The daily garden of rebirth

After lunch, the three of them went to the grocery store again. Zhang Er bought some seeds. Tang Qianhe saw them and bought some, just in time for planting.

After leaving the grocery store, Zhang Er went to a small stall again, carefully selected for a long time, and then bought a hairpin and a red bracelet. After paying the money, he carefully put it in his arms, his face The smile on the face reveals happiness.

Tang Qianhe stood aside and watched, a little envious in his heart - his parents had never loved each other so much.

Zhang Er put away his things, turned around and saw Gu Zhaoyang and Tang Qianhe, raised his hand and touched his head, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "I kept you waiting for a long time."

After thinking about it, he explained: "Big Zhuang, I've wanted hairpins for a long time."

"I haven't waited long." Listening to Zhang Er's words, Gu Zhaoyang remembered the past, so he lowered his head and said to himself: "My father would bring my mother back with a hairpin in the past."

Walking out of the memories, Gu Zhaoyang asked, "Uncle Zhang, are we going back?"

Zhang Er looked at the sky, then nodded, and said, "It's time to go back to the village, so that we can get home before sunset, by the way, is there anything else you haven't bought?"

Tang Qianhe remembered what he promised Gu Zhili before going out, and saw a peddler standing not far away holding a string of gourds and selling candied haws, so he said to Zhang Er and Gu Zhaoyang, "Wait for me."

As he spoke, he trotted towards the man, and after a while, when he came back, he held four bunches of candied haws in his hand.

Handing one of the strings to the child in front of him, Tang Qianhe met Gu Zhaoyang's surprised eyes, raised his hand and touched his head with a smile, and when he saw the other party frowning, he closed his hands and said with a smile: "I I know, I know, don’t mold your head, right. Now, here’s this skewer for you, I think, you should also like to eat it, right?”

Originally Gu Zhaoyang wanted to say that I didn't like it, but seeing Tang Qianhe's smiling brows and gentle eyes, he pursed his lips and finally admitted it.

Putting the candied haws in his hand into his mouth, the sweet and sour taste filled his mouth. Gu Zhaoyang narrowed his eyes, turned his head to look at Tang Qianhe who was talking to Zhang Er happily, his expression was a little dazed, but more Yes, it is firm.

——He wanted to keep Tang Qianhe forever.

********

The three of them returned to the village, just before the sun set on the mountain, and the sky was still bright. It was close to You hour, and on the road, villagers in twos and threes came back together with hoes on their shoulders——

It's time to go home and eat.

When they returned to Zhang Er's house, Zhang Mei had already started washing rice for cooking, while Gu Zhili and Xiao Hua were standing under the tree, looking up at Da Zhuang who was digging out bird's nests on the tree.

Seeing Gu Zhaoyang and Tang Qianhe come back, Gu Zhili's eyes lit up, and then he threw himself into Tang Qianhe's arms like a small cannonball, raised his face, and smiled brightly: "Big brother, you are back."

Gu Zhaoyang saw that his younger brother did not rush at himself but at Tang Qianhe, feeling a little depressed, but when he looked at Tang Qianhe's gentle eyes when he looked down at his younger brother, another feeling rose in his heart——

Tang Qianhe didn't know about Gu Zhaoyang's tangled thoughts. He lowered his head and rubbed the head of the child in his arms: "Well, did Xiao Li behave well today?"

"Yes, I'm very obedient." Gu Zhili's eyes widened, then he turned around and waved to Xiao Hua who was hiding behind Da Zhuang who had come down from the tree: "Xiao Hua, come and testify for me, I am very good today .”

Xiao Hua is Da Zhuang's younger sister, she is only six years old this year, and she is a shy little girl.

At this time, she was standing behind her brother, holding his brother's clothes tightly, and when she heard Gu Zhili calling her, she poked her head out cautiously, looking at Tang Qianhe with a flushed face, with doubts in her eyes.

She doesn't know this person, but he looks really good-looking.

When Tang Qianhe saw the little girl, he smiled softly at her, then gently pushed Gu Zhili away, and then took out three bunches of well-wrapped candied haws from his arms. them.

When Gu Zhili got the candied haws, he immediately danced, his smiling eyes narrowed into crescent shapes: "Thank you, big brother."

Da Zhuang didn't expect to have it himself, and it was given to him by the good-looking person in front of him, so his dark face blushed, he took it with some embarrassment, and said shyly, "Thank you."

There were two blushes on Hei Hei's face, it was really funny, Tang Qianhe couldn't help laughing, he smiled, and then handed the remaining bunch of candied haws in his hand to the side, blinking, looking engrossed little flower.

"Xiaohua, this string is for you." Tang Qianhe bent down, his eyes were level with the little girl, his voice was gentle, and his face was full of smiles.

Xiaohua, who was originally hiding behind her brother and was afraid of strangers, looked at the candied haws in front of her. It was covered with a layer of sweet and greasy sugar, and inside were red hawthorn seeds. She swallowed, raised her head, and asked Tang Qianhe in a low voice. : "Is this really for me?"

Tang Qian nodded gently: "Well, it's for you."

After staring at Tang Qianhe for a while, Xiaohua carefully stretched out her hand, took the candied haws, put it in her mouth and licked it, it was so sweet.

The sweet smell made Xiaohua a little more courageous. She laughed, stretched out her hand, touched Tang Qianhe's face, and said, "Thank you, big brother."

Gu Zhaoyang stood aside, taking this admiration into his eyes, feeling extremely surprised, he knew that Xiaohua was a shy child, he didn't expect Tang Qianhe to be liked by her just like that, but after thinking about it, this person is not And soon Xiao Li fell in love with him?

Moreover, I also...

Thinking of this, Gu Zhaoyang put away the surprise in his eyes.

Zhang Mei, who heard the voice coming out of the kitchen, saw that the three children were happily eating a candied haws in each hand, so she smiled. She wiped the water stains on her hands, walked to Zhang Er, and saw that the bullock cart was full of After looking through all kinds of goods, I was a little surprised, raised my head, and asked Zhang Er: "Why did you buy so many things and came back? Hey, you also bought beef?"

Zhang Er shook his head and said, "Most of them belong to Xiaoyang and the others, and the beef also belongs to Xiaoyang and the others." When he was about to leave the city, Tang Qianhe saw a vendor selling beef next to him, so he bought some back.

In ancient times, cattle could not be slaughtered arbitrarily, but they just happened to meet that the cattle of that family had died of old age, so they could buy beef.

Hearing what Zhang Er said, Zhang Mei turned to look at Gu Zhaoyang again, and asked, "Xiaoyang, did you buy these?"

Gu Zhaoyang shook his head, but nodded again: "These were bought by Tang Qianhe. He paid for the money, but he bought them for us."

Zhang Mei understood, but she was also curious about where Tang Qianhe's money came from. Although she was curious, she didn't ask aloud. In her opinion, as long as the money came cleanly, and it wasn't stolen or robbed, then it would be easy. It's nothing, and she also believed that if the money came from an improper source, Gu Zhaoyang would not agree to Tang Qian's use of it.

After unloading all the items from the bullock cart, Zhang Mei looked at Gu Zhaoyang and said, "Xiaoyang, Lele is still sleeping, why don't you stay for dinner. Auntie's house doesn't have any good things, but Tim A few pairs of chopsticks are fine."

Thinking that there is still beef that needs to be processed, otherwise the taste will change after a long time, so Gu Zhaoyang rejected Zhang Mei's invitation.

"No, Auntie, let's go back early while it's still early, and Lele should wake up, or she won't sleep at night."

Hearing this, Zhang Mei didn't force her, nodded her head, and said, "Okay, be careful on the road. I'll lend you the ox cart first, and I'll let Da Zhuang's father take it back tomorrow, so you don't have too many things. It's not good." take."

After listening to what Gu Zhaoyang said, he smiled at Zhang Mei: "Thank you, aunt." Even if Zhang Mei didn't mention it, he would ask her to borrow it. After all, they bought too many things and they couldn't take them.

—

Back home, Gu Zhili had finished eating the candied haws. At this moment, he was watching Gu Zhaoyang and Tang Qianhe with surprise on their faces as they took the things off the ox cart one by one, with very cute expressions on their faces.

Holding the younger brother in his arms tightly, Gu Zhili trotted to the front of the bullock cart and raised his head: "Brother, how do we have the money to buy these?" He remembered that their family had no money.

Hearing this, Gu Zhaoyang smiled at his younger brother, pointed to the person standing beside him, and said, "Tang Qianhe bought these, and he pawned the jade pendant in exchange for silver."

"Become a jade pendant?" Gu Zhili seemed to understand, and turned to look at Tang Qianhe who was standing aside: "Big brother, does the jade pendant cost a lot of money?"

"Yes." It should be, whether it is ancient or modern, jade is a valuable thing.

"That should be very important to big brother, otherwise why would you spend so much money on jade pendant, so big brother, can you really be a jade pendant?"

Facing the clean eyes of the child in front of him, Tang Qianhe was stunned for a while before he figured out the meaning, and suddenly felt that his heart was warm as if soaked in hot spring water.

——Will you be unhappy when such a valuable thing is pawned?

Tang Qian smiled gently, and he shook his head: "It's not that important, because big brother doesn't remember, and now you are more important to big brother."

"Well, big brother is also very important." Gu Zhili said loudly, then turned his head and blinked at Gu Zhaoyang: "Brother, I'm right."

Gu Zhaoyang was stunned suddenly by his younger brother's question. He blinked and looked at the smiling Tang Qianhe. After a while, he turned cold and nodded slowly.

Then he replied in an extremely awkward way: "Yeah."
