Chapter 404: Xiao Ba, what did you say?
She couldn't help laughing.
After living in this village for such a long time, Shen Xiu'e is about to integrate into the ranks of rural old ladies!
Hahaha! It was really joyful. In order to make Shen Xiu'e less bored every day and most importantly to allow her to exercise more, she specially choreographed a set of square dance for her.
Ever since she happily learned it, every night after dinner, she would carry her radio to the village entrance and dance with a group of old ladies. The lineup became increasingly strong, so much so that even old ladies from other villages would come early after dinner to wait for them!
Aunt Hua is naturally not to be missed.
Shen Xiu'e is so happy every day. She is so cheerful every day that she even feels that she is several years younger!
Every time I call Zhao Huili, she is so envious.
I can't wait to retire so I can take a bus to Eastern Province and join her in square dancing.
Zhou Runde was also happy. He was happier than anyone else to see his wife so happy.
However, Mr. Zhou’s health is getting worse day by day. Two years ago, he could not get out of bed. If he had not had a nanny to take good care of him, he would have been tortured to death if he still lived in the Zhou family’s old house.
Therefore, even though Mr. Zhou's health was very poor at this time, his complexion still looked very good.
Every day after get off work, Zhou Runde would sit with him, read the newspaper, and feed him dinner.
Mr. Zhou was also very happy, but a little confused.
According to the nanny, he kept mumbling about his youth and even kept calling out "Gui Fen!"
Zhou Runde thought that he was probably missing his stepmother.
But the nanny said that after he repeated it a few times, he would stop talking.
Zhou Runde sent people to invite Li Guifen several times, but she was unwilling to come.
Since she didn't even want to see the old man, he didn't force her.
He had no good feelings towards that family of hers.
It’s better not to come!
He will be retiring by the end of the year, and after retirement he will be able to accompany the old man on his final journey.
Ever since Zhou Wanyu learned about her mother's life in Eastern Province, she has been extremely envious.
There are many chain stores of hair salons now. Each chain store has a responsible store manager and deputy store manager. There is also a special financial connection for the accounts. In fact, she and Sun Hongmei and others are no longer needed.
Moreover, Sun Hongmei is going to marry Axing at the end of the year.
The two of them got together unknowingly, and when Zhou Wanyu found out, they were already a couple.
Of course, Zhou Wanyu was naturally happy for Hongmei that she had found her other half in life.
But she inevitably felt a little lost.
Mainly because she watched the people around her getting married and having children one by one, but she was a woman who couldn't even give birth.
Zhou Wanyu suddenly made a decision. She decided to go to East Province to find Song Shiwei!
When Sun Hongmei heard her decision, she immediately agreed.
Anyway, the business is now on the right track, so it doesn’t matter if she is not here.
Another thing is that she and Ah Xing are both aware of her situation and feel a little sorry for her.
"Go ahead and have fun over there. Ah Xing and I will take care of everything here! You can just wait and count the money every month like Weiwei!"
In fact, she had another thought in her heart, which was that she hoped Wanyu could walk around more, see more, and relax. At the same time, she also hoped that she could find a soul mate who truly understood and loved her.
Especially Zhou Runde, when he heard that his daughter wanted to go to Eastern Province, he called Xiao Sun over without saying a word.
Go to the Eastern Province, he is familiar with it!
He was worried about his daughter traveling such a long distance by herself, so he was selfish again and took advantage of the fact that Xiao Sun was still his driver before he retired and asked him to take the trouble to take her there.
Why would Xiao Sun disagree?
He really wanted to go to Eastern Province again.
I haven’t tasted Song Shiwei’s cooking for a long time, I really miss it!
They set out on the road to Eastern Province, while Song Shiwei went into the mountains to look for Old Li and a few little ones.
I heard from Shen Xiu'e that Old Li took his four little kids to rob bird nests again today.
This mountain behind is not a steep mountain, nor is it a deep mountain. It is just a small hill that is slightly higher than the levee.
Many villagers go up the mountain to collect things.
Old Li is the same, he often goes to collect herbs and get some honey!
Of course, he didn't dare to destroy a beehive with a few children in tow.
It is still possible to rob bird nests.
The little ones were also happy.
Following behind him, I would pull some grass and pick some wood ear mushrooms.
These things were picked by Old Li who took them there.
Even though they are young, they all remember it!
Of course, if we were to say who remembers it best, it would definitely be Xiao Ba. Even Old Li didn't expect this.
Even though this child doesn't talk, he learns things very quickly.
Every time he taught them to recognize things, Xiao Ba was the one who learned most seriously.
Xiao Ba still remembered what he told the other little ones afterwards while picking herbs.
If he found herbs he had picked before, he would stand aside and not leave.
Old Li knew instantly that he had discovered the herb!
Every time this happened, he couldn't help but touch his head and praise him with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"Our little Hachi is so smart!"
Among these four little guys, the most mischievous ones are Xiaowu and Xiaoliu, the one who talks the most is Xiaoqi, but the smartest and most serious one is Xiaoba!
Maybe because Xiao Ba has some "psychological problems", Old Li would pay more attention to him and talk to him more.
Just then, as he was walking, Old Li saw a bird's nest in front of him and was about to hit it with a stick.
But Xiao Ba suddenly grabbed his trouser leg.
He looked at him in confusion: "Xiao Ba, what's wrong? You don't want the bird eggs anymore?"
Xiao Qi was still shouting: "Take the bird eggs! Take the bird eggs!!"
But Xiao Ba pointed to his ears.
Old Li frowned, as if he suddenly realized something.
He tilted his head back and listened carefully.
I could actually hear a few very slight "chirp" sounds!
It turned out that there were no eggs in the bird's nest, but baby birds that had just hatched.
But Xiao Ba suddenly bent his body and circled along the tree trunk.
As he turned around, he was carefully searching for something on the ground.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he reached out his hand and picked up a featherless chick from the dead leaves on the ground.
The bird's beak is milky yellow, and it chirps one by one.
The eyes were terribly large and dark, but not open, obviously just hatched.
He held the bird carefully and said with a happy smile: "Bird..."
Old Li suddenly heard him talking and thought he was hallucinating.
He immediately stepped forward excitedly and grabbed his arm: "Xiao Ba, what did you say? What did you say just now? Grandpa didn't hear it clearly!"
