Chapter 5 Digging a Pit and Burying Uncle

PreviousBack to directoryNext
We have already reached the winter warmth at the foot of Beishan Mountain, but no matter how Liao Mingkun reacts.

The days to come are still long, and you can’t stand the weird words?

Ah!

The original owner allowed him to study, and when he died of exhaustion before he was twenty, he didn't even see him shed a single crocodile tear.

Therefore, the bamboo spirit has to hold back any discomfort!

There is a particularly wide river to the south of Xiaowan Village. That river is also the basis for the survival of Xiaowan Village, because the water for irrigating the fields is used from that river. Of course, this river is shared by the two villages.

At the other end of the river is the climbing village.

To the north of Xiaowan Village is a mountain forest. Beyond this mountain forest is Huping County.

Xiaowan Village is a small village in Weishui Town under Xiangshui County, adjacent to Huping County.

Usually only hunters go into this deep part of the mountain forest. After all, the mountain forest is dangerous, so the children in the village who don't go to the fields just wander around the foot of the mountain, dig out bird eggs and pick some wild fruits.

No one dared to go deep easily. Even if they wanted to collect firewood, they would just walk nearby.

As a bamboo spirit, Dong Nuan is naturally close to nature, and she is not afraid of even the wild beasts in the forest.

Of course, except for the black and white round iron-eating beast!

Their natural enemy is the kind of enemy written on the food chain. Even the bamboo that has become a spirit is afraid of it!

However, Yuan Gungun does not live in their climate zone, so Dong Nuan can freely walk in the mountains and forests, and from time to time uses his original ability to produce a crisp, tender and juicy fruit.

After wandering around for more than half an hour, Dong Nuan not only had enough to eat, but also caught a plump pheasant.

In summer, the vegetation grows luxuriantly, and even the small animals in the forest become fatter.

Originally, Dong Nuan didn't want to use such good things to dig holes for the Dong family, but the fruits were too scattered. Old Man Dong felt soft-hearted and might divide them among his favorite grandchildren. In that case, he wouldn't be able to make better ones.

The effect of drawing hatred.

So, after much deliberation, Dong Nuan chose this pheasant.

This is the thinnest one that Dong Nuan carefully selected.

If it's too fat, wouldn't it make them cheaper?

As evening approached, Dong Nuan carried the fat chicken back to the village. Everyone she met on the road greeted them with a smile.

It's completely different from the original owner who was so reserved and didn't dare to raise his head when seeing people. Today's Dong Nuan seems to have a social disorder. Everyone he meets is his aunt or sister-in-law, and he has a sweet mouth and can talk.

Looking at the big fat chicken in Dong Nuan's hand, the villager who had something to do asked him.

Dong Nuan didn't hide this at all. She originally chose this time to come back to create some buzz.

So when someone asked about it, Dong Nuan said with a smile: "My grandpa worked hard. I originally wanted to pick some fruits, but I was lucky. A pheasant hit a tree and fainted."

"Oh, Nuan girl is so lucky."

"That's right. Just tell me where it hit you. I'll go take a look tomorrow."

"Go away, we are a family, let me do it."



Some people really want to try to ask the place and pick it up themselves, while others are joking.

The warm winter welcomes everyone, and anyone who asks will point out the place where he caught the pheasant.

Of course, it is impossible to point out the location of a deep mountain. Who would believe that a five-and-a-half-foot-tall girl like me would go into a deep mountain?

So, just point to a random place and remember where it is. If others ask again, just don't make a mistake.

Some people were thoughtful after listening to it, and they couldn't say they really believed it.

As for whether they can catch him or not?

I bumped into this one by myself. What does it have to do with your failure to catch my bamboo spirit?

Before Dong Nuan arrived home, her family already knew that she had brought back a particularly fat pheasant.

Mrs. Dong Wu's face, which had been suffering all afternoon, finally showed a little smile. She hugged her precious son and said in a low voice: "Your eldest sister has caught this, so you have to get a chicken drumstick anyway."

If your grandma refuses to give it to you, grandma will help you get it!"

When it comes to matters related to her son, Mrs. Dong Wu is extremely tyrannical.

However, the result was destined to disappoint her.

Because after Dong Nuan came back, he went straight to Old Man Dong, and other people in the family were also curious. How could a little girl like Dong Nuan catch pheasants?

Even if she gets lucky, it shouldn't be her.

Everyone gathered around to watch the fun, but Dong Nuan straightened his back, raised his head, looked at Old Man Dong with a proud face, and said in a crisp voice: "I know that grandpa has been working hard recently. I was lucky today and bumped into a pheasant.

Give it all to grandpa!"

Old Man Dong was sitting under the window eaves to enjoy the cool air. He was also shocked when Dong Nuan brought back a pheasant, but he was an elder, so he had to hold on and watch quietly.

As a result, Dong Nuan never expected that Dong Nuan would give him the chicken directly!

You know, the Dong family has emptied their wealth because they provided for Uncle Dong to study, and Old Man Dong refused to allow the family to be divided. The other brothers were already dissatisfied.

In order to alleviate the resentment in the hearts of his other sons, Old Man Dong said that the harvest from the fields would be returned to the father-in-law, and the family's food throughout the year would come from here.

During the off-season, each family would pay 70% of the work they took on privately, and the remaining 30% would be considered as each family's private money.

The chicken that Dongnuan bought today can be regarded as their private property, and they only need to pay 70%.

As a result, all the winter warmth was given to him.

This made Old Man Dong a little happy, and his heart felt warm. Looking at this skinny granddaughter, he was also inexplicably pleased with her.

To put it bluntly, who doesn’t like to be flattered and who doesn’t like to be praised?

Old Man Dong felt that the whole family was watching, so he couldn't just accept it directly. He had to push it three times and reject it twice, so that the whole family understood that Dong Nuan had forced it on him!

Thinking of this, Old Man Dong stood up with a smile, touched Dong Nuan's head and said: "It's a good thing for Nuan girl to be filial, but my uncle said that these are the private property of each of your houses, go back and give them to your dad.

.”

Listening to what Old Man Dong said, Dong Nuan's eyes widened, and his voice was crisp and high-pitched. Even across the fence, the neighbors on the left and right could hear: "My granddaughter is filial to my grandpa, and my dad is filial to my grandpa. Isn't that true?"

It should be right. Grandpa has been working so hard recently, so this pheasant should be given to grandpa!"

Mrs. Dong Wu had just come out with Dong Yao in her arms. After hearing these words, she was so angry that she rolled her eyes. If it wasn't Dong Yao she was holding in her arms, she might have pinched someone to vent her anger.

When he realized it was his precious son, it was okay.

"Nuan Ya, if your grandpa doesn't want it, just take it back." Dongwu was greedy for that big fat chicken, not only herself, but also her son.

As soon as Dong Yao heard A Niang speak, he immediately jumped down from the other person's arms, pinched his waist, and said arrogantly: "Sister, please take it back quickly, that chicken is mine, mine!"

As soon as the two women opened their mouths, Old Man Dong's expression turned ugly.

The second aunt laughed uncontrollably on the side, the sarcasm on her face was clear and she didn't hide it at all.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Old Man Dong is trying to get Qiao, and the two Wus and Dongs are so stupid that they can't understand their expressions and shamelessly dare to ask for anything.

Uncle Dong's family was still smiling and looking very friendly. Fourth Uncle Dong had no sense of existence, while Fifth Uncle Dong was staring straight at the pheasant, swallowing hard.

Dong Nuan glanced at Uncle Dong Wu calmly, and thought to himself: This hole was dug just for you, my dear Uncle Wu.

Surprised or not? Unexpected?
