Chapter 108: The Secret of the Third Brother [Supplement 8 Update]

Although Qiao Qiuyue did not do well in the exam and was a little depressed for a while, she quickly adjusted and pulled Qiao Jiayue to dig white grass roots in the field.

Qiao Jiayue didn't want to move, the weather was cold, she went to the mountains to blow a cold wind, and she caught a cold accidentally, so she didn't want to have two yellow dragons hanging under her nose like other children.

Qiao Qiuyue couldn't resist Qiao Jiayue, so she had to accompany her to the canteen of the fourth team to help light the fire or do other things to earn work.

Now the effect of the egg feed has been very obvious, the weather is cold, and the hens of the four teams are still laying eggs, one a day, very regular.

And the hen does not become skinny because it lays too many eggs, but has smooth fur and grows stronger.

And those ducks, under Qiao Liu'an's care, are the same every day, but Qiao Jiayue doesn't like to see them anymore, not to mention that they are cute when they were young, and they have become dirty and smelly.

Ducks love to play in water, but there is no pond, so Qiao Liuan had to make a basin, fill it with water and put it in, and they often flutter around the basin.

No, the floor was soggy, and with their excrement, it smelled like nothing to describe.

And the eight pigs are now older and have a greater appetite, and their humming can be heard from afar.

Qiao Jiayue also doesn't like the past, for the same reason as a duck. But she is still happy to help Qiao Lu'an do things, change it, it's all meat!

Students don't earn much for adults, but it adds up to a lot.

It's Qiao Jiayue, and now she has saved a lot.

Since the sweet potato leaves in the field can be eaten, the rations in the canteen are often mixed with sweet potato leaves and wild vegetables, Qiao Jiayue also wants to vomit when she eats, but fortunately, she can still open a small stove at home, so that the stomach and intestines are not seriously rebellious.

However, Gao Yulian has recently picked a lot of bitter sword vegetables, which are more bitter and many people don't like them, so she will make some to spice up the taste.

When Qiao Jiayue and the others arrived, there were already two children cutting sweet potato vines at the door of the canteen, which were to be stored for the pigs to eat in winter and spring, but it was a big project.

Some of the chopped sweet potato vine leaves will be dried, and some will be stuffed in a tank, and then these will be the pig's rations.

In the past, when the famine was at its worst, people also ate it, and the taste was really indescribable.

Two of the kitchen knives used to cut sweet potato leaves have been processed into a guillotine type, which is fast, good, and easy to cut.

Qiao Jiayue and Qiao Qiuyue came late and failed to use the guillotine.

After receiving a certain amount of work, they could only hold kitchen knives and wave them, and for a while, the sound of "dong dong dong" rang non-stop.

It's tiring to work, especially when you maintain a posture where your waist and legs don't feel like you're your own.

Qiao Jiayue listened to Qiao Qiuyue say that she found a few big ants and cut off a few insects, and couldn't help frowning, children in the countryside, these contents are indeed one of the fun.

But she didn't like it, and she got distracted when she listened.

The cloud on Qiao Qiuyue's head, compared with the last time, seems to have become a little rounder, anyway, Qiao Jiayue can't describe the shape, she has been paying more attention to the cloud spell recently, and she hasn't analyzed one, two, or three.

At this time, Qiao Hongzhi and Qiao Hongliang used their self-made cart to drag a large pile of sweet potato leaves back.

Qiao Jiayue's gaze fell on Qiao Hongliang's head, and the cloud turned red, and the shape became a slightly pointed flat circle, a bit like a flying shuttle.

Looking at Qiao Hongzhi again, there is a gray cloud on his head, but the shape is more strange, high, and some strange shapes protrude from the left and right.

Compared with curses, Qiao Jiayue actually values cloud curses more, after all, this is a skill she has been using since she got the system.

She always felt that the cloud spell should be higher than the two skills of curse and blessing, and now, the change of the cloud spell confirmed her guess.

"Today's mission is accomplished. Qiao Hongzhi wiped the sweat on his head and grinned at Qiao Jiayue, "Yue'er, go home." ”

Qiao Hongliang pursed his lips, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, obviously he was very happy, "Yue'er, go home." ”

Qiao Qiuyue glanced at Qiao Jiayue enviously, "You go back first, I'll go to my brothers." ”

With Qiao Jiayue as a comparison, Qiao Qiuyue suddenly felt that her brothers were so stupid! She must work hard to urge them to keep up with Qiao Jiayue's brothers, so that she can protect herself in the future.

"Third brother. Qiao Jiayue took Qiao Hongliang's hand, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Did you encounter anything good today?"

Qiao Hongliang nodded, the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little bigger, "Yes, I'll go back and show you." ”

Qiao Jiayue was a little strange, what could make the third brother so happy?

She looked at the clouds above him, wondering if it was her delusion, which seemed to be moving?

The brother and sister returned home and began to boil water, and after a busy day, they all had to wash, no matter how bad the conditions were, they couldn't be sloppy.

Qiao Hongzhi, as the eldest brother, is obliged to take over the matter of boiling water.

Qiao Hongliang pulled Qiao Jiayue into the house and pulled out a box from under the bed, "Yue'er, look." ”

Qiao Jiayue glanced at it, it was a scroll and a wooden box, "What is this?"

Qiao Hongliang opened the painting, "Yue'er, look, it's so beautiful!"

This is an ink painting, on a moonlit night, in a thatched house, a person in the courtyard drinking alone to the moon.

Qiao Jiayue looked at Qiao Hongliang apologetically, "Third brother, I'm sorry, I don't understand." She thought, she probably won't be able to learn this in her life.

Qiao Hongliang was not disappointed when he heard this, and explained to Qiao Jiayue very seriously, "This is what I picked up, this painting must be an ancient painting, I feel the loneliness and sadness of the painter, but in these emotions, there is also an implied expectation for the future." ”

"This box is paint, you see. ”

The box is very old, with traces of insects, knife marks, fire burns, etc., and inside the box, there are old paper bags, which are toners.

Qiao Jiayue is a person with experience, and she knows that it is impossible for these things to appear in such a remote place.

"Where did the third brother find it?" Qiao Jiayue felt a little uneasy in her heart, "Did any outsiders come to our village today?"

"At the stream, I thought it was going to be thrown away, so I picked it up. Qiao Hongliang didn't hide it from Qiao Jiayue, "No one found out." ”

Qiao Jiayue thought for a while, "Third brother, if you can trust me, let me keep it, if you want to use it in the future, I'll give it to you?"

Qiao Hongliang was keenly aware of Qiao Jiayue's worries, "Okay, Yue'er keeps it." ”

"Third brother, this is our secret, don't tell anyone else, okay?"

Qiao Hongliang didn't speak, just stretched out his little finger, and the brother and sister made an agreement.

Subsequently, Qiao Jiayue carefully talked to Qiao Hongzhi and made sure that no outsiders had ever come to the village, so who discarded these things?

Qiao Jiayue felt that something must have happened that she didn't know.
