A smell of sulfur spreads.
Li Xiaoya held up a wooden stick thicker than her wrist and patted the clothes.
"Is this good?" Xu Ruying asked in surprise.
Li Xiaoya nodded, took off the clothes from the rope, and gave them back to Xu Ruying. Then he turned around and carried out a small bamboo basket. It was filled with many small sandbags, all sewn together with rags. When he got closer, there was a strange compound aroma.
"What's this?"
"Sachet."
Xu Ruying had never seen such an ugly and rough sachet.
But Li Xiaoya picked them up and handed them to her one by one: "This is patchouli." "This is rosemary." "This is lemongrass." "This is mint..."
"Both have insect repellent effects, but the smells are different. Choose the one you like." Li Xiaoya said.
Xu Ruying was stunned: "When did you do it?"
Li Xiaoya said: "Last night."
Xu Ruying stammered: "You, you, are you trying to please me?"
Li Xiaoya looked at her in confusion: "Flattering?" She shook her head and said, "It's because you look terribly frightened."
Xu Ruying's face was a little confused. But when she thought that Xiaoya Li, who was so young, went up the mountain at night to pick various plants and herbs for her, and used them to make sachets with different scents for her to choose from, Xu Ruying felt a sense of joy after being surrounded by the sincere and passionate emotions of a child. At a loss.
To ease the embarrassment, Xu Ruying asked: "How can you distinguish so many plants?"
"That's all."
"..."
Xu Ruying's lips twitched and she said, "You really should be my parents' daughter."
Li Xiaoya looked at her curiously: "Why?"
"My dad likes to study plants, and my mom likes to study animals. They love nature and science. But I only want to study finance and media. I am a person who smells like copper in their eyes." Xu Ruying said a little sadly, " And I don’t have any talent in these areas, and I don’t even understand why wintersweet and plum blossoms are not the same thing!”
Ning Heng came out. This man was not very good at studying. When he heard this, he was shocked and asked: "What? Wintersweet and plum blossoms are not the same thing?"
Li Xiaoya nodded: "Yes, it's not the same kind."
Xu Ruying was shocked now: "How did you know?"
Li Xiaoya said: "It's written in the book."
"Book? What book?"
"The books in the library corner are donated by love. It says that wintersweet belongs to the family of the wintersweet family, and plum blossoms belong to the rose family."
Xu Ruying and Ning Heng looked at each other and suddenly felt that they were worse than a child.
"Do you always read books?" Xu Ruying asked.
"Well, if you help the teacher organize the books, you can also get little red flowers."
"The little red flowers you got can be exchanged for candies for Brother Sheng, right?" Ning Heng suddenly became a little greedy, "When will you exchange one for me?"
Sheng Yuxiao came late and uttered a few words: "Just daydream."
"What other books are there?" Xu Ruying was even more curious.
"A lot." Li Xiaoya clapped his fingers, "There are Andersen's fairy tales, architectural and garden design, red and black, horror stories, National Geography, stories about close friends..."
"Well, there are quite a lot of varieties." Xu Ruying was surprised.
"There shouldn't be too much emphasis on books donated to mountainous areas, as long as they are books." Sheng Yuxiao thought for a while and said.
"Then how many books have you read?" Xu Ruying asked again.
"I've seen it all." Li Xiaoya answered seriously.
Xu Ruying said without thinking: "Impossible! How could you have seen them all?"
Li Xiaoya said in confusion: "But I have seen them all, but I can't understand some of them."
Xu Ruying thought, let me just say this, how can you, a child, be able to read and understand all the books?
Li Xiaoya said: "Some words are weird and crooked, like tadpoles."
Xu Ruying looked confused: "What is this character? Small seal script?"
Sheng Yuxiao thought for a moment and then answered: "Arabic?"
Li Xiaoya suddenly realized: "It turns out it's called Arabic. I can only write it down, but I don't know what it says."
Xu Ruying was stunned again: "Huh? Can you write it down?" "I don't believe it!"
Xu Ruying immediately took out her business card and pen and gave them to her: "Just write a few words in the blank space and I will take a look."
"Oh." Li Xiaoya didn't refuse. He held the pen obediently and wrote in the blank space of the business card. No, it was more like drawing.
But the words she drew...
Xu Ruying and Ning Heng were both stunned.
Sheng Yuxiao was still awake and slowly uttered a sentence: "It's like printed words. Well, it is indeed Arabic."
Xu Ruying: "Damn it!"
Ning Heng: "Prodigy!"
Even the staff on the side felt numb as they looked at this scene.
Li Xiaoya's early wisdom and tenacity seemed to be innate to her, not just tempered by the environment. If you have such a talent, and if these rich second generations are taught everything every day, what kind of terrible person will they become when they grow up?
The staff didn't even dare to think about it.
"Sister." Li Xiaoya suddenly spoke softly. She said, "I just want to be my mother's daughter, not anyone else's."
She said to Xu Ruying: "You too. Your parents will only want you to be their daughter, and no one else will."
Xu Ruying looked at her blankly.
is that so?
"Li Xiaoya! Li Xiaoya!" At this time, someone shouted his name and ran closer.
It had been a while since anyone had bothered them.
Suddenly someone came, and Li Xiaoya was surprised. She turned around and looked over, but the man suddenly fell down and fell in front of Li Xiaoya. But he was so anxious that he didn't even bother to get up. He said in a hurry: "Someone, someone is looking for you! Say, say they are your relatives..."
Sheng Yuxiao thought of that damn Li Hongguang again, and immediately sneered: "Who doesn't have eyesight?"
The messenger swallowed his saliva and said, "No, it's not a distant relative, it's... it means, your relatives on your mother's side are looking for you..."
Li Xiaoya, who was still acting like a little adult and whose mood was extremely stable, unexpectedly shed two tears.
She took a step forward, then stepped back timidly.
The cold look on Sheng Yuxiao's face slowly disappeared.
So fast?
Is this the arrival of someone arranged by my uncle?
