Little Farm Among the Clouds

Lu Ming let go of the food box in Yangyang's hand.

Ye Chi's eyes lit up, and he asked knowingly, "What is this?"

Lu Mingfang replied: "Sweet and sour pork ribs and pig's trotters."

"Give me and grandpa something to eat?"

"Ah."

"Wow! My grandpa and I like to eat sweet and sour pork ribs and pig's trotters the most. Brother Fang, you are so kind, thank you." Ye Chi looked happy before eating food.

Lu Mingfang pursed his lips, knowing that Ye Chi liked it, so he offered to give it to Ye Chi with his grandfather, and his grandfather readily agreed. He followed Ye Chi into the yard with the food box, and Ye Guosheng thanked him repeatedly.

Ye Chi has already taken the food box.

Ye Guosheng asked: "Ye Chi, do you want to eat now?"

Ye Chi nodded.

"Would this be enough to eat?"

"No." Ye Chi replied honestly.

"...Then grandpa cook some vegetable and egg noodles, okay?"

"Okay, I'll help grandpa light the fire."

"Don't you want to eat pig's feet?"

"I help grandpa cook the noodles before lighting the fire."

"Okay." Ye Guosheng looked at Lu Mingfang and said, "Mingfang, why don't you eat at Grandpa's place at night, the egg noodles cooked by Grandpa are very delicious."

"Yes." Ye Chi took the conversation and said, "Grandpa's noodles are hand-rolled noodles, bought at Uncle Xiao's house in the market, and they are very delicious. Brother Fang, you can eat with us, okay?"

Lu Mingfang nodded.

Ye Chi was overjoyed. He sat in front of the stove and started to light the fire. After a while, the fragrant vegetables and egg noodles were cooked. Ye Guosheng filled three bowls and brought them to the small dining table in the courtyard. Fresh and natural vegetables, white and white The round poached eggs and handmade noodles, under the illumination of the headlights in the courtyard, present a more attractive color.

"It's time to eat!" Ye Chi took three pairs of chopsticks and a bottle of vinegar, quickly ran to the small dining table and sat down, gave each of Grandpa and Brother Fang a pair of chopsticks and said, "Let's eat together."

"Mingfang, eat." Ye Guosheng greeted Lu Mingfang.

Lu Mingfang nodded, took the chopsticks, and looked at Ye Chi. Ye Chi was holding the chopsticks in one hand and the pig's feet in the other. He gnawed the ribs in a gentle manner, glanced at Ye Chi from time to time, and smiled with his lips pursed.

Just after dinner, old man Lu came to pick up Lu Mingfang, Ye Chi enthusiastically stepped forward and said, "Grandpa Lu, thank you for the pork ribs and pig's trotters, they are delicious."

Ye Chi gave Mr. Lu a thumbs up.

Grandpa Lu laughed and said, "Xiaoyechi likes to eat, Grandpa Lu will make it for you next time, okay?"

"Okay." Ye Chi smiled happily, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Grandpa Lu, do you like watermelon?"

"Like it."

"The watermelon that my grandfather and I planted is ripe, I will give it to you tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Reciprocity is good.Yechi was also happy. The next morning, Yeguosheng Yechi sold out his vegetables and came to Jingshan Mountain again. At a glance, he saw plump watermelons hidden under the green seedlings.

Ye Chi immediately ran up and patted the melon with his small hands, making a thumping sound, and the melon shook his hands a little, he immediately turned his head: "Grandpa, this watermelon is ripe."

"how do you know?"

"Because I am Master Shanjing! The watermelon told me that it is ripe!" Ye Chi said again with emotion: "The watermelon said 'Master Shanjing, the little one is ripe, come and eat me', so I I know."

I really love acting!Ye Guosheng smiled helplessly, followed Ye Chi's lead, and said, "Then I want to see if you, a mountain spirit, have enough mana?"

"Ah."

Ye Guosheng went up, tapped the melon with his finger knuckles, got an echo, drew a mark on the melon with his nails, chopped it with his bare hands, and with a crisp sound, the watermelon cracked along the finger mark, revealing the red watermelon flesh .

"Wow!" Ye Chi exclaimed: "Grandpa's iron sand palm is so powerful!"

"Yes, grandpa knows iron sand palm!" Ye Guosheng grabbed the watermelon and broke it hard, splitting the watermelon into two, and asked, "Grandpa, what kind of skill is this?"

"Nine Yin White Bone Claws!!" Ye Chi replied without hesitation.

"..." Come on, Ye Guosheng has no doubt that Ye Chi can come up with a series of "Harry Potter", "Journey to the West", "Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" and children's stories. Ye Chi is so smart, but he can remember everything he hears and see, and he can draw inferences from one instance, which often makes him overwhelmed. Not only does he not feel ashamed, but he is very happy.

As he gets older, he loves to be lively. Ye Chi can sing a play by himself. Ye Guosheng heard that the older the child is, he doesn’t like to talk so much. He cherishes Ye Chi, who loves to talk now, and broke the watermelon for a few more times. Petal, the petal with the most flesh, handed it to Ye Chi: "Taste it."

Ye Chi took it and took a bite, the sweet taste filled his mouth and spilled onto his red lips, he quickly took a sip and said, "It's so sweet!"

Ye Guosheng also took a bite: "Well, it's really sweet."

"Delicious."

Ye Guosheng laughed.

The grandpa and grandson sat in the watermelon field, head to head, and ate most of a watermelon, while Dahei stood beside Yechi and gnawed on the watermelon rind.

Ye Chi threw another watermelon rind to Dahei, continued to take a piece of watermelon, buried his whole face in the melon rind, and gnawed on the flesh. When he lifted his small face, there were several watermelon seeds on his cheeks. , Stretch out your hand and pinch it off and say: "Don't worry, eat slowly, this watermelon is small, let's finish it."

"it is good."

After a while, the grandpa and grandson ate up a small watermelon, sat on the rock, enjoying the cool breeze in early summer, listening to the chirping of various birds in the mountains, and looking at the blue sky and white clouds, everything was so pleasant.

Ye Guosheng was relaxed, Ye Chi felt that everything was fine, but he couldn't stay idle, he got up after a while, let Ye Guosheng rest, he went to pick watermelons, picked one after another, sweating profusely, turned his head and Ye Guosheng said, "Grandpa, watermelons are so hard to pick."

"It's exhausting."

"Well, I can't move, grandpa, and you can't. What should I do? This is too tiring. By the way, grandpa, aren't there scissors on the tricycle? We use scissors to cut, use scissors to cut Just save your energy, oh, I'm so smart, Grandpa, I'll go get the scissors!"

Without Ye Guosheng's words, Ye Chi performed the whole story by himself. He brought the scissors to Ye Guosheng. Ye Guosheng took the scissors to selectively cut the watermelon vines, and Ye Chi hugged the tricycle one by one.

Twenty or ten minutes later, the tricycle at the foot of the mountain was almost full, and Ye Chi said, "Grandpa, the truck is almost full."

"Okay, then I won't pick it up."

Ye Guosheng hugged two watermelons, took Ye Chi down the mountain, put the last two watermelons into the car bucket, looked up and saw Ye Chi had already got on the tricycle, and said: "Grandpa, you are walking behind, I will come Riding a tricycle."

"Can you ride?"

"You can ride it." Not long after buying the tricycle, Ye Chi learned to ride a tricycle with the help of Lu Mingfang and Xiao Haozi, and he was able to carry Lu Mingfang and Xiao Haozi around the town.

"Okay then, you ride slowly."

"Ok, I know."

Ye Chi held the handlebars with both hands, stood on the stirrups with both feet, tilted his body, concentrated all the strength on his right foot, and transmitted it to the stirrups on the right, the right stirrups drove the chains, and the chains pulled to The rear wheels of the three wheels roll, and then the tricycle moves forward slowly.

With Ye Chi's feet stepping alternately, the three wheels started to drive from slow to fast, and then drove to a constant speed, driving from Jingshan to the main road of the town.

Ye Guosheng took care of him from behind: "Ye Chi, slow down and turn the corner."

"Well, I see. Grandpa, please slow down and watch the road."

"understood."

One of the grandpa and grandson was riding a tricycle in front, and the other was holding the tricycle behind. The tricycle was full of watermelons, which attracted the attention of the neighbors. They greeted Ye Guosheng one after another, and marveled that Ye Guosheng actually planted leaves in the pond. out of the watermelon.

Many of them used to manage Jingshan, but they didn't find it so easy to grow vegetables. After thinking about it, Ye Chi and Ye Guosheng must have worked hard in private. Working hard, I couldn't help admiring Ye Chi and Ye Guosheng.

Especially for Ye Chi, it has not been a day or two since Ye Chi came to Jingshan Town, at first they were quite critical of Ye Chi because of Ye Hongtao's matter, some even deliberately confessed to their children and kept less contact with Ye Chi.

It has been a long time to see people's hearts. In the past few days, Ye Chi not only did not cause trouble, but also did not complain. He followed Ye Guosheng to grow vegetables, pick vegetables and sell vegetables without complaint. He never complained or tired. Lu Mingfang, the eldest grandson of the old lady's family, has been taken care of. How rare is this child!

Unknowingly, these people had a love for Ye Chi, and there was no malice or disgust in their eyes when looking at Ye Chi, but gentleness and appreciation.However, Ye Chi never cared about these things. He rode a tricycle into the yard with a blushing face.

Ye Guosheng supported the tricycle and said, "Come down and wash your face."

After Ye Chi came down to wash his face, he asked, "Grandpa, shall we sell watermelons now?"

"No, let's sell it tomorrow. I'll call your third grandpa and ask him to ride their tricycle when he and Xiao Haozi come over tomorrow. In this way, tomorrow morning, we'll pull watermelons in three rounds, one round at a time. Take a tricycle to pull vegetables and sell them together."

"Then we can sell for double the money?" Ye Chi is very good at grasping key points.

Ye Guosheng smiled and said, "That's right."

"Great, we'll save the money if we sell it!"

"Okay." Ye Chi looked at the watermelon in the tricycle and said, "Grandpa, can you give Brother Fang a watermelon?"

"Okay."

Ye Chi immediately hugged one happily and said, "I'll send it to him."

Ye Guosheng nodded.

Ye Chi stepped up and walked towards the courtyard gate. When he looked up and saw six or seven neighbors pouring in from the courtyard gate, he froze, and then asked: "Uncles, what are you doing here?"

"Come to buy watermelon." Several people said together.

"Buy watermelons?" Ye Chi turned around and shouted without doubt, "Grandpa, uncles and uncles want to buy our watermelons."

Ye Guosheng walked over, saw old acquaintances, and hurriedly greeted them, thinking they were joking, but he didn't expect that they really came to buy watermelons. Ye Guosheng went to the market every day to sell vegetables, and he was no longer the shy old man he used to be. If you want to buy watermelon, then sell it.

In order to reassure the neighbors about the quality of the watermelon, Ye Guosheng cut a watermelon at random, with thin skin and red flesh, and let everyone taste it one by one. A neighbor who came was staring at the watermelon in Ye Chi's arms.

Ye Chi hugged him tightly and said, "This is for Brother Fang."

Ye Guosheng said: "In the afternoon, take your Brother Fang up the mountain to pick and eat, and sell this to Uncle."

Ye Chi thought for a while, this watermelon was for sale, so he gave the watermelon in his arms to his uncle, and everyone carried the watermelon and left, so all the watermelons in the tricycle bucket were sold out, Ye Guosheng raised Ye Chi's hand money.

Ye Chi smiled and said, "Grandpa, let's go, let's go to the National Bank to save money."

"Okay, let's go to the National Bank to deposit money!"

"Go." Ye Chi said neatly.

Just leave, the grandpa and grandson took the passbook, and went to the bank in the town to deposit the money. Ye Guosheng was wearing sunglasses and laughed at the numbers on the passbook. Ye Chi pulled Ye Guosheng's hand Hand, whispered: "Grandpa, show me, show me how much money we have."

Ye Chi knew early on that when it comes to money, you can't talk nonsense or loudly. If bad people hear it, you will be robbed. Whether it's movements or voices, he is very careful in his actions.

Ye Guosheng was amused by Ye Chi, now he is not in the bank or outside, but at home, Ye Chi looks so cute, he smiled and handed the passbook to Ye Chi, Ye Chi looked at the balance very skillfully At the bottom, seeing a string of numbers, his little hand pointed at the zero before the decimal point on the passbook: "One zero, two zeros, three zeros, four zeros, grandpa, there are four zeros!"

Ye Guosheng nodded.

Ye Chi broke his little finger again and said, "One, ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand! Grandpa, we have 1 yuan!"

Ye Guosheng pointed to the number in front of zero: "Is this one?"

"No." Ye Chi said with a smile.

Ye Guosheng smiled and said, "So it's not ten thousand. There's another 2000 yuan that your uncle paid back."

"Wow!" Ye Chi opened his mouth wide in surprise, covered his mouth with his small hands, and then said: "Grandpa, we are so rich! We are so rich! We are so happy."

Seeing Ye Chi's cute appearance, Ye Guosheng burst out laughing.

Ye Chi was going to circle around happily.

Ye Guosheng stroked Ye Chi's small head and said, "Now that you have paid for your middle school tuition, grandpa will be much happier."

"Grandpa doesn't need to prepare it." Ye Chi said again: "My mother will give it to me."

"Mom's is mother's, and grandpa's is grandpa's."

"Well, I also have a lot of money in my own piggy. When my mother comes over, I will buy a gift for my mother."

"Row."

Ye Chi looked at the pink piggy bank, and suddenly thought of Lu Mingfang, and hurriedly said, "Grandpa, I ate watermelon, but I haven't told Brother Fang yet. I'm going to take Brother Fang up the mountain to eat watermelon this afternoon."

"Go."

Ye Chi didn't move.

Ye Guosheng asked, "Why don't you go?"

Ye Chi picked his little finger, and said shyly: "Then if Brother Fang and Grandma Lu let me eat at their house, I will eat at their house."

"Do you want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs?"

Ye Chi replied embarrassedly: "Yes."

"It's not good to eat other people's food. Grandpa will make it for you when you come back, okay?"

"Okay!" Ye Chi immediately agreed happily, and then ran away.

When I ran to Mrs. Lu's house and talked about watermelons with Lu Mingfang, in the afternoon, I pulled Lu Mingfang and walked towards Jingshan Mountain. When I reached the foot of the mountain, Xiao Haozi ran over, and Ye Chi repeated it to Xiao Haozi. About their own watermelons, the three children walked up the mountain with Dahei while talking.

After arriving on the mountain, Ye Chi chose a watermelon, followed Ye Guosheng's example, clenching his fists, and beat the watermelon, but the watermelon didn't break, but his hand hurt.

Lu Mingfang also tried twice, but the watermelon didn't move at all.

Xiao Haozi also said helplessly: "You don't have a knife, how can you eat watermelon?"

"I have a solution!" Ye Chi picked up the watermelon, threw it on the stone, and with a thud, a watermelon broke into several pieces. Ye Chi said happily: "Okay, you can eat it."

Xiao Haozi: "..."

Lu Mingfang: "..."

One minute later, Xiao Haozi kept gnawing on the watermelon petals, and Ye Chi held a petal to Lu Mingfang and said, "Brother Fang, eat it, this one is not dirty, look, the skin of this melon is clean, Brother Fang, eat, eat."

Lu Mingfang resisted at first, but Ye Chi was too enthusiastic, and he didn't have the habit of rejecting Ye Chi, so he ate it after taking it. Just one bite, he was conquered by the sweetness of watermelon, surrounded by Ye Chi Xiaohaozi Together, watching Ye Chi and Xiao Haozi pick up watermelons to eat, of course he doesn't bother to pick up watermelons on the ground, he always eats the watermelons that Ye Chi picks up from the ground.

"Brother Fang, here, this one is clean." Ye Chi wiped off the watermelon skin with his hands, and gave it to Lu Mingfang very enthusiastically.

"En." Lu Mingfang responded, reaching out to take it.

"Brother Fang, you can eat this too."

"Ah."

"Brother Fang, you can eat again, it's so sweet."

"Ah."

Xiao Haozi at the side said unconvinced: "Yechi, why do you always feed Ming Fang and not me."

Ye Chi said: "You can pick it up yourself."

"Ming Fang will also pick it up."

"But you eat so fast, if Brother Fang picks it up, he won't be able to pick it up from you."

"..." Xiao Haozi was speechless.

Yechi divided the last few pieces into three parts, one for each person. After eating them all, the three of them played on the mountain for a while. After getting tired, they lay down on the big rock next to them and watched the blue sky and white Clouds in the sky, talking about some endless topics, listening to the children playing at the bottom of the mountain.

Ye Chi asked: "It's so lively."

Xiao Haozi said, "Because it's summer vacation."

"How long is the summer vacation?"

"What a day."

"Xiao Haozi, do you know how many days the summer vacation is?"

"One hundred days!"

"You're so stupid!" Ye Chi glanced at Xiao Haozi with disgust.

Xiao Haozi asked puzzledly: "How many days is that?"

"Sixty days!"

"How did you know?"

"I'm smart!"

"fart."

"No fart, I'm smart. If you don't believe me, ask me Brother Fang, Brother Fang, am I smart?"

"En." Lu Mingfang replied.

Ye Chi wanted to get the truth and said, "Did you hear that? Brother Fang said I'm smart."

Xiao Haozi said: "When you go to school, you will know whether you are smart or not. The knowledge of the first grade is very difficult!"

"It's not difficult. I like going to school. My grandpa and mother have saved my tuition fees. On September [-]st, I will go to school." Ye Chi is full of expectations for going to school.

"I'm going to school too."

"We go to school together."

"Ah."

"At that time, my mother will be back, and in more than a month, my mother will be back." Ye Chi looked through the gaps in the leaves, saw a blue sky and white clouds, and said, "I miss my mother, Xiao Haozi , do you miss your mother?"

Xiao Haozi said: "I don't want to, my mother will come back every week, and every time she will babble and beat me, she will come back tomorrow."

Ye Chi stopped talking to Xiao Haozi, lay on the rock, turned to look at Lu Mingfang beside him, and asked, "Brother Fang, do you miss your mother?"

Lu Mingfang used to have a mental illness, and when he couldn't control himself, he resisted his parents. Now that he has recovered from his illness, he is willing to answer his mother's phone calls. I don't know if it's the mother-child instinct or what. He feels at ease when he hears his mother's voice. He hasn't seen his mother for a long time.

After a long time, he said, "Yes."

Ye Chi followed up and said, "I miss my mother too."

Lu Mingfang followed up and said, "Well, I miss my mother very much."

As soon as the two children finished speaking, a woman's voice suddenly came from the foot of the mountain: "Ming Fang! Ming Fang!"

Yechi Xiaohaozi didn't recognize who it was.

Lu Mingfang sat up suddenly.
