Bai Banxia remembered that before, Sanlang said that he didn't care about eating their food and that he had good food to eat. In all likelihood, it was Wang Taohua who gave it to him.
Saburo is really the kind of person who can be bribed with just a few mouthfuls of food.
"The Wang family is in such a situation now, but they are still happy with you. You don't know, Taohua is really big-hearted." Bai Tian shook his head and said.
"She's not big-hearted, but she has no brains. Isn't this a letter to Qi Zhen? You didn't give it to him?" Bai Banxia asked.
Bai Tian winked at his daughter, "Who told me to see it first? Why don't we and I have fun first?"
"Pfft, dad, you didn't show it to mom?" Bai Banxia couldn't help laughing again.
"Your mother will know it if she sees it, and the whole family may know it. Maybe even the neighbors will hear it. What if Qi Zhen is too shameless to get angry with us?" Bai Tian made a hissing gesture. His daughter-in-law has a loud voice. He is
clearly.
At this time, the kitchen door was pushed open, "I'm not thin-skinned."
Qi Zhen walked in with a dark face. He had good ears and was grinding outside. The father and daughter were laughing so loudly in the kitchen. How could he not hear them?
Others may not be able to hear the content clearly, but they heard it even if they didn't want to hear it.
Bai Banxia held back her smile, handed the letter to him, and said jokingly: "I was about to give it to you. As soon as your eyes could see it, the letter came. I understand the situation quite well. It seems that I really care about you."
.”
Qi Zhen refused to answer, "Burn it."
"It's so heartless, why don't you take a look at it." Bai Tian said while suppressing a smile.
"I'm blind again." Qi Zhen's face turned dark. Bai Banxia hurriedly elbowed her father to signal him to stop. Those who say they are not thin-skinned are often very thin-skinned.
Bai Tian couldn't hold back his laughter and hurriedly found an excuse to go out to have his colon cleaned.
Bai Banxia held the letter in front of Qi Zhen, "You really don't want to read it?"
"I'm blind!" Qi Zhen repeated it again, as if to say that this thing is too spicy for the eyes and will make you blind.
"Oh, it's nothing. My master's hometown sent a lot of love letters. My master also received a lot when he was young. It's a pity that she was so focused on studying medicine that she had no time to be distracted and didn't pay attention to any of them." Bai Banxia felt a little regretful.
, the "master" she calls is naturally her previous life.
She was so focused on studying medicine that she never experienced first love, secret love, or ambiguity, and missed the most innocent green years.
"Wang Taohua, do you have any impression?" Bai Banxia asked.
Qi Zhen frowned, "It's too ugly, stupid, and embarrassing."
Bai Banxia found that he spoke very little when he was unhappy, but she could already get the meaning of his three words.
It means that Wang Taohua is ugly and stupid, forget it, he feels embarrassed.
Bai Banxia put away the love letter, "If you don't want to read it, don't read it. I'll keep this as evidence."
Qi Zhen opened his mouth, but after all he didn't insist on letting her burn it. He just went out to continue working with a dark face.
When the acupuncture was given in the evening, Qi Zhen still had a dark face and said nothing. Bai Banxia asked about the condition of his eyes, but he only gave a brief answer.
"By the way, why aren't you happy? Isn't it because we read your love letter?" Bai Banxia couldn't help but ask after holding it in for a long time.
"No." Qi Zhen frowned, his face getting darker, "Don't mention it again."
Bai Banxia raised her hands in surrender, "Okay, okay, don't mention it."
Suddenly, Qi Zhen's ears twitched, "There are more wolves on the mountain."
There was a wolf quarrel for a few days, and it finally calmed down, but the wolf came again?
Sure enough, by the time Bai Banxia was removing the needle from Qi Zhen, he could clearly hear the howling of wolves coming from the direction of the back mountain.
Soon Zhang An beat the gong in the village and called each family to send a man to watch the night.
Qi Zhen stood up and said, "I'll go."
When he walked to the yard, his uncle Bai Shan was about to go out. Bai Banxia hurriedly called to his uncle.
"Uncle, Qi Zhen said that you worked too hard in the fields during the day and asked you to take a rest while he went." She said to Bai Shan.
Bai Tian also said: "Brother, take a break and let them go."
Bai Shan nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Qi."
"It should be." Qi Zhen responded and went out.
Bai Banxia thought for a while and said, "Mom, dad, we have to set up a stall tomorrow morning. After you finish your work, go to bed early. I'll go take a look and come back."
When Bai Tian heard that his daughter was going, he wanted to follow, but Bai Banxia glared at him, "Dad, why don't you forget about the pain in your left arm without hanging it?"
"Okay, okay, I'll just work at home honestly."
When Bai Banxia went out, he saw Qi Zhen waiting not far away and heard her say that she wanted to go.
She walked up to him, and he suddenly reached out and pulled her sleeve.
"Can't you see it?" she asked.
"It's hard to see clearly at night," Qi Zhen said without blinking.
Bai Banxia became worried, "If you had told me earlier, I shouldn't have let you do night watch."
"It's okay, I can hear you." Qi Zhen said.
The two of them went to the gathering place. A fence had been set up at the foot of the mountain, and Zhang An arranged for someone to guard it with a bamboo crossbow.
"Banxia, Qizhen, you are here." Zhang An greeted him with a smile.
Bai Banxia greeted him and looked around.
Most families in the village sent a man, the older ones were over forty, and the youngest were seventeen or eighteen.
"With these bamboo crossbows, it is enough for each family to send one person to watch the night, which greatly saves the manpower of our village." Zhang An boasted.
Bai Banxia nodded, "Be careful when using it. Don't accidentally hurt your own people when you panic."
"Okay, I'll stress it to them," Zhang An said.
The wolf howled louder again, and looking into the distance you could already see some green wolf eyes, hiding in the darkness and waiting for opportunities.
Everyone kept watch for a long time. It was late at night, and the wolf did not approach. It seemed to have become quiet again, and many people dozed off.
Suddenly, Qi Zhen started to move and shouted sternly: "Here we come!"
He rushed over, picked up a bamboo crossbow on the ground, pulled the trigger, and with a whoosh, a bamboo arrow shot into the distance.
Zhang An reacted and hurriedly threw the torch out.
The fire illuminated the distance, and a wolf was seen falling to the ground after being hit by an arrow. Seven or eight wolves next to it stopped, each with a fierce look in their eyes and howling ferociously.
"Good fellow, if we had let them rush in just now, the scene would have been so chaotic that it would be difficult to shoot the crossbow. These beasts are about to become sperm." Zhang An said with some fear.
Qi Zhen loaded a crossbow arrow again, and a whooshing sound pierced the air. Several wolves quickly dodged, and the arrow hit the injured wolf's neck. It grunted twice and fell to the ground.
"Okay!" Everyone shouted happily. This was the first wolf they had killed in these days of guarding against wolves.
Bai Banxia walked up to Qi Zhen and slapped him on the shoulder, "This is pretty accurate. Are you saying you can't see clearly at night?"
"Good times and bad." Qi Zhen continued to lie with a serious face, without blinking an eyelid.
Bai Banxia still wanted to say something to him, but the wolf had already retreated. Everyone happily gathered around and praised Qi Zhen.
"If it weren't for this young man from the Lao Bai family, we would be afraid of being attacked by wolves, so we really can't relax."
"His archery skills are really accurate. You bamboo crossbowmen should learn from him."
Everyone's compliments didn't make Qi Zhen's expression change at all. Bai Banxia couldn't help but tug on his sleeves and reminded him in a low voice: "Don't be so stern, just smile a little."
"Oh." Qi Zhen twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled so reluctantly.
But the next second, the corners of his lips lowered again, and his brows knitted together.
Bai Banxia followed his gaze and couldn't help but be stunned.
