15. Find a washboard
He, they, killed people and set fires? When was this? Zheng's stammering words were not good.
Lu Qingyu didn't want to scare her, so she softened her voice, "Mother, don't be afraid, I'm interrogating them." ”
The word "trial" made Zheng couldn't help laughing, "You girl, why do you say that?" They are all good brothers of Hongyu. ”
Hmph, it's because of her good brother that she has to take care of it. And the first person to be in charge is Hongyu.
This guy has stiff wings, and he doesn't take her seriously, so he dares to go out in the middle of the night without telling her?
No wonder she didn't see anyone when she woke up on the fourth watch, and dared to run out to do bad things?
Hongyu said that she could make money before, she asked how to make it, and this guy replied that he would kill people.
Now that he has more than a dozen brothers, all of whom are dead, isn't it a matter of killing people and setting fires?
If he took eleven people to kill people and set fires to earn money, wouldn't he become a heinous person?
Even in troubled times, there are many things that careless about people's lives, and that is not a reason for him to kill!
Her goal is to raise him into a generation of heroes, but she didn't think of making him a bandit who occupies the mountains and reigns!
Hongyu lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
The other eleven people didn't even dare to come forward.
This made Lu Qingyu almost angry, slapped his hand on the table, and scolded viciously, "Are you all full of food?" Do you want me to poison you like Miss Yu before you are willing? Let me tell you, my ability to poison is much higher than hers, and it will be difficult to keep you in the palm of my hand in this life! ”
This is not bragging, Yu Ziyuan's poison is just spent money to hire people to configure, what kind of poison does she Lu Qingyu want, she can't match it?
After scolding, Lu Qingyu was about to cry in pain. The table was too hard, and after a few slaps, the palms of my hands were red and painful.
Seeing that she retracted her hand and only inhaled the cold air, Hongyu was busy accompanying Xiaoyi, "Lady, does your hand hurt?" It's all my fault, come, I'll blow it for you. ”
"Shut up!" Lu Qingyu was full of grief and indignation, and as soon as he heard this guy open his mouth, he became angry, so frightened that Hongyu hurriedly closed his mouth and covered it with his hand.
He asked his brothers for help with his eyes, and the twelve young men looked at each other, not knowing how to explain to Lu Qingyu.
In the end, everyone unanimously looked at the second envoy of A, this guy is the most eloquent on weekdays, and this will come in handy.
Jia Er didn't dare to face Lu Qingyu who was furious, he hesitated and hesitated, but unexpectedly, four or five hands behind his back pushed his back, and he rushed to Lu Qingyu without warning.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law......" The big man stood in front of Lu Qingyu, hanging his head, looking like a child who had made a mistake.
"Straighten your tongue before you speak!" Lu Qingyu looked at him so angry and funny, but he gritted his teeth and pretended to be fierce.
"Yes, sister-in-law." Jia Er stood up straight, swallowed his saliva, and then said slowly, "Last night, it was Brother Jia who took us to the Liu family's house in Fuyang City, killed Miss Yu and killed a few dead people, and planned to kill Miss Yu, but she has too many people, we, we can't do it!" ”
"Huh?" Lu Qingyu tilted his head and looked at him, "Why can't you do it when there are so many people?" Is it because you are not good at what you do? ”
"Of course not!" Jia Er was like hearing a big joke, his big eyes widened, "Our dozen brothers are the most outstanding among the dead, how can we not beat them?" ”
Lu Qingyu threw out a look of why he couldn't do it since he could beat it, and Jia Er hurriedly explained, "They are all brothers who grew up in the dead soldier camp, how can they be killers?" ”
That's why!
Lu Qingyu understands, how can he say that he will kill if he fights the brotherhood of a child? People who don't have emotions are called machines!
But she knows that Hongyu is not a machine, they are people, normal people!
I believe that those dead soldiers will also die for her because they are controlled by Yu Ziyuan's poison, right?
But it's unforgivable to sneak out without her!
Last night, if they were killed by Yu Ziyuan's dead soldiers because of their soft hands, who would she ask for someone to go?
"Whatever your reason, it's not an excuse for you to sneak out in the middle of the night without sleeping." Lu Qingyu announced majestically, "Each of you will be punished with 200 push-ups, 200 sit-ups, and two laps along the back mountain." ”
"Lady, what are push-ups and sit-ups?" As soon as Lu Qingyu finished speaking, a weak voice sounded. It was Hongyu who took the lead in committing crimes.
Lu Qingyu hooked his lips and sneered, "You, in addition to being punished with them, tonight, you can't sleep in bed, you have to kneel ......."
I was just about to talk about durian, but I thought that I hadn't seen durian since I crossed over, and when I came to my mouth, I changed it to "washboard".
Hongyu immediately collapsed, his eyes widened, and he looked shocked and disbelievable.
Lu Qingyu didn't look at him, and personally demonstrated to everyone what push-ups are and what sit-ups are.
When she was done, she stood in the courtyard, ordered twelve young men to line up, and gave an order, "Start, whoever finishes it first will have meat to eat, and the last one to finish will have no lunch!" ”
So everyone lay on the ground in unison and scrambled to sit up. Such a punishment was nothing to these highly trained dead soldiers.
In less than an hour, the gang had completed their mission.
Lu Qingyu also announced, "Originally, it was time for you to dig a well and cut bamboo in the morning, but now you have wasted it, now you will go back to the house and lie down, and you are not allowed to come out without my permission!" ”
In fact, she was afraid that they would stay up all night and do physical exercise, which would be unbearable, so let them hurry up and catch up on sleep.
Hongyu followed her like a tail, "Then, lady, can I lie down in your house?" ”
"There are no doors!" Lu Qingyu stepped into the door and closed the door with a clang. Hongyu was locked out of the door, and the bridge of his tall nose was almost knocked down by the door panel.
He silently snorted and knocked on the door uncertainly, "Lady, then, where am I lying?" ”
"Love to lie where you lie!" Lu Qingyu hummed angrily and lay down on the bed.
Hongyu ran to the stove room with his brothers and slept on the floor.
When I woke up, it was already the sun.
Hongyu and the others got up, and the Zheng family had already cooked the meal and left it in the pot for them.
When eating in the courtyard, Hongyu didn't notice Lu Qingyu, so he asked Zheng.
Zheng said that she went to the back mountain to collect medicine.
Hongyu hurriedly finished the meal, took his brothers to the back mountain to cut bamboo, and looked for Lu Qingyu by the way.
Lu Qingyu carried the medicine basket on his back and the hoe for digging medicine, and when he saw them coming up, he didn't have a good face, so he said a cruel sentence, "Don't want to eat dinner if you can't finish cutting today." ”
With that, he walked away.
Jia Er frowned with a bitter face, and said to Hongyu, "Brother, why is my sister-in-law so fierce?" I'm so scared. ”
Yi Er also said, "Brother, what should I do if my sister-in-law doesn't give me food?" ”
Hongyu glared at them fiercely, "How do I know what to do?" I still have to kneel on the washboard at night, but you can sleep soundly, is there any reason for this? ”
When the other brothers heard this, they immediately felt that their hearts were balanced, and they all ran over to comfort Hongyu, "Brother, kneel and kneel, let my sister-in-law be happy, and we will have meat to eat." ”
"Yes, brother, sister-in-law is happy, and we have a better life!"
Hongyu was so angry that he had nothing to say, and climbed up the mountain with a woodcutter.
Lu Qingyu washed the medicinal herbs at home, spread them out in a bamboo plaque to dry, and began to look for things everywhere. Seeing that Zheng was very surprised, he asked her, "Xiaoyu, what are you looking for?" ”
"Mother, I'm looking for a washboard. Where's our washboard? ”
Zheng smiled, "Our washboard was washed into the river yesterday." ”
Lu Qingyu stared at Zheng's eyes, Zheng's eyes flickered, and he smiled awkwardly.
Lu Qingyu was happy, "Mother, the washboard is quite heavy, why was it washed away by the river?" ”
Why is it that the usual laundry clothes are not washed away?
"Then I'll go to the small table house and borrow one!" Lu Qingyu said that he would leave, and Zheng was so panicked that he hurriedly followed, "What else to borrow?" As I said, forget it, right? Hongyu's kid is also quite sensible. ”
"What's it?" Lu Qingyu's face turned pale with anger, "He is carrying his head to kill people, what if he is killed?" Do we have a way to live? ”
Zheng's face turned white, she really didn't think about it as well as Qingyu, in case Hongyu couldn't get out of the way, then the couple couldn't settle accounts with the two of them?
Lu Qingyu walked to the small table house and opened his mouth to borrow a washboard.
The little table lady knew what she wanted to do, and when she received Zheng's eyes, she hurriedly said, "I can't find it, I lost it." ”
Lu Qingyu sneered, turned around to leave, and shouted crisply at the small table behind him, "Sister, I found it." ”
When she turned around, she saw the small table running over with his washboard, and her little face was flushed with exhaustion.
"It's still a small table!" Lu Qingyu took it and left with a smile, leaving the stunned Zheng and the little table lady.
"You little girl, how much do you know?" The little table lady slapped the small table angrily, and the child was scared to cry.
Zheng sighed and persuaded her, "Forget it, how big is it, it's worth beating the child?" ”
Holding the hand of the small table, he coaxed, "Go, go with the eldest mother, the eldest mother will give you stewed meat to eat." ”
"Sister-in-law, you can't get used to him, this kid is really uneasy!" The little table lady said, cleaned up and went to Qingyu's house.
Hongyu came back with someone carrying the bamboo, and he didn't see the shadow of Qingyu, he saw the door of the wing room open, and he knew that she was in the house, so he didn't dare to go in, so he honestly led people to dig a well at the door, and designed the faucet according to the drawings drawn by Lu Qingyu this morning.
Six people dug wells, and six people made a fire to roast bamboo, bent the bamboo, and made water pipes.
I was busy until it was almost dark, the well dug water, and the faucets and pipes made of bamboo were formed.
"Rest, wash up and eat." Zheng and the little table lady steamed white flour steamed buns, stewed braised pork, mixed a few vegetables, and brought them to the table in the courtyard one by one, shouting Hongyu them.
Hongyu and his brothers washed their hands and faces with the water from the well they had just dug and sat down at the table.
Lu Qingyu Shi Ran came out of the wing room, Hongyu brought her a basin of water with a very eye-catching eye, and Jia Er waited with a pancreas in one hand and a cloth towel in the other.
Lu Qingyu glanced at them, lowered his head and washed his hands seriously, and the cool water gushed out from under the ground, cool and moist, especially refreshing in this summer.
After taking the pancreas and rinsing it again, she took a towel to wipe her hands, "This water is a little muddy." ”
"It's just dug up, how can you not mix it? After a few days, it will settle down and it will be cleared. Zheng explained to her, and beckoned Hongyu and them to eat.
Hongyu stood honestly, and the other brothers were also standing there, neat and silent, so frightened that the little black hand that stretched out the small table to grab the big steamed bun also retracted.
"Let's eat," Lu Qingyu thought of an idea and looked at these young men indifferently.
Hongyu nodded, and the others all sat down suddenly, their waists straight, and their military might was strong.
Lu Qingyu stretched out his chopsticks with satisfaction, and put a piece of braised pork in Zheng's bowl, "Mother, it's hard work." ”
Hongyu hurriedly followed suit, and also put a piece into Zheng's bowl, "Mother, it's hard work." ”
Zheng looked at the big guy happily, "It's not hard, it's not hard, it's not hard, the eldest lady is happy every day." Eat, eat, eat. ”
The others all had a piece of braised pork to give to the Zheng family, parroting, "Mother, it's hard work." ”
Zheng couldn't cry or laugh, "You eat, I'm enough." "How can she have so many sons!
Lu Qingyu saw that these guys were unorthodox, and glared at him, and Hongyu immediately ordered, "You don't need to clamp it, eat all!" ”
Then I saw the eleven people holding the bowl together, eating like a whirlwind.
Lu Qingyu also hurried to pick up the dishes, and instructed the small table, "Hurry up and eat, otherwise you will be eaten by these guys in a while." ”
Their family has a meal as if they are fighting, and this group of young men can eat very much, and they have the posture of eating poor people. If you don't grab it, you really can't eat.
The small table nodded obediently, and the chopsticks, which were not very proficient, also joined the army of grabbing vegetables.
After eating, Hongyu led everyone to install the well and faucet by the last ray of light in the sky.
As soon as the simple faucet was twisted, the water flowed out, and Zheng couldn't close his mouth, "Ah, yes, this thing is really good, just press it, and there will be water, and we don't have to carry water anymore." ”
"You don't have to take your laundry to the river, it's so cheap. Wring it out and put it directly on the rope! The little table lady looked enviously.
The small table is smiling and holding water to wash their faces and hands.
Lu Qingyu silently entered the stove room, took out a few pieces of charcoal that had not been burned through from the stove, found a white cloth to wrap it, and threw it into the well.
"What are you doing here? Got all the water dirty. Zheng glared at her dissatisfied, and was about to reach out to pick it up.
"Mother, this burned wood can be filtered when it is put in water, and the water will be clear when it comes out."
Zheng didn't understand what "filtering" was, and was stunned.
Lu Qingyu saw that Hongyu and the others were also looking at her eagerly, so she had to explain to them in detail, "Mother, this burned wood is called charcoal, don't all the rich people in the city buy charcoal pots for winter?" ”
"Yes, this one doesn't smoke." Zheng nodded, not knowing what it had to do with throwing water into the water.
"This charcoal, not only does it not burn with any smoke, but when it is put in the water, it can absorb the dirt in the water, and the water becomes clean."
Hongyu nodded thoughtfully, and his eyes brightened when he looked at her.
