When he got home, Li Changan was about to fill in the pit from last night, "Sister-in-law, the bricks piled up at the root of the wall outside, are they ours?" ”

"Well, yes." Liu Zhiyin was cooking wine, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and poked his head out to say.

Li Changan approached the pile of bricks and found that there were footprints on it, and it seemed that they had just stepped on it recently.

Frowning slightly, he walked around the wall, and had some guesses in his heart.

Li Changan carried the bricks into the yard, and Liu Zhiyin complained in a low voice, "I just went to the market to see, there are no hawthorn fruits to sell today, and Xiaolan also said that the orchards outside the city do not sell hawthorn fruits." ”

"It's really a black-hearted businessman, even if the price increases, I don't sell them out now, and I don't know how much the price will rise."

Li Changan shrugged his nose, good guy, my sister-in-law, you even scolded your brother-in-law, "Sister-in-law, I brought ten catties back here, and there is no shortage of hawthorn fruits." ”

Liu Zhiyin blinked in surprise, and his voice was raised a little, "Huh? Where did you buy this from? ”

"Sister-in-law will know tomorrow." Li Changan smiled and put down the bricks and continued to move.

"Okay, got it." Liu Zhiyin glanced at Li Changan, came out of the kitchen, and began to clean the hawthorn fruit.

"By the way, sister-in-law, when Sister Xiaolan Xiaofang comes later, you can tell them that these hawthorn fruits are leftovers from the previous purchase." Li Changan found the shovel and prepared to shovel and fill the pit.

"Huh?" Liu Zhiyin turned his head in disbelief, "If the hawthorn fruit is not sold that day, it will definitely not be fresh the next day, and Xiaolan Xiaofang and they will not believe it." ”

Li Changan said with a smile, "Bury the hawthorn fruit in sand, pour it with water, and keep it for two days." ”

"It's pretty much the same to be buried in the mud."

"When the time comes, my sister-in-law will directly tell Sister Xiaolan and Sister Xiaofang the method, if others ask, let them not hide their secrets, and answer all questions."

Liu Zhiyin looked at Li Changan suspiciously, and always felt that Erlang's thoughts were a little bizarre, and he couldn't figure it out.

It's like reading a book from the sky, the clouds cover the fog, and you can't see clearly.

"Tomorrow at noon, my sister-in-law and I will go out of the city together, and I will explain it to my sister-in-law when the time comes." Li Changan said with a smile.

"Then will you still sell rock sugar gourds tomorrow?" Liu Zhiyin subconsciously asked.

"Sell, but we have to change the style, and we have to do some other business." Li Changan shoveled the soil and poured it into the pit and stepped on it hard.

Lunch is simple, two steaming wotou, plus a small plate of pickles.

After eating, Li Changan tinkered in the study of the North House for more than half an hour, and went out with a paper.

Again to the blacksmith's shop.

The blacksmith looked at the two pieces of paper handed over by Li Changan, with a strange look on his face,

"This ...... What is it? ”

I just got two strange pots last time, why did I get a strange object this time?

"There are rats in the house, and this is a special mouse." Li Changan said very seriously.

"Are you sure it's a mouse?" The blacksmith's face looked even stranger, pointing to the mouse trap on the paper, "This must be nearly a foot long, right?" Are your rats bigger than dogs? ”

Li Changan nodded solemnly.

The blacksmith couldn't help but roll his eyes, unable to complain.

"And what is this?"

The blacksmith pointed to another piece of white paper, on which something was even more strange, as if the tails of four nails had melted together, and all sides were covered with sharp barbs, and they were not even, and no matter how they were placed, one of them would stand up.

"Some gadgets, not enough to worry about."

Li Changan said with a smile.

There is no way, there are no barricades in this world, so you can only talk nonsense.

"I can do it, but it's not too fast, and it's more difficult."

The blacksmith hummed, and the kid in front of him didn't say a word in his mouth that was true.

"Ten rat traps, a hundred of these nails."

"I'll come and pick it up at night, can I make it?"

"Yes, but only before the unitary time." The blacksmith took the paper and called out all the guys in the shop.

"How much?"

"Five hundred wen."

……

On the way to the evening market,

Liu Zhiyin followed Li Changan's side, "Erlang, what are those things you just dragged home?" How come I've never seen one? ”

"We've been selling good wine these days, and I'm worried that someone will get pink eye again, so I'll make some preparations in advance."

Li Changan explained lightly, and did not say the footprints on the pile of bricks outside the wall.

I was lucky to have a good evening market, and I added another wine shop, but I didn't ask for fifty catties at once, but I asked for twenty catties to try the situation first.

When he returned home, Li Changan arranged rat traps and barricade nails under the courtyard wall.

Then another layer of boiler ash was sprinkled on top.

"Sister-in-law, don't come to this place again in the future."

Li Changan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The barricade nails are just cast in a circle, but the mouse trap is really difficult to get, fortunately in the design, a crowbar was added, otherwise with the current weak body, even the splint would not be able to hold up.

Although his body has improved because of that mutation, his foundation is still too thin.

Liu Zhiyin witnessed the whole process with his own eyes, and was a little scared in his heart, no matter how he looked at these things, it was a little scary, "Erlang, will this cause death?" ”

"Don't worry, you'll only get hurt, not people."

Li Changan closed the door, placed two large rat traps at the door, and then sprinkled a few barricade nails to mark them.

The night is getting darker,

A dark shadow quietly approached the wall of the Li family and quickly hid in the dark corner.

"This sick man, the wine has been selling better and better in recent days, and even Lao Tzu's business has been robbed a lot."

"I'd like to see what secrets are hidden in your wine."

waited until the second half of the night, and the surroundings were silent, except for the occasional barking of dogs in the distance.

A dark shadow came out of the corner, and the moonlight was hazy, illuminating the man's face.

It's Wang Ergou!

"I should have slept."

Wang Ergou poked his head out, listened carefully, made sure that Li Changan and Liu Zhiyin had fallen asleep, stepped on the pile of bricks, and found that it was a little shorter, but it was not in the way, so he gently jumped up, climbed the wall, and then jumped down.

"Ah......h

A terrible scream pierced the silence of the night sky.

Wang Ergou's feet were pierced by barricades, and his whole body was trembling in pain, and he took two steps back.

"Click."

"Bang."

"Whew......"

The severe pain swept over like a tide, his right foot seemed to be broken, and Wang Ergou screamed in pain.

In the north house, Li Changan woke up suddenly, hurriedly got up, grabbed the bricks by the door and rushed out.

The lights in the East House are also on.

Li Changan carried a lantern in one hand and a brick in the other.

When I went out, I saw a black shadow from the wall, and I flipped out in embarrassment, followed by the sound of a cloth bag falling.

But the appearance of that person is a rough idea.

Liu Zhiyin also ran out wearing a jacket, and his face was discolored.

"Erlang ......" Liu Zhiyin grabbed the corner of Li Changan's clothes and didn't dare to let go.

"It's okay, sister-in-law."

"The big rat has already run away."

Li Changan said warmly with relief, but his eyes were extremely cold.

The king of the dog day, the second dog, you dare to climb over the wall!?

Liu Zhiyin was like a frightened quail, hiding behind Li Changan, with a pair of big eyes full of panic.

"Sister-in-law, go to sleep, and when it gets dawn, we'll go and deliver wine together."

Li Changan sent Liu Zhiyin back to the East House.

But Liu Zhiyin was still afraid, and his voice was trembling, "Erlang, who is that person?" Isn't it Wang Ergou? ”

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, don't think too much, leave everything to me." Li Changan said with a smile.

Closing the door, Li Changan sat on the stone outside the east room, "Sister-in-law sleeps peacefully, I am guarding the ...... outside"

The faint lights of the East House flickered, and the crescent moon in the sky slowly moved westward.

Li Changan put the bricks aside.

Only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days?

You have to be proactive.

Wang Ergou, we have to settle our accounts.

The cold wind blew from time to time, and Li Changan couldn't help but shiver.

The door behind him squeaked open.

The fragrance of jasmine came from me.

Liu Zhiyin hugged the quilt, and the voice in his mouth was as thin as a mosquito, "Go to the North House." ”

Yes?

Li Changan's heart trembled fiercely.

Miscellaneous...... What do you mean?

In the dark, Liu Zhiyin's face seemed to be dyed with rouge, and he was as red as a peach blossom.

A lot of chaos,

Li Changan's eyes widened, and he had nothing to love.

There has always been a fragrance around the nose, faintly, but it is fascinating.

The sister-in-law slept in the study of the north room, with only a curtain between the two.

Li Changan tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep.

There seem to be two villains in the mind who are fighting fiercely,

"Li Changan, Li Changan, she is the sister-in-law of the predecessor, what are you thinking?" The little white man shouted.

But the other black villain pressed the white villain to his stomach,

"You're you, the predecessor is the predecessor, want a hammer? Such a flower-like beauty......"

"Smack."

Li Changan slapped his head suddenly, wanting to shoot these two villains out.

"Erlang, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing, there are mosquitoes ......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Changan felt that he was stupid, now it's the end of October, where did the mosquitoes come from?

In the study next door, Liu Zhiyin buried his head in the quilt, and his pretty face was flushed.

It's a cold winter, and it seems to be a little hot.

A sleepless night,

When the sun rose in the east, Li Changan yawned with a pair of panda eyes.

Liu Zhiyin also got up, and when he saw Li Changan's appearance, his cheeks turned red, and he quickly quickened his pace, holding the quilt and trotting all the way back to the East House.

Li Changan walked into the study and looked at the stool that had been put together, "I have to get a bed and put it here." ”

"Do you want to build a kang?"

"If you wait for the cold winter wax moon, it will be much more comfortable to sleep on the kang......"
