Chapter 4: 4

Liu Zhimo turned his head and took a deep look at Li Qingling. He keenly felt that she had changed. Her previous temperament was dull and taciturn, and even if she was scolded, she would suffer and would not retort.

Not only did she retort just now, but she also caused Liu Shi indignation without leaving a trace. The villagers may not have noticed this, but he, a bystander, saw it clearly.

Also, every time she met him, she blushed and didn't dare to look up at him, only dared to call Big Brother Mo in a low voice and run away quickly.

And now, not only did she not blush, but she dared to speak to him loudly.

With these diametrically opposed temperaments, which one is the real her?

He became interested in her.

"Big Brother Zhimo?" Li Qingfeng called out when he saw that Liu Zhimo didn't answer him.

Liu Zhimo returned to his senses, retracted his gaze, and nodded, "Yes, but the water is too cold now, so you've to wait until summer."

"Okay, thank you Big Brother Mo." Li Qingfeng nodded happily, as long as he can learn to swim, anytime will do.

Seeing Li Qingfeng so happy, Li Qingling raised the corners of her mouth, children should be more lively, he was too dull before.

When she turned her eyes away, she glanced at Liu Zhimo without a trace. The way he looked at her just now made her heart lift, for fear that he would detect something.

She really felt that he was much more shrewd than Zhao Shi, and it was very difficult to fool him. She has to remembered to be more cautious in front of him in the future, and to not expose her character too much at once, but gradually, so to not attract attention.

As soon as they got home, Liu Zhimo put Li Qingfeng down, and after talking to Zhao Shi, he was ready to go home.

But Zhao Shi stopped him and divided him half of the Hairy Nests that Li Qingling picked today, telling him that they've eaten this kind of Hairy Nest and it won't kill people, so he could eat it with confidence.

Liu Zhimo looked down at the half basket of mushrooms, and then glanced at Li Qingling who was on fire agian. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Auntie, did Younger Sister Qingling pick up this hairy nest from the mountain?"

"Yes, she picked it up. She also had luck yesterday. She met an old man on the mountain and kindly told her that this hairy nest was edible, so she picked it up."

Zhao Shi continued with a smile. She didn't tell Liu Zhimo that she ate this kind of hairy nest pot yesterday because she had the idea of ​​dying with her daughter and son.

When she woke up this morning, all three of her family were fine. She was happy and at the same time reassured. With this kind of edible hairy nest, her family should be able to survive until the autumn harvest.

"That's really a good luck." Liu Zhimo looked at Li Qingling, who was busy making hot water, and hesitated before asking, "Younger Sister Qingling, can you call me next time you go up the mountain to pick up hair nests?"

His family didn't have much to eat anymore. If there were Hair Nests, he and Zhiyan would have enough food, and the money from copying books could be saved to buy polished rice for his sister to eat.

Li Qingling was trying the water temperature and felt it was a little hot, so she added a spoonful of cold water. When she heard Liu Zhimo's question, she hummed without looking back, and reached out to test the water temperature again. She turn around and called Li Qingfeng, "Xiaofeng, hurry up don't linger, or the water would get cold."

Li Qingfeng dragged his wet clothes and moved his feet over there little by little, and said with a blushing face, "Big Sister, I have grown up and can wash myself." He is so old, and he will be embarrassed to ask his sister to help him take a bath.

"What big, your hair didn't even grow." Li Qingling didn't give him a chance to resist at all. She strode over and stripped him off cleanly with three and two move. Li Qingfeng covered his little private place, his face was so dry that he was about to cry.

This time, Li Qingling didn't need to call, he quickly ran into the bathtub, sat down, and quietly covered his little private place with a cloth towel.

Li Qingling turned around and put away Li Qingfeng's wet clothes. Seeing that Liu Zhimo was still there, she raised her eyebrows, "Aren't you cold? Hurry back and take a bath! I'll call you up tomorrow morning when going up the mountain."

Liu Zhimo smiled at her and said thank you, even Li Qingling, who had seen all kinds of beautiful men in modern times, was stunned by this smile.

Zhimo is good-looking, but her daughter can't stare at others like this!

Zhao Shi shook her head helplessly and coughed twice. Li Qingling didn't hear it. She had no choice but to reach out and pull her, "Xiao Ling, hurry up and help Xiaofeng take a bath, the water will be cold."

When she regained her senses, Li Qingling blushed a little, saying you're welcome, and turned around to help Li Qingfeng take a bath.

A smile flashed in Liu Zhimo's eyes, and he bent down and picked up the half basket of mushrooms, "Auntie, then I'll go home first."

"Okay, remember to take a hot bath and drink a bowl of ginger tea when you go back."

"Okay..." Liu Zhimo walked out of the kitchen, took a few steps, and looked back at Li Qingling, who was training Li Qingfeng, thinking of what she said just now, 'What big, your hair didn't even grow.', he couldn't help laughing again.

She's only ten years old, it's really funny to say something so mature.

In fact, Li Qingling really treated Li Qingfeng with an adult mentality, completely forgetting her age at this time.

As soon as Liu Zhimo left, Zhao Shi frowned slightly and looked at Li Qingling, sighed and said, "Xiao Ling, you shouldn't talk back to your grandmother today, it's not good for your reputation."

Li Qingling knew that Zhao Shi was accustomed to being submissive in front of Liu Shi. Before the family split, her family would always cook more and eat less. Compared to the bright red faces of the people from the first branch, the few of her family are pale and skinny. It's just that her parents don't think so.

She couldn't control it before, but now she must reverse Zhao Shi bun character.

"Can fame be eaten?" Li Qingling said lightly, she touched the clearly visible bones of Li Qingfeng's body, and her voice was even lower, "Mother, we used to have a good reputation, but what kind of life did we live? Don't you know that in your heart? How did we get separated in the end, do you remember?"

Glancing at the pale Zhao Shi, she gritted her teeth and continued to say, "Mother, father is gone, you are the only adult in the family, and you still can't stand up, what should I do with Xiao Feng?"

Zhao Shi saw the bruise on Li Qingling's forehead, which was resulted from kowtowed to her mother-in-law. In an instant, her eyes turned red. It was because she, her mother was not competent enough. Not only did she fail to protect her daughter and son, but now at this moment, for that reputation, she also blame her daughter.

She lowered her head, tears dripping down, "It's mother who is not good enough, I'm sorry for you."

Li Qingling frowned and helped Li Qingfeng get dressed before moving to Zhao Shi side and said helplessly, "Mother, don't cry, I don't mean to blame you!"

She just wanted her to see the situation of her own family clearly and let her know that if she didn't become tough, she would continue to be bullied constantly.

Furthermore, in the future, her family's conditions will improve, and if Zhao Shi is still such a bun, no matter how much they has, It will be taken away by Liu Shi.

Afraid that her daughter would think too much, Zhao Shi wiped away the tears on his face indiscriminately. She raised her head and smiled at Li Qingling.

"Mother is happy, my daughter has grown up and can protect her mother and brother." She reached out and touched Li Qingling's forehead, and asked with distress, "Does it hurt?"

Li Qingling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the Zhao family was no longer crying, "It doesn't hurt! It will be fine in two days."

The pain was numb, and she didn't feel the pain anymore. She didn't dare to say these words, otherwise, Zhao Shi tears will be provoked again.

How could it not hurt? At that time, the knock was so heavy that she could hear the banging sound, but seeing her daughter's resolute little face, Zhao Shi pursed her lips and said nothing.

She just made up her mind secretly, she must stand up, and she can no longer let her daughter protect her in front of her.

The next day, Li Qingling went to find Liu Zhimo with a backpack on her back. When she entered his house, she saw Liu Zhiyan was studying. She walked over and took a look, and found that most of the traditional characters on it were familiar to her.

"Are you literate?" Liu Zhimo asked her in surprise when he saw that she was fascinated.

Li Qingling looked up at him and shook his head, "When you teach Zhiyan to study, can Xiaofeng and I come over to study together?" In this way, it makes sense that she can read and write, and she can teach her younger brother in the future.

She didn't want Li Qingfeng to be blind, even if he didn't have much prospects in the future, at least he should know how to count and not be deceived.

Liu Zhimo simply nodded his head. Rushing one sheep or several sheeps, it's the same. It didn't make much difference to him.

Thinking of being able to read books openly in the future, Li Qingling grinned. Liu Zhimo saw how silly she was smiling, and couldn't help reaching out and patted her head.

"Let's go! Don't you want to go up the mountain?" He was holding a larger backpack than the one Li Qingling was carrying, and before leaving, he instructed Liu Zhiyan that before he came back, he must learn all the big characters he just taught him, and that he'll check after coming back.

Liu Zhiyan gave him a sad look and nodded.

"Would you like to take a break?" Li Qingling stopped and looked back at Liu Zhimo, who was a long way behind her. When he reach her, she asked him.

Liu Zhimo looked at Li Qingling, whose face was not blushing or panting, and was deeply jealous. Don't look at how thin this little girl is, she walks very fast.

He held on to the tree trunk and exhaled loudly before saying no, he could still walk.

"I'm tired, let's take a rest!" Li Qingling sat directly on the ground, and comforted his injured heart by the way, "You're not as sturdy as me, and it's pretty good that you can walk so far."

After walking with her for an hour and a half without saying a word, she admired his perseverance.

This time, Liu Zhimo was not stubborn anymore. Like Li Qingling, he sat on the ground and rest, looking down at the ground in a daze. Before his parents passed away, his life was pretty good. Although he also do some housework, but he dosen't have to go up and down the hills to work like the children in the village.

But after his father and mother passed away, he had to carry the burden of the family. He learned to cook, learn to do farm work, and also went to the periphery of the mountain to pick up firewood.

From the beginning of the bumps and bangs, to gradually become proficient, only he knows the hardships involved.

"Okay, let's go!" Li Qingling stood up and patted the dust on her buttocks, then took the lead to go to the deep forest. Liu Zhimo returned to his senses, got up and followed. After walking for another half an hour, the two reached the deep forest with many mushrooms.
