Min Chong tied the reins to a large jujube tree in the western corner of the courtyard and helped Jiang Qingliu down from the carriage. The three of them took a brief look at this courtyard, it was a courtyard house facing north and south, with three blue brick houses in the front and back, and two side rooms in the east and west, which looked neat and solid, and unknown wild flowers blooming on the side of the courtyard wall, which looked wild and interesting; In the front yard, two vegetable beds were opened in the east corner, planted some seasonal vegetables, and set up shelves, thinking that they were planted with courgettes, cowpeas, etc.; I also noticed that the road from the courtyard gate to the main house was also paved with large pieces of smooth bluestone slabs, which would not be muddy even on rainy days; A straw shed was built in the corner of the backyard, piled with straw and firewood, and there was a fence next to it. Although this rural courtyard is not as good as the magnificent mansion they usually live in, it is also much better than that of ordinary farmers, neat and bright, and full of vitality.

Little Brother Wang was about to take them to the main hall to rest, but a woman in her thirties came out of the house with a wooden basin. She was startled at first when she saw this large group of people suddenly appearing, and then saw that the little brother Wang standing in front was smiling flatteringly at her. She was surprised and delighted, and finally let go of her heart after a day, and couldn't help but get angry after being frightened, and wanted to reprimand her a few words, but she noticed that she was on crutches, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, and hurriedly put down the wooden basin a few steps to his side, looked up and down, and asked anxiously: "Jin'er, what's wrong, I haven't been home for a day and a night, where is the injury, is it serious?" If you don't want to go, you have to go, is it what your daughter's family does to go to the mountains to hunt, do you want to have another good one, how can you let your mother have the face to explain to your father? The more she spoke, the more sad she became, and she couldn't stop crying. Brother Wang, who was called Jin'er, hurriedly coaxed her and said: "Mother, I just twisted my foot, and I won't be able to walk for a while, but fortunately I met a kind person who sent me back, mother, don't cry, help me greet the guests, how can there be a reason for the guests to stand stupidly at the door!" As she spoke, she winked at the stunned master and servant.

Only then did the three of them react, Jiang Qingliu bowed his head slightly to Min Chong, Min Chong understood, and said to the woman with a fist: "How can you worry about it." The three of us were passing by here, and we happened to hear the voice of Wang Xiao----- girl calling for help, so we sent her back all the way. It's just that my son-in-law suddenly felt unwell and wanted to find a place to recuperate and rest, I wonder if the sister-in-law of the Wang family can make it convenient? So saying, he bowed to the woman. At this moment, the woman has recovered, and she can hear that these three people have saved her daughter back, and seeing that the son's temperament is extraordinary, and the entourage is also steady, and the precaution is gone, she hurriedly wiped her tears, straightened her clothes, and thanked the three of them: "Thank you for rescuing my daughter, she is naughty, and she has caused trouble to you along the way, please come into the house and sit, this son will rest assured to live here, and take care of his body, but I, a countryman, have nothing good, so don't dislike it." ”

"Then it's going to trouble my sister-in-law." Min Chong Road.

Wang's sister-in-law placed them in the empty guest room in the east wing, which was fully furnished, only moved a few new beds of bedding, and somewhere brought out a set of tea sets and tea leaves, and brewed them for them, and saw that her daughter was indeed only sprained, and her ankle was a little swollen, but it had been bandaged, so she put her mind at ease and asked her daughter to sit on the bamboo chair on the side to greet the guests, and to be busy with laundry and cooking, and to clean up the wild things that had been hunted. Jiang Qingliu reclined on the blue-gray plain pillow on the bed, his hand gently rubbed the teacup, although his face was still a little pale, but his demeanor was calm, and he lined up this ordinary camphor wood Arhat bed with a bit of nobility. Min Chong and Qin Ziming stood on his left and right with his arms crossed, and the three of them all looked at "Little Brother Wang" with a smile.

"Hehe, big brothers, I'm sorry, I usually dress up a little rougher for the convenience of hunting, so you misunderstand." She sat down in her chair and apologized slightly uneasily.

"I don't blame Miss Wang for this, not to mention that Miss Wang never said that she was a boy, but we were clumsy and admitted that we were wrong. I also want to thank the girl for saving her life and taking her in, how can I blame the girl in turn. Jiang Qingliu's words were very ironed, and Wang Jian smiled secretly in his heart, even if you know the current affairs, it will not be in vain for me to save your life.

In fact, when Jiang Qingliu and the three of them heard that the woman revealed her daughter's identity, her eyes were really about to leak out, but after looking at her carefully, they felt that they were too careless before. I saw that there were clear ear piercings on her small ears and earlobes, but they were covered with broken hair intentionally or unintentionally, and the skeleton was slender, and the waist wrapped in coarse cloth was even more unbearable, and then looked at her thick eyebrows were clearly modified, although it was not obvious, but the eyesight of the three of them was comparable to ordinary people, plus her goose egg face and facial features were beautiful, so take a look, what kind of countryman is this, it is clearly a beauty embryo! The three of them were surprised and frustrated in their hearts, and they couldn't help but feel a little pity for this little girl. If it weren't for her livelihood, why would such a delicate girl dress up like this and go hunting in the mountains. At this moment, I heard her take the initiative to mention and apologize, of course, she will not be investigated.

At this time, there was a child's cry outside: "Sister, sister, you're back!" Before he finished speaking, he saw a boy of seven or eight years old running in with a little girl of four or five years old, and as soon as he came in, he gathered around Wang Jin, holding hands and feet around her.

"Shi'er, Tang'er, don't be rude, don't hurry up and salute the guests first!" The man who said this was a boy of about ten years old, who stood at the door of the wing room and scolded his younger siblings with a stern expression.

I saw that when the two children heard their brother's words, they immediately let go of the hand that was holding on their sister, stood up obediently, saluted Jiang Qingliu and the three of them, and shouted in turn: "Hello brother, good uncle (uncle)!" ”

"Brother, you're not shouting right, the bearded man is obviously an uncle!"

"It's uncle, I don't believe he shaved his beard!"

Listening to the argument of these two children, everyone couldn't help laughing, Jiang Qingliu glanced at Qin Ziming, Qin Ziming immediately walked to the two children and squatted down, took out two gold bills from his purse and handed them to them, and coaxed: "Uncle is right, uncle is right, look at my brother to give you a good thing." The two little babies were about to take it, but the older boy stepped forward and stopped: "It's useless, my younger brothers and sisters are young and love to mess around, so they can't accept such a valuable gift, please take it back." Qin Ziming saw that although the boy was young, he spoke clearly and clearly, and his expression was even more serious and serious, no matter how smooth and clever he usually was, he didn't know how to deal with it.

Jiang Qingliu was drinking tea, and after listening to the little boy's words, he couldn't help but glance at him, with a little appreciation in his eyes, he put the teacup on the low table on the couch, and explained to the little boy: "Our master and servant are thanks to Miss Wang and Sister-in-law Wang's kindness to take them in today, but I am afraid that we will have to harass you here for a few days, not only occupy your house, but also consume rice and grain, and also bother Sister-in-law Wang to take care of your daily life. The boy was justified by his words, and thanked him.

The two little babies happily took the gold bill, and found that it was made into the shape of a carp, the slightly curved fish, the scales are lifelike, it can be seen that the craftsmanship is exquisite, and the fish mouth has a hole for threading, which is suitable for wearing on the child's hands and neck, and can't help but love it.

"Okay, okay, now that you have your stuff, go out and play obediently, don't disturb the guests' rest." Wang Jin coaxed the two naughty ghosts out, and said to Jiang Qingliu and the others: "Son, let's rest here first, I won't bother, if you want to take something, just come to the front yard to find me." Shepherd, come with me. After saying that, he greeted the younger brother on the side and went out.
