To Travel by the Edge of a Creek

Chapter 16 Chapter 16

In the early morning, Liang Jia heard the sound of pots and spoons downstairs and opened his eyes.

The boy sleeping opposite him also opened his eyes with fluttering eyelashes.

"Hey, are you awake?" Liang Jia lay on the bed and looked at him with crooked eyes.

"Huh?" Yan Ran was startled and moved a little to the side of the bed.

"Breakfast is probably ready soon, get up." Liang Jiaqi was sat up

"Well, good." Yan Ran nodded and lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

After the two of them washed up, they went downstairs.

Liang's father was sitting on the sofa watching the morning news, and Liang's mother was entering the room with soup.

"Are you awake? I was about to go upstairs to ask you to eat." Sun Qing put down the soup and said with a smile.

Yan Ran nodded and smiled.

The breakfast was lighter. Sun Qing fried a water spinach, a tomato scrambled egg, and cooked some white rice porridge.

"Eat first, I'll wake Liang Qian up." Sun Qing said as she walked towards her little daughter's room.

"Eat, don't worry about them," Liang Yueting persuaded seeing Yan Ran not moving his chopsticks.

"It's okay, let's eat," Liang Jia handed him a steamed bun

Yan Ran took the steamed buns and picked up chopsticks to eat.

After a while, Sun Qing dragged Liang Qian out of the room.

"I don't want to go to the field, I want to sleep." Liang Qian pouted and said unhappy.

"If you don't go to the field, we will leave soon, and you will be alone at home. Are you afraid?" Sun Qing threatened her.

"Okay then." Liang Qian really didn't have the guts to stay at home alone.

"Of course, is brother going too?" Liang Qian asked her mother while sitting on the stool.

"Of course you haven't done any farm work, have you? Would you like to go to the field with us today to see how to make shavings?" At the dinner table, Sun Qing invited with a smile.

"Okay, I haven't seen peanuts growing in the field since I was a child," Yan Ran also agreed with a smile.

"Hey, the education in our country has taught children to be stupid, so that students can't tell the difference between grains and grains. If you want me to say, you should let students experience farm work..." Liang Yueting criticized the exam-oriented education in a serious tone.

Liang Jiayan could only laugh along with Liang's father's embarrassing political opinions, and did not express any opinions.

Sun Qing had an expression of admiration for her husband, she listened seriously, and echoed something from time to time.

Liang Jia is quite helpless because he is used to it.

Yan Ran saw that the husband and wife were full of love and smiled, and the smile was to feel the joy of love from the heart, after all, this would never be seen in their home.

His father and his mother plotted against each other until they died, they pinched each other when they met, money, money, money, the topic can never be separated from money, his uncle and his father fell apart because of money, his uncle and his mother fell apart It's also because of money, not to mention right or wrong, no one is a good person anyway.

People in their family have no sincerity towards anyone, and they are cruel enough to their own parents. When the parents die, they want their son to stay with them for a few days, but the son just let go and refuses, a bunch of white-eyed wolves.

Yan Ran despises his relatives, he usually sees them if he can, ignores them if he can, and stays away from them.

Can you stop being like them?

He hated his family members, and his family members didn't like him either. They privately commented that he was a fool in school and didn't even understand the basics of the world.

He found it ridiculous that an unkind family needed sophistication.

The meal ended with ease and joy.

After the meal, Sun Qing found some old clothes for the two children to change into.

"Go to the field and wear clothes for working in the field. Your good clothes will be ruined by the field." Sun Qing found a set of loose clothes for each of them.

The clothes are Liang Jia's old clothes, which can be worn by both of them.

One of them went to the room and the other went to the bathroom to change their clothes.

Seeing their appearance, Sun Qing couldn't help laughing, why are both boys so shy.

She didn't stay upstairs, there were still things waiting for her to deal with in the yard.

The teenagers who changed into tattered clothes lost their brilliance, and their good-looking faces and perfectly proportioned figures couldn't save their rustic looks.

Yan Ran wore a half-worn red sweater on his upper body, and a pair of green and white fat pants on his lower body, he looked like a vulgar flower

Liang Jia's body was not much better, she looked like an old man in the field in her gray clothes.

"Hahahahaha!" The two looked at each other and laughed.

"nice"

"You look better"

The two flattered each other, super super against their will.

"Auntie said this is your old clothes, are you sure it's not the style of the last century?" Yan Ran asked while pulling his clothes and pants.

"This is my junior high school clothes. I was not particular about it when I was young, so I would wear whatever my mother bought." Liang Jia explained that he was also very wronged.

Since he went to high school, he rarely went back to his hometown, so almost all the clothes he could find in his hometown were from junior high school, it looks really rustic now!

"Well, at the same table, I think you have to take off your watch, and if you go to the field in a while, it will be full of dirt for you." Liang Jia reminded him when he saw the watch on his tablemate's wrist, and he knew the value of the watch just by looking at it. Not cheap.

Yan Ran was smiling, and his heart sank when he heard Liang Jia ask him to take off his watch.

He didn't want Liang Jia to see anything strange about him, so he pretended to take off the watch naturally, but the movements of his hands were cautious.

He took it off and held it in his right hand, his left hand was slightly behind his back, and he kept pulling down.

The sleeves seemed to be covering something.

"I'll put it in the room for you." Liang Jia took the watch in his hand and went to the bedroom.

"Brother", at this moment, Liang Qian came up bouncing up with a ribbon.

"What are you doing?" Liang Jia asked when he came out to see his sister reaching out and handing him a ribbon.

"I want a bow tie, tie it on my head, my mother won't make it for me." Liang Qian snorted.

"It's so ugly, don't tie it up." Liang Jia couldn't understand the child's aesthetics. How nice is it to be clean? It must be tied into colorful ones.

"Where is it ugly? Why don't you tie it up for me, brother?" The child acted like a baby while pulling his off-white clothes.

"If you say you won't tie it up, you won't tie it up." Liang Jia wanted to tease her.

"I..." Yan Ran couldn't see the child acting like a baby and blurted out the word "I", he wanted to help Liang Qian tie her hair.

"Hmph, I'll ask Brother Ran to tie me up." Liang Qian raised her head arrogantly and went to look for Yan Ran.

Yan Ran bent over to tie her hair, and when he tied it, he also paid attention to whether the clothes on his left wrist were pulled down.

Liang Jia stood aside and held ribbons for them. Seeing Yan Ran's deliberately concealed movements, he was puzzled. After observing carefully for a while, he discovered the clues, but he didn't expose them.

"Okay." Yan Ran braided a colored braid for the child.

Liang Jia still had two wide and long colored ribbons left in his hand, so he took out one and tied it to Liang Qian's hand, wrapped it around a few times and tied it into a bow.

"Come on, I'll tie one for you too," Liang Jia said to Yan Ran with a smile.

"Ah, no need." Yan Ran took a step back and put his hands behind his back.

"Come on, come on, Brother Ranran" Liang Qian booed from the side.

Liang Jia tied it on his left wrist. He moved gently, winding it round and round, and finally tied a small bow on the front wrist, "Okay", Liang Jia said with a smile.
