It's a new day again, year after year, day after day.
Sun Ye scored 100 points in both exams, so his mother decided to give him some rewards to motivate the two boys to be more motivated.
Sun Ye made a request: she wanted to go to the town to take a look.
Poor thing, she has been stuck in the Qianjin Brigade since she was born and has never been anywhere far away.
After a brief thought, Sun's mother agreed, but it had to be the next market day. The team would set a date for everyone to go together because there would be ox carts on that day. Otherwise, if they walked and bought things, they would not be able to return before midnight.
Sun Sen and Sun Lin also clamored to go, but were suppressed by their mother. This was exactly what their mother wanted, and she also promised that if the three siblings could score above 90 points in the next exam, they could have a wish.
Sun Sen thought quickly and blurted out: "Mom, next time I get above 90 points, my wish is that I can have ten wishes."
If you repeat the last wish and make ten more wishes, you will have countless wishes.
When Sun Ye heard this, he looked at Brother Sun and sighed: This guy is so quick-witted and cunning.
Sun's mother said with even more regret: "You are so naive! How could it not kill you?"
Sun Sen muttered, "There are more beautiful ones."
"Alright, alright, go away, go do what you need to do, don't hang around your mother, it's annoying."
Sun Ye went back to her room to change into some dirt-resistant clothes. She had made an appointment with Sun Miao to go to the mountain at the east end of the village to pick wild sweet potatoes.
Sun Ye ate it by chance once and started thinking about it, not caring about the scorching sun outside, thinking that maybe it would be healthier to bask in the sun.
Carrying a small basket, she went to the fork in the road to wait for Sun Miao. The sun was not very hot in the morning, but it was very strong at noon. She dared not go out at all, as her skin would be sunburned. Sun Ye still took good care of her skin.
"Leaf! Leaf..."
Sun Miao ran over with a basket, waving and shouting, as if afraid that Sun Ye couldn't see or hear him.
Sun Ye silently held his forehead. Sun Miao's deafening voice must have been heard by most of the village. Just then, a family opened the door and looked at Sun Ye. Sun Ye gave a helpless smile as a greeting.
Sun Ye also waved to Sun Miao, indicating that she saw her and there was no need to be so loud.
Unexpectedly, Sun Miao shouted even louder. Sun Ye put down her hands, lowered her head, and pretended that she was not the one shouting.
"Ye Zi, what are you looking at?" Sun Miao ran over and also looked down at the ground, but saw nothing.
"Look, there's gold on the ground!"
"Really? Where is the gold? Why can't I see it?" Sun Miao looked more carefully, but still found nothing.
"I was kidding." Sun Ye said.
"You dare to lie to me? Watch out!" Sun Miao said as he pulled the basket to his elbow and reached out to tickle Sun Ye.
Sun Ye ran away with a smile, and turned back to tease Sun Miao: "I lied to you."
"Stop!" Sun Miao yelled and chased after him.
The two of them laughed all the way, and anyone who heard them couldn't help but smile.
"We're here, we're here." Sun Ye took a breath, bent down and supported his knees. He was really tired.
"So tired!" Sun Miao also gasped.
The two of them laughed, looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing again.
"Who told you to chase me?" Sun Ye said unhappily.
"Why would I chase you if you don't run?"
"Why would I run if you didn't chase me?"
“………”
The two continued their meaningless conversation, the husband saying he was right and the wife saying she was right, and neither could convince the other.
"Okay, okay, do you still want to eat wild sweet potatoes?" Sun Ye took the lead in breaking the repetitive conversation.
Sun Ye squatted down, pulled apart the wild sweet potato leaves with one hand, and used his other hand to pick out a coin-sized wild sweet potato from the soil, wiped it clean, and put it in his mouth to eat.
You know what, it’s so sweet and delicious!
Sun Ye dug more vigorously, picking up piece after piece. He harvested quite a lot, filling half of the basket with round fruits.
While Sun Ye and Sun Miao were digging wild sweet potatoes, they found a patch of hairy grass, which was also delicious, so they picked it.
Tear open the leaves of the needle grass to reveal the core inside, which is white and tender. When you chew it, you can taste the fragrance of green grass. The taste is indescribable, but it tastes good anyway.
Seeing that the sun was getting hotter and hotter and they had almost finished picking the fruits, Sun Ye suggested going home.
Sun Miao took a reluctant look at the treasure land she had discovered, and walked away looking back every few steps.
Sun Ye was speechless. It was too dramatic. She found that the entire Sun family, from the old to the young, had more or less some kind of dramatic spirit. They would put on a show from time to time. The trait was too strong.
There were hardly any people on the street. Even the naughty boy wouldn't be out playing around, so the two of them were able to return home in peace.
When Sun Ye returned home, sweating profusely, he put the basket under the eaves, scooped a basin of water, and splashed it on his face with his hands. He felt much better. He held up his clothes with his hands, splashed water on his neck and chest, and he came back to life!
After this incident, Sun Ye decided never to go out in the hot sun again.
Sun Sen and Sun Lin heard the sound of water and came out to see who it was. When they saw that it was their little sister who had returned, they ran out.
Sun Ye looked at her two brothers running towards her, thinking they were there to comfort her. She was quite touched and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, the two men passed her and attacked the basket behind her with their fangs and claws.
Just... just pass her like that!
Turning around, she saw the two of them eating wild sweet potatoes, and she was so moved that she fed them to the dog.
"Little sister, come, eat too. It's delicious." Sun Lin, still unaware, invited Sun Ye to come and eat.
Sun Ye was stunned!
How could she not know that the fruit she picked herself was delicious? Would she have picked it if it wasn't delicious? That's outrageous!
Fortunately, Brother Sun was sensible and found one to stuff into Sun Ye's mouth. Sun Ye felt a little sweet and touched.
I'm so touched!
Sun Ye took back his thought from the previous second. This wild sweet potato was bitter when bitten, not sweet at all!
She quickly spat it out a few times, opened her mouth slightly, and just looked at Brother Sun. Was there any brotherly love left?
Seeing this, Sun Lin realized that Sun Ye had eaten something bad, and he laughed "Hahahahaha" without any concealment.
Sun Sen pursed his lips, looking as if he was about to smile but not quite, obviously trying to hold back a laugh, and handed Sun Ye another wild sweet potato.
Sun Ye was skeptical, took it tentatively and put it in his mouth. Hmm, this is sweet, it’s not bad.
The fruits looked fine when she picked them. There weren't so many bad ones. It was just that she was unlucky and only one out of ten thousand won.
Sun Ye also laughed.
When Sun's mother and father came out of the room and saw the children happy, they felt very happy and relieved.
"What are you laughing at? So happy?" asked Sun's mother.
"Mom, my brother gave me a rotten sweet potato, and my face was wrinkled with bitterness, like a little old man..." Sun Lin seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help laughing.
Sun Ye was stunned. Did she just make such an expression? That's not possible, right?
Sun Ye turned her gaze towards Brother Sun. She felt that she could still be saved. This couldn't be true. Could it be that her perfect and elegant image would be shattered like this?
Brother Sun nodded slowly under Sun Ye's gaze, and what I described was exactly the same.
Oh, God, destroy it!
Sun Ye grabbed four wild sweet potatoes in a lightning-fast manner and stuffed one into each of their mouths, muttering to himself, Forget it, forget it!
The four of them laughed so hard that they fell over, and the laughter got even louder!
Sun Ye hesitated. Was this considered entertaining her parents with colorful clothes?
The family shared the wild sweet potatoes, but the three children liked to eat the hairy grass and ate it all in one meal. After eating, Sun Sen and Sun Lin planned to pick it someday.
…………
Early in the morning, Sun Ye was dug out of bed by his mother. It was already dawn, probably around five o'clock.
After waking up Sun Ye, Sun's mother went to wash up and told Sun Ye to hurry up, otherwise he would not be able to catch up with the ox cart and would not get a good seat.
Why is it so early? With a silent wail, he climbed up. It was his own choice and he couldn't blame anyone.
After packing up, Mother Sun set off for the village entrance carrying a basket on her back.
People were arriving one after another, and the space on the ox cart was soon filled. Sun Ye was held on his mother's lap, and his body was stiff, not daring to move.
The driver was Sun Sanshan. He had two older brothers named Dashan and Ershan.
With just a shout from Master Sanshan, the ox cart started moving. There were quite a lot of people, so those who arrived late had to walk.
The dirt road was uneven and the car had no shock absorption effect, so it was bumpy and made people dizzy. Sun Ye was also convinced by the aunties and grandmas who were still talking, as if they were not bumping at all.
"Aunt San, why did you think of taking Ye Zi to town?"
This question really hit the nail on the head for Sun Ma, so she cleared her throat to make sure everyone could hear her:
"Well, she got two perfect scores on the exam, so I agreed to let her go to town. You know how hard it is to get a perfect score. Those two boys of mine never got a perfect score on the exam."
Note that the voice of "100 Points" is two tones higher.
"Who got a perfect score?"
"Who is so powerful?"
The aunties and grandmas in the car asked questions one after another.
"My Ye Zi got a perfect score on the first test!"
"Oh, Ye Zi is so smart. In the past, she would have definitely been the top female scholar."
"Are you educated? You're a female champion. Top champions are all men."
"I'm uneducated, are you educated?"
Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted, Sun's mother immediately said, "She's not going to be the top student. I just hope she finishes high school and finds a stable job in the city. I'll be content with that."
"That's right. It's hard to find a job in the city. People have passed down their jobs from generation to generation. How can it be the turn of us peasants like us?"
"We're hiring educated people. Do we want you, an illiterate person, to cause trouble?"
"Hey, are you still arguing with me?"
"I'm being pragmatic."
These two aunts hit it off as soon as they met. They seemed uncomfortable if they didn't say a few words. But their relationship became closer and closer, and it was strange that others could not interrupt them.
Along the way, Sun Ye listened to the two aunts chatting with each other, bursts of laughter broke out, and the long journey seemed to be much more pleasant.
Finally they arrived, and Sun Ye got off his mother's lap. The city was very different from the countryside.
The houses are all two-story, while those in the countryside are only one-story. Moreover, the pace in the city seems to be much faster, with people walking in a hurry and with serious faces.
Even the aunties in the village stopped talking loudly when they came here, and their laughter, anger and scolding were restrained.
As soon as Sun Ye got off the bus, he saw from afar a group of people rushing towards one direction. They were all young men with red armbands on their shoulders.
This scene looks very scary.
