Chapter 47: The Wild Boar
Xianghua was taken aback, and she didn't dare to show it on her face, so she only asked: "How much does my sister plan to sell for a plate of bean curd rice?" ”
"'Bean curd rice'?"
Xianghua laughed: "This dipping bean flower can be used for rice, I will call it bean curd rice." ”
Qian Xiaoman smiled: "You can call it whatever you want." I estimate that this bean curd rice cannot be sold cheaply, and it is estimated that it has to be at the same price as mandarin fish and puffer fish. ”
Cheng Linchang smacked his tongue: "That...... So who can afford it? ”
"Uncle, don't worry, there are so many people who can afford to eat!" Qian Xiaoman asked people to take out a hundred taels, and he wrote a note on the desk, explaining that he had just paid according to the number of plates, and handed it to Xianghua.
Xianghua blinked and took it obediently.
The last time the 100 taels were saved for half a year plus the "strong support" of the slam of money, and now there are 100 taels for a meal and dividends?
Xianghua felt as if she was dreaming.
Qian Xiaoman took out a shrimp bracelet from his hand and wanted to put it on Xianghua. Xianghua hurriedly excused herself.
Qian Xiaoman said with a smile: "I just worshipped my sister, I didn't have time to prepare anything else, this bracelet is my beloved thing, I will give you a chat to express my heart." ”
Xianghua couldn't shirk it, so she had to accept it.
The family sent Qian Xiaoman into the carriage together, and watched the carriage turn around before walking back slowly.
Cheng Linchang was still fluttering, and asked in disbelief: "The one hundred taels we just sent out, turned a corner and came back?" ”
Xiangmiao nodded and said, "This is called good retribution." ”
Taro turned his head and saw Xianghua smiling thoughtfully, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xianghua took off the shrimp bracelet and put it away, and asked, "Dad, where is the lime?" ”
"There is lime in Taiping Town. But no one likes to run that far, they all dig stones in the mountains and burn them in a kiln at the end of the village. Why, do you want to use lime? ”
"Well, some are needed."
Cheng Linchang said: "Then I'll go up the mountain and carry some back." ”
Xianghua smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad!" ”
Cheng Linchang said embarrassedly: "This kid, what do you say to your father?" ”
After lunch, Xianghua and her father were divided into two ways, taro looked after the house, and taught the two children to learn to write.
The taro said, "Don't you know how to read and write?" You have to stay and learn. ”
Xianghua excused herself and said, "I'll come back to study in the evening." ”
Taro didn't believe it, "You washed your face and screamed to sleep, where is the time to learn?" ”
Xianghua stuck out her tongue and said, "Mr. Taro, I will definitely come to learn tonight!" ”
There was no way for Taro to take her, so he could only let her go.
Xianghua sneaked up the mountain and took out delicious food from the back basket to entertain Mobao and ingots.
"Eat more and eat more, our family can be like this now, thanks to the help of the two of you!"
Mo Bao said unceremoniously: "The crow is still waiting for the bright sparkle!" ”
Yuan Bao finished eating the fish and licked his paws: "The matter of the Red River has been dealt with?" ”
Xianghua said: "It's not over, the village needs to build a dam, and the river needs to be dredged, otherwise next year will be the same as this year." ”
Yuan Bao nodded, "Just remember." ”
Mo Bao felt that he was being pressed by ingots everywhere, and he wanted to say something important at this time, so he said: "There is a wild boar stuck in the quail field, and the quails were frightened yesterday." ”
"Wild boar? What are you stuck? ”
Mo Bao shook his head: "I don't know, it screams so earth-shattering, the crows don't dare to go over!" ”
Xianghua thought: Quails have always been timid, and there is such a big boar crying wolf next to it, I am afraid that it will affect the laying of eggs.
"I'll take a look."
Mobao flew up: "Come with the crow!" ”
"Right ahead!" Mobao landed on a branch, "The wild boar is fierce, you be careful." ”
Xianghua nodded and tiptoed over.
Perhaps tired from struggling and screaming, the wild boar's swarthy body lay on the ground, panting and snorting from time to time.
Xianghua had seen wild boars, and the strength and fangs of wild boars could kill, so she didn't dare to get too close. But she could already see what was trapping the boar, a big iron clamp.
Looking at the traces along the way, the wild boar should have been caught elsewhere, and then desperately struggled to climb here, and finally couldn't climb anymore, its hind legs were already bloody and blurred.
Xianghua asked in a low voice: "Yuanbao, is the phoenix gem useful for wild boars?" ”
Yuan Bao said coldly: "Of course it works, but I don't know if this wild boar is stupid or smart." ”
Xianghua: "You'll be caught in a trap, how smart can you be?" ”
The sound of this sentence was a little louder, and the wild boar immediately noticed that there was movement around him, and immediately got up vigilantly, looked around, and snorted.
"Who? Where to sleep? ”
Xianghua knew who it was as soon as she heard this silly voice, and since she could talk and communicate, she wasn't afraid of it.
She first lifted the ingots and shook them, indicating that she had no malicious intent, and then slowly stood up.
The boar instinctively lowered his head when he saw her and took an offensive stance.
Xianghua hurriedly waved her hand: "Don't be afraid, I don't do anything, I just want to help you remove the things on your legs." ”
The wild boar shook his head angrily: "Don't believe it! ”
Xianghua Yile: Why does this pig still have an accent?
Xianghua said softly: "Really, you see I'm only so big, if I don't want to save you, I'll go, but in three or five days, you will lose too much blood and die." ”
The wild boar knew that he was weak, so he lowered his guard and said, "Then you come here!" If you play tricks, you will be poked to death! ”
Xianghua raised her hand and walked out: "Okay, I know." ”
The big iron frame bit so tightly that Xianghua used all the strength to break it open, and the wild boar immediately pulled out his legs.
The wild boar pulled out his legs, but just stood at a distance and stared at Xianghua, and did not rush to escape.
Xianghua whispered to Yuanbao: "What does it mean?" ”
Yuan Bao also whispered: "How can a cat understand the mind of a pig?" ”
Xianghua pursed her lips and said softly as she could: "Now that the thing has been removed, if your injury is serious, you can come to me-"
Before he finished speaking, the wild boar was gone.
Xianghua was stunned for a moment and exhaled: "Hey, I finally saved my quail and pepper." ”
It's all her gold ingots and money strings.
"When I take Xiaoqingshan down, you can come to my house often to play, and we don't have to sneak ......"
After Xianghua thought about it, she hummed a song pleasantly, and it was time to collect the peppers again.
When she finished harvesting this stubble of chili peppers, Yuan Bao suddenly stood up in alarm, and Xianghua also straightened up to observe the surroundings, and instantly her breathing stopped-
A wolf silently appeared where the wild boar had fled.
How did the wolves get here? Wild boar blood?
Wolves come in packs, what about the other wolves?
Xianghua looked around quickly, there was no other wolf, just that one.
Cats and dogs have never dealt with each other, let alone wolves. The ingots had already exploded, squinted their eyes, and let out a threatening low roar in their throats.
Xianghua also plucked up her courage, picked up a branch next to her, and said to the wolf, "Go, go." ”
The wolf was completely unmoved, and even took a few more steps to her side.
