Chapter 4 Buying an Old Hen
Under what circumstances will a person find out in his conscience?
must have done something that I felt unconscionable!
Therefore, in the face of Luo Hao's sudden overture, Wang Yao's first thought was that Luo Hao gave his daughter away.
That's why she's calling her daughter's name so anxiously.
In the yard, the little girl who was watching the ants move, heard Wang Yao's voice, and immediately ran to the hall with her little short legs, and then walked into the bedroom from under the curtain.
Seeing her mother sitting on the ground, the little girl hurriedly stepped forward to hug her, and said anxiously: "Ma Ma, why did you fall?" ”
She tried her best to help her mother onto the kang.
But her strength was still too small, so she had to turn her head and shout, "Baba, come quickly!" ”
In the kitchen, Luo Hao, who heard his daughter's shout, immediately rushed out of the kitchen, and shouted nervously at the same time: "Minmin, what's wrong?" ”
When he ran to the bedroom, he saw Wang Yao sitting on the ground.
Luo Hao suddenly hurriedly helped him to the kang and blamed: "Didn't you say, let you have a good rest, I'll make lunch?" ”
After speaking, he looked at the little girl and said, "Minmin, what's wrong?" ”
The little girl shook her head and said, "Ma Ma fell down just now, and I couldn't help me up, so I wanted you to help Ma Ma up, and now it's okay." ”
"Surprise me!" Luo Hao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You talk to your mother, your father will cook, and we will have a good meal as a family of three at noon." ”
"Yay!" The little girl raised her hands and shouted excitedly, "Baba is the best!" ”
Luo Hao rubbed the little girl's head, glanced at Wang Yao on the kang, turned his head and lifted the door curtain, and went directly out of the bedroom.
In the bedroom, the little girl spread her arms and leaned on the kang, then lifted her little short legs hard, climbed onto the kang, came to Wang Yao's side, hugged her neck, and asked, "Ma Ma, what did you just call me for?" ”
Wang Yao gave a smile, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said, "It's nothing, my mother didn't see you, and I didn't feel at ease." ”
The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand, and then said with a smile: "Ma Ma, Baba seems to have really woken up." ”
"What woke up?" Wang Yao didn't know why.
The little girl explained: "That's what you said before, Baba is just confused for a while, and when he wakes up, he won't scold us or beat us." ”
After speaking, as if she was afraid that Wang Yao would not believe it, the little girl told her what happened outside the house again.
After Wang Yao listened, his expression became solemn.
Zhou Peng, the son of Liu Hongmei's family next door, is not easy to mess with.
If you do, it will be terrible!
On the other side, Luo Hao was in the kitchen, looking at most of the rotten vegetable leaves on the ground, as well as a few radishes with sprouts, his brows furrowed tightly.
His wife and daughters eat these all day long, and it is no wonder that they are malnourished and weigh so light that they make him feel distressed.
"No, you have to make up for it!" Luo Hao clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind in his heart.
He closes his eyes and tries to put his mindset into the current era.
After a moment, his eyes lit up.
He recalled that last night he took Duan Ergou to the construction site to steal steel bars and jaws, and sold them for a small two hundred yuan, but this morning he didn't wait for the account to be divided, so he ran back first.
I asked for the money, just for my wife and daughter, to improve the food.
Immediately, he walked out of the kitchen and shouted at the hall: "Wang Yao, Minmin, I'll go out and come back immediately." ”
"Baba, Min Min is waiting for you to come back!" The little girl ran to the door of the hall, put her hands to her mouth, and cried out with all her might.
On the kang in the bedroom, Wang Yao's eyes were dark.
She knew in her heart that Luo Hao said that he would come back immediately, and it would be basically impossible to see a figure during the day.
She forcibly moved to the edge of the kang and said, "Minmin, help your mother light the fire, and your mother will cook for you." ”
"Ma Ma, Baba said, he will come back later, cook for us, you can have a good rest." The little girl said very sensibly.
When Wang Yao heard this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Luo Hao came back to cook?
Is it possible?
However, she was so tired that she couldn't hold on, and she lay down on the kang, and she no longer had the strength to sit up.
……
"Two dogs! Two dogs! ”
Luo Hao came to the courtyard of Duan Ergou's house and shouted at the top of his voice.
After a while, Duan Ergou rubbed his eyes and walked out of the house.
He didn't sleep all night last night, so he was naturally sleepy.
However, when he saw Luo Hao standing in the courtyard, he was so frightened that all the sleepiness disappeared.
"Lao Hao, you ...... You're not going to be evil, are you? Duan Ergou thought of the morning's events and asked with palpitations.
"Get out of the way!" Luo Hao scolded directly: "You kid just fell into the evil spirit!" ”
Hearing this familiar tone, as well as the swearing, Duan Ergou breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lao Hao, you scared me out in the morning." Duan Ergou couldn't help but complain.
Luo Hao was in no mood to argue with him, so he went straight to the point and said: "Should you give me the money from selling steel bars and jaws last night?" ”
Duan Ergou put his hand into his pocket, took out a pile of money, and said angrily: "Can I still pit you for money?" It's been ready for you a long time ago, take it. ”
Luo Hao took the money, didn't even count it, and put it directly in his pocket.
Just as he was about to leave.
"Whoa, whoa!"
Suddenly, the sound of a rooster crowing.
Luo Hao paused, followed the source of the sound, and locked onto the chicken coop under the root of the wall.
"Lao Hao, are you hungry?" Duan Ergou said nonchalantly: "If you want to eat, let's slaughter one." ”
Luo Hao didn't answer, took out the money from his pocket, handed over ten yuan and said, "Ergou, I'll pay ten yuan to buy an old hen of yours." ”
"We have a relationship, you still raise money, isn't this a joke for me?" Duan Ergou said angrily: "If you want to eat, I'll catch one for you directly, and you can take it." ”
"Two dogs, one yard to one yard." Luo Hao insisted: "If the chickens were raised by you, then I would definitely take them away without saying a word, but these chickens were raised by my uncle and aunt, and I must give money!" ”
As he spoke, he forcibly stuffed ten yuan into Duan Ergou's hand.
Duan Ergou couldn't refuse, and said: "Then I will take advantage of you, these chickens will be sold in the market, and they will only cost five yuan at most." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, my wife and daughter are still waiting for dinner at home, you can catch me quickly." Luo Hao directly interrupted the topic.
Duan Ergou is not a twisted character, and immediately grabbed the fattest old hen and handed it to Luo Hao.
Luo Hao took the hen and rushed to the house non-stop.
However, just as it turned a corner.
saw that in front of the house, Liu Hongmei was scolding with her waist crossed.
Behind him, there stood a middle-aged man with a big shoulder and a round waist, who was none other than her son, Zhou Peng.
Luo Hao's pace slowed down, his eyes flashed a cold light, and he walked over step by step.
