It turned out that Xinghua had just pushed open the door of the courtyard wall of his house, and he saw a person walking towards this side from a distance, so he stopped, and when the person came closer, Xinghua saw that it was Ma Jingming, the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, what was he doing here?

I saw Ma Jingming's thin neck and long horse face, supported by a skinny skeleton, walking straight towards the apricot blossoms.

Xinghua didn't go forward to see what he wanted to do. Ma shrewdly stepped forward, a pair of small mouse eyes showing an evil color, staring at Xinghua's face and chest.

Xinghua was angry by his thief's eyebrows, she squinted her eyes, and asked coldly: "Isn't this the big housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, what are you doing at my house?"

"Hehe...... Ma Jingming laughed dryly, and asked in a weird manner: "Is your little brother-in-law Zheng Erhu at home?" ”

However, his thief's eyes were still flashing with the light of a thief, staring at the apricot blossoms.

Xinghua hated this dog's leg, especially when he saw the woman's lustful eyes, so she said angrily: "My brother is not here!"

"How could he not be? Didn't he just come back from hunting? Ma said shrewdly and angrily, then turned his head and looked at the apricot blossoms, and walked towards the courtyard.

Xinghua shouted: "My brother is tired of hunting and doesn't want to see you!

"If you don't see each other, you can see each other!" Ma Jingming said as he walked. He didn't care about Xinghua's attitude and cold words, because Xiao Gushan hated him too many people, he couldn't afford it at all, and he still had a good tone: "I have a big deal to find Zheng Erhu, and I have to see him." After that, he was distracted by looking at the apricot blossoms, and accidentally hit his horse face on the door frame of the gate of the courtyard of Erhu's house.

"Ouch-" Ma shrewdly exclaimed, and the pain was unbearable, and then he turned his horse face, bared his teeth, and walked into the courtyard.

Xinghua heard the sound of Ma Jingming being hit, looked at his embarrassed appearance, couldn't hold back her "giggles", and said, "Slow, I have to ask my brother if he has time to pay attention to you." ”

Ma Jingming turned around and said, "Then you should go and report it." ”

Xinghua shouted into the house: "Brother Erhu, Steward Ma is here." ”

At this time, Erhu had already walked out of the house, just happened to meet with Ma Jingming, and said, "Let him come in!"

As soon as Ma Jingming heard this, he hurriedly entered the house. Xinghua went to Aunt Zhang's house to find her mother-in-law.

As soon as Ma Jingming entered the house and saw that the two tigers ignored him, he sat on the edge of the kang with his buttocks, and only focused on sharpening a cow ear sharp knife for peeling his skin without raising his head or eyes.

In order to break the embarrassing anger, Ma Jingming gritted his teeth and asked, "Erhu, where is the knife?"

When Erhu heard this, he had to raise his head and said lukewarmly: "Hey, the big housekeeper is here, our family temple is small, I'm afraid I can't put you aside, the big housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, you can tell me something." ”

Ma Jingming had no choice but to get straight to the point and said: "Boy, what are you talking about? I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, my old lady fell in love with the silver fox skin you beat and wanted to buy it at a high price, I don't know what you think?"

"Didn't our family pay the skins of your Liu Mansion at the beginning of the year?"

"Erhu, you misunderstood, this time our Liu Mansion didn't let you enter and give it to us for nothing, but to buy it at a high price?"

"What? Buying at a high price? It's so fresh, when did your Liu Mansion ever buy Orion's skins at a high price? Aren't you always clever and robbed?"

"That's a mistake! we ......"

Before Ma Jingming could finish speaking, Xinghua walked into the house from the outside with her mother-in-law in her arms.

"Not for sale!" Xinghua said coldly.

"Yes, I just don't sell it! I don't sell it to anyone!" said the mother with an angry face.

"You ...... Why are you like this?" Ma Jing was obviously helpless, and said with a smile: "Hehe, aren't you hunting just to sell skins and sell them for a good price? As he spoke, he turned his eyes to Erhu Niang and said, "I said sister-in-law, you have also been a slave under the eaves of Liu's mansion, and we have served Master Liu together. ”

"You fart!" didn't mention that it was okay in Liu's Mansion, but the anger of the second tiger girl was even greater. If it weren't for the Liu family's loss of money and suspicion of Erhu Niang, Erhu's father would not have suffered an accident. Therefore, Erhu Niang has always been obsessed with the Liu family.

At this time, Erhu Niang was so angry that she trembled: "You dog girl, get out of me!" She was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Mother, don't be like them. Erhu was afraid that his mother would be angry, so he hurriedly walked to his mother and beat his mother on the back. Then, he raised his eyes and glanced at Ma Jingming angrily: "If you make me a bad girl, I'll ask you!"

Ma Jingming saw that the momentum was a little wrong, and said again and again: "It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, sister-in-law, you are dissipated, discouraged." As he spoke, he walked out of the city, for fear that the second tiger would reach out and beat him in a hurry, so he hurriedly walked out of the city.

Ma Jingming walked to the courtyard, looked back at Erhu's house fiercely, glared at his little eyes and scolded to himself: "Poor ghost! What is there to pretend to be in a dilapidated thatched house that is in tatters and scattered all over the place? Hmph, hit a broken silver fox and coax, wait, you are good-looking!"

After Ma Jingming left, Erhu was busy skinning the silver fox. Seeing that her son had caught so much game, the anger just now disappeared a lot, and she was busy helping Xinghua cook and stew pheasants......

After dinner, it quickly got dark and night fell. The night of Xiaogu Mountain is like a big piece of silk, and the stars in the sky are the jewels adorned on the silk, shining with dazzling light.

After a while, a crescent moon rose into the night sky again. In an instant, the night became charming and bright, and the quiet village took on a dark silhouette in the moonlight. The mountains behind, the grasslands in the west, and the Fat Hip River in the south became more and more mysterious under the cover of night.

The quiet atmosphere of Xiaogushan Village also permeated the house of Erhu's family. Tonight, Xinghua locked the door early, and Xinghua and her mother went to the house and lay down on the kang early.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Erhu woke up. For autumn came, and the crops in the field were ripe. Today he is going to help his family with the autumn harvest before going to school. It was supposed to take back the acre of corn that was on the edge of the Fat Hip River this Sunday. However, when he went hunting on the grassland, he didn't do the autumn harvest at home, and now he wants to squeeze in time to help his mother and Xinghua do more work.

Erhu got dressed and was just about to walk out of the door of his east wing when he heard Xinghua running into the house from outside and saying, "Brother, brother...... Something happened to Liu's Mansion, something big happened!"

Erhu rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "What's the big deal?"

"When I went to our field just now to break buds, I heard that two cattle in Liufu were bitten to death by steppe wolves last night!"

"Well, the poor families in that village didn't suffer any losses, right?"

"No, his cattle were bitten to death, anyway, his cattle do. Xinghua said without pity.

"Oh...... That's good. As soon as Erhu heard that as long as the poor family's livestock was not bitten by wolves, he was relieved. Hmph, the wolf ate the Liu family's cattle, he deserved it! That is retribution, his Liu family not only offended the poor, but also did not even let the wild wolf let go of his family, what a happy heart!

"Sister, why did you get up so early? I wanted to get up early to break buds with you, but I didn't expect my sister to break back two big boxes!"

"Erhu, you don't need to work in the field, you still go to school, our family is just a few thin fields, and my sister can harvest in the autumn alone......"

Erhu and Xinghua were talking, and Liu Zihao, the landlord of the uninvited guest, accompanied by the housekeeper Ma Jingming, the head of the courtyard, Yang Jun, and the herd of cows, walked into the house......
