Chapter 478: Morning in the Mountains
The copper coin is intoxicated in the dream of blooming mountain flowers and spreading phoenix wings.
This scene happened every night in her dreams.
The next morning, she jumped up. It was already dawn. Sister Xiang was not in bed, only Xiaoxue was there.
As soon as she got up, Xiaoxue raised her head to look at her, then lay down again and closed her charming eyes.
She walked to the window and listened to the chirping of birds outside. She could feel the waking up of all things even more clearly in the mountains.
Where is my sister? She put on her clothes and walked outside. Gu Keai also came out from another room.
"Good morning! Little drunkard!" Gu Keai greeted.
"You are the drunkard?! I'm not drunk." Tongqian now feels very sober.
"Don't you know you're drunk?" Gu Keai asked curiously.
"I drank a little too much, so I went to sleep." Tongqian was still quibbling.
"I want to fly, fly, fly, fly!" Gu Keai imitated her drunken words.
"Me? Hahaha." Tongqian laughed, and the birds on the tree fluttered and flew away.
"Look, you let them fly." Gu Keai said jokingly.
"Where is Sister Xiang? Is brother-in-law still sleeping?" Tongqian suddenly remembered and asked.
"Brother-in-law is still sleeping. Where is Sister Xiang? Didn't she go to dig garlic for you? You wanted to take it away yesterday." Gu Keai suddenly remembered this.
"Let's go to the creek and take a look." It was already bright at this time, and they walked towards the creek.
They came to the creek and saw that there was more water today. On the opposite side of the creek was a pine forest. The dark and thick trees made a rustling sound when the wind blew.
Tongqian felt more familiar with the creek. They followed the creek southward to look for Sister Xiang. After searching for a long time, they still couldn't see Sister Xiang. Tongqian couldn't help but get anxious. She couldn't help but shout, "Sister Xiang, Sister Xiang."
There was an echo in the woods in the distance. At this time, two little squirrels jumped to their side, jumped in front of them, and looked back at them. "Do you think they are leading us somewhere?" Gu Keai said to the little squirrels.
"Let's go, follow them and see where they take us." Copper Coin hurriedly followed the little squirrel.
"I'll go to the pine tree opposite and take a look." Gu Keai said as he floated to the tallest pine tree opposite and looked around.
Two minutes later he floated back, "Nothing to see, just a forest."
The two little squirrels were looking back and waiting for them, and they quickly followed.
After walking for a distance, "I feel we are almost at the top of the mountain. Will Sister Xiang be in danger?" Tongqian couldn't help but ask.
"No, she has been here for more than 20 years. The animals are familiar with her and will protect her." Gu Keai persuaded Tongqian not to be nervous.
Two little squirrels were jumping happily in front. They followed the little squirrels to the other side of the stream. After walking about 200 meters, the two little squirrels stopped moving and kept jumping in the same place.
"Why don't you leave here? Is Sister Xiang nearby?" Tongqian asked curiously.
"How could you forget? Let me try my technique." Gu Keai said and closed his eyes.
Tongqian looked at the empty space in front of him. He felt that this place was familiar. It was like the same terrain as the house where his sister lived.
Gu Keai opened her eyes, "Sister Xiang is in a cellar, packing medicine. We just need to wait for her."
"Is there a cellar nearby that is specifically used to store medicine?" Tongqian also thought of this.
"It seems so." Gu Keai agreed and ran over to tease the little squirrels. The two little squirrels were very smart and kept jumping around with Gu Keai.
Suddenly, the two little squirrels stood up and looked at the same place, and saw Sister Xiang coming out with two bags on her back.
"Xiao Huan, Xiao Le, you brought people here!" Sister Xiang greeted the two little squirrels in front of her. The two little squirrels squeaked beside Sister Xiang's legs.
"You got up so early. I thought you wouldn't wake up until I got back." Sister Xiang said, looking at the two of them.
Gu Keai took the two bags from Sister Xiang and said, "You are taking the Chinese medicine. There are so many!"
"I'll take it back for you. You can use it in the hospital." Sister Xiang said naturally, and took out an empty bag and a shovel.
"Do you want to dig more vegetables?" Tongqian asked again.
"Yes, let's dig some shepherd's purse and garlic on the way back. These are the two things we can eat now." Sister Xiang said with a smile.
Tongqian held a bag for his sister, which contained shepherd's purse and garlic that his sister had dug. They walked along the way, digging wild vegetables and felt that this kind of life in the wild was not bad.
"Sister, when do you plan to go back?" Tongqian couldn't help but ask.
"I have agreed with your brother-in-law that he will pick me up on the weekend." Sister Xiang gave Tongqian this direct answer, and Tongqian knew there was no need to persuade her anymore.
Not far from the residence, looking at the curling smoke, "Your brother-in-law is cooking, you can go back after eating, don't delay your work."
Tongqian and Gu Keai looked at each other and accepted it silently.
