So after such a day after day, it was time to go to the town.

This time I went to the town, and it was still the ox cart of the second uncle of Niu, but only Sheng Qingqing followed, and Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming had to stay to watch the house.

Sheng Zhizhi was originally unwilling, but fortunately, after this period of contact, Sheng Qingqing already had a very good way to deal with her.

"If you don't stay at home, what will Siming and the two rabbits do? They need your protection. ”

So Sheng Zhizhi's sense of responsibility was ignited, and he offered to stay at home.

Second Uncle Niu saw it and praised it, "Zhizhi, this girl is becoming more and more obedient, what a good child." ”

Sheng Qingqing laughed dryly a few times and passed in a vague way.

Say Sheng Zhizhi is well-behaved? I didn't see her jumping up and down to tease Liu Qiucui in the past two days, the reason why Liu Qiucui is so haggard is actually a large part of her willingness, and it is to blame Sheng Zhizhi.

It's not the first time I've been to town, but this time it's a different scenery on the way.

"That's a lot of ox carts."

Niu Yu lay lazily on the car, and said: "Isn't it going to be the New Year, most of them are buying New Year's goods in the town." You see if they have a lot of goods in the car. I must want to take advantage of the New Year's festival to sell it at a high price. ”

This situation is no different from modern times, when it is not the holidays, and prices have to rise in a wave.

The ox cart creaked and creaked into the city.

Second Uncle Niu went to the medicinal herb shop to sell the medicinal materials on the car as usual, and the price was really much higher than last time.

By means of going to buy.

The two families bought a lot of things, especially Sheng Qingqing, who simply let go of the purchase. However, what she bought was not food, most of them were seeds, and occasionally some rice noodles and meat dishes, but the quantity was not much, only two or three meals.

Niu Yu looked strange and couldn't help asking: "Why do you buy so little meat and vegetables, how can you celebrate the festival?" And what do you buy so many seeds for? ”

Sheng Qingqing came to the town this time and spent a lot of money. But if you look closely, what she is holding in large bags and small bags is bags of seeds, and most of these seeds are rice seeds.

There are only three children left in the Sheng family, so who will plant the rice seeds when they buy them? And it's still winter, and there are still two or three months to plant in the spring.

Niu Yu's heart was full of questions, but Sheng Qingqing was mysterious and did not answer. Niu Yu still wanted to ask, but was slapped back by Uncle Niu.

"What are you doing when you kid asks so much, Miss Qing has an idea, don't ask nonsense."

So Niu Yu had to give up.

But Sheng Qingqing's behavior looked more and more weird.

The group quickly bought New Year's goods and went home, but when they were about to arrive at the door, Sheng Qingqing made a new request.

"Second Uncle Niu, can I put these seeds in your house first? And these rice, noodles, and meat dishes, when they were exposed to the outside world, said that you saw our sisters and brothers pitiful and gave them to us for the New Year. ”

Such a statement has no loss to the Niu family, and it can also earn some favors and face.

Second Uncle Niu didn't think much about it, so he agreed, leaving Niu Yu to stop talking.

It's almost the day of the New Year, and Shengjia Village is also lively. Not only did those who went out to look for work go home for the New Year, but also many people who settled in other places came back with their families. For a while, the village was a lot more lively, and the ox carts were not as deserted as before along the way, and villagers could often be seen.

Sheng Qingqing recognized several acquaintances along the way, and greeted them very politely.

When the villagers saw Sheng Qingqing, a junior, took the initiative to say hello, they also responded kindly, and they were a little enthusiastic, and asked Sheng Qingqing what he was doing.

"I went to the town with Second Uncle Niu, although I can't afford to buy things, but it's good to have a good eyesight."

As soon as they heard this, many people thought of the situation of Sheng Qingqing's family, and they couldn't help but feel pity, and even many people proposed, "Miss Qing, my family has a lot of food, you can come and get some back for the New Year later." ”

Sheng Qingqing thanked them one by one for their kindness, but rejected their kindness and said, "No need, Second Uncle Niu has already given us a lot of food." ”

She held the bags of meat and vegetables in her hand and raised them, so that everyone could see the rice noodles and meat dishes in them.

This repeated cycle, all the way from outside the village to the door of Sheng's house, and most of the entire village knew about it. For a while, there were poor people who had to rely on others for the New Year, and there were also villagers who praised the kindness of Uncle Niu and a few people with foreign surnames.

No one doesn't like to be praised, the Niu family has not been accepted by the people in the village for so many years, and Second Uncle Niu is not uncomfortable, but listening to it all the way today, the mood is excellent.

And all of this seems to have been calculated in advance by Sheng Qingqing, a little girl.

So although I don't know what Sheng Qingqing wants to do, when he came to the door of Sheng's house, Second Uncle Niu still said very kindly: "Miss Qing, you can go with confidence, Uncle Seed will definitely show you a good place, if you sisters and brothers have any problems, you can come to Uncle!" ”

Sheng Qingqing thanked her with a smile, held a few bags of rice, noodles, meat and vegetables, and got off the ox cart.

Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming had been waiting in the house for a long time, and when they saw Sheng Qingqing's figure, they immediately ran out to greet them.

"Sister, what did you buy?" Sheng Zhizhi rushed over excitedly.

Sheng Qingqing lowered her body slightly, letting them see what was in her hands, "It's just some rice noodles and meat dishes, not a lot, enough for us to celebrate the New Year." ”

"That's great!" Sheng Zhizhi clapped her hands happily and said with a smile: "I'm still worried that we won't have anything to eat during the New Year!" ”

During this period of time, in the eyes of others, the three of them went to Niu's house to eat almost every day, so they didn't starve to death. But this New Year is a day of family reunion, and the three of them with foreign surnames can't go to Niu's house.

At this time, Sheng Siming silently took over the piece of meat hanging in her hand.

"It's still Siming who is the most well-behaved."

Sheng Qingqing took out a free hand and pinched his little face, unsurprisingly dyeing the jade skin red.

"I'm good too!" Sheng Zhizhi was unwilling to lose the wind, and also went to grab what Sheng Qingqing had in his hand.

Sheng Qingqing deliberately didn't let her get it, and raised her hand to a high place, so that Sheng Zhizhi, who was only eight years old, couldn't reach it, and only jumped up and down this childishly.

Just when the three sisters and brothers were having fun, they saw a person walking slowly outside.

A simple and swarthy face, a steady pace, and a strong body......

Kong Gaoming watched the three sisters and brothers playing, and couldn't help but show a silly smile, "Girl, you're back." ”

For Kong Gaoming, the three sisters and brothers are not disgusted, and even Sheng Zhizhi still likes him a little. Because Kong Gaoming is not as mean as Liu Qiucui, he seems to be really as honest and innocent as he looks.

During this period of time, the Sheng family did not eat, and Kong Gaoming was unwilling to steal the food of the villagers, so he found a way to go up the mountain to hunt prey. I don't know how he managed it, but he really hit a lot of prey.

And when he hit the prey, Kong Gaoming did not hide his selfishness, he would resist Liu Qiucui's opposition and invite Sheng Qingqing's sister and brother to eat together.

Once or twice may not be a big deal, but every time he catches prey, he will give them his siblings to eat, as if he really treats them as juniors.

After more than ten days like this, Sheng Qingqing and the thoughtful Sheng Siming are still vigilant, Sheng Zhizhi is so arrogant, he almost treats Kong Gaoming as his own. Sometimes when he saw Kong Gaoming going up the mountain, he would remind him not to go to the depths, so as not to disturb the sleeping black bear.

"Well, I'm back, Second Uncle Niu next door gave me some vegetables and meat, we can have a good year, uncle and aunt will eat together then." Sheng Qingqing said with a cold expression.

Kong Gaoming was not angry at all for her cold attitude, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "How embarrassing is this...... I just shot a pheasant, so you can give it to them later. ”

The brother and sister looked down and saw that he was carrying a brightly colored pheasant in his hand.

This kind of pheasant is easy to be found by natural enemies because of its conspicuous coat color, so it rarely appears in winter, and it is not known where Kong Gaoming caught it. He didn't even have a weapon to hand it off.

Sheng Qingqing glanced at him fixedly, and Kong Gaoming's black face turned red when he looked at him directly, and then he nodded slowly and said, "Okay." ”

Kong Gaoming smiled happily, he stepped forward to take the vegetables and meat in the hands of Sheng Qingqing's sister and brother, and stuffed the pheasant into Sheng Qingqing's hand, and said, "Then trouble the Qing girl." ”

Sheng Qingqing felt a little indescribable in her heart, she didn't know whether Kong Gaoming was really so honest and sincere, or pretended. If it is disguised, this acting skill can win an Oscar in a few minutes in modern times.

When she handed over the pheasant to Aunt Niu, Aunt Niu's expression was a little indescribable.

"This man...... Looks like a good guy. Aunt Niu sighed.

Sheng Qingqing didn't know how to answer, so she was silent.

Seeing her like this, Aunt Niu didn't know what she thought, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, whether it's a good person or not, you will definitely know after a long time." ”

Sheng Qingqing lowered her eyes and couldn't see her emotions clearly, answered in a low voice, and turned back.

As a result, as soon as she went back, Sheng Qingqing found that something had happened at home again.

The vegetables and meat she brought back before were lost in the kitchen. That's it, what's more, the trampling marks are clearly visible on the vegetables and meat that were thrown on the ground. Apparently, someone threw the meat directly to the ground and trampled it. I don't know if it's because of anger or something else, but it won't be good intentions after all. If their family is really a poor family and can only rely on these vegetables and meat to survive the New Year, what this person is doing is obviously killing everything!

Sheng Qingqing took a deep breath, even though she had prepared in her heart, she was still a little unacceptable when she saw this scene.

"What's going on!?"
