There were no more eggs in the car, so they went home much faster than when they came. It was only 12:30 pm when they arrived home.
After entering the house, he first placed the two pig hooves into a basket hanging from the beam of the house.
He knew that Xiao Ji was hungry, so he washed the piece of pork with water, picked up a small piece of lean meat, and cut it into fine shreds. He prepared chopped green onions and garlic cloves, took a big bowl, and mixed some noodles to make a pot of fragrant shredded meat noodle soup.
When the soup was ready, he first filled Xiao Ji's small bowl, then picked out all the shredded meat from the pot with chopsticks and piled it into Xiao Ji's bowl. Then, he scooped a bowl for himself.
The brother and sister sat opposite each other at the small square table under the big apricot tree.
Xiao Ji sensibly picked up two pieces of shredded meat from his bowl and placed them in his brother's bowl. The siblings looked at each other and smiled. They lowered their heads and ate quietly.
After the meal, Xu Yunfei told Xiao Ji to play with Xiao Hei in the yard while he strolled out of the village.
He first went to the field to check on the sprouting of the corn. Most of the seeds had already broken through the ground, revealing tender sprouts. The sprouting rate was generally normal. If there were no other unexpected disasters, there was no need to worry about the food problem this year.
Coupled with the disaster relief funds, it might be easier this year than in previous years.
Xu Yunfei's family had less land, so the damage caused by the hail disaster was much smaller. The disaster relief funds were distributed according to the number of people. In this way, his family did not suffer any losses.
The only thing that worried him was that he had yet to receive the disaster relief funds.
To the west of Donglongquan Village, there was a hill that ran from north to south. It was about two to three thousand meters long. The east side of the hill was low-lying, which was the paddy field of Donglongquan Village. The west side of the hill was high-lying, which was dry land.
There was an ancient legend in the village that said that this mound was transformed from a giant dragon.
Not many people believed this now.
A more scientific explanation was that this mound was once a river embankment, and the location of the paddy field was actually a river.
According to the old man in the village, a ship full of gold and silver treasures sank in the river in a certain dynasty.
Every village had its own legend. As for whether the legend was true or not, there was no way to verify it.
Xu Yunfei climbed up the hill. He liked to walk on this hill. There were too many childhood joys on it.
When he was young, he often brought Han Tuo and Liu Xiaoyu to play on the mound.
They had enough matches in their pockets to play with all day.
There were roasted sweet potatoes, potatoes, peanuts, roasted corn, roasted grasshoppers, and even a snake. The taste was simply too beautiful.
Every time they returned home, it would be dark. Before they returned home, they would pile up a pile of straw and light it up. They would jump around the fire a few times before leaving reluctantly.
As he walked towards the village, he looked back at the bright bonfire. At that time, Xu Yunfei was carefree and happy like a bird flying freely in the sky.
……
He walked south to the end of the mound and was about to turn back when he saw a figure walking toward him from afar.
Xu Yunfei stood still and watched the figure approaching with her fluttering dress. He felt inexplicably nervous.
He wasn't nervous even when he was facing the two police officers who had ill intentions in the morning. However, at this moment, his heart was beating uncontrollably faster towards this childhood friend of his.
Liu Xiaoyu walked closer. Their eyes met and they smiled at each other.
"Why are you up here so early?”
Liu Xiaoyu said with a smile as she approached Xu Yunfei.
"I came out early to check on the sprouting of the seeds in the field. Then, I'll wait for you at the sentry post.”
Xu Yunfei didn't want Liu Xiaoyu to worry, so he didn't mention that he was arrested for selling eggs.
"The summer vacation passed so quickly.”
Liu Xiaoyu casually found a topic to chat about.
The two of them stood side by side on the high mound and looked west.
The vast fields made people's hearts become broader.
The mountains in the northwest were tall and tall, and they looked majestic.
Liu Xiaoyu pointed at the white cloud floating on the northwest side of the mountain and said,""Look at those clouds, aren't they pretty?”
Xu Yunfei looked over and saw a long and narrow white cloud slowly changing its shape on the farthest peak of the Five Dragon Mountains.
First, the edges became smoother and smoother, and then the entire cloud became longer and longer.
One end of it slowly turned into the shape of a dragon's head.
The dragon head was becoming more and more lifelike. Its eyes, ears, mouth, whiskers, and horns were gradually becoming clearer. Four dragon claws were also slowly extending from its body. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the dragon head was not tightly connected to its body.
" Ah, a dragon-shaped cloud," Liu Xiaoyu clapped her hands happily." I'm so lucky today. I saw a dragon-shaped cloud too."”
A breeze blew in his face, and Xu Yunfei's body couldn't help but tremble.
Dragon-shaped clouds appeared again. Last time, there was a hail. What about this time?
Moreover, he had dreamed of dragons for the past two nights. Liu Xiaoyu had also dreamed of dragons. Coincidentally, she saw a dragon formed by clouds today.
The uneasiness that had been shrouding Xu Yunfei's heart grew stronger.
"I hope this is superstition!"
Xu Yunfei thought to himself.
