Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 308 A Heartwarming Gift

Liu Ya clearly remembered that Siping put the bamboo tube here the day before.Chunniu also said that she wanted to build a shack to store things, so that the bamboo tubes would not be placed in the grass so casually that they would be bitten by bugs and mountain mice.But looking at it now, why is there not a single bamboo tube?
"Second Sister, did Uncle Siping carry the bamboo tube home yesterday?" Xiao Shu'er guessed, but after thinking about it again, he said: "That's not right, Uncle Siping went to our house first after going down the mountain. It’s not convenient to run around with a bamboo tube.”

Liu Ya was also puzzled, she shook her head slightly and said: "Yesterday it was obviously placed here, none of the three of us would be so stupid as to carry the bamboo tube down the mountain."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya patted Xiao Shu'er and said, "Don't worry, let's look for it again, maybe I never came here, and I remembered the wrong place to put the bamboo tube."

But the spring is such a big place, and there is no distance of more than [-] steps, and it is not suitable to put things up and down. It must be the place they were looking for before.But why did the several big bamboo tubes disappear?

Liu Ya was surprised, but felt that this matter shouldn't be so complicated. Maybe it was just that someone passed by and saw the bamboo tube, and it happened to be useful for his family, so he carried it away?

"Second sister, are there a lot of small wild flowers here? Someone must have been here." The little tree was more careful, and pulled out the grass to search carefully, and found that the grass where the bamboo tube was originally placed was overwhelmed, but now the bamboo tube is gone. , but there are many small wild flowers placed there.Because these wild flowers are broken off, it looks like they were picked by humans, and they are not randomly scattered here, but rather scattered here.

"A lot of small wild flowers?" Liu Ya heard a flash in her mind, and a figure appeared.I hurried over to have a look, and saw that there were indeed several small wild flowers placed in the place where the bamboo tube was originally placed.I can't tell what shape it is, but it should be placed artificially.

Liu Ya understood in her heart, and said to Xiao Shu'er: "Okay, let's go, go directly to Xiaoshuipu to have a look."

"Going over there? But haven't fetched water yet? How about I cut some bamboos now. Anyway, it's just to make buckets, and it doesn't take much trouble." Xiao Shu'er didn't understand what was going on for a while, and was about to go down the mountain to the bamboo forest run.

Liu Ya grabbed him and said, "There's no need to chop bamboo, I guess someone fetched water for us and carried it to the small water shop."

"Really? Is it Uncle Siping?" Xiao Shuer guessed, and said again: "No, when I was waiting on the mountain road one morning, I saw Uncle Siping and Aunt Chunniu went to Lijiatun together."

"You'll know when you get there." Liu Ya didn't explain, and led Xiao Shu'er forward.

After turning over the mountain, I saw their small water shop.Before Liu Ya and the others approached, they saw a person coming out of it. He was not tall, but he was wearing a plain white gown with a royal blue belt and a silk sash around his waist; It is also tied with a royal blue ribbon, and the whole person looks as elegant as a green bamboo, as indifferent as a cloud.

"Is it the second brother-in-law? He is so handsome today." Xiao Shu'er was so surprised that he already ran over, calling, "Second brother-in-law, you brought the bamboo tube here."

"Yeah. It's easy for me to carry it over here. You two are women and children, so it's too heavy on your shoulders." Cang Qianche smiled slightly, walked up to Liu Ya, and gently pulled her away. Pulling her sleeve, said: "Come in and have a look, I have something for you."

"What is it?" Liu Ya pretended not to care, but her heart had already started to "plop".Although she thought it might be a small wild flower or something, but thinking about it, how could there be a decent gift in ancient times?Cang Qianche's intention is enough.

Cang Qianche saw that Liu Ya didn't show surprise, nor was she too disappointed, she just said, "Come in and have a look."

Liu Ya didn't dodge either, let Cang Qianche take her by the sleeves, and drag her into the small bamboo shed.

Unexpectedly, I didn't see any garlands or flower baskets hanging in the bamboo shed. It was still the same as before, but it looked a little cleaner and tidier.Could it be that the reason Cang Qianche let him in to look at it was that he had already cleaned the place very diligently?
Seeing that Liu Ya didn't notice, Cang Qianche pouted at the stone table and said, "Look over there, what's on the table?"

"Cloth?" Liu Ya answered casually, and knew that the thing covered under the cloth was what Cang Qianche wanted to give her.

There was indeed something half the size of a basketball on the stone table. It was covered with a piece of linen, which was not particularly conspicuous. If you didn't pay attention, the color of the linen was similar to that of the stone table.

Liu Ya walked over and looked at Cang Qianche again, Cang Qianche said: "Open it and have a look."

Xiao Shu'er also said anxiously: "Yes, Second Sister, why don't you open it and have a look. I want to know what Second Sister-in-law gave you."

"En." Liu Ya nodded, feeling nervous and anticipating already.I also feel that Cang Qianche is quite good at adjusting the atmosphere, and even knows how to cover things with a quick cloth.

However, Liu Ya has also made up her mind, even if there is still a cluster of small wild flowers under the cloth, she must show surprise.At least she felt it.

Unexpectedly, what I saw when I lifted the sackcloth was not small flowers or grass, but a stone bowl.A stone as big as a large sea bowl was hollowed out and polished in one piece. The handwork is not very good, and it can be seen that the edge of the stone bowl is a little crooked.The stone is also a common stone on the mountain, but the whole stone is as black as ink, and occasionally one or two pieces of quartz are distributed, like small flowers scattered among the stones.

And this stone bowl was filled with more than half of the water, and the bottom of the bowl was covered with a layer of colored stones, a small copper money plant was planted, and two extremely small white fish were swimming among the water plants.The white fish is not like the ordinary small fish in the creek. Although it is only white, its fins and tail are very long, and it looks like it is dancing in the water, which is very charming.

"It took me three nights to polish this by myself. I originally wanted to serve you rice, because you are too thin, and such a big bowl is enough. But after I finished it, I felt that the handwork was too rough, and the bowl was too heavy. I’m afraid your wrists will get sore when you hold it. It’s a pity to lose it, so I planted money grass and put two small fish in it to make a fish basin for you to play.”

Cang Qianche said it a little shyly, as if it was a pity because of his poor craftsmanship and lack of creativity.And when it comes to the fact that it was originally used to serve Liu Ya, there is still a deep pampering and distress in his eyes.

However, Liu Ya's heart was already crisp, as if her heart was full of tenderness and sweetness, and it seemed as if a puddle of water was rippling from the tip of her heart, and ripples were appearing layer upon layer.
