Chapter 57
Jiang Mi held the cup lid and looked at the red beans carved on it. Her red lips curled up, and many poems about red beans flashed through her mind.
It is the red beans in "Lovesickness" that grow in the south, and in spring they sprout a few branches. I wish you would pick more, for this is the most beautiful thing to express love.
Or the exquisite dice and red beans in "Yangliuzhi", do you know how deep my love for you is?
She really wanted to know what Yang Jiahe was thinking when he carved these red beans.
She took a sip of the pear juice in the cup and found it sweeter.
Ji Yingying looked at the smile on Jiang Mi's face and felt that she was even more beautiful and dazzling, as beautiful as a painting.
But the scroll is not so spiritual and compelling.
She felt a little envious, thinking how great it would be if she didn't have such a bad past.
Jiang Mi really wanted to find Yang Jiahe, but she resisted the urge to go. Would Yang Jiahe be anxious for her to discover this cluster of red beans?
They went down the mountain and went straight back to the pig farm.
The pig farm began to finish the work, cleaning the pig pens, feeding the pigs again, and adding water.
After work, Xu Nian'er said she was leaving first. He Zhaodi pulled Jiang Mi and Ji Yingying to follow her: "Let's go see it together!"
Jiang Mi wanted to wait for Yang Jiahe, "You two go first, I'll come find you later."
He Zhaodi was afraid of losing Xu Nian'er, so she quickly pulled Ji Yingying to catch up.
Su Wenchen also left tactfully.
Jiang Mi was swinging on the swing with Xiao Bai in her arms, humming the tune of "Red Bean" quietly, looking happy. She took out a small comb from her bag and combed her hair, trying to make it as smooth as possible, and pressed down some of the broken hair that had just grown out.
I wet the handkerchief and wiped my face. There was no mirror, so the main thing was to wipe my eyes and mouth. There had to be no eye boogers and nothing around my mouth.
Finally, I couldn't help but rinse my mouth again.
She also asked Little Water to give her a little spiritual water, mixed it in a bamboo tube cup, and she drank half a cup.
She straightened her clothes again. She should wear a skirt today. It would look beautiful when she was swinging on the swing with her skirt flying.
She hummed "Red Bean" and swung on the swing, waiting for Yang Jiahe. In such anticipation, she was suddenly stunned.
She actually dressed herself up like this just to meet someone, hoping that the other person would come earlier. She felt a little confused and a little happy about this unfamiliar emotion.
Is this what love feels like?
After a while, the swing was gently pushed up.
She turned to look at the person who came.
A ray of sunlight shines in through the gaps in the leaves.
It happened to fall on Yang Jiahe, who was looking at him. There was a smile in his bright peach blossom eyes, with the corners of his eyes slightly raised, giving a hazy feeling of seduction.
With infinite charm.
Just by taking a glance, Jiang Mi's heart began to beat uncontrollably, as if she had a deer in her arms, but she couldn't bear to look away. Her breathing was a little irregular, and she was so nervous that her mind went blank.
Yang Jiahe arrived earlier. He looked at the little girl's back and listened to the tune of "Red Bean". He felt that this moment was as beautiful as a painting and did not want to break it.
If he had only suspected Jiang Mi was a time traveler before, now he was convinced. He looked down at the little girl. In such a vast sea of people, being able to meet her was the greatest blessing in his life.
Yang Jiahe walked around the swing and stood in front of Jiang Mi. He ruffled Jiang Mi's hair and called out, "Mi Mi."
The sound was so light that it could cause Jiang Mi to shiver in her ears.
Jiang Mi took a deep breath, trying to calm her pounding heart, but her heart was really disobedient.
She looked up and smiled at him, her smile pure and brilliant: "Brother Jiahe."
Yang Jiahe nodded, and the two of them just looked at each other without saying anything. After a moment, Yang Jiahe grabbed Xiaobai and put him on the ground, then picked up Jiang Mi from the swing.
Yang Jiahe coughed lightly: "Do you like cups?"
Jiang Mi stood still, a step away from each other, very close. Jiang Mi unscrewed the lid of the cup and said in a bright voice, "I like it."
After Uncle Niu cleaned up the cowshed, he went to the well to get water. When he saw the two of them, he said, "Why haven't you left yet? Go back. I'm watching here."
Yang Jiahe put the roast suckling pig in a basket and carried it, "Let's go."
Jiang Mi followed Yang Jiahe, and the two walked forward side by side. Xiaobai saw them leaving and ran over.
After leaving the yard, Jiang Mi reached out and held Yang Jiahe's hand. Yang Jiahe took a few steps forward almost instantly, and their hands separated.
The smile on Jiang Mi's face disappeared. Is this just a playful act?
She looked at Yang Jiahe and saw that he walked a little stiffly, not with his usual leisurely stroll. If she looked more closely, she could see the redness on his earlobes.
So, they were both nervous.
Yang Jiahe looked back at her. Seeing that she didn't leave, he hesitated and said, "There are people on the road. It will have a bad influence on you."
Jiang Mi blinked, looked at him with a pair of clear almond eyes, and stretched out her hand to him, "I want to hold your hand."
Yang Jiahe hesitated for a moment again.
He really didn't mean to separate their hands quickly just now. It was just a subconscious action. He walked towards Jiang Mi and reached out to hold Jiang Mi's hand.
His hands were beautiful, with distinct joints, long and large fingers that could completely wrap around her hands.
Jiang Mi's heartbeat uncontrollably quickened, and she whispered, "Why are your palms so sweaty?"
Yang Jiahe: "It's a bit hot."
Jiang Mi: "Then don't hold hands anymore?"
Yang Jiahe held Jiang Mi's hand with his backhand and said, "Your palms are cold, let them cool down for me." After holding her hand, he felt reluctant to let go and forgot all the sense of propriety.
However, the hand-holding between the two was very brief.
Not far away, two children ran over.
Yang Jiahe felt lost, his hands were empty and his heart was empty.
When the two children saw Jiang Mi and Yang Jiahe, they called out, "Brother Jiahe, Sister Mimi." Then they said to Jiang Mi, "Sister Mimi, the captain is calling you. The captain of the Cuijiazhuang Brigade is here."
Jiang Mi gave each of the two children two pieces of hard candy and asked, "Did Cuijiazhuang get the pig?"
The two children were so happy after receiving the candies that their faces turned red. They said what a great job it was! One of the children said, "The Cuijiazhuang team got two pigs. The team leader of Cuijiazhuang just came to our team to thank us and said that our team had helped them a lot."
Getting two mission pigs weighing over 100 pounds for free is a great thing.
Jiang Mi and Yang Jiahe arrived at the brigade headquarters. There were many people in the yard. When Zhou Dashan saw Jiang Mi, he smiled and said, "Mi Mi, come here quickly."
Cui Mancang, the team leader of Cuijiazhuang, stood next to him, along with an aunt, probably Cui Mancang's wife, whom he had met yesterday.
Cui Mancang said, "Mi girl, thank you for your suggestion yesterday. When we got there, the soldiers were still busy transporting the pigs, so we quickly followed them up the mountain to help. There were still about ten pigs left, and the four of us carried down two. The county official asked us which village we were from and directly gave us the two pigs."
The aunt said, "Oh, that's a fat pig weighing over 100 pounds. It's really well raised. You are such a kind-hearted girl, and you are trustworthy. We are so grateful to you." She handed a bag of eggs to Jiang Mi, "This is what our team collected, one for each family. It's a gift from us. Take it and have a try."
Cui Mancang's face was wrinkled with smile. "Mi girl, what you said is so right. When we went to Lihua Brigade to collect pigs, we met the captain and several members of Xuzhai Brigade. When they heard we were going to collect pigs, they said we were dreaming. You can't just collect pigs from the county. They also said it was a waste of fuel. When they heard we got two pigs today, they rushed to get them too. In the end, there were no more pigs. Now they are regretting it so much. Mi girl, take these eggs. Compared with the two pigs on the mission, these twenty or so eggs are nothing."
Jiang Mi: "Uncle Cui, Auntie, I just said a word, how can you eat this egg? I really don't want it, take it back and give it to the children in the team."
The aunt still stuffed it into Jiang Mi's hand and said, "I made a special trip just to bring you eggs."
Their group was grateful for Jiang Mi's kindness.
"If you need anything from the Cuijiazhuang Brigade in the future, just let me know."
Jiang Mi smiled brightly: "Thank you, auntie."
Cui Mancang's face was full of smiles: "Old Zhou, if something like this happens again, please come and inform our team so that we can get some benefits."
Cui Mancang wanted to take people back, but Zhou Dashan kept them and said they should have a couple of drinks tonight.
Zhou Dashan: "Jiahe, help Miyatou carry the eggs back. They are too heavy."
Yang Jiahe helped Jiang Mi carry the eggs. Jiang Mi quietly scratched the palm of Yang Jiahe's hand with her fingers, then looked at Yang Jiahe with a pounding heart and found that his expression was a little unnatural and his whole body was tense.
Innocent, reserved and old-fashioned.
But Jiang Mi likes it very much.
She called Xiaobai and followed Yang Jiahe out.
Cui Mancang's wife said, "Brother Dashan, why do these two look so strange to me? They look like they are dating."
She is a girl from Yangjiagou and has the same grandfather as Zhou Dashan.
Zhou Dashan laughed: "What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go to our house for a drink."
Dating is good, getting married is even better.
This girl Mi looks like a blessed girl. Being able to marry into Yangjiagou, their blessings are yet to come.
Now many people in the team are secretly hoping that Jiang Mi will marry into Yangjiagou.
Jiang Mi and Yang Jia walked side by side, neither of them talking, but they looked very happy.
When they arrived at the educated youth point, Yang Jiahe followed in and brought the things in.
Jiang Mi gave half of the egg to Yang Jiahe, "We both have a share in the pig farm we discovered."
Yang Jiahe: "It's all yours."
Jiang Mi wanted to share it with Yang Jiahe, so she gave him half.
Yang Jiahe: "Come out to catch eels at night?"
Jiang Mi nodded: "Yeah."
Su Wenchen was very jealous. Why were these two people getting more and more annoying day by day? In fact, they didn’t talk much, but the look in their eyes and the atmosphere were really different.
Yu Da and Yang Yuan played stone chess on the ground. They casually drew a chessboard on the ground and then played with two different kinds of stones. This was one of the favorite activities of the male educated youth.
Yu Da: "Jiahe, let's eat together later. The educated youth ordered chicken soup."
Yang Jiahe smiled and said, "Some other time." He resisted the urge to touch Jiang Mi's hair, "See you later."
Jiang Mi sent him out of the yard again, and suddenly thought of something: "Wait a moment."
She went back and added some water to the bamboo cup, then added some orange essence. After shaking it well, she ran out and asked, "Can you engrave something on this cup?"
Yang Jiahe: "Is that your name?"
Jiang Mimin smiled, holding the cup, and pointed to the spot under her palm: "I want to carve the word 'harmony' here."
This way you can hold it in your hands all the time.
Yang Jiahe smiled, and this time her smile was particularly bright, her eyebrows raised, her peach blossom eyes curved into crescents, like a spring breeze blowing on her face, particularly charming.
He took the cup from Jiang Mi's palm and said, "Yeah."
Jiang Mi smiled brightly, "It contains orange juice."
Yang Jiahe hummed again, "Go back, I'll watch you go in."
Jiang Mi walked into the house with a smile, and Yang Jiahe left only after she walked into the yard.
Jiang Mi ran into the room and looked at herself in the mirror on the table. The girl in the mirror was stunningly beautiful. Her dark, clear almond-shaped eyes were filled with affection and a smile. Her nose was beautiful and straight, and her lips were rosy and full. She took out a comb and combed her hair. Her hair had grown a little long, reaching her shoulders. It was black and smooth, but it had grown a lot of fluffy hair. It looked a little frizzy, but not ugly at all. It was very cute.
Beautiful people are beautiful no matter what.
She tried to tie her hair into a small bun, but her hair was a little short and she couldn't tie it all up. However, she could tie two small buns, which looked both pretty and cute, but it made her look too small, so she let her hair down again.
After admiring herself in the room for a while, she straightened her hair and ran to the kitchen to watch Chen Xi cook.
What I made today was chicken stewed with mushrooms. The flavor of chicken soup has already come out, fresh and fragrant. Chen Xi is watching the stove at the moment, adding some firewood from time to time.
Cheng Yuze is picking the vegetables outside and will blanch them in chicken soup later.
The staple food is pancakes made of two-grain flour. Today's pancakes made of two-grain flour are more delicious than those in the past. They contain more fine grains and are not as dry and rough.
Jiang Mi carried half a bag of eggs to the kitchen and asked Chen Xi to help put them in the cabinet and lock it. She cooked one for Jiang Miao every morning and asked her to take it to school for lunch.
Chen Xi: "Did you buy it?"
Jiang Mi: "Yesterday, the leader of Cuijiazhuang Brigade led the members to collect the two task pigs, and today they sent me some eggs."
Chen Xi: "No wonder you look so happy."
"I'm not happy because of this." She said with a smile: "Sister Xi, do you have your elementary and junior high school textbooks? You can flip through the textbooks when you have time."
Chen Xi: "!!! What does this mean?"
There must be a reason why Jiang Mi asked her to look through the textbook.
Jiang Mi said, "I see you're quite bored sometimes. You're free anyway, why not read a book?" Then she leaned in closer and whispered, "We might build a primary school by the end of the year, and we'll definitely hire a lot of teachers. Don't tell anyone."
These past few days, I haven't found a suitable opportunity to talk to Chen Xi.
Chen Xi was excited: "Mi Mi, I don't know how to thank you."
If I become a teacher, I won’t have to do farm work, and teachers can get paid.
Jiang Mi: "Maybe something unexpected will happen, but it's always good to read more books."
Chen Xi choked up and said, "Mimi, thank you for telling me such a big thing. I definitely won't tell anyone else. I have my textbooks with me. I used to flip through them often, but now I don't do it as much."
If she tells others about it and everyone starts learning it, her advantage will be gone.
Jiang Mi smiled: "Yeah." Taking advantage of the free time, she added some space water to the chicken soup.
This kind of chicken soup is not only delicious, but also good for your health.
After a while, He Zhaodi returned with Ji Yingying. She said, "Nian'er has gone up the mountain. Let's save some food for her so she can eat when she comes back in the evening."
Ding Ankang: "Why did she go up the mountain? She didn't even come back to eat the chicken soup in the evening. What happened on the mountain?"
He Zhaodi: "She followed Yang Manli up the mountain."
Ji Yingying squatted under a tree and watched Xiaobai and the roasted suckling pig fighting.
The roast suckling pig couldn't beat Xiaobai, but it gradually gained the momentum to fight.
Jiang Mi also watched from the side. When the roast suckling pig couldn't beat Xiao Bai and ran away, she brought the roast suckling pig to Xiao Bai and let the two little guys continue to fight.
"Your sister Yingying is enjoying the show so much, how can we just leave?"
Ji Yingying smiled and continued to watch the two little things fight.
Although Xiaobai and the roast suckling pig are relatively small, they are very restrained when fighting, and their main purpose is to have fun.
Jiang Mi was curious about what Yang Manli was doing up the mountain this time. She wondered if she was going to snatch the male lead's favor again. She really wanted to go down the mountain and wait for a chance to win.
Jiang Miao came back late. He and his friends found a rabbit hole today, but unfortunately they didn't block the rabbit, so the rabbit ran away. After a long time of struggling, they came back with regret.
Because it was almost time for dinner, Hu Zi and the others looked at Xiao Bai, hugged him one by one, and then left, saying that they would come back to play with Xiao Bai in the evening.
When it was almost time for dinner, Ji Yingying's brother Ji Kuan came. He brought daily necessities to Ji Yingying, even bedding and mosquito nets, which meant she planned to stay a while longer.
He also brought ten kilograms of rice and ten kilograms of fine noodles as Ji Yingying's food.
Finally, there were two boxes of cooked food, one serving of braised pork and one serving of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
He Zhaodi looked at Ji Kuan. The more she looked at him, the more loving her eyes became. She asked him to stay for dinner before leaving.
Chen Xi also served the chicken soup. The two chicken legs were not chopped up. Ji Yingying and Ji Kuan each got one, and the others each got a bowl. It was just served casually, with a few good pieces mixed with a few bad pieces.
Xu Nian'er and Jiang Shuyin's food was also served and they would eat it when they came back.
Two chopsticks of braised pork and tomato and egg were left for each of them, but no vegetables boiled in chicken soup were left for them.
Eat green vegetables every day.
Today's meal is very rich. The mushrooms are all fresh and stewed with chicken. They are so delicious that you can swallow your tongue.
As usual, everyone ate the dishes on their plates first. Braised pork and tomato and egg were the most popular. He Zhaodi ate a piece of braised pork herself and said to Ji Yingying, "Don't drink the chicken soup yet. Eat the dishes first. The chicken soup is in your bowl and it won't go away. If you don't eat the dishes now, they will be gone."
Ji Yingying then picked up the braised pork first. The braised pork was about the size of a thumb, and it was stewed until it was soft, chewy, fresh and delicious.
Yu Da also picked up some braised pork for Ji Kuan, "Hurry up and eat it, it's more fragrant and goes well with rice."
Jiang Mi and Jiang Miao were not at all ambiguous when eating meat. When they reached the last piece of braised pork, several pairs of chopsticks went to pick up the meat. Ji Yingying was one step faster and picked up the braised pork.
He Zhaodi regretted: "I was a step too slow!"
Actually, he was just teasing Ji Yingying.
Under the gaze of everyone, Ji Yingying ate this
A piece of braised pork, "It smells so good."
Ji Kuan also laughed, and his sister became more lively than before.
The delicious meat and vegetables were gone, so everyone started drinking chicken soup. Ding Ankang said, "Why do I feel that the chicken soup today is particularly delicious?"
He Zhaodi: "The chicken soup is always delicious." After taking a sip, she found that "it is indeed better. The soup is very fresh and a little sweet. Sister Xi, how do you make the chicken soup?"
Chen Xi: "Just like usual, maybe the chicken and mushrooms are fresher today."
Jiang Mi smiled: "And Sister Xi's cooking skills are even better." When she was eating chicken, she found a whole chicken wing in her bowl. She was surprised~ This must be because Chen Xi took care of her.
After taking a sip of the chicken soup, Ji Kuan also felt that it was delicious. He said, "The chicken is just an ordinary chicken. It's just that Comrade Chen Xi's cooking skills are good." He talked to everyone, saying that Yingying had caused trouble for everyone and asked everyone to take good care of her.
He Zhaodi patted her chest and promised that she would take good care of Yingying, and that Yingying would be involved in any fun, and she would ensure that she was happy every day.
Yingying has only been here for one day, but her family has already sent her so many delicious foods. Everyone wishes she could stay here longer.
After eating, He Zhaodi sighed: "I had such a great meal today. I can gain half a pound of weight."
It was getting dark, and Ji Kuan left without staying long. Before leaving, Chen Xi handed him a net bag. At the bottom were juicy green vegetables, and on top were fresh mushrooms picked from the mountains.
The total weight is about five or six kilograms.
Ji Kuan refused, but He Zhaodi forced it in for him. Ji Kuan couldn't resist the girl, who was really strong.
Ji Kuan rode away on his bicycle, feeling relieved to let Yingying stay here.
These educated youth are really energetic and can make Yingying happier.
He was grateful to these educated youth for rescuing Yingying and now making Yingying happier.
Everyone cleaned up the dishes, and Hu Zi and others came over after dinner. They watched Xiaobai with Jiang Miao and asked Jiang Mi if they could take Xiaobai out to catch wild rabbits.
Jiang Mi: ...
"Isn't it a bit too much to ask a one-month-old puppy to catch wild rabbits?"
Goudan: "Sister Mimi, you can't underestimate Xiaobai! He's very smart."
Hu Zi: "Xiao Bai is very smart! He can crush ants to death with one foot and can also bite insects to death."
Jiang Mi: "...Well, you can, but you have to take good care of Xiaobai."
The children promised to take good care of Xiaobai and then
He followed Xiaobai and ran out. Xiaobai also liked to play recently and ran after him.
After Ding Ankang and Cheng Yuze whispered for a long time in the house, they came outside with books and recited poems by the river. Some were quotations from the Chairman, and some were poems that the Chairman had read before. Anyway, they were recited in a rhythmic manner.
Yang Manli and Zhou Hehua, who used to be very supportive of Ding Ankang, are no longer supportive of him. Yang Manli is chasing after Zhou Huailin, and Zhou Hehua has recently stopped listening to him recite poems, helping him with his work, and giving him eggs to eat.
Ding Ankang didn't understand. How was he any worse than Zhou Huailin? But he definitely didn't like Yang Manli. She was too aggressive! He was just a little resentful.
He is so handsome, so talented, and he is from the city.
The two of them were planning to attract a wave of girls from the village. With their demeanor, how could there not be gentle girls who liked them?
Cheng Yuze's love for Jiang Shuyin has faded. After being brainwashed by Ding Ankang, he now also likes gentle girls.
Jiang Mi and a few others were listening at the entrance of the educated youth site. The reading was quite nice, with ups and downs, and the voice was quite pleasant. If Ding Ankang's voice were in modern times, it would be comparable to that of a male anchor.
Ji Yingying found it incredible: "Are they like this every day?"
He Zhaodi: "They used to study in the courtyard. Today I saw them discussing for a long time. I think they were trying to attract the girls in the team."
Jiang Mi laughed: "I don't know if the little girl came, but her mother and sisters-in-law came."
The aunt and the lady who lived nearby had finished their meal and heard the noise, so they came over to see what was going on. They listened to the two people reciting poems and gathered around to listen. After a while, many more people came.
He kept praising Ding Ankang and Cheng Yuze for their beautiful recitation.
Cheng Yuze's face grew increasingly grim, and he tried to slip away. The aunts stopped him, clamoring to listen. This was quite interesting.
An old lady said, "The girls in our brigade don't like to listen, but we do. Even though we're old, our hearts are still young. You guys keep reading."
Another aunt also said: "From now on, we can recite here for a while every night. After dinner, we have nothing to do, and now we have something to do for entertainment."
A few little girls wanted to come over, but they were driven back by the aunts and sisters-in-law. They thought there was no point for little girls to join in the fun.
Ding Ankang and Cheng Yuze: ...
Yang Jiahe came, carrying a wooden barrel and a fishing hook, and took Jiang Mi to fish for eels. Jiang Mi straightened her clothes and decided not to stay here to watch the fun, so she followed Yang Jiahe and left.
He Zhaodi's eyes lit up: "Are these two dating?"
Chen Xi:
You think too much. Mimi didn't say anything, so let's just ignore it."
He Zhaodi curled her lips. She definitely wouldn't care. Jiang Mi was her God of Wealth. She pulled Ji Yingying aside and said, "Isn't it really fun here at the educated youth camp? It's so lively. It's like watching a movie every day. The last time Jiang Shuyin and Yang Manli had a fight, it was a real blast. I wonder if they'll fight again today."
Ji Yingying nodded heavily: "It's really fun."
And expect a fight.
Jiang Mi went fishing with Yang Jiahe, and they chose a pond under the willow trees at the entrance of the village.
He handed the bamboo cup to Jiang Mi. He had added words on the cup. It was not just the word "和", but an extra word "和" on the bamboo leaves. It was very hidden, as if it were the veins on the leaves.
Jiang Mi looked at it carefully and noticed the word "和" on it at first glance. She liked it very much and traced the words with her fingers. Finally, she held the whole cup in her palm and looked at him, "Is the orange juice sweet?"
Yang Jiahe: "Sweet and sour, very delicious."
It was obviously just ordinary orange juice, but Yang Jiahe thought it tasted good, and after drinking it, he felt more energetic. The water that Jiang Mi brought was so attractive. Yang Jiahe thought it was just a psychological effect, and he simply thought that everything Jiang Mi gave was good.
Jiang Mi reached out and held Yang Jiahe's little finger: "I will make orange juice for you every day from now on."
Yang Jiahe was about to get drunk: "Yeah."
Yang Jiahe started fishing for eels. This time it was so easy, as if he had poked an eel's nest. In a short while, he caught six eels.
Yang Jiahe: ???
Jiang Mi added space water to the ear food, which was too tempting for the eel. As soon as the hook was released, the eel came out of the hole to eat it.
Jiang Mi: "The eels know I want to eat them, and they are scrambling to come over."
After catching about ten fish, they stopped fishing. Jiang Mi held Yang Jiahe's little finger and said, "Let's go find Miaomiao. They took Xiaobai to catch rabbits."
Yang Jiahe held Jiang Mi's little hand tightly.
Jiang Mi suddenly felt that the surroundings were too quiet, so quiet that they could hear each other's heartbeats, and the only sound was each other's heartbeats in their ears.
She looked up at him.
Jiang Mi's eyes are beautiful, round almond-shaped, clear as a spring. She looks innocent when she looks up at people, and the red mole under her eye adds a touch of charm to her.
It makes people want to touch and kiss.
The numbing sensation spread from the red mole to the surrounding area. Jiang Mi tried hard to control her breathing, not wanting to appear vulnerable. However, she couldn't help but take a step back, her heart pounding. She felt that if she continued, she might be in trouble.
"Let's go to the back mountain to find Miaomiao."
Yang Jiahe held her hand and walked towards the back mountain. Neither of them spoke along the way, and Jiang Mi's heart was beating uncontrollably.
Yang Jiahe said, "How much is the betrothal gift? I'll save it up as soon as possible."
Jiang Mimin pursed her lips and whispered, "Anything is fine."
Yang Jiahe chuckled, "Then I have to prepare more."
We met Goudan and his friends at the foot of the mountain. The kids were very easy to find because they had lit a fire.
Several children were busy. Xiaobai found a rabbit hole, blocked the rabbit hole, and started to light a fire to smoke it out.
They still know how to smoke the rabbit hole this way.
After a while, a rabbit suddenly jumped out from a rabbit hole. They had not discovered this rabbit hole before, but Xiaobai moved very quickly and tried to pounce on the rabbit with his short legs, but of course he missed.
Yang Jiahe hit the rabbit with a stone, knocking it unconscious. Jiang Miao ran over and lifted the rabbit by its ears. The rabbit was very heavy, weighing four or five pounds, which was enough for a large pot of meat.
The mouths of several children were almost stretched to their ears.
The other children quickly separated into two groups to block the rabbit hole.
It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. They have found three holes, and there can be another rabbit hole here.
A second gray rabbit ran out of the cave. Xiaobai pounced on it and bit the rabbit's leg. Hu Zi and others quickly grabbed the rabbit's ears. The rabbit kicked and struggled, but Goudan tied its legs with a rope and threw it to the ground.
Several children continued to squat here to catch rabbits, and Jiang Mi and Yang Jiahe watched from the side. After about half an hour, the fire in the bonfire had burned out, and it was obvious that there were no rabbits.
Hu Zi hugged Xiao Bai and said, "You are really great. You are a great hero. You can find the rabbit hole and catch the little rabbit even though you are so young."
Erya: "Xiaobai is so amazing. I'll let you eat rabbit meat tomorrow."
Goudan: "Sister Mimi, you can't underestimate Xiaobai. Xiaobai is very powerful."
Jiang Mi: "I underestimated Xiaobai. He will definitely be a good hunting dog in the future."
Hu Zi and Goudan each carried a rabbit and walked towards the village.
Several people were very happy, and they discussed how to eat rabbit meat all the way, praising Xiaobai for being so good, and wanted to reward Xiaobai for eating rabbit meat.
Meat.
Jiang Mi held Jiang Miao's hand. Although they were holding hands, her heart stopped pounding when she held Jiang Miao's hand.
When they arrived at the entrance of the educated youth camp, Hu Zi gave a rabbit to Jiang Miao and said, "Let's continue looking for rabbit nests tomorrow."
Yang Jiahe gave the eel to Jiang Mi, and Jiang Mi said, "Then come to the educated youth camp for dinner tomorrow night. You caught this rabbit."
Yang Jiahe nodded: "Go in."
Jiang Mi nodded and took Jiang Miao in.
Ding Ankang and a few others were enjoying the cool breeze in the yard. When they saw Jiang Miao coming in with a rabbit, they were surprised: "Where did this rabbit come from?"
Jiang Miao: "Xiaobai found the rabbit hole, and Jiahe knocked out the rabbit."
He Zhaodi ran out of the house, grinning, "Holy crap! A rabbit!" She ran over and weighed the rabbit, "It must be over five pounds! It's a really fat rabbit."
Then he picked up Xiaobai and said, "Xiaobai is really good. He can find rabbit holes at such a young age. When he grows up, he won't have to worry about eating meat."
Su Wenchen was also stunned, and had a vague illusion that everything Jiang Mi raised was different.
Ji Yingying and Chen Xi also came out and praised Xiaobai together.
Xiaobai raised his tail proudly.
Su Wenchen: "Are those eels in this bucket? You two caught so many eels!"
Jiang Mi said, "Let's have spicy rabbit and spicy fried eel tomorrow, Sister Xi, is that okay?"
Chen Xi: "If I eat meat every day, I'll be happy to do anything."
Ding Ankang: "If I wrote a letter home saying I ate meat every day at the educated youth camp, they probably wouldn't believe me."
Chen Xi smiled and said, "We don't just eat meat every day. We also have five pounds of pickled meat and three pounds of fried meat."
There were no refrigerators or freezers in those days, so it was difficult to store things in the summer, especially meat. However, if you fried the meat dry and then buried it in lard, it could be preserved for about ten days.
He Zhaodi was delighted: "I definitely don't believe it."
It is not easy for people in the city to eat meat. Unless it is a festival, no family would be willing to cut meat for eating.
This rabbit has not been killed. It will be kept for a day and killed tomorrow so that it can be eaten fresh.
It was already past ten o'clock, and everyone had washed up and it was time to go to bed, but He Zhaodi and Jiang Shuyin had not returned yet.
Chen Xi was getting a little impatient. "Wait a little longer. Could they still be on the mountain? It's so dangerous to be on the mountain at night."
Apart from snakes and insects, if there are really wild beasts on the mountain, only hunters with guns would dare to go there at night.
If the two of them don't
On the mountain, Chen Xi was not too worried.
Ding Ankang: "These two are so fierce, how could they be in any danger? Even if they encountered a wild boar, they would be able to leave it behind. As for encountering any bad guys, there is no need to worry about being the bad guys. There is no need to look for them at all."
Chen Xi: ???
He Zhaodi: "The last time a wild boar chased Jiang Shuyin, she was way ahead. Even if she hadn't been rescued, she would have made it to the foot of the mountain. Nian'er shouldn't be slower than Jiang Shuyin. Don't be afraid of a wild boar if you run into one. Maybe you can even lead it back to the village."
That's good news. The people in the team can kill the wild boar in minutes.
Everyone: ...
Chen Xi felt inexplicably relieved.
Although Jiang Shuyin and Xu Nian'er are girls, they are not ordinary girls.
If I really meet a bad guy, I can beat him half to death.
When it was almost eleven o'clock and the person still hadn't returned, Chen Xi called the male educated youth at the educated youth point to go look for him together.
Everyone put on their coats and went out with flashlights.
Everyone walked out and just as they reached the village entrance, they saw from a distance someone seemed to be running towards them.
He ran while yelling "Ahhhhhh".
Everyone:!!!
Chen Xi: "It's Xu Nian'er and the others!"
Jiang Shuyin also ran and shouted for help.
A group of people ran over.
Xu Nian'er shouted, "Ahhh, wild boar! There's a wild boar! Catch it! It's right behind us! Don't let it get away! Catch it! Jiang Mi, run quickly."
Jiang Mi almost didn't hesitate and pulled Jiang Miao and Ji Yingying to run. Chen Xi also ran and shouted: "Help, there are wild boars coming out to fight wild boars."
Yu Da and others were so excited that wild boar = pork.
Many young people in this brigade are very capable, not to mention their fathers and grandfathers who are all old hunters.
The male educated youth did not turn around and ran towards Yang Manli and others. Three of them were carrying one person and running forward.
That's really fast.
The person who carried it was Zhou Huailin.
Zhou Huailin was lying on his side, Jiang Shuyin was carrying his shoulders, Xu Nian'er was carrying his waist, and Yang Manli was carrying his thighs. Three women were holding an adult and running so fast.
Yang Manli screamed: "There's a wild boar behind us, help me!"
Yu Da and Su Wenchen hurried to pick up Zhou Huailin and Jiang Shuyin. Without any hesitation, they threw Zhou Huailin to the two of them and ran forward.
He left Yu Da and Su Wenchen behind.
!!! How can you run so fast?
The villagers had heard that a wild boar had entered the village, and many of them ran out shirtless.
Rush out to stop the wild boar.
Yang Jia and his family also ran over. Yang Jia ran the fastest.
Jiang Mi, holding Jiang Miao and Ji Yingying, ran towards Yang Jiahe. Yang Jiahe supported Jiang Mi and wiped her sweat. "Don't be afraid, let's go and take a look."
Now so many people don’t have to run.
Seeing more and more people coming, the wild boar was afraid to continue chasing and hesitated for a moment, so it turned around and tried to run away.
The wild boar's retreat was blocked by a group of people. Several ropes were tied directly to the wild boar's four legs and gradually tightened. The wild boar fell to the ground with a thud. It roared fearlessly and tried to stand up.
An old hunter raised his rifle and fired two shots at the wild boar, which screamed shrilly until it gradually stopped moving.
Everyone gathered around and besides looking at the wild boar, they were also looking at Zhou Huailin.
Zhou Huailin had his shirt stripped off and fell into a coma.
Zhou Huailin's mother rushed over to check Zhou Huailin's injuries. "Huailin, don't scare me. Wake up quickly."
Xu Nian'er: "Aunt, I saved Zhou Huailin. They say that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's own body. This is how we repay the favor."
Yang Manli pushed her away directly: "Aunt, I saved Huailin. I was the first one to find Zhou Huailin fainted on the mountain."
Jiang Shuyin: "Aunt, it was me who saved Brother Huai Lin."!
