Chapter 42

After a while, Jiang Wanbai stood up again, "There is something here, everyone be careful." โ€

When the people next to him heard this, they all hurriedly came over, and the thing was so frightened that they quickly retreated backwards, and their bodies were so strong that they were about to disappear into the grass.

At this moment, Ouyang Jun jumped and jumped behind the grass, just cutting off the way of the thing, and the thing had no choice but to "swish" out of the grass and rush towards Jiang Wanbai.

Jiang Wanbai saw the appearance of the thing clearly, the size of a melon, with long thorns on a black background and white tips on his back, a pink face, and slender limbs, which turned out to be a hedgehog.

"Grab it." Ouyang Jun yelled at Jiang Wanbai.

Jiang Wanbai wanted to catch it, but immediately, she thought, damn it, this is a hedgehog, how can she catch it? She has never practiced iron sand palms and golden bell jars, if she catches this, she will not want this hand!

"Find a basket." Jiang Wanbai shouted.

Tian Chengyun hurriedly went in to find the basket, but there was still no time for this, and when he came back, the hedgehog had already burrowed into the firewood pile on the side of the road and fled.

"It's really useless, you can't catch it." Ouyang Jun jumped out of the grass and complained while kicking the firewood.

You have a lot of ability, why don't you catch it yourself, Jiang Wanbai glared at him, and quickly changed the topic, "There must be something in this bush, for a while, you should be careful, don't be pricked by it." โ€

As soon as she said this, everyone was immediately captivated, especially the children, who looked at the grass with fiery eyes, as if there was some mysterious treasure in the grass.

Jiang Wanbai also felt that this was not good, if all those things in the grass escaped, they would definitely have to go to their house in the end, the hedgehog or something was okay, if there were other ......

After looking at the terrain, Jiang Wanbai said: "Let's clean up this grass first, you wait here for a while, I will go to the grass with the carrier, take sticks and sickles to drive those things out, you take the opportunity to catch them, by the way, don't let those things run away." โ€

As she spoke, she looked at Ouyang Jun defiantly.

Ouyang Jun's face raised, "With me, I can't run anything." โ€

The children were tired of pulling weeds, and they were trying to do something interesting, so they all nodded quickly, and those with baskets took baskets, and those with sticks took sticks, as for Ouyang Jun, he found a lot of stones from the side of the road, and weighed them in his hands, looking like he was facing a great enemy.

Jiang Wanbai smiled, took a long stick and went around to the other side of the wasteland, beating the grass with the long stick, while telling Tian Cheng, "You must be careful, although such a dozen will make those bigger animals run, but if there are scorpions or something, it will be bad." โ€

Tian Chengyun is fourteen years old this year, and the peasant family can actually marry at the age of fifteen, in fact, he is basically an adult, and just like his father, he is also a good worker, so listening to Jiang Wanbai say this, in fact, he felt that Jiang Wanbai was a little too fussy in his heart.

However, he was still very grateful for the care Jiang Wanbai gave him, so he took a few steps forward and protected Jiang Wanbai behind him.

The two walked all the way, and after a while, they saw the grass in front of them shaking, and they suddenly refreshed their spirits, but just as they were about to remind Ouyang Jun and the others, they saw two birds of unknown breed flying out of the grass and chirping away.

It turned out to be a bird, Jiang Wanbai just breathed a sigh of relief, but at this time, Ouyang Jun and their side came with an urgent cry.

"Quick, grab it."

"It's going to run, I didn't catch it."

"Ah, Ouyang Jun, you are so powerful, you can kill it with a stone."

"Humph! It's just a rabbit. Ouyang Jun's stinky voice.

The children cheered over there, and Jiang Wanbai also hooked the corners of her mouth, rabbit, is there any rabbit meat to eat at noon today, braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit head, I drool when I think about it.

With the temptation of food, Jiang Wanbai also came to the spirit, holding a long stick and beating the grass hard.

When they came to the place where the little bird flew just now, Tian Chengyun's eyes suddenly lit up, "Milk, there's a bird's nest over there." As he spoke, he ran over there in a few steps, reached out and picked up a bowl-sized grass nest, and in the grass nest there was a flower-skin bird's egg.

"There's only one egg." Tian Chengyun picked up the bird's egg and said with some disappointment.

It's good to have one, you know, in their yard, there are golden beans, "In two days, it is estimated that even this will be gone, just this, it is estimated that it is still the reserve grain left by the golden beans." โ€

Jiang Wanbaijue's golden beans are really hell, they even know sustainable development, and they didn't catch all the birds.

"It's a golden bean, then I'll give it back later." Tian Chengyun said, putting away the bird's eggs well.

Jiang Wanbai was a little speechless, but she didn't say anything and continued to move forward. But this time, they didn't meet again.

Ouyang Jun and the others had been waiting for a long time, but they didn't wait for anything for a long time, seeing that Jiang Wanbai and they were about to come over, they were all a little anxious.

They were hesitating to go into the grass when a hedgehog ran out of the place.

"It's a hedgehog." Tian Chengyu was the closest, and he was holding a basket in his hand, and he immediately buckled the basket on the hedgehog's body.

Afraid that the hedgehog would run away, he pressed on top of the basket again, and then he said happily, "I caught it." โ€

The others also hurriedly ran over, went around the basket, and looked through the hole in the basket, and sure enough, the hedgehog inside was a ball and shrunk inside.

"I really caught it." "What should I do?" "Can I eat this?" The children chattered and discussed.

Tian Chengyun also wanted to see the hedgehog, so he quickly jumped out of the grass in a few steps and got there.

Jiang Wanbai is thinking about how to deal with this hedgehog, the hedgehog is full of treasures, its skin has become a strange fragrance, fairy clothes, is an important Chinese medicinal material, with the effect of reducing qi and relieving pain, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, detoxifying qi, reducing swelling and relieving pain.

Its meat is rich in protein, roasted and eaten can make up for the yuan, regulate the stomach, its fat, can cure eye pulling, diarrhea blood, rubbing can cure bald sores, has the effect of killing skin parasites.

Its brain, heart, liver, gallbladder, kidney, and whip can be used to soak in wine, which can refresh the mind, eliminate fatigue, and strengthen the bones.

There are so many good things on the hedgehog, the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty, in modern times, it is basically rare to see it, and it is also listed as a second-class protected animal by the state, but I didn't expect that I was bumped into by Jiang Wanbai here today.

While thinking, Jiang Wanbai walked out, and at this moment, when she raised her eyes, she found that there seemed to be something in the grass next to her.

Is there still a hedgehog, Jiang Wanbai used a stick to push away the grass, and finally saw the things in the grass clearly.

Sure enough, it was a hedgehog, but it was three small pink and tender hedgehogs, each about the size of a palm, and the thorns on their backs were still white and soft, with half-open eyes, rolling back and forth in the nest, looking stupid and cute.

"There's still one here." Jiang Wanbai shouted to Ouyang Jun and them, and at the same time reached out and picked up a small hedgehog and put it on the palm of her hand, it was soft and soft, just like a small ball, not prickly at all, much cuter than when the giant panda was a child.

The children also hurriedly ran over, and when they saw the little hedgehog clearly, they all exclaimed, and then scrambled to get the remaining two little hedgehogs.

Ouyang Jun took a step slower and didn't grab it, glared at others, and said disdainfully: "Childish." โ€

Will you die if you are not so proud! Jiang Wanbai smiled and gave him the one in his hand, he quickly caught it with his hand, and then looked at it reluctantly.

This thing is so soft and weak, he can send it to the west with a pinch of his hand.

"Milk, let's raise them!" Tian Liu'er touched the little hedgehog, and immediately burst with maternal love.

Since Jiang Wanbai said yesterday that the screen embroidered by Tian Liu'er was sold for five taels of silver, this little girl is like a bean sprout that has absorbed water, and finally becomes stiff and lively.

As soon as she said this, she immediately received a response from the others, and they all looked at Jiang Wanbai pleadingly.

Jiang Wanbai naturally didn't have any opinions, but, "This hedgehog may not be easy to feed." "Hedgehogs are wild animals that rarely succeed in domestication.

"No, we'll take good care of them. By the way, and that big hedgehog, we can keep them together. Tian Liu'er was holding the hedgehog, a little reluctant to let go, and the anxious Tian Chengyu turned straight beside him.

"You can try it, but if you can't feed them, let them go, this hedgehog is actually a good partner in farming, and can eat a lot of ants, insects and whatever." Jiang Wanbai still has a good impression of the hedgehog, but she didn't think about how to eat it.

However, she heard that the hedgehog seemed to be quite delicious, wrapped in mud and roasted, which was much more delicious than the flower chicken, otherwise the stewed soup would be fine, or...... No, Jiang Wanbai felt that she couldn't think about it anymore, it was too sinful.

The children agreed, and they got together to discuss how to raise the hedgehogs, "I can make a cage." Tian Chengyun inherited Tian Laosan's skillful hands and was very familiar with these things.

The children immediately happily urged him to do it.

Jiang Wanbai also knew that the children were tired, but she was not in a hurry to urge them to continue working, so she let them play by themselves with a wave of her hand, and then her eyes moved to the dead rabbit next to her.

There are blood stains on the rabbit's head, obviously it is its fatal wound, I heard that this injury was hit by Ouyang Jun with a stone, this kid's kung fu is not bad! Jiang Wan said in her heart, but she wouldn't say it, otherwise, Ouyang Jun's tail would not reach the sky.

Picking up the rabbit, Jiang Wanbai took everyone back to the courtyard, resting while preparing to make lunch, the morning sun shone into the courtyard, and the courtyard was quiet and harmonious.

At this time, the court was full of mountains and rain, Ouyang Jun was sick with Zeng Taifu, and the emperor was very unhappy with this matter, and asked Ouyang Zhen to discipline Ouyang Jun well.

It's just such a simple thing, but the court took some old foxes but immediately smelled a strange smell, it stands to reason that this matter doesn't need to be brought to the court to say, what does the emperor mean by this? There is no room for the Jian family and the Ouyang family, do you want to get rid of them quickly!

But also, Concubine Jian's son is also about to become an adult, with the power of the Jian family, the Ouyang family, and the Ning Palace, one is a literati, one is a heavy soldier, the other is a royal family, plus a favored prince, even if they have no dissent, it is estimated that the emperor and the prince will not sleep well every night.

โ–กโ–ก is afraid that the prince will be in a different position, as for the emperor, even if he is willing to pass on the position to Concubine Jian's son, he is also afraid of the dictatorship of his relatives, and in the future, the world of this Li Dynasty does not know who it will fall into.

Someone โ–กโ–ก immediately stood up and sent a message to the emperor, saying that Ouyang Jun actually rode a horse in the capital yesterday, causing the 18-year-old man to fall, and this morning, the old man had died.

The emperor was immediately furious, but he did not immediately deal with Ouyang Jun, only said that he would bury the old man and compassionate his family, and then announced his retirement from the dynasty.

The court immediately surged with undercurrents, this time it was just a temptation, as for whether the old man was dead or not, no one cared at all, the matter of hurting people on a horse could not hurt the big tree of the Ouyang family at all, but the key was the emperor's attitude.

A lot of people are already moving, and they feel that the day is about to change.

Ouyang Zhen's face was as gloomy as water, the emperor's body was getting older and older, and his favor was getting weaker and weaker, and what he was most afraid of was still coming.

Back in the house, Li Qingyi was already waiting for him in the living room, as well as Jane's.

"Uncle." Li Qingyi called Ouyang Zhen.

Ouyang Zhen was silent for a long time, "The Ouyang family has been loyal for generations, and the emperor will understand." โ€

Li Qingyi's eyes flashed, he thought for a while, and he said, "Then uncle, am I bringing my cousin back." โ€

Ouyang Zhen shook his head, now this capital is like an iron cage, it is not possible to go out, how can he let his handsome man come back.

Jane's was very anxious next to her, but she knew that this was not a trivial matter, Ouyang Zhen had made up her mind, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only look at Li Qingyi, hoping that he could have a way.

Li Qingyi looked at Jane soothingly and didn't speak.

"From tomorrow onwards, the door of Ouyang's house will be closed, and I won't see anyone again, and to the outside world, I will say that I am sick." Ouyang Zhen said this leisurely, and then said to Li Qingyi, "You can go too, otherwise let outsiders see it, and the Ouyang family will be even more speechless." โ€

Li Qingyi didn't have any extra expression, he just said that he wanted Ouyang Zhen to take care of his body, and then withdrew.

The capital was in turmoil, and the Tian family also broke the tranquility with the return of Tian Laoer.

"Mother, the third uncle said that no one wants that land at all, if our family wants it, we just need to go to the government to prepare a case.

Then, I went to see Fang Rui again, Fang Rui went to help me inquire, and said that as long as two taels of silver, he could do it. Tian Lao Er took a sip of water and said to Jiang Wanbai breathlessly.

"Okay, you take the silver in the afternoon and let Fang Rui help us take care of things. By the way, doesn't he love shrimp paste, bring him a can. โ€

Tian Lao Er nodded and looked at the sky, "Mother, it doesn't take the afternoon, you give me the silver now, and I'll go now." In the afternoon, I'll work with you to get out of the field, and at this time, it should be too late to plant some vegetables. โ€

Jiang Wanbai naturally had no opinion, went back to the house and took the money, and handed it over to Tian Laoer.

Not long after Tian Lao Er left, Tian Lao Si came back in an ox cart, and there were still oilcloths, bamboo poles and other things on the ox cart.

As soon as the ox cart stopped, Tian Wenhu, who was driving the cart, rushed to move the things off the ox cart, and when he saw Jiang Wanbai, he smiled and said, "I happened to meet in the town, so I sent it back." Sister-in-law, are you going to pitch a tent? โ€

Tian Wenhu has bought an ox cart since he made a fortune last time, and now at his house, except for Tian Chenglin, who is still sick, everything else is very good, and his life is smooth. Of course, what he can't forget the most is Jiang Wanbai's kindness, which is why he is so enthusiastic.

"yes, I want to pitch a tent." Jiang Wanbai replied.

"I'll come, I used to serve in the barracks." Tian Wenhu said jokingly, "I promise to give you a strong and durable ride." โ€

The Li Dynasty implemented the service of drawing ding, and almost every family would have someone to serve, but some were conscription, some were military service, and of course, if you have money, you can also take money to replace it.

And the Tian family, it stands to reason that there are a lot of people, and there should be someone to serve, but Tian Boss is a talent, and the imperial court values scholars, but exempts the Tian family from service, from this point of view, Tian Boss can be regarded as doing a little good to the Tian family.

However, after Boss Tian was separated, the Tian family would have to consider this matter in the future.

Jiang Wanbai secretly wrote down this matter, and hurriedly promised Tian Wenhu to let Tian Laosi help together, and everyone followed Tian Wenhu to set up a tent.

This kind of thing is really not difficult for those who can set up a tent, but it is not for those who are difficult, plus Tian Wenhu heard that he bought things to set up a tent in the town, so he helped pick out the right materials, so the tent was set up after a while.

Jiang Wanbai was naturally very grateful and wanted to leave Tian Wenhu for dinner, but Tian Wenhu said that there was still something at home, so he drove the ox cart away.

When Tian Wenhu left, Jiang Wanbai began to look at the tent, the earthy yellow tarpaulin was the size of a house, about the same as a yurt, and he couldn't shake it at all if he shook it with his hand, it can be seen that Tian Wenhu really didn't say much, this tent is very strong.

The children looked excitedly, Ouyang Jun's eyebrows and eyes were also smiling, this tent made him feel like he was living in a military camp, but also, it was so hard and challenging here, and it was almost the same as a military camp.

Jiang Wanbai didn't know Ouyang Jun's thoughts yet, otherwise, she didn't know what her expression was.

"Mother, I saw two people in the town today." Tian Lao Er put the meat he bought into the house, came back, and asked Jiang Wanbai with a mysterious face, "Guess who it is?" โ€

"Who?" Jiang Wanbai knows only a few, where can I guess.

"It's Tian Wenji and Ma Xiaocui, these two people actually came together again, it's really shameless.

By the way, I also saw them enter a courtyard together, and when I inquired with others, I learned that this courtyard was rented by Tian Wenji. Tian Laosi seemed to want to deliberately lower his voice, pinching his throat and flattening his mouth, but his volume was not small at all, and almost everyone in the hospital heard it.

"What you said is true?" As soon as the Zhao family heard this, they became energetic, the last time the Xu family harmed her, she never had a chance to take revenge.

"Of course, I know both of them, turned into ashes." Tian Laosi took a sip, "This Tian Wenji is a ghost, why can't he be reluctant to let go after picking up a pair of broken shoes!" โ€

Broken shoes is a word here to describe a woman's water-based poplar.

"Hmph, you just have to mind yourself." Zhao glared at Tian Laosi, "Don't think I don't know your thoughts, broken shoes?" It's a broken shoe, and you people like it. โ€

Tian Laosi was a little embarrassed, "It's good to say, why are you mentioning me again?" โ€

Zhao glared at him, her eyes rolled, and she said to Zhang: "Third sister-in-law, did you give her the handkerchief that Xu asked you to embroider for her last time?" If not, I'll send it to her. โ€

Zhang was a little embarrassed, glanced at Jiang Wanbai, and said, "Not yet, so many things have happened, she didn't come to ask for it, and I haven't had time to send it." โ€

"That's right, third sister-in-law, go get it for me." Zhao urged, today, see if she is not angry with Xu.

As soon as the Zhang family was about to turn around and go back to the house, they heard Jiang Wanbai say: "Third daughter-in-law, you take a handkerchief, hurry up and send it to the Xu family, and don't say anything." โ€

After speaking, Jiang Wanbai said to Zhao again: "As for you, let me stay at home, don't you think the trouble I caused last time was not big enough?" โ€
