Chapter 55 Baked Sweet Potatoes

Guo Lele is a girl who is very good at mobilizing the atmosphere. After our two little guys joined, she immediately clapped her hands to let everyone listen to her quietly, "Just now your team won once and tied with our team. Now we will win or lose once. We can't jump If you are the highest, you will admit defeat. If you lose, we will collectively sweep the leaves and bake sweet potatoes for you."

"I'm waiting for you to bake sweet potatoes for us!" Guo Xin glanced at me behind Guo Lele, and replied confidently.

"Hehe, is that so?" Guo Lele thought Guo Xin was aiming at her, so she became competitive, "Take the rope, let's go."

Guo Xin sent the three tallest girls to lead the rope, while Guo Lele was dividing the rope, letting the older one lead the younger one. She took me who was standing behind her as her lead as a matter of course.

Winning or losing is determined once, and the game starts again soon.Guo Lele took the brunt of the first jump. Although it was at the height of my calf, it was still about the waist for me. She jumped over nimbly, then pressed the rope with her foot and let me jump over with her eyes.I jumped over happily, the triangle rope is very wide, the more people playing, the more fun it is, so the venue became lively because of the prizes, and the emotions of both parties also rose to an unprecedented level.

Guo Xin watched Guo Lele's tricks and didn't make a sound, but the people on her side were booing, trying to influence Guo Lele and our side, because as long as one person can't jump, or trips over the rope, they will lose.

But our team let their team down, because they all skipped the calf smoothly.

"Xiaoxiao, you still dance with me, do you understand?" Guo Lele looked at the rope on her knee, but when it reached me, it almost reached my shoulder.Said softly, frowning.

"No, Sister Lele, look." I compared the height of the rope, gave her a bright smile, and went straight to somersaulting without even running up.Most children in rural areas can do somersaults and handstands, so it is not surprising that I am like this.

"Wow! Xiaoxiao, you are amazing." Guo Lele looked at me inside the rope and clapped her hands in praise.

"Sister Lele, look, I can do it too." Seeing Guo Lele praising me, the friends at the back acted not to be outdone.Each of the little friends used their own methods to cross the rope. Some of them were doing somersaults like me, and they even used run-ups to jump over.Guo Lele was taken aback for a moment, but immediately realized and jumped along.Our little ones didn't stop until their shoulders were high, and obediently jumped behind the big ones.

I finally reached the height of raising my hand. I raised my head to look at the height of the rope, and then looked at the height of Guo Lele and other teammates. I felt that Guo Lele was the most confident. .

"Let me do it." After discussing with the other tallest players, Guo Lele stepped back for a run-up. Her body was not straight enough when she was somersaulting, and she hoped that she could be straighter this time.She took a few deep breaths, shook her hands and rushed towards the rope. She accurately put her palms on the ground one step away, rolled over beautifully, and pressed her body against the rope.

Our team kept staring at her holding our breath. When she ran up, our hearts felt like they were jumping in our throats. Until she jumped over the rope beautifully, we finally cheered.

Guo Xin lowered her head in disappointment, the winner has already been announced.She was very confident that Guo Lele couldn't jump the rope, because Guo Lele's body is not straight enough for somersaults. head.But now Guo Lele turned over.

"We lost, let's sweep the leaves." Although Guo Xin was a little narrow-minded, she would still admit defeat.She yelled at her teammates.

"Let's go together too." Guo Lele touched my head, and then said to everyone, "Let's eat roasted sweet potatoes together later."

Guo Lele's words made everyone cheer. It is the most beautiful thing to eat roasted sweet potatoes in the cold winter. The roasted sweet potatoes are sweet, glutinous and pink.Guo Xin had already grabbed a broom and swept the leaves under the longan tree beside the sun-drying field. Hearing Guo Lele's words, she felt very complicated. Her first reaction was that Guo Lele was pretending to be generous again, and her second reaction was that she wanted to eat it too. Roasted sweet potato.

The male friends over there stopped playing when they heard that we were going to sweep the leaves and roast sweet potatoes. They all came to help sweep the leaves. Some saw that there were not many sweet potatoes in the basket and ran home to get them.

"Smile, it's great! I saw it just now." The big cousin hugged me, with a rare smile on his paralyzed face.He knows my restless character, he doesn't feel it in summer, but it becomes more obvious in winter.

"Yeah, smile, it's amazing." Guo Lele originally taught a few young people to cover the sweet potatoes with dry mud, so that the skin of the sweet potatoes would not be burnt when the leaves were burned, and the baked sweet potatoes were delicious. tasty.As soon as I heard what my cousin said, I immediately turned around and echoed. "Wait a minute, I will reward Xiaoxiao with a red sweet potato. This year, only our family has this in the whole village."

At this time, whether it is in the village or the town, the sweet potatoes that everyone grows are white and glutinous sweet potatoes, but red sweet potatoes are still very rare. Red sweet potatoes not only have the waxy white sweet potato, but also are very sweet.So as soon as I heard Guo Lele's words, I immediately became happy.

The leaves were also swept, and everyone poured the leaves on the pile of sweet potatoes covered with mud, a large pile, like a small hillside.Guo Lele used a match to light the fire, and the leaves were very dry, and it caught fire at one point.I was hugged by my big cousin and my friends sat far away around the fire to keep warm. The leaves were blazing, and I watched the red flames grow from flourishing to small, until I smelled the delicious smell of roasted sweet potatoes.Everyone inhaled hard involuntarily, which was much more attractive than the boiled sweet potatoes at home.
