9. Operate a water mill

It has been four days since Fu Ba took over the water mill, but there is nothing to do, and no one has come to grind the noodles. It was empty, just his family of four, and the dog. The food has been transferred, but fortunately there is a surplus of food for him, which is only enough for half a month. However, the most worrying thing is safety, and you have to grind the dough as soon as possible, but what to do? He hadn't done it, so he had no idea. There was no news from the blacksmith either, no news from the others. In two days, someone will be secretly observing, will there be something wrong? When he was uneasy, he had a sense of foreboding, and his mind was full of gloom. On the seventh day, it was night, and they all slept, when suddenly they heard a knock at the door. He got up urgently, picked up the crack in the door and saw first, it was Feng Lin, he hurriedly opened the door. Feng Lin stepped in and said hurriedly: "Quick, talk in the secret place, I still have to leave." Feng Lin dragged him back, rushed into the warehouse, and did not let the lights be lit. He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he didn't dare to ask, so he just closed the door. Feng Lin said urgently: "It's too late to elaborate, the blacksmith is fine, you just listen." ”

Feng Lin said: "The imperial eagle dog has come down and has entered the county office, maybe it will be here soon." The blacksmith was the most worried about you, so he made the following arrangements: You have to say that the water mill is yours, and you will buy Liu Heng's. Liu Heng is dead, he is a gambler. Where does the money come from? You have to say that you saved and won in the casino. So you have to go into the casino, recognize people right away, let people know you right away. You also have to go right away, enter the Qianhu Village Casino, which is in the brick and tile field. When you reach the first place, find the owner of Zhang, and then mention me cautiously, I will help you, and I won't mention it later. My family is in Feng Village, and I am the only one, but I have relatives. But the blacksmith said, the most reassuring is you, let you remember me too. After I left, I went elsewhere and arranged business. If we don't see each other in the future, it's my return to heaven. Don't panic, let's talk about you, let the water mill open quickly, go to the south to find someone, all the business owners, please come to grind noodles, the other party must agree, just a procedure. However, the safety of Fangjia's horse road is unmanned, and there is still one for the time being, and it will depend on you in the future. Remembered? Then I'll take my leave. Then he took out the deed, handed it to him, and hurried out the door, and disappeared into the darkness.

It was too sudden, like a dream, Fu Ba urged himself, wake up urgently, and act quickly, otherwise he was afraid that it would be too late. He jumped into the house, woke his wife, and instructed: "The water mill belongs to our family, and if you buy it, you can save the money, and if you win it, you are not allowed to ask." In case someone tracks it down, this is a unified caliber, remember? If you still ask, you don't know, and you will push it all to me, and remember it? It's urgent. His wife was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and he didn't even care about it, so he went out again. After going out, I led the dog in one hand and the whistle stick in the other, and wanted to hurry up. First to the east, into the house horse road, only halfway through, and then climb out. Then to the north, then to the northwest, and then to the northwest, and then it went down diagonally. The brick and tile field is located in an open land, covering an area of nearly 100 acres, south of Fangjia Road, north and beachhead, east of thousands of households, west of Huyu River, under a wide river ridge. The reason why the casino is located here is that it is a place to draw, and second, it is easy to escape. As for opening at night, I still want to escape. The yamen always arrests people, taking the opportunity to make a fortune. In fact, they are still raised, and who are they eating? So he kept releasing the line and secretly informed them. Therefore, the real bookmakers and gamblers are fine. However, it depends on the dealer's ability. Eat it all on both sides, you must have an identity, and you dare to open it, such a person is the owner of Zhangchang.

Fu Ba stood outside the casino, watching down from the high ground. In the snow, the inside and the outside are separated by broken reed mats. Inside the reed mat is a circle of roofed houses, under which are raw bricks and tiles. Between the raw bricks and tiles, there is a snowy corridor, and torches are inserted on both sides. Under the torches, bonfires are lit at intervals, and gambling tables are set up at intervals, arranged in rows. The gamblers walked back and forth, shouting vigorously without moving, and suddenly became crowded. Outside the sea of people, it is the really smart people who bring their business here for all kinds of snacks. Fu Ba noticed that there are two kinds of gamblers, one is that people lead dogs, which means that they are rich, so they gamble and are the most popular. One is the idle gambler, who thinks that the money is small, so he takes advantage of it and runs away, so the flow of people. Fu Ba paid attention again, and wanted to find the owner of Zhang, but he didn't know him, the people inside were very mixed, and it was chaotic, so he had to go in. He carefully picked up the reed mat and got into it carefully, so that he deliberately let the dog bark to make people pay attention to him. Everyone turned around, but they were all surprised, they didn't know each other, they were new faces, and they immediately became vigilant. Three guards rushed over to stop him and asked, "Are you?" Fu Badao: "Friend of the owner of Zhang." If there was no one beside him, he walked in, and the three of them did not dare to stop him, and they saw him leading the dog. In these years, who has the power to raise dogs?

Although he didn't stop him, he followed him, and he flew away alone. Not long after, Zhang Changzhu arrived, hula a group of people left and right, and Fu Ba realized that it was probably him. Seeing the owner of Zhang, he was a red-faced man, but Fu Ba couldn't be sure, so he didn't rush to ask first. The other party had to ask him: "Are you?" He said, "Friend." Zhang Changzhu said: "Friends will go to eat and drink." So the two of them went to the same wine shop. While walking, Fu Ba asked, "Feng Lin has been here?" Zhang Chang was vigilant for a moment, dismissed left and right, and then said: "Come and go." So Fu Ba confirmed, and said loudly: "Tonight, I have a treat, eat meat in a large piece, and drink wine in a big bowl." Zhang Chang laughed and said loudly: "How dare you? You are a guest. The crowd immediately looked at them, smiling at them, and Qi was very envious. However, the two of them did not go to the wine shop, and walked through the crowd, patiently watching. The people around him stammered from time to time, and they all smiled. After a lap, the two went to the biggest gambling table, and the owner said: "It's not easy to come here, how about we bet?" Fu Badao: "It's a pity that I didn't bring any money, just to take a look." Zhang Changzhu said: "Who dares to be afraid that you owe?" It is his glory to owe it. He instructed the dealer: "With his personality, buy all the dry, buy the biggest, and see how it goes." The dealer understood at the time and exclaimed, "Open." "Moving away from the big black bowl, Fu Ba actually won in a daze, or a big win, and I understand. However, the gamblers screamed when they lost, but Fu Ba said: "No, it's a greeting gift." "Huh? Arrogant, the gamblers all exclaimed, hurriedly thanked, and shouted: "I almost lost my life." Someone asked, "Who is this guest?" Zhang Changzhu said: "Who do you care who he is?" Take advantage of it first. The gamblers laughed and said, "Just want to know?" Someone led the dog for him and tied it to the table. The owner of the Zhang field shouted: "I want to be happy again, the two of us are gambling on righteousness, and after the gamble, we will say who he is?" ”

Yes? The whole audience suddenly thundered, and Qi exclaimed, screaming more and more. Who doesn't know? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The so-called righteous gambling is to win without taking money, all of it is spent, half of it is returned, and the other half is distributed to beggars; Those who lose pay out the money to increase their popularity. As soon as the news spread, the whole audience went crazy, and they crowded over, not gambling to see the excitement, but gambling to get cheap. The so-called cheap, that is, what if you want to win? Therefore, one by one, they are gearing up, calculating in advance, and shaking which dealer to follow. I only heard the owner of Zhang Chang say: "I hired someone to gamble for me." Fu Ba also said: "I'll hire the dealer just now." So he started a bet, and the name of the bet was for Ganzibao, that is, to guess the two sides of the copper coin, the front side was the treasure, and the back side was dry. It's all the same, Fu Batong bought it, and once again stated that this was his hobby. I saw that the two dealers took turns to sit in the east, and they also took turns to rotate copper coins. It's still turning, and the black bowl has been buckled. After the copper coin is settled, the gamblers will guess and bet boldly. At this time, someone stepped forward to count who voted how much. When the accounts were settled, they shouted together: "Open, open, open." The shouts shook the sky. As a result, they won separately, lost separately, gambled more than a dozen in a row, and Fu won overall. Some people win big, some people lose big, but they are all excited. Needless to say, the loser expects the money to be returned, and the beggars are waiting to get the money for nothing. Zhang Changzhu said: "Those who have lost and those who have won, can you know why?" The other party's life is strong, he is the famous Fu Ba. ”

"Ah, he?" People were stunned, who hadn't heard of him? He went through the white night, met visions, killed two wolves, met Tian Kui, married a daughter-in-law, how strong that life was, this is convincing. Therefore, when the money is distributed, the owner of the field also advances the money, and everyone is happy. The beggars laughed and said, "It's the turn of the New Year." After the distribution was finished, Zhang Chang said again: "Want to compete with him? He won Liu Heng to death, and the water mill was mortgaged to him. The person exclaimed again, calmed down again, and listened to Fu Ba's speech. Fu Badao: "It's easy to win, but it's hard to keep, so I don't gamble, just take a look." By the way, those who win are advised to stop early to keep it. Zhang Changzhu said: "It's the truth, it's the truth." But the gamblers laughed: "Isn't this a smashing game?" The owner of the field also smiled and said: "Gambling is human nature, otherwise, you won't come tomorrow?" "The gamblers laughed again, really, really, really. So they withdrew from the excitement and went to the wine shop together. As they walked in front, they followed behind, all wanting to see how they ate and drank. The owner of the wine shop was busy entertaining, and sure enough, a large piece of meat, a plate full of vegetables, an old jar of wine, and even a dog was offered meat and bones. Except for the wine shop, everyone was envious, and they were all happy, and they all welcomed it with joy.

The two drank wine and repeatedly set each other. Zhang Changzhu said: "In the future, we still need to help each other. Fu Badao: "That's you at a loss." Zhang Changzhu said: "Isn't this just outside?" No more. Fu Bacai said: "That's just right, it just so happened that something asked you?" Zhang Changzhu asked urgently: "What's the matter?" Will help. Fu Badao: "If you want thousands of households to grind noodles, who should you find the most?" Zhang Changzhu said: "Wang Shouwang? He is the president. Fu Ba thanked him: "Understood, toast." Then he asked, "Do you have any news of the blacksmith?" Zhang Chang said, "Which blacksmith?" I use a lot of iron, a lot of iron. Fu Ba was suddenly excited, and almost caused a big disaster, so he quickly got up his wit and said: "I want to get a few more whistle sticks and hide them in the mill." Zhang Chang said, "What should I do?" Wrap it up for me. Therefore he drank wine again until dawn. At dawn, Fu Ba said goodbye and wanted to go to thousands of households to invite people. When he arrived, he walked one by one first, inviting people, saying that he was giving cheap, but he wanted to recognize people. After all the walks, I finally knew that none of them were the Fang family, and the Fang family was torn apart, so it was safe. He was so happy that he went back to visit President Wang, even though none of them promised him.

President Wang was a Sven man, short and fat, and when he saw people, he smiled first, so he asked him, "Your name is Fu Ba?" One man fights two wolves alone, and two dogs. He smiled too. President Wang said: "My name is Wang Shouwang, you are very smart, and you went to each house first. Let's talk about the rules: we are grinding noodles collectively, and then divide them when we come back, trying to be cheap; As for you, you will be sent back every five to eight days, and you must be on time, and the reward will be the same as before. But now it's very urgent, the noodles are long gone, at least grind five loads of wheat, I'm afraid you can't grind? Fu Ba hurriedly promised: "Yes, thank you President, when will the food arrive?" But the president asked, "But how can you grind without water?" Fu Badao: "There is also dry grinding, and there are many Fu family members." President Wang smiled again and said, "Safety, this time I will send people, but you have to take care of the food, and it will all depend on you in the future." Fu Badao: "It's okay, how long will it take this time?" President Wang said, "Two days, okay?" Fu Badao: "That's enough." President Wang said, "Then hurry back and call people urgently, and the food will arrive immediately." Fu Ba said goodbye happily, so he turned back and straightened out. He was excited and anxious all the way, thinking about asking someone to help.

Hearing the news, the Fu family was all happy that they could eat, so they expressed their position. The eldest brother and the second brother said: "The first test is a test, and you must do a good job." The third brother and the fourth brother also said: "It's not easy, I finally have a clue." The sixth brother said: "It is a happy event for the Fu family." So everyone came, including women and children, except for the fourth sister-in-law, who was sick. For a while, people gathered in the courtyard, and the snow goose didn't know what was going on, so she asked, "Is it the winter wind, can it blow you here?" The second sister-in-law said: "What's the matter, the winter wind can't wake you up, and you still do it?" It's a pity that the eighth brother is not at home, you are not busy in vain? The sixth sister-in-law also said: "Look, it's more porcelain." Are you still so kind to drop two pieces of meat? I really get fat when I drink cold water. The eldest brother said, "I don't have time for you to talk nonsense today, you all work." Only then did Snow Goose understand that when business came, they would work together. The women cleaned, the men unloaded the grinding fan, first the grinding fan, and then the water mill was transformed into a dry mill. The power is only a donkey, and the rest has to rely on people, which is hard work, so it becomes the heaviest work. The grinding fan was unloaded, and the three brothers were busy chiseling the grinding fan, and it became a jingling sound. is still chiseling, the grain delivery person has arrived, drive two carts, and the rest of the people will unload the truck. Thousands of households sighed: "There are so many people, they all look strong." "After the car was unloaded, the thousand families left again, leaving two more guards.

It's afternoon, and I haven't eaten yet, but I'm not in a hurry to eat, so I have to straighten out my life first. So they were grouped, divided into three groups, and all three grinders were used. The eldest brother and the second brother are in a group, considering that there are donkeys and can save effort, so they are responsible for dry grinding. The third brother and the fourth brother, the sixth brother and the eighth brother are each in a group, and they are responsible for the water mill, so they have to be transformed. How to change? The heaviest grinding fan on the upper level is half hoisted so that it can be pushed, so the rocker is set. After the sleeve is set, the lower grinding fan must be fixed so that it does not move, which is just the opposite of the water mill. After the transformation was completed, the dry grinding of the eldest brother and the second brother had already been grinded, and the four of them hurriedly pushed the grinding and grinded nervously. However, two vigilants made an opinion, saying that they were still hungry. So the women went to cook, and the rest was left to the children. In this way, the catalpa baby is responsible for sieving the surface, and the mountain baby is responsible for transporting the bran on the top. At first, they were all brave, but gradually they couldn't keep up. But I didn't dare to be slow, I held on, I was afraid of delay, but I couldn't get busy in the end. Therefore the boredom is mainly hunger, exhaustion, and suffering. But the smell of rice wafted over, first the smell of firewood, then the smell of pulp water, and then the smell of imagination. The adult took the opportunity to encourage: "Today is the big white lasagna." "The kids are just cheering up. Persistence, persistence, persistence, why is it not finished? They all starved to death.

Finally, when it was time to eat, the children ran first and actively served the bowls. Sure enough, I saw a big white wide face, white flowers, thick and tendony. Quickly touched his mouth, but he didn't know how to swallow, and he had gone down. The adults were also nervous about serving the bowls, and they all sucked soundly, but complained: "The noodles are too soft." The women shouted, "No matter how hard it is, the light will flicker." The men laughed, "That's good." The two guards glared at each other and shouted, "How can we eat?" The women said, "Roll out another thin dough for you." But the two said, "Don't worry, watch them eat first." "I saw the appearance of gobbling up one by one, no need to chew, no need to swallow, before I opened my mouth, and the whole white stick went down? And so it became one bowl, two bowls, three bowls, and the fourth bowl, and the women did not offer it. The woman scolded back: "Aren't you afraid of dying?" The men laughed: "Hearty, so comfortable." So he looked for the root of the wall to eat, took the opportunity to bask in the sun, and enjoyed the consumption. Who isn't hungry for a winter? To receive such a gift, we should thank God. The two guards came over and asked them, "I'm afraid, I can't chew or swallow, I can't snore, how can I bear my stomach?" Yet no one paid attention to them, and they still remembered the grace of God. At this time, the woman came out with thin noodles and handed them to them. The two of them took it in their hands, but one of them didn't eat, and he still wanted to talk, and he held back for a long time. He said: "My name is Liu Quan, he is Quwu, a native of Liu Qu Village, and he is the hometown of boxing art, have you heard of it?" Boss Fu thought that his face couldn't hang up, so he said, "It's close." ”

Seeing that someone finally accosted him, Liu Quan simply put down the bowl and asked again: "Do you know the origin of my village?" Fu Lao Dao: "You speak." Liu Bocai said: "Liu Qu used to be called Qu Liu, and it was originally a family with the surnames of Qu and Liu, so it was named according to the surname. The composer has a high boxing skill, so he is in the front. But you listen: Qu Liu Qu Liu, the sound is the same, we are still the hometown of boxing, how can we escape without a fight? So he turned around and maintained the momentum. Everyone laughed, and he laughed. He asked again, "Do you know who my master is?" Fu Badao: "You can talk about it." Liu Quan said: "Hero Liu Er." Do you know why it is called two? The man laughed again, and it was inconvenient to speak. He said again: "Guan Gong is the first, he is only the second." continued: "Actually, my master, ranked second, the eldest died early. Moreover, the two were earned by him. Speaking of my master, he is very famous and powerful. As the so-called punching the Nanshan Tiger and kicking the North Sea Dragon, it is a real hero. The disciples alone are all over the country. Therefore, some people were not convinced and wanted to come to the competition, so they gathered at the hero meeting and saw who was the hero? For a while, post heroes all over the place, inviting heroes from all walks of life. If it is undertaken by our village, you will know the status of my master. Suddenly, the heroes came, even the Central Plains. Who is Nakahara? Swallow Lee. Who is he? The thief who is famous in the capital is also a hero. Do you just listen, Swallow? It is known that he has done a good job. But they all lost to my master, so he changed his name to Yanzi Li San, and he applied to change it himself. But I can't help but ask? He is also a man who has become famous and has a family, so why is he defeated? But all the things in the world lie in mutual reciprocity, and the key depends on who descends to whom? In the competition, he was only to blame, and he made the kung fu of 'swallow pecking the mud and kicking the sky', of course, good kung fu. With this one move, how many heroes will you defeat by taking the lead? Even if it's heroic. But how do I know, my master also used a peerless school, called 'Eagle Coiled Nest, Thousands of Miles Away Without Fear', so he won. ”

Liu Quan said very lively, but he didn't talk about it anymore, and waited for someone to ask. Sure enough, Fu Laosi asked him: "What is the difference between these two kinds of kung fu?" Liu Bocai said: "Let's talk about the former first, I saw Yanzi Li, throwing three pieces of thin mud in a row, and he himself was able to step on the thin mud again in a row, and he wanted to reach the highest top." Unexpectedly, my master has only been in the air, and he has reached the highest peak in advance; He could still wait, wait for him to come up, and then fall down, and hit him with a palm more appropriately, so he knocked him over and fell to the ground. You just think: who is faster and better? Everyone said, "It's your master." Liu Quan said proudly: "That's natural, otherwise why is it two?" The man laughed again. Fu Lao Liu also asked: "Didn't you fight again?" Liu Quan said: "The master has made a move, and he pays attention to the point until the end, which is the rule of martial arts." If there is no injustice or hatred, how can you keep fighting? Fu Lao Liu asked again: "But people come from afar, how can they be willing, not to be ugly?" Liu Quan said: "Either they are all heroes, and they are willing gamblers to lose, and the important thing is to settle the righteousness." It's my master, I've been embarrassed, but it's over. Fu Laosan asked: "But there is still no boss?" Liu Quan said: "Didn't you say it all?" Guan Gong is the boss, and Shandong people don't talk about the boss. Fu Laosan said: "Guan Gong is also the second, and your master is not from Shandong." He said this because he was afraid of delaying his work. Sure enough, Liu Quan was choked and said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this a bar?" Boxing is more than in the country. Fu Ba asked again: "Then how is your light skill?" Liu Quan was embarrassed and said casually: "It's not good, or how can you show people food?" Suddenly regretted it, and hurriedly remedied: "I mainly play darts, attack and strengthen the body, this is the most fundamental." I felt that it was wrong, so I went to serve the bowl. Fu Laosi comforted him: "It's okay for you, you eat a chic meal." Liu Quan was still ashamed and put the bowl again. As soon as he was gone, the people went to work, and they came down in rotation, and the women took the place of the children. So, the second sister-in-law and the sixth sister-in-law were busy sifting noodles, the snow goose was for grinding bran, and the catalpa baby was for grinding bran, and the way of life was really straightened out. Liu Quan came back again, there was no one left, and he was still unwilling, so he pulled the mountain baby over and praised him: "This cowardly baby is a good laborer." Shanwa didn't like to listen, ignored him, and left. This made Liu Quan more and more bored, so he went to the yard and played with darts, but said: "What's the use of practicing this game?" Just rely on us, and the eight heroes don't want to get close. "But who can hear it? It was still boring, so I went to sleep.

In the mill, people are nervous and exert their strength, and today's life is very heavy, and it all depends on hand cranking. However, I was full, so I grew energetic and extraordinarily energetic. Another good thing is that there are many people, and many people are easy to work. I saw that the grinding fan was flying and screaming. It is also seen that the bran noodles are like waterfalls and flowing clouds, flying and steaming straight up. Goodbye, the roller shutters danced, gracefully into floating white smoke. That's the result of the people's war, it's noodles, it's white. And the white smoke turned into mist, and it fell, and it filled the whole land, and it was white, and it became gray, and it became white grain. Therefore, the whole baby of the mountain baby swept the gray surface, and they were very active. Adults are also active, but make way for them. They were all moved, and they were all energetic. But how do you finish sweeping the gray surface? The white mist filled, sprinkled, and then fell. And the ground was white, and so were the people, and the tears were white. The sweat and white face are squeezed into lumps, and they are slimy, and they can't be taken care of. But they all rejoice, and joy is under their feet, so they walk carefully, for fear of stepping on dirty, it is the entrance thing. Then the people were immersed in trembling joy, and they did not feel tired. However, Liu Quan couldn't sleep, and repeatedly came to disturb him, asking many times: "Why don't you rest?" "Who's going to take care of him? There was no time, all the faces were spent, and the man even took off his cotton clothes. And so, for the whole afternoon, no one rested, until it was dark. When it got dark, Liu Quan finally came up with an excuse and asked people: "Do you still want to eat?" Only then did everyone realize that they were hungry. But the task is still heavy, how dare you delay? That can't be helped. Let the women go, cook again, and leave the children to take over. But the child couldn't stay up for a long time, and he wanted to sleep, but he didn't rest.

Finally had dinner, the staple food was a pot helmet, drinking pure noodles and water porridge, with slurry water vegetables. The poor boy was so tired that he didn't eat, and fell asleep with the dishes. Liu Quan finally seized the opportunity and asked people: "You are adults, how can you use children like this?" "It's a good word, no one dares to talk to it, only let the child sleep first. Therefore, when the woman swept the ash by herself, she swept the beams, walls, and ground of the house, and actually accumulated nearly a bucket. The women also finished eating, and they all continued to work, who would dare to snooze? Leave room for tomorrow with opportunities. However, I couldn't do it anymore, and my work was slow, so I realized that there are few people and children are important. So it became a torment, and I suddenly felt a sore back, and the whole result was a violent force. Although, everyone is still brave in their hearts and wants to move forward, but they don't move forward and can't rush out, so they slowly boil up. Boil, boil, do it slowly, and do it too, then look up at the cold star outside the window. The cold stars are clear and beautiful, shining and shining, and tomorrow will be a sunny day. But he heard the wild wind roaring and the owl hissing, and then he realized the desolation of the night. On a bleak night, how many people are still working hard, and how many families are also struggling? Perhaps, someone is crumbling, and the house will be scattered before dawn. Alas, people, just like light and shadow, what does not change is time and space, and once the light and shadow pass, there is nothing left. If it can be a flower, I don't know how good it is, so why bother? It's really hard to be alive, and if you live to be weak, it's the most painful. People want to leave things for future generations, who doesn't want to keep them, but who can? Even if the emperor is a general, it is only his name that remains, but the descendants are killed. Why fight? so that the poor do not have enough to eat. Don't you know that it is the people at the bottom who support you? But it's really not easy for people at the bottom. The people at the bottom are also people, and the people at the bottom also have hope, but how do the people at the bottom live? Busy to the point of a lifetime, there is nothing left, all for you to occupy. But by deprivation, by making rules to deprive, and the rules are always in your favor. Otherwise, we can't feed us? We were never idle. This society, why is this unfair, what year is it a head? They dragged their tired bodies and gasped for breath, so they were shocked into anger, but they didn't dare to stop. So he asked the heavens, and they answered, "Because you are weak." The weak are the weak, and they can't hold it up anyway, and even the donkey is lying down. So I fell down and didn't do it, and I was angry and wanted to go home, so I really went to sleep.

However, I didn't dare to sleep steadily, and I got up early. He also woke up the children and went to work again. But when I didn't work, I realized that the mill was dull. Just grasp the unloading, nervously chisel the grinding fan, and then jingle into a ring. Liu Quan and the others couldn't sleep, they were very annoyed, and shouted: "Don't let people live, so early?" "But no one cares about them, you sleep, we work. By Pingming, all three mills were replaced, but they were all hungry again. So cook, and then busy the children. But after all, it's a child, it's hard to keep up, and there are too many bran. It was dawn before I was nervous to eat, and everyone had strength. It was still a freshly chiseled grinding fan, and the mill was screaming again. Suddenly, the wind whistled like rain, and the house was completely white. Therefore, it is misty, confused, and the white clouds are rolling. But no one swept the dust, and the time was tight, so I was afraid of delay. However, the sun is also urgent, one shot, three shots, and soon close to the top of the head, but the task is still heavy. So I didn't dare to breathe, and I was even more afraid of the lack of strength behind me, so I was more anxious. At this time, Liu Quan walked in and said, "Life is important." The woman said, "The rice is in the pot." Liu Quan just got up, and then went to eat. As soon as they finished eating, the woman cooked again, and the two said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" We're done eating. ”

Lunch is still slurry water, white wide noodles, this time it is too hard, and there are spicy ones. The man laughed: "Rich like a rich man." "The big clay pot is placed in the courtyard, although it is fished, it is full of food, this time the woman does not stop, I want to adapt. Liu Quan just looked, the hard face was hard, and it didn't flash on the chopsticks. The two looked at each other in shock, but the diner was very happy, and the two said, "Thank you for eating." This time, everyone took the initiative to respond to the two and said, "It's enjoyable, hearty, and comfortable." "When the men have eaten, they consume it. The woman took the opportunity to sweep the ashes, and for fear of adding conflict, she swept it a few more times. When the woman came down to eat, it was also a rumbling face, Liu Quan said: "This is also called a woman?" "The man worked first, but when he thought of it, the donkey was lying down and couldn't get up. It happened that the seventh brother arrived, it was too timely and too amazing, so they all asked him: "Where did you go in one winter?" "Brother Qi only smiled, didn't speak, and then he was busy eating, so he had to work first. In fact, he was both excited and ashamed when he met **. I was excited to report the good news, I was ashamed to get out of Hutou Mountain, and I became a father all of a sudden, so I asked for help. As soon as Brother Qi got started, he was replaced like a knife, and the progress was immediately pushed up. However, winter is too short, time is still tight, and it is almost dusk. But there are still the last three buckets, which can't be finished no matter what, and the strength of the people is exhausted, except for the seventh brother. In this way, there were many conflicts, and they were all in a hurry, and the deadline was approaching. Therefore, they all panicked, and the more panicked they became, they simply sat down, relying only on their hands, and their waists and legs were about to break. However, if you can't lift your hands, it becomes perseverance. It's getting dark, it's getting darker, it's getting darker, it's still not finishing, and it's rushing desperately. Finally finished rushing, and the people also took it off, and only then did they dare to gasp, it was already the middle of the night. At this time, Liu Quan jumped in, but said, "Hurry up?" What are you doing? "People have just gotten up, shivering to close their faces, struggling to tie their pockets, and the extra women finally sweep away the ashes. Liu Quan came over again, opened his pocket, and poured two liters of white noodles on the ground. Everyone was surprised and screamed, "Don't you dare? Cannot. Liu Quan said: "How can you eat just the soil noodles?" Whoever made me an overseer, I can't work in vain. "What do you mean? The noodles were also dirty and could not be replaced, so I thanked him. Suddenly, the men bravely loaded the car, washed their hands, washed their faces, and finally put on the mules that drove them. The women are full-time dust sweepers, what a pity. Therefore, on the beams of the house, along the wall, holding the grinding plate, running the ground, all sweep how many times. In the last episode, there were two and a half buckets, plus two liters of Liu Fist, and there were actually three buckets. There is still a bowl and a half of wages, and the purest white noodles are all happy.

Food was then delivered, and all the men were escorted, including the children. are also willing, this is the escort fruit, so it is comfortable and refreshing. Out of the courtyard, the night sky was dark, there was no moon, only cold stars, quiet and mysterious. However, he couldn't see the ground clearly, and he just raised a torch and was still in his head. But following the car, walking, by feeling, it is also very reassuring, and the ground is very flat. However, the snow was very deep, burying the feet, and it was cold in an instant, so that all the sweat was collected, and I suddenly felt cold. But it's relaxed, no burden, and that's how you can feel the beauty of the night. I saw that Hutou Mountain looked more and more like a fierce tiger and a black bear. On the bear's back, there is the night sky, which goes straight to space, and then presses back to the human cheek. I suddenly felt that the universe was vast and the sky was vast. In the vastness, the people are gone, the small ones are powerful, and they are nothing. Suddenly, the wild wind rose, wanton and violent, and it hurt people's lives. When the music is still played, I listen to the crackling sound, and the dry branches break, which intensifies the misery of the night. Everyone bowed their heads nervously, shrunk back, and wanted to walk quickly, before they got on the Fangjia horse road. But it was even colder, and the wind became a stream, squeezing the passageway, and for a moment he did not dare to open his eyes, and blew out the torches. But a road, still by feeling, all strive for a cart, over the snow is deep. When the eyes are closed, the stronger the sound, the more ear-grabbing the horse taluan bell is, jingle bell, jingle bell. But I didn't care, I fell asleep, and I fell asleep while walking. Only then did they stumble, stumble, and move forward groggy. The only one who has the spirit is Liu Quan, who jumps up and down, does his duty, and is more vigilant outside the horse road. It seems that thousands of households have invited the right person, Fu Ba didn't dare to sleep, so he thought so.

Sure enough, there was movement, and in the distance was a dark shadow, and then it disappeared beyond the wall. Liu Quan was immediately vigilant and asked, "Who?" Everyone woke up, and Liu Quan also pulled out the darts. The other party replied: "I, Yunfei." Liu Fist said, "Oh, flying harrier, senior brother." Everyone absorbed the cold sweat and was relieved that it was the other party who took it. Yunfei asked again: "Why is it so long?" Liu Quan said: "It's been so long." As soon as the words fell, the car sank again, but fortunately there were many people, so they all lifted the car. The car was lifted out, returned and left, and finally approached the moat. There were still people in the moat, all holding torches, to meet them, and the firelight ran away and went to the ice. It's really safe, and everyone is relieved, so they cross the moat. As soon as he crossed the river, Yun Fei said, "Stay and wait outside." The rest of the people waited outside, and only Fu Ba went in and handed over. The car is deep in the alley, so the dog bites, roars into a slip, and the competition is more majestic than the majesty. In the end, when I came to a courtyard, there was a special person to receive it, and there was also a special person to unload the grain, so that the delivery was completed. After a long time, Fu Ba came out again and said to everyone: "The second business will be in seven days." Everyone was happy, and then they hurried home, and it was dawn when they got home.
