The casual life of the flat space

"Ah, I went catching insects with my dad. This is what my mother asked me to give you, please keep it." Zhuzi said as he put the bag he was carrying on his shoulder on the ground.

Bai Tieying listened to the sound of the falling to the ground and couldn't help but sigh that Zhuzi's family was also very practical! This must be about 40 or 50 kilograms.

"Where's Xiaohua? Why don't you two come and play if you have nothing to do!"

"She went to wash clothes with my mother. Okay, come over when you have time."

"Wait a minute!" Bai Tieying went back to the east room, wrapped a bag of pine nuts in paper and came out. "Here are pine nuts, take them back and eat them with Xiaohua."

"No, that's not necessary! Last time you gave us duck eggs and took back walnuts, my mother scolded us!"

"What are you doing? This is not a good thing. It can be found in the mountains and fields. Take it. You can have some for fun! But you are not allowed to go!"

Zhuzi failed to refuse and turned to run, but Bai Tieying grabbed him and said, "Do you think I gave you too little?"

"No, no, that's not it!" Zhuzi suddenly stuttered.

"Take it. We grew up together. When did pine nuts become a good thing? If you're sorry, please ask your mother if she has any more ground rings. I want to plant a few in the garden."

"Oh, OK, got it, thank you, thank you!" Zhuzi said stutteringly, and ran away with Songzier in his arms. Bai Tieying didn't know what happened to him, so he put the bag into the space and turned back to sleep.

Zhuzi ran for dozens of meters before he stopped and looked back. It was so scary. Tieying's tone of voice just now was just like his aunt's! Especially that pull, the strength was exactly the same as his aunt's!

This year, during the Spring Festival, he went to his aunt's house. His aunt wanted to give him and Xiaohua some New Year's money, but his mother said no, so they tore each other in front of the courtyard gate. His new clothes were made just for the Spring Festival! They were torn like that!

"You should stay away from Tieying next time. What if he tears my clothes? Mom said that the New Year's money is not enough to buy cloth. The key is that I will have to wear patched clothes for several years! Xiaohua is even more pitiful. She has to pick up clothes that are smaller than mine. Won't they have even more patches? Well, let her eat all the pine seeds in this bag!"

Zhuzi was walking forward while thinking, when he suddenly bumped into someone. When he looked up, it was Huzi standing on the side of the road.

"Brother Zhuzi, what have you been doing?"

"I went to Tieying's house to bring her some mountain products."

"What are you holding in your hand? Why do I smell pine nuts?"

"You have a dog nose!" Zhuzi was afraid to give some to Huzi, so he ran home quickly. He wanted to keep some for Xiaohua!

"Why are you running away? I'm just asking you something! Can pine nuts be as delicious as the buns my mom steamed? Look at you, you stingy little brat!"

After Hu Zi shouted a few words at Zhu Zi, he suddenly realized what was going on, "He said he was going to deliver mountain products, so were these pine nuts given by Sister Tieying?" Hu Zi changed his mind and ran home.

"Mom, mom!" Hu Zi started shouting before he even entered the yard.

"What are you doing? You're calling for the soul!"

"When will our family send mountain products to Sister Tieying? Can you take me with you?"

"Are the buns stuffed with eggplant not tasty, or are they stuffed with mushrooms not tasty? Give them all to her. If you want to eat them, you have to wait until the dishes are cooked!"

"Well, just send less. I saw Zhuzi bring back a bag of pine nuts after delivering the nuts! Such a big bag!" Hu Zi said as he measured it with his hand.

"Hey, Tieying is such a brave kid! The nearest pine forest might even be there after half an hour of walking! Listen to me, the village chief specifically said yesterday that you are not allowed to go into the mountains. If you dare to go, I will break your legs!"

"Ah......" Hu Zi squatted on the ground and howled, "No, no, I want to eat pine nuts, I want to eat pine nuts!"

"Eat, eat, eat! You look like Song Nut!" Aunt Zhang kicked him. "Stop crying! I'll get her some and you can take it to her. I'm embarrassed to ask a child for anything."

"Mom...Mom, you're the best!" Hu Zi immediately got up from the ground and hugged his mother. "By the way, Mom, Sister Tieying said that the buns you make are the second most delicious thing she has ever eaten!"

"Really? Haha, then what's the most delicious thing?"

"She didn't say."

"Didn't I tell you that you don't know how to ask? Is your mouth used for eating all day? What's the mouth for? You are nine years old, and eight years old in one year! Don't you know that you can't use your mouth to ask?"

"I asked, but she didn't say!" Hu Zi immediately felt aggrieved.

"You're just as good as me! You're just like your dead father! Bring me a basket and go to the shed."

"Hey!" Hu Zi immediately went to the kitchen to find a basket, and followed Aunt Zhang into the shed.

Aunt Zhang packed some dried vegetables first, then felt embarrassed to exchange them for other people's pine nuts, so she added some mountain products and put a basket together for Hu Zi to deliver to Bai Tieying.

Hu Zi was naturally very satisfied with his visit to Bai Tieying's house. Not only did he get a small bag of pine nuts, but Bai Tieying also put a handful of trays in the basket.

As a result, Huzi showed off to his friends along the way, and even shared a few trays with those who were close to him. Soon, the adults in the dozen or so households behind him also remembered this incident after hearing what the child said, so they asked the child to deliver the three or five kilograms of food to this family and the two or three kilograms of food to that family.

After being woken up by Hu Zi who was delivering mountain products, Bai Tieying also woke up completely. After sending the people away, she woke up Bai Tiexiong, otherwise she would not be able to sleep at night if she slept upside down.

The rest of the day was spent with the constant "Is Tieying home?" She was also wondering why there were three or five children here. After asking Youfu, she guessed that Huzi was playing a propaganda role, which really made her angry and amused.

Doesn't this mean he's exchanging mountain products for her food? No wonder Grandpa Wu told her so much in the morning! So it's like "let it be"! She thought Grandpa Wu meant the same thing to her, but it turned out that no one took it seriously, and Grandpa Wu saw it and told her to keep a normal mind.

But think about it, there's nothing to be angry about. If she were a few years older, maybe there would be a different result. In the old world, if a ten-year-old child told you that she wanted to start a business, wouldn't adults think it was a joke?

The "food exchange" of the day even reached a peak in the afternoon, as the dozens of children in front heard about it and went home to ask their parents for advice. So one of Bai Tieying's siblings was responsible for chatting with friends and sharing new game methods, while the other kept shuttling between the yard and the east room.

In the evening, when everyone who had gone out to work came back, they talked about this matter during dinner. The careful ones started to think, "Isn't it possible that Tieying gave away dozens of kilograms of pine nuts that day? Could it be that Tieying really has connections and thinks that selling mountain products can support his siblings?"

So the brother and sister, who had just finished their busy schedule and were about to eat, welcomed the next peak period of delivering mountain products.
