"Uncle Jiao, you're back. Wash up, I'll get you some water." ”

Chun Tao was in the small courtyard, tidying up the small vegetable patch, and when she saw Boss Jiao walking into the yard, she couldn't help but be very happy, and went to the stove to fetch water.

"What a good girl."

Boss Jiao, who was covered with dust, was very emotional.

"Come on, Uncle Jiao, the water is coming. It's cool. ”

Chun Tao used a copper basin with some broken edges to bring half a basin of clean water, and there was also an old white towel that was a little gray inside.

"Okay, good, Chun Tao is such a good boy. Come on, come on, give it to Uncle Jiao, I'll come by myself, just come by myself. ”

Boss Jiao took the copper basin in Chun Tao's hand, placed it on a stone in the courtyard, rolled up his sleeves, and cleaned it.

"Uncle Jiao, wash up, I'll go make dinner."

After Chun Tao finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the stove room again, and the jingling sound of pots and pans came crisply.

After a while, smoke curled up from the chimney.

"Ah Chai, you kid come back with your mother. Come back and see, look at Chun Tao, what a good girl. If only she could be my daughter-in-law, hehe. Ah Chai, come back quickly, come back to see if your kid has the ability and blessing. ”

Boss Jiao held the wet towel in his right hand and squatted in front of the copper basin in a daze. The left hand was still soaked in the clear water in the copper basin, and a trace of blood was quietly soaking and penetrating.

These days, although he can't go up Huaguo Mountain or get firewood, Boss Jiao is not idle.

No, I went to fetch firewood early that morning, although I couldn't go up to the Huaguo Mountain, but then Boss Jiao didn't come back, but went directly to the city of Haizhou.

On the street of Nacai Market, the housekeeper of the Liuyuan Wai family in Haizhou City is recruiting.

Boss Jiao stepped forward to register without thinking about it, yes, there are three copper plates a day. And what to do is just some manual work.

I don't have anything else, but I still have a lot of strength.

In this day, he and a few other laborers are on the Huaguo Mountain, carrying water from the mountain stream to the water curtain hole.

I was a little tired, and every day at noon on the construction site, I ate the dry food I brought. When I came back in the evening, I ate the dinner made by Chun Tao, washed and went to bed, and fell asleep.

Today, I accidentally slipped on my foot. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and supported a tree next to him with his left hand, otherwise wouldn't all the load of water have to be sprinkled?

Now it's just that the left hand has broken a little oily skin, if you really fall and get hurt, you will go home and lie down, and you don't have an income every day, and you have to spend money to ask Lang Zhong to see the injury.

Besides, I can't let myself be idle, this time I am free, and my mind is always full of their mothers and sons.

"Uncle Jiao, it's time for dinner. Eat sweet potato porridge tonight. That sweet potato is sweet. ”

Boss Jiao squatted there, and Chun Tao's happy voice came from behind him.

"Okay, let's eat."

Boss Jiao got up, picked up the basin of muddy water, and walked towards the vegetable patch in the courtyard.

With a "whoosh", Boss Jiao spilled the basin of water into the vegetable patch.

"Ma Wenyuan, what kind of spell did you cast on my father, these days, it's late, and he won't drive you away. You're here, you're still in my house every day? ”

Pu Xiaoyu stood in the flower garden in his yard, holding a small pair of scissors in his hand, while casually taking care of a cluster of moon flowers in front of him, he deliberately said with a cold face and crisply.

"Hehe, this young master has his own clever plan, and it is not enough for outsiders."

Ma Wenyuan stood not far behind Park Xiaoyu, looking at Park Xiaoyu's pretty back stupidly, as if he had just come back to his senses, and said with a hippie smile.

"Yo hi! Ma Wenyuan, have I, Park Xiaoyu, become an outsider to you? ”

Pu Xiaoyu suddenly turned around, pretending to be annoyed, holding a pair of scissors in his hand, and looking at Ma Wenyuan with horizontal eyebrows.

"No, no, no, my own people, my own people. My good sister Xiaoyu, how can she be an outsider. Hehehe......"

Ma Wenyuan took a few steps forward, accompanied by a smiling face.

"That's pretty much it, say, what kind of ecstasy soup did you pour my dad in?"

Pu Xiaoyu stretched out his right hand holding scissors and pointed at Ma Wenyuan, who came closer.

"Hey, hey, there's nothing. I just stole a set of "Twenty-Four History" from my father's study that was used to vassal elegance and brought it to your father. ”

Ma Wenyuan raised his right hand, scratched his head, and said with a smile.

"What? "Twenty-Four History"? My dad is going to sell his daughter because of a set of books? ”

Pu Xiaoyu's eyes widened, and the scissors in her hand were about to poke Ma Wenyuan's chest.

"That's not an ordinary "Twenty-Four History", it took my father a lot of effort to get it. It is the engraved version of the Wuying Hall of the Holy Emperor of this dynasty, which is very rare. I saw that it was useless for my father to fall into his hands, so he put it on the bookshelf and put it in ashes. So Young Master Ben ...... on a dark and windy night. ”

Ma Wenyuan was a little excited and began to show off his ability, but was suddenly interrupted by a crisp angry shout from Pu Xiaoyu.

"Ma Wenyuan, look at your appearance. Do you think that if you settle my father, everything will be fine? Well? Hum! ”

Pu Xiaoyu put down his right hand that was held flat, shook his hand angrily, and was ready to leave with his sleeves.

Unexpectedly, I took off the scissors in my hand all of a sudden, and coincidentally fell into the moon flowers that had just been trimmed. As if he couldn't care about it at the moment, Pu Xiaoyu walked towards the flower garden in a huff.

"Huh? Ay! Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, I didn't mean that. Don't you know what I—I think of you? ”

Ma Wenyuan turned around and raised his legs to start, wanting to chase after Park Xiaoyu.

"Stop." Pu Xiaoyu was walking to the edge of this flower garden, and suddenly let out a low shout.

I saw that Pu Xiaoyu stopped, didn't look back, and said coldly: "Ma Wenyuan, cut that little scissor back for Miss Ben, that's Miss Ben's beloved thing." Hurry up and pick it up, if you can't pick it up, don't think about having food tonight. Hum! ”

After speaking, Pu Xiaoyu walked out of the flower garden. The round door first turned to the left, and somehow, the flower branch stomped his foot like a trembling one, turned and walked to the right of the round door, and disappeared.

"Huh? This? Yes? When the scissors are picked up, they will have dinner, doesn't that mean...... Haha, look for it, look for it, find the scissors, go to dinner...... Go to eat. ”

Ma Wenyuan was dumbfounded at the beginning, then stunned, and then suddenly realized, and turned around immediately.

Suddenly, Ma Wenyuan stood still in a daze, as if dumbfounded.

I saw that the small scissors were falling in the center of the moon flowers.

This is a clump of moon flowers that doesn't look too big, but it's blooming just right.

The branches and vines are repeatedly entwined, the green leaves set off the red flowers, and a breeze blows, swaying slightly.

But among the scattered branches, those visible to the naked eye, but countless moon thorns, couldn't help but make Ma Wenyuan gasp deeply.

"I, me, this woman's heart, it seems that it is really the needle under the sea! I? No matter what, a dignified manly husband will not die if he is stabbed a few times by this moon season thorn. In order to have dinner, no, it's for my beloved Xiaoyu, I, I, Ma Wenyuan, fight. ”

Ma Wenyuan stood alone in the flower garden, finally chattering, talking to himself, and encouraging himself.

At the moment, he was gritting his teeth, raising his feet and walking towards the clump of moon flowers, as if he was about to go to the battlefield to fight, and he looked like he was going to die.
