"You ......" Xiu'er was dumbfounded, "I, how can I say it, it's also your sister-in-law......"

Before she finished speaking, Xiu'er's neck was pulled up, and the whole person was lifted into the air.

Xiu'er opened her mouth and was about to scream, but someone covered her mouth, and she could only make a mumping sound.

This woman is lazy on weekdays, but her body is not very heavy, so He Mai easily carried her into the southern forest.

He Mai used his skill to throw the woman into the tree, and looked at Xiu'er with one of Xiu'er's feet, and the smile on her face mocked.

Xiu'er's spleen and stomach were in pain from the corners of the branches, and she couldn't shout half a word.

"Don't talk nonsense if you feel offended," He Mai had a faint and detached smile on his face, "Don't think about going to my brother to complain, what's the use of complaining?" You can do something to seduce Xu Langzhong, do you think our Lin family lacks a daughter-in-law for you? ”

"I won't ask you why you came to my brother's side today, I just ask you, second uncle and aunt, what does it have to do with you?"

Her words were powerful, like a dagger glowing with a ghostly light, and her sentences were sharp.

Xiu'er was frightened by He Mai, who suddenly became cold, and a trace of fear flashed on her tangled face, and she replied tremblingly and weakly: "No, it doesn't matter, we have only known each other for a short time...... That's it."

She was halfway through speaking, then closed her lips and hesitated.

"What's it?" He Mai snorted.

"It's just that the second uncle always comes to me...... Asked when He Lin would go back, he, him and I stayed in Xiaoqing Village, and the second uncle and aunt couldn't rest assured, so they ...... I'm just ......" Xiu'er caught a glimpse of Hemai's sharp eyes, and bowed her head to answer her words.

He Mai lightly examined Xiu'er's face, and found a trace of panic and nervousness on her face.

This woman, I'm afraid, didn't tell the truth at all.

……

……

It was already late when he returned home, the lights had been turned off in Qin's house, and Liulang had not slept in the back room.

"Came back so late?" Rokuro waited for her to enter the house, then stood up gently and walked over to her.

"I met Xiu'er and asked her a few words." He Mai rubbed his eyebrows.

Rokuro saw that her face was tired, so he said, "It's too late, rest early." Tomorrow morning, we will go up the mountain after dinner. ”

"Okay," He Mai nodded happily when he heard that he was going up the mountain, "I've been busy these days, how long have we not been on the mountain?" Ming'er can catch a few more rabbits so that they can sell for silver in the market! ”

Seeing her jubilant, Rokuro couldn't help but smile and quipped, "Why are you so interested in selling silver?" What kind of clothes and headdresses did you fall in love with? Or rouge gouache? ”

"No, it's neither, those are nothing!" He Mai waved his arm, "I think, when we have saved enough money, will we go to the town to buy a house to live in?" ”

"Buy a house in town?" Rokuro was stunned, this goal was really not small.

"Why are you suddenly interested in the house in the town?" He asked the wheat tentatively.

"The supplies here are really poor, and the food and drink are far less than the life of the people in the town." He Mai said softly and seriously, "What's more, grandma has spent her whole life in the village, I think she will like it very much if she can be in the town in the future." ”

"Grandma would be very happy if she knew that you had this heart." Rokuro whispered.

He Mai curled his lips and smiled, "Hmm! But now it's just an idea, and it's far away. ”

Liulang nodded in agreement, "So Ming'er has to catch a few rabbits early in the morning to prepare for our future housing expenses, right?" ”

"Yes!" He Mai agreed with a smile in his eyebrows.

Rokuro couldn't help but scratch her nose, "Then go to bed early, little wealth fan, I'll go fetch water for you!" ”

"Good!"

He Mai didn't feel any ambiguity or discomfort in this action, turned around and went to spread the futon with joy, and thought about how to save money in the future, and his heart was encouraged and fulfilled.

Now the kang collapse and bedding of the new house where the old lady lives are ready-made, and the two planks in the miscellaneous room are naturally put back in the back room and prepared for Yang Liulang.

After He Mai finished washing, Yang Liulang had already gotten into the quilt on the ground, and when He Mai got on the kang and blew out the lamp, the two of them chattered in the quilt for a while, and then they were so sleepy that they couldn't open their eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, He Mai and the old lady made breakfast together, and the three of them ate breakfast fragrantly, and Liulang took a bow and arrow, and took He Mai to the mountain together.

Because there was an old lady at home, the two of them didn't plan to go too far, at most they walked around the mountainside, so they also took Xiao Hei with them.

Rokuro shook his head, a little disapproving, "I'm afraid this little guy doesn't have so much physical strength, and in the end, he has to let people carry him home." ”

"Let it go, see the world more, see how big it is now." He Mai said with a smile.

Now Xiao Hei has been carrying home for more than three months, more than twice as long as when he first hugged back, shaking his head and tail and looking vigorous and mighty, but still very sticky.

Now it is gradually summer, and the grass and trees are much more lush than in spring, and Xiao Hei is jumping and flipping in the grass, and he is having a lot of fun.

However, Rokuro has now intended to command Xiao Hei to complete some commanding actions, so as to practice Xiao Hei's various skills, so as to play a role in the future hunting.

Xiao Hei is naughty, but he is unequivocal when he follows the instructions, and he is stunned by his beautiful movements, which provokes her to praise Xiao Hei again and again.

For more than two hours on the mountain, the hands of the two were fruitful.

Two pheasants and a rabbit, and a half-dead snake that was bitten by it brought in Xiao Hei.

After all, Hemai is still a girl's family, and when she saw the snake, she was shocked, and her face changed slightly.

Seeing her look, Rokuro soothed, "It's just an ordinary cauliflower snake, it's not poisonous," he muttered, "This snake meat and chicken stew together are delicious, but if you're scared, let's throw it away." ”

"Can you still make soup? Is it really okay? He Mai was curious, but he couldn't let go of his worries.

"Of course," Rokuro smiled, "when it is stewed with chicken, it is called Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang, and it tastes delicious." If you want to taste it, I'll show you my hand when you come back later. ”

"Okay, then keep it," said Hemai.

Rokuro took out the machete he had with him and cut off the snake's head before putting it in the cloth pocket, opened the way in front, and carefully told the wheat to slow down, and then they went down the mountain together.

When I returned home, I saw Qin holding a handful of celery and sitting in the courtyard to choose vegetables.

"Grandma, we're back!" From afar, He Mai greeted the old lady loudly.

The old lady stood up from the courtyard and beckoned to them with a smile.

Xiao Hei ran towards the Qin clan like an arrow from a string, and entered the courtyard first.
