Chapter 3 What did you dig in the middle of the night?

Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin saw that Tie Niu did not conflict with Qinglan again, so she put her mind at ease, and then glanced at each other, they all knew each other's thoughts, and after eating, Uncle Lin said to everyone who was about to leave: "Everyone stay first, we have decided, and we will add two more hours of mining at night, and the wages we give are twice as much as those given by the master's family, and the wages will be settled tomorrow morning, who wants to stay and continue to work with us?" ”

Mo Changguan looked at them, and his heart suddenly blossomed, the secret path was still considered to be their acquaintance, but his face was not obvious, he still wanted to maintain an unapproachable appearance, but he didn't step forward to stop him, but turned around silently and walked away.

When everyone saw that the leader did not interfere, one of them thought about it and stepped forward and said, "Let's join the gang, don't we just go to bed later?" How much of a thing, and it can improve your life, right? After listening to this, everyone laughed and responded.

Someone was the leader, and some people in the crowd also felt that this was a good way to increase their income, so they stepped forward and agreed, and after a while, there were more than a dozen people ready to take over the work, and the rest of them either had the elderly and children to take care of at home, or they felt that they were too tired for a day to exert their strength, so they went home.

Lin Xia felt a little unbearable in her heart, she knew that it was because Uncle Lin should inherit the matter of Mo Changguan, it was all because of her, after this day, she couldn't help at all, and the mines she dug were even a drop in the bucket, so she also said that she wanted to stay.

Lin Qinglan didn't know that there were such twists and turns, so she still said with a naΓ―ve attitude: "Sister Xia, there are already many people here, and it's not bad for us, so it's better to go back and rest early." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Lin also said: "What Qinglan said is that you are still young now, and you don't grow tall if you sleep late." ”

"Xia Er, let's rest early with my sister." Aunt Lin also helped on the side.

Lin Xia was persuaded by these three people in turn, so it was not easy to do too much, and discussed: "Then I will help dig for another half an hour, and I will not delay resting." Her words were pleading, and her tone was genuine, but it was difficult to refuse.

Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin agreed, leaving Qinglan pouting and looking reluctant, but her actions were still meek next to Lin Xia, and she also began to help with work.

Lin Xia nodded his forehead and said, "You're sleepy, you don't have to accompany me." ”

Qinglan glared at her, and seemed helpless, sighed like a little adult, and said, "Who made you a sister, I have to accompany you, and I don't dare to go back if I'm afraid of the dark." ”

Lin Xia knew that it was useless to tell her anything now, so she had to let Qing Lan finish her little temperament first before she could explain, so she shook her head with a smile and didn't answer. Xindao, after all, Qinglan was spoiled by Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin, and she couldn't understand their hard work, and her focus was always far away from firewood, rice, oil and salt, and her heart was simple.

After all, Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin have to pay for it by themselves, if only there was a better way to mine, Lin Xia was digging while thinking, unconsciously a little distracted, holding the shovel and feeling that something was wrong, and there was a "squeak" exclamation from the ground, Lin Xia then came back to his senses and squatted down to carefully check what the situation was.

Gently brushing away the dirt and rubble, there was a rabbit-sized dragon carp curled up inside, which seemed to have been injured by a shovel? Lin Xia felt guilty for a while, and hurriedly hugged the dragon carp that was ball-shaped, the dragon carp had a docile temperament and would not take the initiative to attack humans, and wanted to bandage its wounds, but saw that it had no scars on its body, but it was holding a lychee-sized hillworm in its arms, this kind of insect also loves to burrow into the soil like a dragon carp, and will form a ball by itself when it encounters danger, but the skin of this hillworm has been broken, and it is dripping with juice, it turns out that the dragon carp's supper has been broken, and the cry just now is dissatisfied, thinking that others want to grab food from it.

"Okay, okay, no one is going to grab good food from you, relax." Lin Xia gently poked the little head of the dragon carp with his fingers, and said with a smile: "You can go elsewhere and find a good place to eat." After saying that, he put the dragon carp in a place far away from the construction site and let it walk away with the delicious food on its own.

The dragon carp seemed to understand her words, looked up at Lin Xia, and tilted his head, as if nodding, and then hugged the hiundan worm tightly, turned around and walked away, looking at the back of the dragon carp gradually moving away, Lin Xia flashed a burst of light in his mind, and then laughed very happily, turned around and ran back to the mine.

"Qinglan, don't be busy, how about we do something interesting?" Lin Xia hurriedly smiled and took Qinglan's hand, by the way, it could also divert Lin Xia's attention and make her happier, Qinglan's eyes lit up when she heard the word "interesting", and asked, "What is the matter?" ”

"Empty the big kitchen." Lin Xia said mysteriously, and seeing Qinglan's puzzled look, she whispered in her ear and said a little fluttering, the two looked at each other and smiled, and walked out happily.

Tie Niu has been paying attention to Qinglan's movements, watching her float away like the wind, and immediately reported this to Uncle Lin, and with Uncle Lin's approval, he also went out in the name of "protecting" Qinglan.

Lin Xia found Tie Niu following behind him, touched Qing Lan with his elbow and said, "Tie Niu is a little bit wrong today, his eyes are always staring at you, and now people are following behind, what's wrong with you?" ”

Qing Lan looked back behind her with a puzzled expression, and saw Tie Niu turning his face away unnaturally, so she asked, "Tie Niu, what are you doing with us?" ”

Tie Niu hung his head and looked at the ground, stabilized his mind and said, "It was Uncle Lin who called me to come over to protect you, and it is not safe for girls to be outside at night." If you need any help, you can come to me. "But I secretly cursed myself in my heart, why should I be weak-hearted, I can be justified.

Qinglan's focus is entirely on "you can find him if you have help", so she feels that it is also a good thing to bring an iron bull. So the three of them went to the kitchen together, and when they returned to the mine, they didn't pay much attention to the three of them, thinking that children were by nature and fun, and thought that they had found a new toy.

Half an hour later, Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin, and the Tie family all rushed the three children back to the house to sleep.

Qinglan's face was slightly dark, and Lin Xia kept coaxing and said, "I promise you, I will definitely buy you more!" ”

Looking at Lin Xia's sworn appearance, his face softened slightly. said: "I don't care, Sister Xia, let's talk about it, whoever plays Laipi is a puppy!" ”
