Chapter 21: Practice
Bu Linglong looked up, hurriedly walked to the old lady's side, and asked worriedly: "Mother, are you uncomfortable, I'll show you." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to check the old lady's pulse.
The old lady held Bu Linglong's outstretched hand, smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, my mother is happy, happy." ”
Bu Linglong thought that the old lady's happiness was because she called her mother in a hurry just now, so she didn't go to her heart, after the mother screamed, she didn't feel awkward, and it was quite natural.
Old Mrs. Lin wiped the tears from her face, "Where did you go early in the morning, why didn't you say hello." ”
"I went out to exercise in the morning, and when I got to the bottom of the mountain, I ran into an adult deer in my hand, so I went to town, I thought I would rush back, but I didn't expect it to be delayed for so long."
"Adult deer?" Old Lady Lin's voice suddenly became a little sharper.
"Well, it was sold for sixty-eight taels, and I saw that the bowls at home were broken, and the adults were barely able to use them, and the children were easily injured, so I bought some and came back to replace them."
"Linglong, although you can do it, my mother doesn't want you to go into the mountain, it's too dangerous." Even though the old lady witnessed Bu Linglong's skills, she was still not at ease, afraid of what to expect.
"Didn't I promise you that I wouldn't go into the mountains. I'm going to do something else. She doesn't plan to keep selling game for money, it's not a long-term solution, and she still needs to have a stable livelihood.
Now she seems to have a lot of money in her hand, but in fact she doesn't have much, and as soon as she buys the shop, most of the money goes out.
"I'll support you in whatever you want to do." As long as she doesn't go into the mountains, she won't object to what Linglong does.
"I haven't thought about it yet, so I'm not in a hurry. However, today I need my mother to go to Uncle Quan's house again to see if Uncle Quan has come back, and the carriage must be made out, otherwise it is really inconvenient to get in and out. "If you get a horse for nothing, you have a sum of money left, and a pair of frames won't cost a few dollars.
"I've been there, your uncle said that it can be done in six days, a total of four taels of silver, and I gave a deposit of one tael." The old lady had always taken this matter to heart, and had been paying attention to it, and she had already gone to say hello in the morning.
"Really, that's great, next time we can go out together." Bu Linglong said with a smile.
The old lady sorted out the dishes and chopsticks that Bu Linglong bought, "By the way, Aunt Six came over today and praised you for the deliciousness of your meat buns, she has never eaten such delicious meat buns." ”
It's not so easy to make a living here, after all, their family is old, small, and there is no shelter behind them, Zhang Yang is easy to be regarded as a thorn in the side, and there will definitely be people looking for trouble.
It's too small, it's hard, it's not easy, it's a small profit, and it's thankless.
She had to find a modest job and still earn money.
But this is not in a hurry, the matter of the house is solved first.
"Mother, can we build a new house now?" The original body doesn't go out much, and I don't know much about the villagers in this village, but the old lady knows better.
"What?" The bowl in the old lady's hand was almost shattered by her.
"Can't you?" Bu Linglong frowned slightly when she saw her reaction so big.
"It's too ostentatious."
"Then I'll fix the house first." Summer is coming soon, and it's a rainy season, and this house can't afford to rain down!
"If you don't find someone to do it, it's almost enough to repair the house for a tael of silver." She was reluctant to let Linglong repair the house by herself.
"It's very simple, I'll just do it myself for a few more days." This house won't last long, so why waste a tael of silver.
"I'll help you." Seeing that Bu Linglong insisted, the old lady was not persuading, it was a big deal for her to help do it together.
"No, I can do it alone, you can help me take care of the children." The adobe stuff is ready-made, and as long as it doesn't rain lately, the house can be repaired quickly.
"Okay." The old lady agreed, but as for the action, it may be.
After taking a bath at night, the three little cubs followed Bu Linglong back to the room to sleep.
The three little ones didn't dare to get close to her, a certain distance from her, "Do you still want to listen to the story today?" ”
"Yes." As soon as Sambo heard the story, he immediately lay down on her right hand.
Erbao also slept on her other side, and even Dabao moved closer to this side a lot, and thought about the story in her head, she still told the story of an animal, and before the story was finished, the three little ones were already asleep.
Bu Linglong covered them with quilts, closed her eyes and slept.
At night, she didn't sleep well, the three small sleeping positions were quite well-behaved, but she was not used to sleeping with others, and she almost kept her eyes open until dawn this night.
She glanced at the sky outside the window, turned over and got up, and at this time Dabao also woke up and sat up.
Bu Linglong saw that Dabao woke up, and asked with a faint smile on her face, "Dabao, did you sleep well?" ”
"Hmm." Dabao rubbed his eyes and replied softly.
Bu Linglong got dressed and began to wake up the other two children.
"Erbao, Sanbao, it's time, get up."
The three treasures moved before the two treasures, and they woke up as soon as they screamed, and called out to their mothers in a daze.
Bu Linglong picked up Sanbao and let him lean into her arms, "Can you get up?" ”
"Well, you can get up." Erbao blinked, rubbed and woke up.
Bu Linglong rubbed his hair: "Can you dress yourself?" ”
"Yes." Sambo nodded matter-of-factly.
"The three treasures get dressed first, and the mother tells the two treasures to get up."
Erbao, the little guy, was not so easy to wake up, "Erbao, get up." ”
"No, sleep a little longer."
"Erbao, if you sleep for a while, we won't take you."
After Erbao hid in the quilt and listened, he opened his eyes and looked at Bu Linglong's face, and he was not used to it all of a sudden, and he was startled.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's my mother." Bu Linglong picked him up and rubbed the little hair on his head.
After Erbao hugged Bu Linglong for a while, he came back to his senses: "Is it time for my mother?" ”
"That's right, Dabao and Sanbao are up, and it's up to you." As he spoke, he pinched his fleshy cheeks.
"I'll get up now." Erbao let go of Bu Linglong's neck and began to put clothes on his body one by one.
When Erbao was dressing, Bu Linglong picked up a comb to comb Dabao and Sanbao's hair, but their hair was still relatively dry and sallow, and they couldn't be in a hurry to improve this matter, so they raised their long hair high and formed a ponytail.
I also gave them a dress, which made them look a lot more energetic.
When the two treasures were dressed, Bu Linglong copied the process of Dabao and Sanbao, and the three cute babies were born.
Pull the three children to wash first, and it has been dark all these days.
Looking at the three little guys standing in front of him, Bu Linglong changed his previous kind appearance, and his face was full of seriousness, "Let's do warm-up exercises first and open up our bodies." ”
Erbao is a curious baby, incarnated as a hundred thousand why, "Mother, what is a warm-up?" Why do you want to warm up? ”
"Warming up is to prevent injury when you train later."
The three little cubs seemed to understand whether they understood or not, and followed Bu Linglong to make movements.
Bu Linglong didn't teach a single movement, she would correct them again, and after the warm-up, she started running, and at first she asked them to run in the yard with her.
The yard is not big, it is not small, it is small for Bu Linglong, but it is just right for the three cubs.
She first let the cubs trot five laps, and then let them take a horse step, the practice must start from the basic skills, the basic skills are not solid, everything is in vain, and the basic skills are the most difficult, and the most boring, only rely on their own perseverance to persevere.
"Hands straight, waist straight, body down." Bu Linglong lit an incense stick and inserted it in the incense burner before starting to correct their movements.
"This pillar of incense burns the ashes, and you can rest." They're too young.
Erbao's hands hung down as he lifted them, and Bu Linglong looked at him with sharp eyes, "Erbao, raise your hands." ”
Erbao looked at Dabao and Sanbao, and saw that they were all lifted straight, gritted his teeth and raised his hands again.
Time passed little by little, the sun slowly rose in the east, and when the old lady came out of the room, she saw a big and three young people in Zamabu, their faces and bodies were covered with sweat, she just glanced at them and did not disturb them, and went straight into the kitchen to prepare breakfast, and boil bath water for them.
The time of a pillar of incense passed quickly, Bu Linglong took his posture, and said to the three cubs: "Okay, let's get here today first, you can rest." ”
As soon as the words fell, the three cubs sat on the ground with their butts, gasping for breath, "Mother, are you so tired from practicing?" ”
"Or else? This is just the basic skills, and it will only get more and more tired in the future, can you still persevere? Bu Linglong took out Juan Pa and squatted beside Erbao and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"I can hold on." Although he was tired, he was able to persevere.
"What about you?" Bu Linglong wiped a bowl of water flat, wiped the second treasure, and then wiped the sweat of the big treasure and the third treasure, and asked with concern.
The two little cubs were so tired that they couldn't speak, and they could only nod their heads to show that they could persevere.
She pulled up the three little cubs sitting on the ground and patted the ash on their bodies, "It will be more tiring at first, but I won't feel tired when I get used to it." Let's go, let's eat. ”
"Mother, are you serious, you won't get tired when you get used to it?"
"Well, after getting used to nature, you don't get tired. On the contrary, it will feel more and more relaxed. ”
"Well, we won't let you down."
"Let's go, wash your hands and eat."
Bu Linglong walked to Dabao's side and wanted to hug him, but he avoided him, and ran to scoop water and wash his hands.
Looking at Dabao's back, Bu Linglong didn't say anything, this kid still has a pimple in his heart, so he can only take it step by step!
Mrs. Lin brought breakfast to the courtyard, saw Bu Linglong standing there in a daze, and stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong Linglong?" ”
"It's okay, I'll wash my hands." Bu Linglong shook her head and went to the water tank to fetch water and wash her hands.
The old lady did not suspect him, and sat down on a chair to wait for her.
The old lady made a relatively simple breakfast, steamed buns with a small plate of pickles, in this era such a breakfast is already very good, no one can eat white flour steamed buns and white rice every day.
But Bu Linglong will not be picky, she has already suffered in the last days, and there are many days when she can't fill her stomach, and now she has nothing to find fault with filling her stomach.
After breakfast, Bu Linglong took the three cubs to rest for a while, then bathed them, put the clothes they had changed last night and just changed into a basin, and took them to the river to wash.
The well water in the village is used for practical purposes, and you have to go to the river to wash clothes and so on.
Fortunately, it didn't take much time for the Su family to do so in the past, otherwise it would be a hassle to wash clothes.
Sujia Village is located quite far from the river, otherwise a well would not have been dug in the center of the village.
Running into no one along the way, she smuggled a bar of soap out of the space and put it in a basin.
When she reached the river, there were already three or four women washing their clothes.
When the women who were chatting saw Bu Linglong coming, they immediately stopped talking and consciously stayed away from her.
Bu Linglong guessed that it should be the hand she showed yesterday that scared her, this is the effect she wants, this is good.
She casually fetched water from the river and began to wash her clothes.
Bu Linglong did not beat her clothes with a mallet like them, but scrubbed her clothes with soap, and soon a fragrance wafted out, and several women stopped what they were doing and looked up!
"Erni, is she using fragrant pancreas?"
The woman named Erni glanced at the soap in Bu Linglong's hand, frowned, and said, "Impossible, fragrant pancreas are precious, who will use them to wash clothes, how extravagant." ”
