Mother Sun took the other half of the flower package from Sun Ye. The wrapper was rolled out very thin, and it was filled with roses, which had an indescribable fragrance and a hint of sweetness.
Sun Ye quickly finished his portion. The fragrance lingered on his lips and teeth, and penetrated into his heart. It seemed that every breath he took was filled with the aroma.
The buns in the steamer were emitting billowing white smoke and steam. Sun's mother asked Sun Ye to take a clean bamboo basket and filled it almost halfway for her. It was still a bit heavy.
Sun Ye took a deep breath and carried the basket to the educated youth point. He was not yet overwhelmed by the delicious food. He remembered that the original intention of making flower bags was to divert the teacher's attention and prevent him from being immersed in the disaster.
The sun has set and it is dark. There is no moon tonight, which is rare, but the sky is full of stars twinkling in the night. Scattered voices can be heard in the village, mixed with the barking of dogs. The harvest is getting better and better, and wealthy families are raising small animals such as cats and dogs, which are very popular with children.
Sun Ye is pretty average about cats and dogs. He’s not as fanatical as other kids. He doesn’t hate them, but he doesn’t like them either.
The annoying chirping of cicadas during the day has finally stopped, replaced by the music of unknown insects, which continues all day long.
Sun Ye was walking briskly along the country path, carrying a bamboo basket in his hand. He was wearing straw sandals woven by his father, so the weeds on the roadside brushed against his feet from time to time. The night breeze blew, and Sun Ye felt a unique sensation being in it.
We arrived at the educated youth site smoothly. The educated youth site had lit the lights. There were not many households lighting lights at that time, and the educated youth site was counted as one of them.
The courtyard door was half-open, and Sun Ye pushed it open gently. Everyone was enjoying the cool air and chatting in the courtyard. Sun Ye stepped in, and seeing everyone looking at him, he smiled, walked to the stone table, and put down the basket in his arms.
When the cloth was lifted, the plump white buns were revealed, and a fragrance instantly filled the air.
Sun Ye smiled and said, "I saw the roses blooming in profusion on the back of the hillside. I thought it would be a shame if they fell to the ground, so I decided to make the most of them. Wouldn't it be wonderful to pick some and eat them? I happened to read about a local snack in the book my teacher gave me."
"So, I asked my mom to make it for me. I originally wanted to make flower cakes, but I couldn't remember the exact steps. I figured since we're all going to eat it anyway, why not just make them into flower buns?"
"Grandma Guo, Grandma Lin, please try it and see how it tastes. Is it delicious?"
After listening to what Sun Ye said, everyone was already drooling. Lin Qianjin was the fastest. He grabbed one and broke it open to take a look. Hey, it really was filled with flowers.
He put it in his mouth and chewed it a little faster. He couldn't help but give Sun Ye a thumbs up, swallowed the food and said:
"Ye Zi, how come you're such a good eater? This is definitely one of the best buns I've ever had, so fresh and fragrant!"
Sun Ye smiled shyly and pushed the basket closer to the teacher and the others, "Teacher, try it quickly."
Grandma Lin nodded as she ate. The idea was novel, the skin was chewy, and the cooking skills were good.
"Sister-in-law Sun's cooking skills are really good. Let's get some food someday when we have time."
"This is a good feeling."
“…”
Seeing that everyone was satisfied, Sun Ye's smile became even sweeter. When he heard that Grandma Lin and the others wanted to make this flower bag, he said:
"Grandma Lin, Grandma Guo, there are so many flowers on the hillside behind. If you want to make some someday, please let Brother Lin know and I'll pick them for you."
"Okay, okay."
"Come on, eat the leaves too. Don't just watch us eat."
Grandma Guo picked up a flower bag and handed it to Sun Ye. Sun Ye waved her hand, stepped back a few steps, and said, "Grandma Guo, there are still some at home. Are you worried that I won't have any to eat? Grandma, you guys have your meal."
"You kid..." Grandma Guo glared at Sun Ye, looking at her helpless look.
Sun Ye just smiled and stood quietly aside.
Professor Liu ate one bun and stopped eating because he really didn't have enough stomach to fill up. He had already eaten dinner, and he would be full after eating another bun. He also had to walk around to digest the food so that he could fall asleep and sleep soundly later.
Professor Liu stood up, called his two old friends who had finished their meal, and went out for a walk.
Of the fifteen buns brought, Lin Qianjin ate three by himself, and the others only ate one and then stopped. There were four left, which Grandma Lin put in the kitchen.
Sun Ye pretended to be casual and asked, "Grandma Lin, when are you leaving the Forward Brigade?"
"Who told you we were leaving the team?"
"Ah, you're not leaving? But..."
"If I don't leave, where else can I go? Qianjin Brigade is great, with beautiful scenery and green mountains. Most importantly, we have such a lovely Ye Zi here. That's why Grandma Lin is reluctant to leave."
Sun Ye lowered his head and said, "Grandma Lin, you just like to make fun of me."
Sun Ye wanted to ask why the teacher seemed unhappy recently and why everyone was in a low mood.
But after thinking about it, she decided to give up. It would be better for her to know from the teacher.
"Didn't Xiaolin tell you he was leaving? He's a bit of a jerk. He knew he made a mistake and was unhappy for quite a while."
Fortunately, Lin Qianjin is not standing here at the moment, otherwise he would be so embarrassed and his face would definitely turn red.
“…”
Sun Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Grandma Guo had just freed up the basket, so Sun Ye took it and said goodbye to them: "Grandma Guo, Grandma Lin, I'm leaving first."
"Hey, go slowly and watch your step."
"Okay, I know."
"Goodbye, Grandma Guo, Grandma Lin."
"Um."
Sun Ye swung the basket, feeling indescribably happy. He wanted to shout loudly, jumping up and down, throwing the basket into the air from time to time and catching it with both hands, as if only in this way could he vent the excitement in his heart.
Unexpectedly, she swung the basket with too much force, and the basket was thrown down the slope, rolling several times and getting farther away.
Sun Ye was helpless and just watched the basket go away from her. She puffed up her face and fanned herself with her hands to calm down, and finally it stopped.
She didn't want to walk down to the bottom, as it was a long way around. She looked down and saw the step wasn't too high. She looked around and saw no one was around. She gathered her strength, leaped, and landed safely. Her feet hurt a little when she landed, but it was bearable.
Sun Ye picked up the basket, casually patted the dust off the bottom, and took a long detour to go home. He had to walk the same route again, although it was not a long distance, but he felt inexplicably unhappy.
You have to bear the consequences of your own sins.
Now I have learned my lesson, my heart is at peace, and I can finally walk properly.
After walking a few steps, he saw Lin Qianjin and Guo Jianwu arm in arm in front of him. They seemed to be talking about something funny, which made Guo Jianwu pat Lin Qianjin on the head.
"Brother Lin, Brother Jianwu."
"Ye Zi, go home."
"Yes."
"Go back quickly."
Sun Ye couldn't believe that these words would come out of Lin Qian's mouth, and couldn't help but look at Lin Qianjin a few more times. Could it be that excessive disappointment caused mental disorder?
If it were the usual, they would probably be smiling and talking nonsense, not being so serious.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Qianjin got goose bumps on his arms because of Sun Ye's weird gaze. He rubbed them hard but couldn't hold them back, so he screamed.
"Normal people use their eyes to look at abnormal people."
Sun Ye was talking nonsense in a serious tone, and this answer made Lin Qian so angry that he jumped up and down.
"Ye Zi, let's talk about what an abnormal person is. Your brother Lin is incredibly normal."
Seeing Lin Qianjin return to his usual behavior, Sun Ye waved his hands mysteriously and said, "I know, I know, Brother Lin is perfectly normal."
The tone and expression were definitely sarcasm, just like coaxing a seven-year-old child.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going home. Goodbye. See you tomorrow."
Sun Ye walked around the two men and started running slowly, unable to stop laughing. Brother Lin was indeed a nice and funny person.
Lin Qianjin's unconvinced voice could be faintly heard from behind, as if he was telling Guo Jianwu that there was nothing wrong with him, and the problem was with Sun Ye.
Guo Jianwu ignored him directly. He was already an adult, but he was still fussing with a little girl. He couldn't even tell that Sun Ye was joking with him. He was getting worse and worse. It would be better to say "绖ing交钤幸妮幕"
Sun Ye ran into his mother at the door. His mother had just returned from delivering a package of flowers to the old house.
When the two returned home, Sun's father had not come back yet and no one knew where he had visited.
"Day after day, he would disappear after finishing his meal. I couldn't find him when I wanted to ask him to do anything."
Sun Ye heard his mother closing the gate behind him, muttering to herself, and asked:
"Mom, what do you want to see my dad for?"
"Nothing, go eat the buns. Don't leave any for him."
"oh."
Sun Ye was silent for a moment. It was Sun's mother who was hard on the outside but soft on the inside. It would be strange if she didn't leave some delicious food for Sun's father. He could just listen to her words and not take them seriously. If she really ate all the fresh flower packets, she would be criticized.
Sun Ye’s stomach wasn’t big enough to eat them all, so there were still seven or eight left. He could only eat four at most, no more.
"Mom, can we make some more sometime? Let's give some to my older brothers too. They don't have enough to eat at school."
"Okay, Mom will make some more the day before the market."
"Are there any Fuqiang fans in our family?"
"No more, only enough for next time. This stuff is not durable. If you had more, I would be willing to make you fresh flower buns every day."
"Don't worry, Mom. I'll make sure our family has fine grains every day. You can have as much Fuqiang flour as you want."
Sun's mother just thought that Sun Ye was talking and didn't realize the determination in his words at all.
"Okay, our Ye Zi is the most filial, mom is waiting."
Sun Ye nodded, took another bite of the bun in her hand, tore off half and handed it to her mother. The mother and daughter laughed as they ate.
There was nothing to do when it got dark, so the mother and daughter chatted in the yard. However, they couldn't chat for long because the mosquitoes were so ferocious that they kept biting Sun Ye.
The mugwort leaves that Sun's father had chopped for mosquito repellent were all burned last night. I thought I would ask him to go and chop some more after dinner, but he disappeared as soon as he left and hasn't come back yet.
Sun Ye couldn't stand it anymore, so she went back to the house first and hid in the tent. What kind of physique is this that attracts mosquitoes? Could it be that her blood is more fragrant?
With this question in mind, Sun Ye slowly fell asleep. When he woke up tomorrow, it would be another beautiful day.
