Chapter 659: Chicken Soup for the Soul

Listening to Xiaosi's pretentious recitation, Xie Yu was stunned for a moment, and then curled up the corners of his mouth, "Fourth brother said it well, but why does it sound like Aunt Bai's tone?"

"Hehe... Brother Xie heard it? It's what my mother said, I remember it.

Next to him, Yifeng looked at the sky speechlessly, and he said that this boy couldn't say such awe-inspiring words. If she was the eldest lady of the Bai family, she would be credible.

Xiao Si scratched his head and nodded with a slightly red face.

"My mother said that when we were growing up, we should be fed some chicken soup at the right time to encourage us."

"What can drinking chicken soup inspire?" Xie Yu's eyes flashed and she looked at him curiously.

"This chicken soup is not that chicken soup."

Xiao Si cleared his throat and glanced proudly at Yifeng next to him.

"I'm talking about chicken soup for the soul. My mother said that proper chicken soup can regulate emotions and increase self-confidence. It can also relieve anxiety and stress and improve the ability to resist attacks. If you can find confidence in adversity and face difficulties, you can probably overcome them. success."

Xie Yu: "..."

so smart?

"Brother Xie, don't you believe it?"

After Xiaosi finished speaking impassionedly, he looked at Xie Yu staring at him in a daze and touched his nose in a daze.

"Believe it or not, it's just a little unexpected. I'll go find Aunt Bai later and ask her to give me some chicken soup too."

Xie Yu looked at Xiao Si, reached out and patted his shoulder, and walked forward.

"That's no problem. My mother knows a lot about chicken soup. I'll give you a few more tubes later to make sure it works."

Xiao Si patted his chest and spoke emphatically to promise.

When we were chatting, he was curious and asked his mother why she could always talk so much truth. As a result, my mother gave him a mysterious smile and said it was all chicken soup for the soul, and she had a lot of it in her stomach.

You can tell him the story all day and all night without repeating it.

A group of people walked toward the fields on the west slope in a mighty manner. The breeze picked up and the hem of their clothes fluttered gently.

Xie Yu held the fan and turned to look at Xiaosi's innocent smile.

"Aunt Bai is as knowledgeable as any man. My fourth brother is really lucky to have such a loving mother."

Listening to Xie Yu praising his mother, Xiao Si subconsciously puffed up his chest.

"Brother Xie is right. My mother knows a lot. She usually likes to read miscellaneous notes, which contain customs from all over the world and some strange people and strangers. My mother said that reading thousands of books means traveling thousands of miles."

"If Aunt Bai were a man, she might really be able to come back with a top score." Xie Yu chuckled and praised in agreement.

"That's not necessarily the case. My mother fell asleep when she read those serious scientific examination books. But when she read those casual books, she became more and more energetic."

Xiao Sihun waved his hand carelessly and replied smoothly. Xie Yu was stunned when he heard this, but he couldn't control it and started laughing.

Perhaps the laughter was so loud that others couldn't help but look back.

It wasn't until the group of them had gone far away that someone appeared from behind the elm tree beside the path.

Xing'er was holding the bamboo basket, listening to their unbridled laughter, her eyes were dull.

The two girls just now didn't look like country girls at first glance, just look at what they were wearing. And the confident and hearty laughter between her brows made her feel unspeakably sad and bitter.

Originally, she was angry with her mother and ran back to her grandmother's house, but when she thought that today was the day when brother Xiaowu was hosting a banquet, she couldn't hold it back and came back anyway.

After lingering at the door for a while, I saw them going out together.

She knew that brother Xiaowu was right in front of her, but she just couldn't take a step forward and didn't dare to get close.

Compared with the two brightly dressed girls, look at herself. Although this pink cotton dress is also newly made, compared with other people's smooth and slippery clothes, she can't wear it.

Holding on to her clothes, tears flowed out unsatisfactorily. Listening to their laughter and laughter as they walked forward, she followed behind them by mistake, only hoping that Brother Xiao Wu would turn around and look at her.

Xie Yu waved her fan and walked while admiring the scenery on both sides. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a sneaky figure behind her.

Is anyone following them?

Inadvertently, he looked back and was stunned. The person following them turned out to be a little girl.

"Master, she is a little girl."

Yifeng approached his master and spoke in a low voice.

"It looks like she's a little girl from the village, so don't pay any attention to her."

Yifeng looked back at her with disdain in his eyes. A country girl dared to miss her husband and had such delusional thoughts.

While joking, a few people arrived at the foot of the hillside.

Listening to the sound of gurgling water, I walked up the field ridge, until I stood on the hillside and looked down, with surprises in my eyes.

Scattered villages, vibrant crops, and green rice seedlings growing up to the calf are in front of you.

In particular, the mountain spring water drawn from the mountains slowly flows into the reservoir along the bamboo pipes, and then flows through the reservoir into the ditch and meanders away.

"Yaya said, Aunt Bai came up with this method of collecting mountain spring water?"

Zhang Yishan looked at Xiao Wu, staring at him curiously.

Before Xiao Wu could speak, Xiao Si held his head high and spoke.

"Yes, this method was indeed thought up by my mother. It took our family more than a month to complete it, but it was very troublesome. Although it is simple, the problem of water storage in this sloping land has finally been solved."

"awesome."

Zhang Yishan looked at the spring in the distance,

"Do you often go into the mountains? Are there any wild animals in the mountains? Will they come down to eat people when they are hungry?"

Listening to her innocent tone, Xiao Wu couldn't help but tremble, "Then have you heard about the rumors of wild beasts attacking the village in the nearby mountains and forests?"

Zhang Yishan was stunned and shook her head subconsciously.

"Never heard of it."

"Then it's over. There are usually no wild beasts in the nearby mountains and forests. If it's a deep mountain forest, it's hard to say. Besides, both wild beasts and people have their own circles and don't invade each other. This is the law of nature."

"Are there no exceptions?" Zhang Yishan understood this for the first time, like a curious baby.

"Unless someone breaks the rules, it's hard to say. But I've never seen that since I was a kid." Xiao Wu glanced at her and answered truthfully.

"Oh I got it."

Zhang Yishan nodded and then carefully observed the surrounding scenery. Standing high and seeing far, the field of view was indeed different from that below.

"This is my first time climbing so high. Standing here and looking at the scenery is really different."

Zhang Yishan looked around with bright eyes and paced excitedly.

"Junior brother, is this all your family's land?"

"Well, the rice fields in front of me belong to my family. They were developed a few years ago."

"Wow, no wonder Yaya said this place is beautiful. It's absolutely true."

After Zhang Yishan was surprised, she couldn't help but be curious.

“How much rice can be harvested from such a large piece of land?”

Listening to Zhang Yishan's inquiry, Xiao Wu glanced at her,

"You don't understand even if I talk about the harvest."
