i was my mistake

"No, as long as you have the courage to admit your mistakes, God will still love you." At this time, Zhao Jinyu was like a real nun, saying devoutly, drew a cross on his chest, and stretched out his hand to touch it gently. Touching his head, she turned to look at another boy, "Look, he has already apologized to you."

"Um……"

"So this matter is over like this? Let's be good friends in the future."

"it is good……"

"You too, you can't always be so malicious to others."

"...Understood." The tall boy lowered his head and asked cautiously, "Sister Angel won't leave, will she? Will she be there when she sleeps at night?"

"Yes, I will be here."

"Really?"

"real."

……

34. Church in Spring

As a nun, Zhao Jinyu still has a lot of things to do today. Ye Chen felt very fresh about these things, so he went to join in the fun.

Probably mainly in front of the children, it made her feel like a teacher.

Obviously he is only at that level, but he is a good teacher.

But Wan Qing didn't follow them, but walked into the back garden of the church on her own.

Different from the last time winter came, this place is no longer bare, but full of all kinds of delicate green plants. A few small white flowers are dotted among the neatly trimmed bushes. She is sitting in the garden. Under the swing, it swayed gently.

There are also a few vines climbing on the swing, and the emerald green leaves are so tender that they seem to be able to drip water. Even though they know that they are not edible, they can't help but think about what it tastes like to take a bite.

Under an apple tree not far away, a clean orange cat is licking its fur leisurely, and another white long-haired cat walks into the bright spring, walking steadily like the king here. patrolling his territory.

Wan Qing likes the feeling of time slowing down.

Everything in the future world is too fast.

The changes are fast and the pace is fast. Everyone is pushed by life and forced to run forward. It seems that as long as they stop, they will be left far behind by society.

There are lots and lots of time to waste, and that's the best thing in the world.

If she could, she could even just sit here, from morning to noon, and from noon to sunset.

Just watch it all day without getting tired.

The gentle spring breeze brushed her cheeks slightly, and those emerald green eyes narrowed slightly, as if putting two beautiful gemstones into a box, and the brilliance contained in them was restrained a lot.

But the little brilliance that was revealed made people feel even more beautiful.

"Wan Qing! You are here, it's time to eat!" Ye Chen stood in the distance and shouted loudly, "Eat——eat——!"

"Come on, you've ruined the atmosphere by yelling in such a beautiful environment." Wan Qing lazily stood up and walked towards her, leaving only the swing behind her still gently in the wind. shake.

Today is not Sunday, nor is it a special day, so there is no communion, but there is still a normal lunch.

It was the same restaurant last time, children and adults lined up to eat together, and everyone held a big porcelain bowl in their hands.

When Wan Qing and the others came over, Zhao Jinyu sent one to each of them.

"What are you eating this time?" Wan Qing looked at the lunch calls from the people around her, and asked suspiciously, "It looks like soup, but I can't see what's inside."

"It's rice cake soup."

"New Year Cake Soup?" The name sounds sticky.

"Yes, it is cooked with rice cakes, and all the ingredients are leftovers."

"The rice cake head?"

"It's the broken rice cakes, or some of them are broken, and the small part of rice cakes left after cutting off." Zhao Jinyu pursed his lips and smiled, "There are also leftovers of ham, broken tofu, and fried vegetables with leftovers. Balls and the like."

"I thought it would be as luxurious every time as last time."

"Of course not to that extent. These ingredients were also donated by nearby villagers."

"Donate these scraps..."

"That's not true. In fact, the church took the initiative to ask for these scraps to reduce waste. At the same time, this feeling of poverty will also strengthen people's faith."

"Poverty?" Wan Qing didn't feel that way at all.

For others, this may be a sweet meal for reminiscing bitterness, but for her, it is a delicious lunch.

Although they are all leftovers, there are tofu and minced ham, no matter how you think about it, the taste is not too bad.

At her poorest, it would have been a sumptuous meal.

The nun who served the meal filled a bowl for everyone, and the soup was almost full from the side of the bowl, so that the short distance to the seat could only be held in both hands, carefully grinding the bowl.

Some people strode forward, and of course it was inevitable that soup would flow out of the bowl and fall to the ground.

This made the ground even more slippery. A little girl stepped on the soup and couldn't stand still for a while. Her butt hit the ground hard, and the bowl flew out, making soup and food all over the floor.

"Woo—ah—" the little girl burst into tears, and the adults next to her quickly comforted her.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll have another bowl later."

"Clothes, dirty... woo..."

"It's okay, it's okay, wipe it with a rag first, and then wash it when you go back."

"It's okay, don't cry, don't cry."

Zhao Jinyu came over with a broom and swept the food on the ground. Ye Chen, the sanitation committee member, saw it and subconsciously brought the mop over. Very tacit understanding.

Wan Qing didn't care about these things at all, she sat down on her own, took a big mouthful of soup first, and after making sure that the soup in the bowl wouldn't fill up easily, she began to eat slowly.

The shapes of rice cake heads are very irregular, some are long, some are short, some are square, and some are round.

But for some reason, it seemed to taste better than ordinary rice cakes. She also found some minced ham in it, and immediately felt extremely happy.

When people indulge themselves, they will feel happy, but if the indulgence lasts for a long time, it will become more and more difficult to obtain happiness.

A threshold must be reached.

So the more indulgent people are, the more they like to pursue excitement, but after the stimulation is over, they will feel more empty.

So Wan Qing has a habit of deliberately controlling herself and not indulging herself, or in other words, seldom completely indulging herself.

Just like eating, sometimes she even deliberately eats more bitterly, so that she can cherish every morsel of food more, just like a bowl of clear water noodles, as long as a little minced meat is sprinkled, it can make people feel happy, but if the meat is too much If there are too many, that kind of happiness will attenuate instead.

Sometimes, it is necessary to be a little less, a little more simple, to have a real sense of being alive, and to feel the beauty that exists in every inch of life.

The rice cake soup was delicious, and she didn't have any left, even the soup.

Ye Chen was probably a little tired after helping all morning today, so he also ate all of it without any waste.

As soon as the lunch time passed, the restaurant became deserted again. Many believers who had prayed in the church all morning had to go home.

——After all, I still have my own things to do, so it's impossible to stay here all day.

But most of the children didn't leave. The children in the nearby area seem to be used to playing here all day on weekends.

The adults who are busy with work are also very relieved. At this time, the church is like a free nursery, taking care of these children whose parents have no time to accompany them.

It is very important to have adults watching, children don't care about the importance, if you really let them play by themselves, there will always be something dangerous.

In this age when urbanization was not yet high, many children drowned, fell to their deaths from hillsides, and even fought with others and were beaten to death every year during vacations.

The existence of the church is of course for the purpose of preaching, but it is undeniable that they do teach children the principles and morals of life.

Use God to suppress the evil in people's hearts, and use God to awaken the good in people's hearts.

Religion is not necessarily useless.

Of course, Wan Qing still has no interest in believing in an illusory existence.

In contrast, things like science give people a more down-to-earth feeling.

"Huh, it's really comfortable to eat hot food." Ye Chen walked out of the restaurant, stretched comfortably, and tilted his head to look at the girl with green eyes beside him, "Wan Qing, do you want to take care of the baby with us?" ?”

"I never expected that you would have the potential to be a kindergarten teacher."

"Actually, children are quite interesting, especially when mediating their conflicts, it is very fulfilling."

"Forget it, a group of children are messy and noisy, I'm afraid they will give me a headache." Wan Qing doesn't like children, "I might as well go on a swing."

"You are a child, you still play on a swing..."

"Why, my lord can't play on the swing?"

"Be more mature!"

"It's weird for you to tell me this kind of thing, like a three-year-old kid telling his father to let him grow up."

"I'm not a three-year-old!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I didn't say you were, why are you so anxious?" Wan Qing has a lot of experience in 'interacting' with netizens, and it's really easy to use it to deal with Ye Chen, even if she doesn't swear, just come A few yin and yang strange words can make her anxious.

"Really, you... are you just in a daze? It's rare to come to the church to play, of course you have to participate, and you also eat lunch for free, so it's not good to eat, drink, and do nothing?"

"It's okay, as long as I have a thick skin, I won't feel embarrassed."

"The laser cannon fired by the alien spaceship can't even pierce your face..." Ye Chen curled his lips.

"Actually, there is nothing to be busy in the afternoon. The children are taken care of by other nuns. They are already free in the afternoon and don't need our help."

"Eh?"

"Would you like to go shopping nearby?" Zhao Jinyu suggested.

"Nearby? Is there anything to do?"

"There is a small mountain nearby. That mountain was used for positional warfare before, and the trenches and everything are still there."

"The position during the war!" Ye Chen suddenly became excited, interested in war-related things, probably a boy's nature-even though Ye Chen is no longer a boy, "I have never seen it with my own eyes. What is it like!"

"Yeah, so why don't you go and have a look? I've only been there once."

"Look! Wanqing, hurry up, let's go together!"

"Can I not go?"

"No!" Ye Chen puffed up his cheeks angrily, "You always want to act alone, so you can't stay by my side!"

"Are you brown sugar, so clingy..." Wan Qing laughed jokingly, then nodded helplessly, "Okay, then I'll go together too, how far?"

"Not far, just around here."

……

========

Happy New Year, don't forget the monthly pass and long comment.

35. The blood-stained land

The location of the church is the edge of the village—the village is on the right, the church is on the left, and the mountain that Zhao Jinyu mentioned is further to the left of the church.

Stepping on the concrete path full of cracks, the soles of the shoes rubbed against the anti-slip texture, and the three of them walked all the way to the short mountain not far away.

The oncoming breeze has depressed the green plants in the farmland, and the large expanses seem to be rapeseed that have just been planted for a long time.

A big yellow dog was walking far away on the edge of the field. When he saw someone walking towards him behind him, he quickened his pace and disappeared into the low bushes on the side of the mountain.

Such natural features are hard to see in the future H city.

The scope of the city is getting bigger and bigger, and the edge of the city is getting farther and farther.

If you want to go to the real country, it will take longer.

When living in the city, occasionally I even feel that nature is far away from me, as far away as the scenery I have seen in my previous life.

Wan Qing leaned back slightly, enjoying the feeling of walking in the afternoon.

A few pure white paper-like butterflies are dancing in the sun. In the stream in the distance lies a big black buffalo. A tit sits on its back and looks up at the fluttering butterfly. , like a harmonious picture scroll that only appears in fairy tales.

There is a class in elementary school called Man and Nature.
