“Shh, don’t let them find out.” Shen Xinze whispered.
Yun Nuan covered her mouth quietly.
At this time, the door of the teaching office opened and Situ Yao walked out.
"Puchi Puchi..." Shen Xinze sent a "voice" to Situ Yao through the air.
She turned around and saw Yun Nuan and her little brother squatting in the corner of the corridor calling her.
Situ Yao walked over quickly, looking surprised: "Are you waiting for me?"
"Hmm!" Yun Nuan frowned as she looked at her slightly red and swollen face, pulling her arm as they walked downstairs. "Your face hurts, doesn't it? Let's go to the infirmary."
"Infirmary?" Situ Yao's pupils suddenly shrank, and she quickly shook her hands away, "No, no! I don't want to see a doctor! I'm most afraid of injections!"
“No need for an injection, just apply medicine, your face is swollen.” Shen Xinze pointed at her face and explained.
"You can apply a boiled egg to a swollen face. I used to fall and get bruised a lot in the countryside, and peeled eggs are the best solution."
She looked so cheerful, as if nothing unpleasant had happened just now.
Yun Nuan was worried.
She scratched her head and asked, "Where can I find eggs?"
"Oh, yes..." Situ Yao felt inexplicably depressed when she thought about going home. She was sure that Old Witch Cai would not let her apply eggs on her face.
She looked up to the sky and sighed, "Oh... This city isn't good at all. Even something as common as an egg is so hard to find. It's not like us in the countryside, where hens lay one a day and we use it as a facial mask without any regrets."
Shen Xinze was stunned: “Didn’t you just say that life in the city is much better than in the countryside?”
"What a twist!" Situ Yao rolled her eyes in a scoundrelly manner, "Of course, that was to deceive Director Qiu and Witch Cai!"
“???”
Neither Shen Xinze nor Yun Nuan had expected that she would not only dare to swear on campus, but also be so bold as to lie in front of the teacher.
Situ Yao disagreed.
Once she starts talking, she can't stop.
She put her hands behind her head and sighed as she walked down the stairs, "I miss life in the country so much! This city is really different from our countryside. It's so boring, with so many buildings everywhere. I want to go fishing, but there's no pond. I want to dig out bird nests, but there are few birds in the trees. I want to wash my feet in the creek, but the water in the ditch is green and smelly."
When Yun Nuan heard this, she felt the same way for a moment.
She also sighed: "I want to go back to the village too..."
When strawberry season comes, she loves to sit on the edge of the field and eat strawberries.
When the rice is ripe, she likes to go to the fields to help her neighbor grandma at the foot of the mountain pick rice ears.
She also climbed trees, robbed bird nests, and had picnics in the mountains with her friends.
If you see anything edible, pick it and eat it.
Once I ate poisonous mushrooms and had vomiting and diarrhea, which made my mother very worried.
Yun Nuan recalled her life in Huangni Village before she was five years old, and her longing for her mother became stronger again.
Because apart from the life in the countryside, most of the time is spent with my mother.
She taught her a lot of things. She didn't think it was a big deal before in the village, but when she came to the city, she found that it was not as difficult as she had imagined to adapt.
Perhaps from the very beginning, her mother knew that she would come to Beijing to live with her father and brothers.
"Are you from the country too?"
Situ Yao's words interrupted Yun Nuan's thoughts.
"Yes, my family used to live in Huangni Village."
Situ Yao laughed and made faces at Yun Nuan: "Hahaha, you are so fair and clean, not like yellow mud at all. Our place is called Tutian Village. Look at me, am I not earthy and sweet?"
Huangni Village, yellow mud.
Tutian Village, earthy and sweet.
Yun Nuan thought her words were very amusing and couldn't help but praise her, "You're so funny. I love listening to you talk."
Situ Yao was startled. Her cheerful expression suddenly fell and tears streamed down her face.
