Chapter 22 Take them into the ravine and sell them
Qiao Huaping came out of the cave, and the starry night, I don't know when, was already obscured by a large gloomy dark cloud.
Probably on the mountain again, the dark clouds hung low like a canopy, with a sense of oppression that the black clouds were pressing down on the mountains.
Even when Qiao Huaping breathed, he could feel the humid moisture in the air.
It's going to rain!
The three villagers who were keeping vigil made a fire outside and fell asleep around it.
Qiao Huaping pushed them and pointed to the sky: "It's going to rain, hurry up and call everyone outside and go into the cave to hide from the rain." ”
The three villagers suddenly shook their spirits, sobered up instantly, looked up, and found that it was really as Qiao Huaping said, the sky was overcast like this, and it was obviously going to rain.
The three villagers who were keeping vigil hurriedly went to wake up the villagers who were sleeping under the rock wall and told them to go into the cave to hide from the rain.
The people outside hurriedly hugged the covers and hid in the cave.
The footsteps were noisy, the people were also messy, and several caves were crowded with people for a while.
Several children of the Mei family were also woken up, Mei Qingying's little face was full of sleep, and she was shrinking in her eldest brother's arms with sleepy eyes, and she was still a little overwhelmed.
Lightning and thunder roared, and heavy rain poured down.
Qiao Huaping took out all the water bladders and took some water.
Many villagers reacted, and for a while, the entrance of the cave was crowded with people receiving water.
On this night, few people could get a good night's sleep.
The cave was crowded with people and chaotic, and many people were busy fetching water, so naturally the whole cave was in a noisy and stuffy atmosphere.
Qiao Huaping has the habit of forcing herself to recover her strength at any time, even if the cave environment is not good, she also seizes the time to take a nap.
When they woke up in the morning, most of the villagers were tired and sleepy because they had not rested well.
It's Qiao Huaping, who is in good spirits, looking like he can go out and run twenty miles immediately.
The four children of the Mei family are in good spirits because they have taken water drops.
However, although the rain stopped outside, the rain was really heavy at night, the mountain road outside was muddy, and most people did not rest well, so the village chief decided to repair in the cave for another day.
In the early morning after the rain, the summer heat dissipated a lot, and the air smelled of fresh grass.
Many people want to cook, but it has just rained heavily, and the newly picked firewood outside is wet, where can they get it?
can only gnaw dry food.
Their eyes all looked at the Mei family.
On the Mei family's side, there are a lot of branches!
What is this, this is firewood!
Qiao Huaping slowly rolled up his sleeves in the envious eyes of everyone, and instructed Mei Qingyao: "Yaoyao, you and Yingying stay here with us, and I will take Yuyu and Huanghuang out to do something - I took a lot of effort to bring these firewood back last night when it didn't rain, you have to take care of it." ”
Mei Qingyao sat up vigilantly: "Why are you going?" ”
Qiao Huaping smiled: "Take them to the ravine and sell them!" ”
Mei Qingyao's eyes widened.
Qiao Huaping was overjoyed: "Just kidding, I'll take them to find us something to eat." It's finally raining, and that's a good thing. ”
Mei Qingyao will be skeptical.
Mei Qingyu didn't say anything, but Mei Qinghuang was already excited: "Something to eat!" Let's go! ”
"......" The two elder brothers, they simply don't look at this greedy younger brother.
Qiao Huaping took Mei Qingyu and Mei Qing out of the cave.
The mountain road outside is really muddy, and the road is very difficult to walk.
Qiao Huaping led the two to a weedy field overgrown among the bushes.
"There's food here?" Mei Qinghuang's eyes were full of doubts.
Qiao Huaping smiled but did not speak, and with a flick of his foot in the grass, a black insect jumped up.
Qiao Huaping pinched the black insect quickly, and lifted it up to Mei Qingyu and Mei Qinghuang to see: "Look! ”
It was a round bug with a black body, antennae, and elytra on its back.
Mei Qinghuang was stunned: "What you said to eat, that's it?" ”
He was obviously a little difficult to accept, "You tell me, it's not true. ”
Qiao Huaping smiled ruthlessly: "This is true." Let me tell you, this thing is called Shanshui Oil, and it's delicious. Only after the rain at this time of year, they will come out, they are all big treasures - when the time comes, cut the wings, wash them, put some oil in the pot, simply stir-fry, and sprinkle some salt, that fragrance, will definitely make you think about the second time after eating once! ”
Mei Qinghuang shook his body, he was a snack and couldn't accept it.
Qiao Huaping didn't care about him, she reached into the blanket, and took out two old cloth bags of rice from the space that she had picked up at the other side before.
Qiao Huaping gave Mei Qingyu one: "Your third brother is a little weak chicken, let's ignore him first, catch him first." ”
Mei Qingyu was actually a little speechless, but he felt that he couldn't show his cowardice in front of Qiao Huaping.
He took the cloth bag, and according to the method taught by Qiao Huaping, he tentatively swept his foot among the grass, and sure enough, a black landscape oil jumped up.
Mei Qingyu pounced on it and covered it!
Mei Qingyu forgot anything else for a while, and couldn't hide her joy and picked up the landscape oil in her palm and showed it to Qiao's painting screen: "I caught it!" ”
Qiao Huaping gave a thumbs up: "Oops, awesome!" Yuyu, let's compare with each other, see who catches more! ”
Mei Qingyu glanced at Qiao Huaping, and said in her heart, her exaggerated praise was to fool him as a child.
Mei Qingyu didn't realize it, the corners of her mouth were grinning, and she responded a little reservedly: "Okay." ”
The two began to frantically grab the oil in this meadow.
Mei Qinghuang watched from the side, and her heart itched.
It seems to be fun......
Qiao Huaping is an adult in the end, and she quickly raised the cloth bag in her hand triumphantly: "I've already caught so much!" ”
Mei Qingyu pursed his lips, and he grabbed a bottom.
Mei Qinghuang immediately said: "Brother Yu, I'll help you catch it!" ”
Brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are golden.
The two little ones fluttered in the grass after the rain for a while, and finally grabbed a bag full of mountain oil.
Mei Qingyu was about to show off with Qiao Huaping, but Qiao Huaping had already pounced and hugged the two little guys: "Oh, our Yuyu and Huang Huang are too powerful!" ”
Mei Qinghuang smirked.
Mei Qingyu said in her heart, this woman really fooled them like children.
But thinking so, Mei Qingyu still laughed brightly.
Qiao Huaping took Mei Qingyu and Mei Qinghuang and walked to the cave with two bags of landscape oil.
Before she reached the cave, her enhanced sense of hearing heard the voice that belonged to Mei Qingyao in those noisy sounds.
He seemed to be a little embarrassed, and his words were a little stammering: "...... Otherwise, you wait for that person to come back, and then you can ask her. ”
