Jiang Jinyu quickly picked up the baggage he had packed last night and jumped out of the mule cart.

She does not hate going out with her parents, but if she goes out with friends of the same age, she is not willing to stay with her parents anymore.

A secret child's fear of his parents.

Chen Yuhua was obviously scared too. She kept a dignified expression and climbed onto her mule cart until Jiang Jinyu followed.

The moment the door curtain was lowered, Chen Yuhua breathed an exaggerated sigh of relief.

Jiang Jinyu laughed out loud: "What's wrong? Is it possible that my mother can still eat you?"

Chen Yuhua wrinkled his face: "No, oops, you don't understand."

She poked her head out and looked out, and suddenly became happy: "Mother Fish, my third brother is going back this time too."

"Let him take us to ride horses then!"

Jiang Jinyu knew that Chen Yuhua and her third brother were the disciples of Mr. Wu, and they would also have a holiday this autumn harvest.

It's just that two days ago, Chen Yuhua complained to her that her third brother didn't go home again. Without her company, her parents wouldn't let her go out to play in Zhuangzi by herself.

Jiang Jinyu smiled in agreement, clapped her hands and said, "That's great, I've never ridden a horse before."

About an hour later, the mule cart stopped at a fork in the road. People were coming and going, and it was inconvenient for a few people to get out of the car, so they just opened the curtains and talked.

Bai told Jiang Jinyu through the car window: "Mom went up the mountain from here. You must know the etiquette when going to Chen's house."

Then he smiled gently at Chen Yuhua and said, "Send hello to your parents for me. My fish girl is bothering you today."

Chen Yuhua waved her hands quickly: "No, no, I invited the fish girl to come to my house. My parents are very welcoming!"

The three of them separated at the intersection.

The Chen family is indeed not far from Chongxu Temple, but within a quarter of an hour you can see a large golden wheat field in the distance.

Chen Yuhua excitedly pulled Jiang Jinyu to look outside, pointed at the wheat field and said, "That's my home!"

"Going further is the main gate of Zhuangzi. My parents will definitely be waiting for me at the gate!"

Sure enough, the door of Zhuangzi has been opened, and a pair of rich-looking middle-aged men and women are standing at the door. The two are talking in a low voice, their expressions are intimate, and they obviously have an extremely close relationship.

The man who looked like a butler next to him saw a familiar mule cart coming this way, and quickly reminded his master and his wife: "Master, look, our girl is back?"

The couple quickly stopped talking and approached him in unison.

As soon as Chen Yuhua jumped out of the car, Mrs. Chen took her into her arms.

Mrs. Chen frowned and scolded with a fake smile: "You kid, I asked you to go back with your parents. You have to leave a day late alone, which makes my mother worried to death."

Chen Yuhua hurriedly struggled to the side, feeling that he had lost face in front of his friends, and said loudly with a blushing face: "I am already a big girl, I just go home alone, what can I do?"

"Mom, you just love worrying."

"You kid..." Mrs. Chen continued to ramble, but Master Chen pulled her back and stopped her words.

Jiang Jinyu took advantage of every opportunity to say hello to Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen, with a decent smile on her face.

Mr. Chen also smiled and nodded: "You are leaving early in the morning, are you hungry?"

"Come in quickly, your aunt asked the cook to prepare delicious food for you early in the morning." Mrs. Chen also came over and held Jiang Jinyu's hand: "Look at me, I'm so worried that I'm confused. I didn't even see our little fish girl. .”

"Don't you like to eat the vine cakes made by our cook? My mother-in-law specially asked the cook to make a lot of them!"

Jiang Jinyu and Chen Yuhua were pulled forward by Mrs. Chen, one on the left and the other on the right.

Jiang Jinyu turned her head and looked directly at Chen Yuhua, both of them showing expressions of deep helplessness.

Mr. Chen came back to manage the autumn harvest in the village. He didn't have much time to play with the two little girls, so he just sent a few people back to the house and hurried to the grain depot.

Mrs. Chen was not busy, but she had also been here when she was a little girl. She knew that girls at this age did not like to be with adults, so she told the servants to be careful not to let Miss and Miss Jiang leave the village. After that, she also returned to her room. inside.

Seeing Mrs. Chen walking away, Chen Yuhua immediately jumped down from the chair, glanced at the servants around him, and quietly whispered in Jiang Jinyu's ear: "Let's go on horseback."

Jiang Jinyu swallowed the snack in his mouth slowly: "But didn't your mother just say that your third brother had already gone out on horseback?"

When Chen Yuhua heard this, he immediately became angry and pouted: "Brother Stinky, I told him to wait for me, but luckily he ran away early in the morning!"

Jiang Jinyu shrugged: "So how do we ride horses?"

Chen Yuhua showed a proud smile: "I know where the third brother has gone, let's go and guard there, wait for him to come down from the mountain, and catch him!"

Jiang Jinyu happened to also want to go out for a walk. She wanted to refer to the Chen family's Zhuangzi, or to make some optimizations for her own Zhuangzi.

Such a large piece of land was used only to grow food, which was a huge loss.

Chen Yuhua really had no intention of leaving Zhuangzi. She took Jiang Jinyu to a forest at the foot of the mountain. There was a cool air in the forest, which was just right for the two of them to hide from the sun.

Chen Yuhua stood under the shade of the tree and said to Jiang Jinyu, "My third brother must have taken his classmate up the mountain to hunt."

"We'll wait here."

Jiang Jinyu walked around the giant tree several times, which was wider than several of her. She stretched out her hand to touch the bark of the tree and sighed, "It's so big."

"My father said," Chen Yuhua raised his chin proudly: "This tree is at least a hundred years old. It was planted by our ancestors many years ago and moved from other places."

"It took a lot of effort."

The sun was getting higher and it was getting hotter in the forest. The two of them were getting impatient with the wait.

Seeing that no one showed any intention of coming down, Chen Yuhua said dejectedly, "It's too hot. Let's go back and wait."

Jiang Jinyu didn't come here to ride horses, and it didn't matter whether he could wait for the third brother of the Chen family. He immediately comforted him and said, "It's okay. We'll come back to ride horses when the weather gets cooler."

Facts have proved that the temperature in August is indeed not suitable for running outside, this is what the two people thought after returning home under the bright sun and eating iced drinks around the ice basin.

"It's so comfortable," Jiang Jinyu leaned back and lay on the chair, sighing: "Sure enough, it still needs ice."

"This winter, I must ask my father to remember to dig an ice cellar to store ice."

"Doesn't your family use ice in winter?" Chen Yuhua, who has never had a hard life since he was a child, is very puzzled.

Jiang Jinyu explained: "In previous years, there was no money and no ice cellar. Where did the ice come from?"

Chen Yuhua knew that the Jiang family had only recently become rich, and he also knew that Jiang Jinyu's life had not been good before, but it was not until today that he had a sense of reality.
