return to the garden

Zhang Xiaoli was sleeping soundly, her face was smudged with crimson.

Liao Qing looked at it for a while before calling him up.

"Huh? Brother Liao?" Zhang Xiaoli sat up.

Zhang Xiaoli's heart aches, why is he so sleepy, Brother Liao can fall asleep reading to him, does Brother Liao think he doesn't like reading!

"It's getting dark, don't sleep, if you sleep again, you won't be able to sleep at night, just as the snacks I made for you are ready, you get up and have a taste." Liao Qing gently lifted Zhang Xiaoli from the bed and wrapped her in a furry cloak.

Zhang Xiaoli's whole body was warm from sleeping, and he didn't really want to wear a cloak. Who knew that he didn't realize until he went out that he had slept for such a short time, not to mention it was getting dark, the temperature was much colder, and the cold evening wind was blowing on his body An icy, biting coolness.

Zhang Xiaoli tightened the little cloak that was draped around her body, and gave Liao Qing's thoughtful heart a little heartfelt love.

Brother Liao is the best!

Two steaming dishes were placed on the table in the yard, and after a while they were taken out, Zhang Xiaolin sat beside the table and watched eagerly.

Obviously, he is greedy for the snacks specially made for him by Brother Liao~

Zhang Xiaoli shyly emphasized the pronunciation of the word "specialized" in her heart.

"Try it and see if you like it." Liao Qing pushed the fish cake and fish ball towards Zhang Xiaoli.

As for Zhang Xiaolin, while staring at fish cakes and fish balls, he was stuffed with dog food...

Zhang Xiaoli naturally likes it, as for Liao Qing's gentle smile, Zhang Xiaoli feels that even if he takes poison, he will find it delicious.

And it's really delicious. Brother Liao is amazing. Not only can he carve but he's also good at cooking. It's super easy to go out.

"Mmm! Delicious! Brother Liao is amazing." Zhang Xiaoli smiled softly.

Zhang Xiaolin didn't see his brother "Rou Rou" smiling, his eyes were on the fish cakes and fish balls.

"Brother~Brother Liao~Can I eat too?" Zhang Xiaolin brazenly acted coquettishly at Zhang Xiaoli and Liao Qing.

Zhang Xiaoli was shocked by Zhang Xiaolin's disgust, and slapped Zhang Xiaolin's head reflexively.

"Brother, what are you doing!" Zhang Xiaolin hid.

"I just want to ask, what are you doing!" Zhang Xiaoli said softly with a smile, "The words startled me, I thought you were possessed by a ghost!"

Liao Qing saw it clearly, held back a smile and brought Zhang Xiaolin a small plate with two fish balls and a piece of fish cake.

"Like a little monkey, eat and read quickly, don't you know how to avoid arrogance and impetuosity?" Liao Qing pushed the plate in front of Zhang Xiaolin.

"Okay, Brother Liao!" Zhang Xiaolin vowed, nodding his head as if smashing garlic, looking too cute.

Liao Qing rubbed the child's head.

Uh... so nasty!He is no longer a child!

Zhang Xiaolin took the plate and hurried back to his room to eat.

The more Zhang Xiaolin ate, the more he liked it. His spicy mouth was red and he smiled sweetly at Liao Qing.

Liao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed the child's head, and accompanied Zhang Xiaoli to finish eating.

After Zhang Xiaoli finished eating, he happily ran to the kitchen to see what he was having for dinner so that he could help him make something together.

Liao Qing carved the jade piece in the dim light of the lantern, which is a simple and smart little fox hairpin.

It just so happened that Uncle Zhang came to pay his wages all day today, so Liao Qing took advantage of the opportunity and gave him a golden leaf.

"Master Liao, this?" Uncle Zhang took it hesitantly.

"Take it, it's yours if you have more." Liao Qing knew the rules of getting people to do things and giving benefits.

Uncle Zhang naturally took a long time to accept it.

"By the way, on the other side of the mountain, I don't have time to look at it, so Uncle Zhang will help me to watch it." Liao Qing turned the carving knife around.

"Okay, of course, if I see a dishonest person, the old man will definitely send him back!" Uncle Zhang assured, patting his chest.

Liao Qing smiled and nodded.

"This Zhuangzi is in a hurry. The work in Qingshan here can be completed in at most ten days. Please keep an eye on it. I would rather spend a little more money. The time must be fast." Liao Qing looked towards the kitchen.

"Don't worry, there are more than 100 of us. In ten days, we have to finish it no matter what." Uncle Zhang thought about the progress in two days.

"That's good. I'll take a look after you clear the mountain. Some trees are in the way. They should be moved or cut down." Liao Qing finally smiled gently at Uncle Zhang.

"Okay, Mr. Liao."

……

It rained in the spring at night, and when I woke up, the spring breeze was mild and refreshing.

After breakfast, it was rare for Liao Qing to go out for a walk instead of staying at home to sculpt.

The weather was cool, and Zhang Xiaoli coughed due to the wind. Liao Qing didn't take Zhang Xiaoli with him, but went out with Zhang Xiaolin behind him.

Although for Liao Qing, he had just finished breakfast and it was still very early, but the general villagers were almost busy at this time, so the only people wandering around the village like Liao Qing were some children.

Zhang Xiaolin got up early and had breakfast early. He was half-grown and hungry in the middle of the morning. He took a bag of snacks and ate them as he walked, attracting a group of children to follow him eagerly.

Liao Qing really liked seeing the child, but he didn't bring any snacks with him, and he couldn't give the child the snacks that Zhang Xiaolin was eating.

"Don't eat... go back and eat again." Liao Qing whispered into Zhang Xiaolin's ear.

Although Zhang Xiaolin didn't know why, he still obeyed Liao Qing's words habitually, and he had the paper bag of snacks in his hand.

Liao Qing pretended to shake his fan twice, with a gratified expression that a child can teach.

Who knows, but I don't know where there came a coquettish cry of nine turns and eighteen turns, so frightened that Liao Qing's fan fell to the ground.

Zhang Xiaolin trembled all over, bowed his head and picked up the fan for Liao Qing.

"Brother Liao?" Zhang Xinyue yelled even louder, causing goosebumps on Liao Qing's arms.

"Brother Liao, I don't go out on weekdays, so I ran into Brother Liao as soon as I went out, what a fate~" Zhang Xinyue smiled coquettishly, and covered half of her face with a plain white handkerchief quite pretentiously.

"Hmm..." Liao Qing smiled awkwardly, "I have other things to do, so I won't accompany you any longer. Brother Zhang, please don't be disturbed by me."

"Master Liao, is there anything else? Otherwise, I'll accompany..." Zhang Xinyue naturally accepted the quarrel.

He thought it over, he must lean on Liao Qing, not to mention, such a feat as buying a mountain and building a village made him envious, not to mention, Liao Qing was also good-looking, and he was also a scholar. There is also fame, thinking about marrying in the past, even if he is an official wife, he is very itchy.

"No need, it's inconvenient, so I won't bother you any more." Liao Qing interrupted, pulling Zhang Xiaolin away quickly.

You know, Liao Qing doesn't say anything else, after traveling so many worlds, Liao Qing is very familiar with this kind of contrived performance, and if you don't say it is delicate and contrived, this kind of people see that their purpose is not simple, so wait a little longer. After a while, drinking a cup of tea may turn into sweat medicine, and then you will be greedy...

Liao Qing just wanted to be a landlord and rich man, and live happily his daily retirement life, and he didn't want to be shunned by others.

This time, Liao Qing didn't have the mood to wander around, so he simply went back to the house and started to carve and read books.

Zhang Xinyue, who was left on the spot, was furious. To look good, he wore thin clothes that were tightly tied around his waist. If he wanted to catch up, the clothes would be inconvenient for him to run, so he could only stamp his feet on the spot, his face flushed red with anger. .

As a result, he was surrounded by a group of children with snotty noses, stretching out their hands to touch the beautiful clothes.

"Short-lived bitter gourd! Who allowed you to touch my skirt, put your dirty hands on my skirt and see if I don't tear you up!" Zhang Xinyue screamed and scolded the child who reached out to touch it.

"I'm sorry..." The children were taken aback, but fortunately they all knew that Zhang Xinyue was the elder brother of the village chief's family, so they quickly withdrew their hands.

Zhang Xinyue was angry, and angrily pushed the two children, and walked away.

……

When Liao Qing returned home, Zhang Xiaoli was still embroidering the belt for him. In fact, it was almost finished, but Zhang Xiaoli tried to handle the details better so that Liao Qing could wear it on the scene.

As soon as Liao Qing came back, Zhang Xiaoli showed Liao Qing shaking his belt.

"Brother Liao, look, how are you doing?" Zhang Xiaoli smiled and gestured with his belt.

"Very good, I like it very much." Liao Qing took the belt in his hand and carefully looked at the embroidery on the belt.

I have to say that Zhang Xiaoli can be said to be a very virtuous wife and mother. After she died, she was able to take care of everything inside and outside the house, and she was also very good at sewing.

Zhang Xiaoli blushed and continued to sit on the bench and embroider.

Liao Qing went to the room and found a picture book to read.

Zhang Xiaolin squatted next to Zhang Xiaoli's bench like a thief.

"If you have something to do, and if you have nothing to do, go to study, what's the point of leaving me here?" Zhang Xiaoli gave Zhang Xiaolin a white look.

"Uh...Brother! I have something to tell you!" Zhang Xiaolin scratched his head, and Zhang Xiaoli's inconsistency in his heart gave him a sense of Buddhism.

"Oh, then go ahead and read the book after the lecture." Zhang Xiaoli didn't care much and continued to embroider cloud patterns.

"It's about Brother Liao. Just now, Brother Liao and I went for a stroll to digest food, but guess who we met?" Zhang Xiaolin made a fool of himself.

"Who did you meet?" When Zhang Xiaoli heard about Liao Qing, he immediately put down his belt and listened carefully to Zhang Xiaolin's speech.

"You will never guess, it's Zhang Xinyue!" Zhang Xiaolin patted his thigh, and said like a storyteller, "He still calls Brother Liao "Brother Liao"!"

Zhang Xiaoli immediately lifted his spirits. Hearing Zhang Xiaolin tell the whole story, his expression became more and more unfathomable.

"Brother?" Zhang Xiaolin looked at his brother's expression after finishing speaking.

"Let's go read if you have nothing to do!" But Zhang Xiaoli regained his senses and pushed Zhang Xiaolin aside.

"Oh." Zhang Xiaolin was frightened by the speed of his brother's face-changing, and went to the study to practice calligraphy and study.

……

Zhang Xiaoli's mind was a little confused. Although Liao Qing didn't waver at all this time, he ran back quickly, but what about the future?
