Yao Yi knows what he's thinking, and looking at him with a smile means a lot, "really not? You're a little too fast this time! "

Gu Xiao to her cunning smile, solemnly said: "the past let it go, we should look forward."

Yao Yi was so amused by his words that he had no image to laugh, "it's not right to escape, the past is also a part of our life, I don't think I can forget it."

Gu Xiao is very angry and funny. Behind Yao Yi, there is a piece of green bamboo, which is reflected in the water. The water is clear. Her head is blue and white. The sun is not dazzling. But when he looks at Yao Yi's face, he thinks it is dazzling.

Yao Yi is still laughing happily. Suddenly, Gu Xiao kisses her forehead. She smiles and stares at Gu Xiao.

Both of them have done what they should do, and the number of kisses can't be counted, but Yao Yi's heart is still quivering with such a sudden kiss, and a little joy spreads from the bottom of his heart.

"There used to be an orange tree near here," Yao Yi stood up, pointed to the green bamboo and introduced it to Gu Xiao. "In autumn, it's covered with oranges. You can pick one basket at a time."

"Then why not?" Gu Xiao asked.

"It's too long. I'm old, and I'll be cut off," Yao said, pointing to the mountain behind. "Before, the fruit trees, apples, pears, and tea planted in the second half of the mountain have all been planted with chestnut, you know?"

"I know, I haven't seen it," Gu Xiao said honestly. It must have been eaten, but I really haven't seen what it looks like.

"Let's go up in the afternoon and have a look. This season, it should be ripe!" Yao Yi hasn't come back in recent years. He has heard Zeng Yulan. According to the time, he should be able to eat.

Gu Xiao nodded, and they went to the old house. The house was empty for several years, and no one cleaned it. After opening the door for such a long time, they could still smell the thick dust when they went in. Moreover, the light in the old house was not good, so they had to turn on the light when they went in.

There is a light bulb hanging in the middle of the living room. The light bulb emits a very dark yellow light. You can barely see a square table, several chairs, several benches and two shabby cabinets.

The one near the door made an attic style. There was a ladder beside it. Yao Yi introduced to Gu Xiao, "my parents used to put some old things on it and some firewood on it. It was scary. There were snakes in it and they crawled out and wrapped it on the beam."

Gu Xiao imagined the scene, inexplicably feeling a little scared. "Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid. I'm not afraid!" Yao Yi holds Gu Xiao's arm. "My father was not at home at that time. I was afraid of death with Yunduo and my mother. My brother was brave. He climbed up and caught the snake. Then he took it to the back mountain and threw it away."

"It's just catching a snake. It's not heroic," Gu Xiao said in a light tone. He didn't really like her praising Zheng Yunyi so much. It's too inexperienced.

"It's very powerful. Ordinary people dare not touch it." Yao Yi doesn't agree with Gu Xiao. After all, everyone was young at that time. She was frightened and cried. Zheng Yunyi was really brave!

Gu Xiao glances at her and doesn't speak. Yao Yi introduces the structure of the house to him. On the left side, in front of her is Zeng Yulan's bedroom with Zheng Jun, next to Zheng Yunyi's room, on the right side is her bedroom with Zheng Yunduo, and there are some sundries and stored rice and so on.

Gu Xiao is not interested in these things. He follows Yao Yi to her room and takes a look. It's a few square meters. There are two one meter two small beds. There's a cabinet and two desks near the wall. There's no independent bathroom. It's clear at a glance.

There is light coming in from the window, much brighter than the dark one in the living room.

"Don't you have four rooms in this house? Why did you and Zheng Yunyi squeeze through a room? " Gu Xiao asked casually.

"Isn't that young, just coming, afraid to live on your own?" Yao Yi felt his nose and felt that he was a little bit careful. They were very simple and could not care so much about such small things!

Gu Xiao didn't say anything. Yao Yi took him to the kitchen to have a look. He could walk into the kitchen through the rooms of Zeng Yulan and Zheng Jun.

The kitchen was built next to it later, and another door was opened to connect with the main house. However, it was close to the yard, and a door was opened, which was very convenient for access.

The kitchen is made of earthen stoves, which are made of yellow mud. There is no cabinet of any color. The area is covered with dust. There is a pile of wood in the corner, which should be used for burning. There is a small bench beside it.

The simple house, shabby and dilapidated, is where Yao Yi has lived for more than ten years, but this is clearly not what she should experience.

"What's the look like?" When Yao Yi saw Gu Xiao looking at her, he was full of pity and couldn't help laughing.

"I used to ask you whether you blame your grandfather and parents, but now I want to ask you again," Gu Xiao said directly.

Yao Yi thinks it's different from what she saw with her own eyes. Seeing it with her own eyes must be more powerful. Zhou Shiwen and her family have never been here. She doesn't know what kind of house she has lived in for more than ten years, and she doesn't want them to know.But Gu Xiao is not the same. She doesn't know why. She wants him to understand her past. She is willing to tell him all her experiences, so that they can make up for the past they haven't participated in.

At the same time, they can understand each other more deeply, just like her understanding of him is right, she likes him more, and she thinks of Gu Xiao if she wants, then she will let him understand her past.

"There's no point in hating or not, after all, it's all gone," Yao Yi said with a slight smile and a slow voice. "Every experience we have is unexpected. Maybe I seem to have lost more than ten years of glory and wealth, but at the same time I've got the affection that other people can't feel. What I appreciate most about this experience is that I met you 。”

This seems to be a reasonable speech, and finally evolved into a confession.

Gu Xiao smiled. "It's really like what you can say."

She is always so optimistic, bad things, can also find out the good aspects from it, and comfort herself at the same time, she is not nothing, in fact, there are still gains.

……

When they received Zeng Yulan's call, they went home together. The meal was ready. Yao Yi and Gu Xiao finished their meal, went upstairs to clean up the room, and then went to sleep.

After waking up, Yao Yi and Zeng Yulan said to go to Houshan to fight chestnut. Zeng Yulan found tools and went with them to let Zheng Jun rest at home alone.

"Some time ago, I talked to your father about coming back to collect chestnuts," Zeng said as she walked, saying that she was afraid of being stolen, and that she was too old to fall on the ground and ruined.

I went to the back mountain and climbed up the steps. Zeng Yulan found the piece contracted by their family. Yao Yi saw that there were a lot of things on the ground.

"These are all chestnut trees?" Gu Xiao asked uncertainly, after all, it's not the same as what he imagined. What's this thorn ball full of trees? It's really chestnut?

"Yes!" Yao Yi said with a smile, "you eat two layers of shells. I'll find you a tender one later, and I'll try it for you."

Gu Xiao is really new to see these things. He hasn't been to the countryside very much. He goes to some manor with his friends. It's not the same as the original village.

Zeng Yulan's action is quick. She uses the burning tongs to clamp the stabbing ball and throw it into the bag. Then she goes back and Prys it open. It's faster.

Yao Yi picked up some of them and put them in the basket. Looking at the cracked ones, he stepped on them with one foot and then broke them off with pliers. Then he took out the chestnuts, peeled them, peeled them and exposed the Yellow chestnuts inside.

Gu Xiao saw the chestnut like that, then he was sure that it was the one he had eaten. He ate one with Yao Yi's hand, sweet and crispy.

"How is it? Is it sweet? " Yao Yi asked expectantly, and then tasted one himself, "it's sweet."

"When I used to eat it, it was not the taste," Gu Xiao thought it was a different variety.

"It's not the same taste, of course. It's powder," Yao said. "It's raw. This kind of small one is tender, sweeter and crisper than the big one."

Gu Xiao nodded, "then you can peel another one for me to eat."

Yao Yi finds another tender one for him. Gu Xiao eats it. Yao Yi deliberately teases him. After feeding this, he gets an old one for him.

"Not as sweet as before," Gu Xiao frowned.

Yao Yi laughs, "then you can find it yourself."

Gu Xiao, "..."

Zeng Yulan saw the two of them talking and laughing, and reminded them, "don't eat too much, eat too much gas."

Yao Yi was so reminded that he did not dare to eat any more, nor let Gu Xiao eat more.

Three people picked up a big bag and a big basket and went down the mountain to go home. When they got home, they poured them out and moved small benches to deal with them in the yard.

Although Gu Xiao is the first time to make this thing, he has seen it several times, and then he gradually gets familiar with it, and it will be soon after.

Yao Yi picked out the small sweet baskets and put them on one side to make a distinction. The others were thrown into the big baskets.

"Tomorrow you go home, take some home, peel them and put them in the refrigerator to be frozen. If you want to eat, take them out and burn them," Zeng said.

"Well, I want to take some back, too!" Yao Yi is not at all polite.

Zeng Yulan smiled, "take it. This year, we have no plan to sell this chestnut. Take some for your brother and let him share it with their colleagues."

"OK," Yao promised.

Gu Xiao picks his eyebrows and says nothing. He continues to work.

The three of them finished processing all the chestnuts. It was almost dark. Yao Yi said that he would take Gu Xiao to the back mountain to have a look. He could not go there. He was going to go tomorrow and pick some tea to take back.

After dinner in the evening, several families not far away come to Yao Yi's house to sit down and talk with them. In fact, they are more curious about Gu Xiao brought back by Yao Yi. The topic is more or less inseparable from him.

After seeing them off, almost 9:30, Yao Yi and Gu Xiao take a bath and finally can go back to their room to lie down.
