evil little innocent baby

Chapter 120: The Unidentified Flame

"Hehehe, this young man is still sensible. My good granddaughter has found a good husband..." The old man was coaxed into laughing from ear to ear, revealing his dark red gums.

Hearing the title of good husband, Dai Yuxiao couldn't help but blush, lowered her head uncomfortably, and glanced at Mu Lengrui with reproachful eyes. On the contrary, this man winked at her provocatively, quite proudly.

"My dear granddaughter, grandma made you delicious food. I have been waiting for you to come back just now. Hurry up and eat in the house, otherwise it won't taste good when it gets cold..." The old man dragged Dai Yuxiao into the house tremblingly, There is an aluminum basin on the floor table, which is full of rice dumplings in a bamboo bucket, and the smell of glutinous rice fills the whole room.

"Ah, it smells so good!" Dai Yuxiao picked up one. The bamboo dumpling looked round. She clearly knew that the dumpling was inside the bamboo tube. She looked left and right, but she didn't know how to get the dumpling out.

"Hehehe, my good granddaughter must have never eaten this. This is something poor people love to eat, and children from rich people may not be able to eat it..." The old man smiled, picked up a zongzi, and used a pointed top to eat it. Hold the bottom of the bamboo tube with a pointed iron pestle, and lightly tap it with a small hammer on the side, and the bamboo tube will split into two halves, revealing the snow-white and glutinous rice dumplings inside.

Dai Yuxiao took it, and opened her mouth to bite it down. The scent of glutinous rice mixed with the fragrance of the bamboo tube, sticky but not greasy, really delicious.

The old man handed over a small bowl containing white sugar, and said with a smile, "It tastes better with some white sugar..."

Dai Yuxiao dipped some sugar tentatively, and took another bite. It was refreshingly sweet and palatable. While eating one, she took the other made by the old man with the other hand.

Mu Lengrui frowned as he watched her gorging herself left and right, why is this woman so gluttonous, she doesn't look like a rich lady, she looks like a country girl.

"Hey, pay attention to your image, look at your good looks! You don't look like a rich lady!" Mu Lengrui muttered dissatisfiedly, looking coldly at the glutinous rice particles sticking to the corners of her lips.

Dai Yuxiao hooked the tip of her red tongue, and the rice grains from the corner of her lips were hooked into her small mouth, and she smacked her lips to savor the aftertaste, with an expression of enjoyment: "It's really delicious, do you want to try one?"

She handed the other one to Mu Lengrui, pursed her red lips, and looked expectantly in her eyes.

Just now she had hooked Mu Lengrui so lightly with the tip of her tongue, and he had frowned, his heart fluttering. If there was no old man present, he would have kissed her directly, occupying such playful and delicate lips.

And the look in this little woman's lips pouting in anticipation is so cute and indescribable, this little woman is really a monster, every simple look and every movement reveals a deadly monster.

So much so that she held up the rice dumpling for a long time before Mu Lengrui came to his senses, took the bamboo stick that passed through the small rice dumpling with his big hand, dipped it in some sugar, and bit it down, it tasted really good.

"Grandma, does it take a long time to make rice dumplings like this?" Dai Yuxiao remembers that glutinous rice is difficult to cook, but in this small wooden house, it must be cooked with the most primitive stove firewood, which must take a lot of time.

"It's not long, it's only four or five hours..." The old man waved his hands again and again, saying that making this zongzi is just a trivial matter.

"Four or five hours? Then grandma, didn't you stay up in the middle of the night?" Dai Yuxiao remembered that it was just dawn when she and Mu Lengrui went out, and it was about five hours from now. It seems that the old man got up to make breakfast as soon as they left .

"My old woman, the older I get, the less I feel. It's not a problem, it's not a problem..." The old woman's eyes were narrowed, and she was naturally very happy to see the two young people who loved her bamboo-tube rice dumplings. No matter how hard it was, it was worth it.

Dai Yuxiao and Mu Lengrui chatted and laughed with the old man and ate several times in succession, but they left Shen Mengyuan with a bitter face aside, which didn't go well with the harmonious atmosphere.

Dai Yuxiao ate and ate, thinking of something: "Grandma, why don't we go down the mountain today? It's still early today, and the sun is so bright, what if it's cloudy and rainy tomorrow?"

"My good granddaughter is right, my old woman will clean up, and we will go down the mountain in a while..." The old man stood up tremblingly, and walked towards her hut with a limp.

"Mom, mom, why are you in such a hurry, I still have a lot of things to pack, and I won't be coming back after I leave..." Shen Mengyuan, who was silent at the side, immediately protested when he heard that they were about to leave.

"Yuan'er, what else do you need to pack? You are not as open as my old lady?" The old man was surprised.

"Yeah, the injury on your arm can only be treated in a small town. Don't you feel uncomfortable dragging a broken arm?" Dai Yuxiao glanced at his broken arm, also puzzled.

"My arm is not in the way, I can't die. There are so many snakes on the mountain at this time, we'd better set off tomorrow..." Shen Mengyuan held his injured arm, sweating profusely from the pain, but he gritted his teeth and said it was fine.

As soon as she heard that there were many snakes, Dai Yuxiao shut her mouth and said nothing. This mountain is good for everything, but there are too many poisonous snakes, so they have to be careful. Being bitten by a snake is a very scary thing. It is very reasonable to say that snakes have been afraid of well ropes for three years.

Mu Lengrui stared coldly at Shen Mengyuan, staring at him with a chill in his chest and back. Holding the injured arm, he walked out of the cabin with his head down, escaping from Mu Lengrui's cold vision.

"Are you full? If you're full, my old lady will take you out for a walk..." Although the old man's footsteps were unsteady, he was full of energy and radiant.

"Grandma, your crutches are gone, isn't it convenient to walk?" Dai Yuxiao was a little worried.

"It's okay, my old lady has legs and feet, and it's okay if she doesn't have a cane." The old man said, and staggered towards the outside of the cabin.

Don't look at her limping feet, her speed is not slow, Dai Yuxiao followed closely to catch up with this hale and hearty old man.

The old man went out of the hut and went around to the back of the hut, Dai Yuxiao and Leng Rui followed, not knowing what was behind the cabin.

"Granddaughter, look, these are all vegetables grown by my old woman!" The old man's mouth with bared teeth moved, and he walked back and forth in front of the vegetable field with his small withered hands showing off.

It was the first time for Dai Yuxiao and Mu Lengrui to see a lush green vegetable field. Fresh cucumbers with thorny flowers hanging on the vines, red tomatoes gleaming in the sun, and a unique fragrance of vegetable fields. Drill into the nostrils and whet the appetite.

"Grandma, are you growing these vegetables?" Dai Yuxiao's eyes widened in surprise. Grandma grows so many colors, so how long will it take to produce such abundant fruits?

"Yeah, my old lady doesn't have anything to do on weekdays, so I asked Yuan'er to bring vegetables back from the mountain, and it didn't take much effort to grow these vegetables, hehehehe... Do you like it? If you like it, go pick some Try it, it's absolutely natural green vegetables, it's good for beauty!" The old woman walked into the vegetable field tremblingly first.

Dai Yuxiao also wanted to go to the field, but in such a lush vegetable field, I don't know if there is a poisonous snake hidden, so she hesitated for a while and didn't dare to move. She opened her eyes wide and searched for suspicious movements in the green vegetable field.

"Good granddaughter, what's the matter? Don't you like the vegetables grown by the old woman?" The old man looked disappointed.

"Grandma, will there be poisonous snakes in this geography?" Dai Yuxiao asked with some embarrassment.

"Good granddaughter, are you worried about this? Look around the vegetable field..." The old woman smiled again. Her good granddaughter was worried about poisonous snakes, not because she didn't like the vegetables she planted, which made her very relieved.

Dai Yuxiao looked around the vegetable field, and was surrounded by a special jagged green plant. They saw many such plants along the way. What special function does this plant have? The old man actually planted a green plant around the vegetable field. lock up.

"This kind of grass is the nemesis of poisonous snakes. If you enclose the vegetable field, no poisonous snake will go in and steal my old woman's vegetables. Hehehehe..." The old man smiled, quite proud of her clever approach.

As soon as Dai Yuxiao heard that there were no snakes in the field, she stepped into the field, picked two tomatoes first, ran out to wash them by the stream, bit them down, and the sweet and sour poured in. Between the teeth and cheeks, it is sweet and delicious.

Mu Lengrui squatted down, picked a jagged leaf, pinched it between his fingers, and looked at it carefully. The fine jagged teeth of this leaf looked like shark teeth. When he sniffed it lightly, it smelled like musk.

When the three of them were going their own way, Shen Mengyuan's wretched figure peeked around the corner of the cabin for a moment, with a sinister smile on his face, while the few people didn't notice him, he hugged his injured arm and disappeared in a flash.

"Granddaughter, look in that direction...there is a small town..." The old lady stood on tiptoe, pointing her withered fingers into the distance. In the mist, there were looming buildings in that direction.

"Grandma, can we see the town from here? It took us two full days to find this place." Dai Yuxiao looked around, looking at the faint buildings, a little unbelievable.

"You are not familiar with the road in this mountain, it would be nice if you can find it in two days, hehehehe, in fact, my old woman takes this road to go back to the town for three hours, like you young people, maybe two hours can get there... "The old man pointed to the inconspicuous meandering path behind the cabin.

It is said to be a small road, but the grass is slightly sparsely trampled by people. Inexperienced people can't tell the difference unless they look carefully. No wonder they didn't find this road when they went up the mountain.

For lunch and dinner, the old man picked fresh vegetables from the geography and made several delicious side dishes for the two of them to eat heartily.

"Grandma, I'll take you to live in the city, and you'll cook delicious food for me every day, okay?" Dai Yuxiao acted like a baby while eating, her eyes full of innocent expectations.

"Good granddaughter, I'll make it for you in different ways, so that you don't repeat the same thing every day..." The old man smiled, scraping the tip of her nose with his dry fingers, loving her very much.

"You took grandma out to enjoy the blessings, not to serve you! You are really ignorant!" Mu Lengrui looked at the charming Dai Yuxiao coldly, and said dissatisfiedly, Dai Yuxiao felt ashamed when he said these words, and his face flushed instantly .

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem, my good granddaughter loves to eat the dishes I cook, and that's what makes me happy..." The old man's love for Dai Yuxiao is beyond words.

The corners of Dai Yuxiao's eyes moistened. Apart from grandma, who else could regard serving her food every day as a blessing?After going down the mountain, she must treat the old man well and let her spend her old age peacefully. Her mother in heaven must approve of her doing so.

The night is getting thicker and darker, the bright stars dotted the dark blue night sky, the moon is half-curved, hanging on the sky, like a handicraft crafted by ancient masters.

Shen Mengyuan was active and enthusiastic, voluntarily gave up the room, and randomly found a mat to lay on the ground outside the cabin.

Dai Yuxiao and Mu Lengrui lived in Shen Mengyuan's room at night. Originally, the old man wanted them to live in her room, but the two young people were worried that the old man would not get used to it, so they insisted on living in Shen Mengyuan's room.

While sleeping, Dai Yuxiao dissatisfied ### lowered her nose, and there came a scorched smell, so pungent.And in his consciousness, there seemed to be an unknown flame jumping.
