Chapter 56: The thatched house is burned
This time she made a strange fish, a different taste, it was the tempeh bought in the last market, this tempeh is very fresh, and it is not too perfect to make grilled fish!
When the grilled fish was brought out, Zhao Mocheng, who had just put down his rice bowl, swallowed another mouthful of saliva.
Staring at the grilled fish on the plate, he asked a little stupidly, "Why doesn't it smell the same?" ”
"Well, it was spicy just now, and this time it's tempeh." Yun Xiaoshuang replied.
"In that case, I'll try it again for you." Zhao Mocheng said and picked up the chopsticks.
"Brother, didn't you just say you're full? How to eat again! My father and sister-in-law and I haven't eaten, and you're done eating, what are we going to eat! In the past, Zhao Hong did whatever Zhao Mocheng said, but she decided that she still had to grasp the food herself, otherwise, she would only be able to gnaw fish bones.
Zhao Mocheng put down his chopsticks in a daze: "In this case, you can eat more." ”
Yun Xiaoshuang looked at this just past noon, just took this opportunity to go to the mountain again, counting the time, the winter bamboo shoots should also be born, if you can, it is best to go to the deep mountains to take a look, if it has not been excavated, the more valuable the things inside must be.
Wait until after eating.
Yun Xiaoshuang hooked Zhao Hong to the mountains, Zhao Hong used to say something, and now, she can be regarded as admitting Yun Xiaoshuang's ability, she must be able to protect herself well, and there is no superfluous nonsense, Yun Xiaoshuang will do whatever she wants.
"Let's go, come with me to the mountains?"
Yun Xiaoshuang raised her eyebrows, looked at Zhao Hong nakedly, and almost carried her directly on her shoulder, and then brought her in.
Zhao Hong didn't react at first, and responded casually: "Okay." ”
When Yun Xiaoshuang heard this, she was immediately surprised and dragged Zhao Hong to the deep mountains.
When the shade of the trees was almost overshadowed, and the birds in the mountains were even brighter, Zhao Hong came back to her senses in shock, didn't she follow Zhao Hong into the deep mountains, and suddenly the expression on her face wrinkled, looking at Yun Xiaoshuang, she didn't dare to move forward: "Sister-in-law, why did you bring me here?!" ”
"Didn't I just tell you?" Yun Xiaoshuang was a little strange, didn't this Zhao Hong take what she said to heart at all? Is that what it means?
"I thought you were going to take me to find some bamboo rats and some noisy frogs, but I didn't expect you to go here." Zhao Hong lowered her eyebrows, she was about to cry, she trembled and looked around: "Sister-in-law, you see that I feel eerie here, and there are bats barking, maybe there will be some poisonous snakes coming out later......"
"It's almost winter, and this poisonous snake should have hibernated." Yun Xiaoshuang interrupted her: "In this deep mountain, the more people dare not come, it means that there are more things in it, and we may be able to bring some good things back at that time." ”
"......" Zhao Hong was slightly stunned, and said with a crying voice: "I don't even have my life, what's the use of bringing back no matter how good things are?" ”
Yun Xiaoshuang said that she couldn't refute this sentence, so she could only compromise.
"Okay, okay, I'll take you out, can't you?" Yun Xiaoshuang sighed, and could only pull Zhao Hong back.
"Ahh Zhao Hong stepped on a cave, and the hairs on his whole body immediately stood up, looking at Yun Xiaoshuang's expression as if he had eaten something, frowning, and almost crying: "Sister-in-law, what is this, you help me take a look, I don't dare to look at it." ”
Zhao Hong closed his eyes and looked like he was at home.
Yun Xiaoshuang sneered: "It's nothing, it's just a small hole." ”
"Ahh Zhao Hong jumped up in fright when he heard it: "Then there must be snakes in here!" ”
Yun Xiaoshuang looked at the place where Zhao Hong had just stepped on, and was also shocked, it seemed to be hollowed out, she took a wooden branch and came over to dig a hole.
Zhao Hong stood beside her and struggled.
I can't believe it, aren't there some thunderbolts in this?!
She dug some more underneath, almost stunned herself, there were so many of them, she took them out one by one and put them into her bamboo basket, and said excitedly: "Xiaohong, I didn't expect you to have the life of Wangcai!" ”
"What?" Zhao Hong was at a loss by what she said, and saw her put a piece of black stuff like a donkey's egg into the bamboo basket, thinking she was stupid: "Sister-in-law, you won't be stupid, right?" What are they? ”
"This is Wuling ginseng, also known as Lei Zhenzi, is a rare and valuable medicinal material, if it can be used in medicine, it will help some diseases, I don't know if anyone on the market knows?" Yun Xiaoshuang said with a smile, thinking to herself, this Lei Zhenzi may still be good for Zhao Mocheng's condition.
When I go back, stew a pot of chicken soup and add this, it will definitely help Zhao Mocheng a little, as for the more, look at the market and collect it?
If you don't take it, stay by your side, just in case.
Zhao Hong frowned, as if she felt that Yun Xiaoshuang was talking nonsense, she had grown so big, and she had never heard of such a medicinal herb as Wuling ginseng.
Yun Xiaoshuang is considered to have returned with a full load.
Before I got to the front of the house, I saw smoke rising repeatedly, and it was reasonable to say that I should have to dodge, but everyone seemed to be watching a play, just watching quietly, and I didn't see them helping.
Zhao Mocheng has been pushed out by Second Uncle Zhao and Second Aunt, and there are marinated sausages beside him, probably to minimize the loss.
Seeing Yun Xiaoshuang coming, the villagers took the initiative to get out of the way, but she didn't pay attention to it at all, and directly pushed Zhao Mocheng and the second uncle and aunt of the Zhao family, Zhao Hong took something and followed aside, and was about to leave.
Zhao Hong naturally couldn't control the anger in his heart, and obviously saw Yun Xiaoshuang's hinted gaze, but he still had his hands on his hips, his face was full of heartache, tears welled up, and he stared at the crowd: "Who set the fire, stand up for me!" ”
Second Aunt Zhao pulled Zhao Hong and said in a low voice: "It was when I wanted to boil some water just now, I accidentally went to do something else and then the fire jumped out, and then set the house on fire, we wanted to put out the fire, but it turned out to be really bad, the wind was blowing very strong, and it suddenly burned." ”
Although Zhao Hong didn't believe it, but Aunt Zhao admitted that it was herself, what else could she say?
Fortunately, their new house is almost finished, and it is not even a shelter from the wind and rain.
After getting there, Yun Xiaoshuang didn't speak, fortunately she brought back the toilet or something last time, and then the two bathrooms were installed, she went in to wash her hands, and never mentioned that the house was burned.
How could Zhao Hong endure it?
"Mother, you are usually cautious in what you do, how could you accidentally burn down the house at home?" Zhao Hong couldn't believe it: "Have you forgotten something?" ”
"No, it's true that I was careless, I was boiling water just now, and then I thought about it for a while, added firewood, and then went to wash clothes, but I didn't expect to suddenly hear your father calling me, and then I pushed Mocheng out, thinking that the family was worth some sausages, so I rescued those first, and when I went to put out the fire, the fire was not very big, but why it burned more and more, I don't know, and finally the fire was out of control." Second Aunt Zhao also had frustration on her face, and when she thought of the pain, she slapped herself twice: "It's all my fault, I should have watched the fire well, and I shouldn't think about being lazy and washing the clothes together!" ”
Yun Xiaoshuang frowned, the fire is getting bigger and bigger?
How can it be?
It is said that the fire was put out in time, and the fire is not big, so how can it be that it is useless to water it?
"Second aunt, have you seen anyone come to our house?" Yun Xiaoshuang finally spoke, frowning and asking.
Second Aunt Zhao shook her head: "Definitely not, I washed the clothes at the door, how could someone enter the door and I didn't see it?" ”
"What if it's going around the back door?" Yun Xiaoshuang asked, there is a small courtyard at the back of their house, in order to facilitate access, there is a door connected to it, which just happens to be able to enter the kitchen, but how it will catch fire, no one knows.
"By the way, mother, isn't there another small wooden door under our stove? You usually cover the fire, but if you do, there will be no sparks coming out, are you sure you cover it this time? Zhao Hong's eyes flashed and asked.
Second Aunt Zhao fell into deep thought, and suddenly thought of the question: "Yes, I usually cover it, but it usually doesn't be like this, could it be that the wooden board has been dried for a long time, and some fire has come out and burned it together?" ”
Yun Xiaoshuang frowned: "Could it be that someone set the fire?" ”
"Impossible!" Second Aunt Zhao waved her hand again and again: "This house is our life, everyone is a poor family, how can you do such a black-hearted thing?" ”
This matter, no matter how it came to fruition.
Yun Xiaoshuang waved her hand: "Okay, let's not talk about this for the time being, fortunately, we just have a house here now, and it is not a problem to live in the rain." ”
"It's just that the furniture hasn't been prepared yet, so I'll let you hurry up tomorrow, and then we'd better move to the inn for a few days, and when it's almost finished, we'll come back, how about it?"
"And what about these things?"
Zhao Hong frowned.
"Otherwise, put it in the Qian family, her relationship with our family is quite good, and she usually receives our favors, last time because we made bad money, the Qian family is also kind, borrow a few days, it should be okay, right?" Second Aunt Zhao said.
It's really Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived.
Qian held a bamboo basket in his hand, put some food in the basket, handed it to them, and asked with a face full of embarrassment: "Second Uncle Zhao, second aunt, your house is burning down now, why don't you go to our house for a few days, and when this house is almost full, you will come back, okay?" ”
Originally, Second Aunt Zhao was going to say that she would leave things at her house, but since she said so, she naturally would not object, so she nodded, her face full of gratitude: "Sister-in-law Qian, thank you so much." ”
"No matter what we say, we are all neighbors, and besides, you didn't help me and our family before, and I should have come to thank you, but this time, we thank you very much, don't be polite." Qian couldn't speak, and lowered his head a little shyly.
People have come to invite, what reason do they have not to go?
The family of five temporarily lived in the Qian family.
