Chapter 234 Something Happened

"Mom, this is Cao Ying. Xiaoying, this is my mother, that's my sister-in-law. In fact, when I just stood here and called someone, the relationship was already very clear, but Li Xie still introduced it again.

"Hello sister-in-law." Just called someone, Li Xie introduced it again, which made Cao Ying's heart settle down a little. So her flustered demeanor changed slightly, and after calling Ma Guihua, Cao Ying didn't know what to say.

According to the normal process of visiting someone's house, this is the time to take out gifts. Okay, say some kind words to each other.

But the situation is obviously not in line with this set of processes, Cao Ying did not bring a gift first, and secondly, this is Li Xie's family, Cao Ying is a wife who has been married by the emperor and even made a holy decree.

In other words, this is also Cao Ying's home, and Li Xie's family is Cao Ying's family, and there are fake courtesies with his own family.

Cao Ying didn't know what to say, Yixue stared at Cao Ying with hooked eyes, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became. Li Xie went out for a year and brought a woman back, no matter how stupid Yi Xue was, she knew that the woman in front of her was her daughter-in-law.

Cao Ying looked like she came out of a big family, she was good-looking, and Yixue couldn't be more satisfied. As for being afraid that her son would not be worthy of others, Yixue had never considered this matter.

The serious son of any parent in the world is the best, not to mention that his family knows his own affairs for the time being, Li Xie is the only literate person in this village.

In this small mountain village, the general concept of people is that they can read and write, that is, people who are talented and learned, as long as they are talented and learned, they are very remarkable, and it is not an exaggeration to match any woman.

Most of the people in the small mountain villages have been to the farthest place in their lives, which is a small county town dozens of kilometers away. Knowledge determines their vision, and in their eyes there is no such thing as a family.

In addition, Yixue looks at it with the mentality of elders looking at juniors, so Cao Ying's temperament is outstanding, and Yixue will not feel ashamed of herself.

On the contrary, it was Ma Guihua, on the side, looking at Cao Ying's face and temperament, she seemed a little restrained. Even if this is her home and her home field, Ma Guihua still feels unnatural.

Seeing that the three women were speechless at each other, Li Xie could only open his mouth to break the silence:

"Mom, what are you cooking! I've been hungry all day! This sentence is definitely a big killer for any mother. Especially when such a sentence comes out of the mouth of a wanderer who has returned home from afar.

"Oh~ flowers, let's hurry up and cook the dishes, don't wait for your dad and them. Hurry up and cook it, let's eat it ourselves. As she spoke, she walked to the kitchen, and Ma Guihua didn't seem to have any problem with not waiting for her husband to eat. After answering, he obediently followed.

Li Xie pulled Cao Ying and came to the kitchen door, where Li Xie leaned against the door frame. Motioned to Cao Ying with his eyes and asked her to come in to help. Cao Ying and Li Xie obviously have a tacit understanding, Li Xie just has such a look, and Cao Ying is clear with one action, and understands what he means.

Although Cao Ying was born in a big family, she followed her master to the mountains to study for a long time, and she had already learned to make a fire and cook. However, compared to stir-frying and burning fire to cut things, Cao Ying is obviously a little better.

After all, Xiu Wei is there, and most of the things he holds in his hands on weekdays are knives, guns, halberds, and sticks. This little kitchen knife really can't bother her.

I saw Cao Ying fold her sleeves slightly, and came to Ma Guihua's side: "Sister-in-law, I'll do this." ”

"No, no, I'll do it." Yixue has to cook by herself every day, and of course this chores falls on Ma Guihua's head. Slowly, she became accustomed to thinking that these things were her own business.

In addition, Cao Ying has just come back, how can she let her do these things?

"Sister-in-law, you can give it to her. This little daughter-in-law still has to give a chance to show her performance on the first day she enters the door. Li Xie looked next to Cao Ying and Ma Guihua, and didn't know how to speak. So I said this half-jokingly.

Cao Ying heard that her little daughter-in-law entered the door on the first day and wanted to give her a chance to perform, so she rolled her eyes at Li Xie. But he didn't say much, just stood behind Ma Guihua and didn't leave.

Not long after Ma Guihua got married, these words obviously touched her, but she nodded, handed the kitchen knife in her hand to Cao Ying, and then squatted in front of the stove again and added firewood to it.

During the conversation between Ma Guihua and Cao Ying, Yixue washed her pot by herself, didn't talk to her, and ignored it. Yixue actually wants to see if the daughter-in-law of this fairy-like little son can get out of the hall and into the kitchen.

If the bride doesn't know how to cook, it's her own son who will be uncomfortable. Yi Xue has to start training again. Now it's not a good talk, it's a matter of examining it in advance.

"Mom! What about Big Brother and Dad? It's getting dark now, and they haven't come back yet! "When it gets dark, the mountains are more dangerous than during the day. So if nothing else, this time should be the time to return from hunting.

"Yesterday your brother got a big guy, and they set off to sell goods in the county town before dawn this morning. If you calculate the time, I guess it will take a while to come back. Yi Xue didn't stop with her hands, doing her own thing neatly, and while answering Li Xie's words, she didn't forget to look at Cao Ying with her eyes.

Ma Gui lace has already added firewood, Cao Ying is holding a knife but in front of the cutting board, but there is no sound at all. Yixue will secretly meow over there with the corner of her eye.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, I saw that the kitchen knife in Cao Ying's hand was flying fast, and there was about to appear afterimage. But there was not the slightest sound on the cutting board and between the knives.

There was only the sound of the blade entering the dish, and the sound was very subtle. This operation can scare Yixue enough, and it has been more than 20 years since she married Li Gui.

And since marrying Li Gui to now, he has been at home, and his daily work is sewing and mending and cooking vegetables. When the wealthier families in the village got married, they invited the chefs in the county to come to the village to hold a wedding banquet, and Yixue did not go to help.

But I have never seen such a powerful knife worker, even if the cutting speed is fast, it can also make the knife and the cutting board without colliding and making a sound, which is simply unimaginable.

"Big guy? This season...... Is it a wild boar? Li Xie didn't feel strange at all about Cao Ying's terrifying operation. After all, it is a master-level cultivation, and a sword technique like this can only be regarded as a routine operation, so it is not surprising.

"That's right! There must be more than 300 pounds! Your eldest brother couldn't even carry it back yesterday, so he called his father and two to get it back. Yixue looked at Cao Ying in a daze, and didn't hear what Li Xie was saying at all.

And Ma Guihua didn't see it because of the blockage of the stove. Seeing that Yixue didn't answer Li Xie's question, she opened her mouth to answer.

"That's a big deal. How did you get it? Did you use a trap net? "With the skills of his eldest brother Li Tong, it is absolutely impossible to have the ability to knock down a 300-pound wild boar by hard power, so it is most likely to use a trap.

"That's right! I saw footprints on the side of Denglong Mountain for several days, and your brother thought that he would definitely be able to get them, so it took several days to dig a big pit there. Originally, we wanted to persuade him not to waste our efforts, but we didn't expect him to really get it back. ”

"That's good luck indeed." Wild boars come out to feed, and most of them will arch the floor or chase when they are idle. It's easy to spot its footprints and tracks, but if they don't have a regular crop to lure them, they won't go to the same place for days most of the time.

Li Tong first found the footprints, and spent several days digging a trap there, and then the wild boar suddenly came again, which can only be said to be lucky.

"The blind cat meets a dead mouse, it deserves it, and our family wants to get rich." Ma Guihua was obviously very satisfied, and when she said this, the smile on her face couldn't be hidden.

A 300-pound wild boar is taken to the county to sell, not to mention that there is consistent money, if you save a little use, this winter is estimated to be worrying.

You know, it's just autumn, and the family is ready for winter, which is indeed something to be proud of, at least in this village.

"Mom, if you look at people again, you'll get it." Although Li Xie was chatting with his sister-in-law, his eyes kept paying attention to Yixue's side.

Of course, I found out that Yixue peeked out of the corner of her eye from just now! Cao Ying estimated that the pressure of being watched by Yixue was too great, and the movements of her hands were a little slower.

"What are you going to say? Xiaoying's hands are really skillful. Yixue waved at her son in disgust, and turned her head to Cao Ying is praise.

When it comes to cooking, Yixue may be better than Cao Ying, not so much. But when it comes to knife skills, Cao Ying can definitely crush Yi Xue.

Li Xie was chatting hotly, but Li Gui and Li Tong were pushing the cart that pulled the wild boar in the morning with large bags and hurriedly rushed back from outside the mountain.

Originally, the two of them didn't think about coming back from shopping. But today's luck is really good, after pulling the wild boar into the county, before it began to sell, it was taken by the shopkeeper of a restaurant, and he bought it directly at a price half percent higher.

It was still very early, and there was money left in hand, so the father and son walked around the county casually. They are all people who have never bought much, that is, they feel good about everything, and they want to buy everything.

I didn't know how to spend half of the money from selling pigs today, and after buying so many things, I realized that I had bought too much.

Both of them are honest people, and they don't have the cheekiness to find those merchants and return these things, so they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

Fortunately, in the end, it is still a poor family, and the things bought are those that are useful after all. Otherwise, both of them will be able to regret their intestines. But despite this, the two of them were still panicking.

Yi Xue is in charge of the finances at home, and even if Li Gui went to the county seat before, he would go back empty-handed, and if he really wanted to buy anything, he had to get Yi Xue's permission.

In addition, Yixue does take care of this family quite well, so the family status in this family is still very high. At least if Yi Xue said no, Li Gui and his son didn't dare to squeak more.

Now that half of the money has been spent in a day, and it is still without Yixue's permission, it is the two of them who make their own decisions, and now that the excitement has passed, it is inevitable that they will start to worry and panic.

When people panic, it is easy to have accidents, not to mention that the sky is almost dark at this time, the sun has just set, the moon has not yet come out, there is no light, and the road is black and rumbling. Walking on a small mountain road again, the two of them rushed back as fast as they could.

Li Gui pulled the car and walked in front, and at this step, without paying attention, he stepped on a stone. The stone is round, and it must be slippery for people to step on it, plus Li Gui is in a hurry.

The speed is one or two points faster than usual, and now his feet are slipping, and Li Tong is pushing the cart hard, and under all kinds of coincidences, he can't stand up and slide forward and twist. With a bang, Li Gui could even hear the sound of his own bones colliding, and then the person couldn't stand, a huge pain came from his ankle, and the person knelt down directly.

Now the weight, coupled with the weight inertia of the car behind, even after Li Gui knelt down, the person did not stop and slid forward two steps.

Although the road surface is a dirt road, the sand on it has long been on the road surface because of the perennial walking. It hasn't rained in the past few months, and there have been high temperatures. The mud on the pavement has long since become as hard as a stone slab. The scattered sand on the slate-like ground was really piercing.

Li Gui knelt down, slipped and rubbed forward, and the two knees that knelt down against the ground and the parts of the feet above the neck were all pierced by the sand.

The inertia of the car behind pushed it forward, and the two feet suddenly became bloody and blurry.

A miserable scream came from Li Gui's mouth, and Li Tong, who was pushing the cart behind, reacted that something had happened to his father. Hurriedly stopped the strength in his hand, walked quickly around the car, and ran to the front.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? "Experiencing strong winds and waves, even a small thing, is enough to make people feel panicked. After Li Tong came to the front of the car, he saw his father kneeling on the ground, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and asked in a panic while exerting force.

"Foot, foot hurt, it's a little painful." Li Gui tried his best to endure the burning feeling of fire coming from his feet. gasping for breath, after being helped up by Li Tong, he sat directly on the car board.

Since it was already completely dark, Li Tong couldn't check the details at all. can only touch down in a panic, this is not tight, the sand has already penetrated Li Gui's feet.

Li Tong was so nonsense, he reached out and touched it, undoubtedly rubbing his wound.

"Ah! Turtle son, you don't think your old man died fast enough, right? Li Gui was rubbed by Li Tong like this, and the severe pain made him have no time to think about anything, so he raised his hand and slapped Li Tong on the back of the head. At the same time, he scolded and scolded.

After Li Tong was slapped on the back of the head by Li Gui, as if he didn't feel pain, he took his two hands to his eyes in a panic.

Facing the almost invisible light, he looked carefully at his hands. He saw that his hands were black, and as soon as his hands were close to his face, the strong smell of blood reached his nose.

Li Tong was immediately frightened: "Dad! Bleeding, a lot of blood. ”

"Panic, why can't you kill someone?" I have been hunting for a living all year round, and I have seen a lot of blood, and things like injuries have long been commonplace.

Li Gui could clearly feel that there was nothing wrong with his feet. It's just that this time the sprain is really serious, and it is estimated that I can't get out of bed for ten days and half a month.

As for the places that were broken by the sand, Li Gui didn't care much about it. It's just some skin trauma, the wound is not deep, although it hurts, the fire is burning, but there is no big problem.

"Let's go home first, you pull in front, I'll follow behind."

Li Gui gritted his teeth and stood up again, but the center of gravity of his body was all on his right foot, which was not injured. The sprained left foot, he didn't dare to use it at all at this time, even if it was just quietly placed on the floor at this time, there was still a pinprick pain.

Li Gui gritted his teeth and shook his left foot vigorously. It's a general ligament twisted, so it will naturally be more comfortable and easier to shake it like this.

It's just that when I twisted it just now, I already heard the sound of bones colliding, obviously it was not lightly twisted, just the ligaments were injured, and the bones may have been injured. So this fall not only did not make the situation better, but it hurt even more, and at this time Li Gui didn't even dare to put his feet on the ground.

Li Tong listened to Li Gui's words, pulled the car in front, Li Gui leaned on the car almost the whole person, and stared at the ground with the foot that was not injured to help Li Tong.

The two of them finally rushed back to the village with the car, but before they got home, the people who lived near the entrance of the village saw the two of them from a distance. The light is too dim to see too clearly, but it can be recognized by those who are familiar enough with the figure.

"Brother Gui, you're back! Go home quickly, your son is back. ”

"My son?" Li Gui endured the pain and replied, isn't his son in front? Then he reacted and said that he might be talking about his second son.

"Yes, your son is back, and he brought a little daughter-in-law back, and he looks handsome."

"Li Tong, hurry up!" When Li Gui heard this, he immediately ordered Li Tong to speed up his pace.
