pastoral fragrance

Chapter 190
In April, it is the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies. The forest is full of greenery and vitality. Qiulin is jumping in front of it, picking a small flower to play with in his hand, and catching a dog's tail grass.Looking at the tall loquat tree not far away, it is covered with golden loquats, and Qiulin's eyes are full of hearts!

Looking back at Xia Yan who was a long way behind him, Qiu Lin jumped up and waved at him, "Brother Xia Yan, come quickly, look, there are so many loquats!"

Xia Yan looked at the girl who was jumping and urging her not far away with a smile, this girl, I was really afraid that she would sprain her feet by jumping and jumping like this!But Xia Yan's heart was full of sweetness when he saw that this girl seemed to have inexhaustible vitality. "Be careful, watch your feet..."

Before Xia Yan finished speaking, the little girl who was still bouncing over there suddenly frowned and let out a moan.The whole thin body fell to the ground.Seeing this, Xia Yan quickly ran over. "How is it? Are you injured?" Seeing the little guy grinning, Xia Yan felt distressed.He quickly reached out to lift Qiulin up from the grass, and glanced sharply at Qiulin's small arms and legs to see if he was injured.

Grinning his teeth, Qiulin crawled up from the grass, frowned and hugged his left foot with both hands, his eyes were watery, as if tears were about to burst out in the next moment.

Xia Yan noticed the movement of Qiulin hugging his feet, and cautiously poked his hands towards Qiulin's left foot. He turned the back of his foot over and saw that there were scratches on it, and the ankle was already red and swollen. The skin was scratched, and there was still some blood oozing from it.Such scratches are really painful.Seeing this, Xia Yan did not loosen his brows for a moment.

Xia Yan's probing caused Qiu Lin to shrink back like a conditioned reflex, and this shrinking just made Xia Yan's hand touch the wound, Qiu Lin grinned in pain, and tears fell down one by one.It hurts so much, Qiulin shed tears in a hopeless manner.Fortunately, this body is just an eight-year-old girl doll, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

Looking at Qiulin's pitiful appearance, Xia Yan's heart softened so much that he wiped away her tears and said distressedly: "Hold on, I'll help you see if you've been sprained." Feet?" If you get sprained, it will be bad, and I'm afraid you'll have to rest for a while to recover.

Qiu Lin endured the pain and nodded slightly at Xia Yan, then turned away from looking at his feet.She didn't want to stare at her bruised and bruised appearance, and feel creepy in her heart.It seemed as though the pain would be lessened by not staring at it.

Xia Yan looked at Qiu Lin's small appearance who turned his head aside out of fear of pain, and felt pity and love in his heart.Be as light as possible when you do it yourself.It seems that this little guy is very afraid of pain.

Xia Yan gently kneaded the injured part of Qiulin's instep, raised his eyes and saw Qiulin clenched his teeth, and asked, "Do you feel pain? Does it look like it hurts?" Xia Yan roughly knew it. Did Qiulin sprain her ankle? If she really sprained her ankle, she would have cried out a long time ago according to Qiulin's degree of fear of pain when he kneaded it just now.It doesn't appear to be sprained.

Qiulin shook his head, "It's the broken skin that hurts, but it doesn't hurt when you rub it." It seems that the ankle is not sprained.But the bruise was on the ankle, and the pain was stronger than anywhere else. She couldn't stand it alone. If she really sprained her foot, she didn't know what the pain would be like!

Qiulin looked at the small stone that was still stained with blood, and said angrily: "It's all this small stone, otherwise I wouldn't be able to wrestle. I hate it!" Qiulin frowned and stared at the stone fiercely. After a few glances, those angry and stern eyes wished to turn the little stone into ashes.

Xia Yan looked at Qiu Lin's petty temper, and seeing her puffy bun face, he thought it was very cute.A little blame said: "Didn't I just tell you to be careful? Now you have stumbled, I will help you sit on the stone slab first, and then I will go to bandage you with herbs earlier." After speaking, Xia Yan said Da Heng hugged the small Qiu Lin by the waist, and after looking around, he found a clean stone slab not far in front of him. Xia Yan carefully stepped on the knee-deep grass, walking steadily with every step.It didn't matter if he fell, but he would feel sorry for Qiulin who was picked up and fell to the ground.

Putting Qiulin on the big stone slab, Xia Yan began to look for the medicinal material that would stop bleeding and help scabs form here.Fortunately, this kind of medicinal material can be found everywhere in the mountains and forests, and it is not difficult to find.Soon I found a large bunch.

Put those herbs on top of a stone, find another stone, swing it up and throw it at the pile of herbs, and soon, green and green herbal juice will come out.Xia Yan held the juicy herbs in his palm, and came over to bandage Qiu Lin. "The injury is on the ankle, it may hurt a little bit, bear with it."

To put it bluntly, I blamed myself for not being good enough to take care of her, otherwise she wouldn't have been hurt.Seeing Qiulin's ankle injury, Xia Yan began to blame himself.

Qiulin hesitated for a moment, but nodded anyway. Although she was afraid of pain, she might get an infection if she didn't bandage it. Wouldn't it be more troublesome then?

Xia Yan applied the smashed grass to Qiulin's ankle little by little, with extreme care and conscientiousness, even so, Qiulin still clenched his teeth in pain.

As soon as the herbal medicine was applied, it felt hot on the scratched skin, just like eating Seven Sisters chili.But after a while, this feeling will fade away, leaving a little bit of coolness.

After applying the herbal medicine, Xia Yan tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of the long robe he was wearing without hesitation, and wrapped the herbal medicine around Qiu Lin's ankles, so that he didn't have to worry about the herbal medicine being spilled.

Xia Yan finished bandaging Qiulin, and told the little girl to stop crying out of pain, so she also sat on the boulder beside Qiulin.Seeing the little girl Qiulin looking helplessly at the loquat trees not far away, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it seems that the loquats are quite attractive to Qiulin.

"Does Qiulin want to eat loquats? You sit here, and I'll find a bamboo pole to pound loquats for you!" Xia Yan clapped his hands and stood up, then walked towards the loquat trees.He is not used to these wild people in the village, it is easy to go to the tree to pick fruit and fish in the water.What he can do is to find the bamboo pole to pick up the fruit, and then pick it up in the grass.

As soon as she heard that Xia Yan was going to beat loquats, Qiu Lin's mood quickly turned from cloudy to sunny, and her wrinkled face quickly smiled like a flower. "Hey, Brother Xia Yan, be careful, take my basket with you, it's just right for loquats!"

Xia Yan naturally obeyed Qiu Lin's words, and obediently carried the bamboo basket to the loquat tree.Hey, I really didn't expect that one day he would listen to someone like this.However, he was happy to listen to Qiulin's words.

Xia Yan is now 13 years old. After all, he is tall and has long hands. It is unambiguous to pick up the bamboo pole and hit the loquat. I saw that wherever the bamboo pole he holds in his hands sweeps, there will always be those yellow and orange loquats. Caused a commotion.Crackling, those ripe loquats just rolled down.It seemed to be rolling on the grass, and then lay there motionless.

Seeing those loquats crackling and falling down, Qiu Lin, who was watching from the sidelines, was so happy.If it wasn't for her own foot injury, she would definitely have to find a bamboo pole to pound loquats.Although the flesh of the loquat is sweet and juicy, it is delicious, but she also enjoys the process of beating the loquat.Isn't it a pleasant thing to watch the loquats falling in groups from the tree?

Qiu Lin thought happily, there are several loquat trees in this forest, if they were all harvested and made into rock sugar loquats, how many jars would be made!It seems that these few days have to quickly call the elder sister and the second brother to come and fight. If you are still too busy, let mother put aside the work at home and go to the woods to hunt loquats.

Hey, I accidentally injured my leg, and my mobility may be a little restricted for the next two days.

Xia Yan knocked down the loquats but was not in a hurry to pick them up. Hearing Qiulin's sigh, he thought that Qiulin wanted to eat the loquats, so he picked up the loquats on the ground and went to eat them. "Try it, it's yellow and orange, I think it's very ripe." Xia Yan also knows that Qiulin is a real foodie, and now that he sees this extremely colorful loquat, he probably won't be able to take his eyes off it for a long time. .

Qiu Lin was very grateful for Xia Yan's thoughtfulness.Qiu Lin cheerfully took the loquats from Xia Yan's hand, and put the ones he couldn't hold on the stone slab beside him. "Thank you, brother Xia Yan!" Ancient times are not comparable to modern times, and there are all kinds of fruits and everything.This loquat is considered a rare thing.It tastes sweet and suitable for all ages.

Qiulin grabbed a loquat, quickly peeled off the skin, and couldn't wait to take a bite, and the faint sweet taste filled his mouth.

"Sweet or not?" Seeing Qiu Lin enjoying himself, Xia Yan seemed to be very delicious.

Qiulin couldn't wait to peel off the second loquat, and nodded like a pounding garlic, "Sweet!" Qiulin showed a big smile. The finished loquat stretched out to Xia Yan, and said sweetly, "Brother Xia Yan, eat you, it's very sweet!"

Xia Yan is very satisfied with Qiu Lin's behavior, this little girl really makes him like it to the bottom of his heart.Lowering his head, let Qiulin personally feed the loquat into his mouth, Xia Yan suppressed the throbbing in his heart and slowly tasted the delicious food in his mouth.The taste is sweet, without even a trace of sourness, it seems to be overripe.After Xia Yan finished eating a loquat, he couldn't help saying: "Last time I heard someone say that your family makes rock sugar loquats, why don't we go back and make rock sugar loquats!" Xia Yan hasn't tasted that kind of loquat for a long time. It's delicious, I really miss it now.

Qiulin nodded generously, "Okay!" As soon as she became happy and excited, she forgot about her ankle injury, and wanted to stand up and play loquat with Xia Yan, only to find out after standing up for a while. Her ankle was injured, and she sat back down helplessly.Hey, it seems that she can't help much, the matter of beating loquats has to be done entirely by Brother Xia Yan.
