Yi'er Mountain is very high.
The wonderful thing is that one side of the mountain is tall and steep, and the other side is low and gentle, forming different terrains such as the "back of the chair" and the "seat of the chair."
The place where Mingxi wanted to take her daughters was the "chair seat", which was about five or six stories high. The path was difficult to walk, and was full of stones that were painful to the feet, and creeping weeds that were easy to trip over. Otherwise it's just low thorny bushes without a decent tree.
Ming Xi took her daughter and walked up hard, thinking: At this height, just building a stone step will not affect travel, and living high up can see far and the scenery is better.
All in all, it’s just a small problem, don’t worry about it~
The mother and daughter walked and walked, encouraging each other, maybe because the mountain already belonged to them, so even if they were tired, they felt as if they were tired at home, and their mood was bright.
When Ming Xi and her daughter finally climbed up the mountainside and saw the vast open space, the last bit of fatigue was finally gone!
It feels like you have walked through a rugged narrow alley with great difficulty and suddenly come to a huge playground!
marvelous!
Even the air is fresher!
The miraculous workmanship of nature has made the mountainside as smooth and regular as if it had been split. The exposed rock formations are extremely solid, and only the vicinity of the rock walls are covered with soil and vegetation. This means that if she wants to build a house here in the future, she can Simply skip the most troublesome step of leveling the foundation.
The three children were also shocked, their mouths opened into an "O".
Xiaoxue: "Wow..."
Man Jing: “It’s so empty here, there’s nothing.”
Ye'er: "It's so big. You can build a very big house..."
Ming Xi pursed her lips and smiled, ran a few steps happily, lowered her head to pick up a small stone, and waved to her daughters: "Come here quickly!"
She bent down and drew a line on the ground with a stone, and drew a big circle! Then he put his hands on his hips and smiled: "This will be our yard from now on!"
Xiaoxue exclaimed in surprise: "Our yard is so big!"
"Of course! The whole mountain is ours!" Ming Xi bent down and continued drawing, drawing rectangles one after another behind the circle, and said, "This will be the living room from now on! Then...here will be Ye'er's room. Man Jing's room is next to Ye'er's... We also need a study room, as well as a kitchen! Yes, we also need a storage room..."
Xiaoxue stamped her feet anxiously, "Mom! Xiaoxue also needs to have her own room!"
"Okay~" Mingxi smiled and handed her the stone, "Where Xiaoxue wants to build the room, you can draw it yourself, okay?"
"Okay!" Xiaoxue's voice was extremely loud. She excitedly took the stone and began to draw circles on the ground hard.
When Manjing saw her little sister painting, she was eager to try it. She looked around and found a small stone. She jumped in front of Mingxi and said, "Mom! Can I add a small pool in the garden? I want to raise fish. !”
"Add!" Ming Xi waved his hand boldly, "Add a big pool! Raise a few more!"
Ye'er looked at the second sister, then the third sister, and finally looked at Mingxi, "Mom, I want to add a well next to the kitchen, so that I don't have to go to the river to fetch water for drinking water in the future."
Ming Xi's heart warmed up after hearing this, and she walked over and gently held Ye'er in her arms, "Ye'er, you can't get well water in the mountains, but there are springs in many mountains. We can find a way to bring the spring water to our home. It’s at the door, so you don’t have to go to the river to fetch water.”
If it were in the past, Ye'er would probably have doubted Mingxi's words, but after getting along with her for the past few days, Ye'er has fully trusted Mingxi, so she nodded and responded innocently: "Mom is right!"
Mingxi felt that the child should be a little childish, so he teased Ye'er: "Would you like to set up a swing in the yard?"
As expected, Ye'er's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously, "Yes! I want the swing!"
Manjing and Xiaoxue also cheered after hearing this, "We are going to have a swing at home!"
Mingxi said proudly, "What's this? Mom can make you a seesaw!"
The girls cheered even louder!
Mingxi was suddenly inspired and thought that it would be better to have a set of all the children's facilities. Anyway, the place was big enough. She wanted them all, including swings, seesaws, slides, and rocking horses!
However, if there are many facilities, the location must be planned well. It is best to divide a separate area as a special children's play area.
Ming Xi looked at the large open space halfway up the mountain with an unobstructed view, feeling full of ambition. Through her imagination, it seemed as if buildings were already rising in front of her eyes!
Just as she was immersed in her fantasy, Ming Erzhuang's shout suddenly came from the bottom of the mountain——
"Aunt! Aunt! It's not good!!!"
Ming Xi came to the rock wall and looked down. Oh my god, the slope down the mountain was too steep. How did they climb up just now?
As the saying goes, it's easier to go up the mountain than it is to go down the mountain. Mingxi could only walk down slowly sideways, and he had to take care of his three daughters, for fear that one of them would slip down the mountain.
Ming Erzhuang stood at the foot of the mountain and shouted to her: "Auntie! Hu Tie and his people are here to trouble you! My mother asked me to tell you, find a place to hide quickly!!!"
Cha——
Ye'er was so frightened that her center of gravity became unstable and she almost fell.
Mingxi held her eldest daughter's hand tightly and comforted her softly: "It's okay. Let's go down slowly. Don't be anxious."
As if sensing her mother's peace and calmness, Ye'er nodded slightly, stared at the road under her feet carefully, and walked down bit by bit.
After walking through a steep slope, the mountain road further down becomes much smoother and less dangerous.
Ming Erzhuang was anxiously circling below. As soon as he saw Ming Xi and his three daughters coming down, he hurriedly greeted them and said, "Auntie, you should hide quickly. Hu Tie has brought many people here!"
"Is there a lot?" Mingxi was short of manpower, and he couldn't help but look happy, "How many are there?"
Ming Dazhuang stared and replied: "There are four!!!"
Mingxi: "…………"
It seems that my nephew has a little problem understanding the concepts of more and less.
"Don't worry, he stole my things, and I'm just looking for him." Ming Xi said, "Please help me take Ye'er and the three of them home first. Where is Hu Tieren now?"
Seeing that his aunt didn't respond at all, Ming Erzhuang couldn't help but froze, "Oh...here, at the entrance of the village, Li Zheng and my father are leading people to stop him, I'm afraid they can't stop him."
"Okay, I understand." Mingxi patted Ye'er's shoulder, "Be good, take your sister to your aunt's house."
Ming Erzhuang was actually only one year older than Ye'er, but he was already very conscious of being an older brother. He took the initiative to pat his chest and said, "Ye'er, Manjing, Xiaoxue, follow me! I'll take you back via the trail!"
After these children left, Mingxi went to the entrance of the village.
To get to the village entrance, you have to pass through the wasteland she bought. Five special "prisoners" are still building their thatched houses, but the speed has slowed down and there is a strange hesitation in their movements.
Obviously, they heard Ming Erzhuang's yelling just now and knew that Hu Tie had brought people to rescue them.
Ming Xi passed by them, turned to look at the thatched house that had already taken shape, and said with a smile: "Build another house, I'm afraid there won't be enough room for you."
