a thousand words.Whether it is worry, joy, or comfort, they are all condensed in these three words. Although these three words are short, they can warm people's hearts.

Zhang Taiping said: "I'm back."

"Have you eaten yet?" Cai Yazhi asked.

Zhang Taiping smiled wryly and said: "I haven't eaten all day today, and I didn't find anything to eat in the kitchen when I came back just now. I ate some fruits to temporarily deceive my stomach."

"Ah, then I'm going to cook quickly, you sit here for a while." Cai Yazhi said and put down the basket in her hand.

Zhang Taiping nodded and said: "Well, I put two fish in the kitchen basin, one black fish and one saber-toothed fish. The saber-toothed fish is best used to make soup, as for the black fish, you can eat it any way you like." you do."

"Understood." Cai Yazhi went into the house to cook, Ye Ling said hello to the master, and went to help her aunt cook.At the same time, Wukong, who was left out in the cold, also ran back to the house, not knowing what to do.

Fan Ming took a bench and sat beside her.

The three baskets are full of wild fruits, among which Wuling'er is the most.Zhang Taiping picked up a string and looked at it, it was still green at this time.

Yaya picked up a bunch of Zhang Taiping, and quickly said: "Father, you can't eat this before it's cooked. It's bitter, and you can eat it when it's red. Mom said that it's Schisandra chinensis after drying, which is a kind of medicinal material. Grandpa wants to eat it." medicine."

"As long as you know? Your father is a grown-up, but he must know that this is not good for you." Fan Ming glanced at Yaya and said with the utmost disdain.

Yaya is sitting in her father's arms and is happy right now, she has no time to argue with Fan Ming and ignores her.He took out a cracked fruit from the basket and said, "This is ripe and edible. It tastes like a banana." Then he peeled off the outer skin and tasted it in Zhang Taiping's mouth.

Zhang Taiping recognized this kind of wild fruit as "Ba Li Zha". I don't know why it is called this name, anyway, that's how people call it.It is as famous as Wuling'er in the mountains, and it is a good wild fruit.After ripening, the outer shell will explode a crack, and the texture and taste of the pulp inside are very similar to bananas, but it is just a spherical shape the size of a small potato.

Many children in the village may not have heard of the fruit banana, even if they have heard of it, they may not have eaten it, but they have eaten a lot of wild fruits that taste like bananas in the mountains. a kind of compensation.

Watching Yaya peel off and feed it to Zhang Taiping, Tiantian also peels off one and feeds it to Zhang Taiping's mouth.

Fan Ming seemed to be angry with Yaya on purpose, and also peeled off one in front of Yaya and fed it into Zhang Taiping's mouth.It made Yaya look at him angrily.Zhang Taiping could only smile wryly and shook his head, swallowing his mouth full of bananas.

Seeing Zhang Taiping's wry smile, Tiantian stopped feeding him wild fruits again, Zhang Taiping rubbed her head again and said, "Tiantian is the most obedient."

Tiantian enjoyed his action very much, and praised him happily, his eyes narrowed into a line from a smile.

Hearing Zhang Taiping's words, Fan Ming smiled, like a little hen that had won a battle, raised her head and left, leaving Yaya pouted in frustration.

Zhang Taiping also stole her head and said: "Okay, don't be angry, tell Dad what you did at home these two days."

Yaya and Tiantian began to chirp about everything from yesterday morning to this afternoon, like two happy larks.

Zhang Taiping listened quietly with a smile. At this moment, not only the body was relaxed, but also the peaceful heart.

For dinner, Cai Yazhi made pancakes, more than [-] pancakes.Half of the small ones that were cut into four pieces belonged to Cai Yazhi, Fan Ming and several children, and the other half that were not cut open belonged to the old man and Zhang Taiping.A pot of potato shreds was fried, with some green onions and green peppers in it, and it is the most refreshing to eat when rolled.

Zhang Taiping was also very hungry, he was satisfied after eating eight in one sitting.Although the old man is getting old, he has a strong body and a good appetite, at least much better than Cai Yazhi's appetite, not inferior to ordinary young men. He ate four pancakes.

Wukong did not sit with everyone this time, but lay down on a small table next to him, put two pancakes cut into quarters for him, and put some pancakes in a special plastic bowl for him. Potato shreds, let it be.

The little guy also rolled vegetables following the method of everyone on the table next to him, but he just wrapped the top and left the bottom, which added a bit of jokes and joy.

As for the two fish, the saber-toothed fish was boiled into a fish pond by Cai Yazhi, while the black fish did not move, and was temporarily kept in the pot for eating tomorrow.

It’s the first time I’ve heard of pancakes with fish ponds, but it feels good. The pancakes are a bit dry. Drink some fish soup after eating, just to fill the gap in your stomach.

The old man was surprised after taking a sip of the soup: "Where did this fish come from?"

Zhang Taiping's heart moved: "I caught it in the river in front of the gate."

"In the river in front of the door? That's almost it." The old man nodded and said.He knew about the running out of the Shanzhong Reservoir and the fish swimming down the river.

Zhang Taiping asked: "What's wrong?"

The old man said: "This kind of fish can only be found in the reservoir in the mountain. I was lucky enough to catch one when I entered the mountain a few years ago. The meat is very delicious. It is rare in the world, so I can still remember it now. "

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "The scientific name of this fish is saber-toothed fish. I was lucky enough to catch one when I went into the mountain last time."

"Sword-toothed fish? I don't know that."

After the meal, the old man rarely left immediately, but sat on the chair and smiled while watching the little girls tease the little foxes in the house.

Zhang Taiping also sat beside him and asked, "What did Grandpa do this afternoon?"

The old man replied: "Oh, I went to Old Man Tang's place to give him an injection in the afternoon."

Zhang Taiping was a little strange, he used to go directly to the old man's residence in the back room, why did he change it to that side today, so he asked, "Is it difficult for his legs to have so much phlegm?"

The old man waved his hand: "It's not what you imagined, his legs have begun to improve, but the current stage of treatment is a bit special, not only needing acupuncture, but also fire cupping, it will be difficult to walk for a while after the treatment, so turn to Where did he go, and rest with him after the treatment is over."

Only then did Zhang Taiping understand that just now he thought that Elder Tang's legs were too serious to be able to walk on the ground.

The old man sat in the room for a while and then left. Although the time was short, it was a good sign. In the past, he seldom got along with everyone when he was eating.It seems that he is deliberately not keeping close to his family members.

Although Zhang Taiping didn't understand the reason, he could feel that the old man had always had an unresolved knot in his heart.At almost six o'clock in the afternoon, a group of people finally came back, and the one who took it back was Xiaoxi, who flew over and landed on Zhang Taiping's shoulder, awakening Zhang Taiping, who was squinting and his heart was in a state of chaos.
