Chapter 146: Scolding Rhubarb
Xu Changrong was still carrying a fan-sized cloth bag in his hand, as if he had come to pick wolfberries.
But the tea lodge is in the south of the village, and he can pick it when he turns around when he goes out, but he runs into the woods in the east of the village with a near and far, and he can barely say it just now when he meets by chance, and now he knows that their mother and daughter may be here to pick up firewood and come over, which is obviously intentional.
Xiao Nuan looked at this Xu Changrong carefully, and saw that he was tall, with a fair face and delicate facial features. It's unpleasant to look at!
However, Xiao Nuan still asked with a smile, "Xu Gongzi came to pick wolfberries again?" ”
"Exactly. The small forest in the south of the village is almost picked, so Xiaosheng came here, and he didn't want his wife and two girls to be here, so he bothered. After Xu Rongchang finished speaking, he gently reminded with kindness, "The wolfberry branches are prickly, and they are carefully pricked." ”
He said it to Xiaocao, but when he finished speaking, his eyes looked at the Qin clan, and then he quickly dodged away, and his steps went to the other side with a slightly faster pace.
Seeing him leave, Qin Shi whispered to Xiao Nuan, "Let's go back quickly, shall we?" ”
Xiao Nuan shook her head, "This is our territory, why avoid him, we can do whatever we want, let's see what he wants to do first." ”
Qin walked out of the Chen family, and her mother's family did not tolerate it, if there was any more gossip, life would be even more difficult, so she acted very carefully on weekdays, and rarely had contact with young or lonely old men.
Xiao Nuan knew what her mother was afraid of, and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, mother, there is a daughter in everything." Besides, there are a lot of people coming in and out here, and no one will say anything, so let's pick it up and leave. ”
When Qin heard this, the movements in his hands were faster, and he just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
Xiao Nuan was not in a hurry, secretly observing Xu Changrong who was walking away, and seeing that he did not look back and disappeared into the woods, he lowered his head and asked Rhubarb, "What's wrong with him?" ”
"Woo-" Rhubarb squeaked and patted the fallen leaves under his feet with his paws, and Xiao Nuan looked at his sister.
Xiaocao immediately said, "Rhubarb doesn't like him, and Xiaocao doesn't like it either." ”
"Why?"
"He scolded Rhubarb for being a brute!" Xiaocao pursed her lips.
As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, and bullying rhubarb is not giving them face! Qin frowned, Xiao Nuan glared, "When, what's going on?" ”
"Just a few days ago, Rhubarb won a race with Ah Niu and her brother, and when he was jumping, he suddenly jumped out and was scared, so he scolded Rhubarb!" Xiaocao pouted aggrievedly, her sister was not at home at the time, and she didn't want to cause trouble for her mother, so she didn't let Rhubarb tear his pants. If her sister was here, she would have gone home and asked her to come out and clean him up!
But then she forgot about it, and only remembered it when she saw Xu Changrong today.
Xiao Nuan patted Rhubarb's back, "I've wronged you, but don't run in crowded places in the future, and don't come over when you see strangers, it's troublesome to scare people." ”
"Wang!" Rhubarb screamed and flicked his tail.
"We weren't in a crowded place, just on the field road outside the village, and he suddenly came out of the hillside!" Xiaocao understands the rules and will not run around crowded places with rhubarb. But there is no mountain road there, who knows that he will suddenly come out.
Qin Shi shook his head, "Forget it this time, be careful in the future, don't hurt people." Rhubarb also remembered a little. ”
"Wang!"
"I'll go back and cook you meat and bones later."
"Woohoo!" Rhubarb is happy to wag its tail.
Xiao Nuan's mind turned, and she felt that if Xu Changrong really had any plans, he would come over later.
Sure enough, after a while, Xu Changrong came over from the woods again, the bag in his hand was empty, and smiled at Xiaocao, "It's time to get out of school, do you want to go to Xiaocao?" ”
Xiaocao nodded, "Yes." ”
Xu Changrong was just about to speak, when he heard Xiaocao say again, "I'll go with Rhubarb, not with you!" ”
Xu Changrong shook his head and smiled, "Little grass girl is still angry about the last time Xiaosheng scolded your dog?" ”
"Humph!" Xiaocao turned his head away from him, and Rhubarb got the promise of meat and bones, and stopped paying attention to him, and played with his paws pulling leaves.
Xu Changrong turned around and explained to the Qin family, "That day, Xiaosheng passed by on the road, and his wife's dog jumped out, and Xiaosheng was frightened and scolded it, Xiaosheng is indeed inappropriate. However, Xiaosheng's mother often said when she was at home that the dog has no face, and it was clear that it was fine one moment, but the next moment she said that she would turn her face and bite someone. In Xiaosheng's opinion, the lady's dog is bigger than the other people's, and it will be difficult to control it if you really go crazy. It's still well bolted, and if it really hurts someone one day, it's a trouble for others and for yourself......"
"Wang!" Rhubarb bares a mouthful of fangs.
Xu Changrong glanced at it and said with a wry smile, "Look, Xiao Sheng just said a few words, it is so irritable, it is a matter of time before it hurts people, if Mrs. thinks about it for the sake of Xiaocao Girl, she should not let her have a ...... with her."
"Xu Gongzi! There is a saying in the village called 'a cat and a dog', which means that everyone raises cats and dogs as a mouthful. People have tempers, dogs have them, they bark when they are angry, they wag their tails when they are happy, but as long as they don't provoke them, they don't bite. Everyone's dogs have been raised and taught since childhood, and the dog that bites people is not big, and it has long been killed and buried. It was rare for the Qin family to say such a large amount of words in front of the living, because in her heart, rhubarb was a family member who came out of the Chen family with her, and she was of course not happy to be said like this, "You go to see the people in the village, which family's dog is on a leash?" If you go and inquire again, which dog has hurt someone? ”
The main reason why people in the village raise dogs is to take care of their families, and the main reason for free-range breeding is that dogs can find water to drink and catch mice or rabbits to eat, saving food; Second, if there are weasels, foxes or wild cats in the house to steal meat, chickens and eggs, dogs can also help drive them away, and if they are tied up, they will not be used. The rule passed down from generation to generation is that no dogs are recruited, which means that you don't tease dogs when you are idle, and you won't provoke other people's dogs.
"Xu Gongzi is right, dogs turn their faces and don't recognize people, but it's not just dogs, it's all the same from people to rabbits!" Qin said again.
Being said by the Qin family like this, Xu Changrong was not annoyed, nor did he laugh, but listened and played very seriously, then tidied up his clothes and swept the floor, "Madame's lesson is that Xiaosheng should not be unscrupulous. Please forgive me? ”
Seeing him like this, the Qin clan hurriedly gave way and said, "Young Master Xu, please get up." Ten miles away from the township, we have always been a free-range dog here, you just came and didn't know, so it was also out of good intentions, the little woman just spoke in a bad tone, don't be picky. ”
Xu Changrong got up and looked at the Qin family sincerely and attentively, "With a mother like you who understands righteousness, no wonder the two girls are so smart and sensible. ”
