Chapter 65: The Trouble Brought by the Fox
Chapter 65: The Trouble Brought by the Fox
It's pitiful enough to be able to say anything to the fox.
The damn fox didn't run for a day without a trace.
In the middle of the night, it suddenly rained, which was basically not rain, it should be regarded as ice slag falling from the sky, and the cold was terrible.
The fox still didn't come back, Tie Xinyuan was already a little worried, and when he came to the yard, he found that the ground was wet, but the wood shed was half-melted ice......
Tie Xinyuan squatted on the edge of the hole under the courtyard gate and waited for the fox, he didn't understand how the fox, who had always been afraid of the cold and lazy, could run around on such a day?
I touched this guy's nest just now, and it was cold inside, but the food it was hiding behind the nest was gone.
Tie Xinyuan scratched his head and wondered, could it be that this guy ran away from home?
"Hasn't the fox come back yet?"
Wang Rouhua stood at the door holding an oil lamp and asked.
Tie Xinyuan shook his head and said, "No! ”
The wind blew the flames on the oil lamp swaying, and Wang Rouhua hurriedly put the lampshade on, but then the light in the yard became hazy.
A big wet tail came in first, followed by the fox's body, and the guy didn't know what he was dragging and struggled backwards into the yard.
It seemed that something was stuck on the other side of the hole, Tie Xinyuan hurriedly opened the courtyard door, only to find a dilapidated bamboo basket outside the door.
There are a few furry things wriggling inside the bamboo basket.
Tie Xinyuan was overjoyed, turned back to his mother and said, "Mother, the fox has given birth." ”
Wang Rouhua said angrily: "Our fox is male, what kind of cubs can it have?" It's all nonsense. ”
When the fox saw that Tie Xinyuan helped it carry the basket, he let go of his mouth, flicked his big tail and looked at the basket eagerly, and even grabbed Tie Xinyuan's clothes with his paws.
Tie Xinyuan quickly carried the basket into the house, and the fox followed behind without leaving, if it weren't for the fox's cub, it would be a strange thing.
"It looks like a dog, right?"
Tie Xinyuan asked his mother uncertainly.
Wang Rouhua gently pulled the little cub in the basket and said affirmatively: "This is originally a dog." ”
Tie Xinyuan looked at the fox who was carrying the top melon skin of the puppy to his nest one by one and asked, "Can the fox give birth to puppies?" ”
Wang Rouhua looked at the scorched place on the bamboo basket and said: "Today, Maijia Hutong is flooded, and I heard that the entire Hutong has been burned by a fire.
People who are freezing have nowhere to go, these dogs may be discarded puppies, since the fox can be dragged back, it means that the big dogs are gone, these puppies have not opened their eyes, and they can't be raised. ”
"You can live by feeding milk." Tie Xinyuan saw that his mother had already set the fate of the puppy, and hurriedly said.
"If it's spring and summer, it's easy to find milk, but now it's winter, where do you go to find milk? Even royalty doesn't serve milk in the winter. ”
"There will always be a handful of goats?"
"Silly son, there is no forage to feed the sheep in winter, and the dairy sheep only eat hay and cannot produce milk, even if they produce milk, the sheep will die of emaciation in the winter, which farmer is willing to do so?"
"Then find a wet nurse...... Boom"
Tie Xinyuan grinned and rubbed his head, his mother's fist just now was very heavy.
"Don't spoil people from there!"
"We'll give you money...... Oops, why hit me again. ”
"Hmph, if you let people know that you take human milk to feed dogs, believe it or not, you will be punished by Kaifeng Mansion tomorrow?"
Tie Xinyuan looked at the puppies who kept digging under the fox's belly to find milk and said to his mother: "Then I have to find a female dog with milk, you see how pitiful they are looking for milk on the belly of a male fox." ”
"You can boil some millet and feed it with rice oil, as for finding a female dog with milk, it is not an easy task, and even if you find it, the female dog may not be willing to feed these puppies, and her own children will not be able to raise it."
However, this is a matter for you and the fox brothers, and it has nothing to do with being a mother, anyway, you have been idle lately, so it's okay to find something to do. ”
After Wang Rouhua finished speaking, she left Tie Xinyuan's house very irresponsibly, yawned and went back to her room to sleep, with this eccentric son, she didn't need to worry about this matter.
In the cold night, Tie Xinyuan wanted to go to sleep with a hard heart, but he couldn't stand the pitiful eyes of the fox who kept looking at him, so he had to grit his teeth and turn on the fire again, find a pot and start cooking millet porridge, and the thought of boiling rice oil made him want to die.
Tie Xinyuan would rather the fox get a female dog as a wife than this guy get six puppies to harm him.
With sleepy eyes open, he finally boiled the millet porridge, carefully scraped out the layer of rice oil on it, and poured it into the fox's food bowl, before he began to scratch his hair in pain, and the puppies couldn't eat on their own......
Finding a clean brush, Tie Xinyuan hugged a puppy angrily, and fed the puppy one by one...... He is going to send these puppies to the coop alley tomorrow at dawn and hand them over to the little girls to take care of......
At dawn, Wang Rouhua stretched her waist and walked out of the room, first looked at the puppy that was sleeping under the belly of the fox, and then looked at her son who was sleeping unconscious, laughed twice, and left the house after washing.
"Toot, toot, toot......"
The little princess blew the whistle very hard today, her little face was flushed, and she didn't know how long it took before Tie Xinyuan walked out wrapped in a small quilt and looked at the princess helplessly.
"Ha, lazy worm, I haven't gotten up yet, I've finished my professor's class."
"My husband's head was smashed by tiles, and it is estimated that he will not be able to go to school for several days, so I have good news for you, the Qianqiu Festival gift you prepared for your father has begun to be made, I promise, your father will like it."
The little girl clapped her hands happily and said, "Okay, good, the golden armor father will definitely like it very much, and the mother concubine will not blame me for spending money indiscriminately."
Did you know? The concubine wants to check my dowry box today, and I have fooled it over. ”
Tie Xinyuan said with a dark face: "I thought you could call the shots yourself." ”
The little princess smiled: "If the mother concubine asks again, I will say that I lost it, and I will not recruit you no matter what." ”
"In that case, the palace maids and grandmothers who serve you will be unlucky."
"No, I'll protect the little beads, hey, fox, how are you?"
Feeling that something was pulling the quilt, Tie Xinyuan looked down and saw that the fox was pulling himself again, needless to say, the group of dogs in the fox den were hungry again.
"Hey, stinky fox, why don't you ignore me." The little princess lay on the battlement and tried to poke her body out, Tie Xinyuan was very worried that she would fall, but fortunately, there was a little palace maid holding her dead in the back, which made Tie Xinyuan feel at ease.
"Our fox uncle picked up six puppies from somewhere last night, and I cooked rice soup and scraped rice oil to feed them all night...... I'm going to die ......"
"Puppy?" The little princess's eyes suddenly widened, and she stretched out her chubby little hand and said urgently: "Your family is so fun, my family doesn't have such a good thing, hurry, hurry up and take it out and show me." ”
Tie Xinyuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his head and asked the little princess: "Do you have cow's milk at home, the puppy is too small to eat anything else." ”
The little princess opened her mouth proudly, and she could even see her trembling little tongue: "Yes, yes, there are many, my father's share has been rewarded to me, I have a lot, I can't finish drinking." ”
Tie Xinyuan scolded extravagantly, and then ran into the house, put all six puppies into a basket, and saw that the fox also jumped in, so he had to drag them out of the house with great difficulty.
A ribbon had already hung down, Tie Xinyuan tied the ribbon, and the fox and the puppy were dragged up by the princess and the palace maids.
Tie Xinyuan heard the sound of the bang from above and seemed to have exploded, needless to say, the princesses and palace maids on the city wall lost their minds with joy.
"Can you give me one?" The little princess had an infinite longing gaze, and she couldn't tolerate Tie Xinyuan's refusal at all.
"Are you sure you are allowed to have a dog in the palace?"
The joy in the eyes of the little princess slowly faded, kneading the handkerchief and tears were about to flow out, raccoon cats can be raised in the palace, but dogs are not allowed, this is a strict prohibition in the harem!
Tie Xinyuan smiled: "It's okay, I can raise dogs at home, which one you like can just pick it out and put it in my house, you just need to come over and feed them a few times a day, as long as you like it, you can see them every day." ”
The little princess immediately burst into tears and laughed, wiped the corners of her eyes embarrassedly and said, "I'll let Xiaozhu'er go and bring the milk, there is bee candy in it." ”
Tie Xinyuan, who hadn't eaten breakfast, couldn't help licking his lips, and the little princess immediately warned Tie Xinyuan precautionarily: "I can't give it to you, cow's milk is puppy food." ”
"I don't drink!" Tie Xinyuan said angrily: "You'd better find some clean brushes dipped in cow's milk to feed the puppy, it's too itchy to feed the puppy with your fingers." ”
"Got it." Seeing that the goal was achieved, the little princess ignored the iron heart source under the city wall and was busy taking care of the puppy.
Tie Xinyuan yawned, wrapped the quilt again and went into the house to sleep, although the winter rain has stopped, but the cold is as sharp as a knife, the little princess is wrapped like a ball, she doesn't have those equipment, it is better to go back to the house with a stove to sleep.
Threw a few pieces of charcoal into the stove, listening to the whirring sound from the chimney, Tie Xinyuan lay down again satisfied, Xiao'er's craftsmanship is good, with such an iron stove in winter, it will be as warm as spring immediately, and the earth dragon in the palace is nothing more than that, right?
No, the earth dragon in the palace has not been burned for a long time, I heard that in order to save money, the emperor is reluctant to drink even a bowl of mutton soup in the middle of the night, how can he allow the palace to burn that kind of earth dragon that costs an astonishing amount of money?
Shouldn't this thing also be given to the little princess? Lest she get charcoal when she sleeps at night, it's a terrible thing, I heard that whether it is the palace or ordinary people's homes in the winter for heating, there are a few people who are killed by charcoal.
