Chapter 50: The Wolf's Reward

The days are as plain and tasteless as boiled water, unconsciously Qingjia has grown taller again, and the eyebrows are more delicate than before, occasionally there are outsiders who pass by and are tired of resting here at a glance and are inevitably surprised, there are such beautiful people in this barren mountains and mountains, and they don't know at a glance and think that they are the goblins in the mountains.

The medical books sent by Liu Zhongmou have been piled up, and occasionally if there are any incurable diseases, he can ask He Yingyuan when he goes to the county to buy things, but he can also have some unexpected gains.

When He Yingyuan got married for about four months, his wife was diagnosed with a happy pulse, and he was about to become a father for the first time, he was particularly happy, and his eyebrows were full of peace and tranquility, and he no longer saw the loneliness and loss of his first acquaintance.

Qingjia was very happy for him, and made a tiger head hat and a small belly pocket for his child early, looking at the happy expressions of their husband and wife, she was also very envious in her heart.

I don't know what's going on, she and Chen Wei have been married for a while, but there is no news in her stomach, and she is embarrassed to ask others about this kind of thing, so she can only secretly envy and puzzle.

Alas, that's it, the left and right are not in a hurry, and it is in vain for him to say anything now far away at the border.

Qingjia's temperament jumped out, and soon became happy again, the wisteria in the backyard has climbed all over the pergola, not to mention how comfortable it is to sit there in the summer, Chen Wei also made her a recliner before leaving, the weather was so hot that she went to the chair, and it was very comfortable to take a nap.

However, what puzzled Qingjia was that since the beginning of spring, he could always pick up some pheasants and hares in the backyard, and the corpses had deep tooth marks on them, which looked like some beast had bitten them to death.

She was frightened at first, and she didn't dare to eat it at all, so she just dug a pit and buried it hastily, thinking that everything would be fine. Strange as it may have been, it would have happened several times in a row, and every few days it was always found in the backyard, sometimes one or two hares, sometimes half a roe deer, and even half an elk.

After a long time, Qingjia will get used to it, if you find it, you will pick it up and process it into a dish, after all, it is also a rare mountain delicacies, which is very nutritious. Sometimes if you can't finish eating, you will give it to the neighbor next door, everyone is surprised at first, but then they envy Qingjia's good luck after many times.

Aunt Zhang took most of the pheasants from Qingjia's hand and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, Jiajia, in a while, Auntie will come to my house to eat together at noon, and save the effort of making lunch." ”

Qingjia shook her head shyly: "No need, auntie, I still have leftovers here, chicken soup is simmering for my mother on the stove." ”

Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law is pregnant, and it is the time to make up for her body, and it is said that she was also pregnant but unfortunately did not keep it, so everyone is very concerned about it this time.

Although it is carefully cared for, but after all, the people who live here are ordinary people, and they are born without the life of big fish and meat, and the best tonic is to find two eggs in the nest every day and boil them and eat them.

Qingjia looked at the increasingly bulging abdomen of the Zhang family's sister-in-law, both curious and envious, and often ran to chat with her. The sister-in-law of the Zhang family is not in good health and is getting older in the month, so the family doesn't need her to do things in the field, just do some trivial things at home, and she happens to have the time to do embroidery work with Qingjia every day, clean the house or something.

"Sister-in-law, your belly is so big, can I touch it?" Qingjia tilted her head, her eyes full of curiosity.

Zhang's sister-in-law directly grabbed her hand and put it on her stomach, Qingjia just felt the belly of her hand suddenly move, and she was instantly startled, and quickly withdrew her hand, her small mouth formed a circle, her eyes were round, and she looked shocked, which was really cute.

"Poof-" The sister-in-law of the Zhang family couldn't help laughing: "I'm not curious now, this kid has been tossing, and he has been turning over the river and the sea in his stomach all day long. ”

Although there were many complaints in the words of the sister-in-law of the Zhang family, there was a lot of happiness and tranquility between her eyebrows and eyes, and the brilliance of motherhood quietly shrouded her, making her look indescribably gentle and beautiful.

Qingjia stretched out his hand and carefully put it on his belly, not without envy, and said: "In two months, a little doll will come out of here, it's really good..."

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family knew her thoughts, patted her hand, and said, "If one day you are also pregnant with a child, you don't know how beautiful you will be when you are born." You and Chen Wei are so good-looking, the child will definitely not be bad, and when the time comes, it will be a disaster for the country and the people, if the son is afraid that he doesn't know how many girls in the boudoir will take away the hearts of the girls, if the daughter is the emperor, the old man will probably bow down to the skirt when he sees it. ”

Qingjia didn't care about her appearance, she thought in her heart that she could give birth to a baby like Chen Wei, it would be great.

It's a pity that Chen Wei's stomach hasn't moved since he was here, and now that he is not around, there is even less hope, and these thoughts can only be thought about.

The sister-in-law of the Zhang family stroked her stomach for a while, looked at her emotional loss, and said: "You see if you don't give you so many good things from time to time, where can this little thing grow so strong, and when he comes out, he will ask him to recognize you as a godmother." ”

Qingjia was overjoyed when she heard this, and quickly nodded: "Wow," after that, he leaned close to his belly and said softly: "You have to come out quickly, my godmother will make you new clothes." ”

The time for the two to talk and laugh together passed quickly, and the time after talking was a little late, Qingjia was walking through the path of more than ten meters when he was going home, he suddenly heard a loud sound, and subconsciously became vigilant, stood still in place, pricked up his ears, and found that the sound came from his own backyard, and the cat was crawling closer.

A pair of green beast eyes are especially obvious in the dark night, without waiting for Qingjia to scream, it seems to have found that she jumped into the forest and disappeared, Qingjia subconsciously stepped back and found that the soles of his feet were soft as if he had stepped on something, a scream, frightened, ran back to the room and pulled the door bolt, hid in bed, and spent the night trembling.

The next morning, she remembered this in her heart, and hurried to the backyard to take a look, and there were two hares on the ground, which she estimated was the one she had stepped on last night, and then she saw that there were many footprints of wild beasts on the ground. Not daring to delay, she immediately went to invite the hunter in the village to see what it was that broke into her house late at night.

Orion came and looked at the hare's wounds, and said, "This is the wolf's legacy, and so are the paw prints." ”

Qingjia was taken aback, very surprised, and was afraid at the moment, this wolf on Qixia Mountain was notoriously cunning and ferocious, and there were also cannibalistic incidents during the famine years.

Orion saw her fear, and said, "If you are afraid, I have some patches for you to take and put in your yard, and the next time it comes, you can catch it." ”

Qingjia was stunned for a long time, and then nodded: "Then thank you, Brother Wang." ”

Brother Wang waved his hand: "What is this worth, a trivial matter," he seemed to think of something good, and smiled: "If you really catch it, then you will divide half of the meat of that beast into me, in addition, the fur is also a good thing, I look at this paw print is not small, it is estimated that it is quite big, and it must be no problem to eat a full meal." ”

Qing Jia couldn't stop thanking him, sure enough, in the afternoon, Brother Wang sent the trap, Qing Jia felt that the iron thorns on it were sharp and dense, if it was really going to be injured by it, I was afraid that the claws would be broken, and I couldn't help but feel frightened, and it was heavy and cold in my hand.

She sighed in her heart, and could not bear it, and put it in the yard and spread some weeds on it to cover it, and when she went back to the room, she saw the hare on the table again, and after thinking about it, she went to the yard and put away the trap.

Although the wolf has a brutal temperament, if it has sent these things for so long, then there is no malice, although I don't know why it did this, but after all, there is no malice, several times she did not close the window at night, and the window is facing the backyard is fine.

In that case, it should ...... It's okay, right?

Qingjia took the trap and returned it to Brother Wang, making him surprised: "Jiajia, what are you doing, the wolf caught it?" ”

“…… I don't want to catch it anymore. ”

Brother Wang frowned: "Jiajia, this is not a joke, the wolf is a beast very fierce, very hungry and eats everything, it always runs into your yard, you don't catch it today, what if something happens in the future?" ”

Qingjia shook his head: "But I don't think it will hurt me, if it really wants to hurt me and eat me, then what's the point of throwing things into my yard these days......"

"Alas, Jiajia ......" Brother Wang wanted to persuade again, but Qingjia was already red-faced, hung his head and whispered: "Anyway, I still think don't arrest it, thank you, Brother Wang!" ”

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly ran away, and Brother Wang shouted twice behind him and didn't dare to look back.

I don't know if I was scared that night, and the wolf didn't come again for a long time after that, Qingjia was a little guilty from the initial fear to the back.

On a hot night in midsummer, Qingjia couldn't sleep in bed, turning over and over the mattress messy, and the room was stuffy, so she sat up and pushed open the window, and a slight cool breeze came in, which was very refreshing and made her confused brain sober up a little.

She couldn't sleep left and right, so she tied her hair with a rope at will, and then pillowed her arms on the windowsill, looked at the wisteria trellis and swing in the backyard, and calculated that the time was exactly the middle of the month, so the moon in the sky was big and round, and the faint moonlight sprinkled on the ground would shine the shadows of the trees clearly.

Suddenly, some small voices came from the mountain in the backyard, and Qingjia's heart jumped suddenly, and she had a faint premonition.

Sure enough, after a while, a swift and strong beast shadow jumped into view, it was a giant wolf with a whole body of silver and gray, with smooth skin and hair, and his ears stood straight and moved from time to time, so frightened that Qingjia didn't even dare to breathe, and it had a pheasant on its mouth, although it was motionless, but it was still dripping blood.

The giant wolf looked around for a moment, and when she swept to the window, she happened to meet Qing Jia's eyes, and when she looked at each other, Qing Jia's heart instantly tightened, and at this time she completely seemed to have forgotten that she was facing a fierce beast, and even scared it into not moving.

The wolf only glanced at her and then lowered his head to put the prey down, then turned and jumped into the deep woods and disappeared, before it left, Qingjia did not see any aggression in its eyes, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that his judgment was correct.

It really has no ill will towards itself.

Qingjia put on her clothes and went to the backyard to pick up the pheasant, the blood stains were not dry, but the touch was still warm, and for some reason her heart was also hot.

After that, everything was as usual, she would still receive gifts from wolves from time to time, and she couldn't understand why she told Chen Wei about this strange thing when she wrote a letter.

Chen Wei, who was far away in Cloud City, remembered the lone wolf who had been with him for a long time when he went down the mountain, and his heart was clear.

Qingjia folded Chen Wei's letter and put it away, and the mystery in his heart was finally solved.

It turned out that I came to repay the favor.
