Chapter 61: Watering and extinguishing the fire
Chapter 61: Watering and extinguishing the fire
After cleaning up, Zhang Daniu stood in the yard and had to cover his eyes with his hands when he looked up. It seems that summer is coming, and the sun is getting more and more poisonous.
In the house, Zhou Yiran saw that a long time had passed, and the dishes and chopsticks should have been washed a long time ago, so she wanted to see if he was gone, so she opened her mouth and called.
"Big Bull?"
Zhang Daniu heard the voice, turned his head, turned around and went back to the kitchen, took out the medicine, and then went to the room.
Looking at Zhang Daniu, who walked in, holding a bowl of medicine in his hand, she remembered that she hadn't drunk the medicine yet. If he didn't drink the medicine, how could Zhang Daniu leave.
Thinking about it, the corners of his lips turned up, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I thought you were gone."
Zhang Daniu walked over, gave her the medicine, and said with a smile: "How come, I promised the lady that I would definitely abide by it." ”
After saying that, he stood here and watched her drink the medicine.
When she finished drinking, the candied fruit was in her mouth, she opened her mouth and held it, accidentally, touched Zhang Daniu's hand, Zhang Daniu's whole person was shocked, and quickly withdrew his hand.
Looking at Zhang Daniu's stiff appearance, she immediately pretended not to notice, put the bowl aside, and said, "I'm a little sleepy." ”
He spoke very fast, and when he finished speaking, he lay down and fell asleep.
Zhang Daniu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went out, took the bucket and went to get a bucket of cold water, and went to the back. At this time, only cold water can extinguish the fire in his heart.
When I came to the backyard, I stood on the stone slab, took off my shirt and pants, and left only a pair of pants, and reached out to take off the gourd scoop hanging on the wall. Scoop a scoop of water and pour it directly over your head.
A scoop of water went down, the whole person sobered up a little, it was very refreshing, and continued to pour...
In the room, after Zhang Daniu left, she heard some noises, got up and sat up, glanced at the window, and saw Zhang Daniu carrying a bucket of water to the back, and guessed what he was doing.
Inexplicably, she laughed heartlessly.
Suddenly, I was so happy that I lay down and fell asleep.
Zhang Da Niu's fire was extinguished, and when he went to the door, he first stretched out his head to look inside, and saw that the person on the bed was squinting and breathing steadily, so he went in with confidence.
Walk to the cabinet, gently open the cabinet with both hands, take out your own clothes, and change them here.
However, what he never expected was that when he walked towards the cabinet, the person on the bed opened his eyes.
Zhou Yiran looked at him shirtless, with clear muscles, without a trace of fat, and just when she stared at his upper body, he bent down and took off his pants.
She covered her mouth so that she could not scream. Hurriedly pulled up the quilt to cover his eyes.
Zhang Daniu glanced back, saw this, lifted his wet pants again, and left the room as if fleeing with his clothes and pants.
Zhang Daniu, who ran to the kitchen and closed the door, frowned.
"I and my wife are husband and wife, what am I running?" muttering these two sentences, Zhang Daniu raised his hand and scratched his head, not thinking about it.
I quickly took off my wet pants and changed them into dry ones, and when I put them on, I opened the kitchen door with my wet pants and threw them in the basket to wash them tomorrow.
Walking to the door of the room, whether he would go in or not, Zhang Daniu frowned and became entangled.
After standing for a long time, he finally turned around and went out with a hoe.
******
"Big Niu, come to turn the soil so early?" It was Zhang San who spoke, and he had just returned from the field.
Zhang San, Zhang Daniu doesn't like this very much, just because he has an improper relationship with Qiao Cuicui.
Zhang Daniu looked back at him, nodded, and did not speak again after answering "En".
Zhang San smiled, this big cow has changed a lot, since marrying his daughter-in-law, the whole person has changed and has become very diligent. This land has been barren for several years, and there will be no harvest this year when it is turned out to plant things, but this land used to be quite fertile, and I believe that there will be a good harvest next year!
Speaking of which, if Zhang Da Niu had given this land to others to plant, maybe it wouldn't have been like this, but this Zhang Da Niu would rather be deserted than planted for others, and everyone didn't know what he thought at the time, and gradually everyone forgot about this land.
In this way, this land has been barren until now, and if it weren't for watching Zhang Daniu mowing the grass today, he wouldn't have paid attention to this land. But this big cow seems to be too hard, with such a big sun, he actually ran out to turn over the soil, and he was not afraid of heat stroke.
I looked at it and left.
After Zhang San left, Zhang Daniu forgot to throw up the hoe, dug a large piece of soil, and then knocked it apart, picked up the grass roots and threw them on the road trunk.
Since it has not been cultivated for many years, there are a lot of grass roots, and there is basically a handful of grass roots when you dig a piece. Zhang Daniu looked at this speed and felt that he would have to dig for another day tomorrow. But tomorrow he has to go to the market, after all, he has to buy medicine for the lady, everything can be separated, this medicine can't be delayed, can't not be bought.
......
Zhou Yiran, who was in the room, frowned when she saw that Zhang Daniu hadn't come in for a long time.
Got up and stood at the window, looked out, and called twice.
"Da Niu, are you at home? Big Bull..."
Without the echo of Da Niu, he knew that Zhang Da Niu was not at home.
Looking at the sun outside, it was quite big, she frowned.
This damn Zhang Daniu said that he would go out later, he would actually go out this time, what should I do if I have heat stroke due to such a big sun? I couldn't go out yet, so I took two deep breaths to calm my breath, and then went to bed and went to sleep, too lazy to care.
Without her, this big cow is also alive and well, she is really worried.
After figuring it out, she fell asleep in a few moments.
She didn't sleep long this night, because she was either sleeping or sleeping now, where did she get so much sleep.
Fortunately, there were little seedlings in the morning, otherwise she would really be bored to death.
When she woke up, the sun in the sky was still so big, and she didn't know what time it was.
"Auntie." When she was worried about Zhang Daniu, Xiao Miaozi came in.
Looking at Xiao Miaozi, she laughed: "Come and sit." ”
Xiao Miaozi came over with a basket, she walked over, and Zhou Yiran saw clearly what was inside.
Needlework and thread, and a handkerchief embroidered with half a flower, which was quite beautiful, raised his head and looked at the little seedling.
"You embroidered this?"
Xiao Miaozi nodded.
"It's amazing, it's so beautiful." She's definitely not a lie, it's really good-looking, although she doesn't know how to embroider, but the visual feeling is that she thinks it's good-looking.
Xiao Miaozi blushed and was a little embarrassed.
"Is it really pretty?"
"Yes, it's beautiful." As he spoke, he reached out and took out the handkerchief from her basket and examined it carefully.
"But my mother said it wasn't okay." Xiao Miaozi said.
After hearing Xiao Miaozi's words, her eyes widened and she didn't believe it.
"Xiao Miaozi, your mother said that this is not good?"
"Yes." Xiao Miaozi nodded, reached out and took the handkerchief, and pointed to the place with different tightness on it, "It's not good here, and here." ”
Looking at the place where Xiao Miaozi pointed, she could see it, but it seemed too harsh! This is already very good, Xiao Miaozi is only ten years old, it seems good to be able to do this! No matter how much you like yourself, you can't do needlework, let alone embroidery.
Looking at the cloth of the handkerchief in Xiao Miaozi's hand, it seemed to be good, thinking that the peasant family didn't need it, so he said: "Xiao Miaozi, are these to be sold?" ”
Xiao Miaozi nodded: "Do a good job and take it to the town to exchange money." ”
raised his hand and rubbed Xiao Miaozi's head, and said with a smile: "Xiao Miaozi is so powerful, he will make money at such a young age." ”
"Auntie, you used to be the daughter of a rich family, and you must be able to embroider, is it good for my aunt to teach me embroidery?" Xiao Miaozi said this, there was no other meaning, purely to learn embroidery.
Zhou Yiran looked embarrassed and sneered: "Little Miaozi, my aunt doesn't remember what happened before, so I can't teach you." ”
After hearing this, Xiao Miaozi looked at her stunned, and then comforted her sympathetically: "Auntie is really pitiful, but Auntie don't be afraid, with Uncle Da Niu here, Auntie will definitely be happy." ”
Seeing that Xiao Miaozi trusted Zhang Da Niu so much, he laughed, and then agreed: "Yes, with your Uncle Da Niu here, I will definitely be very happy." ”
After hearing this, Xiao Miaozi became stupid, picked up the needle and thread, and continued: "I teach my aunt, maybe my aunt will be able to remember how to embroider." ”
It just so happened that she also wanted to take a look, so she nodded: "Okay, then there is Master Lao Xiaomiaozi." ”
As soon as Xiao Miaozi heard the word 'master', he giggled, and after the laughter fell, he began to embroider.
Watching the little seedlings pierce down one by one, and then back again, I was very careful. Why be careful, she understands this, because this is to be exchanged for money, and this fabric is expensive, if the embroidery is broken, it will lose money, and she expects this thing to be exchanged for money, how can she be careless.
Looking at Xiao Miaozi's embroidery, her hands were a little itchy, and she wanted to give it a try, but she couldn't help but do nothing.
At dusk, Xiao Miaozi's mother came and said some embarrassing things to her when she entered the door.
"I'm sorry, this kid didn't mess with you, did he?"
Looking at Xiao Miaozi's mother, Chen He, she smiled slightly and said, "No, she's fine here." ”
"Mother, I'm very obedient, I've been embroidering all afternoon."
After hearing this, Chen He's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Where are you?" Didn't my mother tell you not to embroider? ”
Zhou Yiran looked at Chen He and did not speak.
Xiao Miaozi turned around and brought the basket over, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, I have a very careful embroidery, and the embroidery is not broken." ”
"Silly child, my mother is worried that you will embroider your eyes." Chen He smiled and rubbed her daughter's head, then raised her head to look at the big cow daughter-in-law on the bed, "Big cow daughter-in-law, are you feeling better?" ”
"Thank you sister-in-law for your concern, it's much better, it's just Zhang Daniu's fuss, I don't hurt anymore, he doesn't allow me to get out of bed." She said.
Chen He smiled, and said good things for Zhang Da Niu: "Don't blame this big cow, the miscarriage is also a loss, if you can't raise it well, it will fall into bad problems, the big cow is also for your sake, and the patience will pass." ”
"I know." She replied with a smile, and then saw that they were still standing, and hurriedly said, "Sit down, don't stand." ”
"No, I still have to go home to make dinner, I just came back and didn't see the child, I came to look for the child." Chen He refused.
The two chatted like this for a few words, and then Xiao Miaozi went back with her mother.
