Chapter 23 Contact



Sun Ye was exhausted along the way. He pretended to be tired, but he couldn't express this kind of suffering in words. It was clearly within his endurance range. The Sun family's genes were so strong that they made even an upright person start acting.

At the fork in the road, Sun Ye saw a petite figure from afar. When he got closer, he found that it was Sun Taohua, who had been stood up by them.

Sun Taohua ran over and helped Sun Ye hold up the bottom of the backpack. Sun Ye suddenly felt a huge pressure. It was tiring enough to load the backpack, and now she had to add weight. Isn't this making things difficult for her?

But looking at Sun Taohua's cautious look, she couldn't bear it. They had started it, so they had to finish it even if they had to kneel.

"Sun Ye, I'll carry it for you."

Sun Ye touched the tip of her nose and nodded helplessly. Why did you run away, Sun Miao? She couldn't feel warm about this scene.

When she got home and put the firewood in the shed, she looked at the person following her, stammering and not knowing what to say.

Sun Taohua lowered her head and tapped her toes at this time. This was her boldest move yet. All this was just because they agreed to be her friends.

Maybe others cannot understand how happy and excited she is, and she doesn’t need others to know. It is her own secret.

Sun Ye has always been taciturn in front of people he doesn't know well, a quiet little kid.

The two of them just stood there, neither of them knowing what to say.

Sun Ye scratched his head and said, "Have you eaten yet?"

After Sun Ye finished speaking, she wanted to slap herself. She had heard Sun Ma start her sentence like this so many times that she followed suit.

Sun Taohua looked at Sun Ye in surprise. Sun Ye was looking straight ahead with no focus in his eyes.

"I haven't eaten yet. My mom and the others haven't finished work yet."

"oh."

The whole day was filled with endless chatting. Sun Ye wished Sun Miao could come out and show off her social skills to make people laugh every minute.

“…”

"Ye Zi, why don't you come and wash your hands? What are you doing there?"

Sun Ma's voice rescued the two little girls. The moment they turned around, they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It was too suffocating.

Sun Ye was washing his hands slowly, while Sun Taohua was standing next to him watching, and she seemed to want to speak.

"Sun Ye, this water is black and yellow!"

“………”

Sun Ye looked at the water in the basin, took a deep breath, and wanted to say: It would be strange if the water was clear after I tied the branches for the whole afternoon.

"yes."

Sun Ye just replied dryly, then looked up and saw a few figures appearing on the road, and he felt happy.

Regardless of whether it was accurate or not, he hurriedly said, "Taohua, your mother and the others are back!"

"where?"

Sun Taohua looked around and saw a figure on the road. She said hesitantly to Sun Ye, "Sun Ye, I have to go home to do the laundry. Can I come see you tomorrow?"

"good."

Could Sun Ye say it was bad? No, she couldn't! She was the one who said one thing and meant another.

"Ye Zi, come and have dinner. After dinner, let's go to the river to wash clothes together."

Sun Ye was shocked. What a shitty fate! She hoped that Sun Taohua would have already washed herself when they got there.

Dinner was simple, sweet potato rice with dried vegetables, no oil or salt, and the taste was bland.

The whole family’s clothes filled a large basin. Sun Sen and his friends also wanted to go to the river to soak in the water, and the whole family went out.

This river flows out from the mountains and is very clear. As for its source, it is said to be a large pool in the mountains. It is very deep and even the swimming experts in the village dare not go there.

The old people in the village said that the pond was spiritual and that the three-year disaster was averted by the water. You could even hear singing and other things in the middle of the night.

When Sun Ye and the others arrived, there were already quite a few people beating clothes by the river.

"Mom Ye Zi, come here, there's room here."

In the distance, Aunt Sun waved hurriedly and pointed to a large stone slab beside her.

Sun Ye stood behind them. Her mother didn't really let her take a shower. She was worried that Sun Ye would be scared being alone at home, so she asked her to come and cool down.

"You brought Ye Zi. My Miao Miao asked her to look after her sister. If I had known earlier, I would have brought her along so the two sisters could keep each other company."

Mother Sun smiled but said nothing. She changed the subject and asked, "Why don't you see my second sister-in-law?"

"She..."

Speaking of this, Aunt Sun couldn't help laughing. She motioned for Sun's mother to prick up her ears and whispered something in her ear.

Mother Sun was obviously stunned, and then she laughed. She thought that someone this old was still so serious.

"What are you laughing at? Tell me what you are laughing at so I can have some fun."

An aunt held a basin of clothes and started washing them on the stone slab beside her without saying a word.

Mother Sun made up a random excuse to get away with it, and the group chatted while washing clothes, which was pretty quick.

While it was still light enough to see, Sun Ye lowered his head and looked for small stones on the river bank.

It was smooth and delicate, with different lines on it, and quite beautiful. She looked around early in the morning, but Sun Taohua was not among them. Maybe she had washed it at home, or maybe she had gone home early after washing.

After picking up enough stones, Sun Ye sat on a stone, took off his shoes, and slowly immersed his feet in the stream. The water surface swayed, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun.

Sun Ye lifted her feet slightly, and her round and cute little toes were close together, gently splashing the stream water. The crystal clear water droplets kissed the back of Sun Ye's feet and flowed into the stream.

Sun Ye bent down and rolled up his trouser legs to his knees, then slowly stood in the stream. The mud and sand in the stream were fine and did not prick his feet, but rather made him feel very comfortable.

No wonder Sun Sen and the others all wanted to soak in water. At home they just took a shower and washed, which was not as comfortable and happy as this.

"Ye Zi, be careful. I won't be responsible if you fall."

"Mom, I know."

Sun Ye and her daughter rushed home in the last bit of dusk, their shadows stretched out long.

Sun Ye jumped and chased his own shadow, having a lot of fun playing alone.

Time flies so fast. The summer vacation is over, I go to class, and the autumn harvest comes. Next, I help my second sister-in-law and fourth aunt build houses.

Sun Miao's house is not far from Sun Ye's house, with Sun Taohua's house in between. The three houses are in the same direction.

This is convenient for the three of them. With Sun Miao acting as a lubricant in the middle, Sun Ye and Sun Taohua are finally not so stiff. However, when Sun Miao is not around, the two are still a little unfamiliar. This is a great improvement compared to before. Sun Miao believes that she has made an indelible contribution and is the main contributor.

They are of the same age, so there is nothing wrong with playing together, but Sun Ye and Sun Miao have the best relationship.

On this day, the weather was as sunny as usual. Sun Miao's family was busy building their house. Sun Ersao's house was already built, and all they needed was to choose an auspicious day to move in. Of course, they would never talk about choosing a day openly. Due to taboos, they could only proceed quietly.

Sun Miao was entrusted with the important task of taking care of his younger sister by his aunt Sun Si.

Sun Miao brought his sister to Sun Ye's house to play. When he passed by Sun Taohua's house, he saw Sun Taohua at home and called her.

With her mother's permission, Sun Taohua went to Sun Ye's house with Sun Miao like a happy little deer.

Sun Ye is feeding the chickens alone at the moment. Taking care of the two chickens at home is the task given to Sun Ye by her mother. She doesn't need to do anything else, just make sure the chickens are well fed.

Sun Ye’s favorite thing is to pick up eggs. Ever since the chickens at home started laying eggs, she has been staring at the chickens’ butts every day. When she hears the chickens crowing, she runs faster than anyone else.

Sun Ye was tearing vegetable leaves. There was some tender grass at her feet that she had found herself, which the chickens liked to eat.

"Cluck, cluck, cluck!"

"Come and eat, eat your fill."

Sun Ye was muttering something, as if by reciting it, the chicken would lay eggs quickly.

"Leaf! Leaf!"

When Sun Ye heard Sun Miao's loud voice in the yard, he stopped tearing the leaves and picked them up and threw them all in.

He clapped his hands and answered loudly, "Sister Miaomiao, I'm in the chicken coop."

She followed them and saw two people teasing Sun He in the yard. She washed her hands first, wiped them clean, and gently touched little Sun He's face.

Now she finally understood why the old ladies in the village always touched her face when she was a child. It was because the touch was so comfortable, even better than a boiled egg.

"Ye Zi, how about we play sandbag throwing today?"

Sun Ye raised his eyebrows, pointed at Sun He, and said, "What about Xiao Xiao He?"

"That's easy. I'll just put her on the stool, and you can tie her up with a piece of cloth so she can't fall off. Then we can play with her and keep an eye on her."

Sun Ye was a little hesitant, but Sun Miao kept saying that it was okay. She had done the same thing in the old house and nothing happened.

Sun Taohua also wanted to say something but stopped herself, but she knew that once Sun Miao made up his mind, the more others tried to persuade her, the more excited she would become, so she just had to pay more attention.

Sun Ye went to her mother's room to get a piece of cloth. She didn't know what her mother was going to use it for, so she just took it out if it looked suitable.

After surrounding Xiao Xiaohe, they saw that Xiao Xiaohe was sitting obediently as Sun Miao had said. Her big grape-like eyes looked around curiously, and she didn't look like a little devil at all.

The three of them decided the winner by playing rock-paper-scissors. Sun Ye was the first to play, Sun Taohua was the second, and Sun Miao was the third. The loser would take the next turn.

Sun Ye has never lost in rock-paper-scissors. Playing games makes his body more flexible and he can perform various difficult moves.

Sun Miao and Sun Taohua didn't get a turn for a long time. Sun Miao's hands were sore from throwing until she couldn't hit the ball.

Sun Taohua threw the sandbag to her side, and Sun Ye dodged it with a split in the air, then put her hands on her hips and blew her bangs in a very handsome way. She was a master at playing games!

"Ye Zi, we won't play with people like you."

"How am I?"

"You, you are undefeated. This is too boring."

Sun Miao also knew that this excuse was lame, so he started to act like a spoiled child:

"Ye Zi, good Ye Zi, please let us play too. Can you bear to watch us suffer so much while you play alone?"

Sun Ye was swung back and forth by Sun Miao's hand. She enjoyed it for a moment and said softly, "Okay, just this time. Don't do it again next time."

Sun Miao nodded hurriedly and said, "We'll talk about the next thing next time. Let's just have fun this time."

Sun Ye walked over and took Sun Taohua's place, and Sun Taohua trotted to the middle position.

Well, Sun Taohua was hit after only three rounds. She really has no talent, but she looks very happy.

When it was Sun Miao's turn, who was addicted but not very good at it, he jumped and laughed, not forgetting to demonstrate to Sun Ye. He was really like a fool who started to act rashly as soon as he was given a little color.

Just as Sun Miao raised his eyebrows at Sun Ye, Sun Ye suddenly noticed from the corner of his eye that Xiao Xiaohe was about to fall to the ground headfirst, with only a little piece of cloth thinly blocking it.

Just now, in order to make the ground flat for jumping, and the chair was high, I kicked a lot of small stones under the chair. The ground was also rocky, so it would be terrible if I fell down.

Sun Ye was startled and she ran over with all her might, but she was really too far away. Sun Miao looked in the direction Sun Ye was looking, his heart stopped in fear and the smile on his face froze.

Too late...

In the dark, Sun Ye seemed to hear a "bang" and Sun Miao's eyes opened wide, full of fear.

"Xiao He!"

"ah!"

Fortunately.

Sun Taohua hugged him in the end, and she herself fell heavily to the ground, hitting her head on the chair.

She held Xiao Xiaohe, who was still laughing, and smiled at Sun Ye and the others, as if to say that everything was okay, but the big bump on her head was visibly and rapidly expanding.
