Chapter 19 Luck players
Early the next morning, Chu Nanzhi cooked a pot of porridge like yesterday, and went to the market to make up some vegetables after breakfast.
There are a lot of wild mushrooms that can be picked in the mountains this season, so she wanted to pick some mushrooms while it was still early and eat them with vegetables.
Maybe if you are lucky, you can find some wild game.
The family's money is running out, and Lin Jinxiao has to recuperate from his illness, so he has to plan carefully.
Thinking that if one day Lin Jinxiao no longer rejects her, she is going to check this guy's wound and see if she can find some good ways to heal him.
…
The back mountain is very large, surrounded by jungle and shrubs, and there is no end in sight.
It is such a hot and humid environment that makes many treasures grow in the mountains. There are many varieties of mushrooms growing alone.
However, she only picks what she knows.
Walking around in the woods, I picked most of the baskets in a short time.
Chu Nanzhi carried mushrooms on her back and walked on the path in the forest contentedly, thinking: If I can hunt only hares, pheasants, etc., it will be a good harvest.
Just as she had this thought, she suddenly raised her head, and saw a gray hare scurrying out of the dense forest.
The hare ran extremely fast, as if frightened by something, it ran forward madly.
Suddenly, the hare bumped into a big tree not far away, and immediately passed out.
Chu Nanzhi looked surprised: What kind of operation is this.
She approached slowly, walked up to the rabbit and touched it, but she was out of breath.
"Poor Tutu, I can't let you die in vain."
Chu Nanzhi sighed, picked up the hare and walked out of the forest in a hurry.
At the entrance of the village, a familiar cry came faintly.
Chu Nanzhi listened carefully for a while, she was very impressed by the cry, it was from Sibao Lin Ruijia.
She hurried towards the direction of the crying sound.
From a long distance away, I saw Sibao surrounded by several children crying.
While crying, she smeared mud on her face and clothes, making her whole body dirty.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't understand this operation.
She walked up to the group of children in confusion. Seeing that it was Sibao Niang, the children explained with some fear: "Can you believe me when I said we didn't bully her?"
The speaking child, Chu Nanzhi remembered, was the son of Zhao Erlang, a blacksmith at the entrance of the village.
"I"
Believe it or not?
Looking at Sibao who was crying like pear blossoms with rain, she was a little embarrassed.
At this moment, Zhao Erlang ran over in a hurry, without saying a word, seeing his son beat him up, and cursed at the same time: "Xiao Erlang, labor management told you not to bully other people's children in the village, you It's itchy again, isn't it?"
Zhao Erlang's son is the second eldest in the family, and he has an older sister. Everyone calls him Xiao Erlang. He is the largest among the children in the village. He likes to bully the weak and the weak most of the time. He is always scolded, even very harshly. .
Besides, because of the children's fights, some people have sued Mr. Lizheng, Zhao Erlang has a headache.
The children in the village know that quadruplets cannot be protected by their mothers, so they like to bully the four of them the most.
Xiao Erlang explained to his father with an aggrieved face: "Father, we didn't beat her, she cried by herself."
Zhao Erlang looked at Sibao's dirty face and muddy body, and grinned his teeth angrily: "You bastard, you said you didn't bully Sibao, look at her muddy body."
Xiao Erlang pleaded bitterly: "It was wiped by herself."
Sibao cried even more sadly when he heard the words.
Chu Nanzhi now finally knew why this little guy smeared mud on his body.
Zhao Erlang stared angrily, and cursed: "You bastard, why do you treat your father as a fool? Why is Sibao smearing mud on her body?"
Xiao Erlang had a bitter face, unyielding, and said: "She wiped it herself, if you don't believe me, you can ask them."
All the children nodded innocently.
Zhao Erlang was so angry that he vomited blood: "You bunch of unreasonable little bastards, dare to act but dare not to be, what kind of man are you, if you dare to go out with my little beast to do evil, I will not forgive you."
After finishing speaking, she ignored Chu Nanzhi, and dragged Xiao Erlang back home with kicks and kicks.
Chu Nanzhi wanted to explain to him, but this reckless man took himself for nothing, so she had to give up.
Waiting for all the children to disperse, she pulled up Xiao Sibao and wiped off the mud on her face, distressed and angry at the same time:
"Being honest, do you think all grown-ups will believe your lies?"
Little Sibao muttered: "It's just luck, Dad said that my brother and sister and I were born to be miserable, so we will get more blessings from heaven."
Chu Nanzhi was speechless.
Anyway, this little guy used his luck on this.
Sure enough, the child still has to be raised by his mother.
If it wasn't for his mother's backing, this little guy wouldn't be in this situation.
After thinking about it, she looked at Sibao again, and asked with a serious face: "Then what if you are unlucky?"
Little Sibao snorted coldly with disdain: "Walk by the river often without getting your feet wet. Anyway, when a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, it's better than being bullied all the time."
Chu Nanzhi felt sore in her heart, she couldn't help grabbing Sibao and hugged her regardless of her dirty body: "With me here, no one will dare to bully you anymore, you have to be an honest Good boy, stop deceiving people like this."
She knew that Tiejiang Zhao was afraid of going to Lizheng's house to sue again.
And Sibao touched the furry thing in her arms with both hands, and immediately broke free, his small eyes rolled around: "Where did the rabbit come from?"
"I picked it up in the mountains."
Chu Nanzhi slanted his back basket: "Look, there are so many mushrooms. If you promise me, I'll go home and cook rabbit meat for you."
"real?"
"Um."
Little Sibao was a little embarrassed, but looking at the extremely fat rabbit in her hand, he finally nodded with his little lips tightly pressed.
Chu Nanzhi was overjoyed, and took Xiao Sibao to the house.
When I got to the gate of the courtyard, I saw my second treasure, Lin Ruixi, sitting at the door, crying loudly, and Lin Jinxiao and the other two little guys were nowhere to be seen.
"What happened today?"
Chu Nanzhi looked puzzled.
As soon as he reached Erbao, he saw Lin Jinxiao walking out with difficulty on crutches, holding something in his hand.
Taking a closer look, that thing was the cloth bag she used to wrap the silver given by magistrate Hu.
She walked up to Lin Jinxiao in surprise, grabbed the bag, and asked loudly, "Where's the money?"
Lin Jinxiao replied with a helpless face: "I heard that Erbao was snatched by my family's Erlang."
Lin Jinhong?
His half-brother?
That's a rascal.
Chu Nanzhi suddenly felt bad, and looked around the room again: "Where are the three treasures?"
"Going after Erlang, my leg hurts badly last night, I didn't sleep all night, just now I fell asleep, and when I woke up, I heard Erbao crying."
Lin Jinxiao's eyes rolled, he hesitated to speak.
Suppressing the anger and bitterness in his heart, he finally had no choice but to calm down and say euphemistically: "Why don't you just forget about it, I'm afraid it will be quite difficult for Erlang's family this year."
After all, my legs and feet are not good now, and Lin Erlang's naughty temper is also clear to me. I am afraid that the whole family can't beat him now, but he doesn't want to show weakness in front of this woman, so he can only sigh helplessly in his heart.
"Put it lightly."
Chu Nanzhi glanced at him angrily, and didn't know what this guy was thinking, but with the money he earned, he played the heart of a bodhisattva: "You are optimistic about the second and fourth treasures, I'll go and have a look."
Hastily put down the basket and the hare, and hurriedly chased towards Lin Jinhong's house.
After chasing for a mile, I saw Dabao and Sanbao holding a man's thigh and refusing to let go.
The man was so angry that he punched and kicked the children, but the two little guys seemed to have taken root in him, and they couldn't get rid of it no matter what.
