Ning Lazi sat on the ground and panted heavily. A large amount of sweat flowed down his forehead. He immediately raised his hand to wipe it. When he looked up, he saw Su Liu holding the rabbit and looking at him stupidly. He couldn't help but frown.
frown.
Taking out the hemp rope from his backpack, Ning Lazi tied the fat man Zhishu into a rice dumpling, cut off a wooden stick as thick as his arm, tied it on, and shouted to Su Liu: "What are you still doing?
Why don’t you come over and help.”
Su Liu reacted, yelled, stood up, and found that his legs were a little weak, and he fell to the ground tiredly.
"It's useless." Ning Lazi snorted.
Su Liu opened his mouth to retort, but when he saw the fat man, he closed his mouth in time.
This wild boar was so fat that even if the pork was sold for thirteen cents per catty, it would cost several taels of silver. Thinking of the shining silver, Su Liu's eyes shone.
After regaining her composure, she stood up again, first put the rabbit she had caught into the basket on her back, then walked to the wild boar and said, "Is it carrying it?"
"You go ahead."
Su Liu made a sound, counted one, two, and three, and then lifted the load, but the weight almost crushed her down again. She staggered, but finally she stood firm, and then she walked, but she still walked crookedly.
of.
Ning Lazi frowned and looked at it, then tried to lift the burden as high as possible, so that it would be easier for those walking in front.
Although this was true, Su Liu's face turned red soon, sweat dripped down in large drops, and her steps became a little weak.
"Oops." She accidentally kicked a stone, her body shook, and finally fell to the ground.
Ning Lazi hurriedly threw away the wild boar, stepped forward, knelt on one foot, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Su Liu was a little embarrassed, shook his head and said: "It's okay, I'll take a rest."
Ning Lazi lowered her head and saw that her hands were red. They were so thin, and her shoulders were red and swollen from the pressure. She couldn't help but feel soft. She put down the backpack on her body and said, "Forget it, I'll do it myself."
"Ah?" Su Liu was stunned.
Ning Lazi had already untied the backpack, put all the small prey in Su Liu's basket, and then carried the wild boar into the basket.
"Are you okay?" Su Liu blinked.
Ning Lazi didn't say anything, just spat into the palm of her hand, patted it, gritted her teeth, picked up the fat pig on her back, and walked forward steadily.
When Su Liu saw him, he had only envious fans. He was indeed a real man, so powerful.
"Wait for me."
When he returned to Ning Lazi's house, it was already noon. Su Liu quickly poured Ning Lazi a cup of tea from the teapot, being attentive and flattering.
After resting, Ning Lazi said: "This fat man probably weighs 250 pounds. Do you want meat or not?"
Su Liu's mouth watered just thinking about wild wild boar, but thinking that his bag was empty, he asked: "Uncle, how much money can this wild boar be sold for?"
"The wild boar that has not yet been bled to death can be sold for seventeen or eighty cents a pound. This one has been bled, so I estimate it will only be sold for fifteen or six cents."
Su Liu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Then sell it."
Although she also wanted to eat meat, but now in the Su family, she didn't want to cheapen the best food from that family, so she might as well exchange it for silver, which would be hers after all.
"The weather is getting hot, so we have to deal with it quickly." Ning Lazi stood up.
"Can I go with you?" Su Liu asked hurriedly.
Ning Lazi frowned. Does this girl know what it means to be fearful? She said calmly: "There are differences between men and women. How is it that you, an unmarried girl from Yunying, are following behind a grown man? It's simply
Nonsense!”
Yes, this tone again is like that of a master who talks about men and women all day long, with very old-fashioned ideas.
However, he was right. If people saw them coming and going like this, I don't know how it would spread. Su Liu scolded this old-fashioned evil for a few more times and said: "Well, if that's the case, I won't go.
.”
Thinking of his own rabbit, Su Liu was reluctant to sell it. He wanted to raise it and plan to use it as a rabbit breeder in the future, so he asked: "Then can I raise the rabbit with you first? Don't worry, I won't bother you."
I will take care of yours myself."
"Do you think this is your home or something?" Ning Lazi's face grew long.
Seeing that he was getting angry again, Su Liu quickly said: "Okay, just pretend I didn't ask."
Ning Lazi snorted and was about to carry the wild boar again when Su Liu stopped him again.
"What on earth do you want to do?" Ning Lazi was very impatient.
Su Liu shrank back and said coyly, "Well, can you give me my share of the money first?"
Ning Lazi was startled, and then sneered: "What, are you afraid that I will trick you? So what if I trick you? This wild boar was brought by me, but you didn't help me from the beginning to the end."
"No, no, that's not what I meant." Su Liu quickly waved his hand and said, "Even if you don't give it to me, it's still reasonable. I also know that I am taking advantage of it in vain."
"You are self-aware." Ning Lazi felt more comfortable.
"I know." Su Liu lowered his head, pursed his lips, and said, "It's just that I told you yesterday that my mother was going to divorce, and our sisters would definitely follow my mother out. Now I have found
house."
So fast? Ning Lazi was stunned.
"It's the haunted house in Bei'aozi. I plan to ask Li Zheng how much money that house costs. I want to buy it and live in it in the future."
Ning Lazi subconsciously looked at the haunted house on the other side of the mountain. He had heard a few rumors about that house. The place was not far from his place. It might have been abandoned for a long time, and it was relatively quiet and desolate, making it seem a bit spooky.
, plus the rumors of being haunted, how dare these women live there?
As if she could tell what he was thinking, Su Liu smiled bitterly and said: "I have no choice but to find a place to stay, or maybe it's not haunted there. If you want to go to Li Zheng's house, you can't go empty-handed.
, look at me, both bags are empty. Well, maybe I can borrow it from you, how about you lend me some money and I can pay you back when I have it later?"
Ning Lazi didn't say anything. He just looked at her intently for a while and looked into her dark eyes for half a minute. Then he turned around and went into the house, took out the copper coins always tied with a red string and threw them at her.
In arms.
Su Liu then narrowed his eyes with joy and said, "Thank you, uncle, thank you."
Ning Lazi glanced at her, picked up her backpack and walked towards the town.
"Uncle, walk slowly, I will close the door for you." Su Liu waved his hand, looked at Ning Lazi's back, and thought to himself, this uncle looks cold, but he is also warm-hearted.
Looking down at the pile of money in his arms, Su Liu's eyes were shining brightly, and he pursed his lips and made up his mind. He couldn't spend it carelessly this time. Moving out of the Su family was imminent, so he had to have money with him.
