Chapter 091: Gotta Take Me
That night, Xie Laogen had been sitting under the plane tree in the yard and smoking dry cigarettes, and Yao Wenjing knew that he was waiting for Xie Yuanjiu to come back.
Lying on his own small bed, he originally thought that he could fall asleep with his head next to the pillow, but he couldn't fall asleep after turning and turning, and then he finally fell asleep, and he didn't sleep well, and he always remembered the scene when the wolf pounced on Xie Yuanjiu in the cave, and then broke out in a cold sweat.
When she slept in a daze until midnight, she heard movement in the yard, poked her head out of the window, and found that it was Xie Yuanjiu who came back, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Xie Laogen was still there, Xie Yuanjiu's movements were very light, and he whispered to his grandfather.
"Grandpa, what are you waiting for me, come into the house and rest, it's heavy outside at night, don't catch a cold."
Xie Laogen took out the braised pork left for him, and he could smell the aroma of the meat from a long distance, Xie Yuanjiu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Because of the complete seasoning, this braised pork is many times more fragrant than the grilled fish eaten in the mountains.
"Jing girl made it, hurry up and eat it, it's a little warm."
He devoured it like he was eating, and Xie Laogen on the side watched him eat like that, and the heart that was hanging before finally fell.
"Xiao Jiu, you deliberately came back late, right, you are afraid that you will come back with Jing Yatou, those people in the village gossip about her, it is right to avoid suspicion, after all, you have been in for a few years, and those people like to say some nonsense, and then give you An an trumped-up charge."
Xie Yuanjiu snorted, and the inferiority complex in his heart rose again, one day, when the truth of Luo Jinshan's matter was revealed, he must tell everyone that he was framed by Feng Chunyan in front of everyone, and return his innocence.
But in fact, in his subconscious, he just wanted Jing Yatou to know the truth, as if only in this way could he straighten his back in front of her.
Other people misunderstand it, and it doesn't matter at all.
Yao Wenjing, who was lying on the bed, heard this, and then suddenly realized, at first she really thought that Xie Yuanjiu had something important to do.
Could it be that he ran up the mountain alone and squatted for several hours before he came back.
In fact, she doesn't care, why should she care about other people's opinions, and once again remembered the embarrassment when Xie Yuanjiu was wearing a sweatshirt with the words Northwest Labor Reform Farm written on it, but she didn't expect Xie Yuanjiu, who was hanging in front of everyone on weekdays and didn't look at anyone in his eyes, could have such a deep inferiority complex in his bones.
This man is really incomprehensible.
Soon, Xie Yuanjiu finished eating the braised pork, and he was even a little full, in front of his grandfather, he didn't care about his image, added some boiling water, cleaned the bowl, and then drank the soup, so he felt satisfied.
He took out the cordyceps he had dug up, and he looked a little excited.
"Grandpa, look, this is the cordyceps from the grass mountain on the top of the mountain, the quality is very good, and it will definitely be sold for a good price."
When Xie Laogen heard this, he was overjoyed.
"A few days ago, I saw a fight at the door of the commune Qian Fugui's pharmacy, this Qian Fugui was less weighed when he called Cordyceps, obviously he weighed 3 catties at home, but when he got there, he had to say that there were only 2 catties and 8 taels, you said that these two taels of Cordyceps were just dug up wet Cordyceps, and there were more than 100 roots, how long did it take to dig."
Grandpa's words strengthened Xie Yuanjiu's idea of not selling Cordyceps to Qian Fugui.
"Grandpa, I thought about it, I don't sell these cordyceps I dig to Qian Fugui, I take Cordyceps into the city and find a buyer in the city, I don't believe it, he can sell these things into the city with rich money, why can't I."
Xie Laogen was a little panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly objected.
"Xiao Jiu, our village is hundreds of miles away from Gaotang County, you are not familiar with the land, where can you find a buyer, you still have to bear with it, a little bit, at least insurance, just sell it to Qian Fugui."
Usually, Xie Yuanjiu usually listens to his grandfather, but this time, he directly refused.
"No, grandpa, you don't care about this matter, I have several friends in the county, don't worry, there is a way."
Yao Wenjing didn't expect Xie Yuanjiu's thoughts to coincide with his own, and he didn't plan to sell it to Qian Fugui, and he actually had friends in the county, so this thigh must be hugged, if you want to say that you are not familiar with life, you are.
She forgot that it was the middle of the night, and poked her head out of the window.
"Uncle Yuan Jiu, take me with you when you go to the county seat, and I will also sell Cordyceps to the county seat."
The grandfather and grandson, who were sitting under the plane tree and whispering, were startled by Yao Wenjing's voice, this girl was still listening to the corner in the middle of the night.
For some reason, at the thought of going into the city with Yao Wenjing again, Xie Yuanjiu was still a little excited, for fear that his grandfather would find out, and the good words blurted out were swallowed back by him, deliberately pretending to be embarrassed.
"Well, I'm afraid."
Xie Laogen only thought that this Xiao Jiu was worried that he and Yao Wenjing would affect Jing Yatou's reputation together, so he immediately made a decision for them.
"What are you afraid of, if you are afraid of the gossip of the people in the village, you can meet again when you get to the town."
When I got to the town, there was a shuttle bus to the county seat, but the bus only went once every three days, and it cost three yuan for the fare.
Yao Wenjing said it crisply, it was obvious that she was talking to Xie Laogen, but she was saying it to Xie Yuanjiu.
"Grandpa Xie, what are you afraid of, I will go with Uncle Yuan Jiu, let those who like to gossip let them go, I don't care."
This frank and unrestrained appearance made Xie Yuanjiu on the side a little embarrassed, and immediately agreed.
"Okay, I promise you to take you there, but it's still the same sentence, you will listen to me in everything after you go out, otherwise I won't take you."
Yao Wenjing secretly thought it was funny, this person was a paper tiger, when he was on the mountain, he didn't say that he had to listen to him for everything, and in the end, he didn't discuss everything with himself, basically according to his own will.
However, she was afraid that Xie Yuanjiu would not take her, so she immediately agreed.
"Okay, I listen to you, who made me your little follower, like in the mountains, if you say the east, you will never go west, everything is up to you."
Xie Laogen on the side heard it in a fog, what Yao Wenjing didn't say just now was that he met Xiao Jiu twice on the road, did the cordyceps all dig their own, it sounded as if they were all together on the mountain?
He looked at Xiao Jiu on the side and looked at Jing Ya who poked her head out of the window, and smiled suddenly.
"Okay, since there is a quiet girl to accompany you to the county seat, grandpa will promise you, go."
Yao Wenjing found that she seemed to have said the wrong thing on the way back, so she was a little embarrassed and hurriedly closed the window.
"Sleep, and Uncle Yuan Jiu, if you want to go to the county seat, it will take a while, and you can't leave yet."
Xie Yuanjiu was a little anxious, so he almost opened her window.
"Why?"
