Chapter 12: The girl is pretty and falls in love at first sight



Lin Jingshu had sharp ears, so she stopped and replied, "I learned all this from you. It's disrespectful to the elders."

After saying that, he pulled Lin Mu and ran away.

"Second brother, let's go home and let mother make something delicious."

After being in the mountains for so long, Lin Jingshu was already hungry and couldn't wait to go home for dinner.

When Gu Chengze came out of Grandma Wu's house, he happened to see Lin Jingshu running.

As the sun sets, the sky is slowly bathed in a layer of soft golden light, shining on the girl's body. Her black and shiny hair is braided into pigtails, shining with colorful light at this moment.

The flowers are colorless, but people are in front.

The bouquet in her hands could not hide her pretty face, and the colorful flowers pale in comparison to hers.

When I saw this sentence before, I didn’t have any specific concept in my mind. Now, looking at the girl not far away, I have a specific image. I think this is what she looks like.

When Hu Chuang came out, he saw Gu Chengze staring into the distance in a daze.

"What are you looking at?"

Gu Chengze looked away when he heard the voice and glanced at Hu Chuang, "Is it done?"

"It's done."

Hu Chuang touched his stomach and still felt a little pain. Could it be that he ate too much at noon?

Gu Chengze and Hu Chuang were on a mission and their base was not far from here. They took half a day off and came here to visit the families of the martyrs in the army and brought some things for the elderly.

Hu Chuang had a stomachache and had just borrowed someone else's toilet, which was why he came out a step late.

"By the way, what were you looking at just now?" Hu Chuang followed behind Gu Chengze and asked curiously.

"Look at the scenery." Gu Chengze said casually.

See the scenery? Hu Chuang looked back. What kind of scenery could there be in this place?

"What scenery? Are you eyeing the vegetables in someone else's field?"

When they were leaving just now, Grandma Wu wanted to send them some food back, but the two of them definitely declined. However, Hu Chuang really liked the cucumbers grown in her field, which were crispy and sweet.

Gu Chengze heard his words and decisively punched him in the chest. "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think everyone is like you?"

He is not a beast. Why is he staring at other people's vegetables in the field? If he had known earlier, he would have asked for someone else to be replaced. Hu Chuang is still so fond of imagining things.

The two were from military academy and were assigned to different places after graduation, but were reunited because of this mission.

Hu Chuang was very outgoing and when he saw that he was not going to let go, he pleaded with his leader to let them go on the mission together.

Gu Chengze guessed that this trip would be noisy, but he didn't expect it to be this noisy.

Hu Chuang continued to chatter, "Hey, what's wrong with me? Am I not telling the truth? I just saw you took the biggest cucumber. Mine is only half the size of yours."

By the way, Hu Chuang has another characteristic, which is that he likes to protect his food.

"How about we do it again after the mission is over?"

Hu Chuang was still reminiscing about the past and was planning to ask Grandma Wu for some seeds next time to grow seedlings.

Gu Chengze shook his head and walked in front with big strides to avoid being infected by him.

......

"We're back."

Ding Xiangzhi and Lin Yongkang were pounding green beans in the yard. They picked the beans and crushed them before the new crop of beans matured, then fried them with chili peppers.

Of course, beans are precious as crops, and people who have lived through hard times are reluctant to harm them in this way.

Ding Xiangzhi sets aside a small handful every year and plants it in the vegetable garden, which is enough for his family to eat for a few meals.

Lin Yongkang helped his daughter take down the backpack. "Did you dig up so much purslane? Didn't your mother say you and the second child went to dig mushrooms?"

He didn't take it seriously. His daughter had rarely been to the mountains since she was a child, so he just thought she was joking.

"We'll make some cold dishes later, and dry the rest. It'll be enough to make fried dumplings in the winter."

Ding Xiangzhi glanced at the purslane that was about to bubble up, and arranged the menu in a few words.

Lin Mu entered the house last and turned around to close the door as soon as he came in.

Lin Yongkang was confused. "What time does it close?"

Lin Jingshu anxiously asked her second brother to put down the backpack, and pulled away the wild vegetables on top to reveal the pheasant hidden inside. She whispered, "My second brother and I caught a pheasant."

Lin Yongkang looked at the pheasant hidden in the backpack, his eyes lit up, and he reached out to weigh it, "It's not light, Xiangzhi, sharpen our kitchen knife, I'll kill the chicken right away."

Ding Xiangzhi listened to his words and nodded with a smile, "I'll go right away. Fortunately, I waited for you to come back to kill the chicken. I didn't expect there would be such a surprise."

The chickens at home were laying eggs, and she was reluctant to kill them. However, she remembered that her daughter said she wanted to drink mushroom soup before leaving, and mushrooms were the perfect match with chicken.

Who would have thought that before she could give her daughter a surprise, her daughter gave her one first.

Ding Xiangzhi went to sharpen the knife happily.

"Dad and Mom, don't worry, there's still this."

Lin Jingshu took out the ginseng wrapped in lotus leaves.

"Oh my goodness." Ding Xiangzhi was shocked. "Is this ginseng?"

Lin Yongkang took a deep breath and said, "It's ginseng. Uncle Lao Gen also dug it up when he went up the mountain before, but it wasn't as big as this one."

"Jingshu, put your things away first."

Ding Xiangzhi was afraid that his clumsy hands might damage the ginseng, which would be a pity, but his daughter's hands were delicate, so he could hold it with confidence.

Lin Jingshu told her parents her idea, "I want to sell the ginseng. Do you agree?"

"Whatever we agree or disagree on, you're the one who has the final say."

Lin Yongkang also said, "Your mother is right."

Ginseng can be sold for a lot of money, which can be given to their daughter. They are not money-conscious people, so they would not take their daughter for money.

Ding Xiangzhi asked his second son to go with him, as he had gained a lot of experience in racing cars in the past two years.

Jingshu is well-behaved. If people think she is young and cheating others, they should look at the second brother first.

With the tall and strong man standing there, I don’t think they would dare to do that.

After the ginseng matter was arranged, the family continued to move.

Lin Jingshu went to the kitchen to get a bowl, put salt and water in it, and used it to hold the chicken blood later.

Lin Mu was not idle either. They dug a lot of wild vegetables and first took a bundle to feed the chickens at home to satisfy their cravings.

While killing the chicken, the brother and sister cleaned the mushrooms they had picked.

While washing, Lin Jingshu had already thought about how to eat it: stew half with chicken and use the other half to make chicken mushroom oil.

[Host, please stop talking. I'm already starving.]

"Don't you need to eat? Don't try that."

The system chuckled, "This is an exaggeration to show how much I'm really looking forward to the food!"

[Please beg me, I'll force you to smell it later.]

Please!

The system blurted out without any dignity, fearing that she would regret it the next second.

Lin Jingshu: ...It’s not easy to be a foodie.

Although she complained in her heart, Lin Jingshu still let the system run when the food was ready while no one was paying attention.

The little guy didn't need her to say much. He took the initiative to transform into a virtual form and circled around the pot, looking very satisfied.

If Lin Jingshu hadn't been watching, the little guy would even want to jump in and have a couple of sips.

【system! 】

The little fellow, having had enough of the smell, finally let go and disappeared in a flash.
