Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 119 Close the door
On December 25, Yang's restaurant in Heishan Town.

Yuan Shi got up early in the morning, and moved the things he packed up yesterday to the bullock cart with Yang Weibo. Yang Chunming picked out the books he put in the study that he needed to review, and then put them in the bookcase and took them back to the Yang family. , and the rest were locked in the cabinet by him. Yang Chunming was afraid that during his absence, the paper would be covered with dust and it would be difficult to clean.

Chunqiu was called up, yesterday was too tired, and there was a lot of work, Chunqiu slept a bit late, when Yuan pushed the door and entered, Chunqiu was lying on the bed wrapped in a quilt, sleeping sweetly, and there was still lingering in the air. The smell of some charcoal ashes, Yuan Shi first moved out the charcoal that had been burnt in the charcoal basin, then closed the small opening by the window, rubbed his numb fingers from the cold, and watched his face flushed from sleep Yuan's daughter, Yuan Shi put her fingers into Chunqiu's bed with a smirk.

Chunqiu was sound asleep, wrapped in a big quilt outside and wearing unlined clothing inside.

The body was suddenly touched by a big ice cube, that kind of cold temperature swept the whole body in an instant, and the upright body was curled up like a spring and autumn conditioned reflex, and then reached out and grabbed Yuan's troublesome hand tightly. , closed his eyes, and muttered reluctantly, "Mother, I'm still sleepy." After saying this, Chunqiu put Yuan Shi under the quilt again and threw out his somewhat warm hands, and then threw the quilt away. Wrapped directly on the body, turned over and fell asleep again.

Seeing that her daughter was still awake, Yuan Shi shook her head amusedly, then stretched out her hand to push Chunqiu, who was wrapped in a silkworm chrysalis, and said softly, "Niu Niu, get up, we are going home today." After Yuan Shi finished speaking, she stretched her hand back Looking at the girl who turned her head back to sleep in front of her, she bent down and blew into Chunqiu's exposed little ears first, then woke her up softly.

"Mother," Chunqiu said in a sullen tone, and covered the quilt directly over her head, "I'll get up in a moment, mother, hurry up and get busy."

Looking at the girl who was playing a rascal with her eyes closed, Yuan raised her eyebrows, "Really? Mother is done with work, Niuniu, grandma is still waiting for you at home, hurry up"

"...I know" Chunqiu finished in a buzzing voice, and then sat up from the bed with a bang.

Looking at her mother with blurred eyes, Chunqiu felt aggrieved, she had too much fun yesterday and got up too early today, she was unhappy.

"Oh, dear girl, don't cry, don't cry, let's go home soon, look at the house, grandma, grandpa, and sister Chunhua, aren't they all waiting for you to come home?" Yuan Shi Seeing that her daughter was about to cry, she hurriedly sat beside Chunqiu, wrapped the quilt beside her again, then stretched out her hand to pat Chunqiu's back, comforting her softly and gently.

Listening to her mother's consolation, Chunqiu's waking up has eased a bit, at least she is leaning on her mother's arms now, and has no thoughts of crying. Chunqiu has been in ancient times for almost a year, and Yuan's habit of waking up is getting more and more angry The more serious it is, and Yuan Shi also loves her daughter, and she will coax her every time she yells, which makes Chunqiu get up more and more angry now, and she will howl if there is something wrong.

After comforting her daughter, Yuan Shi put on the clothes on the side for Chunqiu again, and then went out to the next door to call Huzi up.

Different from the gentleness of a daughter, Yuan Shi is merciless towards her son. After Yuan Shi entered the house, she also moved the charcoal basin out first, and then... Yuan Shi directly lifted the quilt of the tiger, and put the whole tiger Everyone was exposed to the cold air, and after a while, the tiger woke up.

"Are you awake? Get up quickly and put on your clothes. We should go home later." Seeing that her son woke up, Yuan Shi threw aside the quilt she was carrying in her hand, and then roughly handed over the clothes beside her to him. After leaving Huzi, Huzi took the clothes and put them on directly, "Mother, where is the third sister?" Huzi still remembered the unfinished game with Chunqiu yesterday, and immediately asked about it immediately after waking up. Spring and Autumn.

"The next door is getting dressed, hurry up, there is no food in the house, we will eat when we go back," Yuan Shi said casually, then turned her head and went to Yang Chunming's room. Be careful with your son.

"Dong dong dong, brother Ming, brother Ming" Yuan Shi stood at the door of the study, opened his mouth to speak, and white breath came out of his mouth. He rubbed the back of his hand that was a little numb, and then knocked again.

"Mother? What's the matter?" Yang Chunming opened the door and directly welcomed Yuan Shi in. After entering the room, Yang Chunming noticed that her mother was radiating cold air, so he moved the still warm charcoal basin to Yuan Shi's feet. Mom, sit down first"

"It's okay, don't be busy." Yuan waved her hand directly, and then said to Yang Chunming, "Brother Ming, mother is here to tell you something."

"Huh? What's the matter, mother?" Yang Chunming asked back.

"It's about Brother Jun before. I don't know if your aunt found her nephew when she went to see Brother Jun." Yuan's words sounded a little worried about his uncle's taste. Mother's words turned around in her heart, and then she said to Yuan Shi with a gentle face, "Mother, I think my uncle knows about this matter."

"Mother, when my aunt came over, my son happened to be studying in school, so I met him, and after my aunt left, my son found that the elder brother and his cousin were not as inseparable as before. Moreover, this For half a month, my eldest brother has also worked harder in his studies than before."

After listening to Yang Chunming's words, Yuan Shi let go of the faint unease in her heart. If the sister-in-law knew about this, then she would be right for her. If something happened to Yang Chunming in the future, Yuan Shi would not have a conscience. disturbed.

The food shops on both sides of the alley were almost closed. Except for those who lived in Heishan Town, the others had already gone home for the New Year. When Chunqiu left, he made a special trip to the herbal cottage to bid farewell to Brother Dabao.

It was cold in winter, especially when there was no place on the ox cart to shelter from the cold wind. Yuan felt sorry for the child, and piled up all the things to be taken back in front, and then walked on the ox cart with a thick layer of blankets. Yang Weibo Driving in the front, Yuan Shi and Yang Chunming sat in the back, helping each other with each other, Chunqiu huddled in her mother's arms, although his face was hurt by the cold wind, but Chunqiu's heart was warm, the ox cart drove Slow down, when encountering stones on the road, they would sway from time to time, Chunqiu fixed his head directly on Yuan Shi's shoulder, then stretched out his arms and hugged Yuan Shi's waist tightly, turned his head and buried his face in Yuan Shi's chest.

"Niu Niu, put your hands in, it's cold outside." Yuan Shi hugged Chun Qiu tightly in her arms, and then glanced at Chun Qiu's little hand on her waist from the corner of her eye, it was already red from the cold, Yuan Shi looked distressed , bowed his head and whispered to Chunqiu in his arms.

"Hey..." Chunqiu slowly retracted his hand, and then directly grabbed the clothes on Yuan's chest.

Yuan Shi looked down, didn't say anything, just hugged her, Chunqiu felt sleepy in Yuan Shi's arms, woke up early in the morning, but when she just wanted to sleep, Yuan Shi would wake her up .

"Niuniu, wake up"

"Mother, are you home?" Chunqiu's voice was low and hoarse.

Yuan looked down at the back of her little head, and said with a smile, "No."

"Hey, Niuniu, don't fall asleep, the road is very windy, it's not good if you catch a cold." While talking, Yuan Shi moved her body to make Chunqiu lie more comfortable.

"Mother, I know." Chunqiu's voice was small, Confucian, and he buried his head in Yuan's arms, not knowing what was going on in his heart, whether he listened to what Yuan said.

Seeing that she couldn't do it, Yuan was worried what would happen if her daughter really fell asleep, "Niuniu, get up and look around, where is this?" He cried out, and then stretched out his finger to point to the surrounding environment, obviously wanting to divert Chunqiu's attention.

Knowing what her mother meant, Chunqiu raised his head directly from Yuan Shi's arms, shook his somewhat confused head, stared at the surroundings quickly with eyes that hadn't been fully opened, and then moved again at a faster speed than before. Lie back, "Mother, this is Montenegro." Isn't that endless, steep and upright mountain the same as the Montenegro not far from the entrance of their village?Every time on the way back to Yangjiacun, Chunqiu would see Montenegro.

"Hehe, Niuniu, we have seen Montenegro, we are not far from Yangjia Village, wake up soon." Yuan Shi was amused by Chunqiu's series of small movements, and Yang Chunming beside him was also very happy.

"Get up quickly, mother's arms are sore, but I can't hold Niu Niu." After Yuan Shi joked, Chunqiu got up from Yuan Shi's arms, and then smiled at Yuan Shi like a dog, " Mother, Niuniu rubs for you"

After Chunqiu finished speaking, he pinched Yuan Shi's arm with his own little fleshy hands, but Chunqiu was small and weak, so he didn't pinch her mother's arm, but pinched the cotton padded jacket for a long time.

Yuan Shi laughed even louder, and stopped directly, "Oh, my mother's good girl, but don't pinch anymore."

Chunqiu also knew the embarrassing things she did, but she didn't blame her, who made her mother wear thick clothes? Chunqiu looked at her mother pitifully, then straightened up, and said with a sure face, "Mother, wait for Qiu When my son grows up, he can pinch his mother's arm."

"Then mother is waiting for Qiu'er." Yuan replied directly, and then pulled Chunqiu to sit down again, "Okay, don't move around, your father is driving, hurry up and sit down, and you can play when you get home "

Chunqiu also knew that his action of standing on the bullock cart was a bit dangerous, so he just followed Yuan's movement and sat down obediently, and then played the game that he had not finished yesterday with the tiger beside him.

The game the two of them play is simple, it's a game of playing back of the hand. If one party loses, they will be beaten on the back of the hand by the other, and they will not stop until they can't.

Chunqiu's mind is quick, and when playing with Huzi, she has already predicted what the other party will do, and then she will change her mind temporarily. In the end, Huzi lost a little unhappy, and the two ended the game.

Without the game, Chunqiu became a little bored again, but looking up at the Yangjia Village which was getting closer and closer, Chunqiu did not lie down again.
