"Is this place called Qilipo because it's seven miles away from the village?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"I think so." Liu Ankang replied, pointing his finger forward.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Song Jinxiu stood on a hillside, with a sunken flat ground below.
Except for the hillside at your feet, the other three sides are surrounded by woods.
There was a stream flowing at the bottom of the hill, with unknown small flowers blooming on both sides. Red, yellow, and white, they were blooming one after another.
There is an obvious trampled mark in the middle, which should be the way into the valley.
When we got closer, we saw that there were indeed several large flat rocks protruding in the middle of the stream, and everyone was crossing the river by stepping on the rocks.
There is a big pit downstream, and I don’t know whether it was formed naturally or dug by humans. It seems that everyone carries water from the pit to irrigate the fields.
Except for being a little far away, this place is perfect! Song Jinxiu thought.
"The water is too little." Liu Ankang said, as if he saw through her thoughts.
"That's right." There is so much land here. If we plant rice on it all, it will be difficult to water it with just this small stream.
Song Jinxiu didn't stay long. She said hello to them, took the bucket and went home.
I took Liu Ankang with me as well. There were a few turns that I was still unsure about, so I took him again to familiarize him with them.
"An An, I want to ask you! A spider fell from the roof and it only has seven legs. Do you know why?" While walking on the road, Song Jinxiu talked to Liu Ankang.
Liu Ankang thought about it and shook his head.
"Because it covered its chest with one leg and kept saying, 'I'm scared to death, I'm scared to death.' Hahahaha," Song Jinxiu said and then she burst into laughter.
Liu Ankang looked up at the sky in silence. Could this person be mentally retarded?
I made brown rice in the evening. I have been soaking the brown rice since noon.
Song Jinxiu thought about it and decided to add some rice to improve the taste.
Once again, I feel that people’s stomachs are so strong nowadays that I have to prepare special meals with a sad face.
The two of them should just eat the rice that no one likes.
(People in the past couldn’t bear to eat it themselves and would always say that I didn’t like it! Hahaha)
Because the little donkey would be needed in the future, Song Jinxiu entrusted the little donkey to Dalinzi.
This way, there would be no need to knock on the door early every morning to lead the donkey, and Song Jinxiu also prepared a lot of food for the donkey.
Song Jinxiu worked diligently as a cook, and everyone was impressed by her cooking skills.
The monkey said proudly, "How can I lie to you?"
Everyone focused their attention on Dalinzi, and after a few days, everyone understood Dalinzi's thoughts.
"Why are you looking at me? Get to work!" Dalinzi yelled at them.
"You're in for a treat!" Someone came over and put their arms around Dalinzi's neck and said, "We're good friends, so can I come visit more often?"
"Get out! I'm telling you, stop talking nonsense! Don't ruin other people's reputation when there's nothing even remotely related to this matter." Dalinzi punched him in the stomach.
"Wow! They're starting to protect us now!" The group of people were not afraid at all and started to make a noise.
"What's so good about a delicate and weak girl? Are you going to marry her and take her home to worship her?" A burly man scratched his head and asked in confusion.
"What kind of wife does that big guy want?" someone asked.
"Wife, why do you want to marry a wife? After you bring her home, I have to share my food and my bed with her. I don't have enough food to eat myself, so how can I give away the extra food?" The big guy shook his head. It was too scary.
However, the true fragrance may be late, but it will never be absent!
The next topic of conversation turned to imagining what kind of wife they wanted to marry.
Dalinzi was very worried. He didn't know whether Song Jinxiu hadn't gotten it or was just not interested in him. It seemed like she had no interest in him at all!
After plowing the paddy fields and dry land, everyone will feel more relaxed about the next tasks.
The women also gathered together and decided to go to the market in town.
Because it is troublesome to go out, and if the items are not urgently needed, everyone likes to wait for the market in the next town to buy them together.
Song Jinxiu really wants to go, but she still has to cook! Woo woo woo!!!
"Xiao Song." Aunt Cuihua pushed the door open and came in. Song Jinxiu had just returned from a run.
Now Song Jinxiu runs with weights for half an hour to an hour every morning and evening.
"Why is my aunt here?" Song Jinxiu asked after taking off the sandbag from her feet.
"What are you doing?" Aunt Cuihua asked curiously.
"I'm exercising. My health was so bad before, so I'm going to strengthen it. Just in case, well, at least I can still run, right?" Song Jinxiu said.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, there are no such bad things now." Aunt Cuihua said quickly. The older generation just doesn't like to hear these unlucky words.
"By the way, everyone is donating things for the soldiers fighting in the war. I came to ask you what you want to donate." Aunt Cuihua said.
Even if our country is stable, others are suffering. We must make sure that the good men of our country live better in foreign lands.
"What did everyone donate?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"We have everything, three or five eggs, seven or eight eggs, as well as food, meat, and money," said Aunt Cuihua.
"Our family is going to donate 50 kilograms of brown rice. Everyone has suffered enough from the war. We hope the soldiers can have enough to eat and return victoriously as soon as possible!"
"You are young and didn't farm last year. If you are willing, just donate ten kilograms of brown rice. No one will say anything if you don't donate." Aunt Cuihua said to Song Jinxiu.
"Then I will donate ten kilograms of brown rice and five kilograms of dried vegetables." Vitamins are also very important.
"Okay, then you get ready. We'll collect them in a few days and deliver them directly to the town." Aunt Cuihua said and was about to leave.
Suddenly he asked again, "Aren't you going to the market tomorrow?"
"I have to cook!" Song Jinxiu said sadly.
"Hahaha! Do you want me to find someone to help you tomorrow?" said Aunt Cuihua.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Song Jinxiu nodded vigorously. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "But wouldn't that be too much trouble for me?"
"It's just one day, it's okay, the work isn't too heavy these days," said Aunt Cuihua. "Where's An An, is he out playing?"
"No, I can't drive him away. He's reading a book inside." Song Jinxiu said helplessly.
"Oh, can An An understand it?" Aunt Cuihua said curiously.
There are many literate people in the village, but the men are too old to teach children. Few women are literate, and they have a lot of trivial matters to deal with in their daily lives.
The most important thing is that in the past people were only busy filling their stomachs, so most of the children in the village were illiterate.
"Hi, since I saw that he loved studying so much, I taught him some lessons. Now he's doing fine and can understand simple books." Song Jinxiu said modestly.
A good teacher produces good students! I should be more low-key, hahahaha! !
"That's great! I didn't expect you to be so patient." Aunt Cuihua glanced at Song Jinxiu. Yes, it was obvious she hadn't suffered much, so it was normal for her to be able to read.
"Hehehehe!" Song Jinxiu grinned foolishly.
You can learn it after two teachings, and you don’t need any patience! I practice calligraphy every day, and I even want to mess up when I see it.
