085 down-and-out copper hammer home
The evening breeze blew down the leaves of the poplar trees on the side of the road and fell to the ground. The wind blows cool on the face, and the morning and evening of autumn are especially cool.
Xu Lang stole a glance at Lin Xiao, "Why don't you get a hat and put it on?" ”
"Don't." Lin Xiao refused without thinking about it, "I'm like this, what?" Do you think I'm ashamed? ”
Xu Lang resisted the urge to laugh weirdly and explained: "It's not that you are ashamed, but I am afraid that it will scare people in the dark for a while." He swore that he was telling the truth.
Seeing that it's going to be dark, girl, are you sure it's okay with a green face?
Lin Xiao snorted with his nose and walked away with leisurely steps.
She has a slender figure, and her body has just developed with a bit of slenderness, which is pleasing to the eye when viewed from behind.
Hopefully there won't be those eyes that don't open their eyes to look at her face.
Xu Lang shook his head and hurriedly followed.
Xiao Bu and Shen Rourou led the way in front, and Shen Rourou secretly asked the bear child, "Sister Xiaoxiao is going to be your mother?" ”
Lin Xiao was stunned when he heard this in the back, and he fell down.
Children under the age of ten, should they be so precocious?
If you are a little smaller, Lin Xiao will fall even more.
"No, she's too small."
Subconsciously looking at his chest, Lin Xiao rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Nima, my God, even if you can't give a D, you can give a B, what's the deal with this kind of flat land like a racetrack?
was actually disgusted by his apprentice!
Lin Xiao's gaze was full of grievances.
Child, you are so precocious, do you know your future daughter-in-law?
Lin Xiao thought angrily: Don't you think you are small, in the future, your daughter-in-law E, F, and G. Suffocate you!
Otherwise, the more people care about something, the easier it is to think crookedly. Lin Xiao's thinking is obviously off-track.
Zhao Tonghammer's house is on the west bank of the river, and in fact, Black Bear Ridge is divided into three small pieces because of a river. It's not too far and not too close to each other, and it takes about four or five minutes to walk.
On weekdays, the big guys move according to their own small pieces, and few people run around.
Xu Lang and they live in Hedong, which is very large, and there are more wealthy households. There are a little more people on the Hexi side, with more than a dozen families, and they are generally poor. Qiantun is far from the river. There are few families living in the village, and it is the only place in the village where a large family lives, and there is little contact with the people in the village on weekdays.
Black Bear Ridge is a small village. Xu Lang and they have a lot of people who haven't finished their farm work along the way, and those who know can still say a few words. Now Xu Lang and Lin Xiao have gradually integrated into Black Bear Ridge.
There is a large road between the east and west of the river, and it is said that a bridge was built by a landowner a long time ago. The four of them didn't travel long before they arrived in Hexi, and Shen Rourou took them to Zhao Tongzhu's house by herself.
In the distance, I saw a dilapidated adobe house standing not far from the river. Lonely without even a neighbor. The surrounding walls were simply enclosed with wooden fences. Many places have been broken by something, and they are becoming more and more dilapidated.
In the courtyard, a skinny middle-aged man was sitting on the ground and was tinkering with something, and when he saw that they and his group found out, he knew Shen Rourou. "What's wrong with Yau Yau?" The man didn't seem to be in good health, and he gasped twice after saying a sentence, looking a little tired.
Xu Lang is a doctor with excellent medical skills, and he can see at a glance that this man is malnourished and has some loss of qi and blood.
Lin Xiao paid attention to other things, she spent most of her previous life in the army. At a glance, I could see that the faint blood on this man's body looked like a person who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood.
Look at this man...... Is it a retired soldier?
"Uncle Zhao. This is my tenant, who came to find your copper hammer. Shen Rou opened her mouth softly and neatly, and her voice was crisp and vivid.
"Looking for a copper hammer?" Zhao Shuzi looked guarded, "What's wrong?" What happened to my copper hammer outside? "He was crippled, and when he came back from the army, he spent all the few pensions, and his daughter-in-law left them and ran away. Now that the family is all supported by his son, knowing that the kid has a bad temper, is it really troublesome? He was a little anxious, now that this family is poor and white, he can't afford to toss.
Lin Xiao saw the man's vigilance, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, yes, that's the case, we bought two pheasants from your copper hammer in the morning, and this is to send silver." For this man who may have been on the battlefield, she faintly felt some sympathy.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, "The copper hammer told me, but two pheasants, what kind of silver do you give?" Zhao Shuzi got up habitually, one leg just stood up, but the other leg did not obey the call to soften, there was a flash of frustration on his face, and he hurriedly covered up a smile: "Don't stand outside, come in." ”
Lin Xiao and his entourage entered the courtyard, and when they saw that the yard was cleaned up quite neatly, they also nodded secretly.
"I don't have a stool at home...... Zhao Shuzi stopped talking, a little embarrassed.
Xu Lang hurriedly handed over a piece of silver, "If it's not in the way, we will send the silver." ”
Zhao Zhuzi didn't want to accept it, but when he thought of the empty rice cylinder, he took those copper plates at Xu Lang's insistence. "This, it's too much, two chickens, it's not worth it." As he spoke, he wanted to send some back.
"What about the two pheasants, Brother Zhao is not too little." With such a poor family, Lin Xiao naturally didn't care about it, but felt that he gave too little.
"Dad, I came back with five catties of rice, and I can eat it for a few days." The young man's voice was light, and he was stunned when he saw the people in the yard. "Why are you here?" The young man had a straight face, obviously guarded.
"Copper hammer, don't be so unruly." Zhao Shuzi shouted with a bluffed face, and said: "People gave the silver to the two pheasants, give, this is a penny of silver." ”
Zhao Tongzhu relaxed when he heard this, but he refused to admit his mistake, "Did you really send it?" He seemed a little incredulous, took the copper coin and looked at it, "So much? He took two rabbits and a pheasant in exchange for five catties of sorghum rice, so many copper plates are enough to buy more than a dozen catties of sorghum rice.
Zhao Shuzi was also a little embarrassed, "I also said too much, and they refused to take it back." "On weekdays, my son hunted a lot of prey, and he exchanged food with the villagers, but there were not so many.
Xu Lang said a few more polite words, although the father and son of the Zhao family also spoke, they were obviously not enthusiastic enough, so he was ready to leave.
It was Lin Xiao, who was always staring at a bamboo board that Zhao Shuzi had made before, and suddenly said, "What are you going to do here?" ”
The eyes of the Zhao family's father and son lit up obviously, and Zhao Tonghammer's tone was undisguised with pride, "My father wants to make me a bow and arrow, my own bow and arrow." "It's really his own.
Thinking of Zhao Tonghammer's archery, Lin Xiao nodded secretly. Suddenly, he said: "Brother Zhao has been on the battlefield?" ”
The father and son of the Zhao family instantly darkened their faces, and Xu Lang subconsciously blocked in front of the three of them.
This girl, sure enough, every time she comes out, she gets into trouble! (To be continued......)
