I played as an assistant in ancient times

Qian Zhuangzhuang drank the water in small sips, then asked for a capful before saying, "My mother said that my father and eldest brother took all the money they had to the county town, and there is not even a grain of salt in the house today.

I was thinking of going into the mountains to check out the traps set by my father, but I didn’t expect there was really a little wild boar inside. But soon after I picked it up, it was chased by its entire family.”

He looked around at the fields and said, "Uncle He, do you know whose rice seedlings were destroyed? I'll come down and plant some new ones."

"There are only four or five families..." When Uncle He called out the names one by one, he heard noisy shouting in the distance. When he looked up, he saw those people running towards him holding forks, shovels and other things.

As a result, everyone ran closer and saw, "Oh my god, there are four wild boars!"

"The smallest one weighs about 40 to 50 kilograms."

"It can be sold for several taels."

"Thin and worthless."

"Dear uncles, a wild boar has escaped and may come back to take revenge at any time." Shen Xiaoye raised his voice to warn.

Uncle He also said loudly: "It's a sow weighing two or three hundred kilograms. It will come again. It's best for everyone to patrol together."

Someone agreed: "That's right."

"Oh, my sweet potato seedlings." Someone ran to his own sloped field.

Someone else asked eagerly: "Lao He, can we kill and sell these pigs right away?"

Since they were not involved, they naturally wouldn't get it for free. While everyone was talking, Shen Xiaoye caught a glimpse of his aunt who was squeezing in through the crowd.

She was just about to push the people away to help, but unexpectedly her aunt rushed in, touched her up and down, turned around and slapped her cousin on the back.

The sound of snapping instantly stopped the villagers from talking. Everyone saw Xiao Ye hugging Huang: "Aunt, my cousin is not hurt."

"I'm worried that you'd get hurt." Huang was almost scared to death. What was going on with the two naughty kids these past two days?

When Xiaoye hugged her, she slid to the ground, closed her eyes and fainted in the blink of an eye.

"Auntie."

"mother."

"From the Changshou family?"

"Water..." Qian Zhuangzhuang handed over the bamboo water tube.

Shen Xiaoye pressed Huang's philtrum and yelled, "Move away, it's hot and people are getting suffocated."

"Why don't you all step back a few steps." Shen Cungeng also hugged his mother and hurriedly cooperated with her to lay her down.

The crowd then realized that the siege was too tight, and they retreated in panic. Someone shouted, "The Taoist priest is here."

Everyone quickly made way, and Taoist Master Hengxi quickly came in, took out a long needle and started to prick Huang's Shenmen, Hegu and Shifeng.

After a few seconds, her blood oozed out from her fingertips and she slowly woke up.

"Water." Taoist Master Hengxi reached out and took Zhuangzhuang's water bottle and asked Shen Xiaoye to feed him.

Shen Xiaoye quickly asked, "There are salt, sugar and mint in it. Can I use it?"

"Of course she can. She was so frightened and ran too fast that she fainted due to lack of blood supply." Taoist Master Hengxi also heard the gong in the village and was ready to lend a helping hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin's voice came from outside the crowd: "Xiao Ye, Geng Ge'er."

"grandmother."

"Grandma, why are you here too?"

"What happened to your mother?" Lin and her elder sister-in-law Qian came running over, each holding a hoe in her hand.

Seeing his eldest daughter-in-law lying on the ground and her two children covered in blood, he immediately threw away his hoe and squatted down. He found that she was drinking water and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, I'm fine." Huang pushed the water bottle away and tried to get up, but Shen Xiaoye refused to let her. She held her shoulders tightly and signaled her cousin to hold her down as well, saying, "Drink more sugar water."

Lin asked Taoist Xiang and was relieved to know that there was nothing serious. Then he asked Zhuangzhuang about what happened.

But Zhuangzhuang couldn't remember it at all, so Uncle He had to tell it to her and everyone else.

Finally, everyone divided the wild boars and prepared to take them back to slaughter them. At the same time, they decided to leave seven or eight people to guard nearby. When the weather got a little cooler, they would organize people to go into the mountains to chase the runaway wild boar.

When Shen Xiaoye pushed the cart over for his aunt Huang to sit on, he suddenly heard someone say, "Geng'er, the water in your field has overflowed the land."

"I'll be right there." She and her cousin hurried over to change the water outlet, neither wanting to listen to Huang's nagging anymore.

They didn't know that Huang was telling her mother-in-law, "Mom, I think we shouldn't let them come here again recently. I'll be the one watering the fields..."

"No, I just asked the eldest daughter-in-law of the He family to help with watering until dusk today, and I will pay him 20 cents for half a day.

If you can’t finish watering, wait for Sui Ge’er to come home.” Lin was more worried about the two children than she was. She came to the fields with something to ask for two days in a row.

Huang thought about it and was about to agree when she noticed the two children walking towards the slope. "Mom, what are they doing now? Don't go up the mountain again."

"No." Lin was sure that the two little ones knew the importance of the matter.

Shen Xiaoye and Shen Cungeng did not plan to go into the mountains at noon. After they opened the canal and blocked the water leakage in the fields, the little black cat said, "Shen Xiaoye, there is a rabbit hole under the ditch where you fell."

"Are there any rabbits?"

"Just now, I don't know now."

"I was wondering how he slipped. Let's go and take a look." Shen Xiaoye immediately went to find his cousin.

Shen Cungeng was very willing to dig out the rabbit's nest: "Look, I was just busy shoveling dirt to cover the blood and didn't look there carefully.

After the spring begins, rabbits start to build nests everywhere. They are very fertile and eat crops very quickly.

He touched his belt: "It just so happens that I have my flint with me."

The two men got to work as soon as they said they would. They picked up two buckets at the edge of the field, filled them with water, and found some dried weeds on the edge of the slope. They then walked carefully towards the water storage ditch.

The little black cat licked his whiskers and said, "A rabbit will dig several holes."

"So we should find out the enemy situation first." When they were two meters away from the ditch, Shen Xiaoye dropped the bucket and divided the work with her cousin. She even bent forward and gently dug the soil on the edge of the ditch where she slipped.

When she finally dug out of the hole, she looked up at her cousin who was searching somewhere else. It was not until she saw him squatting and waving his hand beside the sweet potato vines a few meters away that she pressed the bucket against the hole and looked for another one.

"I heard the noises they made down there." The little black cat pointed out a cave entrance five meters to the west without her having to look for it again. So when she put down the second bucket of water, Shen Cungeng had already brought large rocks to block the entrance and walked over.

He looked at the locations of the holes and said, “There should be only three holes. Let’s start fumigating now.

You go to the ditch and smoke them, and I'll use a bucket to cover them."

"Cousin, I'll go find a bag, otherwise the handle on the bucket won't cover the hole tightly." Shen Xiaoye wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.

Shen Cungeng put his thumb under his chin and said, "What if there is none?"

"Yes, there is movement down there." She thought the little black cat should have very sensitive ears.

Shen Cungeng didn't want to waste time: "They are very smart, maybe they will attack again."

"We found the rabbit hole." Taoist Master Hengxi, who had been patrolling the mountain for a while, jumped a few times and landed gently not far from the two of them.

He even handed over a torn sack and said, "Take it and use it. I borrowed it."

"Master, you are really a timely help. Please come to my house for dinner!" Shen Xiaoye took it happily.

With the sack and the Taoist priest, the rabbits in the hole were easily caught after the fumigation. Soon, a dozen escaped rabbits broke into the sack.

"A big harvest!" Shen Cungeng grabbed the bulging bag in triumph. The moment he picked it up, two big fat rabbits flew away from the mouth under his feet with a few whooshes.
