037
After confirming the relationship, the two got closer.
When they don't need to go to work, Bai Xiaoxi and Liang Sheng either read books together, or go up the mountain together, and sometimes go to the commune by appointment.
Liang Sheng's medicinal herbs that he had picked up in the mountains were dried, so he brought his two younger brothers and went to the county town with Bai Xiaoxi.
Still starting before dawn, walking through the long yellow mud road between the fields and walking to the commune.
With two more people, there will be a lot more excitement. The two young people carry the baskets in front of them, talking non-stop, and occasionally turn around to say a few words to Liang Sheng and the others.
The main reason was to tell Liang Sheng that the two of them looked very slippery, but they were very cautious in front of Bai Xiaoxi. When they just said hello, they just said a word, and they blushed and stuttered.
Liang Sheng drove them to the front, so as not to get in the way.
"...Really, that fish was very big and taller than me. I remember it clearly. When I was only five years old, my dad sold the fish to let my brother go to study."
"Bragging, you said last time that you are as thick as your waist, but this time someone is taller. Will it be as big as a water tank next time?!"
"Who is bragging! Isn't that fish thick and long? If you don't believe me, ask Brother Sheng! Brother Sheng is a few years older than us, so he must have seen that fish."
"Brother Sheng, is he bragging, have you really seen it?"
Liang Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to this kind of nonsense, "A few of them are with you, remember to distinguish them clearly."
There were several people who went up the mountain together, but Liang Sheng only took two people to the county seat at most at a time, and they took care of other people's things and went back to count the money.
"It's clear," a young man shook the basket on his back, "it's all separated."
"By the way, Brother Sheng, didn't you let us look at Liang Zhiqiang that day? The cowardly disease hasn't healed yet, and many people have come to his house in the past few days. Last night, I saw the mother-in-law at the back of the mountain also coming. It's really strange. , if she doesn't go during the day, it's pitch-dark at night, and she's so old that she's not afraid of falling."
"I know, go your way."
The two young men turned around, and after a while they started chattering again.
"Who is the eldest mother?" Bai Xiaoxi asked Liang Sheng, it was really strange for an old man to go to the captain's house at night.
"She lives on the other side of Xiaoyangmeiling. She doesn't usually show up. You haven't seen her before." Liang Sheng looked at the two people in front of him. Seeing that they didn't pay attention, he continued, "She used to be a goddess."
The time when the youngest mother became a goddess will be pushed forward for about ten years. Later, when the "four olds" were "broken", she hardly came out. Now the younger generations of Yangmeiling don't know about this.
Bai Xiaoxi nodded, the goddess went to Liang Zhiqiang's house, it should be for the "dirty things" on him.
In fact, in her opinion, what kind of dirty things are, Liang Zhiqiang is too frightened, plus he catches a cold, and there is no good medicine, so he has repeated fever, and the villagers secretly spread it mysteriously.
When they got to the county seat by car, it was time for breakfast, Bai Xiaoxi and Liang Sheng looked at each other, and tacitly went to the breakfast shop last time to line up.
The two young people took out dry food from their arms and prepared to eat with the aroma wafting from the store.
Liang Sheng slapped them on the head, "I haven't come to line up yet."
"But... Brother Sheng, we don't have food stamps." The young man touched his head.
"I have a ticket, stop his nonsense." Liang Sheng was impatient, as if they said one more word, he was about to hit someone.
The young people lined up behind him, hehe smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Sheng!"
There was a clever one who also said, "Thank you Bai Zhiqing!"
The other listened and quickly followed.
Bai Xiaoxi smiled at them, and said, "This sugar cake is delicious, please try it later."
"Okay..." The two of them blushed.
Liang Sheng stared at them, feeling particularly annoying.
His younger brothers were thinking that when Brother Sheng and them came to the county town, they brought their own dry food, but now they come with Bai Zhiqing, but they ate in a restaurant. Having a partner is different.
It seems that they also have to work hard to make money, otherwise they will not be able to talk about their partners in the future.
Later, when they saw Bai Xiaoxi's food intake, the young people were startled and scared.
Can all girls eat like this
It seems that no matter how hard they try, they can't talk about objects!
After breakfast, Bai Xiaoxi went to the bookstore to buy books, and Liang Sheng and the three went to get things.
There were many people this time, and they didn't stay in the county for too long. They went back to the store to buy some things.
A few days later, a major incident occurred in Yangmeiling. The captain was dismissed because of feudal superstition.
People from the commune dug out a few talisman papers from his house, and the captain's wife was about to feed Liang Zhiqiang a drink of talisman water, and asked someone to catch him.
No matter how much the family cried and cried, the captain's position was changed to someone else.
The new team leader was promoted from the original team leader. He is honest and hardworking, and has always been kind. He has a good reputation among the villagers, and everyone obeys him.
Only a few people saw that something was wrong: how did the people of the commune know that the captain was superstitious? How could it be so coincidental? The new captain became the ultimate beneficiary. Is he really that honest
Bai Xiaoxi also looked at Liang Sheng suspiciously. In her intuition, Liang Sheng didn't like to do that kind of whistle-blowing thing, and he was more inclined to beat people directly.
But they only talked about the aunt a few days ago, and the captain had an accident right after, which was too coincidental.
Liang Sheng flipped through the book and said frankly, "It's not me."
They have a saying here, sue Xiao-like's son in life.
He doesn't do that.
However, he doesn't do it. Some people want to do it. Little Yang Meiling, how many people coveted the position of the captain. As long as they hear a little bit of wind, they dare to go out and pull people off their horses.
After the new team leader came up, it happened to be the season for harvesting potatoes. After harvesting the spring potatoes, another season of cabbage was to be planted. The people in Yangmeiling were really busy for a while.
In the blink of an eye, it was approaching May, and the bayberry on Xiaoyangmeiling was gradually dyed red, and the cheeks were like a girl, with pink in the white.
Bai Xiaoxi couldn't help picking one, his face tangled with sourness.
Liang Sheng didn't eat. Just looking at her expression, her mouth was saliva. "This local bayberry is delicious only when it's red and black. Come back after the Dragon Boat Festival."
"Woo..." Bai Xiaoxi opened her eyes, her eyes were full of tears, her teeth were almost sore, but she was still reluctant to spit out Yangmei.
Liang Sheng looked at her foggy eyes, coughed lightly, looked away, and quickly turned back, stretched out his hand uncomfortably, touched the top of her hair, and said, "Go back and eat candy."
After speaking, he took Bai Xiaoxi's hand and strode forward.
It seems that as long as he walks fast enough, no one will see his red ears.
The next afternoon, Bai Xiaoxi went to him to read a book.
Liang Sheng didn't know what he was busy with, and came out of the stove with a bottle of food in his hand.
"Canned bayberry?" Bai Xiaoxi was pleasantly surprised.
But she clearly remembered that what they bought back were only canned oranges, and even in the department store in the county town, it seemed that there was no canned bayberry for sale.
Liang Sheng put the bottle on the table, Bai Xiaoxi took a closer look, and found that the bayberry in it was not very mature, with a little white in the red, just like those on the mountain.
Only then did she realize that Liang Sheng picked fresh bayberry, made it into a can, and put it in an empty bottle.
Liang Sheng opened the bottle cap, handed her a spoon, waved his hand, and said indifferently, "The taste is average, just eat whatever you want."
However, when Bai Xiaoxi scooped a bayberry into his mouth, he stared at her face again.
With the sweet juice and bayberry entrance, Bai Xiaoxi suddenly rolled his eyes, "It's very sweet, not sour at all."
Liang Sheng curled the corners of his mouth, but he tensed up quickly, and said indifferently, "Just add sugar and boil it, anyone can do it."
Bai Xiaoxi said with a smile: "Even if others know it, it doesn't matter to me, and I don't eat what they make."
Liang Sheng wanted to keep his face straight, but he couldn't hold back, and showed a somewhat obvious smile, revealing his two tiger teeth.
"Let's eat together." Bai Xiaoxi handed the spoon to his mouth.
She used it before... Liang Sheng looked at her smiling face, all kinds of thoughts were running around in his head, he opened his mouth in a daze, and was fed by her.
After feeding him, Bai Xiaoxi scooped a spoon for himself, and the silver-white spoon disappeared between the red lips and the teeth...
Liang Sheng coughed several times as if he was choking, and stood up, "There is still something in the pot, I'll go take a look."
As soon as the voice fell, the person disappeared.
There was a sweet smell wafting out of the stove, and Bai Xiaoxi followed curiously.
The big pot on the stove was bubbling, and the water in the pot was about to dry up. Liang Sheng took a shovel and kept turning it to prevent the pot from burning.
"You move so fast." Bai Xiaoxi exclaimed.
Because she loves to eat, she has learned how to make candied bayberry. Fresh bayberry needs to be cooked first, and then pressed with a heavy object for at least a day and a night to squeeze out the water inside, and then boil it with white sugar until the water is completely dry. Done.
They were only on the mountain at noon yesterday, and the candied bayberry is almost ready this afternoon, which means that after they separated yesterday, Liang Sheng started making it right away. Maybe he even took the time to go to the commune to buy white sugar.
She stood by the stove and sniffed lightly. After being boiled, the bayberry in the pot showed a purple-red color, and each one was covered with crystal clear sugar liquid, which looked particularly attractive.
"What can I do?" she asked. If she had known in advance that Liang Sheng was doing this, she would have come earlier and could have helped a little.
Liang Sheng shook his head, "I'll be fine soon."
The juice had to be collected again, but seeing her bright eyes, Liang Sheng picked up a few bayberry and put them in the bowl, and handed them to her with a pair of chopsticks.
"Beware of the heat."
Bai Xiaoxi took one, put it to his mouth, and blew it. He didn't eat it, and instead fed it to him, "You've worked so hard, you must be the first to taste it."
He used all the spoons she had eaten just now, and now it's nothing.
Liang Sheng finished reciting in his heart, and ate the bayberry as if nothing had happened.
"Is it still hot?" Bai Xiaoxi asked him, seeing some pulp on the tip of the chopsticks, he subconsciously put it into his mouth and sucked it clean.
Liang Sheng: "..."
It wasn't hot, but it was a little irritated. His nose was itchy after eating it, probably because he wanted a nosebleed.
