Chapter 50: Where are you going with my rabbit?
Mother and daughter worked together, and in less than an hour, a spacious chicken coop was built, divided into two floors, the upper floor is dedicated to the hens laying eggs and hatching eggs, the top is covered with thatch, and the four sides are also stuffed with thatch to block the wind.
Looking at the results, the mother and daughter had a knowing smile on their faces.
In the ancient countryside, in order to save kerosene lamps, I slept as soon as it was dark, and now I have eaten, Wang Geng was busy for a day and rested, and Linghua sat in the yard, by the moonlight, chopping tomorrow's pig food.
"Third aunt, are you going to go to the street tomorrow?" Qin Rong asked.
"No, there's nothing to buy." Linghua said, "Girl Rong, are you going to rush to the scene?" ”
She just asked politely, Wan Meizi and Rong Yatou's house was burned down, and they needed to buy a lot of things, plus Rong Yatou caught two buckets full of fish in the afternoon, which were to be sold on the street.
"Well, auntie, if you don't go, I want to borrow your ox cart for use."
"Okay, it's just that my cow is old and walks a little slowly, I'm afraid you'll have to get up early tomorrow." Linghua went to check the old cow's rope and ox cart, there was no problem, she took the ox out, "The ox cart will be settled in your yard first, and you will go directly to the street tomorrow." ”
Qin Rong thanked her, led the cow to the yard, she went to find a bundle of half-yellow grass nearby, put it in front of the old cow, and then tied the rope tightly, ready to sleep.
"Rong girl, come and soak your feet to warm up." Wan warmed the water and poured it into the foot basin, but fortunately, the foot basin was also made of iron and was not burned, otherwise they would not be able to soak their feet in the winter.
"Mother soak first." Qin Rong pushed her, Wan Shi did a day's heavy work, so she had to enjoy it first.
As he spoke, he pressed Wan Shi to sit on the side of the footbasin.
Wan couldn't help it, so she had to let her, she originally planned to let the girl soak her feet and fall asleep, but since she soaked first, she turned sideways and boiled a pot full of water.
Qin Rong showed a sly smile.
"Your mother left you cloth, and Ming'er bought needlework scissors, and my mother cut two clothes for you." Wan suddenly thought of this.
"My mother's clothes have also been burned, and if I want to make clothes, I am also a body, and my mother is a body." Qin Rong said.
"How can this be done, after all, it is the last thing your mother left you." Wan Shi is unwilling, besides, Bai Shi has passed away a few years ago, and she can't tolerate the girl's cloth.
Qin Rong shook his head, "Mother, if I wear a new one, but you don't have any clothes to change, I don't feel comfortable wearing it, you took me in, you are also my mother, we have to share blessings and difficulties." ”
Wan Shi couldn't say anything about her, her eyes were slightly hot, this daughter is really heartwarming, she has only cultivated such a blessing in eight lifetimes.
"Okay, then cut it in two."
They really don't have clothes to change, but it doesn't matter to her, Rong Yatou is the age of Aimei, and the cloth left by the Bai family is somewhat thick, and it can also shelter from the wind and cold in winter.
Soaking their feet and baking the fire, their bodies were warm inside and out, Qin Rong and Wan Shi squeezed into a small bed and fell asleep, although it was very cramped, the mother and daughter were very satisfied.
At this time, Pei Chenzhou, who had changed several families, came back, frowning.
"Governor of the state, didn't you borrow an ox cart?" Wu didn't sleep, sitting at the door of the shed waiting for Pei Chenzhou, no expression on his face could escape her eyes as a mother.
"Well, the people who asked said that they were going to the scene tomorrow." Pei Chenzhou sighed slightly.
Wu said, "Mother won't go, you can buy the medicine back." ”
"It is better to have a doctor examine it before prescribing medicine, so that the effect is better." Pei Chenzhou said firmly, "Then I will carry my mother on my back tomorrow." ”
Wu's nose was sour, "You are so old, and you are still carrying your mother, what do you think if others see it." ”
"I don't care what others think or say, the most important thing is that my mother's body is getting better." Pei Chenzhou made up his mind, "Besides, my strength is faster than an ox cart." ”
"Mother heard that Rong Yatou caught two buckets of fish, and she will take them to the town tomorrow to sell, if they don't borrow an ox cart, they have to carry them on their backs, how tired." Wu said worriedly.
Pei Chenzhou was silent, he thought of this problem, he didn't go to Linghua's house to borrow an oxcart, hoping it was borrowed by Qin Rong, each family has its own difficulties, and he also wants to help her.
Lying on the simple and dilapidated bed above the pigsty, the young man put his hands under his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and couldn't sleep for a long time.
A dark shadow sneaked up to the courtyard of Wan's house, climbed over the courtyard wall neatly, jumped down, took a look at the shed, picked up the rabbit and prepared to escape.
"Third cousin, where are you going with my rabbit?" Caught off guard, Qin Rong's voice sounded behind him.
Her third cousin, a thin monkey, likes to steal chickens and touch dogs the most, after dinner, his eyes always look at the rabbit in her yard, he has an extra eye, I didn't expect it to be really headed.
Qin Wangdi was excited, his eyes rolled, and he smiled, "My rabbit came to your yard, I'll take it away." ”
Instead, he hugged the rabbit tightly in his hand, and he had no intention of returning it at all.
"Oh, this rabbit is injured in the abdomen, and he can't even walk, how did he run over the wall to my yard?" Qin Rong walked over step by step, looking at Qin Wangdi's changing face, "Third cousin, be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future, I don't want to make this kind of thing known to everyone, leave the rabbit behind, and I will treat it as if nothing happened." ”
Qin Wangdi's face was even more empty, "I don't understand what you're talking about, this rabbit is mine, I accidentally ran to you, and now it's the return of things to its original owner, you still want to be greedy for my rabbit and want to get beauty." ”
This is a rabbit weighing at least five pounds, cooking a soup or something, enough for the whole family to eat happily, the dead girl wants to snatch it back, but there is no door.
"Who's greedy for whose rabbit?" Qin Rong's tone was cold, "This rabbit was sent by the state guy, do you want to ask him to make a proof now." ”
Qin Wangdi's eyes showed a hint of vigilance, and he looked around, "Who knows where the rabbit he sent you went, this rabbit is in my hands, it is mine." ”
It's unreasonable to talk to the people of the old Qin family, after all, who in the whole village doesn't know that they like to take other people's things for themselves?
Qin Rong quickly stepped forward, Qin Wangdi hadn't reacted yet, he only felt that his hand was empty, and in the blink of an eye, the rabbit had already arrived in Qin Rong's hand.
"Oh, you said, whoever owns the rabbit belongs to whomever it is." The corners of Qin Rong's lips raised, "You can get out of my yard now." ”
"You broom star, dead girl." Qin Wangdi scolded angrily.
"A thief has broken into my yard, and if you don't sleep, hurry up and catch the thief." Qin Rong didn't care about his scolding, and shouted at the top of his voice.
Qin Wangdi panicked suddenly, and hurriedly climbed the courtyard wall and climbed out, but he was not careful, fell to the ground, and screamed.
It seemed that he had been stabbed in the thigh by a piece of wood, and something was leaking out, but he didn't care so much, and ran all the way to his yard and closed the door to his room.
Taking a closer look through the moonlight outside the window, a cut was made on his thigh, blood was gurgling, and he scolded angrily, "What a fucking bad luck, stinky girl." ”
The rabbit can't eat it, and it even affects himself to see red.
Qin Rong shouted, and a few villagers came to see the excitement.
"Rong girl, why didn't you see the thief you said." Someone asked.
"I was scared away, and thanks to everyone's strength, the thief didn't dare to be presumptuous." Qin Rong touched the rabbit in his arms and said.
When those villagers saw her rabbits, they were greedy one by one, they thought that Qin Rong would be extremely depressed and pitiful when he left the old Qin family, although the house was burned and struck by lightning, but Qin Rong still ate and drank spicy food, and suddenly smelled fragrant, how many families could compare with such satisfaction?
However, they were not as robbers as the old Qin family, envy was envy, and they all went back separately.
The people of the old Qin family also appeared above the courtyard, and seeing that there was no one in Qin Rong's courtyard, Chen scolded, "If you don't sleep at night, what kind of thief do you catch, where are the thieves?" You lazy seller doesn't get up early, we have to get up early. ”
Zhou also scolded, "I think you are a dead girl who is blind, what is worth stealing in your yard, and thieves don't patronize other families to patronize your place." ”
However, his eyes were fixed on the rabbit that Qin Rong was holding.
There was an extra rabbit in Qin Rong's yard, and the people of the old Qin family knew it, thinking about that rabbit at night, and two buckets full of fish, everyone was in a low mood and had no appetite.
"Is there a thief, can you go to the third cousin's room and have a look?" Qin Rong was too lazy to argue with these long-tongued women, turned around and went back to the shed, Wan Shi stood at the door of the shed, this kind of trivial matter was completely able to deal with for Qin Rong, but she still guarded, just in case.
"In order to avoid the thief visiting again, it is better to put the rabbit in the shed." Qin Rong said.
As for the cattle of the Linghua family, they have bells around their necks, and if someone steals them, there will be movements, but there is no need to worry.
"Just a rabbit, all of them will be remembered, and if you raise chickens and pigs in the future, you have to do a little more protection, after all, just our mother and daughter, some people will think it's easy to bully." Wan said.
Qin Rong thought so.
Zhou heard that it was related to Qin Wangdi, so he hurriedly walked to Qin Wangdi's room and knocked on the door.
"Wangdi, open the door."
