Chapter 4 A Book
"What?" Jiang Sanlang couldn't understand his daughter's speech as always.
"Qi, fish!" Ying Bao felt tired. "Fish."
Chun Niang smiled and acted as translator: "My daughter said she wanted to eat fish."
Ying Bao nodded repeatedly. Beauty is still smart.
"Haha, it turns out Yingbao wants to eat fish." Jiang Sanlang suddenly realized, "When dad gets back, I'll go down to the river and catch one!"
Yingbao:......
I bought brown sugar, measured a few liters of rice, and spent another ten cents on a bamboo-backed basket to hold things in. The remaining money in my hand had already been spent.
Jiang Sanlang put his daughter on the back of the bamboo basket, took his wife and rushed home happily.
After returning home, the little girl put her bed on the kang, and one of the couple made a fire and the other kneaded the dough, preparing to make some dough to reward themselves.
Ying Bao was very bored on the kang. She rolled around several times and simply lay down to sleep.
He took out a handful of shelled rice from his small pocket, quietly brought it into the cave, and placed it next to the stone wall with the various seeds collected in the previous days.
I secretly grabbed these from the grain storage at home a few days ago.
Ying Bao counted several soybeans, a handful of wheat grains, a handful of rice millet, and a handful of rice that he had just brought in.
It's a pity that she is too young and lacks energy, so her consciousness cannot stay in the space for too long, otherwise she will definitely plant them all.
While she still had energy, Ying Bao carefully looked around the cave.
I saw that the roof of the cave, the surrounding areas, and the soles of my feet were all made of hard stone walls, and I felt as if I was in a confined space made of rocks.
There is no passage in or out of the space, but she is clearly standing here, which is very magical.
Yingbao also discovered that some crystal white and transparent plants grew out of the cracks in the rock wall, which looked a bit like Wudingzhi.
These crystal white leaves are only the size of soybean grains, plump and plump, clustered together, and look like palm-sized hydrangeas. When pinched, the leaves will explode, and the slurry is sticky, like cactus sap.
The juice has a light and refreshing fragrance, and it dries quickly when applied to the hands.
The applied skin is as smooth as a layer of snow cream, and the lingering fragrance lingers for a long time.
This thing seems non-toxic, but I don’t know if it can be eaten.
However, according to the principle of the story, some heavenly materials and earthly treasures grow in mysterious caves or secret realms, so this crystal white plant may be some kind of heavenly material and earthly treasures.
Ying Bao was thinking wildly and decided to take some time out to feed the animals to see what the reaction was.
Unfortunately, she hasn't been able to find a suitable opportunity recently, and she hasn't been able to meet animals that she can come into contact with.
Of course, you can't use your own hens to try it. If they kick up their legs or don't lay eggs, you and your parents will be heartbroken.
Ying Bao looked at the cave for a little longer, but couldn't hold it anymore, her eyelids kept sticking together, and she fell asleep without realizing it.
In her sleep, she seemed to be walking in a fog. Suddenly, a golden light flashed in front of her, and a huge book as big as a table appeared. On the cover of the book were the following characters: Qian Gong Tian Jiao.
Well……
Maybe it’s because I haven’t read a storybook for a long time, so I can always dream about a book with such a popular title.
Turning to the first page, Ying Bao read it carefully, and several familiar terms jumped out on the page.
Chuanhe Town, Xichen Village, Qinchuan County, Chen Tiantian.
Ying Bao was stunned.
The place where I am is Chuanhe Town, Qinchuan County.
The one across the river is Xichen Village.
Also, the name Chen Tiantian was so familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
While he was deep in thought, suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and the book in his hand instantly turned into paper butterflies and flew away, making it impossible to catch him.
It's a pity that I just finished reading two chapters and I don't know what will happen next.
The content of these two chapters is actually very simple. It mainly talks about Chen Tiantian's beautiful appearance, well-behaved and smart, and also explains that she is a famous beauty in Qinchuan County and the family's only favorite little lucky star.
One day, a group of poor relatives from the countryside suddenly came to the little beauty's family.
It is said that the Chuanhe River flooded and destroyed many houses and farms. These relatives fled from the village and went to Chen Tiantian's mother, Xiao Han.
Ying Bao frowned.
Xichen Village suffered a flood and went to the county town to seek refuge with relatives surnamed Han.
This is exactly what happened when she was nine
Speaking of which, Chuanhe Town where she is located is close to Chuanhe River and will suffer from floods every few years.
However, the terrain of Dongxichen Village is relatively high. Whenever a flood occurs, only the crops and farmland are flooded, and the village houses are not affected.
When I was six and nine years old, there were two serious floods in Chuanhe.
When I was six years old, I remember that there were heavy rains just after the beginning of summer, and then the water level of the river rose until it reached Dongxi Village and surrounding villages.
People took their cattle and sheep and fled to Houbei Mountain or Xiaonan Mountain, which is higher. After staying on the mountain for more than ten days, the water level gradually receded.
The water in the village has receded, but the crops that were about to mature have disappeared. The river water in the fields has silted up, and it is impossible to replant for a while. Therefore, many villagers took their families and took refuge outside.
In the summer when I was nine years old, there were heavy rains for many days, and the river surged in. Not only did it wash away the stone bridge between the east and west villages, but ten of the houses in the village were left intact. Many villagers died in the unprecedented disaster. water.
Yingbao remembered that she fled to the county town with Chen Changping's family, and even stayed at the home of Aunt Han, the younger sister of her biological mother, Han.
Aunt Han comes from a good family. Her husband, whose surname is also Chen, is said to be a close confidant of the county captain. He is quite famous in the county. Even the chief bookkeeper and clerk of the yamen call him brother-in-law.
Aunt Han has two sons and three daughters. She usually calls her daughter "Da Ya, Er Ya, San Ya". I wonder which one of them Chen Tiantian is?
Before she could think for long, Ying Bao's consciousness began to become chaotic.
When she woke up the next day, she still had the dream from last night in her head, and her whole body was wilted.
Oh, it would be great if I could keep reading. The feeling of being whetted is really annoying.
"Bao'er, let's eat."
Chun Niang cooked thick and sweet white rice porridge and stewed an egg custard, stirred them together and fed them to her daughter.
Ying Bao stuttered and quickly finished a small bowl.
She needs to grow up quickly and be able to run and jump quickly so that she no longer needs to be cared for by her mother-in-law all the time.
"Bao'er was so good today. He finished a whole bowl."
Chun Niang put down the bowl, smiled and helped her daughter rub her belly, "Let me see, mom, is your belly stretched?"
Yingbao was ticklish, so she giggled and avoided Aniang's hand.
The mother and daughter were really having fun. Mrs. Jiang walked in carrying a basket.
"Mom is here." Chun Niang quickly stood up and went to greet her.
After the separation, although she and Weng Po lived in the same village, her mother-in-law, Mrs. Jiang Liu, rarely visited her house. Today, it was rare that she came to her house early in the morning.
However, Chun Niang knew full well that she was pregnant, and her husband must have told her mother-in-law.
The old lady put the basket on the table and looked at her daughter-in-law up and down, her eyes slipping to her belly.
"Sanlang said you were happy, so I came over to take a look. I happened to have some eggs saved at home, and your sister-in-law asked me to bring them over."
The old lady and her wife lived with the eldest son, and the management of the house was left to the eldest daughter-in-law.
Fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law was virtuous and sensible, so she picked up a few eggs early in the morning and asked her to give them to the third sister-in-law.
