Zhou Lianyi took the book boy back home, washed his face immediately, and asked the book boy to change into his neat clothes.

Shutong Youli said with a sad face: "The old lady said, tell me to watch you take a nap, and you are not allowed to run outside. After you took a nap, can't you go out when the sun is not so harsh?"

Zhou Lianyi can only stay at his natal family's house for two days, and he will go back the day after tomorrow. How could he be willing to waste his time on his afternoon nap.

"What do you know, hurry up and get the clothes I want."

After Zhou Lianyi changed his clothes, he asked the book boy to change into the clothes he had just changed, and directed him to lie down on the bed.

"Yes, that's it, with your back facing, you are not allowed to turn around, and you are not allowed to get up until I come back."

"Young master, if the old woman finds out, I must break my legs!"

"Don't worry, I will stop you, you can lie down."

After coaxing the book boy, Zhou Lianyi immediately sneaked out through the back door.

He knew that Zheng Zhinan would come out to herd the sheep at noon.

Usually he would put it on the hillside, but today he ran to the hillside and saw no one. He asked an old woman with a kerchief on her head and found out that Zheng Zhinan had gone to the back mountain.

When they got to the back mountain, they didn't see Zheng Zhinan either.

Not even a sheep was seen.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Lianyi held his hands in the shape of a trumpet and shouted towards the mountain: "Zhi Nan, Zhi Nan, are you there?" He shouted and turned around.

Then there was a rustling sound from the foot of the mountain, and Zhou Lianyi walked closer, only to see Zheng Zhinan standing at the foot of the mountain holding a sickle.

Zhou Lianyi said, "Why did you run to this mountain?"

Zheng Zhinan didn't hide it. After all, everything was roasted. If he didn't say anything now, he would follow up the mountain later, and he would also see roasted rabbits. He even caught a snake.

"It's cool here. I caught a rabbit and I'm roasting it. Do you want to eat it?"

Zhou Lianyi's eyes lit up, and he immediately ran to Zheng Zhinan.

Following Zheng Zhinan, they walked for about 5 minutes, and finally came to a mountain stream. Sure enough, in the open space beside the stream, there was a fire pile dug out with a isolation circle around it.

Before I walked in, I could smell the aroma of barbecue.

"Zhi Nan, when did you become so powerful?" In addition to the roasted rabbit, Zhou Lianyi also saw a skewered snake, stripped and washed, it was roasted and dripping with oil.

Zheng Zhinan said: "Someone taught me before, pinch the snake's head, hold down the mouth, and cut it with a sickle."

"It smells so good." Zhou Lianyi sat on a stone brought by Zheng Zhinan and helped put the firewood.

Looking around while waiting for the barbecue.

"This place is very nice, cool, quiet, and really comfortable."

"Don't you take a nap?" Zheng Zhinan saw that the meat was almost roasted, squeezed the juice from the washed fruit, tore off a piece of rabbit leg and handed it to Zhou Lianyi.

Zhou Lianyi said: "I've only been back for two days, and I'm leaving the day after tomorrow. Naturally, I want to play with you for a while, hiss—it's really hot." As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Zhinan handed Zhou Lianyi the leaves that had just wrapped the fruit.

"Use this to wrap the bottom, so it won't be hot."

Zhou Lianyi took the leaves and wrapped up the dry place, and looked at Zheng Zhinan while wrapping.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always feels that Zheng Zhinan is different from before.

I used to be a little shy when I saw him, and I basically didn't dare to look directly at him, like a cute little rabbit, I wanted someone to tease him, stay with him, and see how he blushed.

If it was said that he was like a delicate flower before, now Zheng Zhinan gave him a feeling like a green bamboo, neither humble nor overbearing, and dealt with it calmly.

Different styles, all equally attractive.

I still remember the first time I met Zheng Zhinan, they were probably less than ten years old, he was wandering around the village with a book boy, and when he was walking around, he saw a woman beating him at the door with a stick.

Each stick is so strong that it hurts to look at it.

Unlike my own mother, if I made a mistake, at most I would slap him on the palm to make him remember, how could I beat him to death like this.

After the man finished beating, Zheng Zhinan walked towards the hillside with a sickle on his back and a basket on his back.

He followed behind him, saw the bruises on his face, thought about his back, walked over and gave him the medicine that the book boy had brought with him.

He didn't dare to take it at first, but he insisted on it, and even took the initiative to rub the medicine on his face, so he accepted it.

From then on, every time he went back to Zhengjia Village, he would secretly hide under the big tree outside his granny's yard, wait for him to come out, and poke his head out from behind the tree to smile at him.

That smile is sweet.

In this way, every time he came back, he would meet each other, hide from that tigress and secretly go to pick lotus pods, climb trees to dig out bird eggs, and go down the river to fish. Of course, when doing these things, Zheng Zhinan always has work to do. Sometimes he would help him, but Zheng Zhinan didn't want him to help, saying that he was afraid that his clothes would be stained, and he was even more worried that his hands would be scratched.

He came back last summer, but he didn't come back during the Chinese New Year, and then this summer, they hadn't seen each other for a year.

He was thinner than before. Thinking of this, Zhou Lianyi opened the pastry wrapped in oil paper in his arms and handed it to Zheng Zhinan.

"This is a snack made by Yongfangzhai. It is very delicious. My grandparents ate half of it, and I gave the rest to me. I specially wrapped it up and brought it to you today."

There are four pieces of pastry, each of which is plum-shaped, with a little light pink, and some broken nuts can be seen.

Zheng Zhinan said: "You can eat, I will be full after eating these meats."

"Zhinan, what's wrong with you, didn't you promise me before that you would do whatever I asked you to do?"

Hearing this, Zheng Zhinan was silent, and then he took the barbecue with one hand and kneaded the pastry with the other. He picked up a piece and said, "Then let's eat together, you eat two pieces, and I eat two pieces."

Zhou Lianyi said: "I don't eat it. If I want to eat it, I can eat it later when I go to town. I specially reserved these for you."

Zheng Zhinan said, "Then I won't eat."

Seeing Zheng Zhinan's insistence, Zhou Lianyi had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay then, I'll eat with you."

After eating meat and cakes, the two ate all the wild fruits they had picked. Then they found a big tree and climbed to rest on it.

Zhou Lianyi said: "You have to go back soon."

Zheng Zhinan said: "When the sheep are full, I have to go back."

"Then I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain tomorrow."

"it is good."

After a short rest, Zheng Zhinan began to mow the grass, while Zhou Lianyi pulled the herbs under Zheng Zhinan's command.

Zhou Lianyi pulled it out and asked, "Zhinan, how do you know these things? Who taught you? Don't make mistakes, and don't eat them indiscriminately."

Zheng Zhinan said: "They are all common herbs, taught by the elders in the village, and they will not be eaten indiscriminately."

"That's good."

After finishing everything, Zheng Zhinan and Zhou Lianyi went down the mountain.

At the fork, Zhou Lianyi handed the sheep to Zheng Zhinan and said, "See you tomorrow."

"it is good."

After separating from Zhou Lianyi, Zheng Zhinan returned home in the sunset.

Just as Zheng Zhinan was chopping grass to prepare chicken food, Mrs. Zheng came in from outside carrying a sewing basket, followed by Zheng Yu who was eating dates.

Seeing Mrs. Zheng, Zheng Zhinan didn't say anything and continued to work with his head down.

Mrs. Zheng looked very kind this time, and when she passed by Zheng Zhinan, she said to him: "Zinan, I heard that the young master of the Zhou family is back, why haven't I seen him come to play at home?"

Zheng Zhinan said, "Maybe there is something else."

Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "What's the matter? Go back to his natal house, isn't it just to play, you have always played well, bring the young master over to play tomorrow, I specially asked your father to go to the jujube tonight, tomorrow please He came to have tea and dates."

"Tell him when you see it." Zheng Zhinan didn't refuse either.

Mrs. Zheng continued to say kindly: "See you, mother will allow you to take a lunch break tomorrow. After lunch break, go and invite Young Master Zhou to come and play."

"Okay." Zheng Zhinan knew that if he didn't agree at this time, he would only suffer, so he might as well agree first, and then use other excuses to prevaricate tomorrow.

Madam Zheng knew that Zheng Zhinan didn't dare to refuse, so she walked into the room with her chin raised.

Zheng Yu smashed the jujube stones he had eaten on Zheng Zhinan's body and head.

Mrs. Zheng didn't see it when she entered the room.

Zheng Zhinan ignored Zheng Yu and continued with his work.

Madam Zheng put down her things and came out, seeing Zheng Yu beating Zheng Zhinan with date stones, she immediately stopped her and said, "My dear, don't do this, brother will be cooking soon."

Zheng Yu couldn't understand why Mrs. Zheng was so nice to Zheng Zhinan suddenly, and immediately said: "I don't!" After eating another date, he smashed the date core on Zheng Zhinan's face again.

Mrs. Zheng said: "Mother said no, then she won't."

After Zheng Yu finished smashing Zheng Zhinan, he immediately stuffed another one into his mouth. Hearing that Mrs. Zheng still told him not to smash it, he could control it there. Looking at him, his eyes are cold, like snow is being quenched, which makes people feel chills.

For this brother, Zheng Yu has always been hitting or scolding, and often teasing him, where has he seen him like this.

Subconsciously took a step back and took a breath, this breath was terrible.

The jujube stone was stuck inside, and he covered his neck and widened his eyes in horror.

After Zheng Zhinan frightened Zheng Yu at that time, he continued to chop grass as if no one else was there, and with his back to Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Zheng didn't see Zheng Zhinan's movements at all, and only thought that Zheng Yu had accidentally stuck her throat.

Immediately ignoring him, he ran to his son's side and patted him on the back.

Zheng Zhinan stood up and said to Mrs. Zheng with a panicked expression, "Mother, I'm going to pour water for my brother!"

"Go!"

When Zheng Zhinan's water came out, Zheng Yu's face was already blushing, and his eyes began to roll.
