Chapter 51: The Wounded Yellow Owl (2nd Update~)
I broke open a cabbage, soaked half of it in the water, and began to break the other half, and as soon as I opened a crack, a round worm rolled inside, and the head of the worm was raised, "Ah! Bugger! "I was so frightened that I shuddered, screamed loudly and threw the cabbage away, and the grandmother ran out of the kitchen with a spatula when she heard the news.
She patted me on the back and comforted me: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you girl, you are not afraid of lobsters and other big things, so you are afraid of this kind of little cabbage." After saying that, he picked up the vegetables that I had thrown away, pinched the green worm on it, and threw it out of the door, and the little green worm rolled on the ground a few more times, and a chicken passed by and was pecked into the chicken's mouth.
Wow, that's amazing! I patted my chest and said, "Grandma, you are so brave!" ”
The grandmother put the vegetables in the pot and did it herself, and she said to me, "Xuanzi, the grandmother was also afraid of insects when she was a child. ”
"Huh? So when were you not afraid? Is it true that you won't be afraid when you grow up? I asked, holding my cheeks.
"My grandmother was very afraid of insects when I was a child, as long as I was afraid of insects, I didn't have enough money at that time, but when I saw insects, my grandmother didn't want to eat them, you said how afraid my mother was, and later, your mother was born, she was scared and cried by insects when she was a child, and I had to become brave, originally my grandmother thought that your old lady was not afraid of insects, it turned out that your old lady was not afraid of insects, because there were people who wanted to protect." The grandmother's eyes were wet as she spoke, she remembered her mother, my wife, it turned out that the grandmother was also afraid of insects, and the grandmother was also protected and grew up like this, just like me, but later, then she had to not be afraid of insects, because she had someone to protect, I don't know why, I was very moved.
I opened my mouth and licked the ulcer in my mouth, hiss, it hurts~ It was Pei Feng's grandfather who yelled at the little starling brother last time to break Xia De's mouth, and that time it was almost good, but people were unlucky to get up and drink cold water and stuff their teeth, and the toothbrush was pounded again when I brushed my teeth in the morning, and now it ulcers.
When my grandmother saw me licking my inner cheek, "Does it still hurt?" ”
"Hmm." I nodded, it hurt to eat, and so did the soup.
The grandmother went into the room and took out a jar of honey, dipped it with chopsticks, and said to me, "Open your mouth." I opened my mouth.
"Where?"
"Let's get inside, well, here it is! hiss...... "The honey was applied to the ulcer, and a cool and glutinous feeling suddenly spread.
"Swallow it for a while." My grandmother told me.
"Wouldn't it be better at night?" It's still daytime, and if you have to talk and eat something, it will affect the effect.
"Don't talk about it, aren't you in pain!" My grandmother touched my face and broke the cabbage.
Friday nights are always nice because you don't have to study late and don't have to worry about having a night study hall the next night. After dinner, the family grandmother tied a broom in the hall. There are two kinds of brooms, one is made of sorghum, and when the sorghum is ripe, take a picture of the millet inside, and the pole left behind can tie a broom, and the other is made of spotted thatch, and the flowers on the spotted thatch float away with the wind or manually shoot away, and then you can tie a broom. The broom made out of the spotted thatch is light and beautiful, and the floor is clean. The house milk is one of the few old people in the village who can tie a broom and tie it well, and the house milk is a good handicraft, so many people ask the house milk, and when the sorghum is harvested or the spotted thatch blooms, the house milk begins to tie the broom for free.
When the family milk tied two brooms, the spotted thatch was almost used up, I volunteered to collect some, although it was dark, but the spotted thatch was separated from my backyard by a wall, and the countryside slept late in summer, and every house had a lamp, which was not terrible at all, otherwise don't think that the family would agree to let me go out.
I went out from the gate and went around the wall by the bright moonlight, and the spotted thatch was flying, and I pulled out its long whiskers one by one, and here it was still a little tender, and it had to be sunned, and it would certainly not be used at night. I chose the older ones while smoking, that is, the zebra flowers are almost finished.
It's almost smoked, and suddenly a few "whoop~" sounds came out of the spotted thatch, like the sound of life, but it is crisper than life, and it looks like a little milk dog. I thought about it, but I left it alone, and I went home with a bundle of spotted thatch. After giving the thatch to the family, I went to the small water in the backyard to catch duckweed.
Fishing and fishing, something is wrong, there is something in the small water Tai, I quickly turned on one more light, it is a yellow thing, struggling in the water, my first reaction is a yellow owl! I was so frightened that I threw down the net and fled, the yellow cat can't be provoked, this is what the family grandmother told me to do.
I hid next to the chicken coop and watched this mysterious species from afar, for thousands of years there have been various theories about yellow cats, stealing chickens, stealing eggs, and becoming sperm, which is terrifying. I saw the yellow cat struggling desperately in the water, trying to swim to the shore, "puff puff puff pass-" hitting the water, looking strange and pitiful, I couldn't bear to see such a scene.
I think I'll just get it up, I don't touch it, it's absolutely fine. I suppressed the objection in my heart, slowly leaned over, I squatted down, picked up the bamboo pole I had just thrown away, the bamboo pole was a net at one end, used to fish duckweed, I handed it to the yellow cat, it saw someone, and paddled even harder.
I said softly, "I'm saving you, don't worry, you won't die." "The yellow cat is really as the grandmother said, very psychic, it relaxed its vigilance, its front paws grabbed the net, I pulled up, its claws released again, it looked very difficult, it wanted to hold on, but it didn't seem to have much strength, I simply scooped it into the net and slipped up.
As soon as I got it ashore, I put down the net again and ran, and hid to watch it, only to see it crawling out of the net wet all over, and every step was very difficult, and when it was completely exposed to the light, I realized that its two hind legs were completely caught in the clamps, dragging behind it, and drenched in blood. I felt a surge of blood rushing to my head, it was so cruel! That howl just now should be it, I can't imagine how it climbed over the courtyard wall from the spotted thatch side, it hurts to the bones!
I couldn't care about it so much, so I hurriedly stepped forward, "I'll help you break it open, don't be afraid, I won't harm you." "Its eyes are big, mist, looking at me, it seems to cry, I really love to cry, I have to give myself the title of "crybaby" to myself, I wiped my tears, the flesh and blood are blurred so that I can't tell the clip and the leg, its leg is so thin, it feels like it's about to break, I found out again, I really can't be a doctor, because I don't dare to see blood, I don't dare to touch it, it is very well-behaved, motionless let me touch it, I gritted my teeth, trembling to touch the clip, just touched, it trembled, I shrank back.
"Shhh I'm clenching my teeth. I found the mouth of the clamp and broke it hard, but the strength of the clamp was too great, I was sweating profusely, and the big eyes of the yellow cat were watery looking at me, I was distressed, and I broke it with all my strength, "Click-" finally opened, and it immediately crawled forward, dragging its two injured legs, crawling very hard, and it seemed that there was something urgent. The blood trail dragged out a trail.
"Where are you going, I'll bandage you before leaving." This time, it didn't seem to understand me, and continued to climb, in the direction of Xiaoshuitai. Why are you going back? Finally survived and still want to commit suicide? I followed it, and when it climbed up to the small water tower, it looked at the courtyard wall, and then looked back at me, "What's wrong?" Are you going over there? "It looked at the courtyard wall again, then at me, and repeated this many times, and then jumped into the water again, and I was stunned, what did it want to do? I picked up the net and tried to catch it, but this time it hid when it saw my net, and then swam desperately to the shore over there, and as soon as I went up, I was going to climb the courtyard wall, which was a place where there was spotted thatch, "Are you going over there?" "It kept climbing, sliding down and climbing, and sliding and slipping, and I couldn't stand it.
"I'll send you there! You don't climb anymore. I stretched my net towards it, "Come here, I'll take you there." ”
"Xuanzi, where are you going?" The house milk tightened a rope, cut it, and separated some spotted thatch from it.
"The spotted thatch I just collected is a little tender, I'm afraid it's not easy to tie up, I'll pick some more." I'm lying.
"It's a little late, don't go out, and bring a backpack, how much are you going to pick." My grandmother didn't approve of me going.
"Just a little bit, I also want to play by myself, like Tai Bai Xing and Taishang Laojun, how fun!"
The grandmother said, "Hurry up, pick a little and come back quickly." Then she shook her head helplessly, "What an adult, I just want to play, and I have time to read your uncle's medical books!" ”
I got to the spotted thatch, took out the yellow cat from the back basket, and when I put it on the ground, it was the same as before, desperately drilling into the spotted thatch, "Whoa~" Is there another one in it? It's not one, it's two!
I stuck my tongue out and followed up, and it was indeed two great highlights. I forgot to bring a flashlight, but I can see the outline of something in general. The yellow cat stopped near another bright spot, and I figured that this was the trap that the kid had made.
The yellow cat crawled to the entrance of the cave and barked a few times, and the inside responded, and the cry inside was the one I had heard before, and it was more crisp.
I fumbled, the clip at the entrance of the hole was taken away by the yellow cat, only the cage inside was left, there should be no mechanism, I carefully took out the cage, the inside was too dark, the small details of the switch could not be seen clearly, I picked up the yellow cat, and when I touched it, the hind legs were so sticky, oh my God, it was all blood! I hurriedly took the cage out of the spotted thatch, put them next to the courtyard wall, although the moonlight was bright, but after all, it was night, the light in the yard shone through the crack in the wall, and I saw the yellow cat inside, it was a very small one, I found the switch of the cage, and the little yellow cat inside jumped out and pounced on the yellow cat's body, whimpering. This is...... Mother and child?
