Chen Ping gave the key to the small wooden cabinet to Chen Xiaoyi, and Chen's father touched it in a gap by the blue brick, pinched the key head, and brought it out.

"Grandpa, I'll help you count." Chen Ping squatted down and helped Chen Xiaoyi count five baht coins, one thousand and twenty yuan, which is not less.

After counting the money, Chen's father went to get the sack again, packed it, and carried it on his back.

"Go, don't make a sound." Like thieves, the two men went out of the courtyard, and Chen Xiaoyi walked next to the courtyard root.

Chen Ping took the courtyard door and followed behind Chen Xiaoyi.

When we arrived at the blacksmith's house to the east, the fire was still on, and the blacksmith was polishing the zigzag plow, and he had not slept for a while.

"Why are you here?" Chen Hecai put down the grinding stone in his hand, and saw that Chen Xiaoyi was still carrying a sack behind him, "What's in it?" ”

"Let's talk about it when we come inside." There was a heavy load of more than 1,000 yuan on his back, Chen Xiaoyi was panicked in his heart, it was not a matter to stand on this road, so he was urging quickly.

When the three of them entered the house, Chen Xiaoyi saw that the door was open, and asked Chen Ping to close the door, and then put down the sack on his back.

The mouth of the bag was loosened, revealing the copper coins inside, Chen Hecai lit the oil lamp, came over, and picked up one by one, put it in his hand and weighed it a few times: "The edge is smooth, and the amount is right, this is the real five baht, where did you get so much money?" ”

"This is for you." Chen Xiaoyi said, "Didn't you hit the fire sickle?" My eldest son sold those fire sickles in the county, and the money he earned, and this is your share. ”

"Grandpa is right." Chen Ping saw Chen Hecai's eyes and nodded.

Chen Hecai was a little confused and asked, "This is not right, isn't it only thirty Wen?" How can there be so many of them this time? ”

Thirty essays are a lot in Chen Haocai's opinion. After all, the broken iron pieces left over from the striking iron, except for the return to the furnace, are really worthless.

There are not a few dots scattered in this sack, and it is estimated that there are nearly a thousand words.

"Thirty wen is because only three sets of fire sickles were sold, and this time they sold a lot, so they got so much money, there are a thousand and twenty wen. Uncle Blacksmith wants to count? Chen Ping said with a smile.

"Don't count, I trust you." Chen Hecai said, poured out the money in the sack, and sighed, "Erniu will have to rely on you to take care of it in the future." ”

"Uncle Blacksmith, don't worry, Erniu will follow me, and I will treat him like Chen An." is from the same village, and they are fighting together, Chen Ping treats him as a friend.

"Yes." Chen Hecai also saw that Chen Ping was relieved, so he instructed, he was busy striking iron, and he took poor care of Erniu, and now with Chen Ping's help, he was much more relieved, and when he saw that Chen Ping's father and son were going out, he remembered something again, "By the way, the child of Chen Chong's family, you don't have to pursue it." He has a lot of children in his family, and it is not easy. ”

This is when Chen Hecai said it at Chen Ping's house, he saw the change in Chen Ping's eyes and guessed it.

The child of Chen Chong's family came to him to play the trap, but Chen Ping didn't know it, and the trap was Chen Ping's idea. There was no contradiction during this period, and Chen Hecai really didn't believe it.

"It's not easy for anyone." took his own things, and didn't say anything to himself, does this Chen Shun really think he is a little madman? If you don't teach me a lesson, how can you mix it up in this village, "Don't worry, Uncle Blacksmith, I know how to measure." ”

Wen Qian was sent out, and when he went out, Chen Xiaoyi's heart was not so worried, and he no longer walked at the foot of the wall, and he was also able to walk in the village road, and he was quite spirited.

"What happened to the blacksmith just now, Chen Chong's child?" Chen Xiaoyi now feels that he has to care about his eldest son's thoughts, otherwise he may not deviate to what extent, he will provoke his father-in-law and daughter on this day, and now he is still running home, this is to get back thousands of money, it is really a trance.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I have three fewer condoms in the mountains. It is suspected that Chen Shun stole it. "There is no evidence yet, but tomorrow when he enters the mountain, there may be a result, it depends on whether he goes or not.

"Three, that's fine, let the blacksmith do it again." Chen Xiaoyi has the same opinion as Chen Hecai, "This Chen Chong's family has many children, and it is really not easy, just take that set, don't make trouble." ”

"The three condoms he took may have prey." Chen Pingdao.

The two men entered the courtyard, Chen Xiaoyi was pushing the courtyard door, and paused for a moment when he heard the words.

"Well, there's prey. That's not too much, a little lesson is to teach him a lesson, so that he doesn't dare next time. The attitude is a big change of one hundred and eighty degrees, Chen Xiaoyi put on the door bolt, "Okay, rest early." ”

After washing and exercising, Chen Ping went to bed, the bed board creaked, the wind blew outside the window, pulled off the corners of the quilt, covered his belly, and Chen Ping fell asleep.

The courtyard of the three entrances, the blue brick roof, the verandah of the wing room, the ground paved with flat stones, the flocks of chickens and ducks, and a few slaves and maids are busy.

Lying on the kang, warm and comfortable, showing a little feet out, a little cool, asked the slave waiting at the bedside to come over and pull the quilt.

shouted twice, but saw the slave and maid turn around, a little familiar, isn't this the little madman? So high? Why is he still holding the cowhide whip in his hand, close to the head of the bed, but instead of pulling the comfortable quilt corners, he gently pulls the ribbon around his waist with both hands.

What is this pose trying to do?

Chen Ping was a little hot, a little uncomfortable, and woke up suddenly.

"This Nima's." Reaching out and touching it, it was slimy, Chen Ping was a little speechless, "It's too early, right?" Why her? ”

I couldn't sleep this night, Chen Ping simply got up, went out of the east room, tiptoed to fetch water, and cleaned himself for the first time.

Fortunately, Chen Ping had mentioned the boxers to Liu before, and they were just changed a few days ago, so it is convenient to clean them.

"I don't know what time it is." The little flower in the hall was still asleep, the rooster with a tall dark red crown on the side was also napping, Chen Ping dried his boxers, and he was completely sleepy.

Touching the dark, Chen Ping went to the hall to get a bamboo, which was supposed to be used to make a toothbrush handle, but because the toothbrush sales were not as good as Chen Pingyi, he stayed.

The bamboo was as thick as Chen Ping's fist, and it was a foot long, Chen Ping ran to the west room, felt the short blade from the corner under the bed board, returned to the front of the hospital, sat on the stone mortar, and cut it along the bamboo joint.

"This short blade is really sharp, too." Bamboo can not be chopped with an axe or knife, otherwise it is easy to fork, Chen Ping used the short blade as a saw, pulling back and forth a little bit, and it didn't take much effort, the short blade was cut into the bamboo.

Turn a noodle around, and do this again, and finally break it gently, and the bamboo tube will fall off. However, this is external, and Chen Ping was already broken when he cut it in the mountains, and he didn't want it.

The stone mortar was a little cold, Chen Ping twisted it, and continued to cut the bamboo joints.

When there was a four-foot-long bamboo tube under his feet, Chen Ping stopped, drilled four holes symmetrically above and below each bamboo tube with the tip of the blade, and went to the wall of the hall in the dark to get some fine hemp rope.

This is the last time I knitted the reed top, it was not used up, and it is just right for stringing.

"Tie this to your leg and it should be able to further exercise." After adding some mud to the bamboo tube, after the hemp rope was crossed, it was tied to the calf, two bamboo tubes on the left and right, Chen Ping tried to lift it twice, "It's a bit heavy." ”
