After Xu Yi and the others finished, seeing that there was still time, they all rushed up the small hill. There were many small hills in Dashi Village, not very high, and some of them were used by children as playgrounds.
They climbed to the top of the mountain, then sat on the ground and slid straight down from the top, having a great time and managing to slide a smooth path through the land.
Every summer, you can always see a few kids with torn pants walking back from here, followed by the sound of stir-fried bamboo shoots with pork.
Today is the last day of the school's holiday for the busy farming season, and the children in the village who go to school are even more excited, with a long line already waiting on the small hillside.
The three Xu brothers had already been summoned and ran off like madmen. "What are you doing?" Xu Yi saw Fu Man'er about to follow, so he quickly grabbed her.
"Brother, I want to play too." She had never played this before, and it looked like a lot of fun.

Just then, Wang Erni, leading a group of little girls, called out, "Sister Man'er, look at us!" It's unclear when it started, but Wang Erni has been calling her "Sister Man'er" so affectionately.
Fu Man'er looked at them and saw several little girls sitting on the ground in a staggered manner. With a push of their legs, they slid down the slope, while the others rushed all the way down.
Only Wang Erni slowed down when she was almost at the bottom. She seemed to know this would happen, and with a little more effort from her feet, she successfully reached the ground.
She led a group of little girls over in a flurry, saying, "Little sister Man'er, let's go upstairs and play."
Fu Man'er, who was already itching to go, became even more impatient. She shook off Xu Yi's hand and ran up the mountain hand in hand with Wang Erni.
Xu Yi could already imagine what kind of second aunt he would face when he got home. It didn't matter, he was numb to it all.
Chen Ergou was among the people playing on the mountaintop. When he saw Xu Yi casually walking up, he felt a chill and hid himself in front of Xu Yi, afraid that Xu Yi would see him.
After that fight, his buttocks were bruised for almost half a month before they healed.
"Hey, Er Gou, it's not your turn yet." Chen Er Gou squeezed to the front and slid down in a flash, much to the dissatisfaction of the people in line above.
"When Er Gou comes up later, let him queue for two more rounds." The rules were already agreed upon when we played here.

Xu Yi stood at the top and looked down. He saw Chen Ergou below hurriedly get up from the ground and run away without even brushing the dust off his butt.
As she ran, she looked up and met Xu Yi's gaze. Xu Yi looked at her with a half-smile, and Chen Ergou ran even faster.
The people on the mountain were too busy having fun to notice that Chen Ergou hadn't come back up after going down.
Fu Man'er kept craning her little head to look ahead, "Erni, there are only three left, and then it's us."
Wang Erni puffed out her cheeks and said, "Little sister Man'er, I'm older than you, so you should call me Sister Erni, just like I call you Little sister Man'er."
"Mm." Fu Man'er nodded in response, turned around and looked for the person, then called out, "Brother, it's almost my and Erni's turn, come quickly."
Wang Erni: I said nothing, and I agreed to nothing.
Xu Yi reluctantly walked over. Fu Man'er wanted to play, but was a little scared. She insisted that he hold her and slide down with her. She had gotten tired of this kind of game when she was five or six years old.
Unfortunately, Fu Man'er really wanted to play, and Xu Mao and the others had originally said they would take Fu Man'er along, since she was willing.
As soon as Xu Yi came over, Fu Man'er quickly climbed onto him, afraid that he would change his mind.

Xu Yi wasn't the oldest among the group of children on the mountain, but he stood out the most when he walked over. The Xu family had good genes, and Xu Yi combined the advantages of Xu Genshan and Liu Fang.
His eyebrows were slightly heroic, and his eyes, which were neither black nor white, revealed a hint of helplessness. He had a pert nose, thin lips, a perfect jawline, and a slender figure, making him look older than his actual age.
In addition, his expressionless face without the slightest smile made people think that this young man was really good-looking.
"Xu Yi." Xu Yi turned around when he heard the voice and glanced at the person who called him. It was a girl from his classmate's class, but he couldn't remember her name.
"Hmm." He responded and then turned his head away because Fu Man'er, the little devil, was shouting "Ah ah ah" in his ear. They were next, and they were even more scared looking at the somewhat steep hillside. He didn't know why they insisted on playing.
"Brother, hold me tight, don't throw me out." Fu Man'er hugged Xu Yi's neck tightly, almost breaking it.
Finally, Xu Yi pulled her hand off, let Fu Man'er sit in front of him, and with a push of his feet, the two of them began to slide down.
The girl who had just called him craned her neck to look down, then glanced at the chattering boys behind her, and wondered why the difference was so stark.
A gentle breeze kept brushing past his ears, carrying with it Fu Man'er's shouts into Xu Yi's ears, not a single sound fading away.
Because of nervousness, Fu Man'er's little hands were still tightly gripping Xu Yi's hand. When they got down, Xu Yi put her down and looked at the back of her hand. There were ten small red marks, not one missing.

I thought that Fu Man'er would stop playing after shouting like that, but who knew she wouldn't stop for a moment and ran up the mountain with Wang Erni and the others.
Xu Yi helplessly patted the dust off his backside: God, have mercy on me.
After this happened several times, Xu Yi couldn't take it anymore and stopped letting Fu Man'er go play. He also called his three younger brothers to join in.
Fortunately, Fu Man'er was also very enthusiastic about eating wild fruits, which made Xu Yi's wish come true. They went to the other side of the hillside, and several other children came along with them.
Today, Fu Man'er specially brought out her little bamboo basket and hoe. At this time of year, in addition to wild vegetables, there are also some wild radishes growing on the mountain.
They are no bigger than an adult's palm, with half green and half white skin, and sometimes they are wrinkled. Fu Man'er and Wang Erni had dug them up before. These kinds of radishes don't taste good, but they are a bit juicy.
She digs them up to feed the sheep. The leg of the sheep at home hasn't healed yet, so Fu Man'er cuts grass for it every day. Recently, she's become obsessed with digging up radishes.
The Xu family didn't know that the sheep had eaten the radish without any problems, so they let Fu Man'er do whatever she wanted.
After eating her fill of wild fruits, Fu Man'er began to dig. The radishes were scattered here and there, and she had to look around to find the next one after digging one up.
"Wow, what a long radish!" Fu Man'er put in a lot of effort to dig out a radish under a tree. It wasn't actually that big, just bigger than the radishes she had just dug up. "It's just too thin and the root is too long."

She didn't like it and casually tossed the radish into the small bamboo basket. She didn't want it at first, but she smelled it and found it fragrant, so she kept it.
After digging up a few more small radishes nearby, Fu Man'er gave up. The radishes here were no good at all, but the weeds were plentiful.
The small bamboo basket was filled with radishes and wild grass, and it was quite full.
