Mei Xiaoba is only in her teens, so naturally it will not be the thinking of men and women, so the rest is not "sympathy"? Gui Chongyang asked, paying attention to Mei Xiaoba's expression.

Mei Xiaoba frowned and said: "The 'black girl' is so pitiful, she called her like a mother and didn't give her food." Once we saw her eating voles raw in the back mountains, so I brought her a few rounds of cakes. ”

Eating voles raw? Gui Chongyang did not feel disgusted, but helpless and bitter.

The Li family lives in a big tile house, tenants out dozens of acres of land, and the whole family is idle, but they enslave the little girl and don't say anything, and they don't even give her food, which is really not humane at all.

"I can't even eat enough, and I still work all day, is it really bad to leave? Maybe it will be sold to other people's homes, but there will be no such torture. Gui Chongyang said.

"Not good, not good!" Mei Xiaoba hurriedly shook her head and said, "If you can't eat enough, just help her, just stay up until you go out; If you are sold, you don't know if you will be able to live in the future...... Someone in Shuijia Village next door was bought into a kiln by his father and mother, and later hanged himself with a rope. ”

A teenage girl, if she buys and sells, she will end up either as a maid or as a prostitute, and naturally the latter can get more money. With the virtue of Li Facai's two families, this possibility is not impossible.

Gui Chongyang was vigilant in his heart, he was still too self-righteous. When he heard that the Qian family arranged Li Tao'er's "father is unknown", he thought about how to find someone to buy Li Tao'er from the Li family, and Li Tao'er in the province was really sold and became a slave. He hadn't thought of the possibility of a brothel before, but this possibility was the biggest possibility.

As the two teenagers spoke, the wild boar had been peeled and began to be cut into pieces.

The Zhang family has a scale, or Gui's second grandfather passed it on to Zhang Da, with this, he will not be fooled if he gets wild meat to send it to the town on weekdays.

Remove the internal organs, pig's head, and pig's trotters, and remove the bones of the remaining pork, and get 222 catties of net meat.

After finishing his work, Second Grandpa Gui sat back on the small bench next to him to wipe his hands and said a few words.

Zhang Da looked at the meat on the ground and said: "According to thirty-one parts, each part is seven catties, and there are five catties left, send two catties to Lizheng's house, one catty and two taels for Meifuzi's family, and one catty for the remaining fourteen taels and three parts, and one for the three village elders." ”

Du Li Zheng did not preside over the hunt, and he was not qualified to distribute the prey, but he couldn't really leave Du Li Zheng alone. As for Mei Fuzi, no matter what his virtue is, he is one of the four village elders of Mujia Village, and he is also the master of the village school, so he naturally has to be respected; There are also three surnames of Li, Gui and Yang, each surname has a village elder, all of whom are old people, and they should also be filial piety out of respect for the elderly.

Naturally, this village elder surnamed Gui has nothing to do with "Xigui", and is a person from "Donggui".

Zhang Dalai distributed the prey, and everyone naturally had no objections. I heard that I could get seven catties of meat, and everyone was already unexpected, and I thought that it would only be five or six catties.

Gui Chongyang came back for half a month, and for the first time saw the simple distribution method of the villagers. Now the wild boar offal has been taken to the kitchen, which is not involved in the distribution, the pork liver is boiled in porridge, and the others are also directly marinated, and they will be eaten by everyone in a while, what about the pig's head and four pig's trotters?

Even if the wild boar has some firewood, it can't stand the size of the pig, and the pig's head and trotters can also shave off a few catties of meat.

But everyone took their share of the meat and left with a smile and went to deliver the meat.

In the summer, the pork could not stand up, and when I went back, I had to wipe the hanging well with salt; Or just fry the partition and cover it with oil, and it can also be saved.

Until everyone was almost gone, no one cared about the pig's head and trotters on the ground.

Mei Xiaoba watched Gui Chongyang staring at the pig's head, and whispered, "Brother Chongyang is hungry for meat?" Let's go up the hill and catch rabbits? Roasted and fragrant! ”

Gui Chongyang pointed to the pig's head and said curiously: "Why don't you distinguish this?" ”

Mei Xiaoba said: "Isn't this left for Uncle Zhang's family?" This is the rule, you can't let people kill pigs for nothing. Speaking of which, I remembered that this was the courtyard of the Zhang family, and it was the second grandfather Gui who could slaughter the pig by hand, so he whispered: "That's Uncle Zhang's family and your second grandfather's family to divide it together, in the end, it is the land of Uncle Zhang's family, and it cost Uncle Zhang's firewood and rice." ”

The smell of stewed meat came from the kitchen, Mei Xiaoba snorted, but walked out: "Brother Chongyang, I'll go back first." ”

Gui Chongyang has been off meat for half a year, and he can't stand it when he smells this fragrance, and as Mei Xiaoba came out, he said: "I'm also going to my house, you haven't been to my house yet, go around?" When my aunt saw you, she rejoiced. ”

Mei Xiaoba's eyes lit up and said, "Sixth aunt is fine, I met it in the town before, and I was given candy to eat." ”

"Then go with my house." Gui Chongyang beckoned Mei Xiaoba to follow.

Mei Xiaoba said "hey", and went with Gui Chongyang happily.

Before I walked to the old house of the Gui family, I heard a cursing voice from the courtyard of the Li family next door: "The little slut who is lazy to death, where is he lazy in the first afternoon, what is this pigweed enough for?" Kill you little slut, you're just as shameless as your mother! ”

Mei Xiaoba's footsteps slowed down, drooped her head and said, "Black girl, her aunt beat her again." ”

Gui Chongyang also put down his footsteps and stood outside the door of Li's house.

There was no other sound than cursing, the sound of a broom being waved, the sound of a broom falling on the flesh, and nothing else.

How did this Li Taoer endure it? There was not even a cry.

Gui Chongyang's heart trembled, he couldn't restrain himself, and took two steps forward and slammed the door hard.

"Who!" The beating and scolding in the courtyard stopped, and Qian asked loudly as he walked over and opened the door.

Seeing Gui Chongyang standing outside the door, Qian raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this the little cub of the Gui family?" What are you looking for? ”

When he was just in the backyard of Zhang's house, the Qian family was still a "slave", bewitching, and when he saw that there were only two milk babies in front of him, he showed his shrewd face.

Gui Chongyang smiled on his face, but his eyes were aimed at the little girl standing in the courtyard.

The little girl drooped her head, revealing a sparse yellow hair, and she couldn't see her appearance. She was wearing clothes that didn't fit well, a patched gown, not a woman's style, she should have picked up her cousin's old clothes and wore them. If I hadn't known in advance, I really wouldn't have seen that this was a girl.

Gui Chongyang glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, smiled shyly, and said, "Aunt Li, my aunt asked me to come over to borrow soy sauce!" ”

Qian's face was immediately full of vigilance, and he said, "For no reason, borrow a bullshit soy sauce?" The little widow of the Mei family, what do you want to make trouble? Wouldn't it be that a man wants to go crazy and fall in love with the old lady's family? ”

In the eyes of this bodhisattva, the world is a bodhisattva; **In the eyes, everyone is**.

Gui Chongyang made another note in his heart, but he pretended to be stupid: "What did Aunt Li say?" It's just borrowing soy sauce. ”

Qian wanted to think about the more wrong, although the two families lived next to each other, but the middle wall was repaired to a height of seven feet, and they did not communicate for more than ten years, how could they borrow soy sauce from this good place?

Did the Gui family want to take the opportunity to find evidence of poplar theft? Or is there some other calculation?

Qian had just been beaten by a fat beating, and it was because he was full of depression that he was angry with his niece as soon as he came back; Now I have other worries, but I can't care about Li Taoer's side, for fear that the Gui family will really find some evidence in their own house, so they immediately raised their voices and said: "No, don't borrow it from other people's families, don't make do with our house, and come to beat you next time!" With that, he immediately closed the door.

Outside the gate, Gui Chongyang's face was expressionless, his ears moved, listening to the movement inside, he listened to the Qian family in the courtyard: "Little slut, don't go to the kitchen to cook, sincerely starve the old lady!" ”

The beating and scolding finally stopped.

Gui Chongyang turned around and saw Mei Xiaoba staring at him with a pair of bull's eyes.

Gui Chongyang smiled and said, "Isn't this a no-fight?" ”

In the end, he explained, I don't want this kid to misunderstand him right now.

Mei Xiaoba said "hehe" twice: "I just feel that something is wrong, this is not a New Year's Festival, who eats dumplings." ”

This time I was confused, and it was replaced by Gui Chongyang, does this eating dumplings have anything to do with borrowing soy sauce?

Mei Xiaoba chirped and said: "It's better to be in town, there are dumpling restaurants, and there are dumplings to eat whenever you go." In the future, Brother Chongyang borrowed soy sauce again and went to our house, and my family has a soy sauce block, a little bit at a time, you can turn half a bowl of soy sauce! ”

Gui Chongyang also reacted at this time, it turned out that the dumplings eaten in the north were dipped in soy sauce, because he was born and raised in Nanjing, and the dumplings there were always dipped in vinegar or sesame oil, but it was the first time he heard of this way of eating.

However, "Dad" is from the north, why hasn't he dipped his dumplings in soy sauce?

Gui Chongyang faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was, so he put it aside first and took Mei Xiaoba into the Gui family's old house.
