Xie Ailian thought that after Wang Zhaozhao came back, they could go back to Hebian Village and stay there for half a month.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhaozhao's continuous "busy work" in the city and county made Xie Ailian lose her temper.
"Hahahaha..." Wang Sibing laughed strangely, "Mom, how is it? Is your granddaughter promising?"
"Isn't my granddaughter promising?" Xie Ailian hummed and rolled her eyes at him.
Wang Zhaozhao chuckled, "Starting tomorrow, everything will be fine."
"Tomorrow is the 20th, and your summer vacation is almost over." Xie Ailian clicked her tongue and shook her head.
He turned around and discussed with Wang Dahai that they would return to Hebian Village early tomorrow morning.
"Fourth brother, don't be lazy. Make two more trips." Before leaving, Xie Ailian said to her youngest son.
“…”Who was it that saw me lose weight and hugged me and cried some time ago?
Wang Sibing just made a gesture of invitation, asking them to leave quickly so that he could lock the door.
…
Daling Commune, Hebian Village.
The members get up at dawn, do a round of work, and go home for breakfast at nine o'clock. For the rest of the morning, everyone works more freely and casually.
In normal summer, working hours are mainly in the early morning and evening.
"Oh... Miss Zhao is back." Someone saw someone entering the village from afar and recognized that it was the old couple Wang Dahai and his wife with Wang Zhaozhao.
"Oh, it's been over a month since summer vacation. Miss Zhao is finally back?"
"Why are you being so sarcastic? Didn't the Dahai family tell you earlier? That Zhao girl is going to another province to study and participate in a competition."
"Going out of the province to study and compete, just think about it..."
"I also heard that studying is a national initiative."
“…”
Everyone started talking immediately, saying all sorts of sarcastic things, exaggerations, and so on.
But they were all in unison and were not in a hurry to go to the fields. They just stood there waiting for Wang Zhaozhao and the others to come closer.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
"It's true that it's been a while since I've been back to the village, but there's no need for so many people to greet me at the village entrance, right?"
She muttered quietly.
Xie Ailian snorted and laughed, "You're getting more and more shameless."
"As for being thick-skinned, my family has some roots in it. I have talent and room to grow."
"Where does it come from? It's something you were born with."
“…”
Wang Zhaozhao opened his mouth and then closed it again.
Humph, it’s hard for her to say. In this aspect, I am like my grandmother.
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the village entrance. Wang Zhaozhao smiled and called a few old men and women who were close to her. Then, no matter whether they were holding hands and talking to her affectionately or doing anything else, she always kept smiling. Comrade Xie Ailian would handle the rest.
It took at least a quarter of an hour before I finally stepped into their yard.
Wang Zhaozhao helped move out stools for people to sit on, and then found an opportunity to slip away.
"Sister Zhao..." Wang Zhaozhao had just wiped the inside of her bed when Wang Baojia came running to find her.
"Hey, little comrade, I haven't seen you for a while. You've grown a lot taller." Wang Zhaozhao was quite surprised when he saw the little boy in front of him.
"Hehe." Wang Baojia smiled foolishly.
He has indeed grown taller during this period, at least half a head taller.
"Where are my elder brother, second brother, Weiguo and the others?" Wang Zhaozhao looked outside and didn't see Wang Weiguo and the others, so he asked casually.
"Oh, yes! My brother and the others asked me to ask you to go to the mountain to play together. They are waiting in the pond behind the mountain." Wang Baojia remembered that he came here with a mission.
They were originally going to go up the mountain, but halfway there they found that Wang Zhaozhao and the others had returned, so they discussed and decided to ask Wang Zhaozhao to go with them.
Knowing that many people went to their house to watch the fun, they only took a picture and came back to call out Wang Zhaozhao.
Wang Baojia lost in a tricky situation.
"Oh, are you chopping wood or cutting thatch? You're not turning over sweet potato vines, are you?" If it was turning over sweet potato vines, she would have to change into long-sleeved clothes, wear a straw hat, and be fully armed.
"Neither! Let's go pick chestnuts."
"good."
Wang Zhaozhao became interested and rummaged around. After getting ready, he went to the kitchen to get an axe and slipped out with Wang Baojia.
After meeting up with Wang Xingwen and the others, we didn't waste much time and talked while climbing the mountain.
Along the way, I mainly listened to Wang Zhaozhao bragging about his training at the education base in Qing Province and his fun and competitions in Liancheng.
Wang Baojia and the others kept saying "wow" and "wow" after hearing this.
Children in mountain villages are very familiar with the surrounding mountains. They know where to pick chestnuts, just like they know where to pick bamboo shoots in the spring and which hilltops to pick wild bayberries in the summer.
"It's still a little early, and although it opened, it didn't fall." Everyone was super excited to find a chestnut tree.
Wang Xingwu got a long thin bamboo and started beating him.
Chestnuts fell down, and even if Wang Zhaozhao and the others retreated far away, they would inevitably be affected.
For a moment, all kinds of hissing and screaming sounds were heard, scaring all the birds in the woods away.
Wang Xingwen called a halt, and everyone rushed forward to pick chestnuts.
Then, there was another hissing sound. The thorns on the shell were long, hard and sharp, and they pricked the hand.
But it's not a big problem, just use two sticks as chopsticks and pick it up...
Well.
"Sister, what is that?" They saw Wang Zhaozhao take out the folded snakeskin bag that she had been holding in her hand, and then took out a pair of gloves from it.
Canvas gloves to be exact.
"These are canvas gloves. My fourth uncle gave me two dozen and we brought them back together." Wang Zhaozhao had already put on the gloves. He clapped his hands and answered seriously.
The Wang brothers: “……!”
They recognized that they were canvas gloves, but the question was, how did their sister bring them to the mountain?
"I was thinking of picking chestnuts, which just happened to be useful." Wang Zhaozhao explained with a smile, as if he could see what they were thinking.
“…”
Haha, it’s... pretty good, you’re worthy of it.
Then they discovered that it wasn't just good, it was too good.
Wang Zhaozhao smiled mysteriously, picked up her snakeskin bag and poured it out, and many canvas gloves fell to the ground.
"Wow...Sister Zhao, you brought them to us." Wang Baojia cheered, threw away the stick in his hand, and rushed to pick up the two gloves.
Wang Xingwen and his team were also quick in their movements.
Originally, they planned to take the chestnuts back with the shells and then slowly crack them. But after getting these canvas gloves, they immediately decided to smash the shells and take only the chestnuts back.
If nothing else, it’s at least easier to memorize.
If a wild chestnut tree like this is discovered, there may be more than one. Wang Zhaozhao also discovered some small chestnut trees.
"If I get a chestnut sapling and take it to the county town and plant it in the yard, I wonder if it will survive." Wang Zhaozhao suddenly had an idea.
"It's better not to do it. Even if it can be grown, what if it's a male and doesn't accept chestnuts?" Wang Baojia advised her casually.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
What you said makes so much sense that I am speechless.
