The next morning after breakfast, Zhang Taiping started picking osmanthus flowers. Today, Sunday, Yaya didn't go to class yet, so she got up early, stood under the tree and asked, "Dad, are you going to make osmanthus cake again?"

I remember the delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cake last year. I stuck out my tongue and licked my lips while talking.

"Well, your mother will make you delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cake tonight." Zhang Taiping didn't even need to climb the tree, he just stepped on the stone table under the tree and could reach the sweet-scented osmanthus on the tree with his hand.

"It's great, it's great, I can eat the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my mother again!" The little girl clapped her hands happily and jumped up and down.

There was a sheet spread on the ground. Zhang Taiping picked it up and threw it on the ground. Then the little girl ran over to pick it up and put it in the dustpan.

After a while, another little head stuck out from the door of the central courtyard, and came to play with Yaya every day.

"Tiantian, come here quickly." Yaya waved to Tiantian and said, "Come here and help pick up the sweet-scented osmanthus. There are too many."

I ran here every day, and the two little girls ran together under the tree like two happy butterflies.

"Is this osmanthus? What are you doing with the osmanthus?" Tiantian asked Yaya.

"Let's make osmanthus cake. Osmanthus can make delicious osmanthus cake. My mother is going to make osmanthus cake tonight. You can come over and eat it tonight."

"Well, then I have to tell my mother first that I will not go back to my godfather's place at night."

"Okay, I'll go with you later." Yaya nodded and said solemnly.

Zhang Taiping watched the conversation between the two little girls under the tree and felt very happy. These are what people often call best friends. Although the two are not biological sisters, their relationship when they grow up will definitely be no different from that of biological sisters.

After picking a dustpan full of flowers, Zhang Taiping stopped, took the dustpan with the two girls back to the front room, put the dustpan on the small table, and together the three of them picked the petals and put them in a basin.

Before I finished picking in the yard, I remembered my little friend’s shout: “Yaya, it’s out!”

Yaya looked at the unfinished osmanthus branches in the dustpan and said, "Dad, Heizi asked us to go out for roller skating..."

"Go ahead." Zhang Taiping said with a smile, "But don't go to the river when roller skating. Be careful, you know?"

"Yeah, I got it!" The little girl nodded seriously, and then she and Tiantian went out with their roller skates.

Looking at the two little girls flying out like swallows, Zhang Taiping felt a little emotional in his heart. Children have simple minds and simple lives, and can easily be happy. Once they grow up, they have more thoughts and worries.

When you grow up, you worry about your family, and even worry about your own children in the future. But who can avoid this kind of worry?

While he was in a daze, Wukong wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and reached out to grab the sweet-scented osmanthus branches in the dustpan. In Wukong's eyes, these sweet-scented osmanthus flowers were all money. Here, it would be easier than breaking them off from the tree.

There is too much, and it wants to get something for nothing.

Zhang Taiping slapped Ben's hand and said, "You can't touch the flowers here. If you want to spend them, go and break them yourself."

Wukong scratched his head and scratched his head, but he still couldn't think of any way to get something for nothing. In the end, he had to ask his wife to go to the mountain to pick peach blossoms.

In the evening, Cai Yazhi went into the kitchen to make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and kept some in the space. These were given to Cai Xiaomei and Fan Ming.

The next day, when it was still dark, Zhang Taiping set off from home without disturbing anyone. He did not drive this time, but rode a motorcycle directly. After entering the city, he headed directly towards Xianyang Airport without stopping. He had promised to go to Luoyang before.

The sisters will provide them with financial aid to complete their studies, and now they need to deal with this matter.

With the existence of space, Zhang Taiping easily found the residence of the two sisters. It was a very remote village with a hill not far away. Outside the courtyard was a one-meter-high stone wall. Zhang Taiping

When Taiping stood outside, he could see what was going on inside without having to stand on tiptoes.

Only the younger sister of the two sisters was seen, and there was a young woman standing in front of her. Zhang Taiping did not rush in, but stood outside the courtyard wall and listened.

The young woman seemed to be the little girl's teacher. The little girl didn't go to school these days. The responsible female teacher came to find out and said a lot of words of encouragement and encouragement for her to go to school, but the little girl just lowered her head and said nothing.

Her little feet scraped gently against the ground. The cloth shoes she wore had a hole in the front, and her white thumb curled up at the hole.

After talking a lot, the dry-mouthed female teacher saw that the little girl still looked indifferent, and she was very disappointed, shook her head slightly and left.

After the teacher left, the little girl raised her head and looked at the direction where the teacher left with some sadness in her eyes. It was heartbreaking for a little girl to show such sadness. She opened her mouth and softly said three words, "I'm sorry!"

"But the female teacher who was far away could not hear it.

The little girl looked up at the sky for a while, then sat on the stone slab in the yard. After a while, she hugged her knees and started crying. Her shoulders were shaking slightly, and she was obviously very sad. Even Zhang Taiping didn't notice when he came up.

.

"Why didn't you agree to the teacher just now to continue going back to school?" Zhang Taiping asked aloud.

The sudden sound startled the little girl. She raised her head in panic and saw that it was the tall uncle who had helped her two days ago. She breathed a sigh of relief and quickly wiped the tears on her face with her sleeves.

"I don't have any extra money," the little girl said softly.

"Didn't that teacher just say that as long as you go to school, she can let the school waive your tuition fees?"

When facing Zhang Taiping, the little girl did not lower her head or say anything like she did when facing the teacher. She put her head on her knees and said: "The doctor said that my grandfather can't exert much effort after he recovers. He can't make money anymore. My sister plans to quit school to make money to take care of my grandfather."

, I can’t let my sister make money alone, and I also plan to quit school and make money.”

A little girl said such words with a solemn face, which made people laugh, but Zhang Taiping couldn't laugh. He asked softly: "Then do you want to continue going to school?"

The little girl hesitated for a while and said, "I think so, but..."

"As long as you want to go to school, it's fine." Zhang Taiping interrupted the little girl and asked, "Why don't you see your sister?"

"My sister took grandpa to the hospital for a check-up and asked me to stay at home as a gatekeeper." The little girl said, and then she remembered and asked, "Uncle, how did you find our home?"

"It brought me here." Zhang Taiping put his hand behind his back and took out Xiao Zi from the space, then handed it to him and said.

The little girl looked in surprise at Xiao Zi, who was standing on Zhang Taiping's arm and looking at the surroundings with some confusion, and said, "What kind of animal is it? Can it recognize our family?"

"This is a sable, its name is Xiao Zi." Zhang Taiping said, "It has seen you two days ago, so it remembers your scent and can find your home."

"It's so amazing." The little girl said, "Isn't it the same as a puppy?"

Xiao Zi heard that she was compared to a puppy, and she squeaked at the little girl very unhappy.

"Xiao Zi, come to sister, sister will give you delicious food." The little girl quickly forgot what she had just done, stood up, clapped her hands and said to Xiao Zi.

But Xiao Zi still resented her for comparing herself to a puppy just now, and didn't even notice that the little girl jumped from Zhang Taiping's arm to his shoulder.

Then the little girl invited Zhang Taiping into the house, poured a bowl of hot water into a flowered porcelain bowl and said: "There is no tea, uncle, please drink water."

Zhang Taiping took a sip of water and put down the bowl and looked at the furnishings in the room. There was no expensive furniture. There was a black and white TV on a small table, which was similar to the one in Zhang Taiping's home two years ago. There were also other things in the room.

It smelled like medicine, but it was kept very clean. It was obviously the work of the two sisters.

When the little girl saw Zhang Taiping looking at the TV, she said, "The TV doesn't receive many channels." She was about to turn on the TV.

"No need." Zhang Taiping said, "I'll just sit down and let's talk."

"Oh." The little girl sat down. She was no longer as lively as the last time we met at home, and said a little cautiously, "What are you talking about?"

Zhang Taiping smiled: "Aren't you afraid of being alone at home? Aren't you afraid that I am a bad person?"

"Don't be afraid!" the little girl said with certainty.

"Oh? Why?" Zhang Taiping asked curiously.

The little girl smiled brightly and said: "Because I feel that uncle is a good person, not a bad person."

Zhang Taiping smiled, thinking in his heart that after all, he is still a child, and his thoughts are still a bit simple. Bad people will not put labels on their faces, but he did not say anything. It is not a bad thing to be able to maintain a little more innocence. After a few

When you get older, you will naturally know how to guard against others. Being too wary of this society too early is not necessarily a good thing, but a regrettable thing.
