Chapter 8: Red Fruit
Xiao Ruoyu had just eaten an hour ago, and he was not very hungry at this time, so he continued to sleep after eating for a while.
Zhou Daya's expected embarrassing scene of crying did not appear, gently patted the baby's back, and handed it to Du Ruoli after she was completely asleep.
Du Ruoli took her sister and didn't say anything or do anything, just smiled and nodded to her.
At this time, you don't need to say anything, you don't need to do anything, just appreciate it.
Affection is priceless and can only be exchanged for sincerity.
In the afternoon, we will continue to walk, and half an hour after dinner will be free time.
Zhang Xiuhe took out an oily paper bag from the bottom of the bag, and there were more than a dozen red fruits in the paper bag.
Red fruits are not just red fruits, they are boiled with roasted malt. Soak in water and drink a bowl, and the woman immediately returns milk.
She took the red fruit and found Zhou Daya's sister-in-law, Du Ruoqiu, who had just turned eight.
Du Ruoqiu held a stone with two sharp ends, squatted on the ground and dug it. It took a long time to dig before a thin grass root was revealed. I picked up the grass roots and put them in the basket, and suddenly I heard something behind me.
Could it be a small animal? Pheasant or hare?
The saliva in Du Ruoqiu's mouth bubbled up, and he hurriedly ran towards the place where the sound came from. Sadly, nothing was seen.
When she was downcast, a little red under the leaves caught her attention. She swooped over and opened the large leaves on it, revealing a lot of bright red dried fruits.
The fruit lies on the withered yellow leaves, which is particularly attractive.
She recognized that it was a red fruit, which was found in the mountains of her hometown, and it tasted sour and sour, with a hint of sweetness. It's also a good thing to do, and when my sister-in-law is pregnant, I like to take dried red fruits to soak in water and drink. She drank it and thought it was good.
I haven't gotten anything good for many days, but I didn't expect to meet red fruit today. Du Ruoqiu was crazy with joy, and picked up one and fed it to his mouth. After thinking about it, he put it back in the basket, picked up the red fruit from the ground and put it in the basket, covered it with a leaf, and trotted back to the ground.
Zhang Xiuhe hid in the dark, watching Du Ruoqiu take away the red fruit and return to the place where she settled and handed it to Zhou Daya, who took it happily, hurriedly threw it into the kettle, and boiled it on the fire.
That's it! Tomorrow she will be the only one in the team with milk!
She doesn't ask for much, one cub gives two buns, and she feeds them twice a day.
Zhang Xiuhe hummed a little song, and lay down on his feet briskly.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Zhang Xiuhe got up on time and walked a few steps away to find a convenient place. On the way back from lifting his pants, he heard someone calling "Aunt Seven".
Hearing that it was Du Ruoli's voice, she was deliberately lukewarm: "Well, Ruoli girl got up early." ”
"It's not early." Du Ruoli slowly approached, holding her right hand high, holding a lot of things inside?
Is it eaten?
Zhang Xiuhe's heart beat faster, guessing that there were good things waiting for her and how she should bargain.
Feeling the other party's hot eyes, Du Ruoli smiled slightly, took two steps, and stretched out her right hand in front of her.
Zhang Xiuhe looked over uncontrollably, and when he saw what it was, his pupils shook violently, and he couldn't move in place.
Isn't this her red fruit? They all look exactly the same, and they all match the numbers.
She saw with her own eyes that when she entered the kettle, what was about to enter Zhou Daya's stomach, why was it in Du Ruoli's hand?
Do they know everything?
Will it be reported to the patriarch?
If she kills her fellow clansmen, will the clan want her life?
The more Zhang Xiuhe thought about it, the more frightened he became, his face faded from blood, and only a piece of snow white remained. With a weak knee, he knelt down for Du Ruoli: "Auntie...... Auntie...... Beg...... Please...... Spare my aunt once...... Auntie doesn't dare anymore......"
Du Ruoli didn't speak, just looked at her like this, looking at her for a moment.
Yesterday at noon, Zhou Daya came to nurse Xiao Ruoyu, she knew that Zhang Xiuhe would be angry, and she had been secretly paying attention to her.
In the evening, Zhang Xiuhe really took action and "sent" the medicine to Zhou Daya's family to return milk, trying to cut off Zhou Daya's milk and monopolize the market.
Zhou Daya's family was in a plan, she went up to explain the situation, changed the medicine, and put it in front of Zhang Xiuhe.
Du Ruoli has been angry since last night until now, this person is cheating and cheating, and his heart is not right. Not to mention that they don't work well when they are paid, they also use shady means to squeeze out competitors.
She also didn't want to think about it, Zhou Daya's milk was gone, what would happen to her three-month-old daughter? Hungry to death?
For the sake of a steamed bun, he actually had a murderous intention! Selfishness to this point, there is no one left.
You must not be merciful to this kind of person, otherwise you may not be able to do something next time.
Du Ruoli put away the red fruit, squatted in front of her and said, "It's not impossible to spare you this time, it's just ......"
Zhang Xiuhe grabbed her sleeve tightly and asked eagerly, "It's just what?" What do you want? I'll promise you anything you want......"
Du Ruoli pulled back her sleeve and said in a light tone: "I want your belt, if you have harmful thoughts next time, I will say that you have an affair with someone." Let you be ruined and fall into a pig cage. ”
"No, absolutely not, you're asking for my life." Zhang Xiuhe tightly covered her waist, for fear that Du Ruoli would come up and snatch her belt.
"Oh!"
Du Ruoli patted the dirty things that didn't exist on her hands, and said slowly: "You only have two choices, either give me the belt or follow me to see the patriarch." ”
As he spoke, he glanced back, and two men came out from behind, one was Du Changgui, Zhou Daya's father-in-law, and the other was her husband, Du Zhixiao.
The two of them were fierce and vicious, and each carried a piece of rope in their hands.
Seeing that he was about to be tied up, Zhang Xiuhe no longer hesitated, quickly untied his belt, and handed it to Du Ruoli: "Auntie, I choose the former, you ask them not to arrest me." ”
"That's right! What good can it be to see the patriarch? Du Ruoli took the belt and put it in her purse: "Don't worry, as long as you don't think crookedly, I won't take out the belt for the rest of my life." ”
Zhang Xiuhe nodded like a chicken pounding rice: "Well, I definitely don't think crookedly." ”
"Okay, there you go."
Du Ruoli waved her hand, Zhang Xiuhe lifted her pants, and ran faster than a rabbit.
When she was gone, Du Ruoli said to Du Changgui and Du Zhixiao, as well as Zhou Daya's family who was hiding in the shadows: "I'm sorry, I have burdened you, if it weren't for sharing my worries, you wouldn't have been plotted." ”
The family shook their heads together, and the head of the family, Du Changgui, said, "The little girl's family, don't be so serious. I can't blame you for this, it's Zhang Xiuhe's wrong mind. Let's not be influenced by her, how should it be. ”
"I listen to my uncle." Du Ruoli nodded and continued to explain: "I didn't press her to death today because what she did didn't cause actual consequences, and sending it to the patriarch was just a few words of admonition, and it didn't hurt or itch." Instead of this, it is better to take advantage of her nervousness and fear, take her handle, and let her stop harming others. ”
"We all get it. If you don't understand, I won't support you. Du Changgui waved his hand and took his family to receive the meal.
Du Ruoli smiled and followed in their footsteps.
This family, it's really good.
