They came to the foot of the mountain they used to go to,
"Are you sure we want to camp here?" Jiara looked up at the top of the mountain and said.
"I like this place." Jie said, he chose this place only based on feeling, without any rational basis.
In the end they chose to pitch their tent on the flat open space. She raised her head and looked around. There were no signs of rolling stones, rolling logs, or weathered rocks above, and there was a clear mountain spring flowing down from the mountain beside it, and the entire valley could be overlooked from this clearing. This is actually an ideal campsite, Jiara finally commented.
Jie didn't do nothing as usual, he actually helped Jiara move the things from the car very consciously and helped set up the tent. After they set up the simple tent, Jie lit a fire on the side, and Jiara put the prepared food on the clean plastic film that had been laid.
But when Jiara put everything away, Jie didn't start the fire, but made his face black. It seemed to remind her of Baogong,
"Haha, your face is so dark," Jiara pointed at Jie's face and laughed,
"You dare to laugh at me!" Jie came over and wiped his two black hands covered with charcoal shavings on Jiara's face,
"No, help!" Jiara ran away in fright, but within two steps she was hugged by Jie. Then her face also suffered, and she could imagine what she looked like at this moment.
"You are darker than me, so don't laugh." Jie said looking at his masterpiece, then let Jiara go, and continued to squat down to make fire. It was the first time she saw him working so hard for something, and he was so persistent that he would not give up until he reached his goal.
This time he changed his strategy, he didn't directly think about lighting the charcoal. Instead, I lit a candle, let the wax drip on the charcoal, and then put some dead branches and fallen leaves under it, and the charcoal ignited very lightly. Then he looked up and smiled at Jiara like a soldier who has won a battle.
Jiara also laughed, because this was the result of Jie's own efforts. Maybe this is a very simple matter in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is not so simple for Jie.
When Jiara was turning over the grilled chicken wings and corn, Jie had already washed his face and came back. Now Ji Ai'er is the only black-faced woman left, and she handed Jie the almost roasted corn.
"Try it and see if it's too salty!" Jiara said to Jie.
"Pfft, it's bitter!" Jie said after taking a bite and vomited it out.
"No way! I specially chose sweet corn!" Could it be that she misplaced the seasoning, Jiara hurriedly took it over, took a bite, no, it's very sweet! "Nope!"
"Then you are ready to eat, I want to eat this." Jie reached out and took the chicken wings from the oven. Jiara was completely overwhelmed by him, even he did such a childish behavior.
"It's delicious, here you are! I'll bake it myself!" Jie handed Jiara the chicken wings he took a bite of, while he roasted cucumbers himself. Then Jiara could only stand aside and eat what he didn't want, and suddenly wondered if this was another way for him to express his concern.
