Chapter 48 Tacit understanding

After dinner, Shen Yuxiu and Shen Yulin went to school with their schoolbags on their backs. Grandma Fang also went to her daughter's house to pick up the child as usual. Only Fang Youshun fell behind because Zhao Hui was born today.

Fang Youshun tied the cut sweet potato vines with straw ropes and asked Zhao Hui to carry him on his back. As he led him out, he asked Zhao Hui where his village was and knew that there were different roads. He said cheerfully that he couldn't send him away, so he

He locked the door and waved to Zhao Hui, then got on his tricycle and continued to bring water to the Yellow River.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hui did not actually return to the village, but followed his tricycle to the Yellow River.

An hour later, Zhao Hui carried the small bundle of sweet potato seedlings to the place where he was yesterday and immediately started to work. This time, he followed Fang Youshun's instructions and planted more carefully and attentively than yesterday. Obviously the sweet potato seedlings were not there.

It was too much, but he still planted it for nearly half a day. By the time he finished planting and watered it, it was already dark and he was too tired to lie on the ground and couldn't move.

The moon is high in the sky, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. Not far away there are crickets chirping softly, and there are mosquitoes humming in my ears.

Zhao Hui lay on his back next to the sweet potato seedlings he had planted, looking at the clear night sky. His heart felt calmer than ever before, and he could not think of going home at all.

That home is no longer as important to him as the sweet potato vines around him at this moment.

At least as long as he can take good care of these sweet potato seedlings, the sweet potato seedlings will be able to produce sweet potatoes for him to eat.

As for the few people at home, no matter how kind he was to them and no matter how much food he brought back to them, they would still watch him starve to death without even giving him a bite to eat.

When it was just dawn, Zhao Hui opened his eyes and felt the itching on his face and body. He knew it was a mosquito bite, but he didn't care at all. He looked at the sweet potato seedlings beside him and picked up the broken pot.

So I got up and went down to the river to continue watering.

He kept in mind what Fang Youshun said: the seedlings that were just planted for the first three days must not lack water, otherwise they would not survive easily.

In this way, he seemed to be tireless, traveling back and forth between the river and the wasteland again and again. When the sun rose, his sweet potato seedlings had already been watered by him, and just as he sat on the river bank

While I was taking a rest wiping the sweat from my forehead, I saw a man in the distance on the east side of Dadong riding a tricycle to fetch water from the river.

In his limited life, he had only seen Fang Youshun riding a car like that yesterday. He squinted and looked at it carefully. Zhao Hui felt that he had recognized the right person, and immediately strode over. When he arrived, he saw Fang Youshun.

, silently picked up the water container in the car and started to help him fetch water.

Fang Youshun didn't know where he came from. After being stunned for a moment, he let him go.

After filling the water, Fang Youshun turned around and asked him, "Have you eaten this morning?"

Zhao Hui was a little embarrassed by his question, but he still shook his head honestly.

"Then you just wait here to fetch water for me today. If you fetch water for me for a day, I will take care of your food for the day, okay?" Fang Youshun asked him with a smile while standing next to the tricycle.

"Okay, I'll definitely wait here." Zhao Hui agreed almost immediately, blurting out his words so quickly that Fang Youshun would regret it.

"Okay, then you can find a cool place to wait first. I have to run several times in the morning." After saying that, Fang Youshun got on the tricycle and walked forward. On this field road, the tricycle went crookedly while riding.

It's not fast, but it won't be long before it's gone.

Zhao Hui just waited quietly by the river. He didn't follow Fang Youshun's instructions to find a cool place, so he just waited at the place where Fang Youshun left. After a long time, he finally came back with the steamed buns as he wished.

The direction is smooth.

Zhao Hui took the steamed bun from him with some embarrassment, and started to fetch water again. At the end of the day, he felt more satisfied than ever before.

Zhao Hui likes this method of exchanging physical strength for food, but in fact he also knows that people don't actually need his help, they just pity him and find excuses for him to stutter.

However, the land is really dry now. Even on the edge of the Yellow River, it is hard to find wild vegetables. He can't find a few wild vegetables in a day, and he can only shamelessly use this method in exchange for some food.

of.

From that day on, the old and the young seemed to have a tacit understanding. When Fang Youshun came to the Yellow River to bring water early in the morning, he would always bring steamed bread directly, and sometimes he would also bring some pickles. Zhao Hui would bring it early every morning.

Waiting quietly by the Yellow River, waiting for Fang Youshun to fetch water from the river and earn some food on the way.

In this way, these two people who were obviously incompatible gradually became familiar with each other.

Gradually, Fang Youshun came to know why he was at the Yellow River early in the morning, and followed him to see the sweet potato seedlings he planted. He also learned that he had a pair of unreliable parents, and he felt sorry for this child who had not been treated well by his parents.

, more sympathy.

And Zhao Hui also knew that the little girl who pulled him back from death that day was named Shen Yuxiu. She and the man named Shen Yulin were brothers and sisters. They were both children of Fang Youshun's son-in-law's family. He also knew that this was a very harmonious family.

.

But, maybe the little girl gave him the food he needed most when he needed it most. Even though the little girl didn't say a few words to him after that day, every time he went to Fang's house, his

His eyes unconsciously wanted to find that little girl. Even if he had been with Fang Youshun for a long time, he could not surpass it and wanted to get close to her.

As summer enters, the weather gets hotter and hotter, but there is still no sign of rain in the sky, which scares people to the point of being on tenterhooks.

Fortunately, God has not cut off their livelihood. Starting from the middle of July, this land will occasionally receive sporadic light rains. Although these light rains only wet the land at most, they can still be regarded as giving the crops a chance to grow.

Opportunity.

As weeds and vegetables began to appear in the fields, people finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt more hopeful.

With sporadic light rains, the fields were no longer so dry, and Fang Youshun no longer came to the Yellow River to bring water every day. Instead, Zhao Hui got up early every morning to pick the freshest wild vegetables.

After washing them in the river, they were sent to Fang's house early.

Although he knew that this little thing was definitely not as good as the braised bread that others gave him, he felt more comfortable doing this.

Zhao Hui has been delivering wild vegetables for a long time, and he has met Shen Yuxiu more often. Shen Yuxiu has gradually become accustomed to this person who often appears at the door of her house. Just like today, she opened the door to see Zhao Hui.

He came over with a pot of wild vegetables and immediately laughed.

"You're here, come in quickly, we can have dinner soon." Shen Yuxiu let him in as usual. After all, this man sometimes brought wild vegetables just in time for breakfast, and his grandfather would always keep him at home.

For eating.

Zhao Hui looked at her bright smile, scratched his head in embarrassment, and followed her in with the vegetable basin.

The longer they get along, the more he likes this family and the less he wants to go back to his own home.
