Liu Xiaoyu was the same age as Xu Yunfei, but she was two months older than Xu Yunfei.
Behind her house was Xu Yunfei's house. They lived in the front and back courtyard. It could be said that they grew up together.
The two families had a good relationship. At that time, Liu Xiaoyu's parents often joked with Xu Yunfei's parents, saying,""In the future, it's most cost-effective for our two families to be in-laws. As long as the back wall is torn down, we'll immediately become a family.”
The two of them gradually grew up and gradually understood some things.
Xu Yunfei was a strong-willed and taciturn person since he was young. Whenever he heard his elders say this, he felt embarrassed and even began to deliberately alienate Liu Xiaoyu.
Liu Xiaoyu was obviously more mature than Xu Yunfei, so she was more open-minded. Sometimes, she even deliberately got close to Xu Yunfei, thinking that Xu Yunfei's blushing face was very cute.
After the incident at Xu Yunfei's family, especially in the first half of the year when Xu Yunfei's mother was not heard from, Liu Xiaoyu clearly felt that Xu Yunfei's personality had changed a lot. He became more silent, and his heart seemed to be filled with countless worries.
Seven or eight years old was the age to be entangled in the arms of his parents.
Xu Yunfei, on the other hand, had to go to school every day and work for three meals a day.
The burden of life suddenly pressed on such tender shoulders. How many tiring days and lonely nights would it take to become strong?
How many times must the blisters on his hands be broken to prevent his younger sister from starving and freezing?
He had never shed a single tear because of this.
Liu Xiaoyu saw Xu Yunfei's determination, and her budding girlish feelings were unconsciously tied to this stubborn youth.
At this time, the raindrops fell more and more happily. Xu Yunfei ran all the way to the top of the slope and saw Liu Xiaoyu carrying a basket to the edge of the wheat field at the bottom of the slope.
At this moment, a hailstone the size of an apricot seed smashed into the stone beside Xu Yunfei, sending ice shards flying everywhere.
Xu Yunfei was shocked. He knew that this was just the prelude. The hail could fall at any time. He hurriedly took a deep breath and ran along the hillside path as if his feet were not touching the ground. Liu Xiaoyu was shocked.
"What are you doing? Running so fast? You scared me to death?" Liu Xiaoyu said coquettishly.
Xu Yunfei snatched the basket from Liu Xiaoyu's hand and threw it aside. He grabbed her arm and ran towards the village while saying,""There's hail. Run home quickly!"
With two loud explosions, two more hailstones shattered beside them, scaring Liu Xiaoyu out of her wits. Only then did she realize the seriousness of the situation. She looked around and suddenly had an idea. She pointed to the west and said,"It's too late. Let's go to the wheat field!”
Xu Yunfei's heart was pounding. They were still a long way from the village. It was extremely dangerous to run home at this time. It was very likely that they would be injured by the hail before they even entered the village. Moreover, there were fields everywhere, and there were no houses to shelter them.
After Liu Xiaoyu's reminder, Xu Yunfei immediately realized that there were many piles of wheat straws on the wheat field. It was the only place nearby to avoid the hail.
Dark clouds gathered in all directions, and the wind surged.
Xu Yunfei pulled Liu Xiaoyu and ran to the wheat field.
Soon, they ran to the nearest pile of wheat straws. They didn't have time to catch their breath and quickly dug a hole in the pile of wheat straws. Xu Yunfei asked Liu Xiaoyu to quickly get in, but Liu Xiaoyu grinned and said,"What about my hair?"
Xu Yunfei took off his white coat and wrapped it around Liu Xiaoyu's head as he said,""What time is it?”
He casually pushed her into the straw hole and entered it himself.
There was a loud crash of hailstones outside, and the rain began to pour. The wind blew the straw they had dragged out to the top of the slope and disappeared in an instant.
Although the straw cave was far less comfortable than home, compared to being hit by hail, this straw cave was simply heaven.
Liu Xiaoyu panted slightly. The nervousness and busyness just now had not completely calmed her down. She stared at the back of Xu Yunfei's head and said,""Fortunately, you came to pick me up. Otherwise, I would have been smashed by now. I might even have lost my life!”
Xu Yunfei sat facing the outside and said nothing. The two of them were squeezed in such a narrow straw hole, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. He subconsciously moved his body out.
Liu Xiaoyu noticed Xu Yunfei's small movements and smiled.""Did you guys find any voles?"
"I found it!" Xu Yunfei answered.
"Did you dig up a lot of food?"
"It's alright. There's half a bag of corn.”
Liu Xiaoyu grabbed a straw and chewed on it. She stared at the back of Xu Yunfei's head and asked,""Xiao Ji and the others probably didn't catch the hail, right?”
"Yes, the place where the voles were dug up is at the edge of the village. They should have entered the village long ago!”Xu Yunfei answered.
Liu Xiaoyu's eyes sparkled in the darkness. After a moment of silence, she removed the straw from her mouth and said softly,"Turn around and sit down. It's a little awkward for me to talk to the back of your head like this!”
Xu Yunfei was stunned for a moment, and then he said in a muffled voice,""I'm not turning anymore. It's not easy to put my legs down like that.”
Liu Xiaoyu heard Xu Yunfei's words and covered her mouth to laugh. She said,""Look, the rain is almost falling on you. Can't you come in?”
Xu Yunfei replied with an " okay " but his body did not move. The hole was too narrow. If he squeezed in any further, he would definitely lean on Liu Xiaoyu. In that case, he would feel very awkward and uncomfortable.
Liu Xiaoyu burst out laughing and said loudly,""Why don't you move? Are you still afraid of me? I'm not a White Bone Demon. How can I eat you?”
Although she couldn't see Xu Yunfei's face, Liu Xiaoyu knew that his face must be red. She especially wanted to see his expression now.
"There's no more space inside!" Xu Yunfei hesitated for a moment and said awkwardly.
Liu Xiaoyu already had a plan in mind. She said," I have an idea." She squeezed to the side. The straw was soft, so she squeezed a gap." You squeeze in!"”
Xu Yunfei didn't know what Liu Xiaoyu was talking about. He wanted to refuse, but he saw Liu Xiaoyu struggling to open a gap. If he refused, he was worried that she might be angry, so he only hesitated for a moment and moved over.
The two of them stared at each other for a moment before Xu Yunfei was defeated. He was usually resolute and decisive, but now he did not even dare to look at Liu Xiaoyu's burning eyes.
Liu Xiaoyu had already imagined this scene many times in her mind, and when she was really there, she couldn't help but feel nervous.
