Good, this can't be eaten

Chapter 117

Lin Xia looked at the lump with complicated eyes, and finally said dryly: "It's... quite similar, you see, there are still two hands."

Xie Chi was filled with grief and indignation. She looked at it for a while, and began to feel that she was piled up like a pig. After staring at it angrily for a while, she stepped forward and overthrew it: "Do it all over again!"

She squatted in the snow and seriously made a second time. In fact, it is very simple to make a dumpling. You only need to make a round ball and then get out two arms.

Xie Chi carefully piled up the second one. I don’t know if it’s because Lin Xia has already prepared for it, so it looks like a dumpling. She nodded seriously: “Well, it’s very similar.”

Xie Chi didn't notice the difference between this one and the previous one no matter how he looked at it, he angrily pressed him to the ground and kissed him, and was worried about the cold during the kiss, so he put his hand under Lin Xia's head.

After taking two bites, he turned over, let Lin Xia be on top, and she was on the bottom. When the breeze blows, there will still be a shallow layer of floating snow, and there will be snowflakes falling on Xie Chi's long legs. On the eyelashes, the body temperature melted that bit of residual snow in an instant, turning into a round drop of water, which rolled down to the corner of Xie Chi's eyes and soaked it.

Lin Xia looked at Xie Chi, and Xie Chi stared at Lin Xia again. After a long time, Xie Chi jumped up from the ground like burning his butt, and ran into the house with his girlfriend in his arms: "It's too cold, it's too cold , let's go back to the house!"

As the year approached, festive red was hung everywhere, and the two of them were truly recognized by everyone, and they were able to be a little more casual on the mountain.

Xie Chi took his girlfriend and walked all over the mountain, and there were traces of her childhood in every place. Lin Xia liked this kind of activity very much, so she accompanied Xie Chi every day, listening to her little by little. Tell the story of your own childhood.

Although she was not able to participate in Xie Chi's past, but to savor it now and listen to the person's narration, it has a special flavor.

It's just that there is inevitably a little regret no matter what, Xie Chi met, and suddenly pulled a little ghost over: "Don't peek, I want you to help me."

"Chichi, why do you want me to help? As long as I don't sell my body, I can do anything else." The young male ghost patted his chest, as if it didn't matter if he sacrificed his life for Xie Chi at any time, and was ruthless by Xie Chi He beat his head hard, then whispered something in his ear.

The male ghost looked at Lin Xia and suddenly realized: "I understand, I understand, just leave it to me."

Lin Xia looked at Xie Chi for no reason, and Xie Chi refused to tell her, but at night, Xie Chi suddenly started to work, prepared a lot of things, and even lit a black incense stick. Watching Lin Xia climb onto the bed.

Lin Xia was even more at a loss: "What exactly are you going to do?"

"Go to sleep, go to sleep!" Xie Chi closed his mouth tightly, not revealing anything: "Anyway, it's not a bad thing."

Lin Xia fell asleep with doubts in her heart. When she fell asleep, she was obviously in a dream, but she seemed to hear someone talking to her, and a very soft voice asked her: "Are you ready? "

what to prepare?

She responded in a daze, and a light suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. Lin Xia walked along the light, and there was darkness around her, but there seemed to be a lamp in front of her, illuminating the square inch of her feet, allowing her to move toward the Going in one direction, passing safely and smoothly.

She didn't know how far she had gone, but the light in front of her eyes became brighter and brighter, she subconsciously protected her eyes, and when the light became weaker, Lin Xia put down her hands and found herself standing at the foot of a mountain.

She saw a very small girl, led by her mother, walking over step by step. After reaching the foot of the mountain, a tall and thin man appeared, with a kind smile on his face. .

The woman knelt down and kowtowed to the man, and then pulled the child in her hand: "Ah Chi, kowtow to the master!"

The child was ignorant, and kowtowed three times to the middle-aged man according to his mother's wishes, and the man hurriedly helped the woman up: "I accept this child, and I take her courtesy as a matter of course, but you don't have to." So, get up quickly."

With tears in her eyes, the woman pushed the girl: "Go, Chi, follow your master."

The girl was very young, with baby fat on her face, her eyes were big, but she had no expression. She looked at her mother with those big empty eyes, and after a while, she turned around slowly. .

One big and one small started to go up the mountain along the road. The woman stood at the foot of the mountain without moving, but her tears kept streaming down her face.

The little girl was holding a candied haws, walked, walked, walked, and was about to reach the top of the mountain. She seemed to realize something, and slowly turned her head to look at the foot of the mountain.

At that time, she could no longer see her mother's figure, and there was only an empty space left.

Lin Xia realized in an instant, this is Xie Chi, this is when Xie Chi was young, is this what she discussed with that ghost during the day?

Lin Xia followed behind little Xie Chi. Xie Chi was a small one but very obedient, and said little. She would just nod and shake her head when the master asked her, and then silently ate candied haws.

The master smiled, stretched out his hand to touch her head, and said softly, "You really resemble him, but it's not good to be too similar, you should be more lively."

As soon as the screen turned, Xiao Xiechi seemed to have been living on the mountain for a while. She was squatting under a big tree, holding an apple to observe the ants. She was still a 1 meter elder sister, and ran over humming, Holding a can of candied oranges in his hand, he stuffed them abruptly to Xiao Xiechi: "Here, here you go."

She said awkwardly: "I did dislike you a little bit before, but only a little bit, and now I don't dislike you any more. This is for you to eat, you can't be angry."

The little Xie Chi watched in a daze as the elder sister came and went like a gust of wind, holding the can of oranges in her arms, still a little at a loss.

She sat on the stone and did it for a long time. Finally, she slowly opened the jar and ate a piece. It was very sweet.

But she has no expression, is quiet, and looks like a doll.

After several days like this, the elder sister has been secretly observing Xiao Xiechi, and Xiao Xiechi doesn't seem to have changed at all until five days later, when he was eating at noon yesterday, Xiao Xiechi had eaten half of his meal , suddenly said: "Oranges are delicious."

Then she buried her head in her meal again, but the elder sister didn't react at all, she couldn't help showing a smile after a long time, and quickly pursed her lips, suppressing that smile back.

Lin Xia feels like an idiot, every moment she wants to touch Xiao Xiechi's face and kiss her hair, but this should be in a dream, she is just a bystander, besides watching Can't do it.

Fu Jiuyuan also appeared in the dream. At that time, Fu Jiuyuan was still a vigorous young man, and he would deliberately tease Xiao Xie to play late, just to make her face more expressive.

For example, a small straw-made frog tied with a rope, hides behind a tree and pulls and pulls, pretending to be alive, to attract Xiao Xiechi's attention.

Then he worked hard for a week, Xie Chi still looked at him with a blank expression, Fu Jiuyuan immediately became dejected, at this time the little Xie Chi suddenly tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Frog, cute."

Fu Jiuyuan: ...

Lin Xia also saw how Xie Chi was learning art. At first she just held a wooden sword and swung it around seriously. She had a serious expression, but it only made people feel cute. Later, she got older. , The wooden sword was replaced with a real sword, she drew some, and practiced sword skills under the tree, the fallen leaves were flying, and she was already a bit sassy.

Lin Xia sat on the rock opposite Xiao Xiechi, she felt that she would never get tired of seeing such a little Xiechi for the rest of her life.

Xiao Xiechi, who was over 10 years old, put away his sword, suddenly turned his head to look at her, and then slowly stretched out his hand. Lin Xia was stunned for a moment, and then stretched out his hand. They meet in the air, but no one can touch anyone.

But when Lin Xia saw Xie Chi smile, his brows and eyes were full of tenderness, which is the expression that Xie Chi only has now.

Lin Xia suddenly opened her eyes, the sun had already come in through the window, she turned her face to look at Xie Chi beside her, after a long time, she still couldn't hold back, reached out her hand to hug Xie Chi, and rubbed against him.

Xie Chi woke up slowly, her voice was still hoarse, she hugged Lin Xia back, and whispered: "Did you have a good dream?"

"How did you do it?" Lin Xia said contentedly, "It's so cute."

Xie Chi felt a little embarrassed instead: "I took my memory and weaved the dreamland, and my friend will guide you into it. His skills are not good, so it will look a bit messy..."

"So the last one is really you, right?"

"right……"

Lin Xia buried herself in Xie Chi's arms, and smiled softly: "Ah Chi, you were really cute at that time, but you are also very good now, because the current Xie Chi is the Xie Chi who really belongs to me .”

Xie Chi blushed, hugged Lin Xia's neck, and pressed his cheek against it. Lin Xia whispered, "Is this a New Year's gift? I like it very much."

"As long as you like it..." Xie Chi was originally embarrassed to let Lin Xia see her past, but after thinking about it, if it was her, she would be willing to see Lin Xia's past.

Because it was someone she liked, a time that she couldn't participate in, and it was good to witness it.

This is what happened last night.

The two hugged each other and lay quietly on the bed for a long time, until the sun rose higher and higher, and both of them were hungry, so they reluctantly got up from the bed.

As a result, the senior brothers looked at them with strange eyes. I don't know what they have made up in their minds. They always feel that they are not pure things.

After eating, Xie Chi dug out a jar of wine and took Lin Xia to the top of the mountain: "My master's memorial tablet is here. Everyone on the mountain will take turns to clean it and talk to master."

"My master is also a traitor in his bones, so you don't have to worry that he can't accept the two of us. If he can, he will give us a dream, and I will give you a dream so that you don't dislike me." Xie Chi thought My master smiled and rolled his eyes: "He is that kind of person. Although he is a bit ignorant, he has been worrying about this and that all his life. I always feel that he will not go to reincarnation. Maybe he is secretly rubbing somewhere." He looked at us with rubbish, and he was willing to leave this world when all of us got married and established businesses."

Lin Xia took the incense in her hand and lighted it for Xie Chi's master. The two of them knelt in front of the queue and kowtowed to the master. The front: "I have someone I like. I'll treat you to a glass of wedding wine in advance. How are you going to live down here? There are so many enemies, don't fight with them. If you can't fight, entrust me with a dream and I'll burn some for you." Thugs."

She was rambling, but her eyebrows and eyes were all gentle: "Did you see that? This is your apprentice's daughter-in-law, is she good-looking? There is still money, don't worry about me, I know that what you are most worried about is not Fu Jiuyuan, but Me, but I am living a good life now, much better than you imagined, you just play chess with old men of your own age below, and wait for reincarnation, don't worry so much."

"I will take good care of the brothers and the others for you, how can I let you suffer while alive, and you can't rest assured if you are gone."

Lin Xia also poured a glass of wine seriously, she didn't say a lot, but said: "I will take good care of Ah Chi, we will be together forever."

After offering incense and wine, the two left, holding hands and walking slowly outside. After a snowfall that day, the weather turned fine again, the snow on the ground melted, and the sun was even a little better.

Xie Chi told a few embarrassing things about the old man back then, and laughed while talking, and she held Lin Xia's hand tightly: "Go down the mountain to buy vegetables later?"

If they want to have a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, they must prepare food and drinks in advance. The market will be closed a few days before the New Year's Eve, and it will not reopen until the eighth day of the new year, so things must be bought in advance.

This matter was originally done by whoever was free. Since the two of them were free, I left the matter of grocery shopping to the two of them. The brothers who have been in various places for the past two days have come back one after another. up.

The nephew came back earlier, and he brought his girlfriend with him. They were embarrassed to ask Xie Chi a lot of things, so they caught the nephew and asked them enough. The nephew was so bald by the questions. Everything was revealed, and in just a few days, he began to lose his hair frequently. The main thing is that he obviously brought his girlfriend back, but in the end, he was not cared about at all!

Xie Chi and Lin Xia said they were going to the market to buy vegetables. In fact, it was no different from a date. They strolled back and forth leisurely. In addition to shopping for vegetables, they also bought some new bowls. Every New Year, we need to buy new bowls and chopsticks. Of course, Spring Festival couplets are also indispensable.

Everyone who sees Xie Chi will say hello, especially those who have benefited from Huaishan, they are even more enthusiastic. Xie Chi and Lin Xia squatted down to pick two tomatoes. Before they started picking, the peddler had already opened his pocket , took out the freshest ones and put them in a plastic bag: "Are these enough?"

"It's much, much more."

"Take any more and mix them with tomatoes! But the tomatoes grown this winter have low sweetness and sourness, so remember to add more sugar." The peddler babbled and refused to take money.

Xie Chi insisted on paying, but he insisted that two yuan would be enough, and this kind of fresh vegetables could never be bought for two yuan in winter.

Lin Xia has seen with her own eyes how popular Huaishan is in the local area.

The reason for this is, of course, that the elders and folks living near Huaishan come to ask for help if they have any problems. Huaishan never collects money, and they will give them some safety talismans and other things during the holidays.

Some people have a bit of a headache, and they don't even need to go to the doctor, because Ji Xiangsi's medical skills are very good. Whenever the season changes, or if there is a flu, he will prepare some medicines to prevent colds and give them to everyone for free.

Everyone has benefited, and naturally they will also want to repay Huaishan. This back and forth is human favor.

Xie Chi is also Huaishan's junior junior sister. In the past, whenever there was a market, she would go down the mountain to buy things. Everyone grew up watching her, so naturally they all liked her.

Even when Xie Chi was shopping, an old man kept waving: "Little Chi, you came back to the mountain? Come here, haven't you bought couplets yet? Master wrote it himself! Take it!"

Afterwards, Lin Xia found out that the old man was still a university professor. He had retired for several years. At the beginning, he didn't believe in those gods and ghosts. It was Xie Chi who noticed something was wrong and dragged his master over to show him.

At first, the old man thought they were liars, but after the matter was resolved, he felt even more embarrassed when he remembered his original attitude.

In addition, Xie Chi is about the same age as his granddaughter. Every time the old man sees Xie Chi, he wants to give something. Sometimes it is vegetables or fruits grown at home, and sometimes it is written by himself. I heard that he Or some kind of calligraphy association.

I guess there is nothing to do during the Spring Festival, so I wrote couplets and sold them to nearby residents. Although it won't cost much, it's a good way to pass the time.

So the two went down the mountain empty-handed, and finally went up the mountain with a large bag of things.

Among them are particularly fragile bowls and cups. Fortunately, when I went up the mountain, I opened them and checked that they were not broken.

Lin Xiaoxiao was the last one to come back. After all, she was married and the family was very busy, but she would still come back to the mountain during the holidays.

When she was growing up, Lin Xiaoxiao and Ji Xiangsi were the main force, Ah Qiao thanked Chi Lin Xia and Sun Yue for help, and made a lot of dumplings.

Lu Jingxing and Yun Xu were busy in the kitchen, and Yuan Dongling squatted at the door picking vegetables.

Dou Qi... was fighting with the senior sister there, but it wasn't a real fight. Who made Dou Qi feel guilty, squatting there and talking, saying that another year has passed, and the senior sister is still not as high as the stove.

Of course, this is an exaggeration, so he was beaten all over his head.

Lin Xia likes this kind of atmosphere very much, and sometimes she can't help but think, if it wasn't for coming to Huaishan and being surrounded by such a group of people, Xie Chi would definitely not be what he is now.

She is like a young seedling, which received the most protection and love at the most suitable time, and finally grew into what it is today.

Lin Xia would think of yesterday, on New Year's Eve, everyone had to get up early in the morning to put up couplets, but when she got up, the couplets had already been pasted up, and the mountain was covered in red.

You can also see the kid who is not strong enough to stay in the sun for too long, holding an umbrella in one hand and the word "Fu" in the other, wandering around to see where there is nothing posted.

Huaishan, this is the real place where humans and ghosts can coexist harmoniously. Everything you see is warm, so this warm soil has become the best breeding ground.

She has to thank Master for accepting Xie Chi into Huaishan, and Xie Chi has a group of real relatives.

They have the habit of watching the New Year's Eve at night. Few of them slept. They sat in the living room, surrounded by a TV, bored. After all, the current Spring Festival Gala is really meaningless, and a group of people don't want to sleep. Finally, they discussed, Got to play cards.

In the end, two tables were forced together, those who liked to play mahjong played mahjong, and those who didn't know how to play mahjong played against landlords. Ah Qiao was like a sparrow, and she could hear her shouting all night: "I'm stupid again! "

So before 12 o'clock, a group of people booed Yunxu: "Take your wife away, or we won't be able to fight anymore!"

Xie Chi is not very good at playing mahjong, and he is not very proficient in fighting landlords. She and Lin Xia just watched around with a fruit plate and were responsible for pointing out Jiangshan.

Xie Chi: "I think you should publish this one!"

Lin Xia, whose card skills are also very average: "I think this should be played."

In the end, the player who was playing cards jumped up, Yuan Dongling: "Can you two chickens stop talking about each other? What are half-baked chickens pecking at each other? Listen to you, I can lose tonight as a pair of pants! Please!" You two hurry up to love each other, hurry up and go away?"

The two of them ran out of the door in desperation. The night at the top of the mountain was completely different. There were fireworks everywhere, as if they were exploding above their heads, and the sound of firecrackers was endless.

"I took you home the first year we were together, will auntie be angry?" Xie Chi took Lin Xia's hand and asked in a low voice.

Lin Xia thought about it, her mother was still busy during the Chinese New Year, how could she be angry when she was busy, she would probably be angry at her for leaving all her work behind and ran away with Xie Chi.

She sincerely apologized to her mother in her heart, and then said, "I'm sending my mother a New Year's greeting, so I shouldn't be angry, right?"

The two quickly took out their mobile phones and began to edit the New Year's greetings. They didn't know what Lin's mother felt when she received it.

Anyway, the two of them are very happy at this moment.

The two sat on the big rock not far from the door, and the fireworks exploded one after another above their heads. In the end, they didn't know who made the move first, and who leaned over first.

They kissed, under the sky full of fireworks.

"When I go to your house next year, my aunt should not be angry. We will spend every New Year's Eve together in the future."
