Chapter 70 Candy
Xiao Ayu's shout attracted the rest of the village, and everyone followed to the edge of the cliff to look down, and sure enough, there was a carriage there. "Hey, why would a carriage come to our village?"
"Did you come to our village? Are you visiting relatives?"
"It shouldn't be our local people, and we have traveled a long way."
There are two roads at the entrance of Hujia Village, one leads to the outside world and the other leads to the river.
If you go around the road by the river, you can also go to the outside world, but it has to be a long way.
The locals don’t leave.
And that road can only be at the foot of the cliff. People can walk up the stone ladder, but horse-drawn carts and donkey carts cannot.
When everyone was discussing, curious children already ran down the cliff.
"Little brother! Look good little brother!" Xiao Ayu was already very happy, and she kept waving her hand, and wanted to follow Qin Huai under the cliff.
Everyone stopped Xiao Ayu, the mountain road is difficult to walk, so don't fall on this little beanie.
Qin Huai and the others didn't know until they got off the carriage that this road could not go directly to Hujia Village.
The driver looked embarrassed: "You two sons, this is another way to detour, little old man, I won't be able to go home in time."
It was dark and the road was slippery, so he was afraid.
At this time, the children in the village had already jumped and ran down.
The children ran so fast that it only took a stick of incense to go down the mountain. They were extremely curious around the carriage.
These children have not traveled far, and the most well-informed among them has not been to town.
There are not many carriages in the town, and not everyone is eligible to ride a carriage, which is a rarity.
"Wow, this is a horse, why do I think it's similar to the village chief's donkey?"
"This cart looks so big! It's bigger than a donkey cart!"
"It can keep out the wind and the rain, hey, you won't get wet when you transport food!"
Some people are also curious about Qin Huai.
"Sister Ayu said he looks good, really."
"Fart, obviously his clothes are good-looking! If I had such good-looking clothes, I would look good too!"
"Your face is full of booger! Others are so clean, how can you look good?"
"It looks good!"
Qin Huai ignored the various voices around him, he just glanced at the little man who was still jumping on the cliff.
was inexplicably happy.
She looks really healthy.
is a little smaller, like a cat.
Qin Huai stepped on the stone ladder and walked up the cliff step by step.
Here, the driver does not agree to take a detour.
Chijia skillfully took out the silver and threw it into the coachman's arms: "We bought the carriage and shipped the things up."
There are some good things in the car.
The driver is embarrassed: "This—"
Another ingot of silver tossed over.
The coachman grinned to the back of his head: "Okay! You go up first, and I'll help you carry the carriage up! What a big deal, we're not greedy for your money, we're naturally warmhearted!"
As for why you can’t go home after dark, let’s talk about it!
Chijia nodded: "Yes."
He just took two steps when he heard the coachman shouting loudly: "I have candy here, if anyone helps me bring things up, I will give candy to everyone!"
"I am me!!"
The coachman grabbed another handful of copper coins and said loudly: "Go back and tell you adults, come and move the carriage, come ten people, two coins per person!"
A child has run away quickly: "I'll call my father right away!"
The red armor, who lost twenty taels of silver: "..." I sensed on the spot, what is the sinister heart.
Qin Huai walked on the stone ladder step by step. Because it was a stone ladder built by the villagers, it did not appear to be very neat.
Some are long, some are short, some are thick, some are thin, and they are different from those he is used to.
He remembered that one year, his mother took him to Puji Temple to offer incense, and the beautiful stone steps of one thousand and eight steps were also walked up step by step.
But at that time, he didn’t think about anything in his heart, he didn’t want to ask God, he didn’t want to worship Buddha, he just walked numbly.
And now, as he endured the tearing pain in his chest, he wanted to laugh instead.
The nearly seven years of his life were short, but they really bore him.
It's been the last three months, and he wants to be self-willed again.
Once is enough.
"Master, do you want your subordinates to take you up?" Chi Jia followed.
Qin Huai shook his head.
He wanted to go and see for himself.
After walking for an unknown period of time, Qin Huai felt that his legs gradually lost consciousness.
"Cough cough cough—"
He couldn't help coughing again, blood foaming uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth, he skillfully took out the handkerchief and wiped the blood.
looked left and right, there were verdant trees and unknown wildflowers everywhere, and the birds hid their shadows and sang secretly.
The dirty handkerchief stained with blood, I don't know where to throw it.
He simply put it away and stuffed it back into his arms.
Chi Jia frowned.
The color of blood was darker.
"Little brother! I'm here!" Xiao Ayu's excited voice sounded.
The spring breeze blows away the dull atmosphere.
Qin Huai didn't raise his head, but clenched his fists and let out a low breath.
Lift your numb feet and move up step by step.
Xiao Ayu finally saw Qin Huai climb to the last few steps, she was very happy.
When Qin Huai came up completely, little Ayu almost didn't even think about it, so she rushed over and hugged him.
"Little brother, are you here to see Ayu? Are you here to see Ayu? Right! Do you miss Ayu? Ayu misses you so much!"
Qin Huai climbed hundreds of steps on the stone ladder, and his body was weak. Even if Xiao Ayu was small, he couldn't catch it.
The two fell to the ground with a thud, and Qin Huai subconsciously stretched out his hand to protect her little head.
"Ow! Butt hurts!"
Xiao Ayu clutched her hurt little butt, sat up quickly, and went to pull Qin Huai again.
Qin Huai avoided her small paws and got up too.
"I'm sorry, Ayu was wrong..." Xiao Ayu was very guilty, she was overjoyed.
Qin Huai glanced at her, but did not speak, and Xiao Ayu felt even more guilty.
She doesn't know why, but when she sees her little brother, she's so happy, so happy, won't she run away with her anger?
The two fell into the grass, and the surrounding adults saw it and came to see it.
"Ayu, are you alright? Did the fall hurt?" Mrs. Hu hurriedly asked.
"Grandpa, Ayu is fine." Little Ayu patted her paw and held it up for Grandpa Hu to see, "It doesn't hurt at all!"
Chi Jia watched from the side, not wanting to help.
Young Master doesn't like being helped by others.
The children behind carrying things came up one after another, some with a small pot of flowers in their hands, some with a tin of tea, and some with a pair of shoes.
hum hum hum, and put the things on the stone table under the yellow horn tree.
Hu Sanpang was also among them. He spread out a piece of candy he got, took a bite with his teeth, then wiped the saliva on it, and handed it to Xiao Ayu.
"Sister Ayu, come, eat candy, it's sweet!"
For the villagers, sugar is a rare good thing.
Even sugar is a medicine.
If anyone in the family is weak, just drink some sugar water and keep it for two days, and the complexion will be fine.
Therefore, children cherish this hard-won candy and are reluctant to give it to adults, let alone share it.
Wang Sanpang was also reluctant to give up, but sister Ayu was so good, he was reluctant to give up.
"Thank you, Brother San Fatty!"
Xiao Ayu was about to take it, but Shari reached out a hand and stopped her.
is Qin Huai.
"Little brother?"
Qin Huai still didn't speak, but he put his other hand into his arms and took out a paper bag.
opened it in front of Xiao Ayu, and there was a candied haws lying inside.
Because of the long journey, the sugar coating on the outside has almost melted.
There is still a bunch of hawthorn left.
Qin Huai handed it to Xiao Ayu, motioning her to continue.
Xiao Ayu looked at Qin Huai, then at Tang Hulu, then at Qin Huai, and then at Tang Hulu.
Wow cried out.
Qin Huai: Did she cry with joy?
Xiao Ayu: Little brother really doesn't like me anymore! woo woo woo, let me eat sour fruit... woo woo woo...
