Chapter 40

"Okay, then let's go and have a look."

Fang Youshun didn't think too much, seeing that Shen Yuxiu wanted it, he made a decision with a wave of his hand.

Along the way, this child is really obedient and sensible, which makes people feel distressed. No matter what crimes he suffers with his wife, he never cries or makes trouble. Nowadays, it is rare for the child to have what he wants, so there is nothing wrong with him.

Besides, they were digging wild vegetables and catching and selling fish along the way, so the money they brought was almost useless, it was just a stone, how much could it cost?

"But, it costs money, and you can buy a lot of food." Fang Youshun didn't care, but Shen Yuxiu did.

But that being said, anyone can clearly see her expectant little eyes.

"What's the matter, grandpa is willing to buy you such a good child as Xiaoxiu." Fang Youshun looked at her little face who was clearly rejecting but full of desire, and picked her up and put her on the tricycle in a funny way. The black boy said, "Come on, lead the way, let's go buy stones."

"Hey." When the black child heard this, he happily agreed and ran ahead to lead the way.

Under the leadership of Hei Zi, Fang Youshun found the team leader's house very quickly. When the team leader heard that he wanted to buy stones, he immediately took him to the team headquarters happily.

There are many such stones on a mountain here. People in the village usually get them to process some beads, buttons or pendants for sale. Nowadays, people’s lives are not very good. No one buys those things. Now they are piled up. Gathering dust in the yard of the team headquarters.

When Shen Yuxiu was taken to the team headquarters and saw the stones in the yard, she was a little disappointed.

The black child said that there were black and green stones here. She thought they were as smooth and beautiful as the fruits in his hand, but it turned out that these stones were gray and white. Occasionally, the stones had some colors, but the black ones were not. So good-looking, green is not particularly good-looking, it is completely different from what she originally imagined.

"The gray and white is a layer of skin. The good-looking stones are all under the skin. You can see the skin by grinding off the skin with a tool. You can pick the color you like, and when the time comes to grind the skin, they will all look good." Seeing her disappointed face, the boy was afraid that Fang Youshun would not give her promise, so he quickly said, "Really, that's how my Shi Guoguo was ground, I won't lie to you."

Seeing that Shen Yuxiu was dumbfounded, Fang Youshun roughly translated what the child meant. Shen Yuxiu was surprised when he heard it, so he hesitated to find the color of the stone he liked with Grandma Fang.

In the end, she found two black stones the size of the rim of a bowl, and another green stone the size of a Chinese cabbage for people to rub their skin.

Sure enough, just like what the black boy said, after the outer skin of the gray-white stone was worn away, the color inside was moist, smooth and beautiful.

Because it has been out for nearly a month, and Shen Yuxiu has to go to school after returning home, Fang Youshun and Grandma Fang dare not waste too much time here, and after having the outer skin rubbed off, only the fruits that Shen Yuxiu wants are processed Well, I paid the money and moved one large, two small and three stones onto the tricycle and left the village.

Of course, before he left, he didn't forget to give the black boy corn bread.Hei Zi grinned happily when he saw the two extra cornbreads, and happily gnawed the cornbreads while watching the backs of the few people leaving.

On the road again, Shen Yuxiu had a new toy, and she fondled those stones every day, especially the fast green stones, which she liked more and more the more she looked at them.

Grandma Fang looked at her like that and couldn't help shaking her head in a funny way.

This thing is not worth much money. It is useless except that it looks good and can be used as buttons and pendants for decoration. That is, the old man in my family spoils the child. If you want her to say, just buy a small stone and make fruit for the child. Well, why spend money to get such a big stone and go back? Let's see it?Wouldn't it be nice to have that money to buy some food?

However, Fang Youshun didn't think so.

Maybe it's just like what my wife said, since this child was bullied, he hardly ever went out to play with others, of course, no one came to play with this child. Usually, when Shen Yulin is not around, this child is alone I was bored at home, and occasionally heard the sound of a child playing outside. Although the child didn't say anything, he could tell that the child was yearning for it.

But every time he asked the child why he didn't go out to play, she said no, but at this time, he could always see the loss and loneliness in the child's eyes.

So, when the kid said that he liked Guoguo and wanted a good-looking Guoguo, he agreed without saying a word.

It's just a few dollars, as long as it can make the child happy, he is willing to spend money, he wants the child to like something, at least not so boring when alone.

In this way, Fang Youshun took his wife and granddaughter to stop and go, and finally returned to the village where he had been away for more than a month on the afternoon of the first two days of school.

There was no wind or rain, and the sun was hanging obliquely in the western sky. Although the fields along the road were still dry, the corn seedlings had grown to the height of a person, and each stalk was covered with small corn cobs. There are small green or light purple beards on the top of the stick, telling people that they are trying to bear fruit.

Looking at the crops in the field and the people busy in the field, Fang Youshun and Grandma Fang finally felt less tense all the way.

It seemed that after they left, there had been rain here, otherwise the crops would not have grown so tall and could still bear corncobs. As long as there is a harvest in autumn, people will have something to eat and life will have hope.

When the three of them arrived at the door, the door was locked with an iron lock, and there was no one in the house, not to mention the children.

Fang Youshun parked the tricycle against the courtyard wall, stepped on the tricycle two or three times up the wall and turned into the courtyard, and took out a key from the broken shoe on the window sill to open the door.

The door of the house was opened, and the first thing Shen Yuxiu did was to ask her grandma to carry her three stones into the house, and then she found a shovel to close the door. In the corner of her room, it turned out that she buried her treasures. The place started digging.

Shen Yuxiu found that after she kept rubbing it along the way, the black stone really became much more shiny and beautiful.

The same is true for the green stone. The place that was often rubbed turned out to be more emerald green and beautiful under the sunlight, which made Shen Yuxiu feel happier the more he looked at it.

She decided that for one of the black stones, she could give her grandfather time to make a few more pairs of fruits and share them with her brothers, sisters and third brother, but the green one was her treasure, and she hid it more carefully than before. Those babes, and more babes.

Such a good baby, she is absolutely impossible to let the eldest sister and brothers and younger brothers see it, otherwise, if the brothers and brothers like it, the eldest sister will definitely ask her to let her go, even though the stone is very big and can make a lot of fruits , but she just didn't want to.

Therefore, she had to hide this treasure, hide it tightly, and not let her siblings and younger brothers know at all.

 I saw a little cutie who guessed that she went to WF yesterday, no, after reading this chapter, can you guess where it is?
