Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by. In six years, Neng'er has grown into a sixteen-year-old teenager. He has not grown much taller, and his body is very thin, but his strength is almost the same as that of Lei Fei, who is one year older and a head taller, and he is already a man.

"I heard that Brother Aneng rescued a girl named Xiaolan in Baiyun Village outside Guangzhou, right?" When Liang Jinlian heard that Li said that Huineng had grown into a sixteen-year-old teenager, she asked Interjected a question.

Mrs. Li smoothed the long strand of hair hanging under her forehead and said thoughtfully, "Oh, that seems to be the case. I remember one time, Xiaolan and her mother came to the door with a bag of fruit."

As soon as I saw it, I said, "Auntie, if you and your daughter come to visit me, you already think highly of me, a foreigner. Why bother to spend money to buy things?"

"I want it, I want it. This little thing shows the unanimous intention of mother and daughter. Please accept it, otherwise, I will feel uneasy..." Xiaolan's mother said as she took the bag of fruit. Pass it into my hand.

For a moment, I didn't know what was going on. I stood at the door and tentatively asked, "Auntie, what's the matter with you?"

Xiaolan's mother thought that Huineng would tell me about yesterday's desperate effort to intercept the frightened horse pulling the carriage in the city and save her mother and daughter. It turns out that I didn't know anything.

So, Xiaolan and her mother told me exactly what happened in the city yesterday. At the end, I was moved and took my hand and said, "Mom, you have raised a good son with such a good nature. He is the lifesaver of our mother and daughter!"

After hearing what Xiaolan's mother said, I finally understood. It turned out that Neng'er went to the city yesterday to carry firewood to sell. In desperation, he pulled up a wooden stake on the side of the road and stopped the carriage being dragged by the frightened horse, inadvertently saving Xiaolan's life. Lan, mother and daughter...

Liang Jinlian felt very strange after hearing this. She thought: Huineng's rescue of Xiaolan and her daughter was almost exactly the same as the scene when she met the frightened horse in Lidongwei. Could this be...

Seeing Liang Jinlian sitting silently on the edge of the bed in a daze, Mrs. Li called out a few times, "Alian, Alian..." But Liang Jinlian didn't respond, so he shook her shoulder with his hand, " Ah Lian, what are you thinking about? You are so absorbed in your thoughts!"

"Oh...oh...Auntie, are you asking me?" Liang Jinlian was shaken a few times by Mrs. Li before she came back to her eyes from her imagination.

Seeing that Liang Jinlian had come to her senses, Mrs. Li continued talking——

Neng'er and Lei Fei still go to the mountains together to chop firewood every day, and they have an additional partner - Ding Li.

A few days ago, Ding Li from the same village dropped out of Boss Huang's private school and joined them in collecting firewood.

People say, three girls, one drama. And the three energetic teenagers together are even more of a joyful show - they compete with each other all the time and compete in everything, but without damaging their mutual feelings at all.

Ding Li is literate, has a very clever mind, and a very shrewd mind. Among the three of them, he often has the upper hand. What made him even more proud was that he also took the lead in the matter of Xiaolan, a flower in the village.

At that time, Xiaolan had become the most beautiful girl in the village.

The three of them all liked Xiaolan from the bottom of their hearts, but Lei Fei was the only one who dared to roar at the top of his lungs like this. However, he was facing the vast mountains and the deep jungle, not the window of Xiaolan's house.

Lei Fei's father is a kind-hearted man who often solves problems for the villagers. Naturally, his family and Xiaolan's family are family friends and have very close contacts. Therefore, in the eyes of the villagers, it was only a matter of time before the elders of the two families decided to decide their lives.

Ever since Neng'er stopped the frightened horse and rescued Xiaolan and her daughter from the rolling wheel, Xiaolan had been visiting her home from time to time. She would either hold a piece of paper shoe pattern or a piece of embroidery and ask me for advice.

The two of us, an old man and a young man, chatted non-stop, as if we were very much in tune with each other. Over time, Xiaolan became the most ingenious girl in the village. The red flowers she embroidered seemed to smell the fragrance; the green leaves she embroidered seemed to be swaying in the wind. Therefore, embroidery shops in the city rushed to buy her embroidery products.

However, in Ding Li's opinion, these situations are a piece of cake and there is no need to worry at all. Lei Fei has well-developed limbs, a simple mind, and a stupid look. What girl would like him? And Neng'er, a migrant living in a foreign land, is like a duckweed drifting in the wind, with no foundation to speak of, no money, and no food for the night. If he has any illusions about Xiaolan, he is like a toad trying to eat her. Swan meat - wishful thinking!

Among the three of them, Ding Li is the most handsome and clever. He is also literate, well-informed and well-off.

It is said that the reason why Ding Li dropped out of the Huang family's private school was because of Xiaolan.

When Xiaolan goes to the embroidery studio in the city to pick up materials or deliver goods, she always has to pass through Boss Huang's house. The eldest son of the Huang family - Ding Li's classmate - Master Huang always plays pranks and releases a vicious dog from the family to scare the timid Xiao Lan. Every time she was chased by a barking dog, Xiaolan was scared to death.

After Ding Li found out, he began to think of ways to punish this young man.

There is a wooden peg nailed in the toilet of Huang's private school.

Because the teacher is very old, he always has to hold the wooden peg with his hands before he can stand up after taking a rest every morning.

During class that day, Ding Li and Master Huang went to the toilet together, and they competed to see who could pee farther. Young people are very competitive by nature. After Master Huang lost to Ding Li, of course he was not convinced and wanted to compete with Ding Li in wrestling.

Ding Li saw that Mr. Huang was heavy and fat, and he was at a disadvantage when wrestling, so he suggested a competition to see who was stronger, that is, to see who could pull out the wooden peg in the toilet.

Master Huang was very smart and asked Ding Li to pull out first.

Ding Li seemed to have exerted all his strength, but the wooden peg did not move at all.

Master Huang saw the way, so when it was his turn to pull out the wooden peg, he shook it while pulling it out, so he easily defeated Ding Li.

The victorious Master Huang swaggered away surrounded by his classmates.

After losing, Ding Li had a proud smile on his face.

Early the next morning, when the gentleman stood up after finishing his inconvenience, the wooden peg suddenly came out, and the gentleman fell backwards into the latrine...

The husband quickly found out that it was Mr. Huang who loosened the wooden peg.

As a result, three of Mr. Huang's pointers were broken - the ones struck Mr. Huang's hand and head.

At this time, Master Huang understood that he had fallen into Ding Li's trap. So, he reported to his father, saying that the reason why he was beaten so badly by his husband was all because of Ding Li.

Boss Huang was naturally furious: You know, the reason why my Huang family's private school allows you poor little brats to study in vain is so that you can accompany my son in reading. I didn’t expect that you would dare to disturb Tai Sui! Get out, get out of here right now!

So Ding Li put down his pen, picked up his ax, and got together with Neng'er and others who were collecting firewood.

Mr. Huang did not change his bad habits and still instigated vicious dogs to scare Xiaolan for fun.

Neng'er said: "We should have a good talk with him, rationalize him, move him emotionally, and let him put himself in his shoes."

Lei Fei said: "He has itchy bones. Beat him up and see if he still dares!"

Ding Li kept shaking his head and rejected the suggestions of his two partners.

Lei Fei asked him what to do, and he smiled mysteriously and said that the mountain man had his own clever plan...

Liang Jinlian turned to Mrs. Li and couldn't help but ask, "What clever trick did Ding Li use?"

Li said: "Don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."

That day, it was the day when Xiaolan went to the embroidery room to make deliveries.

Ding Li took his two friends to a food stall selling fried glutinous rice cakes not far from Huang's house in advance. Youziba is a deep-fried sticky cake made from glutinous rice flour, and is best eaten while it's hot. But Ding Li insisted on buying a cold oil glutinous rice cake.

Lei Fei called out: "Ding Li, you don't have enough friends, you just have one, do you want to monopolize them?"

Ding Liyi glanced at him and said, "Are you a pig? You only know how to eat!"

Ding Li wrapped a lot of thin linen threads around the cold glutinous rice cake.

Lei Fei said, "Cold oil glutinous rice cake is not delicious to begin with, and now it is wrapped with rotten linen thread, making it even more inedible - a good oil glutinous rice cake has been wasted in vain."

Ding Li ignored Lei Fei. After wrapping the glutinous rice cakes, he asked the food stall owner to fry them again.

The boss looked at this special glutinous rice cake and looked embarrassed.

Ding Li quietly put a copper coin on his chopping board, so the boss fried the glutinous rice cake wrapped with hemp silk until it was crispy and fragrant without saying a word.

Ding Li wrapped up the glutinous rice cake and rushed towards the Huang family with Neng'er and Lei Fei.

He knew the time very accurately. They had just arrived near Huang's house, and Lan Mei was being chased by the vicious dog, barking and running away.

Ding Li threw the specially processed oil rice cake towards the dog.

The dog was very nimble and bit into the fragrant oily glutinous rice cake in one bite.

However, when it found that the oily glutinous rice cake just taken out of the oil pan was burning on its mouth, it couldn't spit it out anyway - the glutinous rice cake was already sticky enough, and the thin linen threads on it even got into it. The gap between teeth is entangled in its gums.

It wanted to vomit but couldn't spit it out, it couldn't swallow it, it wanted to roar but couldn't make a sound, it was so hot that it rolled on the ground...

It has sharp canine teeth and is completely useless. After that, when it saw Lan Mei again, not only did it not dare to chase or growl, but it went straight into its owner's crotch...

Ding Li and Lei Fei were friends who grew up naked and playing in the mud. Together they climbed trees to dig out bird's nests, went down rivers to fish for fish, and made mischief together.
