Peasant Girl's Jingxiu Pastoral

Chapter 15 Yulin Mountain

The sky is getting brighter, the sun shines in from the window, and the inner room is instantly brightened. I saw a little person on the bed moving, turning over in a daze. The sun shines on the little person's face, making the little person open His eyes were blurred, and there was a flash of confusion in the eyes, and there was also a looming mist in them.

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. After waking up, Yue Yue looked at her sister who was sleeping soundly facing her, then gently raised herself up, lifted the quilt from her body, turned over and sat up, and when she got dressed, she stood up. Get up, gently go to the other side of the window and sit down, bend over to pick up your shoes and socks and put them on, then get up and walk towards the bedroom door, when you are about to leave the door, turn around and look at your sister who is sleeping soundly on the bed, then gently open the wooden door Walking to the main room, he turned around and gently closed the door of the inner room.

Standing in the main room, Yan Yue saw the door of her parents' bedroom was open, then walked in, found that her younger brother was still sound asleep, she walked out of the room lightly, then walked to the door of the main room, stepped over the threshold, and watched as she was busy cleaning the yard Lu Yue called out his father, and then stood at the gate in a daze.

After regaining consciousness, Yue Yue felt that the whole village seemed to come alive suddenly. Looking at the farmer uncle walking in twos and threes on the dirt road in the distance, holding farm tools and preparing to work, he was in a daze for a while, thinking that the farmers would get up early , nothing more than two or three things, either going to the fields to do farm work, or the women and children at home pouring night incense and burning breakfast, farmers, women and farmers perform their duties, and I don’t think there is anything wrong with it.

It didn't take long for the village to jump up and down. The occasional dog crowing, rooster crowing, and children's laughter all showed that the village was lively!

Looking at the smoke rising from the kitchen roof, Yue Yue knew that her mother might be busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

So he raised his feet and walked towards the kitchen, and when Yan Yue entered the kitchen, as expected, his mother Fang was cooking, and Yan Yue asked curiously: "Mother, what delicious food did you cook?"

Seeing that it was the second daughter, Fang's head came back, and there was nothing delicious, so she cooked some white rice and corn porridge, and then heated up the leftover corn cakes from yesterday afternoon, while listening, Yue Yue walked towards the stove When I walked in, I found that white rice and corn porridge was being cooked in an iron pot.

At this time, her father, Ouyang Chun, also entered the kitchen, looked at Yunyue who was standing by the stove, touched the top of Yunyue's head, then turned around and went out to the corner with two wooden barrels on a pole , Yue Yue looked at it, thinking that my father went to the well in the village to fetch water!
In fact, there are several wells in Longyuan Village, but Yue’s parents always like to take a few steps to fetch water from the well at the head of the village, because they think the well water is clean and cool, and they think it is real groundwater, and the wells come again. It is at the head of the village, and there are not many people who go to fetch water. It is seven or eight minutes away from the well at the head of the village, and it takes about fifteen to twenty-ten minutes to go back and forth. It's hard for Yue Yue to say anything for a while, after all, clean water is also very important.

The physical work of carrying water is mostly done by Ouyang and his wife. Since the three of them are still young, it is the honest and weak parents who carry water every time.

Yue Yue was chatting and laughing with her mother in the kitchen, watching the fire in the stove and the porridge in the pot at the same time. After a while, her elder sister Yingyu also came to the kitchen, followed by her younger brother, saying hello to each other Seeing this, Mrs. Fang asked the siblings to get some water to wash up, thinking that they would wait for the head of the family to come back for dinner.

Life in the countryside is always repeated day after day. Breakfast consists of two corn shepherd's purse pancakes for one person, a bowl of porridge, plus the leftover fried shepherd's purse and cold asparagus.

After breakfast, the couple exhorted their three children, and then went to the field with the hoe again!

After the three siblings cleaned up the dishes, Yanyue suggested to her elder sister that she would go up the mountain to have a look, and by the way call her good friend Mu Zixi. According to the memory of the original body, the Mu family has a large population, including grandpa, grandma, parents, And Zixi and the others happen to be three brothers and sisters, a family of seven!
Seeing that the work that should be done has been done, Yingyu felt relieved to go along, so she said to Yunyue: "Then let's go together, and take my younger brother, so that he won't be worried if he is alone at home. Thinking about it, I nodded."

Immediately, the three siblings went to the corner of the kitchen where the agricultural tools were placed to find sickles and bamboo baskets, and each carried one on their arms, thinking that if they encountered wild vegetables for a while, they could pick more, then closed the doors and windows, and went out. Yard, detour to Muzixi's house.

When they got to Muzixi's house, they found that their family was eating breakfast. Standing at the gate of the courtyard, they could see the people eating in the main room, so the three brothers and sisters called out one by one as a greeting.

The three siblings did not enter the courtyard of Mu's house, but stood outside the courtyard and waited. When Muzixi came out after eating, Yanyue told Muzixi that he wanted to go up the mountain, and asked Muzixi if he would go with him. Muzixi Hearing that Yan Yue and the others were going to the mountain, they hurriedly responded: "Go, go, I'll go, you guys wait, wait for me for a while!"

After saying that, she hurriedly turned around and entered the yard, while walking, she turned her head to look at the three of Yunyue, sister and brother, for fear that they would not wait for her.

When Mu Zixi came out with a bamboo basket containing small farm tools, she was obviously relieved to find that the three siblings were still waiting for her at the gate of the courtyard, she was really afraid that they would not wait for her.

Walking on the small road in the countryside, they greeted the villagers who were working one by one, and then walked towards Yulin Mountain in the east, talking and laughing.
