Qin Xiaomin also nodded and said in a low voice, âYeah, if she can really get into a postgraduate degree, wonât our parents be overjoyed? Big Sister, youâre close to Miaomiao. Go and sound her out.â
Li Xu nodded, âAlright, you two go ahead. Iâll go up the mountain to take a look!â
As he spoke, Li Xu put the thought back on the brick bed.
Thinking that she still wanted to find Li Xu, Qin Xiaomin grabbed her armpit and carried her back, âYour Aunt is going out. Be good and wait for her to come back to buy you candy.â
Xiangxiang understood Qin Xiaominâs words, she stopped climbing and looked at Li Xu with anticipation, âEldest Aunt, candyâ¦â
As she spoke, she drooled. Qin Xiaomin took the handkerchief beside her and gently wiped the saliva off her chin.
âAlright, 1â11 buy you candy!â Li Xu agreed casually.
Li Yongâs bicycle was left at home. Li Xu rode the bicycle and brought the two children to the back of the mountain.
It had been more than a year, and the mountain was now well taken care of by the two brothers, Li Lei and Li Yong.
The rows of greenhouses lined the surroundings in a vast expanse of white. Red satin and lanterns hung in the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. Smoke was still coming out of the chimney above, making it particularly smoky.
There were chickens, ducks, and geese in the cages next to them. However, the cages were very clean and did not have any strange smells.
There were guests in the farmhouse today.
It was like a family gathering. There were more than ten people, men, and women, old and young. They had probably just arrived and were standing in front of the cage to pick.
â1â11 have that goose. 1â11 have a big goose stewed in an iron pot.â A man pointed at the goose in the cage and said.
Li Lei immediately opened the door of the cage and went in.
As soon as Li Lei entered, the poultry inside stood up and screamed in all directions.
The man revealed a satisfied expression, âTheyâre all quite energetic. There shouldnât be anything wrong with them. Theyâll definitely taste fresh.â
Li Lei quickly caught the goose and Li Miao handed over the knife.
Seeing that Li Lei was about to kill the goose, the man called out to the woman beside him, âItâs too bloody. Take the children to pick some vegetables. Donât just stand here and watch.â
The woman called out to the children, âCome, come, come with me. Letâs go pick some vegetables and fruits.â
Li Miao immediately went forward and was about to bring a few people to the greenhouse.
Suddenly, she saw Li Xu and the others standing not far away.
âSister, Second Brother is inside.â Li Miao pointed at the farmhouse.
Li Xu nodded, âOkay. You guys go ahead. Donât worry about me.â
She said as she walked in.
Ji Ziâang and Ji Yuanyuan followed behind her. The three of them entered the farmhouse, where Li Yong was cleaning.
Seeing Li Xu come over, he asked curiously, âSis, why are you here?â
âIâm looking for Miaomiao,â Li Xu said, âIs business good?â
Li Yong smiled, âItâs not bad. Thereâs business almost every day.â
âThatâs good.â Li Xu nodded.
After waiting for a long time, Li Lei came in with a big goose that had been killed, âThe guest wants to eat the iron pot stewed goose. You can make it first.â
Li Yong took the goose and went into the kitchen.
Li Lei stood in front of the sink and washed his hands carefully.
After a while, Li Miao also came back with her family.
Those people were carrying a lot of dishes in their hands. Li Miao took the menu and wrote down the dishes and various requests of the customers.
After settling down the guests, Li Miao finally had nothing to do.
âCome, come over here!â Li Xu waved at her.
When Li Miao saw Li Xu, her expression was a little surprised, âWhatâs wrong?â
âLetâs go out and talk,â Li Xu pulled her out.
The sisters walked out arm in arm, while Ji Ziâang and Ji Yuanyuan sat in the corner, feeling bored.
âI really want to go home.â Ji Ziâang said in boredom.
Ji Yuanyuan looked up at him, âYou want to go home and play games, right?â
âI just want to go home,â he sighed.
As they were talking, the customer in the shop suddenly raised his hand, âWaiter?â
Li Yong did hire a waitress, but she was not in the shop at the moment. He probably thought Li Miao was in the shop, so he went to the kitchen to help.
The customer called out twice, but she didnât hear any reply.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan quickly jumped off the stool and came to the female customer who was shouting, âHello, how can 1 help you?â
When the female customer saw Ji Yuanyuan, she could not help but laugh, âPlease help me change a pot of hot water.â
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and was about to leave.
The little boy beside the woman suddenly said, âEh? Weâve met before.â
This was directed at Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan turned her head and looked at the boy. For a moment, her brain was stuck and she did not have any impression of him.
âMom, do you remember?â the little boy said to the female guest, âLast year, on National Day, you brought me to the museum. We met a family.â
After saying that, the little boy looked at Ji Yuanyuan, âDonât you have two older brothers?â
When he said that, Ji Yuanyuan remembered.
During the last three days of the National Day holiday last year, their parents took the three of them to the city to play for a day.
On the first day, they went to the museum and saw a painting inside.
Then, he met a little boy who was one year younger than his second brother. He talked about the painting with confidence.
Ji Yuanyuan did not have much of an impression of that person, but that painting left a deep impression on her.
Scenes of the Hells by Wu Daozi! She would probably never forget it in this lifetime.
At this moment, the boy in front of her and the boy in her memory gradually overlapped.
Beside him, Ji Ziâang also remembered.
âSo itâs you?â Ji Ziâang felt angry when he thought of how he looked down on his brother back then.
However, his big brother was generous and even chatted with him all the way.
âWhereâs your Big Brother? Why isnât he here?â the boy asked in surprise.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and did not say much, âMy brother is at home!â
After all, they were strangers, so she didnât want to say anything.
âDoes your family own this?â the boy asked again.
âNo, itâs owned by my two uncles. Is there anything else you need help with? Iâll get someone for you.â Ji Yuanyuan changed the topic.
The previous female guest, the little boyâs mother, said gently, âPlease get us a pot of water. Nothing else.â
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and immediately ran to the kitchen to pass the message to them.
The waiter quickly came over and changed their water.
Ji Yuanyuan did not want to chat with someone she was not familiar with, so she simply hid outside.
Not far away, Li Xu and Li Miao stood side by side.
âItâs not like anyone can take the postgraduate entrance exam. Some of my classmates have been preparing since their sophomore year. 1 didnât prepare for it before. What if I donât sign the contract now and canât get in next year? Wouldnât that be a two-way street?â Li Miao lowered her head and held a feather that she had picked up from somewhere in her hand as she said in a low voice.
She looked a little impatient..
