Chapter 39 The Mystery of Persimmon (1)

“Go, go, go, why are you just joining in the fun?” This is not something you can do to join in the fun.

 Bai Lie kicked Shi Shi's butt. Shi Shi seemed to have expected it. As soon as Bai Lie raised his foot, he covered his **** and jumped to the side, still laughing.

Bai Lie is not angry.

“Hey, little stone, you have to call me a monkey instead!” Look how fast he jumps!

"Second uncle, he needs to clean up the stones. He hasn't been beaten for a few days. If you catch him and give him a good beating, he will be honest." Qingshan, who came out with a large backpack in one hand, said this.

Bai Lie doesn't care about arguing with children. "He has thick skin. I hate that my hands hurt when I hit him. Okay, you have to go up the mountain. Be careful."

Seeing the two brothers leaving, Shu Yue was a little curious. Bai Lie thought of something and explained: "The one who was scurrying around like a monkey before was your uncle's second son. He is about ten years old this year. His nickname is Shitou; the one at the back is The one who looks mature is Brother Shitou, who is eleven years old and his name is Qingshan.”

The two of them went to school and were given names. He vaguely remembered the name Shi Lei, but he had really forgotten the name Qingshan.

Bai Lie then explained to Shu Yue the reason why they did not go to school today.

There is no primary school in their own village. If they want to go to school, they have to go to the next village.

The primary school in the village next door is just a few adobe houses. On rainy days, it rains heavily outside and lightly inside. The mud road back and forth is not only difficult to walk, but also requires wading across the river. Parents are really not that worried. .

Just like that, it gradually became an unwritten rule of not having classes on rainy days.

Shu Yue was in a trance listening to this.

So there is no need to go to class on rainy days?

Feels so awesome!

Bai Lie didn't know what Shu Yue was thinking. He took Shu Yue back to the house and placed the bamboo box he brought back in front of Shu Yue: "See if you like it."

Shu Yue was stunned: "For me?"

“Yes, it’s just for you.”

Bai Lie saw how hard Shuyue was playing with the kang cabinet, so he thought of making a box for her.

I made it up while Shu Yue was sleeping. He made up half of it, but later he couldn't make it the way he wanted, so he asked the old man for help. It was also at that time that he told them to ask them to help make beef jerky.

He asked Shuyue to take the key, and opened the kang cabinet with her hand in hand, and asked Shuyue to pretend to play by herself.

A child!

In Bai Lie's mind, a four-and-a-half-year-old baby is just the right age to play in the mud. How wonderful it would be for a watery little baby like his daughter to play with the mud and eat it!

Shuyue looked at the box with some surprise. The box was exquisitely made and beautiful. The lid was opened and the inside was divided into four. There were three small grids separated on one side, and the grids were lined with oil paper.

Shuyue looked into the kang cabinet. The outermost box was a rosewood box, which looked very valuable. She put it into the space. After putting it away, she glanced at Bai Lie, which was a bit vague.

Bai Lie said with a smile in his deep brows, "We'll take care of everything in our house. You can do with it how you want. Don't be afraid."

That’s it!

Shu Yue looked at the contents inside: brown sugar, white sugar, fruit sugar, milk powder, malted milk, honey, biscuits and persimmons, three pounds of white rice and two pounds of millet.

She simply put everything into the space, leaving only clothes and daily necessities in the kang cabinet. Then he took the things in the space into the bamboo box. Two pieces of persimmons occupied one space. He took out the package of dried meat that he had opened earlier and put one piece into Bai Lie's mouth first, and the rest occupied another space. ,besides…

Shuyue was thinking about Bai Lie and said, "There are more here."

Bai Lie opened the door of the kang cabinet outside. There were dried sweet potatoes and peach cakes inside. He was about to reach out when he saw Shu Yue staring inside with her little brows furrowed in thought. What's wrong?
