The children wore shorts and T-shirts and played in the yard. When they were tired, they lay on the bamboo beds, chatted and looked at the stars.
In such an occasion, there must be a story about Cheng Cheng, and that would be called romance.
Liliu suggested that Cheng Cheng tell a story about Night Owl Beard, but Xi'er and Xiaomi disagreed. Night Owl Beard was around and telling stories would attract him.
Liliu laughed heartily. She liked to tease the children and make them scared.
Cheng Cheng listened to Xi'er's suggestion and told a story about a big fish.
Because they caught fish today, they felt very immersed in this story.
"Oh, I really want to swim in the water." Xiaobai sighed. She dreamed of transforming into a big fish, swimming in big rivers, and going wherever she wanted.
Cheng Cheng told everyone three stories in succession, and everyone listened with great interest.
Cheng Cheng was thirsty and asked for water, and the water was brought to her mouth.
"Cheng Cheng, drink quickly." It was Da Yanyan who was here to bring water to Cheng Cheng immediately, hoping that she would continue telling stories to everyone after drinking the water.
But Cheng Cheng drank the water and said he wouldn't tell it today, there were only three stories.
Liuliu was dissatisfied, but there was nothing she could do. Cheng Cheng manipulated her easily.
Xi'er picked up the firefly lantern, opened the lantern's mouth, and released the fireflies inside.
"Fly away quickly, fly away, go home and sleep, thank you~~~"
Xi'erhuan sent these fireflies flying away, twinkling and twinkling, and the children watched them off one after another.
Lying on the bamboo bed, it was very cool and the breeze was blowing. Xiaobai exclaimed that the stars in the sky were moving.
The children opened their eyes wide to see which star was secretly moving.
So many stars are motionless and pretending to be stupid, but among them there are one or two naughty ones.
Everyone was lying on the bamboo bed, and the night was getting darker. Unknowingly, the children's voices became quieter and quieter.
Everyone fell asleep.
"Everyone is asleep."
Zhu Xiaojing quietly walked closer to take a closer look, only to see a little girl staring at her with wide eyes, motionless.
"Dudu, you didn't sleep?"
The one who is awake is Dudu.
Dudu shook his head, his eyes widened.
She quietly climbed up from the pile of dolls, got off the bamboo bed, and went to find her father.
It wasn't time to go to bed yet, and she wasn't ready to sleep yet.
It's very quiet at night in the countryside. It's only around nine o'clock, but it feels like it's late at night here.
Dudu found Zhao Gongcheng. When Meng Guangxin saw this, he picked up Cheng Cheng on the bamboo bed and went home with the Zhao family and his daughter.
Ding Jiamin and Zhu Xiaojing also picked up Xiaomi and Liuliu respectively, and went back with Dunzi's mother.
Dunzi's mother walked in front, holding a flashlight in her hand, and kept telling Ding Jiamin and Zhu Xiaojing behind to be careful where they step and not to fall.
Her home is separated from Teacher Jiang's home by a paddy field, and the only way to get around is by walking along the field bank. Because they are the only two families in this area, there are no roads built.
When Dunzi was little, he often fell into paddy fields, but he is doing much better now.
The paddy fields on both sides of the ridge were filled with the sound of frogs, and occasionally one or two lights in the distance could be seen in the night.
Dunzi's mother said that it was because someone released water to the farmland at night, or to take care of the fish.
The night breeze was a bit cold. Teacher Jiang said that he should take Xi'er and Xiaobai into the room to sleep. They should not lie outside all the time. The mountain wind here is strong and the children's resistance is not strong, so they should not catch a cold or get sick.
Zhang Tan held one in each hand, and Xi'er held the small paper lantern tightly in his hand, unable to break it open.
After putting the two of them on the bed, Zhang Tan returned to the yard, looked around, and then turned off the lights in the yard. When he returned home, he closed the door and turned off the lights in the living room.
He heard a cough coming from Teacher Jiang's room, so he poured a glass of warm water and sent it over, and then returned to his room to rest.
Here, unlike in Little Red Horse Academy, the sound of birds in the woods outside the window will not wake people up in the morning.
The sound of birds on the mountain is heard, but it doesn't reach this far.
When Zhang Tan got up, he felt refreshed, and the air outside was even fresher, mixed with the aroma of vegetation and earth.
The door to the house has been opened. Teacher Jiang got up earlier and is currently busy in the kitchen.
Zhang Tan went over to take a look and asked if there was anyone who needed help.
Teacher Jiang asked him to exercise on his own because he knew how many laps he had to run every morning.
He didn't run yesterday. Today, after being reminded by Teacher Jiang, Zhang Tan changed into sports shoes and ran along the cement road to Baijia Village. When he passed a small bridge, he saw someone washing clothes under the bridge.
I took a closer look and found that it was Ding Jiamin. I looked again and saw that there was a child beside Ding Jiamin, but it was not Xiaomi, but Dudu!
Ding Jiamin stood in the water, washing clothes on the big rocks on the shore, while Dudu squatted aside, washing and washing a small yellow T-shirt, doing it very seriously.
Zhang Tan didn't understand why Dudu came to the river to wash clothes with Ding Jiamin early in the morning. The two of them probably didn't live together.
Zhang Tan did not disturb them, ran across the small bridge and ran into Baijia Village. Passing the big camphor tree at the entrance of the village, he continued running forward and finally saw his stone tablet.
This was the third time I saw Zhang Tan, but I still felt a toothache from looking at him. The picture above was of him, but it looked weird.
He didn't know beforehand that such a big stone tablet was given to him and a portrait was carved on it. He didn't know until later that it was a surprise for him. By then it was too late.
Zhang Tan ran back and did not meet Zhao Gongcheng, who was said to be running in the morning. However, when he passed the small bridge, he no longer saw Ding Jiamin and Dudu under the bridge.
But as soon as he returned home, he saw a child in the yard carrying a watering can and watering the flowers.
"Dudu, why are you so early?" Zhang Tan greeted.
He had to admire Dudu for getting up so early every day and loving to work. He was rushing to do it. This morning, he was washing clothes and sprinkling water. He was like the reincarnation of the snail girl.
"I'm busy~watering the little flowers~"
Miss Zhao glanced at him and felt that he was far less beautiful than the flowers in front of her, so she replied, took one look at him, ignored him, and concentrated on watering the flowers.
Zhang Tanxin said, it's okay if you ignore me, but aren't you afraid that I will retaliate against you? What did you just say? Water the little flowers? You don't know that Xiaobai's nickname here is Xiaohuahua.
But for the sake of this child's hard work and steadfastness, Zhang Tan decided to let her go. If it was Liliu, she would be reported to the police.
Zhang Tan was about to enter the house, but Miss Zhao, who ignored him, ran over, caught him and asked: "Boss Zhang, Boss Zhang, do you want me to help you wake up Xiaobai and Xi'er?"
Zhang Tan was about to say yes, but suddenly he remembered that the children lined up last night to tell Dudu not to wake them up this morning, so he quickly changed his words: "No, it's still early, let them sleep for a while."
Dudu was a little disappointed, so he let out a sigh, took the watering can to fill it with water, and continued to water all the flowers in the yard.
When Zhang Tan took a shower, changed clothes and came out, Miss Zhao was no longer in the yard. He looked at the foot of the mountain not far away, where there was a green rice field, the wind blew the fragrance of rice, and there were children holding buffaloes.
Grazing cattle.
"Eh? Isn't that Dunzi? And... Dudu?"
Zhang Tan recognized the cow herder as Dunzi, and following Dunzi was a child in a yellow T-shirt. It was Dudu who was watering the yard just now!
Seeing this, Zhang Tan looked back at the room...
You have to throw away when comparing goods, and you have to throw away when comparing people.
"Wake up—get up!"
He took the courage of a bear and a leopard, pushed away Xiaobai and Xi'er's room, and roared twice.
"Calm down~~ Calm down! I'll just shout casually. If you don't want to get up, forget it. Just treat it as if I didn't say anything."
As soon as Zhang Tan entered, he was kicked out and a rag doll was thrown at his feet.
Teacher Jiang just happened to appear. Seeing this scene, Zhang Tan explained: "Children are angry when they wake up and are very aggressive, mainly Xiaobai."
"Let them sleep a little longer. It's still early now. Where is Dudu? I made egg and meat cake soup for her." Teacher Jiang said, holding a bowl of fragrant egg and meat cake soup in her hand.
"After watering the flowers, I followed Dunzi to herd the cattle," Zhang Tan said.
"ah?"
Teacher Jiang came to the yard and looked at Dunzi and Dudu who had gone away...
Just one chapter today, and three more chapters tomorrow when I’m home.
