Chapter 20 Inquiry

Cheng Linchang explained: "The ox belongs to Cheng Tiezhu's family, and his temperament is not bad, so I let him plow for a while......"

As her father spoke, Xianghua quietly pointed to the taro's ear and the mud spots on his clothes.

Taro looked confused.

Xiangmiao watched her sister play dumb riddles, and said loudly: "Brother Taro, my sister said that you still have mud on your ears." ”

The taro reached out and touched it, and sure enough, his face turned red, and he said, "I'll go wash it." ”

Xiangmiao ate and said, "Brother Taro looks so good in this dress." ”

Donglin said: "You are not ashamed. ”

Xianghua said, "What's so embarrassing about this? If it's good-looking, no one is allowed to look at it twice? ”

Donglin Zhenzhen said: "Why did that sister blush when she first saw Brother Taro?" ”

Xianghua was speechless for a while: "I'...... How can I blush? ”

She is more and more concerned about taro, and she really can't be blamed. You think the children in the village are either still dragging their noses or they are disabled, taro is born with a good skin, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome facial features, and he is eye-catching at a glance, and although he has few words, he is really good to people. Facing such a person day and night, her little heart can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Yesterday, the room between Taro and Donglin was also built, and today the two of them can pack up and move over. Cheng Linchang felt that his two daughters were older and should have their own rooms, so he took the bed quilt to the stove room for a few days, and then built a shack for himself in a few days.

In the beginning of spring, the people in the village are busy with farm work, Xianghua is worried about those few pepper seedlings, and runs to the mountains after eating every day. Sure enough, the buds were fully blooming, and in a few places they were already producing tiny green peppers!

Xianghua almost jumped three feet high. She looked around these pepper seedlings and looked at them, eager to dig them up and go home to offer them, but after thinking about it, she still gave up, in case she couldn't raise them, she didn't even have seeds.

"Mobao, where did this come from?"

Mo Bao smacked his lips: "Is the forest too big, there are all kinds of birds." There was a flock of birds from the south, and they often ate this fruit. ”

Southside? Did they bring the peppers here from the south? God is pitiful, these thin pepper seedlings actually survived, and when they bear peppers, she can get pepper seeds, and with the seeds, she can find a way to grow more peppers!

Xianghua thought about the red pepper field, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

The quails are also working hard, and now there are more than eighty quail eggs, and it is time for Xianghua to make another trip into the city.

"Why are you going to the city again?" Cheng Linchang looked sad, "The ground hasn't been turned over yet, and the weeds haven't been removed yet." ”

Xianghua took a sip of soup and said unhurriedly: "Dad, have you forgotten what I said to the shopkeeper of Xiangmanlou?" Almost, I have to call someone. ”

When she said this, Cheng Linchang remembered, but now it was the golden period of spring ploughing, and he didn't want to waste time on the road at all.

Xianghua also saw it, so she said, "Dad, if you don't go, then Taro and I will go to the city, and we will take Brother Tiezhu's ox cart and come back before dark, okay?" ”

Cheng Linchang is trustworthy to taro, and after thinking for a while, he said: "It's okay, you two should be careful on the road, take care of each other, and be safe." ”

Taro nodded to him and replied, "Uncle, don't worry, we'll be careful." ”

The two of them set off with some dry food, and Xianghua was familiar with everything on the road, and she quickly fell asleep as the ox cart swayed.

I don't know how long it took, the wheel of the car tripped on the stone, the body shook violently, Xianghua woke up immediately, and when he opened his eyes, Taiping Town had arrived.

Cheng Tiezhu stopped in the lane: "Get out of the car, I want to buy something, you are waiting for me at the city gate." ”

Taro jumped out of the car first, Xianghua sat numb in her legs, and couldn't move, so she saw Taro stretch out her right arm to her and let her help him get up, Xianghua used his hand to get out of the car.

Cheng Tiezhu saw all this in his eyes, snorted coldly, and left with his whip.

Xianghua came to Taiping Town once, and consciously became a tour guide, introducing while walking.

Someone recognized Xianghua and greeted warmly: "Yo, isn't this the little girl who made a great contribution last time?" You come to town alone, and you are not small. ”

Xianghua smiled and said, "I didn't come alone, there are still people." She glanced at the taro beside her.

The man groaned, "Who is this?" ”

"My family is a distant relative."

The man looked the taro up and down, the taro was quite disgusted, turned around, and Xianghua asked, "Is the county commander busy?" ”

"Something to find an adult? He's been quite idle lately. ”

Xianghua thanked this person, and came to the county government with taro, and the official at the door knew her, and after going in to report, someone came to invite them in after a while.

The county magistrate's face that had just finished the New Year was round again, and he drank tea, leisurely: "Xianghua, what are you doing this time?" ”

Xianghua replied: "My lord, just after the New Year, I naturally came to pay you New Year's greetings. ”

She kept two boxes of snacks sent by Zhao Xu, and sent them together this time, although the county order was not short of food, but seeing that she had this heart at a young age, the smile on her face was more.

"You're a smart kid, tell me, what's going on this time?"

Xianghua sat back in her seat and asked cautiously, "My lord, do you know Qingshan Village?" That's where I live, and something big happened around us before the Chinese New Year......"

The county commander's face changed, "What are you asking for?" ”

Xianghua saw that his face was wrong, and her mind changed, and she hurriedly said, "It's nothing, I just want to ask if the gang of robbers was caught?" ”

The county commander's expression eased up, and he frowned and said, "It's so easy." That gang of robbers is really rampant, killing and plundering all kinds of evil! I have reported it to the imperial court, and I believe that someone will be sent to arrest me soon. ”

Taro couldn't hold back and asked, "...... the corpses of those people?"

The county magistrate raised his eyelids and glanced at him, turned his head and asked Xianghua: "Who is this?" ”

"My cousin." Xianghua said with a smile, "I heard that adults are the most diligent and love the people, so I came to meet them." ”

Xianghua's sycophants were very good for the taste of the county order, and the county order nodded, and said unhappily: "Even so, there are some things that you children can't ask." Let's go back with some of the things I bought earlier. ”

Taro wanted to ask again, Xianghua quietly took his hand, bowed to the county order again and again, and hurriedly left.

As soon as he went out, Taro asked, "Why don't you ask?" Isn't that what you're here for? ”

Xianghua pulled him and strode out, and whispered, "You didn't see his face?" I can't ask anything more. Let's ask someone else, and they know for sure! ”

When the two officials saw them come out, they were about to make a joke, when they saw Xianghua take out a box of snacks and invite them to eat.

"Two big brothers, this is a gift from General Zhao Xiao to our family, the two big brothers have worked hard, let's eat a little!"

When the two yacha heard that it was given by Zhao Xu, they both felt that this snack was rare, so they excused themselves and took a piece and ate it. Xianghua has a match to talk to them.
