Dressed as the uncle of farming culture
Chapter 209
Because there is another family's land not far away, and there is an uncle working in that field, Xiao Le suppressed his joy, and put the jar directly beside him, into the original small back basket, without changing his expression. In the back basket was the hogweed he had cut before.
After finishing all this, he continued to work in a godly manner, his heart was bubbling with beauty, and when he finished his morning work, he ran home with a small basket on his back.
Today he is working in this field alone, while Jiang Xiuying and the others are tidying up the vegetable field behind the yard.
When he got home, Jiang Xiuying and the others just came back and were washing their hands there. Xiao's mother also asked whether it would be better to eat pickled vegetables for lunch or to have some cold vegetables.
"Eat meat!"
Xiao Le walked into the yard with great arrogance, then knocked the door of the yard, put down the basket, and reached into the pile of pig grass to take out the dark pot.
When Jiang Xiuying and the three of them saw it, they immediately showed surprise. Xiao's mother took it carefully. Xiao's father had already fetched clean water, and Xiao's mother put the jar in the water to wash the plaster.
"Here's a cork."
After washing it, they found that there was a wooden stopper on the entrance of the jar, which had blocked the jar tightly, and the water did not go in.
"I'm going to get the scissors. They have pointed ends. It's easy to do this," Jiang Xiuying said while getting up, and brought a pair of big black scissors after a while.
Mama Xiao fiddled with the scissors for a while before the cork was removed. Several people came over to take a look, with doubts on their faces.
Xiao Le narrowed his eyes and looked at the dark, thick long thing, "What is this?"
"His father, bring the tongs here."
Xiao's mother was afraid that it would be broken, so she asked Xiao's father to get the tongs, and carefully squeezed out those dark things.
It looked a little mysterious in the jar, but when you took it out and put it in a bright place, the faces of the few people became weird.
"...If I guessed correctly," Dad Xiao slowly pointed at the items, "This is shit."
Xiao Le: ...
Jiang Xiuying: ...
Mama Xiao yelled, glanced at the tongs in her hand, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I didn't hold it with my hands!"
The rake had been in there for some days, and it was dry, hard and black.
"My grass!"
Xiao Le is so angry.
Jiang Xiuying suppressed a smile, but was very curious, "Who is so bored to put this thing in and block it with a cork?"
All this effort, just for fun?
Mother Xiao clicked her tongue and said very calmly, "Don't worry, I'll take a look."
As she said that, she asked Papa Xiao to bring a hammer, and lightly hammered the jar open. At this time, Xiao Le suddenly jumped over from not far away, and quickly removed the pieces with his hands. Everyone looked over and saw that There was something like a small wooden lid at the bottom of the jar, and when the decayed wooden lid was taken, three golden nudes appeared in front of everyone.
They gasped.
Xiao Le reacted the fastest. After picking up the three things, they washed them in clean water before bringing them to the table in the main room for everyone to watch together.
It's very small, about the size of a long bean, but it's not worth the gold!
There are more than ten grams anyway.
"I'm a good boy!"
Xiao Le groaned, patted the table and said excitedly.
"You dug in the field over there in the woods?"
Mama Xiao asked.
"Yeah, after I dug it, the third uncle was working there, I didn't dare to get too excited, I just rushed back after finishing the work," Xiao Le looked at the three little things happily , "I understand why the person who buried this is so disgusting."
Who would have thought there was something good under the rake?
"...It's amazing too," Jiang Xiuying clicked her tongue twice, praising the person who hid things.
After the surprise, these three little things belonged to Xiao Le, who wanted to see them for a share, but Jiang Xiuying refused, so Xiao's mother asked him to keep them.
Xiao Le was overjoyed. Anyway, the work in the field was almost done, so he didn't go to the field in the afternoon, but happily found suitable materials from the woodshed, and made an ugly little cabinet by himself.
Xiao's mother got rid of the lock and key from the broken cabinet. Xiao Le put three small things in it, and put the cabinet under his bed generously.
I didn’t go to the market, and the bacon at home was finished, but when Xiao Le said he would eat meat at noon, Dad Xiao went to the next village to buy two carp at night. If you eat fish, you can go there to buy it, which is also convenient.
"Is pickled cabbage fish okay?"
There are a lot of sauerkraut in the house, and the whole family loves to eat sauerkraut made by Xiao Ma.
"of course can!"
Xiao Le was almost drooling.
He swiftly killed the good fish and sent them to the kitchen, and then he was kicked out by his sister-in-law and mother.
Sitting in the yard with Papa Xiao and laughing.
"Your luck is good this year." Dad Xiao nodded Xiao Le's head, "It would be even better if he could find a girl."
"I'm only sixteen!"
Xiao Le groaned.
"It's not too young, your mother and I got married when we were 17 years old."
Dad Xiao took out the dry tobacco, and smiled while wrapping it.
"You guys are baby lovers," Xiao Le pursed his lips, "Besides, your society is different from ours now, and we have to talk about it ourselves now."
"Bah," Xiao's father made a gesture to give him a pipe, Xiao Le hurriedly hid, his appearance made Xiao's father laugh and scold, "If you don't talk about your brother, just say that you love brother, you just talked about it yourself, tell me what happens how?"
Xiao Le shrugged, "Miserable."
Papa Xiao sighed when he heard the words, "Your uncle is very worried, and with the fact that Aiguo hasn't come back in the past two years, they are even more angry."
Xiao Aiguo is the younger brother of Xiao Aimin's family, only two years older than Xiao Le, but he is much more stable and mature, and also very assertive. As soon as the individual economy started to develop, Xiao Aiguo went with several bold people in the village Work in the provincial capital.
In the past, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother wished that they had half the promise of their little nephew, and they were content, but now they feel that it is good for their youngest son to be around.
Two sons, always have one by my side, and the meals are lively.
"Dad, you bought two big fish. I invite third uncle and uncle to eat together?"
"Alright, I'll go and tell your mother, you go and ask."
Xiao Le went to Uncle Xiao’s house first. Uncle Xiao and the others had already started eating, so they didn’t come over, so they ran to Uncle Xiao’s house. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they heard Aunt Xiao scolding Liu Yanyan. and Liu Yanyan's aggrieved cry.
Xiao Le scratched his head and smiled at his old man when he got home, "Third Uncle and the others are already eating, and Uncle and his family are arguing, so I didn't enter the house. It seems that we are the only ones to eat this fish."
"Then eat more," Xiao's father nodded, and then told Xiao's mother that if they didn't come, they would just eat one fish and not cook other dishes.
After eating, the family remained the same, sitting in the yard to enjoy the shade.
It wasn't dark yet, but it wasn't so clear, but Jiang Xiuying seemed to have light bulbs in her eyes, talking to them while knitting her sweater nimbly.
Xiao Le leaned over to look curiously, "Sister-in-law, are you blind typing?"
"What is blind typing?"
Jiang Xiuying asked curiously.
"You don't need to look at it with your eyes, you can get started directly, and if you don't make mistakes, it's called blind typing," Xiao Le explained briefly.
"When I was at home, I often knitted sweaters for my nephews and nieces, and I got used to it," Jiang Xiuying smiled, "But compared to my mother, I am not as good."
"I'm old and my eyesight is bad," Xiao's mother was very modest, and just as she was talking, Xiao Aimin hurried over.
"Second uncle and second aunt, please go and persuade my mother, she...she..."
"Oh, you kid can't understand what you're talking about, let's go!"
Xiao's mother directly pulled Xiao's father to follow.
Xiao Le looked at Jiang Xiuying, "Sister-in-law, are you going?"
"No," Jiang Xiuying shook her head, thinking of what Liu Yanyan said in front of Xiao Le before, she didn't like it, "Are you going?"
"I want to watch the excitement," Xiao Le chuckled, "I've understood since I was fooled once, she's fooling me, I treat her as my sister, she treats me as a fool, I'm not stupid !"
Jiang Xiuying chuckled, "Then you go, I will guard the house."
"Come on," Xiao Le immediately got up and walked out, "I'll tell you what happened when I come back!"
He ran fast, and it didn't take long to catch up with Xiao Aimin and the others, and they entered the gate of their house together.
At this time, the oil lamp was lit in the main room, and Aunt Xiao was sitting on the bench crying uncontrollably. Uncle Xiao next to her persuaded and persuaded, but she couldn't stop. Looking at Liu Yanyan, there was a red palm mark on her face, sitting in the corner Li, also crying convulsively.
"Oh sister, what's going on!"
Xiao's mother hurriedly pulled Aunt Xiao out of the yard and sat down, "Let's take care of things slowly, your eyes are not good, if you cry again, do you still want your eyes?"
Xiao Aimin nodded immediately upon hearing this, "Yes, Mom, don't cry, I won't go out, don't worry."
"I don't worry? Why should I worry? That person doesn't want us to have a good life!"
Xiao Le understood after listening for a while.
It was when the young couple were cooking in the kitchen, Liu Yanyan mentioned the matter of going out to work, and Aunt Xiao brought the washed dishes into the kitchen, just in time to hear this.
"Why buy a big house and live in a city in the future! What kind of heart does she have? She wants to get rid of our old couple!"
Aunt Xiao was very angry. If her son told her that, she would go outside to find a job, buy a house and bring them to the city to live a good life, she would be happy in her heart.
But when the daughter-in-law said that, she couldn't be bothered. Coupled with what happened these days, Aunt Xiao thought that Liu Yanyan wanted to send the eldest son to the city. Like the younger son, she would only come back during the Chinese New Year glance.
Then what happened to the old couple at home, no one found out.
"This heart is too vicious!"
Aunt Xiao pointed at the main room and cursed.
Uncle Xiao has been smoking dry cigarettes since Xiao Le and the others came, and did not speak. Liu Yanyan's crying became smaller and smaller, and in the end they only heard a little sobbing. Xiao Aimin repeatedly promised to Uncle Xiao that he would not go out. He and Dad Xiao also persuaded, which made Aunt Xiao feel more comfortable.
When the three of Xiao Le returned home, they were already out of sight. Xiao Aimin lit a small torch for them. Xiao Le was tall, and he walked at the end, so the two people in front could see him holding the torch.
When she got home, Jiang Xiuying had just finished taking a shower. After listening to Xiao Le's report, Jiang Xiuying was very puzzled, "It's not like this."
Mama Xiao clicked her tongue and said in a low voice, "When I was leaving, your uncle said that Liu Yanyan had lent 20 yuan to her natal family this afternoon. She said it was a loan, but she actually took it back. There is not much money in it, so I borrowed 20 yuan without blinking an eye, but I still can't get it back, don't you feel angry?"
In addition to the words heard in the evening, Aunt Xiao's dissatisfaction these days was immediately aroused, and she slapped Liu Yanyan in a hurry, and finally cried herself out of anger.
"Does Brother Aimin know about borrowing money?"
Xiao Le asked.
"I just don't know, Liu Yanyan borrowed the money on her own initiative," which made Aunt Xiao angry.
"Brother is also very angry," Papa Xiao sighed. "When we went, his face was very ugly. When we left, his face was not much better. It can be seen that he is still angry."
Jiang Xiuying frowned, thinking of what Xiao Weiguo said before she came back, Liu Yanyan is a troublemaker, so remember not to let the other party have anything to do with Xiao Le.
So she looked at Xiao Le, and before she could speak, Xiao Le saw what she meant, thinking that Xiao's mother was the one who was at fault, and the two of them looked over together.
Xiao Le shrank his neck, "I won't be so stupid anymore."
"You dare!"
Mama Xiao said this almost through gritted teeth.
Early the next morning, when they were having breakfast, Third Aunt Xiao came to the door and brought them half a basket of eggplants, "Our family's eggplants have grown well this year, so I'll send you some. Big brother and they have them too."
After putting away their eggplants, Third Aunt Xiao asked about the quarrel at Uncle Xiao's house last night, "We don't know, but the third uncle next door said that he passed by the door of eldest brother's house last night and heard the noise. This is what I said when I came to drop by at night."
At that time, they wanted to go and have a look, but the daughter had a low fever, so they didn't come.
When I saw Liu Yanyan, I immediately responded.
Xiao's mother regained her spirits and talked to her while eating. After sitting for a while, Aunt Xiao went to Uncle Xiao's house with the remaining half basket of eggplants.
About an hour and a half later, the other party came back, "That Liu Yanyan was sent back to her mother's house by Aimin, and the sister-in-law said that there must be a method for borrowing the money, and IOUs should be issued, don't be empty-handed."
"That's the reason," Xiao's mother nodded repeatedly. She was washing soybeans, and there were two liters of soybeans left at home. Xiao Le happened to want to eat bean curd, so he soaked it last night, and now he washed it and grinded it.
Aunt Xiao San still had something to do at home, so she didn't enter the door this time, and left after saying a few words.
"The tofu curd will be ready later, you send a big bowl to third uncle and uncle."
Mama Xiao said to Xiao Le who was cleaning the cage next to her.
"Eh."
Xiao Le agreed.
When he finished delivering the hot bean curd to Uncle Xiao's house and then went to Uncle Xiao's house, Xiao Aimin had already returned, but Liu Yanyan was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey, why are you bringing so many here?"
Aunt Xiao seemed to be in a good mood, she saw Xiao Le came over with a big bowl of bean curd and shouted.
"It's hot today, and it will spoil if you eat it the next day," Xiao Le smiled, and greeted Xiao Aimin again.
Xiao Aimin's eyes were black and blue, and he nodded not so energetically. When Aunt Xiao gave the empty bowl to Xiao Le, Xiao Aimin said, "I haven't had much work in the past two days. Do you want to go to the mountains?" shopping?"
"Looking for mountain goods?"
Xiao Le asked.
"When I came back, I ran into Erzhu. He said that he saw a hare in the mountains not long ago. It was very fat. Now that he has free time, he can go up the mountain to try his luck. If wild things can't be caught, even wild ones will do."
"When are you going?"
"Just tomorrow morning."
"Success, count me in."
Xiao Le agreed.
Knowing that Xiao Leming'er was going to the back mountain, Xiao's mother and the others didn't say anything, and there were no entertainment programs these days, especially the unmarried young people, who had too much time to spare.
"I want to go too," Jiang Xiuying said, "but my feet are so slow that I can't keep up with you."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Le took a big mouthful of fresh and delicious bean curd, "The next time my brother is on vacation, let's go to the mountains to play."
"I am coming too!"
Papa Xiao interjected.
"Mom going?"
"No, I'll prepare meals for you at home, and you can eat hot food when you come back," Xiao's mother said with a smile.
Early the next morning, Xiao Le was wearing long trousers and a long coat, carrying a small pannier, and a machete on his waist. After reconciling with Xiao Aimin, he went to find Erzhu.
Erzhu's home is in Houcun, so they can go into the mountains together in the past.
"Do you have a slingshot?"
Xiao Aimin asked.
"Of course I took it," Xiao Le chuckled, "It's also good to hit a bird."
Xiao Aimin also laughed when he heard the words, and the depression in his heart finally dissipated a lot. Yesterday, because the father-in-law issued an IOU, Liu Yanyan felt that she had lost face, so she didn't follow her back. Comfortable.
This reason, which is not a reason, made Xiao Aimin admit it.
What happened in the past two days made him feel that Liu Yanyan was very strange, and he didn't seem to know her at all.
"Brother Aimin?"
Xiao Le was talking to him when he saw the other party in a daze.
"Ah? What did you say?"
"I said, did you bring any dry food? What's the matter with us going into the mountain today, we will only come back in the evening."
Xiao Le pointed to his pannier, which also contained a pair of slingshots, but nothing else.
He has cornbread in his back basket.
"...I really forgot."
He got up, washed his face, and went out. Not only did he not bring dry food, he hadn't had breakfast yet.
"I brought a lot, let's eat together."
Xiao Le said in relief.
Xiao Aimin gave Xiao Le a shoulder, "Good brother."
When reconciling with Er Zhu, Xiao Le discovered that there was Liu San, who in the eyes of the villagers, Liu San was the worst kind of person, and the original body was better than the other party.
How do you count it as a mess?
Anyway, his hands and feet are not clean, he is lazy and not only a problem, but also a mess.
Liu San was not surprised by Xiao Le, he stared at Xiao Le with a dog's tail grass in his mouth, "You have small arms and legs, you are still a small baby, why did you come with your brother."
"You're just a baby!"
Xiao Le was very angry, and raised his arms to show his strength, "See? I have muscles!"
Liu San clicked his tongue, spat out the dog's tail grass, and raised his arm, and the bulging muscles defeated Xiao Le at once.
"My God, how did you practice?"
Xiao Le jumped over and pinched vigorously.
Liu San frowned slightly, "You still say that you are not a baby? Does it hurt?"
"Then you pinch it back?"
Xiao Le stretched out his hand, and Xiao Aimin hurried forward to hold him, "Oh, Liu San was joking with you."
"Aimin, you're too used to him. I haven't said anything yet, but you can't protect him enough." Although Liu San said so, he didn't ask Xiao Le to settle the score, which caused Xiao Le to feel a little guilty.
If you want to say why the original owner and Liu San didn't deal with each other, it's probably because every time Liu San met the original owner, he would taunt and ridicule him, which made the original owner feel uncomfortable.
It takes more than an hour to go up the mountain, and it still reaches the outer edge of the mountain, which is the place where everyone chops firewood and walks a long way. If you go inside for more than half an hour, there will be fewer traces of people walking.
"I saw several rabbits at the big green tree last time," Erzhu said with a greedy face, "It's a pity that I didn't have anything at that time, otherwise I really don't want to miss it."
"Rabbits don't eat grass by the side of their nests, so they must have moved," Xiao Aimin often went into the mountains and mentioned a few approximate locations. They searched one by one, and sure enough, they found a fresh rabbit rake somewhere.
Xiao Le became tense immediately, and they squatted in the grass at half a person's height for half an hour.
In the trap not far away, there is a vegetable cornbread donated by Xiao Le, just waiting for the rabbit to take the bait.
"Is this really going to work?"
Xiao Le, who was bitten several times by mosquitoes, couldn't help but said.
"Boy, can you be patient?"
Liu San whispered, "Twittering like a little sparrow."
Xiao Le bared his teeth at him.
But it also quieted down. After another hour, several people changed from squatting to sitting, and Er Zhuzi even fell asleep. Fortunately, he didn't snore.
"coming!"
Xiao Aimin took a breath, Er Zhuzi was pushed awake, and the group of people stared intently at the moving grass.
Not long after, two chubby gray rabbits jumped out, one jumped directly onto the vegetable nest, just fell into the trap, and fell straight down, the remaining one was frightened and was about to run away, but was used by Xiao Le The slingshot hit the head, and when he fell to the ground and screamed, Xiao Aimin jumped out and held down the struggling rabbit.
Liu San pulled the grass and vines and tied the rabbit neatly.
And Erzhu swung the rabbit out of the trap, Xiao Le handed over the grass and vines, and after a while, the two rabbits were tied up.
"Clever," Er Zhu praised Xiao Le's reaction just now, if he hadn't played it, the rabbit would have run away.
"Hey," Xiao Le raised his chin proudly. Although Liu San didn't say anything, his complexion got better.
After all, there is no delay.
Next, they found some fungus and wild fungus, all of them were farm kids, they knew what they could eat and what they couldn't.
The harvest in the morning was the two rabbits and some wild boar. In the afternoon, they seemed to have better luck, because they found traces of a small wild boar arching the ground. This small boar is also called arching pig, which is also a kind of wild boar.
It is not big in size, and an adult boar only weighs seventy or eighty kilograms. It likes to play with the soil everywhere, and also likes to sleep by itself in a hole under a tree or a stone.
They find the freshest droppings and start squatting.
It was almost dark, and the little boar had not come back.
"Why don't we go home."
Er Zhu yawned.
It's also quite hot today. Although they are in the mountains, there are a lot of mosquitoes, all of them are covered in mud, and they touched a lot of thorny grasses and trees. They can't wait to go home and take a comfortable cold bath.
"listen."
Xiao Le hissed and asked them to listen carefully, and sure enough, he heard the sound of the little boar grunting directly in front of him.
Everyone cheered up, and each of them took out a scimitar and held it in their hands.
This thing has rough skin and thick flesh, and a slingshot alone is not enough.
"Brother Aimin, throw it on time, and don't fall on us."
Erzhu whispered to Xiao Aimin on the tree.
Xiao Aimin made a gesture to express his understanding.
He stood tall and had a good field of vision, so he soon saw the little mountain boar weighing forty or fifty pounds. When the other party reached the distance they predicted, Xiao Aimin immediately threw the machete over, and followed his hand, The other three also threw it out quickly and accurately!
"Why hasn't this child come back?"
The food is ready, and Xiao's mother, who doesn't see Xiao Leren, is a little worried.
"I'll go out and see."
Father Xiao was also worried, and came back quickly after leaving, "Xiao Le and the others beat up a little boar! It's at Erzhu's house to clean up now!"
"Oh, you're so lucky? You're not injured, are you?"
Jiang Xiuying asked.
"Probably not. I met a few kids who were watching the excitement and heard what they said. I'll go and have a look!"
After finishing all this, he continued to work in a godly manner, his heart was bubbling with beauty, and when he finished his morning work, he ran home with a small basket on his back.
Today he is working in this field alone, while Jiang Xiuying and the others are tidying up the vegetable field behind the yard.
When he got home, Jiang Xiuying and the others just came back and were washing their hands there. Xiao's mother also asked whether it would be better to eat pickled vegetables for lunch or to have some cold vegetables.
"Eat meat!"
Xiao Le walked into the yard with great arrogance, then knocked the door of the yard, put down the basket, and reached into the pile of pig grass to take out the dark pot.
When Jiang Xiuying and the three of them saw it, they immediately showed surprise. Xiao's mother took it carefully. Xiao's father had already fetched clean water, and Xiao's mother put the jar in the water to wash the plaster.
"Here's a cork."
After washing it, they found that there was a wooden stopper on the entrance of the jar, which had blocked the jar tightly, and the water did not go in.
"I'm going to get the scissors. They have pointed ends. It's easy to do this," Jiang Xiuying said while getting up, and brought a pair of big black scissors after a while.
Mama Xiao fiddled with the scissors for a while before the cork was removed. Several people came over to take a look, with doubts on their faces.
Xiao Le narrowed his eyes and looked at the dark, thick long thing, "What is this?"
"His father, bring the tongs here."
Xiao's mother was afraid that it would be broken, so she asked Xiao's father to get the tongs, and carefully squeezed out those dark things.
It looked a little mysterious in the jar, but when you took it out and put it in a bright place, the faces of the few people became weird.

Xiao Le: ...
Jiang Xiuying: ...
Mama Xiao yelled, glanced at the tongs in her hand, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I didn't hold it with my hands!"
The rake had been in there for some days, and it was dry, hard and black.
"My grass!"
Xiao Le is so angry.
Jiang Xiuying suppressed a smile, but was very curious, "Who is so bored to put this thing in and block it with a cork?"
All this effort, just for fun?
Mother Xiao clicked her tongue and said very calmly, "Don't worry, I'll take a look."
As she said that, she asked Papa Xiao to bring a hammer, and lightly hammered the jar open.

Xiao Le looked at Jiang Xiuying, "Sister-in-law, are you going?"
"No," Jiang Xiuying shook her head, thinking of what Liu Yanyan said in front of Xiao Le before, she didn't like it, "Are you going?"
"I want to watch the excitement," Xiao Le chuckled, "I've understood since I was fooled once, she's fooling me, I treat her as my sister, she treats me as a fool, I'm not stupid !"
Jiang Xiuying chuckled, "Then you go, I will guard the house."
"Come on," Xiao Le immediately got up and walked out, "I'll tell you what happened when I come back!"
He ran fast, and it didn't take long to catch up with Xiao Aimin and the others, and they entered the gate of their house together.
At this time, the oil lamp was lit in the main room, and Aunt Xiao was sitting on the bench crying uncontrollably. Uncle Xiao next to her persuaded and persuaded, but she couldn't stop. Looking at Liu Yanyan, there was a red palm mark on her face, sitting in the corner Li, also crying convulsively.
"Oh sister, what's going on!"
Xiao's mother hurriedly pulled Aunt Xiao out of the yard and sat down, "Let's take care of things slowly, your eyes are not good, if you cry again, do you still want your eyes?"
Xiao Aimin nodded immediately upon hearing this, "Yes, Mom, don't cry, I won't go out, don't worry."
"I don't worry? Why should I worry? That person doesn't want us to have a good life!"
Xiao Le understood after listening for a while.
It was when the young couple were cooking in the kitchen, Liu Yanyan mentioned the matter of going out to work, and Aunt Xiao brought the washed dishes into the kitchen, just in time to hear this.
"Why buy a big house and live in a city in the future! What kind of heart does she have? She wants to get rid of our old couple!"
Aunt Xiao was very angry. If her son told her that, she would go outside to find a job, buy a house and bring them to the city to live a good life, she would be happy in her heart.
But when the daughter-in-law said that, she couldn't be bothered. Coupled with what happened these days, Aunt Xiao thought that Liu Yanyan wanted to send the eldest son to the city. Like the younger son, she would only come back during the Chinese New Year glance.
Then what happened to the old couple at home, no one found out.
"This heart is too vicious!"
Aunt Xiao pointed at the main room and cursed.
Uncle Xiao has been smoking dry cigarettes since Xiao Le and the others came, and did not speak. Liu Yanyan's crying became smaller and smaller, and in the end they only heard a little sobbing. Xiao Aimin repeatedly promised to Uncle Xiao that he would not go out. He and Dad Xiao also persuaded, which made Aunt Xiao feel more comfortable.
When the three of Xiao Le returned home, they were already out of sight. Xiao Aimin lit a small torch for them. Xiao Le was tall, and he walked at the end, so the two people in front could see him holding the torch.
When she got home, Jiang Xiuying had just finished taking a shower. After listening to Xiao Le's report, Jiang Xiuying was very puzzled, "It's not like this."
Mama Xiao clicked her tongue and said in a low voice, "When I was leaving, your uncle said that Liu Yanyan had lent 20 yuan to her natal family this afternoon. She said it was a loan, but she actually took it back. There is not much money in it, so I borrowed 20 yuan without blinking an eye, but I still can't get it back, don't you feel angry?"
In addition to the words heard in the evening, Aunt Xiao's dissatisfaction these days was immediately aroused, and she slapped Liu Yanyan in a hurry, and finally cried herself out of anger.
"Does Brother Aimin know about borrowing money?"
Xiao Le asked.
"I just don't know, Liu Yanyan borrowed the money on her own initiative," which made Aunt Xiao angry.
"Brother is also very angry," Papa Xiao sighed. "When we went, his face was very ugly. When we left, his face was not much better. It can be seen that he is still angry."
Jiang Xiuying frowned, thinking of what Xiao Weiguo said before she came back, Liu Yanyan is a troublemaker, so remember not to let the other party have anything to do with Xiao Le.
So she looked at Xiao Le, and before she could speak, Xiao Le saw what she meant, thinking that Xiao's mother was the one who was at fault, and the two of them looked over together.
Xiao Le shrank his neck, "I won't be so stupid anymore."
"You dare!"
Mama Xiao said this almost through gritted teeth.
Early the next morning, when they were having breakfast, Third Aunt Xiao came to the door and brought them half a basket of eggplants, "Our family's eggplants have grown well this year, so I'll send you some. Big brother and they have them too."
After putting away their eggplants, Third Aunt Xiao asked about the quarrel at Uncle Xiao's house last night, "We don't know, but the third uncle next door said that he passed by the door of eldest brother's house last night and heard the noise. This is what I said when I came to drop by at night."
At that time, they wanted to go and have a look, but the daughter had a low fever, so they didn't come.
When I saw Liu Yanyan, I immediately responded.
Xiao's mother regained her spirits and talked to her while eating. After sitting for a while, Aunt Xiao went to Uncle Xiao's house with the remaining half basket of eggplants.
About an hour and a half later, the other party came back, "That Liu Yanyan was sent back to her mother's house by Aimin, and the sister-in-law said that there must be a method for borrowing the money, and IOUs should be issued, don't be empty-handed."
"That's the reason," Xiao's mother nodded repeatedly. She was washing soybeans, and there were two liters of soybeans left at home. Xiao Le happened to want to eat bean curd, so he soaked it last night, and now he washed it and grinded it.
Aunt Xiao San still had something to do at home, so she didn't enter the door this time, and left after saying a few words.
"The tofu curd will be ready later, you send a big bowl to third uncle and uncle."
Mama Xiao said to Xiao Le who was cleaning the cage next to her.
"Eh."
Xiao Le agreed.
When he finished delivering the hot bean curd to Uncle Xiao's house and then went to Uncle Xiao's house, Xiao Aimin had already returned, but Liu Yanyan was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey, why are you bringing so many here?"
Aunt Xiao seemed to be in a good mood, she saw Xiao Le came over with a big bowl of bean curd and shouted.
"It's hot today, and it will spoil if you eat it the next day," Xiao Le smiled, and greeted Xiao Aimin again.
Xiao Aimin's eyes were black and blue, and he nodded not so energetically. When Aunt Xiao gave the empty bowl to Xiao Le, Xiao Aimin said, "I haven't had much work in the past two days. Do you want to go to the mountains?" shopping?"
"Looking for mountain goods?"
Xiao Le asked.
"When I came back, I ran into Erzhu. He said that he saw a hare in the mountains not long ago. It was very fat. Now that he has free time, he can go up the mountain to try his luck. If wild things can't be caught, even wild ones will do."
"When are you going?"
"Just tomorrow morning."
"Success, count me in."
Xiao Le agreed.
Knowing that Xiao Leming'er was going to the back mountain, Xiao's mother and the others didn't say anything, and there were no entertainment programs these days, especially the unmarried young people, who had too much time to spare.
"I want to go too," Jiang Xiuying said, "but my feet are so slow that I can't keep up with you."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Le took a big mouthful of fresh and delicious bean curd, "The next time my brother is on vacation, let's go to the mountains to play."
"I am coming too!"
Papa Xiao interjected.
"Mom going?"
"No, I'll prepare meals for you at home, and you can eat hot food when you come back," Xiao's mother said with a smile.
Early the next morning, Xiao Le was wearing long trousers and a long coat, carrying a small pannier, and a machete on his waist. After reconciling with Xiao Aimin, he went to find Erzhu.
Erzhu's home is in Houcun, so they can go into the mountains together in the past.
"Do you have a slingshot?"
Xiao Aimin asked.
"Of course I took it," Xiao Le chuckled, "It's also good to hit a bird."
Xiao Aimin also laughed when he heard the words, and the depression in his heart finally dissipated a lot. Yesterday, because the father-in-law issued an IOU, Liu Yanyan felt that she had lost face, so she didn't follow her back. Comfortable.
This reason, which is not a reason, made Xiao Aimin admit it.
What happened in the past two days made him feel that Liu Yanyan was very strange, and he didn't seem to know her at all.
"Brother Aimin?"
Xiao Le was talking to him when he saw the other party in a daze.
"Ah? What did you say?"
"I said, did you bring any dry food? What's the matter with us going into the mountain today, we will only come back in the evening."
Xiao Le pointed to his pannier, which also contained a pair of slingshots, but nothing else.
He has cornbread in his back basket.
"...I really forgot."
He got up, washed his face, and went out. Not only did he not bring dry food, he hadn't had breakfast yet.
"I brought a lot, let's eat together."
Xiao Le said in relief.
Xiao Aimin gave Xiao Le a shoulder, "Good brother."
When reconciling with Er Zhu, Xiao Le discovered that there was Liu San, who in the eyes of the villagers, Liu San was the worst kind of person, and the original body was better than the other party.
How do you count it as a mess?
Anyway, his hands and feet are not clean, he is lazy and not only a problem, but also a mess.
Liu San was not surprised by Xiao Le, he stared at Xiao Le with a dog's tail grass in his mouth, "You have small arms and legs, you are still a small baby, why did you come with your brother."
"You're just a baby!"
Xiao Le was very angry, and raised his arms to show his strength, "See? I have muscles!"
Liu San clicked his tongue, spat out the dog's tail grass, and raised his arm, and the bulging muscles defeated Xiao Le at once.
"My God, how did you practice?"
Xiao Le jumped over and pinched vigorously.
Liu San frowned slightly, "You still say that you are not a baby? Does it hurt?"
"Then you pinch it back?"
Xiao Le stretched out his hand, and Xiao Aimin hurried forward to hold him, "Oh, Liu San was joking with you."
"Aimin, you're too used to him. I haven't said anything yet, but you can't protect him enough." Although Liu San said so, he didn't ask Xiao Le to settle the score, which caused Xiao Le to feel a little guilty.
If you want to say why the original owner and Liu San didn't deal with each other, it's probably because every time Liu San met the original owner, he would taunt and ridicule him, which made the original owner feel uncomfortable.
It takes more than an hour to go up the mountain, and it still reaches the outer edge of the mountain, which is the place where everyone chops firewood and walks a long way. If you go inside for more than half an hour, there will be fewer traces of people walking.
"I saw several rabbits at the big green tree last time," Erzhu said with a greedy face, "It's a pity that I didn't have anything at that time, otherwise I really don't want to miss it."
"Rabbits don't eat grass by the side of their nests, so they must have moved," Xiao Aimin often went into the mountains and mentioned a few approximate locations. They searched one by one, and sure enough, they found a fresh rabbit rake somewhere.
Xiao Le became tense immediately, and they squatted in the grass at half a person's height for half an hour.
In the trap not far away, there is a vegetable cornbread donated by Xiao Le, just waiting for the rabbit to take the bait.
"Is this really going to work?"
Xiao Le, who was bitten several times by mosquitoes, couldn't help but said.
"Boy, can you be patient?"
Liu San whispered, "Twittering like a little sparrow."
Xiao Le bared his teeth at him.
But it also quieted down. After another hour, several people changed from squatting to sitting, and Er Zhuzi even fell asleep. Fortunately, he didn't snore.
"coming!"
Xiao Aimin took a breath, Er Zhuzi was pushed awake, and the group of people stared intently at the moving grass.
Not long after, two chubby gray rabbits jumped out, one jumped directly onto the vegetable nest, just fell into the trap, and fell straight down, the remaining one was frightened and was about to run away, but was used by Xiao Le The slingshot hit the head, and when he fell to the ground and screamed, Xiao Aimin jumped out and held down the struggling rabbit.
Liu San pulled the grass and vines and tied the rabbit neatly.
And Erzhu swung the rabbit out of the trap, Xiao Le handed over the grass and vines, and after a while, the two rabbits were tied up.
"Clever," Er Zhu praised Xiao Le's reaction just now, if he hadn't played it, the rabbit would have run away.
"Hey," Xiao Le raised his chin proudly. Although Liu San didn't say anything, his complexion got better.
After all, there is no delay.
Next, they found some fungus and wild fungus, all of them were farm kids, they knew what they could eat and what they couldn't.
The harvest in the morning was the two rabbits and some wild boar. In the afternoon, they seemed to have better luck, because they found traces of a small wild boar arching the ground. This small boar is also called arching pig, which is also a kind of wild boar.
It is not big in size, and an adult boar only weighs seventy or eighty kilograms. It likes to play with the soil everywhere, and also likes to sleep by itself in a hole under a tree or a stone.
They find the freshest droppings and start squatting.
It was almost dark, and the little boar had not come back.
"Why don't we go home."
Er Zhu yawned.
It's also quite hot today. Although they are in the mountains, there are a lot of mosquitoes, all of them are covered in mud, and they touched a lot of thorny grasses and trees. They can't wait to go home and take a comfortable cold bath.
"listen."
Xiao Le hissed and asked them to listen carefully, and sure enough, he heard the sound of the little boar grunting directly in front of him.
Everyone cheered up, and each of them took out a scimitar and held it in their hands.
This thing has rough skin and thick flesh, and a slingshot alone is not enough.
"Brother Aimin, throw it on time, and don't fall on us."
Erzhu whispered to Xiao Aimin on the tree.
Xiao Aimin made a gesture to express his understanding.
He stood tall and had a good field of vision, so he soon saw the little mountain boar weighing forty or fifty pounds. When the other party reached the distance they predicted, Xiao Aimin immediately threw the machete over, and followed his hand, The other three also threw it out quickly and accurately!
"Why hasn't this child come back?"
The food is ready, and Xiao's mother, who doesn't see Xiao Leren, is a little worried.
"I'll go out and see."
Father Xiao was also worried, and came back quickly after leaving, "Xiao Le and the others beat up a little boar! It's at Erzhu's house to clean up now!"
"Oh, you're so lucky? You're not injured, are you?"
Jiang Xiuying asked.
"Probably not. I met a few kids who were watching the excitement and heard what they said. I'll go and have a look!"
