Kite

  Kite

  Grandma parted Yang Tao's hair into two strands, braided two small pigtails, and then coiled them around her head. Yang Tao, looking neat and tidy, carried a small basket with the dirty clothes she had changed out of, and accompanied by Er Ya Tou, Xiao Yu, Shui Xiang, and several others, headed towards the creek.

  Originally, Grandma was going to have Yang Tao wash the clothes, but Yang Tao stopped her. Seeing that Grandma's legs and feet were not very agile, and hearing that she wanted to go to the small stream outside the village to wash them, Yang Tao said that she would do the laundry herself.

  She said so, but she was still very suspicious. In this era without washing machines, laundry detergent and laundry liquid, can clothes really be washed clean? There's no way out, it seems that even soap is scarce here, and we have to stay behind to wash our hair, and for washing clothes, we can only use grass ash, then use a stick to pound hard.

  Yang Tao didn't give up, thinking that if she could go back one day, this would be her experience of life, and who knows, maybe someday she could use this experience to write a time-traveling farming novel or something, and swindle some manuscript fees to spend.

  Grandma was still a bit hesitant, and just then Er Ya Tou came running over with two little girls who looked about the same age as her. They said they wanted to go out and play with Peach Sister. When they heard that Yang Tao was going to do laundry, they happily split up and went home, each bringing out a few dirty clothes, saying they were going to work, but actually they just wanted to play together.

  Yang Tao looked around and found that she seemed to be the oldest among the four of them. The suppressed desire to be a kindergarten teacher for a day was finally unleashed, and although she had restrained herself from singing children's songs all along the way, she couldn't help but tell stories. Just as she finished telling the story of Snow White, they arrived at the creek.

  Yang Tao saw that the three little girls were all listening with great interest, so she didn't have the heart to add a sentence "The one riding a white horse is not necessarily a prince, it could be Tang Monk", I guess if she didn't tell them, they wouldn't know who Tang Monk was.

  Just finished talking about Prince Charming, and again came to the creek side, Yang Tao thought of being thrown here by that white-clothed handsome guy without mercy yesterday. To say she has always been confident in her own Meng technology, but someone actually ignored her, making her inevitably feel a sense of defeat, mercilessly drawing N circles in her heart again.

  While circling in her mind, Yang Tao didn't stay still and didn't immediately wash the clothes, but instead looked around first.

  It should be late spring and early summer now, when many flowers and grasses are full of vitality. In this forest, there is not only Plantago asiatica, but also bitter vegetables and mother-in-law's needle. Yang Tao knew that Plantago asiatica was also called cartwheel vegetable, and some other names that Yang Tao couldn't remember. However, she was very used to calling it by its scientific name, Plantago asiatica, because when she first learned about this thing, she only knew its scientific name, which was used as medicine.

  But bitter melon and perilla leaves she has eaten, once in the spring, these things in supermarkets are more expensive than other vegetables, can sell for over ten yuan a pound, didn't expect to see so many here, looks like she's going to make a fortune!

  But Yang Tao only dug up some Plantago for the time being, because he didn't bring any tools when he came. Yang Tao had to pick up a small flat wooden piece and dig slowly.

  She first took the clothes to the creek to wash them clean, then found a block of shaded stone to put them on, and only after learning from Er Ya Tou's appearance, did she use force to pound those clothes. Whether they would really be clean, she could only wait until the clothes were dry to verify.

  "Taizi sister, what are you digging those grasses for?" Xiaoyu's eyes were not very big, but they were curved and looked like smiling even when she wasn't. She was very cute.

  What's going on? Yang Tao was stunned for a moment. She thought back to yesterday, when she had secretly laughed at Pei Yifan not recognizing the car in front of him after living here for ten years. Could it be that others didn't recognize it either? That shouldn't be! Yang Tao remembered that the earliest record of car in front grass was in the Book of Songs, and people back then already knew that it could be used as medicine or food!

  Alright, it seems she needs to give these kids some health education and cooking lessons.

  "I see grandma's cough is very serious, dig this back and use it to treat grandma's cough!" Yang Tao still had the habit of speaking softly to the children, and for a while, he couldn't change it. "Moreover, this can be eaten, made into soup, or cold mixed, or boiled and dipped in sauce. However, not everything can be cured, and there are side effects for people who are not suitable."

  "Can this cure a cough?" Er Ya Tou stared at Yang Tao with her big eyes that took up almost one-third of her small face, looking puzzled and distrustful. "What are the side effects?"

  "It's just not suitable for everyone to eat." Yang Tao replied simply.

  "Who is suitable for eating and who isn't?" asked Shuixiang.

  "This..." Yang Tao was really stumped, she wasn't a doctor or nutritionist, how could she know such details? The little knowledge of wild herbs in front of the car was still told by her grandmother when she was young.

  "After all, if not every day, anyone can occasionally eat a little bit." Yang Tao replied ambiguously, while highly appreciating Shui Xiang's desire for knowledge. It seems that her idea of opening a kindergarten is promising!

  "Well, let's also dig some back home." The several little girls who had finished washing clothes didn't want to idle around either. Running and playing all over the mountains was their delight.

  "Slow down, slow down, don't run too far! We still need to go back home and cook dinner!" Yang Tao looked at the quickly disappearing Er Ya Tou and her friends, shaking his head. It seems that this place produces a lot of silly girls like Lyu Zi!

  However, the little girls were not very greedy and may not have fully believed their "Peach Sister". Each of them dug up a few plants and then ran back with flushed faces. Clearly, digging wild vegetables was just an excuse, and they really wanted to run around.

  Jiang saw Yang Tao digging sweet potatoes, and several people couldn't help asking many questions, then symbolically dug a few more, washed them clean and put them aside.

  Yang Tao saw that neither of the two girls had any intention of going home immediately, so she simply sat down on a rock and gazed up at the sky for a while. She super loved the sky in this era, blue and transparent and far-reaching, truly pure blue without pollution!

  The two girls were also quietly scattered, learning from Yang Tao's appearance, looking at the sky, even their postures were exactly the same. Yang Tao occasionally glanced around and couldn't help but burst out laughing, these ones had a strong ability to imitate.

  "Big sister Peach, look! What's that?" Little Jade suddenly widened her crescent-shaped eyes and pointed at the sky.

  Yang Tao followed Xiaoyu's finger and looked over there.

  Not far away from the tree, there was a flash of eye-catching red, which fluttered lightly for a few times and quickly fell to the ground, also making a few soft whistling sounds.

  "Kite!" Yang Tao called out lightly. But it seemed like a kite with a broken string. "I'll go take a look. You guys sit here, don't move."

  Three maids nodded in unison, their faces filled with a bewildered expression, and they watched Yang Tao leave with some sympathy.

  Is there something wrong with Sister Taozi's eyes? Although they haven't played with kites, they've all seen them. Lao Xia's family, Xia Dongyun, even bought one in the town this spring and brought it back to the village to show off. It was a light, floating thing tied with thin strings. How could it be so big?
