Uncle Niu looked back strangely. He didn't understand why Chen Dazhu went to the educated youth point to deliver firewood so early, but thinking that people in the countryside got up early, maybe Chen Dazhu had other things to do, so it was normal to deliver the firewood first.
.
The bullock cart slowly arrived at the county hospital. Chen Dazhu took out a dime from his pocket and handed it to Uncle Niu. Uncle Niu frowned in disgust, saying that Chen Dazhu was really stingy about giving a dime so early.
But when he thought that he usually only paid 5 cents for one person, and 10 cents was enough for two people, he kept silent, spent 2 cents to take care of the cow, and went to the hospital himself.
He remembered that the girl Cheng Qiao was also staying in the hospital. If the little girl wanted to go back, she could take his ox cart back, so she wouldn't be empty this time.
After asking several people, I finally found Cheng Qiao's ward. Cheng Qiao was already dressed and was about to leave. When she saw Uncle Niu, she couldn't help but feel strange.
"Uncle Niu, why are you here?"
Uncle Niu sighed and told what happened that morning. Cheng Qiao's eyes flashed and he realized that Wang Qin was poisoned by carbon monoxide, and it was Chen Dazhu who sent him here.
Li Huan even raised his eyebrows. He came early today and didn't know that something like this happened in the village. He also didn't expect that Chen Dazhu would get involved with Wang Qin. It seemed like there was something good going on again.
He looked at Lao Niutou and felt that he had come at the right time. He was also worried that it would be unsafe for Cheng Qiao to sit on the back seat of the bicycle. After all, the baby in his belly was also very important.
"I'll give you 20 cents for a ride, or I'll give you two big meat buns, you choose one."
“Big meat buns.”
Uncle Niu chose the big meat buns without hesitation. The big meat buns cost 10 cents each and also required food stamps. He didn't have any food stamps on him, so he couldn't waste such a good opportunity.
Cheng Qiao took out a large teapot, which contained large meat buns bought by the hospital. They were already a little cold and had to be steamed in a pot before they would taste better.
"Thank you, little girl. Uncle Niu, I like this one. It's soft and feels good in my stomach."
Cheng Qiao smiled and prepared to leave with a small package in his arms. Li Huan quickly picked up a large package and followed behind. During the two days in the hospital, the two of them not only sent supplies to Cheng Liguo, but also secretly added a lot of things themselves.
"My dear, you two are going to have a hard time in the future. You spend money lavishly and buy so many things."
"Uncle Niu, I'm going to be a father soon, so I should buy something for my son."
When he heard that he was buying something for his son, Uncle Niu felt depressed. Where had his son gone and when would he be able to come home?
Of course Cheng Qiao knew why Uncle Niu suddenly became unhappy, so he quickly changed the subject and asked about Miao Qing's family. When he mentioned this, Li Huan felt guilty.
Uncle Niu looked at Li Huan's guilty look and his mood suddenly improved. He vividly explained Li Huan's madness yesterday, which made Cheng Qiao smile.
Uncle Niu: "..."
I made a mistake and forgot that they were a couple and slept on the same bed.
"Daughter-in-law, you can't blame me. My mother was pushed to the ground by them and her back was injured. This shit ball also threatened my mother and Lele with a hatchet. Do you think I can give it a good fight?"
"Well done, what about the money? Have you got it?"
"Hey, even though I didn't get the money, Dung Qiu wrote me an IOU. If I don't pay it back within three months, the two hundred yuan will become three hundred yuan."
"Let me go, why are you playing loan shark?"
"What kind of belt is high?"
"Stop talking and go home."
In the end, Li Huan gave Uncle Niu twenty cents. It was not easy to make money, and besides, it was only five cents and ten cents. It was hard-earned money, and he, Li Huan, was not short of the money.
This time Lao Niutou strives for power rather than wealth. He doesn't want money, but wants Li Huan to get him some cloth and cotton. His trousers will be replaced with new ones, but his cotton-padded clothes will still be old ones.
Li Huan gave Uncle Niu a fierce look, ignored him and pulled Cheng Qiao into the house. Cheng Qiao covered her mouth and smiled. The two people seemed to be enemies, but in fact they were caring.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Qiao, how are you? Is your stomach okay? But you scared me to death."
"It's okay, what are you doing? Come on, go into the house and let me see your back."
"It's okay, it's okay. I know you are coming back today, but you have cooked something good. After you finish eating, go and have a good sleep."
"Thank you, mother, mother, I want to go to my master's house and see what needs to be sorted out."
"Hey, you're not tired. Let's sleep for a while. When Lele comes back from collecting firewood, let her go with you. The little girl can help a lot."
"No, mother, let Li Huan accompany me."
Seeing that Cheng Qiao couldn't be persuaded, Mother Li stopped and just asked them to go early and come back early. When the two came to Ye Jun's house, they had a bedroom, a living room, a woodshed, a kitchen, and a toilet. It was simple.
Incredible.
Cheng Qiao first changed the somewhat stiff bedding on Ye Jun's Kang, then added some cornmeal and white rice to the rice vat in the kitchen, and even filled half the oil in the oil vat.
Li Huan picked up the broom and cleaned the entire room. He also went to the kitchen to boil water and heat the kang, so that Ye Jun would not feel that the house was too cold when he came back.
Seeing that there were still clothes on the wooden stool that Ye Jun had changed out of and couldn't wash, he washed the clothes again, put a piece of soap on them, and then the two of them prepared to leave.
But when leaving, Cheng Qiao's eyes inadvertently saw a packet of seeds on the windowsill, and he couldn't help but pick it up and prepare to plant it in the black soil of his own space.
When Cheng Qiao returned home, he lay down on the kang after dinner, holding a book and comparing the seeds he took from Ye Jun's house, and realized what he had taken: wolfberry, honeysuckle, Atractylodes macrocephala, Tianqi, Ganoderma lucidum, Gastrodia elata...
…
There was also a seed that he couldn't find the source of after looking through a book. Instead, Li Huan saw what the seed was at a glance. It was a seed called Datura flower.
Hearing this name, Cheng Qiao's heart suddenly twitched. This is something that can anesthetize people. If...
Cheng Qiao, who had evil thoughts in his heart, disappeared without a trace in an instant. Li Huan smelled the fragrance remaining in the air and smiled on his face.
Cheng Qiao couldn't wait to plant the seeds of the datura flower first. When the red-headed viper saw Cheng Qiao appearing on the black soil, it was about to come over and saw the seeds of the datura flower and quickly backed away.
Cheng Qiao saw the action of the red-headed viper and smiled with satisfaction. She deliberately planted the seeds of datura flowers on the edge of the black soil, just not wanting to affect the growth of other crops.
I planted all the other seeds, but when the Ganoderma lucidum was planted, the red-headed viper came over again, obviously liking Ganoderma lucidum.
"You are so evil. You like good things. When my baby is firmly in the womb, we will go to the mountains to find ginseng."
The red-headed viper looked at Cheng Qiao with its bright eyes. Cheng Qiao reached out and stroked its snake head, feeling very emotional in her heart. People kept puppies and kittens as pets, so she got a snake.
