Chapter 11: Ye Zhinansai gave Ye Qing a chicken leg
Ye Qing stared at the red leaf birthmark, a little surprised, thinking to himself could it be some hidden disease?
After soaking in a basin of cold well water for a while, the red birthmark gradually faded and turned a light pink again, and the burning sensation disappeared.
Ye Qing looked at the inside of his wrist suspiciously, the shallow powder couldn't be seen if he didn't pay attention, and the more he looked at it, the more weird he felt.
didn't notice that Ye Zhinan was holding a bundle of dried wheat straw and sneakily ran in: "Sister, sister." ”
There were suddenly multiple heads in front of him, which frightened Ye Qing: "Water baby!" You're scared to death. ”
Ye Zhinan smiled, holding the dry wheat grass in one hand, dragging Ye Qing with the other, pulling her to the kitchen, and carefully closing the door after entering, and plugging in the door bolt, before turning around and looking at Ye Qing mysteriously: "Sister, do you guess I brought you something delicious?" ”
Ye Qing looked at the bundle of dried wheat straw he was holding suspiciously: "What is delicious?" ”
Ye Zhinan happily put the wheat straw on the ground, opened it and pulled out a black lump of mud from it, which was still steaming.
Ye Qing stretched out his hand and touched it: "Burnt potatoes?" ”
Only potatoes can be boiled inside.
Ye Zhinan smashed open the black mud with his fist, and a fragrance suddenly overflowed from it.
Ye Qing looked at the layer of corn leaves inside the mud blank in shock, Ye Zhinan opened the corn leaves, and inside it turned out to be a yellow and clear roast chicken: "Where did you get the chicken?" ”
She didn't believe that Ye Zhinan could catch pheasants with her bare hands.
Ye Zhinan smiled mysteriously, rubbed his two hands on his knees, and tore off a chicken leg, the chicken skin was golden, the meat was firm and dripping with yellowish oil, it looked like the kind of chicken that had been raised at home for a long time.
"Sister, hurry up and eat."
Ye Qing frowned and looked at the chicken legs: "Are you stealing someone else's chicken?"
Ye Zhinan didn't care: "Last night, when I went to the wheat field, Niu Dazhuang's daughter-in-law spat on me, and I couldn't bear it." I went to touch her chicken in the middle of the night, and I made her proud again. ”
Ye Qing had a headache: "Shui Wa, although we are not afraid of her, but it is not right to steal other people's chickens, this is called stealing." ”
Ye Zhinan's face was unconvinced: "You forgot, two years ago, when I just let the chickens be raised, a big rooster in our family was stolen by Niu Dazhuang, and the chicken feathers were still buried in his yard, I really saw it." ”
When Ye Qing heard this, he immediately took the chicken leg: "Eat, you have to give it to her." ”
Ye Zhinan saw that his sister had taken the chicken leg, and with a smile, he pulled another chicken leg, opened his mouth and took a mouthful, his mouth full of oil. While eating, he chatted with Ye Qing: "Sister, I listened to our dad yesterday. Don't be sad, my brother-in-law is gone, and I will work hard to earn more work in the future, and I will support you. ”
Ye Qing bit the chicken that was only roasted with salt, and listening to Ye Zhinan's words, his heart was still very warm.
In the original world, she had no parents since she was a child, and she had been living in her aunt's house, and her aunt's family had a sister who always disliked her arrival and robbed her of her mother's love, targeting her everywhere, and the relationship between the two was very bad.
So she likes this very pure sister-brother relationship very much now.
Ye Zhinan took a few bites of chicken thighs, and felt that the meat was not delicious enough, people here often said that they didn't have the strength to work without salt, so the taste was heavy. Go to the cupboard with the chicken leg in your mouth to find a salt jar.
took out the salt jar and touched it, frowned, took off the chicken leg in his mouth and shouted to Ye Qing: "Sister, sister, the salt has solidified together." ”
Ye Qing was puzzled: "Is there water going in?" ”
Ye Zhinan hugged the salt jar and approached Ye Qing: "No, you see there are water droplets on the wall of the salt jar, I heard the doctor say that this kind of rain is going to rain." ”
Ye Qing really didn't know this knowledge, but he also knew that now was the time to harvest wheat, and it would be very bad if it rained heavily.
"Are you sure?"
Ye Zhinan nodded: "Sure, very sure, the doctor is a big scientist, he was put in the cowshed in our village at that time, and the words I knew were taught to me by him, but I was rehabilitated and returned to the city a few years ago." ”
Ye Qing twisted his eyebrows and looked at the salt jar: "Does the village know that it is raining?" Is there any notification of the weather forecast? ”
Ye Zhinan's face was full of disdain: "What, the weather forecast is not accurate at all, it said that it would rain in the spring, let's hurry up the mountain to plant beans, but after planting, we didn't see a drop of rain for half a month, and finally the bean seeds suffocated." ”
Ye Qing thought for a while: "If you can be sure that it is going to rain, hurry up and talk to the captain." ”
Ye Zhinan pouted: "I'm not going, the captain must think I'm lying, besides, the captain and Niu Dazhuang wear the same pants." ”
Ye Qing smiled and looked at Ye Zhinan, who was still full of childishness: "Then do you want to let the captain look at you in the future?" ”
Ye Zhinan was childish in the end: "How do you look high?" ”
Ye Qing smiled mysteriously: "You can listen to me for a while, now hurry up and eat chicken, don't say that the chicken you cook as a child is quite delicious." ”
Ye Zhinan was unhappy: "I'm not a child." ”
Ye Qing originally wanted to leave some chicken for Ye Tiancheng and Mao Hongyu, but Ye Zhinan disagreed: "No, if my parents find out, they will definitely kill me." You don't know our father's temper, he will definitely use a belt to pump me to compensate Niu Dazhuang's family. ”
When Ye Qing heard it, it was better to forget it, the way Ye Tiancheng and his wife educated their children was too easy to make children lose confidence.
She ate one chicken leg, and ordered Ye Zhinan to eat it all, and the two cleaned the kitchen again, dug a deep pit in the courtyard and buried the chicken bones.
After cleaning up, Ye Qing asked Ye Zhinan to take her to the captain.
Along the way, Ye Zhinan muttered and complained to Ye Qing: "What if the captain doesn't believe it?" Also, I fought with the captain's son, and we're enemies now. ”
Ye Qing thought that Ye Zhinan was quite precocious and a little manly yesterday. Looking at it now, this is still a child who has not grown up at all, and some crying and laughing: "Okay, let's go to business, they can think whatever they want." ”
When they arrived at the captain's house, the captain's family sat at a small table in the courtyard and had breakfast, sweet potato porridge and a plate of dark pickles.
The captain saw Ye Qing's sister and brother, his face sank, last night Niu Dazhuang ran to him with a blue nose and swollen face and cried for a long time, counting Niu Dazhuang is still a relative of his family, he is really angry when he sees it.
But there is nothing he can do about Ye Qing, after all, Ye Qing is now a martyr, and if he makes trouble in the countryside, he, the captain, will not be able to do it.
So when I saw the sister and brother, I naturally didn't have a good face: "What are you doing here?" Why doesn't the water baby go to work?"
Ye Zhinan glared unhappily: "I watched the wheat field last night, I can rest for half a day this morning, and then go to work in the afternoon." ”
Ye Qing didn't care about the captain's attitude, and said very directly: "Shuiwa said that there has been heavy rain in the past two days, so let's talk to the captain and hurry up to harvest the wheat." ”
