Chapter 9: Searching

Tao's second name is Tao Chunsheng, because he was born in spring.

At this moment, Tao Chunsheng's white face was flushed, and he was walking too quickly, and he hadn't even breathed yet.

Being questioned by Ma Shi in his hand like this, he was anxious and panicked, and said with a sad face: "I don't know when there was a big hole under the bag, and when we walked to Maple Ridge, we were in a hurry, so we put the sack containing the pigs in the grass and hid it, and when we came back after peeing, we found that there were two fewer pigs inside, and if we didn't come back quickly, the third one would have run away......"

Ma's body shook, and he almost fell to the ground.

Tao Chunsheng held Ma Shi, gasped and continued: "We have been looking for a lot of circles around there and have not found it, seeing that the sun is going down the mountain, and it is even more difficult to find it when the light is dim in the mountain, but if you don't look for it, the pig cub may be taken away by wolves overnight in the mountain, and even if you can't go, you have to freeze to death, and my father can only send me home to move the rescuers......"

Ma was so anxious that he stomped his feet and scolded: "Move the rescuers? You said it lightly, it's almost dark this day, where to move! ”

Although he was scolding like this, Ma still tried hard to turn his brain, and soon told Tao Chunsheng to go to the neighbors for help first, and then go to the people in the village to help find it.

got the idea, Tao Chunsheng ran out of the door in a hurry.

"Mother, I'll also go to the mountains to help find it."

In the east room, a weak voice came from behind Ma, it was Fan who was kneeling on the side.

Ma Shi glared at Fan: "What's the use of kneeling there and playing tricks?" Why don't you hurry up? ”

Fan, as if he had been pardoned, quickly got up from the ground and stumbled to the door.

Seeing Fan running away, Zhu's eyes flashed, and he quietly moved back under his feet.

It's getting dark, so she doesn't bother to go into the mountains, sister-in-law, this fool......

"Second aunt, my stepmother is gone, what are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and help find the piglets, one more person and one more pair of eyes......"

Tao Sixi's voice sounded out of place.

Zhu felt a burst of chagrin in his heart, and before he could respond, Ma's fierce gaze swept over.

"What are you doing here, you don't go to the mountains to look for piglets? If you can't find a piglet, no one can think about it, go quickly! ”

With Ma's loud shout, Zhu escaped from the east house with his tail between his legs.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to throw Tao Sixi a resentful look.

Tao Sixi's face did not change, and his calm and indifferent gaze made Zhu even more crazy.

Ma was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and after a few circles in the east room, he suddenly came to the back of the bed.

She pouted and dragged a bulky wooden box out from under the bed.

"Four girls, bring the handkerchief on the bed!" Ma Shi suddenly commanded.

Tao Sixi turned his eyes and saw a headkerchief made of blue old cloth next to the bed.

This kind of veil is commonly used by the women of the Zhuang family, going out to visit relatives and friends, wrapping it on the head, which can not only block the wind, but also avoid suspicion a little, and can also be used to do some other things.

For example, at this moment, Tao Sixi handed the handkerchief to Ma, and Ma spread the handkerchief on the ground and gently moved the eggs in the wooden box onto the handkerchief.

"One pair, two pairs, three pairs...... Six pairs ......"

Ma first counted six pairs of eggs and put them in the handkerchief, considered it, and then took another pair and put it back in the wooden box.

Finally, he closed the four corners of the veil and tied a knot, and stood up with it carefully in his hand.

"Accompany me to Lizheng's house." Ma Shi and Tao Sixi gave this command, and walked towards the door of the house with eggs and little feet.
