Lu Xiaoyi's consciousness has been completely disconnected from her body, she feels light, but her hands and feet are as heavy as lead, her nasal cavity, throat and lungs are uncomfortable to death, her arms have given up struggling, and slowly swaying with the water.

At this moment, a shadow swam towards her, a strong hand grasped her arm, and the other hand of the shadow paddled down hard, and the skillful webbing of her legs dragged her and the little boy to the surface of the water.

The halo above his head slowly became bigger and brighter, and there was a splash of water, and the rescuer was the first to show his head, followed by Lu Xiaoyi and the little boy.

Lu Xiaoyi first choked on water, then inhaled desperately, and then choked on water and coughed, breathing heavily, and his lungs hurt.

The same is true for young boys.

waited until Lu Xiaoyi recovered her strength, and then turned her head to see that the person who grabbed her arm was surplus food, and the little boy who almost killed her turned out to be Shen Qiang.

"Thank you!"

Yu Liang smiled faintly, didn't speak, took her and Shen Qiang to the shore, and another fierce man plunged into the water and swam towards the opposite shore.

Xiao Ding and the magpie ran over crying, and the little boys who were swimming in the water also cried and came over, seeing that she and Shen Qiang were okay, and cheered again.

The little boy who went to the village to report the news led the way in front, followed by the villagers who rushed to save people, and the sad cries of Shen Pozi Shen Qiangniang and Liu Pozi Liu Baoniang came from behind the villagers.

Liu Bao, who was rescued first, and Shen Qiang, who was rescued last, had not yet recovered from their dying struggles just now, their limbs were sore and lying side by side on the grass, the whites of their eyes were half-rolled, and the corners of their mouths overflowed with a few wisps of stream water from time to time.

Lu Xiaoyi recovered quickly, she sat on a stone slab, slowly adjusted her breathing, and watched the surplus grain coming out of the water on the other side carry the fish basket away, until the figure of the surplus grain disappeared into the bushes by the stream, she came back to her senses.

The villagers had already gathered around, Shen Pozi and Shen Qiangniang rushed over, hugged the little fat man in their arms and cried, Liu Bao was the same, almost the fear of yin and yang separation made the ancestors and grandchildren hug their heads and cry.

Yulan peeled off the crowd and rushed over, hugged Lu Xiaoyi and cried: "Why are you so capable, you, how can I live if you put your life on the line!" You disobedient person, are you going to me off to death? ”

Lu Xiaoyi hugged Yulan's neck and comforted softly: "Mother, aren't I fine?" ”

waited until everyone calmed down, Liu Bao and Shen Qiang told the truth of the matter.

It turned out that the little boys were tired of swimming at the laundry table, and they had good swimming skills, so they were inevitably proud. Shen Qiang was even more bold, trying to swim downstream to the deep water, a few back and forth unharmed, Shen Qiang became more and more proud, so he beckoned Liu Bao and Ergouzi to swim with him to the deep water.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qiang suddenly had leg cramps, and he couldn't move in pain, but he felt that his body was slowly sinking, and he panicked, and his body sank even more. Shen Qiang's heart became more and more panicked, and his hands were even more out of proportion, fluttering indiscriminately, Liu Bao, who was closest to him, was grabbed by Shen Qiang, Liu Bao choked a few mouthfuls of water, and also panicked, faster than Shen Qiang, Shen Qiang let go of Liu Bao and fluttered alone, the two dogs were so frightened that they desperately swam back, and the other teenagers saw it and immediately shouted for help.

The first thin boy rescued by Lu Xiaoyi was the little stammering Liu Bao, who was almost dragged to death by Shen Qiang, but fortunately, the three children were rescued in time thanks to the surplus food.

Shen Pozi and Shen Qiangniang were even more ashamed, his family Shen Qiang hurt Lu Xiaoyi and was lame, Xiaoyi came to the rescue regardless of his previous suspicions, and was almost killed by Shen Qiang, Shen Qiang screwed Shen Qiang's ears angrily and pulled hard, Shen Qiang screamed in pain, Shen Qiangniang let go of his hand and cried bitterly, crying could not hide the fear in his heart.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu Baoniang dragged Liu Bao and were about to kneel down for Lu Xiaoyi, how did Lu Xiaoyi take on it, Yulan hurriedly hugged Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu cried: "Good boy, your life is saved by you, and our Liu family will definitely repay you for saving your life." ”

Shen Qiangniang also pulled Shen Qiang over to thank Lu Xiaoyi, Yulan said: "I know how much ability Xiaoyi has in my family, she is hot-hearted, when she heard that someone fell into the water, she suddenly got into the blood and didn't care about anything, it was also a blessing for them to be able to save Liu Bao, if it wasn't for the grain in Shangxi Village, Xiaoyi and Qiangzi would have seen the king of Hades earlier, let's not say anything, let's go home and pick up, thank the people who should be thanked." ”

The surrounding villagers also nodded yes.

Magnolia walked back with Xiao Yi on her back, and Xiao Ding followed with two baskets of grass behind.

Lu Xiaoyi was thinking about how to explain to Yulan that she would drink water, and thinking of the surplus food, Lu Xiaoyi felt that it was much easier to explain.

Walking to the entrance of the village, Mrs. Lu and her aunt Wang Dongmei also came.

Mrs. Lu looked at Xiao Yi, who was wet, and said hurriedly: "What the hell is going on?" Which bastard pushed you into the stream? He's impatient, isn't he? ”

Lu Xiaoyi saw real concern in Mrs. Lu's eyes, and said with a smile: "I have such a powerful grandmother to support me, who dares to push me into the stream!" ”

Dongmei stepped forward to help Xiao Ding carry the straw basket and asked softly, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?" I heard that the Shen family and the Liu family were flooded, and later I heard that Xiao Yi also fell into the water. ”

Yulan said angrily: "She is getting more and more capable, she can't even shave a dog, and she dares to go into the water to save people, she is impatient." ”

Mrs. Lu also had a dark face, and taught Lu Xiaoyi a lesson: "Little unwitting person, what kind of hero are you pretending, don't you understand?" Those bastards who don't want to die let them see Hades, can you take your own life? ”

Anyway, Yulan and Mrs. Lu really care about her, and Lu Xiaoyi has no intention of arguing, it's just that what she insists on in her heart, she just insists on it silently.

As for Lu Xiaoyi's worry that Yulan would ask her about the water, she was also worried in vain, because Yulan didn't have time to ask about this stubble, so she was busy looking for clean clothes for her to change when she went home, and made her a bowl of hand-rolled noodles with two big poached eggs lying on it.

When Lu Zhong came back in the evening, Yulan complained to Lu Zhong: "Xiaoyi is getting bolder and bolder now, and those boys on the shore who can swim in the water don't dare to go down to save people, she just rushed to go, you said that she couldn't even dig the water with a dog, so she rescued the Liu family kid ashore." ”

Lu Zhong had a different opinion on Xiao Yi's saving people, he said slowly: "Those pigs and dogs will be thrown into the water a few times, not to mention a person, Xiao Yi is so smart, when he mows the grass, he can also watch other people's dogs, okay, don't talk to her, our Xiao Yi's kindness is a good thing, and saving people's lives is even more good and accumulating virtue." ”

Yulan glanced at Lu Zhong, "You think about it, if it weren't for the grain, Xiao Yi would have died, speaking of which, this kid saved our Xiao Yi twice, and he is also a great benefactor of our family, you buy some muslin cloth for Ming'er, and I will make a set of clothes for the child and send it." ”

Lu Zhong nodded, Yulan took out the piggy jar and counted it with Lu Zhong, the donkey carried passengers for three months, and earned two times and two hundred yuan, Yulan put away the two money, and used the rest of the money to buy cloth and households.

The next day, Yulan gave Lu Xiaoyi two fingers, Lu Xiaoyi understood, and before she could shout, Yulan covered her mouth and said angrily: "Do you want to make trouble in the whole village?" ”

Lu Xiaoyi smiled and asked in a low voice, "Mother, has my father made two rounds of money?" ”

Yulan nodded, turned out the piggy jar again, and asked Xiao Yi to count it again.

"Don't yell about this, if others hear it, you will rob your father's business." Magnolia explained.

How could Lu Xiaoyi not know this truth, nodded hurriedly, and weighed the two pieces of money in his palm, "Mother, let my father exchange it for silver another day, copper is too space-taking." ”

"Save up enough for five times and then change it." Yulan put the money jar away, and talked to Xiao Yi about Lu Zhong's passenger business.

"Those who went to the city to buy vegetables and eggs, your father didn't take money from other people's goods, and helped people move up and down, many people waited every day to take your father's car, and after three months, the source of customers was also stable, and there was an income of 20 yuan every day. There is a food store in the city, and you often ask your father to help deliver the goods, and you can also earn a lot of money. Magnolia said happily.

"Mother, the first stubble of chickens hatched by our family is also going to lay eggs, and by the end of the year, the next two stubble chickens can also lay eggs, and then we will sell all the roosters, plus the money from selling eggs, we can save two or three dollars! Let's raise three pigs next year, and then buy some ducklings and geese to raise, and it is best to buy a dairy sheep to raise. Lu Xiaoyi began to plan for the future.

Yulan poked Xiao Yi's forehead and said with a smile: "The duckling and goose can be considered, why buy a goat?" Dairy sheep are certainly not cheap! ”

Lu Xiaoyi rubbed his forehead, leaned on Yulan, and said, "Mother, I heard that goat milk is very good, you see that Xiao Ding is so thin, and Xiao Geng is also growing his body, I think I can let them drink some goat milk to replenish their bodies." ”

Yulan remembered the sad things she had done, and said gloomily: "Xiao Ding has suffered a loss in the confinement, and it is distressing to look thin and small." At that time, you were still young, and your grandmother saw that I had another daughter, and they abused me in every way, and I couldn't think about it, and I washed my face with tears all day long, couldn't eat, and had very little milk......"

Thinking of the scene in the dream, Lu Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel sad, she comforted: "Mother, it's all over, don't be sad about the past, we should look forward." ”

Yulan stroked Xiao Yi's head and said with a smile: "Okay, when your father comes back in the evening, I will tell him to let him pay more attention in the city, and if he encounters a seller of dairy sheep, he will buy it back as soon as possible." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Mother, our donkey must have been tired recently, wait until the end of the year to let my father change horses!" ”

"A horse is not cheap, and when the farm is busy, it is not as practical as a donkey!" Magnolia said.

"Then buy another donkey, and the two donkeys will be replaced by a cart, and it's all right!"

"It's not impossible, let's wait until the end of the year, your father only earned two times, and you just shouted to buy east and west, and it doesn't count the accounts, how much can you use the two dollars?" Magnolia hugged Xiao Yi and smiled.

"Hehe, I call it early planning and early arrangement."

"In less than half a year, we have to buy sheep and horses, so that the people in the village can see it, and you think that you have made a lot of money, so what should you do if you follow the trend? You must remember: the meat should be buried under the bowl to eat, and our family should not be too ostentatious. You are not small, listen to your mother tell you, the tree is big, the wealth is not exposed, the family's money must be hidden, and you can't show off your wealth and sell it in front of people, do you know? ”

Lu Xiaoyi nodded, she still understands these truths.
