Fragrant spring

Fragrant Spring - 522 Dongchuang

  Shaowang didn't startle Uncle Jiu, he sat down on a nearby rock and looked at Uncle Jiu carefully.Ever since Shaowang became sensible, Uncle Nine has lived a leisurely and peaceful life.It seems that the major events and minor events in the village have nothing to do with him. Although it is ordinary, Uncle Jiu lives happily.

  Looking at Jiu Shugong's shiny bald head, Shaowang thought of the monk in "Shaolin Boy". Isn't Jiu Shugong a monk in real life?No competition with the world, no pursuit of fame and fortune.Shaowang suddenly saw the shadow of his future from Uncle Jiu, and before he knew it, Shaowang leaned against the loquat tree and fell asleep.

  Shaowang slept for half a day, and uncle Jiu woke him up.Shaowang wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, looked at Uncle Jiu, Housan and Jiazhen who came back with a load of firewood, and left without saying a word.

  Hou San filled a bowl of porridge with a bowl he had put vegetables in the morning, and squatted under the eaves to eat. Looking at Shaowang who had gone away, he said: "This kid is really strange. I left quietly. I seem to have changed my personality recently, and I don’t like to join in the fun anymore.”

  Uncle Jiu stroked his goatee and said, "People will always change. It's not surprising if you see through it. Just like you back then and you now, don't you also change a lot?"

  Monkey Three thinks about it too, maybe others will say that he has changed like he said about Shaowang.Monkey Three chuckled a few times, and continued to drink the porridge.

  Jiazhen was already full, leaning against the door to listen to Monkey San and Uncle Jiu talking.Suddenly, Hou San's previous appearance flashed in her mind again, these days she can often remember some past events intermittently.Following Uncle Jiu's words, she asked Monkey Three: "What were you like before? Did you like petty theft?"

  Monkey Three didn't care much about Jiazhen's words, and replied casually: "At that time, I was alone, and no one was looking after me. Over time, I developed a habit of eating and being lazy. Petty theft is inevitable."

  "Did you and Hua Zi steal shiitake mushrooms and sell them to our family?" Jiazhen continued to ask, every time she recalled the past, her head would hurt a little, and she seemed unwilling to recall the past.There is always a force that makes her remember desperately, but the more she remembers, the more headaches she gets.

  "Yeah, at that time I was robbed of money, and the price of cabbage was not given..." Hou San realized that Jiazhen had remembered something again, and also realized that he had accidentally said something wrong, so he quickly stopped talking.

  "Youcai? Who is Youcai?" Jiazhen's head hurt even more when she heard the name Youcai. She clenched her fist and beat her own head.

  "If you have money, you are alone. Go to the water tank and take out the bamboo sticks soaked in the morning, and use them later." Hou San didn't dare to say too much about money, so he had to change the subject and get off the hook. go aside.

  "Oh." Jiazhen didn't want to ask any more, and started to walk to the water tank in the kitchen.Now that the autumn wind is blowing, the broken bamboo strips will quickly lose water, and it is easy to tear when tied with firewood. Soaking in water can increase its toughness.

  Monkey Three had a full lunch and sat under the loquat tree to have a smoke with Uncle Jiu.The Housan family is doing well for the time being, and it will be a while before they buy a meal of pork.Although there are still plenty of fish, the people in the mountains do hard work. The fish are only delicious, and they can't replenish much energy.A life with meat is a life with taste. Only when there is oil and water in the stomach can one work to endure hunger.

  Monkey Three rested for a while, then prepared to go up the mountain again with his hatchet and Jiazhen on his back.Jiazhen took a straw hat and put it on Monkey San's head. Monkey San turned his head and asked, "You give me the straw hat, what about you?"

  Jiazhen took out a folded sun hat with a white cloth and small steel ring, shook it, and said, "I have this."

  This kind of sun hat is very trendy, and only a few young girls in the village have it.Monkey Three hadn't seen Jiazhen wearing it before, so he asked, "When did you buy it, why don't I know?"

  "I don't know when I bought it, maybe I bought it when you didn't come. I just remembered that I put it in the box, so I found it." Jiazhen saw that the monkey was picking firewood for three days, and his neck was tanned. When I took off my clothes at night, I could clearly see that the areas covered by clothes were black and the areas not covered by clothes were black and white.So I turned it out and put it on, and gave the monkey three shades of the straw hat I was wearing now.

  Jiazhen's memory is not very good. She remembers buying a fashionable sun hat, but she can't remember when she bought it.This sun hat was actually bought after she and Youcai divorced. At that time, she wanted to do some farm work after the divorce and needed to buy a hat, so she bought this sun hat and came back.But when I bought the sun hat, it was too trendy and beautiful, and I was reluctant to wear it, so I put it in the box and bought another ordinary straw hat.

  Monkey Three got a little excited, took off the straw hat to cover his face, and smelled it.The straw hat smelled of Jiazhen's hair and sweat, and Hou San felt at home from this smell.Monkey Three put on the new straw hat, and said clumsily, "Why did you think of wearing a straw hat for me?"

  Jiazhen took a look at Uncle Jiu under the tree, and said in a low voice with a slight flush on her face, "You've sun-dried all day, and your skin is peeling off, don't you think it's spicy?"

  Jiazhen's words were full of love, Hou San really wanted to call his wife, then put his arms around her and kiss her hard.It's just that a man in the mountains would think about doing such a romantic thing, and with Uncle Nine by his side, Hou San just looked at Jiazhen affectionately, making Jiazhen feel embarrassed and her neck moving unnaturally , seeing her bow her head.

  Although Jiazhen is not yet a normal person, she has been with Housan for so long.She can still feel Monkey Three's care for her.So she gradually developed feelings for Hou San, this kind of feeling has nothing to do with what Hou San did with her at night and licked her.Since Monkey Three didn't do that with her, she has already relied on Monkey Three.This may be the love for a long time.

  Just as Monkey Three was looking at Jiazhen affectionately, and Jiazhen was also looking at his own toes affectionately, Lin Hua's voice sounded, "Yo Yo Yo! What's wrong? Did you get scolded for disobedience?" What a shame, such a sensational scene, but Lin Hua regarded it as a monkey scolding Jiazhen.In fact, at first glance, I really thought that Monkey Three was swearing.

  Monkey Three turned his head, looked at Monkey Three, and asked: "You didn't go to buy with Liping, why did you come here?"

  Lin Hua went under the loquat tree first, took out a cigarette and gave it to Uncle Jiu, and then said, "What are you buying at noon, and you don't have anything to buy for me."

  Jiazhen walked aside shyly, not daring to look at Lin Hua.

  Lin Hua must have something to do when he came here, otherwise he wouldn't have come.Monkey Three asked: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly, I have to pick firewood."
