Purifying Mantra Chapter 14 Planting the Sun

Before eight o'clock in the morning, Zhao Shuang kicked me awake. I was a little angry and shouted at him: "Are you sick? Why did you wake me up so early?"

He didn't gnaw, and turned his back to change clothes. I saw that the clothes he changed were covered with mud and sweat, so I rubbed my hair, suppressed my anger and asked, "What are you doing here?"

He straightened his clothes without looking back: "I just finished tidying up the cellar, and I'm going to help grandma prepare pickles for the winter." After that, he walked out.

I sat on the bed and was stunned for a while, then I rubbed my face and followed. The yard was extremely lively, with many neighbors coming. Some were sorting vegetables, some were spreading salt on the vegetables layer by layer, and some were stuffing the salted vegetables into jars. Everyone has a division of labor and does it in an orderly manner. I was a little embarrassed to scratch my hair and say hello to them, and blamed Zhao Shuang: "Why didn't you wake me up earlier!"

He looked back at me and walked towards the vegetable patch in the yard, and I quickly followed. All the beans and cabbages in the vegetable field have been harvested, and the only things that need to be sorted out are potatoes and radishes. In autumn, the temperature should be suitable, but the sun is extremely hot, burning on the skin as if it has to peel off a layer of your skin.

It was really uncomfortable to work like this. With the fierce sun, I pulled out radishes and sang loudly: "I have a beautiful wish. When I grow up, I want to plant the sun. Sow one. One is enough. It will bear many fruits." Many suns. One is given to the Antarctic, one is given to the Arctic Ocean. One is hung in the winter, and the other is hung in the evening. La la la... plant the sun, la la la... plant sun……"

I was singing happily, and there seemed to be a cool breeze blowing behind me. Suddenly my heart became enlightened, and I planned to stand up and express my emotions at the moment. Unexpectedly, my head hit a hard object, and I suddenly felt like stars in my eyes. Just as I was about to turn around and curse, I saw Zhao Shuang covering his nose and squinting at me. People around us were stunned and looked at us. I rubbed the top of my head and sang pitifully: "The north wind is blowing... the snowflakes are fluttering..." People burst into laughter. Zhao Shuang couldn't hold it in and laughed. I grabbed his neck and shouted: "Let me see, brother, have you knocked the bridge of your nose crooked?" As I said that, I quickly stretched my hands covered with mud to his face, and the kid easily dodged it as soon as he lowered his head. , everyone laughed even more happily when they saw this.

The grandmother came to wipe the sweat of both of us with her little feet. She touched Zhao Shuang's red nose distressedly and patted my arm gently: "You stinky child, look at Shuang'er. "

I rubbed my arms with an aggrieved look on my face and screamed: "Who told him to sneak up behind me? I don't have eyes on the back of my head, and it hurts me!"

When the grandma heard this, she quickly pulled me down and helped me rub my head. Perhaps because of my lively atmosphere, I didn’t feel tired at all during the farm work. In less than two hours, everything was done and the yard was tidy. The neighbor's aunt brought a big pot of rice, and everyone gathered together to eat and then dispersed.

When I was lying on the bed dirty and ready to take a nap, Zhao Shuang kicked me again. I jumped up angrily and planned to fight with him, but he only whispered, and I immediately changed my clothes and backpack to go out with him. Because Zhao Shuang said: "I made an agreement with grandma to go camping at noon. Now let's go, I will accompany you to find Huang Xiao."

When we went out, grandma had already taken a rare lunch break. We closed the door and were about to leave for the second aunt's house when Huang Xiao came over saying hello from a distance. Zhao Shuang and I looked at each other. He frowned slightly, with a trace of uneasiness in his eyes. I'm also a little confused, why did Huang Xiao appear so promptly?

"Have you eaten yet? I was planning to invite you to go to a restaurant with me!" Huang Xiao was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, with a smile on her lips as she spoke.

"This guy kicked me up early in the morning to work, and we had a big pot of rice with the neighbors, and we just left!" I raised my face towards Zhao Shuang, feeling guilty in my heart. I became suspicious of Huang Xiao no matter what. .

"Why don't you ask me to work with you?" Huang Xiao quickly glanced at Zhao Shuang and said to me.

I was a little embarrassed and scratched my hair: "So you still have this hobby. I knew I would call you earlier. Aren't you going to eat? I just don't have enough to eat either. Let's go! Let's go eat something together." I caught up with Huang Xiao shoulder, pulling him towards the hotel. Zhao Shuang followed us silently, his head lowered and his steps brisk, not knowing what he was thinking.

The three of us were carrying big bags. Zhao Shuang and I bought new equipment two days ago. So what was Huang Xiao carrying? I was a little curious: "Why are you carrying such a big bag? Are you planning to run away from home?"

Huang Xiao glanced at my bag: "Didn't you mean going down to the tree hole? I found an emergency light for lighting. It's a bit big and doesn't look good in my hand! But what did you two bring?"

"It's just some rope!" I tried to pretend to be relaxed and shrugged, but in the end I almost fell to my knees under the weight of my backpack. In my bag, I not only stuffed the tools needed to dig into the tree hole, but also brought a set of clothes. I was afraid that when I came out of the tree hole, I would be dirty and make my grandma suspicious.

Zhao Shuang came over and took off his backpack and handed it to me. He took my backpack off his shoulders and put it on his back. He didn't say a word during this period, and he didn't know who he was angry with. I'm not sure of his current temper, so I don't dare to provoke him.

We came to a beef noodle restaurant. There were only three restaurants here, and there were not many choices. Huang Xiao ordered hand-picked rice, but I saw that one-third of the rice was soaked in oil. I really didn't dare to try it, so I ordered two bowls of beef noodles without asking Zhao Shuang's opinion.

During the meal, I took out the knife from the time capsule from my bag and handed it to Huang Xiao. I deliberately didn't tell him the origin of the knife. Huang Xiaoling looked at the knife for a long time. I thought he recognized it, but he put the knife into his bag without saying a word and said nothing. This made me completely confused. Zhao Shuang touched me lightly and shook his head slightly. I thought he meant that I didn’t have to ask further questions, so the story ended here, and at the same time, I became more interested in Huang Xiao. Somewhat alienated.

When we walked out of the hotel, it was already lunch break. Except for the three of us, even the insects on the street had stopped chirping. I was afraid that the atmosphere would become dull, so I raised my hands and shouted: "Comrades, we must respond to the party's call, walk in goose, sing loudly, and shout a slogan before speaking!"

Huang Xiao immediately laughed and scolded: "You are so dishonest and you still respond to the party's call! Don't recruit evil for our party!" Although he said this, he kicked the ball unconsciously, maybe just to respond to my adjustment. atmosphere.

Zhao Shuang didn't mess around with us. He ran into the small shop and bought three bottles of water. When he came out, he threw one bottle to Huang Xiao. Huang Xiao was a little surprised and thanked him repeatedly. Zhao Shuang didn't respond and put the remaining two bottles of water into the bag I was carrying.
