Ye Cheng

After the final exam, Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan went to the Eighteen Ridges again, as before, first to the village of Ah Qing’s mother, then to Liu Xiaoyu’s village, and then to Dawan with Liu Xiaoyu’s man Chen Dehai. Li Chen Dehai's sugar packets are especially good, and Ye Cheng's shoe mending business is also quite good.

When they came down from Shiba Ridge, Cai Jinzhi happened to bring Ye Ping home. Ye Cheng looked at his sister and felt that she looked dirtier than before, with a dusty patch on her forehead. Gauze, it may be that the stitches have not been removed yet.

"Pingping, call me brother." Cai Jinzhi took Ye Ping's hand and led her into Ye Cheng's yard.

"Brother." Ye Ping grinned, she was missing two front teeth, one had grown halfway, and the other had just sprouted, no matter how Ye Cheng looked at her, she thought she was a bit silly, so she couldn't help but Laughed.

"Your sister called you, why shouldn't you, why are you smirking?" Cai Jinzhi urged, the two siblings hadn't been together since childhood, and she was mainly worried that they wouldn't kiss.

"Oh, do you want a candy bag?" Ye Cheng took out a candy bag from a plastic bag and handed it to Ye Ping.

"Eat." Ye Ping was not at all afraid of strangers, she reached out and took it and began to chew.

"How about it, are the sugar buns your brother bought delicious?" Cai Jinzhi asked on the sidelines.

"It's delicious." Ye Ping replied with her mouth full and lisp.

"Then you will live with your brother from now on, okay?"

"Okay." Ye Ping was really easy to talk to, not at all timid and clingy like other little girls.

That afternoon, Cai Jinzhi packed a room for Ye Ping and came out. It was just across from Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan. It was a small room. It was said that Ye Ping was not afraid to sleep alone.After Ye Qiulan's husband fell ill, she had no time to take care of her. She stayed at home alone during the day, and sometimes went to the neighbors to play. Tan Xiaosong would come back very late at night, so she slept alone.

Ye Ping doesn't lack clothes. Ye Qiulan didn't buy less for her in the past, and it's convenient to live on the street. When she sees beautiful little clothes, she takes one home with her, but they are quite dirty.Ye Qiulan has no time to take care of him recently, and Tan Xiaosong probably doesn't know how to wash clothes. Both of them wear this one and that one. After winter, they wear autumn clothes. After autumn, they wear summer clothes. Turned them all out and wore them again.

Cai Jinzhi washed Ye Ping's clothes, spring, summer, autumn and winter together. Ye Ping also took off the clothes and washed them. She had no clothes to change, so she put on her brother's clothes first. Those dirty clothes, after washing The entire yard of Ye Cheng's house was hung.

After dinner in the evening, Cai Jinzhi took a deck of poker and brought a few children to play poker together. On Ye Cheng's bed, Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan played against each other, and Cai Jinzhi and Ye Ping played against each other. A few of them also had a good time. After Cai Jinzhi went back to sleep, Ye Ping, Ye Cheng and Lu Mingyuan continued to play until everyone started to yawn, and then reluctantly put away the poker.

"Brother, can I sleep here today?" Ye Ping wiped her eyes, and lay still under Ye Cheng's bed.

"No." Before Ye Cheng could say anything, Lu Mingyuan disagreed.

"Why?" Ye Ping really didn't want to leave, this bed was so warm, but it was so cold outside.

"Pingping, you've grown up, you need to sleep by yourself." Since Lu Mingyuan disagreed, Ye Cheng had no choice but to think of a reason.

"But he's older than me, and he still sleeps with you every day." Ye Ping started to hold Lu Mingyuan back.

"Didn't you always sleep alone before?" Lu Mingyuan snorted.

"It's so dark here. When I was at my aunt's house, there were people next door. They lit the lamp and talked." Ye Ping muttered, but she didn't want to leave anyway.

"How can a man and a woman sleep together?" Lu Mingyuan yelled.

"My aunt and uncle sleep together." Ye Ping disagreed.

"Are you an idiot? Do you understand that they are husband and wife? Are you going to marry me as a wife in the future?" Lu Mingyuan jumped out of the bed at once.

Ye Ping looked at Lu Mingyuan again. The guy's face was blown black and red by the mountain wind, and his skin was also peeling. His nose was also red, and his face was grinning... Finally, it was bulging. Courageously crawled out of the warm blanket, and went back to his room shaking his small body.

"What do you mean?" Lu Mingyuan murmured and lay back in bed again.

"I think you're ugly." Ye Cheng smiled and turned on the light.

Lu Mingyuan moaned and whimpered, obviously very upset, but no matter what, he was still satisfied with the result, and within 5 minutes of being satisfied, Ye Ping's wailing came again.

"Wow! Brother... Come here..." His voice was trembling, and it seemed that he was really scared. When Ye Cheng heard her shout, he got out of the bed as soon as he turned over, and went outside in his long johns. Lu Mingyuan ran away, although he was not happy, but followed.

"What's wrong..." When Ye Cheng and the others rushed over, they saw Ye Ping squatting at the door of the toilet room. Ye Ping probably wanted to go to the toilet. The toilet was not in the room, but in another room.

"Old...mouse..." Ye Ping twitched in fright.

"Where is it?" Ye Cheng pulled up the lamp casually. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. The mice in the village are very smart. Usually, they can only hear the sound of their activities occasionally, and basically they can't see their real bodies. Why today? Just let Ye Ping run into her?

"There...there..." Ye Ping raised her hand and pointed to a corner, and then she took a look along the way, but she was stunned for a moment. What kind of mouse was there, it was clearly a shoe.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Ye Cheng smiled and picked up the shoes and put them on a wooden shelf next to him. Lu Mingyuan pouted, turned his head and went back to his room.

"I don't know where the light cord is." Ye Ping had just arrived at this house, and many things were indeed unfamiliar.

"It's all right." Ye Cheng let his sister go in to have a pee, and waited outside the door. After Ye Ping came out, he sent her back to the room, helped her turn on the light in the room, and then went back to his room. .

As soon as Ye Cheng arrived on the bed, Lu Mingyuan pestered him: "Hey, is it cold?"

"A little bit." Ye Cheng turned on the light, tucked in the quilt, and shrank into the bed.

"Women are troublesome, even a shoe can scare you like that." Lu Mingyuan felt deeply proud of being a boy.

"It's not troublesome, Ye Ping is quite obedient." Ye Cheng felt that his sister was not troublesome at all, and she was better than other girls in everything.

"Hmph." Lu Mingyuan turned over and ignored Ye Cheng.

"Don't be like this, Ye Ping is really good." Ye Cheng pulled Lu Mingyuan's arm, hoping that he could accept his sister.

"..." Lu Mingyuan remained silent, feeling that his brothers and sisters were just different, they hadn't been together before, they just came here, Ye Cheng was like this, he felt that his position in this small courtyard was beginning to be shaken.

Sure enough, it happened the next day.When the three of them had breakfast together in the morning, Ye Ping finished her two candy bags in two bites. If she didn't eat enough, she let her brother ask for it. She is one.

"How can you do this? Each person can only eat two!" Lu Mingyuan was in a hurry, why should he give Ye Cheng's sugar bag to her, why?

"My brother let me eat." Ye Ping replied with her neck upturned. When she lived at her aunt's house, she also had a brother above her. Basically, all brothers in the world love their sisters, including Tan Xiaosong and Ye Cheng.

"Ye Cheng!" Lu Mingyuan became angry!

"It's okay, I'm full." Ye Cheng doesn't know why Lu Mingyuan is so angry, isn't it just a sugar bag, he and Lu Mingyuan don't usually distinguish so clearly.

"Hmph, eat it, I won't!" Lu Mingyuan threw the sugar bag on the table, and then pushed the bicycle out.

"Stingy ghost!" Ye Ping scolded Lu Mingyuan in a low voice while nibbling on the sugar bun.

"Pingping, grandma will come over later, you stay in the house, if you are hungry, go to the shop to buy something to eat, okay?" Ye Cheng said and stuffed Ye Ping with a piece. Ye Ping nodded and accepted the money, and he hurried out to chase Lu Mingyuan.

Seeing that her brother and Lu Mingyuan had left, Ye Ping was not in a hurry to stay alone in the house, anyway, she spent a lot of time alone.The candy bag that Ye Cheng gave her just now has also been eaten. Her stomach is quite full, but her mouth is still very hungry. Seeing that Lu Mingyuan hasn't finished eating all the candy bags, one is in a bowl, and half of it was just thrown away by him. On the table, she first took out the one in the bowl and ate a couple of mouthfuls, then saw Huizi spinning under the table, broke off a small piece and threw it on the ground: "Huizi, you also like sugar buns, don't you? "

Huizi really likes to eat, a small bag of sugar, it took two bites in its mouth, and then swallowed it, its head was raised high, and its eyes were still fixed on the piece in Ye Ping's hand, so Ye Ping He broke off another piece of it, just like this, you took one bite at a time, and after a while, even the half that Lu Mingyuan just threw on the table was eaten.

When Ye Cheng reached the entrance of the village, he caught up with Lu Mingyuan. Fortunately, he didn't run on a bicycle, otherwise Ye Cheng would have to walk to the town today.

"What's wrong with you?" Ye Cheng took the bicycle from Lu Mingyuan, and when Lu Mingyuan sat in the back, he rode onto the road.

Lu Mingyuan is still very angry at the moment, he doesn't look like talking to the guy in front of him who only has his sister in his eyes, isn't he just a girl with no front teeth?

This entire morning, Lu Mingyuan ignored Ye Cheng. There were a lot of people in the town these two days, and their business was very good. When he was busy, he couldn't care less about it. However, he didn't eat much in the morning, and his stomach was full in the morning. He was so hungry that he screamed, and when he thought of the sugar buns he left on the dining table, he became even more angry. If that stinky girl dared to eat his sugar buns!

The author has something to say: Lu Mingyuan's parents won't come here for the time being, and the next three children will live together for a long time. As for why they haven't been found for so long, the newspaper will explain in the future.
