After being rejected by the school beauty, he picked up a treasure girl

Hearing Lin Xi's words, Zhong Hailan didn't think it was inappropriate, but comforted her and said:

"It doesn't matter. After it's cooked, if you think it tastes good, you can eat it. If you think it doesn't taste good, don't force yourself. Just treat it as your own, and don't deliberately cater to our tastes."

"Okay, thank you, auntie."

Zhong Hailan gave her an angry look,
"Why did you say thank you?"

Xue Yang on the side ate the last bite of cucumber, approached his mother, and said coquettishly:
"Mom, I don't want to eat egg yolks tomorrow morning."

He has not liked eating egg yolks since he was a child, but in order not to waste it, Ms. Zhong would find a way to force him to finish it every time.

He said that he would not boil the eggs, but Ms. Zhong said that eggs are nutritious and must be eaten.

Moreover, according to Xue Yang's understanding of Ms. Zhong, there will definitely be boiled eggs tomorrow morning.

No, Xue Yang took the opportunity to see if he could get some benefits for himself.

The results were no surprise.

It’s impossible not to eat egg yolks.

"You brat, if I hadn't saved eggs for you since you were little, would you have grown so tall now?"

Zhong Hailan picked up the pole and was about to beat him. After thinking about it, Lin Xi was still watching, so she put the pole down and beat him with her fists instead.

However, Xue Yang is too tall, and Zhong Hailan is only about 155 at best, so it is not too difficult to beat him.

After only two blows, he was out of breath. Seeing this, Xue Yang bent down without leaving a trace, making it easier for Ms. Zhong to beat him.

Lin Xi watched the mother and son playing around, with envy in her eyes.

In her memory, she had never had a fight with her mother like this.

She tried to think back, but couldn't even remember her smiling face.

Some just keep a straight face. Every time I see her, the first thing I do is ask her if she has completed her homework, how well she has done it, and if she has been lazy.

Then add other homework to her.

It seems that in her eyes, she is just a machine used for learning.

It is precisely because of this that she has always resisted learning.

Her studies are good, but no matter how good she is, she will get bored if she is forced to do so every day.

"Mom, pick some eggplants and go home."

"The eggplant is not as big as your thumb, how can you eat it?"

"Mom, it's not me who eats it, it's Xiaoxi who likes to eat fish-flavored eggplant."

Hearing that Xiaoxi liked to eat, Zhong Hailan found a few larger eggplants and picked them.

I picked cucumbers, bitter gourds, eggplants, and other vegetables, and after a while, I put most of the bucket in them.

"It's enough to eat, pick it when you want to eat it, otherwise it won't be fresh. We grow it at home, so it's better to eat it fresh. By the way, Xiaoyang, take Xiaoxi to our orchard. The longan is ripe. "

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot. There is a longan tree at home. Come on, I will take you to pick it." Xue Yang also just remembered.

He came to the vegetable garden, firstly to find Lin Xi, and secondly, to pick some longans to eat.

"Xiaoxi, remember to spray more toilet water, there are many mosquitoes." Zhong Hailan instructed.

"I know, Auntie."

Xue Yang took Lin Xi out of the vegetable garden, and then walked inside along the road.

Their orchard is not far from the vegetable garden.

It was also at this time that Lin Xi noticed that the fruits hanging on the branches by the roadside were longans.

On the way just now, I was busy looking at other things and didn't notice this.

"It's so nice here." She said with emotion, "Good mountains, good water, and fresh air. I feel more comfortable than ever after coming here."

Lin Xi took a deep breath, feeling that it was not impossible for her to live here forever.

"When I was a kid, there were no cars on this road. I often came here to play with my friends, and we even went to the mountains to dig out bird's nests."

"Take out the bird's nest?" Lin Xi's eyes sparkled, it must be fun.

"But then there were fewer and fewer bird nests, and we gradually grew up, so we stopped digging them out." "What a pity. However, the little birds are so cute, what do you plan to do after you dig them out?"

"Foster them. I have raised many mynas. When they grew up, I let them fly back to nature. Of course, some of them died. I cried for a long time."

When it comes to this, Xue Yang feels funny.

He squatted in front of his house and cried for a long time because of a dead starling.

People passing by thought something had happened to him.

I didn’t understand until I saw the bird on his hand.

Later, he built a grave for the bird and often visited and talked to it after class.

Xue Yang did not plan to tell Lin Xi these things, otherwise, she would make fun of him.

"Then they will be very sad if they leave their parents, right?"

"I didn't have these ideas when I was a kid. I just thought it was fun."

"Too."

"Did you see that creek? I used to fish there when I was a kid."

Lin Xi asked in surprise: "Will there be fish there?"

"Of course I do, but I don't have any tools with me right now, otherwise I would definitely scare you."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Lin Xi was amused and laughed.

"I'm curious about how you would scare me."

Xue Yang glanced at the sky. The sun had already set. After picking the longan, it was almost dark. "I'll bring you here to play another day. It's a bit late today."

"Okay."

Lin Xi was eager to try. She really wanted to know how Xue Yang planned to catch fish.

"We're here. That's our longan tree there. The road is not easy to walk on. Please follow me closely." Xue Yang held Lin Xi's hand tightly.
"it is good."

Lin Xi followed Xue Yang, as if the road ahead, no matter how difficult it was, was not that important.

Because the man in front of her will protect her.

Walking through a path full of weeds, Xue Yang stopped in front of several longan trees with branches hanging on them.

Longan trees are not very tall, maybe some are not as tall as Linxi, so they can be picked casually.

"Are these all from your family?"

"Some are, some are not. Like this one, this one, or that one, the ones with bigger fruits belong to our family. In addition to these, our family also has hills, farmland, and land. It doesn't matter if you can't remember it now, in the future You will remember it gradually.”

Lin Xi's pretty face turned slightly red. It felt a bit like Xue Yang was introducing her family's wealth.

As far as rural areas are concerned, these lands and fruit trees are basically their most valuable assets.

"The conditions of our family here are not bad." Xue Yang said scornfully.

"I know. Please ask Mr. Xue for more advice in the future."

The process of picking longans is not difficult. They are usually picked and eaten immediately, so picking a few bunches is enough.

"Is it enough?" Lin Xi took one and asked.

"That's enough, pick it again after eating."

"it is good."

As soon as Xue Yang finished picking, Zhong Hailan came over.

"Xiaoxi, it's getting dark soon, go home soon."

"Mom, why didn't you call me home?" Xue Yang said dissatisfiedly.

Ms. Zhong rolled her eyes at him and said, "If a big guy like you doesn't know the way home, then don't come back."
