Chapter 72: Sister, You're Getting More and More Eaten
In summer and autumn, walking alone on the field path, the breeze blows, and there is a slight coolness.
However, in more than half a month, the rice fields on both sides, the seedlings are already patches of green, with the breeze one after another.
When she got home, it was just after half past six.
On the roof of the kitchen, smoke curled up, and I thought that Li Cuifen had already gotten up to make breakfast.
She put down the bamboo cage and entered the house.
At this time, Li Cuifen was in front of the big stove, stirring the rice that had just been put into the water with a spatula.
In the cauldron, the water that was more than two-thirds high was off-white, snow-white and snow-white like milk.
"Mom. ”
Xia Qiu called out to her in a low voice, followed by her, and held her hand affectionately.
Li Cuifen saw her coming back, looked out of the door, and seeing that there was no one, she asked in a low voice, "Have you sold all the ducks?"
"Well, it's all sold to Uncle Zhou, I originally wanted to send it to sell it at the door of their store, but Aunt Li said that she wanted it all, roughly calculated, 390 yuan, and I will go to get the money at noon. ”
"Really? That's great. ”
Li Cuifen's heart hung for a night and a morning, and finally fell.
"Your Uncle Zhou and Aunt Li are all good people, and you have to repay them in the future. ”
"Well, I know. ”
Xia Qiu responded in a low voice.
Li Cuifen nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said suspiciously: "You kid, you have a lot of ghost ideas, I was afraid that your grandfather would find something last night, and I didn't dare to go out to see, and I don't know how you hid on the roof, early this morning, you drove the ducks out, and I didn't hear the ducks' calls." ”
A flock of ducks, if you want to drive them away, the ducks will definitely quack.
But whether it was hiding the duck in summer and autumn, or this morning, she quietly took the duck away, and she didn't hear a sound.
It's weird!
Xia Qiu's eyes crossed a trace of emptiness, she lowered her eyes, opened her eyes and said nonsense, and said: "Mom, I was very careful to carry the two cages of ducks, and the ducks were also sleeping, I was light and did not alarm the ducks." ”
There seems to be no more plausible explanation than this one.
Li Cuifen always felt strange when she heard it, but it seemed that it could only be this possibility.
"Then you are powerful enough, more than ten ducks, two bamboo cages, not light. ”
Xia Qiu was sly and proud, raised his lips and chuckled, and said, "Mom, I'm a little expert at work, what is that weight?"
"Yes, you kid is the most capable. ”
Li Cuifen sighed, "It's okay if the duck is sold, but your grandfather is always worried about it, and from time to time he catches a duck, and he takes it and sells it." ”
She patted Xia Qiu's hand and whispered: "You keep the money, hide it, don't let your grandfather, second uncle and third uncle find it." ”
For this daughter, she is now completely relieved.
Even if she has a 'huge amount of money' in Xia Qiu's hands now, she is not worried that Xia Qiu will spend it indiscriminately.
"Well, I must have hid it. ”
Xia Qiu readily agreed, and did not postpone it.
After all, who can find the money if it is all hidden in space?
"Congratulations to the owner, I made a sum of money for the family, improved the life of the family, and rewarded 100 drops. ”
Hachi appeared out of thin air, with a smiling face, full of flattery.
Xia Qiu was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Be good, I'll make you something to eat when I'm free." ”
"Really?"
Xiao Hachi's eyes lit up, and he said eagerly: "Then you have to hurry up, I want to eat the delicious food made by the gold lord as quickly as possible." ”
"Don't rush, take your time. ”
Xia Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly and replied slowly.
She let go of Li Cuifen and added fire to the big stove.
While being so busy, Xia Xue and Xia Yu also got up.
After getting up, the two girls didn't care about brushing their teeth and washing their faces, so they hurriedly came to ask Xia Qiu about the situation of the duck.
Xia Qiu quietly told them the results, and they were relieved.
"Hmph, in the future, our chickens and ducks will be sold by ourselves, and they will never be given to them to eat, they will sell. ”
Xia Xue snorted softly, even after one night, she was still resentful.
"Okay, the meal is almost ready, you can eat oil and salt rice today, and go to school early after eating. ”
Li Cuifen scooped up a bowl of rice, scooped up some lard with a spoon, put some salt, stirred it three times with chopsticks, and a big bowl of oil and salt rice was ready.
Xia Qiu went to wash the dishes, filled a bowl by himself, and was in front of the big stove, eating delicious oil and salt rice while burning the fire.
"Master Jin, I also want to taste the oil and salt rice. ”
Xiao Hachi seemed to smell the fragrance of oil, salt and rice, and his saliva flowed.
Xia Qiu couldn't bear it when she saw it, so she got up and left the kitchen and went to the room.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, she hurriedly gave the oil and salt rice to Xiaoba.
Originally, he only planned to give it half of it, but Xiaoba directly poured a whole bowl of oil and salt rice into its bowl.
"Master Jin, you can go back and fill another bowl. ”
Xiaoba held a whole bowl of oil and salt rice in his arms, smiling softly and cutely.
"Gluttonous pigs. ”
Xia Qiu didn't dare to stay longer, so he walked out of the space with a bowl that was already empty and there was not a single grain of rice left.
She went back to the kitchen and filled another bowl.
"Xia Qiu, are you done eating?"
Li Cuifen was scooping up rice and steaming rice, and when she saw the empty bowl in Xia Qiu's hand, she asked casually.
Xia Qiu's footsteps paused, and he said, "Eh...... yes, I still want to eat a bowl. ”
"Sister, I just saw you eat just now, why did you finish eating so quickly?"
Xia Xue came into the house and looked at Xia Qiu suspiciously.
"Sister, I found that you are becoming more and more able to eat now, and if you eat carefully and become a big fat man, it will be so ugly. ”
“......”
Summer and autumn are messy in the wind!
"What nonsense? When you're all growing up, you have to eat as much as you can. ”
Li Cuifen grabbed the bowl in Xia Qiu's hand and filled her with a bowl full of oil and salt rice.
"Xia Qiu, don't listen to Xia Xue's nonsense, I have to go to school today, but I can't be hungry. ”
In the heart of summer and autumn, a trace of warmth flowed.
It's just that it's misunderstood that it's too edible, and it seems to be really unladylike!
Hachi, it's all Hachi's gluttonous pig!
"Master Jin, the oil and salt rice is so delicious, I still want to eat a bowl. ”
The heartless little eight, there is still a grain of rice coming out of the corner of his mouth.
"Nope. ”
Xia Qiu's ruthless refusal.
After breakfast, Xia Xue and Xia Yu went to school together.
Xia Qiu packed her things and was just about to go out, when she saw Xia Qiu coming over wearing a blue shirt and black pants.
"Xia Qiu, let's go, let's go to school. ”
Xia Wei carried her schoolbag, walked forward happily, hugged Xia Qiu's hand, and did not forget to say hello to Li Cuifen.
Li Cuifen walked to the door, saw Xia Qiu and Xia Wei holding hands affectionately, and smiled with satisfaction.
"Xia Wei, you are also Nanwan No. 1 Middle School, right?"
"Yes, Aunt Li, Xia Qiu and I not only went to school in Nanwan No. 1 Middle School, but we were also assigned to the same class. ”
Xia Wei smiled, well-behaved and gentle.
"Yes, it's great that you two are so good and so fateful, you have to take care of Xia Qiu a lot in the future. ”
Li Cuifen's voice was soft, and she smiled a little more.
Xia Wei smiled embarrassedly and said, "Aunt Li, in fact, at school, Xia Qiu has always taken care of me more, if it weren't for Xia Qiu always urging me to study, I might not have been able to get into Nanwan No. 1 Middle School." ”
"That's what you worked hard for, in the future, you will study hard in Nanwan No. 1 Middle School, and strive to get a good university in the future, get ahead, and win glory for your family. ”
Li Cuifen's words were just finished, but she heard a 'bang' sound from Xia Dajin's house next door, which was the sound of the door being slammed shut.
Li Cuifen and Xia Qiu's faces changed.
"It's not early, you guys hurry to school, don't be late for the first day of school. ”
Li Cuifen laughed dryly, waved her hand, and motioned for them to leave quickly.
Xia Qiu and Xia Wei said goodbye to her and walked intimately holding hands.
As soon as he walked a few steps, he bumped into Xia Shixun, who had a calm face and came back from outside.
