Chapter 38 Xia Xia Is Mine Alone

When the picking was almost done, Xu Banxia dug up the whole mulberry tree, planning to take it home and plant it.

After digging it out, she walked around the area, picked some herbs, and carried the mulberry tree back.

When Xu Banxia returned home, he washed the picked mulberries and gave them to his family.

"Mother, try it, this is sweet and delicious." Xu Banxia handed the mulberries in the bowl to Qin Shi, and then looked at Liu Dashan. "Father, let's try it together."

Seeing the red-blackened little fruit, Qin hesitated, and didn't reach out to take it. "Ban Xia, what is this? Can you eat it? Where did you get it?"

Liu Dashan echoed Qin's words. "Yes, Pinellia, can this be eaten? Will it be poisonous?"

Xu Banxia smiled and said: "Don't worry, parents, if it is poisonous, how can I give it to you to eat? The name of this wild fruit is mulberry. It is not poisonous and delicious. If you don't believe me, try it. I gave it back to you before." Wenxiu has eaten it, Wenxiu has eaten it once, and he likes it."

Qin hesitated for a moment, then picked up one and ate it into his mouth.

"It's really sweet."

"That's right, I didn't lie to you." Xu Banxia chuckled, revealing a row of white teeth.

Xu Banxia looked at Liu Dashan again. "Father, you should try it too."

Liu Dashan waved his hand, shook his head and refused. "It's inappropriate for me, a big man, to eat this. Ban Xia and your mother should eat it."

"Try it, Dad. If you don't like it, I won't force you." Xu Banxia insisted on letting Liu Dashan taste it.

Reluctantly, Liu Dashan picked it up and tasted it. "It's really sweet."

"Then you and mother will bring it to eat." Xu Banxia directly put the bowl on the small wooden table in the yard.

Suddenly thought of something, Xu Banxia asked: "Father, where did Wenxiu go?"

"He's gone to the latrine, he should be out soon." Qin answered Xu Banxia's words.

"I just said why I didn't see him when I came back." Xu Banxia nodded clearly.

As soon as the voice fell, Liu Wenxiu appeared in the yard. The moment he saw Xu Banxia, ​​Liu Wenxiu flew over directly. "Xia Xia, you are back, did you go to the mountain again?"

Liu Wenxiu ran to Xu Banxia's side and took her hand.

"Well, I went to the mountain to pick some wild fruit for Wenxiu, the one you ate last time."

Liu Wenxiu's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Where is where?"

"I put it on the table, you and your parents can eat together, I'm going to plant trees." Xu Banxia patted Liu Wenxiu's head.

"Plant trees? Why plant trees?" Liu Wenxiu was not in a hurry to eat, but asked Ban Xia curiously.

"Plant a tree that bears mulberries, so that every year when the season comes, you will have mulberries to eat."

Hearing this, Liu Wenxiu jumped up happily. "Great! Great! I can eat mulberries every year!"

When Liu Dashan heard Banxia said that he wanted to plant a tree, he asked her: "Banxia, ​​where do you plan to plant this tree?"

"It's at the foot of the mountain connected to our house, so it won't take up space." Xu Banxia pointed not far away.

Liu Dashan looked in the direction pointed by Banxia, ​​"It's quite suitable there."

The Qin family also felt that the location at the foot of the mountain was good. "I think it can."

Liu Dashan grabbed a little mulberry and threw it into his mouth, went to the shed to get a hoe and walked towards the foot of the mountain. "Anyway, I have nothing to do right now, so I'll dig a hole for Pinellia."

"Then I'm going to trouble Dad." With Liu Dad's help, she didn't have to spend so much effort digging a hole.

"It's all a family, so say what's troublesome or not."

"Father said so." Xu Banxia echoed with a smile.

With Liu Dashan's help, Xu Banxia quickly planted the mulberry tree.

In the past ten days, Ali has never been to the big house of the Liu family.

On this day, Xu Banxia went up the mountain and met Ali, borrowed a bow and arrow from him briefly, hunted a wild boar and returned it to him.

After all, Ali went to hunt a wild boar for their family before. When he was working for her family, he ate that wild boar for meat dishes. Later, because of rumors, Ali hadn’t been to their house for ten days, so he didn’t eat it. That wild boar.

That wild boar was eaten by their family, and she felt a little bit sorry, thinking that when she went up the mountain to hunt another wild boar back to Ali, she felt more at ease.

But she didn't want to meet Ali to hunt as soon as she went up the mountain today, so she borrowed his bow and arrow.

Originally Ali refused to accept the wild boar that Xu Banxia beat at first, but was "forced" by Xu Banxia to accept it.

As for how to force it, Xu Banxia just said simply: If you don't accept it, don't come to help our family with work.

In this way, Ali accepted it.

If he doesn't accept it, he won't be able to help the big house of the Liu family.

It also means that he can't go to Liu's house to "crash a meal" to eat.

Xu Banxia hunted a rabbit on the mountain and went back. She planned to take the rabbit back and stew it, and to give Qin Shi a boost.

After two or three days, Xu Banxia rented an ox cart from Cao Lizheng's family and went to the market.

This time when going to the market, Ban Xia called Ali and brought Liu Wenxiu with him, just to avoid unnecessary rumors.

Although she and Ali had nothing to do, it was inevitable that some people would gossip behind their backs. Bringing Liu Wenxiu should be able to stop those people's mouths.

Originally, Liu Wenxiu was very happy to go to the market with Xu Banxia, ​​but when he heard that Ali was also going, his little face immediately collapsed, and his expression was as smelly as it could be.

Xu Banxia looked at it and laughed outright. "Wenxiu, why are you angry?"

"Xia Xia, I don't want Ali to be with us." Now, Liu Wenxiu doesn't call Ali as brother Ali like before, but directly calls him Ali.

"Why?"

"Because... because he snatched Xia Xia from me before, but... Xia Xia belongs to me alone." Liu Wenxiu leaned closer to Xu Banxia's ear and replied. "I don't want Xia Xia to be taken away by Ali."

Xu Banxia: "..." What should she say?
After thinking about it for a while, Banxia said: "Wenxiu, in fact, Brother Ali never thought of robbing me from you, so don't be so hostile to him, Ali is very nice, how could he do it?" There is such a thing as robbing Xia Xia from you."

Liu Wenxiu snorted dissatisfied. "Xia Xia, am I not good?"

Xu Banxia: "..." Is Liu Wenxiu jealous?
Just because she said that Ali and others are very nice, and then... jealous?
"Xia Xia, do you think I'm bad?" Liu Wenxiu asked her in a weary tone seeing that Ban Xia had been silent for a long time.

"Wenxiu is very good, very obedient." Xu Banxia patted Liu Wenxiu's head and replied seriously.

"Xia Xia praised me." Liu Wenxiu laughed immediately, as happy as eating honey.
