    The Dong family's old house only has a patio, and there is no balcony to dry in the sun.  If you want to dry dried and shredded vegetables, you have to use a ladder to climb to the roof to dry them when the sun is good.

    Find a place where the slope of the bricks and tiles is small, spread the straw mats all the way, and spread the things to be dried evenly on it.  Usually, most of these things are done by Juntao.  Since he got married and moved out, all these big and small things fell on Dong Fang.

    Ling Weihua volunteered to spread taro shreds, and Dong Fang let him go. She was in charge of sprinkling some salt behind, and also took care to drive away the sparrows who came to join in the fun from time to time.

    The scent of shredded taro melts and diffuses in the sun, and from a distance there is also the smell of grass, chemical fertilizers, fishy smell of streams, and even the smell of milk from a child who doesn't know where it came from.

    A smell of food wafted over the roof of Dong's house. Dong Fang couldn't remember how long she hadn't felt such a lively atmosphere.

    The sparrows lived on the sycamore tree next to them. They were very courageous. When they saw half a mat of shredded taro drying on it, they swooped over in groups, picked up a few and ran out.

    Therefore, it is troublesome to cut and dry taro shreds, and it is not easy to guard them.  There are only one or two people, but there are a lot of birds.  If the sun is shining on the roof, no matter what, I am afraid that when it is finally collected, if only a quarter of it is left, everything will be fine.

    Dong Fang stepped on the bricks and tiles, carefully holding the bamboo pole to drive away the sparrows.  Ling Weihua straightened up and hurriedly said, "Dong Fang, be careful, don't slip."

    Dong Fang turned around to look, but saw Ling Weihua took off his coat and was knotting something.

    "It's too difficult for us to fight this sparrow individually. It's better to tie a dummy." Ling Weihua said, laughing, his hands circled several times, but he couldn't tie the knot well.

    Dong Fang took the coat from him, and after a short while, she made a cloth figure according to his wishes.  The two people worked together to put the cloth man on the bamboo pole, and then pressed his head under the brick tile.

    Sure enough, as soon as the dummy was erected, the little sparrow cautiously waited and watched in place, and it was no longer the crazy plundering it was before.

    Dong Fang turned around and glanced at Ling Weihua, and smiled: "Why didn't I think of this before?"

    Ling Weihua suddenly stretched out his hand, and couldn't help but tapped Dong Fang's nose: "This is called men and women matching, and the work is not tiring."

    Dong Fang's cheeks were still slightly flushed. This was the excitement after the dummy was tied just now, and it had not completely faded away.  Ling Weihua's words suddenly made her face freeze.  She lowered her head and looked at the shredded taro under her feet, feeling very empty in her heart.

    I don't know why, but this scene suddenly reminded her of the scene many years ago, when Shu Qing came to the house to say goodbye and helped kill the chicken, and she was there to help.

    Many years have passed, and Dong Fang still hasn't forgotten the parting scene that day, nor the gradually blurred face.

    She tried to forget it on purpose, but she has indeed forgotten it.  But when I suddenly thought of Shuqing, as soon as I was touched by the memories of the past, I couldn't tell what the feeling was, and it overflowed from the bottom of my heart.

    It felt a little cold, a little dazed, bit by bit drilled into the bones, it almost made her tremble in pain all over her body.

    Ling Weihua was a little surprised by Dong Fang's reaction.  He faintly felt that Dong Fang was a little unhappy.  He hurriedly whispered: "I'm sorry, I just"

    "It's none of your business. The sun was shining too fiercely just now, and I felt a little dizzy. It's okayit's really okay. Wei Hua, I've troubled you for a long time today. Let me take you down. The old lady should return  Waiting for you at home?"

    Dong Fang let Ling Weihua downstairs, and didn't say much after that, but watched him leave politely and thoughtfully.

    She pushed Ling Weihua away again, and drove him away again.  In the courtyard, she was left alone, secretly licking her wound.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
