The next morning, Su Xiangwan was awakened by the sound of chickens outside the house.
After taking a look at Lu shaochu lying next to her, Su Xiangwan remembered that the four of them had dinner together last night. Seeing that Lu shaochu and her uncle had a good time drinking, she went back to her room to have a rest. It may be because of pregnancy. At present, she basically sleeps in bed and sleeps very heavily.
Seeing that he was sleeping heavily, Su Xiangwan didn't quarrel with him. He picked up the next coat, put it on, and got out of bed carefully from the side.
Su Xiangwan put on his clothes and went outside for a simple wash. He saw his aunt coming out with some steamed buns!
"Good morning, aunt!"
"Morning, come and have dinner when you get up!"
"OK!" then Sue went to the table to have breakfast.
After looking at the time, it was getting late. Su Xiangwan grabbed a steamed bun from the bowl and asked, "aunt, didn't uncle say he was going to cut firewood last night?"
"Your uncle won't go. He drank too much wine with your boy last night. What's the aftereffect of the wine? They don't want to get up today!"
As she spoke, the aunt took the steamed bread and drank the porridge in the bowl.
"Sister Su, are you ready? We should start!"
Hearing Miaomiao's voice, Su Xiangwan looked at his aunt and asked, "Miaomiao doesn't know that uncle won't go to the mountain to cut firewood today?"
"Yes, I told her this morning that his third uncle's son next door was going to cut firewood in the mountain, so Miao Miao went with him later.
As soon as Miaomiao entered the yard, he saw Su Xiangwan and his aunt still eating breakfast on the table.
"Miao Miao, come, have you eaten?" when I saw Miao Miao coming, my aunt was busy greeting.
"Aunt, don't be busy. I've already eaten. I came to pick up sister Su!"
After finishing the last bit of steamed bread in his hand, Su Xiangwan put down the bowl in his hand, smiled and said, "I'm ready!"
"Miao Miao, wait for me. I'll go to my room and get a dress!"
"Don't go too far. You can come back after cutting for almost a long time, you know?" my aunt told me.
Miao Miao naturally knew what his aunt meant and said with a smile, "don't worry, aunt. I'm not going to cut firewood today. I just take sister Su to the mountain and pick some wild fruits by the way."
"That's good. Go early and return early. My aunt will wait for you for dinner at noon!"
"All right!"
After changing his clothes, Su Xiangwan came out of the room and said to his aunt, "aunt, if shaochu wakes up later, if he asks me, you'll say I went out with Miao Miao!"
"Don't worry!"
"Then let's go!"
The words fell, Miao Miao had already pulled Su Xiangwan to go outside.

"Leng Shao, we have been walking along the river for almost a day. If we follow the location on the map, we should not be far from the ancient village?" a man in black who followed Leng Yichen looked at the winding river in front and asked.
Leng Yichen reached out and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Although it was winter, he still felt very hot.
Pick up the map in your hand and look at the notes on it. It is reasonable that they should be near the ancient village now, but why haven't you seen the village yet? "
"We're walking forward. It should be almost there!" put away the map, and Leng Yichen walked forward with several brothers.
After walking for more than ten minutes, a fork appeared in the reeds by the river.
"Cold little, look, there's a fork here?"
Looking at the fork road in front, although it is not like the usual road, you can still see that someone has passed here.
Seeing that everyone was tired, in order to prevent wrongdoing, Leng Yichen said to the two people in black behind: "you two go to the front first. If there is a village, call us. If not, turn back. We'll wait for you here!"
"Yes!" then, the man in black soon disappeared into the reeds by the river.
********
Miao Miao took Su Xiangwan to the entrance of the village. From a distance, he saw a boy looking around on the small wooden bridge in front.
"Look, brother Daniel is already there!"
When they trotted over, they heard the boy called Daniel say, "you're here?"
"Hello, my name is Su Xiangwan, or you can call me Xiang Wan!" looking at this strong man with a little dark skin, Su Xiangwan smiled and introduced him.
"Hello, sister Xiang Wan, I'm Daniel!" Daniel looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and his face turned red, like a ripe red apple.
Looking at Daniel's red face, Su Xiangwan smiled at Miao Miao and said, "brother Daniel, you lead the way!"
Hearing Miao Miao calling him, Daniel, who had not responded, suddenly raised his head, looked at Miao Miao and said, "what's the matter?"
Su Xiangwan was instantly amused by Daniel's stupefied appearance, smiled and said, "brother Daniel, you don't have to be so nervous, just treat me as Miao Miao!"
Daniel, who reacted, smiled at Su Xiangwan and said, "let's go!"
Then Daniel picked up a basket beside the bridge and led the way in front.
"Miao Miao, didn't you say to cut firewood? Why do you still have a basket?" looking at the basket in Daniel's hand, Su Xiangwan asked curiously.
"Can't uncle cut firewood? Just last night, brother Daniel told me that he saw a lot of wild fruit on the mountain not far ahead a few days ago, so I asked brother Daniel to take us to pick some fruit and eat it this morning!"
"So it is, but will it delay you?" after all, rural children are different from them. They have to do everything at home?
Daniel would look at Su Xiangwan and say with a smile, "it's all right. It's winter now. The farm work at home has been finished. We usually go out and cut some firewood. If there are wild fruits, we will pick some back to eat."
After listening to Daniel, Miao Miao nodded aside.
"Sister Su, don't think so much. It's fate that we can know each other. When you go back, we don't know when we can meet again?"
Holding Miao Miao's arm, Su Xiangwan said with a smile, "don't worry, even if I go back, I'll come back to see you when I have time!"
"Sister Su has to keep her word!"
"Of course!"
"Let's pull the hook!" Miao Miao stretched out her little thumb and smiled at Su Xiangwan, revealing her lovely dimple.
Looking at the childish Miao Miao, Su Xiangwan also stretched out his little thumb, smiled and said, "hook your little finger, what you say will never change."
