Chapter Forty-Eight: The Great Treasure
Mo Bao stood on the branch and shouted, "Run!" And he flapped his wings and fled.
Xianghua beat a drum in her heart.
The wolf should be considered the smartest among the animals, she has a phoenix gem, and the wolf should not attack her.
But her composure did not last long, for the wolf, seeing that she was not moving, walked several more ways to her, and was already very close to her.
Xianghua panicked, hurriedly threw the branch at the wolf, picked up the ingots and ran.
The wind was whistling in her ears, Xianghua heard the thumping of her heart in her chest, and she ran while thinking about which route could go down the mountain as soon as possible, but people were not as good as heaven, she tripped over the vines under her feet and fell out.
When she rolled a few laps and finally stopped, she had already been smashed and dazzled.
Beside him was the panting sound of "ha, ha, ha".
When Xianghua looked at it, she almost scared her soul to Java - the wolf was right next to her, and the branch was still in her mouth!
She rolled over and sat up in fright.
When the wolf saw that she was all right, he put down the branch in his mouth and sat down not far from her.
Xianghua was horrified to see the wolf...... Start wagging your tail.
Well?
"Yuanbao, is it a dog?"
Yuan Bao shook off the grass clippings standing on his body and said contemptuously: "Of course it's a dog, look at the tail on its buttocks, it's about to fly." ”
Xianghua was dumbfounded.
This is indeed a dog, but a wild dog that has been thrown into the mountains since he was a child, has been mixed with wolves for a while, and he is quite "wolf" in terms of appearance and momentum, only the tail is too "dog" to hide at all.
And the dog seems to have decided that Xianghua is its owner, and he doesn't need to be greeted by Xianghua, so he follows Xianghua.
It followed it down the hill to Xianghua's house.
Cheng Linchang said: "It's also fate, as long as it is obedient, it will stay in our house." ”
The dog seemed to understand, barked twice happily, and sat down obediently at the door.
Xiangmiao and Donglin saw that it was beautiful, and they were going to play with it, Xianghua said that it was better to be careful, this dog had just come back from the mountains, and his temperament was not yet familiar, so don't play too crazy.
The two children obediently listened and did so, and the dog was also very clever and stopped at the point.
"Sister, let's give it a name!"
Xianghua smiled: "Okay, what do you think it's called?" ”
Donglin thought for a while and said, "Its head is quite big, let's call it 'Big Head'!" ”
Cheng Linchang waved his hand and said, "No, no, no." ”
Donglin said unhappily: "Why not? ”
"It's called Datou, and we still have a taro at home."
Xianghua looked at the taro when she heard this, and sure enough, the taro was a little unhappy on her face, and she couldn't help but laugh.
Xiangmiao said, "Then call it Dabao!" ”
Cheng Linchang nodded and said, "This name is good!" Come, Dabao, from today onwards you will be called Dabao, and we are old and married. ”
"Wang!"
Dabao wagged his tail happily.
In the next few days, Cheng Linchang saw what Xianghua was going to do with lime.
Xianghua first went to Granny Yuan's house and the village chief's house to buy a lot of duck eggs, all of which were white and green, cleaned and dried.
Then Xianghua found a large vat and washed it, mixing up the mess of quicklime, salt, and some tea leaves, and made it into a muddy thing.
Cheng Linchang couldn't help but say: "Xianghua, that's not how lime makes mud." ”
Xianghua smiled and said, "Dad, I know." Kanae, bring me the quail eggs I washed. ”
Xiangmiao answered, and Xianghua rolled the duck eggs and quail eggs in the "mud" one by one, all of them were dusty, and then rolled around on the wheat bran next to them, becoming "fluffy".
Cheng Linchang was confused.
Xianghua carefully placed the eggs covered with wheat bran in a dusty broken basin, with more than thirty duck eggs and more than twenty quail eggs.
This is the first time to make preserved eggs, Xianghua has only seen her mother do it before, and she doesn't know if she can make it, so wait a month to see it.
The mango seed arrived soon, Cheng Linchang and Taro went out early and returned late every day, busy with the sowing in their fields, and the rest of the village had no man or the man was not there, they would also help.
During this period, the shopkeeper Hu personally came once, saying that he was here to deliver the money for bean curd rice.
Xianghua asked, "Does the bean curd rice sell well?" ”
"Good! It's so good! The shopkeeper Hu said with a smile, "Our owner started to make it from the Xiangmanlou in Jinzhou, and now everyone in Jinzhou knows this dish, and many people line up to eat it and can't eat it!" ”
Xianghua covered her mouth and smiled: "That's good." You can also take some quail eggs back this time, and the paprika will have to wait for next month. ”
Shopkeeper Hu smiled and said, "Good, good!" ”
Xianghua asked again: "Is Boss Qian now in Jinzhou or Taiping Town?" ”
"I just arrived in Jinzhou yesterday and told us something, and since then our bean curd rice has become famous!"
Xianghua asked curiously: "What's the matter?" ”
Shopkeeper Hu said: "It was almost noon that day, a son entered our Xiangmanlou Building, and said that he wanted to eat bean curd rice." The shopkeeper over there said no, only three copies a day, please hurry up tomorrow. One of the guards next to the boy asked, 'What kind of good thing is it, it's worth it when our son comes three times and twice, and he can't eat it?' ’”
Xianghua couldn't help laughing: "How many times has that boy been here?" ”
The shopkeeper said: "The shopkeeper is a smart man, he has an impression of this son, he is beautiful, luxuriously dressed, and the location is always in the private room on the second floor. ”
"Is the boy here?"
"Here we are." Shopkeeper Hu said with a fluttering eyebrow, "That boy came when he came, and Xiangmanlou had just opened a store at that time. The shopkeeper hurriedly asked the inside to prepare a tender bean curd and send it out. Before Childe could move his chopsticks, the guard spoke again. He said, 'If Childe is not satisfied, don't blame me for smashing your signboard.' ”
Xianghua held her cheeks and guessed the plot behind: "That son must be very satisfied?" ”
The shopkeeper Hu sold a pass: "That boy tasted a mouthful of tofu, his brows furrowed, and he said, 'But Erer'." The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Childe, you have to dip and eat." Childe dipped and ate a little more, and didn't speak for a long time.
"If he doesn't speak, the guards will do it."
"Exactly. The shopkeeper was also anxious, but the boy only ate and didn't speak, and finally said with a red face, "What a strange smell!" And he left. ”
Xianghua also guessed that there would be such a thing, and said: "Peppers are not everyone's favorite, and you can also persuade you to eat this kind of spicy in the future, there is no need to eat it." But your Golden State point is okay, it hasn't been demolished, right? ”
Shopkeeper Hu laughed and said, "That boy left in a hurry that day, and the guards didn't care. The next day, our boss Qian personally sat in charge to prevent people from making trouble, and guess what? That boy is here again! ”
"What are you going to do?"
"I ordered another bean curd rice!"
