Chapter 239: The Fact That We Will Separate One Day

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said to the landlord: "Your yard is comfortable to live in, and the neighbors are all warm and welcoming people. There will definitely be good tenants who will rent the yard."

The landlord smiled proudly after hearing this: "Your master and uncle have good taste. My yard is a popular place. Everyone who has lived here says it's good."

The landlord left happily. Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan who was sitting under the eaves: "This street is an old street. When it rains heavily, the drainage ditch will be easily blocked."

Shi Zelan was surprised and asked, "Did the neighbors help clear the drain when it rained before?"

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and nodded: "They said we were just tenants, so they didn't tell us about these things."

Shi Zelan sighed: "No wonder the landlord would rather go through the trouble of renting out the yard than sell it at a high price."

As they were talking, they went into the kitchen to boil some water and cook a pot of vegetable soup.

"Sister Lan, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, shall we continue up the mountain?"

"OK.

Master said that the weather would be very hot in a month, and we should leave the capital at that time. ”

"Sister Lan, will you be reluctant to leave the people and things on this street?"

"I'm a little reluctant. I don't know what's going on with the young widow, and I haven't heard anyone mention it."

Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan in amazement: "You care about the young widow's affairs at this time?"

"I don't care about her, I only care about how things are going."

The next day, when they went out, they saw someone waiting outside the yard gate.

Xiao Yingzi came over happily and grabbed Shi Zelan's hand: "Xiao Lanzi, when the rain stops, I told you that you will definitely go up the mountain."

Shi Zelan looked at her and said, "It will be very hard to go up the mountain today. You must be prepared to endure the hardship."

"I know, you scare me with the same words every time."

Xiao Yingzi didn't take Shi Zelan's words to heart. Instead, her brother heard what Shi Zelan said, turned back to the yard and took out a small bag.

As they left the city, they saw many people seeing them off outside the city gate.

When Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan passed by, they looked carefully at the people who were leaving and the expressions on the faces of those who were seeing them off.

After they passed by, Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan, "The people who saw us off had a kind of self-satisfaction that they couldn't hide."

Shi Zelan nodded: "The old man who left has a kind of calm and relieved expression on his face.

Young people don't lose heart, they still have a chance to start over. ”

Xiao Yingzi turned her head and looked at the city gate again, and said to Shi Zelan, "They are not very sincere in seeing you off."

Shi Zelan was surprised and said, "They've already sent them out of the city, but it's still not sincere enough?"

"Of course, if we go further, there is a farewell pavilion where everyone can sit and chat.

The person who is seeing someone off can also invite the person leaving to have something to eat and then comfort each other. ”

After hearing this, Shi Zelan looked at Xiao Yingzi and said, "If the delay continues like this, won't the people seeing them off worry that they won't be able to get to the post station before dark?"

After hearing this, Shi Xiaoliu asked the young man, "When you see someone off, are there so many rules to follow?"

The four young men said, "Our family has never seen off relatives or friends leaving the capital.

I just heard from people that it should be more grand, and people should be sent off to the farewell pavilion so that everyone can say goodbye properly. ”

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances secretly. Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Sending them out of the city gate, I think it's very sincere."

The four young men looked at Shi Xiaoliu and said, "Brother Xiaoliu, when you leave, we will definitely send you off to the farewell pavilion."

"You're sending us to the farewell pavilion, and then you're not going to let us get to the inn where we're going to stay before dark?"

After hearing what Shi Xiaoliu said, the four young men looked at each other and said, "We're sending you to the city gate. Do you think we're not sincere to you?"

"No, in fact, we feel that sending it out to the street entrance is already very sincere."

After Shi Xiaoliu talked to the teenagers, he passed the message to Shi Zelan: "When we leave, we should not alarm the neighbors."

Shi Zelan agreed: "Master and Master definitely don't like to alarm too many people."

The leaves on the mountain are all green after the rain.

Xiao Yingzi was very happy when she saw it and said, "I heard that we can pick bamboo shoots. When we pick herbs, can we also pick some?"

After hearing what she said, her brother turned around and asked her, "Have you ever seen bamboo on this mountain?"

"Yes, we have come here several times, but we have never seen bamboo growing on the mountain."

This time, they did not stay at the foot of the mountain, but climbed directly up the mountain.

When they were halfway up the mountain, Shi Xiaoliu stopped and said to them, "We can pick some herbs here. Do you want to stay and pick some herbs?"

The four young men asked Shi Xiaoliu, "Brother Xiaoliu, do you have any other plans?"

"We want to go to the top of the mountain. When we came here last year, we saw tea trees on the mountain. Yesterday, we suddenly thought of picking some tea leaves and frying them ourselves."

The four young men immediately said, "We will climb up with you."

Shi Zelan asked Xiao Yingzi: "Are you tired?"

Xiao Yingzi glared at her immediately and said, "Don't think of abandoning me halfway. I want to go with you, no matter how hard I try."

When they climbed to the top of the mountain, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan naturally saw the eight tea trees that were growing very well first.

Shi Xiaoliu said to the young people: "Now is the right time to pick spring tea. A month later, the tea will become summer tea."

After Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan picked tea leaves for them to see, they both picked tea leaves with their hands.

At first, Xiao Yingzi could not match the boys' speed in picking tea, but soon her hands became much more flexible than theirs.

They were picking tea that day, so naturally they had no time to pick herbs.

In the evening, the boys and Xiao Yingzi came to watch Shi Xiaoliu frying tea leaves.

The kitchen was not big and there were many people standing, so Shi Zelan went straight out of the kitchen door.

After seeing this, Xiao Yingzi followed Shi Zelan out of the kitchen and stood in the yard. She took a deep breath.

"Xiao Lanzi, I think the tea smells really good."

Shi Zelan looked at her and laughed: "Do you wash your tea leaves before drying them?"

Xiao Yingzi nodded: "It's a pity that there is no sun for a little longer."

"You just watched the tea-making process, do you want to go in and take a look at the tea-making process?"

Xiao Yingzi thought for a moment and shook her head and said, "My brother is in the kitchen, so I won't fight with him for a seat."

Shi Zelan laughed and said, "We have to go up the mountain to pick tea leaves tomorrow. Are you still going?"

"Go, I'll be free at home, and my mother will talk to me about something."

"I think what aunt said makes sense."

"I also think what my mother said makes sense, but there won't be many opportunities to pick tea with you guys."

Shi Zelan looked at her and smiled: "This time you are not sad about the fact that we will be separated one day."
