Chapter 37: A ghost in the woods

When the food is cooked, the moon has climbed up for a long time, and the small courtyard is lit with electric lights, but it will not be very dark.

The air was filled with the smell of chicken, as well as the fragrance of white flour mixed with cornmeal, Mao Hongyu was still embarrassed to be too shabby in the end, and put some chopped green onions and lard in the pancakes.

The pancakes are browned, and the sight of them makes you appetize.

A large pot of chicken was served on a small table in the courtyard, as well as cabbage and cold cucumbers fried in lard, plus a large stack of golden pancakes, and the meal was quite good.

Ye Qing and Ye Zhinan ate in the kitchen, Mao Hongyu secretly left a few pieces of chicken and some vegetables for the two children, and she served a bowl of vegetable soup to eat with cakes.

Ye Zhinan sandwiched a piece of chicken to Mao Hongyu: "Mom, you and my sister eat more chicken, I haven't been hungry until now after eating the dumplings at noon." ”

As he spoke, he clipped another piece to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing gave the chicken to Ye Zhinan again: "I'm not very hungry, you are growing up, you need to eat more." ”

Mao Hongyu smiled and gave the chicken to Ye Qing: "I eat meat and stuff my teeth, Qingqing eats, I see that Qingqing has lost weight recently." ”

Ye Qing watched the family come and go politely, and laughed: "I think so, we will have one piece each, and the rest will be eaten by the water baby." ”

There are only four or five pieces of chicken in total, and this time Mao Hongyu has no opinion.

The three of them happily ate chicken and fragrant cakes in the kitchen.

Ye Zhinan also talked to Mao Hongyu and saw Sun Cheng in the reservoir: "My sister is really powerful, and she knows the big officials in the city." ”

Ye Qing put his index finger on his lips and sighed: "Don't talk nonsense, your sister is now a widow, and she is laughed at in a whisper." ”

Ye Zhinan hurriedly covered his mouth: "Oops, I forgot." ”

Mao Hongyu glanced at him: "I don't have a long heart and eyes for a day, don't talk nonsense when I go out in the future." ”

Ye Qing was curious about Chen Yongli: "Mom, the one with glasses also came last year?" ”

Mao Hongyu shook her head: "No, I came last year as a chubby old man with a very good attitude." When I left, I gave my family two dollars. ”

Ye Qing sighed, thinking that it was better to be careful.

Chen Yongli, who was sitting in the courtyard, also chatted very lively, from national events to the development of the village next year, as well as the price of food, and the grand blueprint for everyone to have enough to eat in the future.

Niu Dewang asked the accountant to buy a few catties of bulk sorghum wine, and after a few big men drank the wine, they talked even more.

And Ye Tiancheng was silent a lot, silently accompanying the leader to drink and eat.

After a few catties of sorghum wine bottomed out, Chen Yongli suddenly looked at Ye Tiancheng: "Brother, you are also a blessed person, you have both children and daughters, and you are so obedient and filial." ”

Ye Tiancheng smiled innocently: "What is convincing, you still have to work hard to farm to eat." ”

Chen Yongli smiled: "Don't say anything else, just your son-in-law, I will have a bright future when I look at it." ”

Niu Dewang suddenly interjected: "It's a pity that his life is not long." ”

Chen Yongli smiled incomprehensibly: "That's not necessarily, as the saying goes, if you live to see a person die, you have to see a corpse, have you seen his corpse?" If you shouldn't say something, it's possible to go on some secret mission. ”

Ye Tiancheng blinked his eyes, his face full of horror: "Impossible, right?" What if that doesn't hurt my daughter? No, you can't talk nonsense, Team Leader Chen. This is no joke. ”

Niu Dewang also nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I heard that the situation over there is tense, and many people have turned to ashes." ”

Chen Yongli waved his hand: "Okay, let's not talk about this, no matter what, we are our heroes, we have to give a glass to the heroes." ”

Several people took a sip of wine in their glasses.

Ye Qing and the others could hear it clearly in the room, and Mao Hongyu couldn't help muttering: "This Team Leader Chen is really wrong, why don't you ask Jinbei what is going on?" ”

Ye Qing is still the first time I've heard that you can cheat to death? But she couldn't guess if it was true.

The meal was eaten until the middle of the month, and Niu Dewang took a few staff members to the village committee to rest.

Mao Hongyu pulled the unconscious Ye Tiancheng into the house, and couldn't help complaining: "It's really a useless person, don't drink if you can't drink it, and you can drink too much at home." ”

said that he was puzzled, and slapped Ye Tiancheng twice.

Ye Qing and Ye Zhinan covered their mouths and smiled, cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks in the courtyard.

After everything was cleaned up, Ye Qing took another bath before lying down, and when he woke up, it was already dawn.

Ye Qing rubbed his eyes in a daze, Ye Tiancheng and Mao Hongyu were not there, so Ye Zhinan sat in the courtyard and sharpened the slingshot.

"Where's Mom and Dad?"

Ye Zhinan crooked his eyes to practice aiming, and said, "I've gone to the field, and I'm ready to turn over the ground." ”

"Why don't you go?"

Ye Zhinan snorted: "I only gave me five jobs when I went to plough the ground, and I won't go." I'm going to go with you to the woods to find ginseng to sell for money. ”

Ye Qing looked at Ye Zhinan, who had already entered the eyes of the money, and smiled: "Okay, let's go when I wash my face." ”

She found a cool and ventilated place for half of yesterday's ginseng, washed her face, and took a clean cloth to wrap two pieces of cake from last night.

He filled the kettle with some water and asked Ye Zhinan to carry it: "If you meet someone who asks, you say that we will go to the reservoir to play." ”

Ye Zhinan nodded nonchalantly: "Well, I'm sure I won't talk nonsense." ”

Ye Qing was still not at ease: "Wealth is not exposed, you must remember this truth, no matter how much money you have in the future, you can't let others know." ”

The adults had gone to work in the fields, and the children didn't know where to gather, so they didn't meet anyone along the way.

The two of them went to the pine forest familiarly, but they were not very lucky today, and they didn't find a single ginseng after walking for a long time.

Ye Qing was afraid that there were snakes or other animals in the forest, so he and Ye Zhinan found a stick to hold in their hands.

Two or three hours passed, and nothing was found, which made Ye Zhinan a little frustrated: "Could it be that only one?" ”

Ye Qing was very calm: "Don't worry, if it's really that easy to find, this thing won't be worth much." Be patient, let's find a place to eat and rest first. ”

Ye Zhinan hung his head and sat down with Ye Qing in a flat and clean place, wiped his hand on his clothes, took a piece of cake and chewed it.

Ye Qing smiled and knocked on his head: "Be happy, if you don't find it today, isn't there tomorrow?" As long as you persist, you can always find it. ”

Ye Zhinan looked at Ye Qing: "Sister, I found that you are very good at reasoning now, but I won't be annoyed when I hear it." ”

Ye Qing laughed: "What I said is not a big truth, it is all the truth." ”

Ye Zhinan smiled, and after drinking a few sips of water, he felt a little urgent to urinate, so it was convenient to get up and go to the depths of the forest.

Ye Qing ate the cake slowly, feeling that the forest seemed to be pressed by a natural air conditioner, and it was too pleasant to stay in summer.

Suddenly, I heard Ye Zhinan's scream in a different tone: "Mom, ......"
