Peerless pastoral little green plum

Chapter 40 You Eat Slowly
At noon, Yao Huahua sat under the longan tree to rest hungry.

It was too late to go out in the morning, and there was no food at home. She originally planned to go back to have a rest at noon.But she looked at the peanut field in front of her, and she only dug the hole halfway.

She had to finish her work before dark. People in the countryside said that working early was not late, and that working at night was the most dangerous, and she might step on a snake.

Forget it, bear with it and finish the job.

Although it was the end of spring, the noon sun was scorching. Although Yao Huahua was wearing a bamboo hat, she was still suffering from the sun.But she can't control these things. As a peasant girl, she must be prepared to endure hardships.

In this way, the little figure worked on the slope until the afternoon. After the end of the day, the sun finally went to the other side of the mountain, and the body felt a lot more comfortable. Yao Huahua continued to work despite the hunger.

Later, I heard Yao Xianrou's voice from the foot of the mountain: "Sister, sister..."

Fresh meat?Why is he here?

She straightened up, wiped the sweat with the feet of her clothes, and replied again: "Hey——"

After a while, I saw Ban'er leading Xiao Xianrou coming up from the foot of the mountain. After coming up, Xiao Xianrou let go of Ban'er's hand, and jumped in front of Yao Huahua, holding a roasted sweet potato in his hand. The milky voice said childishly: "Sister, Brother Ban'er will give you something to eat."

Yao Huahua glanced at Ban'er. Ban'er was the same age as her, and was as tall as Yao Huahua. In the past two years, he and Yao Huahua often went to the foot of the mountain to collect dry firewood, and to pick weeds by the river.It's just that Yao Huahua didn't have much affection for him.

"Sister, it was Brother Ban'er who said he would send you roasted sweet potatoes, he was worried that you would be hungry," Xiao Xianrou explained.

Yao Huahua was hungry for a long time, so she picked up the roasted sweet potato and ate it, but because she didn't drink any water today, she almost choked.

Ban'er quickly took out the water bottle and handed it over: "Hua'er, drink your saliva first, tell me about you... you don't even bring your saliva when you go to work in the mountains."

Both Ban'er and Yao Huahua are in the period of changing their teeth. Yao Huahua is fine and doesn't talk much. As for Baner, he leaks air whenever he speaks, which is also ridiculous.

"Urgent," Yao Huahua explained, without talking too much nonsense, just drank water and swallowed the roasted sweet potatoes, and finally felt his body regain strength.

However, when she was eating roasted sweet potatoes, she thought of the scene of eating sweet potatoes with Pei Baoshan back then.In the past two years, she has also eaten a lot of roasted sweet potatoes, but none of them are as delicious as the one that Pei Baoshan shared with her.

Baner kept nagging at the side:

"Hua'er, eat slowly..."

"Hua'er, let me help you with some work. Anyway, I have nothing to do today."

"You have done so much work by yourself, I am not as good as you."

"..."

The longan slope in Yao Huahua’s house was finally saved. At first, the aunt didn’t believe that Yao Huahua could finish it, but when she went to the mountain, she saw that the peanut field was neatly hoeed. Not only the peanuts were planted, but also sprinkled. There was a layer of dung ash on it, and it didn't look like it was planted by a seven-year-old child.

……

Another three years passed by.

In the late spring of that year, Yao Dafu came back from the battlefield with a limp!

Only him!
Hearing that Yao Dafu was back, the yard of Yao's house was full of people, and everyone came to see Yao Dafu.

Maybe there were too many people who came to see him, so Yao Dafu simply moved a stool in the yard that afternoon to chat with the villagers, and he answered whatever the villagers asked.

Yao Huahua was also watching in the yard, and felt that although Yao Dafu was lame, he was very handsome.
