Chapter Twenty-Eight: Aunt Chen

This night, Qiubai finally had a good night's sleep.

At eight o'clock, Qiubai got up, washed up as usual and run, when he ran through the bamboo forest, Qiubai deliberately went to the place where he found the pinnacle mushroom yesterday to take a look, because it didn't rain last night, and the pinnacle mushroom didn't grow again, which made Qiubai regret for a while.

More than eight o'clock is the cool time, Uncle Zhang in the village has already gone to work in the field, saw Qiubai running from the bamboo forest, shouted to him, picked a fresh cucumber from the field and threw it to Qiubai, Qiubai quickly thanked him, did not wash, wiped it with his hand, wiped off the tender thorns and put it in his mouth to gnaw, this cucumber is extremely tender, crisp and sweet, Qiubai eats quite pleasantly.

The first thing Qiubai did after returning home was to remove the cloth on the fish pit, yesterday a day and night has let the cement dry, Qiubai is the first time to do this kind of project, but obviously lucky, did not become a tofu slag, as long as a while to get some mud into the field, and then fill the water after the black sha can move in, here will be the black nest in the future.

Entered the house and drove out seven catties and eight catties, the two lambs were not as crazy as Qiubai imagined, but they also grew up nearly a circle, Qiubai weighed the scales, seven catties have now grown to fifteen and a half catties, eight catties have grown to sixteen catties, the biggest change is not so much size, but their appearance.

Yesterday the two sheep were still lambs, so Qiubai didn't distinguish them, but today they have grown up, Qiubai can see at once, seven catties is a ram, it has horns on its head, and eight catties is a ewe, the ewe in the soil sheep does not have horns, but will grow a beard, eight catties will grow a beard.

The horns of the seven catties have grown to five or six centimeters long, and the beards of the eight catties are about the same, which is the biggest difference between the two sheep, and another change is the wool on their bodies.

The black wool is almost hanging to the ground, like hanging two screens on the body, both sheep are like this, it looks a little weird, a bit like a yak, don't two sheep feel hot when they grow so much hair? Qiu Bai muttered to himself.

Qiubai's sensing ability was suffocated by the two sheep, because he couldn't sense the thoughts of the two sheep, well, the sensing ability is obviously not very ripe, and Qiubai is also doing nonsense now, what conditions are needed.

As soon as they ran out of the house, they began to spread wild happily, and the plants in the yard were still abundant, enough for them to eat a lot, and soon they found a place to start gnawing grass, and Qiubai just glanced at it and no longer bothered.

The mosquito trap grass does not start work in the morning, so Qiubai's attention quickly shifted to the creeper planted yesterday.

The effect of Tai Sui water is quite powerful, there is no doubt about this, the creeper transplanted by cuttings has replanted in just one night, and has grown more than ten centimeters, and successfully climbed on the bamboo, which also means that it will not take a few days for the creeper to cover the surrounding space.

"Soon a creeper green net will be formed, creeper will not grow insects, but it is very worry-free, but if the top is too dense, I'm afraid the bottom will look a little dark, or get a lamp to hang on the bamboo? It looks good and illuminates. ”

Qiubai soon had a new idea, and he had to go to the town to buy vegetables, buying some wires and light bulbs was just a matter of effort, and it didn't take much effort at all, but if he got it right, the yard would form a landscape in the future, and why not make the place where he lived more beautiful.

"Okay, let's go dig in the field first, and when the fish pit is finished, we can go to the street to buy thread and light bulbs."

Rural life is quite simple, especially Qiubai, there is no field to plant now, so there is a lot of time, and Qiubai has nothing to do after these two things are done today, compared to the busyness of the people in the city, Qiubai really seems a little decadent.

Finding yesterday's dustpan, Qiubai walked towards Repulse Bay, where it was full of mud, and the mud was relatively fertile, and it was naturally very effective to spread this mud in the fish pit.

Yesterday's heavy rain has not lowered the water level of Repulse Bay, but it doesn't matter, Qiubai doesn't fish, ran to the edge of Repulse Bay and plucked it with a dustpan a few times, it was full of dustpan of soil, and pulled a few peanut vines, and the fish pit was a little green to look more comfortable.

Back in the yard to pour the mud into the fish pit, spread it out, Qiu Bai found that there was a small loach inside, what an unlucky little guy, living in the same room with the black sha, it would definitely not be long before the black sha was eaten.

It took six buckets of water to fill the fish pit, Qiu Bai picked up the water basin and poured Tai Sui water and Hei Sha into the fish pit, and then threw the peanut vine on it, this fish pit is finished, and Qiu Bai can also not find food for Heisha, naturally there will be mice sent to the door.

Heisha obviously didn't adapt to the change of environment, and he snapped his tail in the pit, making the water splash loudly, and it soon became muddy, and Qiubai didn't care about it, and the next thing was to go to the city to buy wires and light bulbs.

"Ahem." The sound of coughing came from behind him, Qiu Bai looked back, and suddenly piled up a smile: "Auntie, why are you here?" ”

This is Aunt Chen, Qiubai can also call her Grandma Chen, because this person is almost seventy years old, and she always coughs, but her body is quite tough, and she usually stays in the house and rarely comes out.

Mrs. Chen's wife went more than ten years ago, and now she lives alone in Repulse Bay, she originally had three sons, the eldest son and the second child also died, leaving the third child, the third child got married and took his wife and children out to work, and he couldn't go home once a year, so what happened to this Aunt Chen was very embarrassing, fortunately, she is still in good health, and usually makes shoes to make a living, but it is also quite difficult, Qiubai came back in the past few days except for the first day to see her, this is the second time.

"Qiubai, help my aunt put me on the line." Aunt Chen coughed and said, the eldest mother is very short, maybe less than one meter four, and when she coughs, she is even more arched, which makes Qiubai feel a little nervous in her heart, and secretly curses the eldest mother's son, this is a big unfilial piety.

"That's good, auntie." Qiu Bai nodded hurriedly, this matter is too simple.

The so-called threading is to pass the thread through the eye of the needle, because Aunt Chen is presbyopia, and she can't see it when she gets close, so it's very laborious, but Qiubai is not, this kind of trivial thing Qiubai can't refuse.

Aunt Chen brought the needle and thread, handed it to Qiubai and said thank you.

"Auntie, what's the matter, if you have something to talk about in the future, it's not easy for you to be at home alone, by the way, what about your baby, when will you come back."

When she mentioned her baby, the eldest mother's face was gloomy, and her face was full of sorrow: "My baby may have something." ”

It was very easy to thread the thread and handed it to the eldest mother: "Auntie, I have to go to the town in a while, do you have anything to buy?" I'll bring it back for you, lest you have to make another trip." ”

Aunt Chen hesitated, but still shook her head: "Forget it, I don't have anything to bring, you can play by yourself, I'm leaving." ”

"Oh, okay, slow down, you have something to talk about, auntie."

Looking at Aunt Chen's back, Qiubai shook her head, sighed, I don't know what to say, the shoes made by Aunt Chen are called Ji Po shoes, this kind of shoes are particularly strong, and they are particularly warm, but the style is quite soil, almost no young people will wear them, and there is a market in winter, like summer can't be sold at all, and now she can't do farm work, so life is difficult, Chen Auntie's earthen house seems to have not been renovated for a long time, and many tiles on the top are broken.

"By the way, it rained yesterday, will there be rain leaks in the eldest mother's house?" Qiubai thought about it again and again, but still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, anyway, it was uncomfortable, so he shouted: "Auntie, I'll go to your house to sit down." ”
