The peasant boy of crossing

Wu Su found Li Xinyi under a willow tree beside the stream.

"You're here, sit down." Li Xinyi looked at Wu Su and patted the place around her.

Wu Su followed Li Xinyi's words and sat on the rock.

The leaves of the willow tree have long since fallen, leaving only bare branches hanging down.

Because it was near the stream, the wind was a bit strong, Wu Su looked at Li Xinyi's blushing face and said, "The wind is strong and the humidity is heavy, so go back earlier."

However, Li Xinyi felt that the wind was blowing comfortably, blowing away the fog in his mind, and said: "Just sit for a while, it's okay."

"Is what you just said true?" Li Xinyi asked, turning her face to the side and looking at Wu Su.

Wu Su looked at him and said, "When did I tell you a lie?"

Li Xinyi nodded and said: "I have to stay at home with my mother, so I can't go to Beijing with you."

Wu Su was silent for a long time, just looking at the rushing stream not far away.

Li Xinyi followed his gaze and felt that the surrounding scenery was rather bleak, so she also became sentimental.

"I will wait for you for another day. If you change your mind, come and find me. I will wait for you at home." After Wu Su finished speaking, he left without waiting for Li Xinyi to answer.

Li Xinyi looked at Wu Su's leaving figure, feeling indescribably confused.

But the figure turned back suddenly, Wu Suzhong came to Li Xinyi again, stretched out his right hand and said: "The water is very humid, go back with me."

Li Xinyi smiled, took Wu Su's right hand and asked him to pull him up, the two of them joined hands.

The rice in the late season has been harvested, and the winter wheat has just been sown. Only the scarecrows are standing faithfully in the field, and the farmers seem to be hiding at home.

Li Xinyi let Wu Su hold his hand, but didn't take it away.The touch of the skin on the palm of his hand made his body a little hot, and he broke out in sweat after a while.

"My hands are sweaty, just let go." Li Xinyi said.

Wu Su didn't let go of his hand, and said firmly, "You're nervous."

Li Xinyi stopped talking.

The two were walking on the field ridge at this time, surrounded by a large field of mulberry leaves, surrounded by densely packed branches of mulberry trees.

Li Xinyi was about to move forward, but Wu Su stopped moving, so Li Xinyi was pulled back.

"What's wrong?" Li Xinyi asked in surprise.

Wu Su looked straight into his eyes and asked, "Can I kiss you?"

Li Xinyi blushed instantly when she heard the words, he stammered, and replied subconsciously: "No, it's not possible."

Wu Su seemed a little disappointed, sighed, took Li Xinyi's hand again, and continued to walk forward.

Li Xinyi's heart was beating like a thunderous drum, looking at Wu Su's more handsome side face, she felt dizzy.

Then he seemed to be attracted, and when he came back to his senses, he had already pressed his lips to Wu Su's face.

Wu Su was stunned, Li Xinyi only felt that she was going to burn.

Li's mother saw that Li Xin Yitong's cheeks were flushed, and she seemed to be sweating, and said with concern: "It's getting cold, and you can't take off your clothes even if it's hot."

Li Xinyi replied: "I see, Aunt."

He closed the bedroom door, threw himself on the bed, pulled off the quilt and began to roll, rolling from the end of the bed to the head of the bed, and then from the end of the bed to the end of the bed.

It wasn't until she was mad that she took the comb, combed her messy hair neatly, and opened the bedroom door.

Li's mother was making chicken food. She chopped the uneaten vegetables and mixed them with rice bran. Seeing Li Xinyi's smiling face, she said, "What's the matter, so happy?"

Li Xinyi touched her cheek and said, "What are you doing, I'll help you."

Li's mother said: "It will be over soon, don't make trouble."

Li Xinyi dragged a low stool obediently, and sat on the side, watching Li's mother pour the chicken food into the pottery basin, and the reed chickens fluttered their wings and rushed over.

"After the chicken is finished eating, you bring in the clay pot and shovel the chicken feces away," Mother Li ordered.

Li Xinyi hurriedly nodded in response.

But as soon as the chicken was finished eating, Li's mother came back again, took the clay pot into the house by herself, and shoveled away the chicken excrement in two or three strokes.

Li Xinyi sat blankly, belatedly realizing that his mother didn't need him to do anything at all.

"Aniang, what are we going to do for dinner?" Li Xinyi asked.

Mother Li said: "The dough has already fermented. Tonight, Auntie will pull the noodles for you."

Li's mother moved quickly, kneading the dough into strips, cutting them into small pieces with a knife, and then pinching them left and right, the thin and continuous dough pieces can be put into the pot.

Li's mother said: "There is still some flour left, shall we eat wheat shrimp tomorrow?"

Li Xinyi stuffed firewood into the stove, nodded and said, "Okay."

"A Su said that he will leave in the future." Li Xinyi said.

Mother Li said: "So anxious?"

Li Xinyi said: "The spring test will be in February next year, it's not too early to start at this time."

After a while, Li Xinyi said: "A Su said he hoped I could go with him."

Mother Li asked, "Then are you going?"

Li Xinyi asked back: "Does Aunt want me to go?"

Mother Li said: "This is your business, you decide for yourself."

Li Xinyi said: "I don't know either."

There was a "gurgling" sound in the pot, and Li's mother said, "Go get the bowl."

Li Xinyi went to get the bowl, Li's mother said: "Go if you want to go, and refuse him if you don't want to go, what are you hesitating about?"

Li Xinyi said: "Aniang, you are from here, don't you want to tell me a few words?"

Li's mother said: "Your mother has been at home all her life, she has never been anywhere, she has no experience."

Li Xinyi said: "Where does Aunt want to go? I'll take you there."

Mother Li smiled and said, "I don't want to go anywhere. If you don't eat, the noodles will rise."

After dinner, Li Xinyi tortured Li's mother for a while, but Li's mother refused to let go, and finally said: "I want you to marry a wife, are you willing to marry?"

Li Xinyi said: "Ma'am, are your shoulders sore? I'll give you a massage." As she spoke, she wanted to help Mother Li's shoulders.

Mother Li brushed his hand away and said, "I'm going to wash the dishes, you can go outside to digest food by yourself."

Li Xinyi said: "I'll clean the dishes."

In the past two days, the number of people visiting Wu's house has never stopped, and they all came to see Wu Su.

After seeing a part of it, Wu Su soon became impatient and hid his laziness.

Because Wu Su hadn't reached the crown yet, these people were not annoyed, and went to find Wu's father with gifts.

But because everyone else was busy, Wu's mother was busy making Wu Su's winter clothes, Wu Sanshu was busy studying the jasmine fragrance Wu Su brought, and Wu's old lady was concentrating on Buddhist scriptures. not at home.

Wu Su felt that he couldn't really wait at home, so he came to Li Xinyi's house after thinking about it.

Li Xinyi wondered, "Why are you here?"

Wu Su said, "I'll come to see you."

Li Xinyi said: "What do you mean by looking at me?"

Wu Su said: "Look at your beauty."

Li Xinyi: "..."

After a while, Wu Su said: "Why don't you wear the jade hairpin I gave you?"

Li Xinyi said: "It's just me and my mother here, who should I show it to?"

Wu Su said: "Then you put it on now and show it to me."

Li Xinyi said: "Are you staying for lunch?"

Wu Su nodded and said, "Of course, I told my aunt the day before yesterday that I want to eat."

Li Xinyi said: "There is no fish or meat, only wheat shrimp."

Wu Su said: "The guest is up to the host."

But Li's mother learned that Wu Su was staying for lunch, so she ordered Li Xinyi to catch the chicken, and she wanted to kill the chicken.

Li's mother was already boiling water and sharpening the knife. Li Xinyi looked at the fluffy reed chicken, thinking that he just wanted to touch the chicken head yesterday, but was stopped by Li's mother.

Now Mother Li wants to kill chickens for Wu Su.

Li Xinyi looked at Wu Su and said, "You go chase the chicken for a while, and when it runs over, I'll catch the chicken wings."

Wu Su grew up so big, always well-dressed and well-behaved.But since Li Xinyi opened his mouth, he didn't want to disappoint him.

Li Xinyi pointed to a rooster with an exceptionally red comb and said, "That's the one, you kick it out."

Wu Su looked around, picked up a longer piece of firewood, and drove away the chicken with a red comb as he said.

But this chicken not only has a red comb, but its legs are also extremely flexible, and Li Xinyi can touch even a chicken feather.

So he shifted his gaze to a fat chicken that seemed to eat too much, and said to Wu Su: "Ah Su, that chicken looks stupid."

Wu Su aimed the firewood at the clumsy-looking chicken, and drove towards Li Xinyi.

But this chicken ran even faster than the one just now, proving with its strength that people can't be judged by appearances, and neither can chickens.

Li Xinyi returned without success again.

They had to catch it a few times, and once they managed to catch it, but the chicken legs slipped away from Li Xinyi's body.

Wu Su said: "This can't work, I'll catch the chicken, you drive it away."

This time they finally caught a chicken that looked too frightened.

Mother Li sharpened her knife and saw a lot of chicken feathers falling in the yard. After glaring at Li Xinyi, she took the chicken and left.

Li Xinyi smiled, picked up the chicken feathers on Wu Su's body, and said, "Fortunately, there was no chicken feces, I'll go boil the water."

When Li Xinyi came to the kitchen, Li's mother really reprimanded him: "There's no reason to let guests catch chickens, and it's no wonder people don't like you."

Li Xinyi also knew that what she did was wrong, so she obediently accepted Li's mother's reprimand.

After the water boiled, Li's mother went to the yard to pluck chicken feathers, and said to Li Xinyi: "Go and talk with others, you are not needed here."

After Li Xinyi stuffed enough firewood into the stove, when she went to the living room, Wu Su sat there, as if in a daze.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you get chicken feathers on you." Li Xinyi apologized, "Or Xiangpian tea?"

Wu Su said with a good-tempered smile: "What's the matter?"

Li Xinyi made tea for him and said, "It's because I have lost the rules."

Wu Su said seriously: "You don't need to apologize to me for such a trivial matter, and you never will."

Li Xinyi smiled and said: "My aunt can make this kind of fragrant tea. If you need it, you can ask her."

Wu Su said: "Then thank you in advance."

The air was filled with the fragrance of jasmine fragrance, Wu Su said: "Have you still not changed your mind?"

Li Xinyi said: "My mother said that she doesn't need me."

Wu Su looked at him suspiciously, and Li Xinyi said, "Come and pick me up at my house when you leave tomorrow."
