The next morning, two light and comfortable carriages quietly went out of the village, all the way north, to the north of Qingjiang county.
The twins knelt down on the carriage and sat by the window. Looking back at the village between the green mountains and green waters, Xiaobao said excitedly: "brother, you see, our village is getting smaller and smaller."
Dabao squeezed out of the carriage. "I can't see anyone."
Sitting on the other side of the carriage, song Xintong watched anxiously as most of them leaned out and hurriedly pulled their clothes to carry them back. "The carriage is running so fast, you two should not fall out."
"Don't worry, sister. I caught it." Said Dabao.
Xiaobao also nodded, "I hold my brother's
"You have so much strength? If the carriage passes through the potholes and suddenly jumps up, you two will fly out like chickens Song Xintong and two people said, "after the body can not be out."
"Ha ha, chicken." Xiaobao covered his mouth and giggled, "brother, you are a chicken."
"You are, shorter than me." Dabao sat in the carriage and looked down. "Brother, I can see your head."
Xiaobao also immediately sat upright, straightened his back and raised his head, "elder sister, do you think my brother and I are tall?"
Song Xintong looked at the obviously short half inch of Xiaobao, "do you usually not eat vegetables?"
Xiaobao's eyes were a little guilty. He turned around and looked around. He dodged and said, "no, sister is staring at what I eat."
"Don't you eat when you don't stare at you?" Song Xintong's voice suddenly sank, "you see, my brother eats vegetables every time, and he also eats cucumbers and radishes that he doesn't like. You have to eat more to grow tall, you know?"
Xiaobao bowed his head and did not speak.
As soon as Dabao saw Xiaobao's appearance, he knew that he was embarrassed. He begged song Xintong for Xiaobao's mercy. "Sister, Xiaobao also ate, but I didn't eat much."
"Yes? Did my brother finish the vegetables? Xiaobao, no vegetables? " Song Xintong helplessly looked at Xiaobao and gave him a step: "the elder brother can't eat vegetables at noon. He gave them all to his younger brother."
Dabao nodded, "give it to my brother at noon."
Song Xintong looked at Xiaobao, "what do you think of Xiaobao?"
Xiaobao looked at Dabao gratefully, then looked at Song Xintong, embarrassed to say: "sister, brother also eat, we all grow tall."
"We should eat more meat, eat more food, not sugar and dried meat cakes." Dabao is a strict teaching assistant, once again stressed, "right, sister."
"Yes." Looking at Xiaobao's blushing face, song Xintong knew that he had eaten a lot of sugar and cakes, and he couldn't eat them at dinner every time. Taking advantage of the fact that he had been eating and living together these days, he corrected his bad habit, "do you remember how tall my father is?"
"Daddy is so tall. We should look at him like this." Twins are looking up to the action, "higher than brother-in-law."
Song Xintong thinks that his father is not as tall as Lu Xiucai. It should be that the twins are much taller in this year, and his height is always in the memory, so he says so.
"Yes, you two should eat more and eat less snacks. You will be taller than your father in the future." Song Xintong said and opened the window curtain of the carriage, looked out, "it's going to the county."
"Sister, shall we go to the county town for a while?" Xiao Bao's eyes lit up immediately and asked excitedly.
"Didn't you go to play before?" Song Xintong remembers taking them to the county in February and March.
"It's been a long time." Xiaobao holds song Xintong's arm and says, "go, sister."
"No, we're going to Lin county. We have to get there before dark." Song Xintong thought that there was nothing interesting or strange about the county, "when we get to the next county at noon, we can go for a stroll and see what's different between their county and ours, OK?"
Xiaobao thought about it, then nodded, "our county is definitely better."
Dabao thinks the same.
Children have never been to other places, in their eyes the most prosperous place is Qingjiang County, so naturally think so.
"Then I'll know." Song Xintong said.
Dabao held his cheek and looked at the busy streets outside the carriage. "Sister, what are we going to do in Lin county?"
"Ah Jie told you before, did you forget?" Song Xintong pinched Dabao's soft, white cheek, "bad memory? It's going to be on the board. "
"I know." Xiaobao quickly said, for fear of being punished late: "we're going to visit my father's father and mother."
"It's ah Yeh and ah Nai." Dabao corrected, "how old are ye and Nai?"
"I don't know." Song Xintong thought for a moment, "about the age of mother-in-law Qiu?"
"If only they were still there, I could give all the copper I've hidden to you and your milk." Xiaobao grabbed the small purse hanging from his waist and said, "it's good that my father and mother are still here. I'll give them all my bean cakes."
"We Xiaobao are so filial. My father and my grandfather will know." Song Xintong touched Xiaobao's soft and smooth hair. "When we get there, remember to burn more paper money for them to buy big houses and cakes."
"Good." Xiaobao is ready to respond.
Dabao also heavily nodded his head, "but also give more silver pimples, gold pimples."
"Well, you'll do it then, won't you?" Song Xintong asked.
Dabao nodded wisely, "OK."
The carriage rattles through Qingjiang county. After leaving the city gate, it goes to another official road. The county next door is one hundred miles to the north.
Song Xintong moved to the front of the carriage and sat next to Lu Yunkai, who was driving the horse. He took a look at the carriage in front of Da Ya, and then asked, "can we get to the next county before noon?"
Lu Yun drove his horse forward at a fast pace. The carriage was not fast. It took almost two hours to travel in an hour. "It's probably three minutes in the afternoon."
Song Xintong looked at the rising sun, and then took out a straw hat. "Do you want to wear a hat? Don't get hot."
Lu Yun took a look at the straw hat, which was wrapped in fancy cloth. The seams at the corners were not very tight. He knew that song Xintong had made it himself. He nodded, "then you can bring it to me."
Song Xintong brought it to Lu Yunkai, and then looked at it carefully. He found that the scholar's temperament was lost by the flowery straw hat. After hesitation, he still didn't say, forget it. Although it's not good-looking, it can shade, isn't it?
