Chapter 3 Falling into the water

Falling into the water

Taohua turned her head and looked at the boy in front of her. It was Li Zheng’s grandson Su Jinchen.?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 �

"I heard from Jingsheng that you are sick, but now it seems that you are cured?" the boy approached and asked.

Taohua didn't know what was going on, but she felt a little panicked. She hurriedly got up from the stone bridge, pressed her hand to the ground, and her feet slid suddenly. Taohua widened her eyes and saw that she was very bloody and was pulled into her arms by the boy in front of her.

"Ah, Jin Taohua, what are you doing?!" A scream came from behind, piercing Peachhua's eardrums, and then I felt that the collar of the back was being grabbed hard. Things almost happened in an instant. Peachhua was pulled into the boy's arms while one foot was still outside the stone bridge, and when the collar of the back was grabbed, he knew it was bad. With a "thump", Peachhua ended her first experience of going out to this time and space in a more bloody way.

Taohua knew that the water in Qingshui River was not deep, but it was more than enough to flood the two underages, Su Jinchen.

"Brother, save me!" The river water in early autumn was very cold. Peach blossoms tried hard to paddle the water in the water to make their small body float. Brother and the others would definitely come over immediately after hearing it not far away. It's a pity that this little body was too young and lacked exercise. Peach blossoms felt breathless after just scratching twice, and then they realized that they actually didn't want to die.

Looking at Su Jinchen next to him, damn, could this kid be a landslide? Seeing Su Jinchen slowly sinking after slapping twice, Taohua quickly grabbed him, and as soon as he stretched his arm over, he was grabbed by him. "Don't pull me!" Taohua roared at the boy, feeling a little angry, but the boy's hand was still holding Taohua tightly.

"Hey, don't pull me, so we can't live." Taohua kicked her legs hard under the water, and with the other hand he broke his palm. As the peach blossoms choked a lot of water, and Su Jinchen kept pulling her down. Taohua gradually lost her strength. Will she be drowned? This is good, can she go back after waking up? In the end, Taohua simply stopped moving and let her body sink slowly. She felt the pain of her chest as if it was torn, and then she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, Taohua opened her eyes with a dry throat, looked at the roof, and then sighed. She had not returned to modern times when she was so close to death. It seems that God really wanted to live here by herself.

Both Zhang and Lihua were there in the room.

When Zhang saw his daughter awake, he asked, "You are awake, how about you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

My second sister Lihua was also standing in front of the bed and said happily, "Taohua, you finally woke up, my second sister poured you water."

"When is it?" Taohua asked, her voice hoarse, shocking herself.

"It's already the time for Shen." Lihua said while pouring water.

When is Shen Shi? Taohua didn't dare to ask again, but through the window, it should be four or five o'clock, but I didn't expect that I had been in a coma for most of the day.

"Look at you, I don't know how to rest when I recovered. Now I'm so happy, I've fallen into the river. I really don't know if the disease will be rooted." Zhang was a little worried.

"I didn't mean it. Who knew that Tang Feifei would pull me from behind?" Taohua muttered.

"Look at you, you're not convinced." Lihua came over, handed her water, and pointed her forehead again, and said, "If you don't join in the fun, how could she get caught by her? Didn't you hide far away when you saw her before? It's going to grow, but she's back, making my mother worry."

Although Lihua kept scolding her mouth, she felt distressed between the lines. Taohua could not help but feel warm in her heart when she heard it clearly, and she smiled naughtyly, "Oh, second sister, don't be angry, can't my sister apologize to you? Mom, don't worry, I will be careful in the future."

When Taohua heard what she said, both Lihua and Zhang were a little relieved, but when they thought that Taohua, who was usually silent, would even coax people, they were a little surprised and couldn't help but look at her carefully.

Taohua was shocked and accidentally exposed the stuff. She quickly took the tea bowl handed over by her second sister and started drinking it.

"Don't worry, be careful to choke." Zhang patted her lovingly, and the surprise in his heart also dissipated. No matter what, being lively is always a good thing. Perhaps this scare scared her daughter's timidity.

"By the way, where are the eldest brother and the fourth brother?" He put down the tea bowl and asked. The eldest brother couldn't guarantee it, but how could Yi Mingsheng not be able to guard himself?

"Your elder brother went to see Mr. Su. Your fourth brother was guarding you, but when he fell asleep, I took him back into the house." Zhang said, "What happened? Why did it fall into the river? Your elder brother didn't explain it clearly."

So Taohua told the matter as it was.

"Well, it's not your fault. It's just a girl from the Tang family. She is a girl who has learned calligraphy. How can she act so recklessly?" Zhang sighed.

"There is still why? It must be because Mr. Su saved our Taohuabei. She relied on being the niece of the village chief, and was full of hostility towards those close to Mr. Su. Humph, who doesn't know her little thoughts." Li Hua was full of disdain, and her fair cheeks were full of breath, which was very cute.

Taohua smiled with her lips pursed.

Zhang patted Lihua lightly and cursed, "The little girl is talking nonsense, isn't you afraid of others laughing at me."

"It was like that." Lihua said in a low voice with some dissatisfaction. Seeing Taohua smiled, she even made a face at her. Zhang looked at the two sisters helplessly.

After a while, Mingsheng woke up and came down from the bed and ran over. The mother and the others talked again. Looking at the sky, Zhang got up to cook dinner, and Lihua and Taohua also went to help, let Mingsheng play in the yard by himself.

The kitchen is not big or small, and it is clean. In fact, no matter where, Zhang is cleaned up very well.

Bales of firewood piled behind the stove.

The two stoves are right-angled. Near the wall is a large pot connected to a small pot. The large pot cooks rice and steamed buns. Water is placed in the small pot. When cooking the pot, put a little heat behind it. You can heat the heat in the small pot and wash your face and wash the pot. There is no need to reheat the water. It is very good.

Another stove is connected to a large pot for cooking. In this way, the rice is cooked and the dishes are ready, so there is no delay.

On one side, there are some worn clay pots and a few dustpans on it.

Under the cabinet is a wooden barrel containing rice and a small bag of noodles.

Several bamboo baskets piled in the corner.

There is also a basket with a few eggs in it, staying on the beam of the kitchen, which is to prevent animals like weasels from coming in and stealing food at night.

A large water tank is near the stove, and a large gourd is lying quietly in the water tank.

Zhang added water to the big pot, then grabbed a little corn from a worn rice jar and put it in, put it on a grate, and put it on two nests. The pear blossoms skillfully made fire. The pear blossoms also yelled to help, and all this made her feel familiar and friendly. Such a big pot is only available in her grandmother's house in my memory. She likes to eat rice made from such a pot, and it feels very sweet.

"You have been sick these two days, so it's better to take a good rest. Just your sister and I will do it." Zhang said, pouring some water into another pot, pinched a little salt from the salt pot and put it in, throwing the washed cabbage into it and cooking it.

As the evening approaches, Kim Dae-chung and Kyung come back together.

Seeing his father and elder brother come back, Mingsheng ran over cheerfully. Jin Dazhong picked up his younger son and turned around. Mingsheng laughed so much.

"Why are you back together?" Zhang saw the two of them entering the yard from the kitchen and asked.

"I came out of the village chief's house and just met my father and came back together." Jing Sheng said.

Lihua also walked out, holding a basin in her hand, and put it on the stone table in the yard, saying, "Dad, brother, come and wash your face, the meal is ready soon."

Taohua hurriedly brought the towel over.

Jin Dazhong put down Mingsheng, washed his face whirringly, then took a towel and wiped it. Jingsheng also came over to wash it. Seeing Taohua standing aside, he said, "Is it okay?"

"Ah?" Taohua seemed a little surprised, and then grinned, "It's okay."

"Well, rest at home these two days, don't go out and run around."

After washing his face, Jingsheng also entered the house with Jin Dazhong. Zhang was placing bowls and chopsticks. Lihua poured the water from the basin into the vegetable field, and then pulled Taohua into the house.

"His father, did Jing Sheng tell you?" Zhang asked at the dinner table.

"Well, I said it." Jin Dazhong said in a quiet voice, with no expression on his face, and he just buried his head in his meal.

Zhang was helpless and then asked, "Then Mr. Su is okay? What did the village chief say?"

Without waiting for Jin Dazhong to answer, Jingsheng said, "Young Master Su is fine, he woke up at noon, and the village chief didn't say anything. Mom, don't worry." As he said that, he looked at Taohua comfortably, as if he wanted her to rest assured.

"Then do I want to apologize to Mr. Su?" After all, it was because of my own, and it seemed that I should go and have a look.

"No need, buy some things tomorrow, just go with your elder brother. It's not appropriate to go to your girl's house." Jin Dazhong said.

Taohua nodded, "Yeah", and then picked up a chopstick dish for Jin Dazhong and Jingsheng, "Dad, brother, eat more."

"Sister I also eat more, you are the thinnest at home." Mingsheng said mischievously, and he really picked up the chopsticks to pick up Taohua. He pinched Taohua's face happily, "So good."

After dinner in the evening, the two sisters helped Zhang clean up the dishes.

It was getting late, and there was something in the room that couldn't see clearly, and the three of them smeared and brushed the dishes and chopsticks.

"When I have money in the future, I must buy a lot of candles to shine brightly in the house." Taohua said a little angry.

Most of the merchants here do not light the lamps, because they need money to buy oil lamps or candles. A pound of lamp oil costs ten cents, so you can buy half a pound of noodles. With the current financial resources of the Jin family, you can't afford it no matter what.

"Hey, I don't know when we will have the lamp." Lihua sighed.

Zhang finished washing his last bowl in the dark night, "Okay, girls, hurry back to the house to sleep."

When he returned to the room, Li Hua lay on the bed with some annoyance, "San Mei, did I say the wrong thing just now? Mom seems to be crying. Alas, it's all my fault."

Peach blossoms were next to Lihua, resting their heads on her shoulders, and whispered, "Everything will be fine, believe me."

Lihua sighed and said, "Go to sleep."
