    Chapter 29

    The early morning sun shone on the ground and on Sibao's pretty cheeks, passing Jiang Shuxin's eyes.

    She put down what was in her hand and stood in front of the Four Treasures.

    "Yeah, Trojan; it took my boss's strength to move back."

    At Li Chu's house that day, Jiang Shuxin was busy all afternoon before finishing the Trojan horse.

    "Thank you, thank you." Sibao tilted his head and stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Shuxin's arm, and whispered thanks.

    Jiang Shuxin listened to her thanking him and was noncommittal. Think about it and ask her again: "Do you like it?"

    Sibao nodded without hesitation: "I like it, I like it very much!"

    Seeing her nodding so happily, Jiang Shuxin was inexplicably and somewhat appetizing, and she asked calmly, "Do you like me or the Trojan horse?"

    "Ah?" Si Bao didn't know why she asked that, but she just paused and said immediately, "I like you."

    Jiang Shuxin felt a little regretful after asking, but she couldn't help hooking her lips when she heard Si Bao's words.

    With a smile on her face, Sibao went back to the house to study her little Trojan horse, while Jiang Shuxin continued to prepare breakfast.

    In recent days, because of the bad weather, Jiang Shuxin was unable to continue fishing, and she hadn't planned to go out to sea in the past few days. So after breakfast, she took the hatchet and went to the back hill of the village.

    Four Treasures also followed her, but the mountain road was not easy to walk. Jiang Shuxin was worried that she would not be able to take care of her and stumbled upon her again, so she sent the person back when she passed by the Yu family compound.

    Four Treasures were not happy at first, but Jiang Shuxin insisted that she would be able to pick her up at noon and go home together, so she agreed not to go with her.

    "Then you're coming." Sibao leaned against the door frame, looking at Jiang Shuxin and whispering.

    Jiang Shuxin nodded, rubbed the two messy buns on top of her head with her hands, and sent her to the door: "It will definitely come, and I will bring you roasted sweet potatoes. Come in."

    Hearing Jiang Shuxin's assurance and saying that she would also bring her roasted sweet potatoes to eat, the Four Treasures went into the house with confidence.

    Jiang Shuxin saw her entering the house and went straight to the back mountain.

    The back mountain is still shrouded in lush green plants, but due to the rain yesterday, the road was muddy, and a dog would gnaw on the mud if the footsteps were careless.

    Jiang Shuxin walked steadily, and after walking along the road for a while, he entered the mountain.

    A large bamboo forest was the destination of Jiang Shuxin's trip. She took off the hat on her head and set it aside. She picked up a hatchet, and selected an adult bamboo with uniform thickness, and chopped several times in a circle from the root. The knife, in the blink of an eye, chopped the thigh-thick bamboo to the ground.

    The long bamboo pole fell to the ground with a bang, and even a low plant was bent.

    Jiang Shuxin walked along the bamboo pole to the top, without blinking, waving his knife to chop the top of the bamboo pole to the ground.

    Pinning the hatchet to his waist, Jiang Shuxin walked back to the middle of the bamboo pole, lifted the bamboo pole from the middle, and put the bamboo pole on his shoulders with a turn of both hands.

    "girl!"

    After walking a few steps, Jiang Shuxin suddenly heard someone calling her from behind, so she had no choice but to turn her head again.

    A young girl was standing where she had just chopped bamboo with a basket and a hat in her hand.

    "That, your bamboo hat." Seeing Jiang Shuxin turning back, the girl said a little embarrassedly, and raised the hat in her hand towards Jiang Shuxin.

    Only then did Jiang Shuxin remember what she had just dropped, she bent down and put down the bamboo, walked to the girl with a cold expression, and took the hat from her hand.

    In a low voice: "Thank you."

    The girl waved her hand quickly, with a blush on her delicate face: "No, you're welcome."

    Jiang Shuxin stuttered a little when she heard her words, and subconsciously looked at her one more time. After seeing the person in front of her, she felt a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while, so she didn't think about it any more, nodded slightly at her, turned around and left.

    Picking up the bamboo pole, Jiang Shuxin saw the girl walking beside him, frowning a little puzzled, but didn't say anything, and left on his own.

    The girl followed her.

    "You are Jiang Er. Listen to my mother. Some time ago, you married the Four Treasures, didn't you?"

    This made Jiang Shuxin pause in her footsteps, but she didn't stop, she didn't even turn her head, she just said without emotion: "Who are you?"

    "My name is Wang Qin, and Aunt Wang is my mother. In the past, the Four Treasures were lost, and my mother could always find her."

    Wang Qin still spoke softly and softly, with a somewhat casual tone, as if she was telling a friend about a common thing.

    Jiang Shuxin then turned to look at her, it turned out to be Aunt Wang's daughter.

    But she didn't think it would make her feel too emotional, and she still said in a flat tone: "Oh, then I have to thank your mother."

    Wang Qin shook her head disapprovingly and followed Jiang Shuxin in her footsteps. She said, "My mother has always used the Four Treasures as her daughter, so I don't need to thank you."

    Jiang Shuxin has long legs and big steps, so she couldn't slow down, so Wang Qin struggled to follow her, speaking with a slight panting. Jiang Shuxin could hear it naturally. She walked to an open space and put down the bamboo pole on her shoulders.

    "If you don't need to thank you, then don't thank you. Don't follow me. I still have work to do." Jiang Shuxin said coldly towards Wang Qin as she walked towards a field full of vine leaves.

    Without waiting for Wang Qin's reaction, she walked into the field and dug with a machete.

    Wang Qin didn't leave, she still stood by the side, looked at Jiang Shuxin's back, pinched the bamboo basket with her fingers, and said hesitantly, "The sweet potatoes in this field have been dug up... …”

    Sure enough, in the next instant, Jiang Shuxin stood up and kicked the dead vines aside with his feet.

    He whispered softly, "Really."

    After speaking, Jiang Shuxin returned to the open space and continued to carry the bamboo pole, without intending to stop, and walked towards the way down the mountain.

    That Wang Qin also quickly followed.

    The two stood one after the other, speechless all the way.

    When he was about to arrive at Yu's house, Wang Qin couldn't hold back and spoke:

    "I still have a basket. If you don't dislike it, you can take a few."

    She was carrying a basket full of sweet potatoes.

    Jiang Shuxin just glanced at it, thought about it, and did not refuse, she reached out and took a few small ones inside.

    "You can't take it for nothing, I'll give you money."

    Jiang Shuxin put the sweet potato on the ground, took out a few pieces of silver from his arms, and put it in Wang Qin's bamboo basket.

    Without giving Wang Qin a chance to refuse, Jiang Shuxin picked up the sweet potato and left with the bamboo pole on his back.

    Wang Qin stood there, holding the few pieces of silver in her palm, staring at Jiang Shuxin's back as she walked away in a daze.

    "sister!"

    A well-behaved voice called her back to God, she turned around and looked at the person behind her, it was her little sister Wang Xiaoyun.

    Wang Xiaoyun had just left the Shen family's free school and was about to go back to eat, but she didn't expect to meet her sister on the way.

    "What are you doing standing here?" Wang Xiaoyu walked towards Wang Qin with a puzzled face.

    Wang Qin didn't say a word, and took Wang Xiaoyu to the house, her cheeks that were not white were obviously red.

    On the other end, Jiang Shuxin carried bamboo and sweet potatoes to the door of Lao Yu's house.

    Four Treasures had been waiting at the door for a long time. Aunt Yu was afraid that she would run around on her own and that she would not be able to see the outside of the house, so she did not close the courtyard door, and blocked the door with a half-person-high plank.

    Sitting on the small bench, the Four Treasures showed a messy top of his head.

    Seeing Jiang Er, Si Bao stood up and smiled sweetly.

    Aunt Yu came out of the house, quickly removed the wooden board, and picked up the sweet potato in her arms for Jiang Shuxin.

    "How about having lunch here?" Aunt Yu said enthusiastically.

    Sibao looked at the sweet potato that was carried away by Aunt Yu, and then looked at Jiang Er who was standing outside the house carrying a bamboo, and suddenly reached out to Aunt Yu.

    "What's wrong?" Aunt Yu was puzzled.

    Jiang Shuxin knew what she meant, so she rejected Aunt Yu's kindness: "No, I'll take the Four Treasures back to eat, you can hold the sweet potato for her."

    It turned out to be like this, Aunt Yu didn't stay much when she saw this, she put the sweet potato into Si Bao's hands, let her hold it well, and sent the two away.

    Jiang Shuxin took the four treasures all the way to the outside of the village. It was lunch time. Those who did not work all went home, and some even stood at the door with their bowls to eat; seeing Jiang Er with the four treasures, they all endured Couldn't stop looking at it.

    "That fool found a good family and found the second child of the Jiang family."

    An old lady in shabby clothes stood in front of her house with a bowl that was broken several times and whispered to the people in the next yard.

    Aunt Liu lived in the yard next door. Seeing this, she shook her head and said disdainfully, "I thought that Aunt Wang would buy her back to be her daughter-in-law, but she actually entered Jiang's house. , shit luck."

    Jiang Shuxin passed by the door of the two families as if no one was there, Sibao turned her head to look at the aunt who was talking, then quickly turned her head back, and quietly grabbed Jiang Er's left hand that was hanging aside.

    "What's wrong?" Jiang Shuxin, who was caught, glanced at his left hand, took advantage of the situation, and asked casually.

    Four Treasures did not speak, and followed Jiang Shuxin a few steps, but the sweet potato in his arms could not be held because of the lack of one hand, and a few fell to the ground.

    Before Jiang Shuxin could speak, the aunt over there sneered: "Look, this fool is a fool, he can't even hold so many sweet potatoes."

    Although the distance was a little far, Jiang Shuxin could hear it clearly. She threw the bamboo on her shoulders on the ground, bent down to pick up the sweet potato for the Four Treasures, and stuffed it back into her arms.

    Four Treasures hugged the melon in her arms tightly and looked at Jiang Er at a loss: "I don't, I'm not stupid."

    "Well." Jiang Shuxin nodded and patted the ashes on her sleeve, "It's okay, it's just gone, you just want me to hold you, don't you?"

    Jiang Shuxin's tone was casual and somewhat soft; so the Four Treasures nodded quickly.

    "They, talk nonsense."

    Jiang Shuxin didn't intend to bother with the old woman, picked up the bamboo, glanced at the man, and then coaxed the Four Treasures in a light tone: "They still have to talk while eating, and sooner or later they will choke to death at their doorstep."

    "go home."

    After finishing speaking, he left with the Four Treasures.

    Aunt Liu from the next room huddled at the door with a bowl in her hand, and joked: "You are really old and your brain is confused, and you dare to talk nonsense in front of Jiang Er, you are not afraid that she will be unhappy and discount your thighs. already?"

    The aunt, who was still full of air just now, was frightened after Jiang Shuxin glanced at it. Now, when she heard what Aunt Liu said, the whole person became even more frightened, and the bowl in her hand began to shake.

    She was really confused. You know, Jiang Er broke the seven-foot man's thigh with his own hands a few years ago; when she came to Jiang Er's house, she would break like a branch. .

    The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, the aunt hurriedly ran back to the house with the bowl.

    On the other side, Jiang Shuxin had already arrived home with the Four Treasures.

    "Do you want to eat roasted or steamed?" Jiang Shuxin asked as soon as he put down the bamboo and took the sweet potato in the arms of the Four Treasures.

    The Four Treasures looked a little unhappy, tapped the sweet potato with their muddy fingers, and said hesitantly, "How about all of them?"

    "That's all."

    Jiang Shuxin was very talkative, and when he went to the side, he started to make a fire and cook.

    Sibao stood outside the house, the sun was high, and her face was flushed. She looked at Jiang Er who was cooking on the other side. She scooped a basin of water into the water tank and brought it to Jiang Er.

    Then she squatted down by herself and washed her hands once and for all.

    After washing her hands, Sibao whispered to her: "Jiang Er, wash your hands."

    Jiang Shuxin looked at her little face full of kindness, and couldn't help but smile.
