Rebirth Red Mansion Planting Farms

Because it was the first time for Qiaojie to travel far away, and the people serving her were not around, she was fresh and curious. When she looked up, she saw wild flowers filling the path and miscellaneous trees covering the door.The mountains on the far shore reflect the water, and wheat and sunflowers are planted in flat borders.Another way: several layers of thatched huts are covered with greenery, and the sparse fences are all decorated with powder.There are clusters of peaches and plums, and the branches of each tree are full of spring;The bottom of the tree is still wet with cooking smoke, and the fields and roads are full.The little dog barks at the chaimen, and the perched birds sing at the ancient trees.The end is a pastoral scene.

Seeing the colorful ducks swimming in the river for a while, Sister Qiao couldn't help but grabbed Qing'er's sleeve and said bluntly: "Look, look, whose family raised this, it looks so handsome. "

Qing'er covered her mouth with a smile, pointed at the duck and said, "That's not raised, it's a duck in the wild. They come out when the water warms up in spring, and they usually sleep in the reed marshes."

Sister Qiao made a long cry when she heard the words, she suddenly felt as if she had come out of a cage, the world suddenly opened up, and said to Qing'er for a moment: "It can be seen that the Prophet of Plumbing Duck in the Spring River really has his origin."

Qing'er is not very literate, so she didn't know what she was reading, but when she understood it, she smiled and said: "What you said is really nice. If grandma knows that I brought you home, maybe she will be so happy Well, even my father and mother will be surprised when they see you. Oh, and my elder brother who looks like a monkey head, grandma said that you met when you were young, but I don’t know if you still remember Remember him, he is at home now."

Qiaojie thought about it for a while, but there was a vague shadow in her impression, but she couldn't see it clearly, so she said perfunctorily: "I probably remember, where is your home, why can't I see it?"

Qing'er raised her hand, pointed to the front and said, "Here, that's the second house over there." Sister Qiao unconsciously looked along her fingertips, and saw that there were two nails nailed on the gate of a house in that group of people. There is a door knocker with a gold-plated animal head, and there is something sparsely planted on the ground in front of the door, which is what Qing'er said.

The two of them were still talking, when a farmer's house by the road opened the door, and the woman inside came out to call for chickens. Seeing Sister Qing'er Qiao, she unconsciously wiped her hands on the front of her clothes and said with a smile: "Qing'er Girl, who are you bringing back? I heard that your grandma was sick and rested in bed for a long time, is she okay now?"

Qing'er was startled suddenly, and hurriedly asked the old woman, "Grandma Li, what's wrong with my grandma?"

The mother-in-law said with an ouch: "Don't you know about it? Go home and have a look. I heard that you have been bedridden for several days."

Qing'er couldn't help feeling flustered in her heart, she turned her head and glanced at Qiao Jie to regain her senses, quickly took Qiao Jie's hand and said: "Let's go quickly, go home to see grandma." Qiao Jie was pulled back by her, I have never been so busy before, and my panic-stricken intuition followed Qing'er along the bumpy road.The woman chased after him for a while, and then waved her hands to persuade: "My little ancestor, slow down, be careful not to break the skin."

Qing'er groaned crisply, but didn't dare to stop, and went straight to the ground three or five times, before running to the door of the animal head pointed at just now, patted the door knocker and shouted: "Mother, mother, grandma, grandma, I'm back, open the door for me."

There was silence for a while, and after a while, I heard someone calling from the door: "Qing'er, is that you? You are not staying in the city, who sent you home?"

Qing'er heard Wang Liu's voice, and hurriedly said: "Mother, don't ask too many questions, let's talk after opening the door."

Mrs. Wang and Liu hurriedly took two steps to open the door. Sister Qiao took a closer look, and saw a tall and thin woman, wearing a white thread blouse that was probably new, with a section of peach red skirt exposed underneath. Wearing a blue satin cotton bijia, she is very kind.When the lady opened the door, she saw Qiao'er standing next to Qing'er, she was wearing the clothes Qing'er usually wears at home, a snow-white tunic inside, a green silk tunic on the outside, and a double-ringed bun. He is about the same age as Qing'er, but he has something to say about his appearance.The way is: Hibiscus jade face, skin made of ice and snow, born in a graceful age and hairpin, curling up and leaning on the door to be independent.

Wang Liushi only suspected that it was a good-natured appearance, so before Qing'er could open her mouth, she asked, "Who did you come home with? Why don't you live in the mansion over there?"

Qing'er didn't have time to answer, and dragged Qiaojie into the door, then turned around and closed the door to Wang Liu and said, "Don't be fooled by my mother, this lady is the one that grandma often said she gave her name." Miss Qiao, because she has a lot of things at home, I thought about going out to rest for a few days, so I brought the girl to live with us." As he spoke, he gently pulled Miss Qiao forward, and brought her directly to Mrs. Wang and Liu.

When Wang Liushi heard that Miss Hou Men had come to her house, she was really shocked for a long time and did not dare to move. She stared blankly at Miss Qiao for a long time. I want to kowtow down, and said in my mouth: "Hi, girl, I am ignorant, and I don't know Mount Tai."

Scared so much that Qiao'er squatted down and supported her, and said anxiously: "Auntie can't do it, I'm just feeling sorry for coming to your house to disturb my life, if you do this again, you will kill me."

The Wang Liushi who was talking about it laughed sarcastically, stood up straight and checked Qiaojie again and again, then took her hand and rubbed it, and said to Qing'er: "Look at Miss Qiao, she is really a master." She comes from a big family, and the words she speaks are different from others, and I can't blame people for liking her. But why are you the only ones here, who sent you here?"

Sister Qiao laughed and said, "My family brought them here. I thought they were too wordy, so I didn't let them come over to bother my aunt. I let them go back at the village. I'm afraid they're going to the city now."

Mrs. Wang and Liu felt sorry when she heard it, "Why don't you ask me to go home and sit down? Although we are a poor family here, we also know the reason why people come here to offer tea and water. How dare you be a girl?" Are you afraid that we will not entertain you well? We just stay at home all day long and don’t see them, why don’t you keep the girls, Qing’er?”

Qing'er looked as if she was blaming herself, and she couldn't help but excuse herself: "The girl said she didn't need my sisters to take care of her, and because I watched it for a few days and figured out a lot of reasons for taking care of her, the sisters left with peace of mind. Besides Well, the girl is still at our house now, if Mother really wants to entertain them, it won't be too late when they come to pick her up."

Wang Liushi nodded while listening and said: "What you said is also reasonable. Since it is rest, the girl should rest in the room. Because I don't know that the girl is coming, at least let us tidy up. I'm afraid that it's very messy to enter the house, and I won't catch the girl's eyes. It's hard to come here, we can't treat the girl badly."

When Qiaojie heard it, before she could finish speaking, she quickly waved her hand and said, "Auntie is worrying too much, she is so delicate. Let me live as you do, just treat me as Qing'er. Also, when we came, we heard people say that grandma was sick, is she better now?"

Qing'er also said: "That's right. Grandma Li said earlier that my grandma has been ill for several days. I was still wondering why I haven't seen you to pick me up after so long. There is such a reason."

Wang Liu said: "Look, I'm confused. Grandma didn't know what was on her mind a few days ago. She was going to the temple to fulfill her wish. It was raining when she came, so she fell down accidentally and twisted her waist. , thanks to your brother Zhuzi who carried it back. I just took a break, and the girl came, so come with me to see grandma, she is thinking about you and your mother a lot."

Sister Qiao nodded and said nothing, thinking that Grandma Liu must have listened to her mother's words to fulfill her wish, which caused her illness.Unexpectedly, the impoverished family would be so loyal, even more loving and righteous than the people in Rongguo Mansion, so I couldn't help but secretly sigh.He also thought that grandma Liu and Wang Liushi might not know the news that Sister Feng had gone, fearing that they would lose their bearing in front of others, so they kept silent on the face, and followed Wang Liushi to grandma's house arm in arm with Qing'er.

But sister Qiao looked at it while walking, and saw another appearance.Probably because the days are easier, the yard of the Wang family is longer than the houses I saw on the way here, and a small gray shed was built on the right side of the entrance. I asked Qing'er and found out that it was a place for cooking and tea. .Not far from the ash shed, there is another peach tree, with some tender green exposed between the branches, and under the tree is a large vat that looks like it was painted with black lacquer. On one side is a square wellhead, which is also covered with a chopping board.

To the east and west of the yard are three small side rooms, one is used as a dining room, and the other two are where Qing'er and Ban'er live.There was another firewood room, the door of which was ajar, revealing the neatly piled firewood stacks inside.Facing the gate is the main room with a width of three rooms, the middle one is used as a hall, the connecting rooms extending from the left and right are the residence of the dog and his wife, and the other is the residence of Grandma Liu.

It was probably the beginning of spring. There was no tent hanging in the hall, but the door was only half-closed. Wang Liushi opened the door attentively and led Qiaojie in. Then he opened the green cloth curtain inside and called out before entering the door: "Grandma Get up quickly and see who is coming."

Grandma Liu was feeling pain in her back. Not long after she lay down and closed her eyes, she heard the yelling and didn't look up, so she complained on the bed: "I usually say that you are not old-fashioned, and I think you are like him. You are just like him. , What does it look like, who else can do this? Just say that I am not good, let's take a rest early in the morning." After speaking, my mind was dizzy, and I was about to fall asleep.

Seeing that she couldn't get up, Wang Liushi looked at Qiao'er with an embarrassed smile, Qing'er looked at her and couldn't help laughing: "Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time, your old man doesn't miss me anymore?"

Grandma Liu was taken aback, and then quickly climbed up from the kang and sat up, looked up at the opening and closing of the curtain, blinked a few times, and said in disbelief: "Are you in a dream? Why did Qing'er come back?" Oh, and my Qiao girl, why did you come with me?"
