Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 190 Secret
Ban Xia's voice was stifled, but the final sound burst out in a strange tone.

Seeing that the figure was about the same height as herself, and the voice just now was very familiar, she held her breath for a closer look, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

But Gu Ya'er didn't know, so she went in, leisurely calling softly in the room: "Sister, you're back so soon?"

Ban Xia shook her head towards the figure on the ground, signaling her to hide in the shadow, and then said: "I haven't gone yet, you go first, I'll watch here, you timid, I'm afraid to wait for me You dare not go out at all when you come back."

Gu Ya'er walked out with a smile, "I'm afraid of the dark!"

She is really afraid of the dark, and when she came out, she kept talking to Ban Xia, and she was completely out of words: "Sister, you are right there, I went in... um , there are mosquitoes inside... I came out, are you still there?"

Ban Xia can only respond to her one way or the other.

When Gu Ya'er came out of the door, she ran into the room quickly, flicked her shoes, and climbed onto the bed, her voice became vague in an instant: "Well, I'm so sleepy, I fell asleep..."

She fell asleep so fast, Ban Xia didn't doubt it at all, after taking a look, she closed the door and came out.

Moving to the shadows outside, he said in a strange way: "Mint, you are so late at night, you scare me to death."

Mint just laughed hehe and didn't make a sound.

The two of them came out a little bit, the courtyard was extremely quiet, Ban Xia lowered his voice and asked, "How many times is this?"

Mint was taken aback, but didn't know how to answer, she shook her head, seeing that Banxia was going to be annoyed, she also complained: "How do I remember! How do you know I didn't go out just once?"

From the workshop side, bypass their two rooms, and then go to the stove. It turned out that when Mrs. Su Qian wanted Yuanchen to be raised by Jane, Ban Xia took Yuanchen to jump over the window of the stove. It’s just that this side was wasteland at that time. Later, when workshops were built, this side was naturally enclosed.

It's unlikely that Mint came in from here to find herself. Seeing her familiarity, she probably came in from the kitchen, go home and rest.

Thinking that someone can enter and leave the workshop freely like this, and people can't guard against it, Ban Xia has some fears, even if he doesn't steal things, he still feels panicked.

It's just that there is no time to pay attention to it.

What's the reason why mint has changed three times in half a day?
She followed Su Youyi up the mountain in the middle of the night again?But it doesn't seem necessary now, where else should I go outside?
Pinellia stared at Mint.

After saying a few words, Mint stuck out her tongue: "You are really a ghost."

This is what it means to not deny.

Mint is not a person who can hide his words. Seeing Banxia like this, he did not avoid it, so he smiled at Banxia and said: "Banxia, ​​I'm going out to play!"

This big night... going out to play?

Ban Xia rolled her eyes, "Then there's no need to go out at this time, but the second uncle and the second aunt know? When did you start going out? What fun things are there tonight? Are you alone?"

Asking this is just out of intention, but Mint nodded in response, "No."

no? !
"Then you—" the voice raised a little, and seeing that there was no movement, he breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed Mint's shoulder, "Who did you go with?"

Ban Xia was anxious, thinking about it carefully, no one in this village would mess around with Mint like this?Who is not detained to death, even if they are relatively free at that age, they can't be as wild as Mint.

Mint obviously hesitated for a moment, but his eyes were still bright. Under the moonlight, he looked very different from usual.

She herself didn't seem to be used to this kind of hesitation, and continued: "It's nothing, just with someone."

"who?"

Banxia still didn't let it go, Mint is too stubborn, but she is about the same age as me after all, if she is really bumped into or has any gossip, she... can't follow Wumei's old way, although Wumei is doing well now , but mint is too rigid and easy to break.

Seeing Banxia's expression becoming more cautious, Mint was a little dumbfounded: "You know it too."

Ban Xia breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay to know each other.

"Who is that?"

Mint scratched her head, then shook her head again.

"You are this?"

"I don't know what his name is, so I'll just call him a fool."

If it were someone else, Ban Xia would feel that she must have been played by someone, but Mint doesn't have that kind of mind, at least she won't play with her like that, but what does she mean by that, she doesn't even know the name of the person, and she dares to go out often play with others?This girl's nerves!

Seeing that Ban Xia was speechless, Mint hurriedly explained: "You know it too. Wasn't it all your idea when we were by the river?"

riverside?Ban Xia's first reaction was the Suan Confucian who was driven away that day, "Who did Uncle Wu provoke?"

I don't even believe what I said, and I'm not a stranger at all, so there's nothing to say.

Mint said sullenly: "That year when we went to pick up pebbles by the river, when we were paving the path here, didn't he still...he lay on a wooden board..."

In this way, Banxia had an impression, but she was even more surprised because of this impression. She remembered that when she saw something floating in the river, Mint jumped into the water again. At that time, both of them were young, and they almost didn't After being rescued, I almost passed away. When I rescued the person, the person's face was pale, and he didn't look like he could come back to life at all. The trauma was soaked in water, so I don't know how he persisted.

Anyway, now that he has been saved, Banxia thinks more about protecting himself wisely, seeing that he can't afford to offend him, but when he went to the bamboo forest again, the man had already left quietly, and she was worried For a long time, until there was no more news, I was relieved, and I never thought of this matter again.

She didn't expect Mint to be with such a person, but she didn't know when, how could she not be surprised.

Even if Banxia thinks that with Mint's temperament, she can't just find someone to marry, and she will definitely not marry such a person.

Does she know this?
"then you……"

But Mint seemed to have opened up the chatterbox, very proud, she pulled Ban Xiafu and sat down on the bamboo chair again.

Ban Xia turned her head to look at the door, and Gu Ya'er had fallen asleep at some point, moving around in a half-lying position.

Only then did she feel at ease.

"You don't know, once a fool came to our village, I recognized him as soon as I saw him, but he refused to admit it, and wanted to steal something from the bandit's lair, so I followed him, don't look at him changing his beard The clothes changed into a different person, I could see it between his eyebrows, after following him for a long time, he left." Mint seemed to be immersed in memories.

"I went to the river again, and I saw him again, you know, it was even more funny! He was like an old man, haha, I recognized him, and finally I followed him into the mountain, in a cave I almost couldn’t get out, and I finally found the way by following the bat, and then someone came out suddenly, I almost fell down the mountain, he pulled me, and I pulled his beard..."

Ban Xia listened absently.

"Fools are amazing. They can also catch fish by the river at night. We skewer them with bamboo slices and sprinkle salt on them. Grilling them is delicious!"

Chattering all the time.

Ban Xia looked at her, and felt that there was no need to say something, sometimes it was rare to be confused, maybe it would be better, at least now that person has no malice towards Mint, after all, she saved his life, but Mint has been following behind He, at some point, he might have thought about it, otherwise why would Mint not be able to get out of the cave?But Mint is happy in front of him, and he doesn't seem to have done anything out of the ordinary, so what does it matter what he does?
"Then what are you doing with him at night?" That's what matters.

"Bet! He always looks down on girls. Once he went up the mountain and lost to me. He also stole things from my father's kiln, went out to grill fish and rabbits, and picked fruits..."

Ban Xia rubbed Mint's hair, didn't say anything, just said: "Then you should go out less in the future, after all, you are too old..."

Speaking of this, Mint suddenly felt a little stuffy and relaxed.

"Sure enough, I didn't misread you Pinellia! I thought you were going to teach me a lesson. I didn't want to be suffocated at home all day. When I'm older, I'll build a house on the mountain. What do you think? When you want to go hunting, go hunting, plant the land if you want, go shopping if you want, you don’t have to think about anything, and there won’t be so many people whispering in your ears..."

"Well, good." Ban Xia replied.

Everyone has the right to choose their own life.

Mint grinned, showing his snow-white teeth, "I won't go out in the future, the fool said he would go out for a while, or half a year, or a few years, and he won't be here, whoever will help me catch fish and rabbits, others will chirp Crooked, annoying!"

Pinellia's heart is put into his stomach, it's good that this person is gone, otherwise he will always be worried, if it is really like what Mint said, he will come back after three or two years, many things will be gone. just changed.

She doesn't want to be harsh anymore, she doesn't have the right to accuse other people's lives at will, Ban Xia is just worried that the mint is not serious, and it will affect herself in the end, but as far as she said, this is just a kind of playmate in her teenage years, even if It's a bit shocking in this era, but it's not completely unacceptable.

Perhaps it should be changed, after three years, mint will transform itself?

Just go with the flow.

Ban Xia smiled and said: "Well, it's good that you know the severity."

Mint was obviously provoked, and the two chattered a lot.

When Mrs. Li got up the next day to wake up the two daughters, there was only Gu Ya'er lying on the bed, and she woke up and asked.

Gu Ya'er was still in a daze, "Sister... let me go to the latrine first, and she will go after she comes back..."

Suddenly sat up with a thud, and was about to jump out of bed: "Sister, won't she fall into the toilet?!"
