Three days later, Xiao Qinghe was finally discharged from the hospital and returned home.

This family is even poorer than she imagined!

The house is an adobe house, very old, with some cracks in the walls, and some thatch can be seen sticking out of the walls.

The roof is not tiled, but thatched. This reminded Xiao Qinghe of Du Fu's poem: The high wind roars in August and autumn, rolling up the triple thatched on my house...... I was inexplicably worried.

Lin Jing put her daughter down, took out the key and opened the door, and several chickens in the house poured out.

Xiao Qinghe crossed the threshold and entered the house.

The threshold was worn out, and the floor of the house was ordinary mud, not even concrete. Xiao Qinghe pursed his lips, if it rains, how humid it should be!

The main door leads to a hall with a table in the middle and four benches. In the corner of the door, there are several farm tools. On the wall facing the door, there are portraits of two great men – really period-like.

Lin Jing put her daughter down and said, "Lotus, you play by yourself for a while, Mom fed the pigs first." ”

Xiao Qinghe followed his mother to the room on the right side of the hall, which was a kitchen with a large stove in the middle, and there were two fire eyes on the stove, the big one had a large wok on it, and the small one had a soup pot on it.

Above the stove, hanging these pieces of bacon and a few strings of sausages were blackened.

In one corner of the kitchen, half a room full of firewood was piled up, and on the other side there were many red roots. A tanuki cat jumped out of the red pile and bit a small fleshy mouse in its mouth, startling Xiao Qinghe.

Lin Jing saw it, but praised it with a smile: "September is so good, you can catch mice." ”

In these days, almost every household in the countryside will have cats, there are too many mice, if there are no cats at home, I don't know how much food will be wasted!

Xiao Qinghe's cat was only raised last year, and now it is less than half a year old, and it looks small.

Before it, Lin Jing also had a cat, which Xiao Shihe specially brought from the city when she and Xiao Shihe got married, and the coat color was solid goose yellow, and Lin Jing gave it a very cute name - orange.

The orange has a very high appearance, and all the people who raise cats in the countryside come to it for breeding, but after a few years, no cat cub has inherited its solid color until it is born in September.

A month before I was born in September, the orange somehow ate a bad stomach and didn't save it for a few days.

was born in September later, and the solid goose yellow made Lin Jing fall in love at a glance.

Originally, the family said that they would give Lin Jing a cat of other colors and didn't need money, but Lin Jing still bought it for ten yuan.

Fortunately, September is a male cat, otherwise the family would not have sold anything.

The mouse in September's mouth was obviously only born for a long time, and the hair on its body had not yet grown, so September threw it in front of the little master, and ran back to the red pile, and after a while, it bit a little mouse and got out.

Xiao Qinghe found a stick and poked the little mouse on the ground, and said, "Mom, I'm afraid there is a rat nest in the red mouse." ”

"It's okay, I'll take out all the little rats in September."

"Don't you care about the rat mom and dad?"

"Mom Mom?" Lin Jing was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about the big mouse, it's still young in September, and it can't catch the big mouse, and when it grows up, the big mouse will naturally not dare to make a nest in our house." ”

Xiao Qinghe glanced at the body shape of September, and silently closed his mouth, the five-month-old kitten was thin and small, and the hair on his body was not very dense, and the body size was so big that it was a little bit bigger, and it really didn't have the slightest deterrent.

Lin Jing raised the fire, mixed half a pot of water, picked up half a bucket of red roots, washed the mud on the outside, and took a knife to cut it into several large pieces and put it in the pot to boil.

After a while, September had already taken out eight little rats, Lin Jing saw it, took the tongs and picked up the little rats one by one and put them on the shovel, threw them to the back door, and said to September: "Go out to eat, don't get a room full of blood." ”

Xiao Qinghe involuntarily followed out, and saw September pulling out a paw on his left and a paw on his right, making a few little rats dizzy.

Occasionally, a small mouse squirmed and crawled away, and it pounced on it and held it down.

Have a lot of fun.

Xiao Qinghe turned his head and said, "Mom, September is just playing, don't you eat mice?" ”

"Eat, why don't you eat, wait until it's tired of playing, and eat it."

So Xiao Qinghe moved a small bench over, sat under the eaves, and watched the cat tease the mouse with great interest.

When the fragrance of red lotus wafted out, September seemed to be finally tired of playing, Xiao Qinghe saw it bite through the body of a small mouse, and a stream of blood rushed out......

Xiao Qinghe's heart jumped, the hairs on his body stood up, his stomach was rolling, and he wanted to vomit.

She stood up against the wall, feeling her legs go a little limp.

She's so stupid, why can't she figure out how to sit here and watch cats eat mice?

Pursing her lips and sitting down in front of the stove, the raging flame slowly warmed her stiff body, Xiao Qinghe took a piece of firewood and threw it in, and said, "Mom, I'll help you light the fire." ”

"The water is already boiling, so the fire doesn't need to be too big."

"Oh."

At this time, someone outside the door came in and said, "Ouch, Lin Jing is back, I also said that I came to cook red lotus and feed the pigs." ”

"Sister Lin Fang, this time it's really thanks to you, borrowing money, helping me take care of the house, and helping me feed the pigs, I really don't know how to thank you." Lin Jing said enthusiastically, if it weren't for the hundred yuan that Lin Fang borrowed, she really didn't know what to do.

Lin Fang smiled and waved his hand: "Be polite to me." ”

She saw Xiao Qinghe sitting in front of the stove and lighting the fire, walked over and touched her head, and said lovingly: "Lotus is okay, right?" I looked like I had lost some weight. ”

Xiao Qinghe was originally very thin because he was not full of snacks and clothing, and he looked a year or two younger than his peers. Now that he has been injured and lost so much blood, his originally dull yellow complexion is even paler, and his body is so thin that it seems that a gust of wind can blow it away.

Lin Jing said with red eyes: "After so much blood and so many crimes, can you not lose weight?" The doctors have said that if it is a little later, I am afraid that it will not be saved......"

Lin Fang said softly: "It's all over, isn't the lotus flower okay now?" As the saying goes, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing, and Lotus has survived this time, and everything will be fine in the future. You don't have to rush to pay back my money, you have loose money on hand, just make up for the lotus flower first, don't let the child fall into the root of the disease. ”

Lin Jing was moved by what she said: "Sister Lin Fang, thank you so much." ”

Xiao Qinghe also raised his head and said softly, "Thank you, Aunt Fang." ”

Lin Fang was surprised and said, "Hey, the lotus flowers will take the initiative to talk to people?" ”

Xiao Qinghe: "......"

How withdrawn and introverted is the original owner? Even saying thank you is a big fuss.
