Chapter 73

An Ning's question made Jiang Xia's face turn ugly, and his eyes wandered to Rhubarb who was lying on the side.

But when he saw the wound on Da Huang's back, his annoyed attitude softened, and he squatted beside Da Huang.

"Let me see."

Jiang Xia checked Rhubarb's wound, it should be a skin trauma, Rhubarb ran fast, the wound was just scratched, not too deep.

"Go home and give you medicine."

Jiang Xia hugged Rhubarb's head, first rubbed it, and then patted it gently.

"Remember, don't grab honey with the bear next time."

"Woo--"

Rhubarb rubbed against Jiang Xia with aggrieved eyes, who is it for.

The aggrieved Rhubarb secretly glanced at An Ning.

"Got it, got it, you are looking for honey for me, I don't blame you, I just let you see clearly, we can't fight."

Rhubarb, who was hugged by Jiang Xia, whined even lower.

Jiang Xia stood up and thanked An Ning somewhat formally.

"Thank you for saving me and Rhubarb."

"You're welcome, you also jumped into the river to save me last time."

Jiang Xia shrugged and said, "That's right, it's even."

"I'm going down the mountain, how about you?"

An Ning glanced at the sky, shook her head and said, "I'm walking."

"Okay, be careful, run away if you can't fight, I believe you should be fine."

"Of course I have no problem."

After An Ning answered naturally, she turned and went into the woods.

Jiang Xia, who was behind, was teased again, but he shook his head and laughed.

"Hey, those who can't be beaten have no right to speak."

Jiang Xia called Rhubarb down the mountain, and said to himself: "I can't fight, I can't compare in strength, I can't run, what else can I do?"

"In these aspects, generally speaking, the physical fitness is not enough, what about the brain?"

Unwilling to admit defeat, Jiang Xia went down the mountain muttering, and the first thing he did when he got home was to disinfect and apply medicine to the rhubarb.

Grandpa Jiang Xia looked at the injured Rhubarb, feeling very distressed, and asked the reason and process of the incident.

"I want to thank the girl from An's family. You can go to the town to buy some gifts later. Don't buy too much. They won't accept it. Last time they sent over two chickens and thirty eggs."

The old man thought for a while and said, "You buy ten catties of pork, and then buy two bags of pastries and two bags of candies, and send them to An's family."

Jiang Xia readily agreed, and set off immediately, to buy good pork only by going early.

On the other side, An Ning continued to stay on the mountain for a while, but the voice of the brown bear was probably too loud, and the mountain today was very quiet.

In the end, she only killed two rabbits and carried them down the mountain.

This time, An Ning went straight back to An's house with the rabbit and handed it over to An Guoqing.

"It's quite fat." An Guoqing took a closer look at the rabbit ears.

"Hey, one male and one female, how about we raise them for a few days?"

"Brother, you can raise it if you want, I have no objection."

An Guoqing glanced at An Sancheng, and An Sancheng agreed.

An Guoqing happily carried two rabbits, first took a basket, and put them upside down in it. As for himself, he went to study and build a nest for the rabbits.

An Ning simply went to help.

"Brother, how do we go about it?"

"I'll find some stones in a while and pave the ground. This thing digs holes and can't be placed on the ground."

"It's fine to cover it with a board outside. Rabbits are the best at giving birth."

When An Guoqing said these things again, he was very happy and confident.

"By the way, little girl, I discussed with dad about the house for taking a bath. Can I give you a house on the south side? Didn't you say you want to be next to the house?"

"Yes, that's fine."

As soon as she mentioned the bathroom, An Ning remembered that she also bought two large tin buckets, which she wanted to use to hold water for bathing.

"Dad and I will come back early this afternoon, and I will fix it for you when we come back."

An Ning nodded and said, "I'll go carry the stone back."

"Huh? That's fine too."

An Guoqing didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The little girl is so energetic, so it's okay.

After An's family had breakfast, An Sancheng and An Guoqing went to the field, An Ning went to carry stones, and An Guoming went to the town to find a way out.

At noon, everyone went home from the field and had a rest.

Now that the work of rushing to water the water is over, there is nothing too important to do, so there will be more rest time at noon.

When An Ning entered the yard, he glanced suspiciously, and realized that he had gone the right way.

But why is Jiang Xia here?

Why did he have such a good conversation with Lin Cuihua?

Is this polite and humble Jiang Xia the Jiang Xia she knows?

"Mom, I'm back."

"An Ning, I'm back, Jiang Xia came to thank you for helping me on the mountain."

Lin Cuihua's words reminded An Ning that if Lin Cuihua knew about the fight with the brown bear, her expression would not be so calm.

"That's right, if it weren't for An Ning, I would be trapped in a trap."

Jiang Xia's words made An Ning follow the conversation between the two.

"It just happened to meet, it's not a big deal."

An Ning glanced at Jiang Xia, what is he happy about?
What is Jiang Xia happy about?
He was glad that he had found An Ning's weakness.

It's not very accurate to say that it's a weakness, but he is indeed a bit optimistic about it, so it turns out that she also has fears.

"That's right, just for this matter, I really can't take these things if you take them, you can take them back." Lin Cuihua brought up this topic again.

"The last time you jumped into the river to save someone, it was too late for us to thank you. An Ning really doesn't deserve these things. Hurry up and take them back."

An Ning looked aside, pork, dim sum, and candy, there are really a lot.

But she accepted it and didn't feel ashamed of it.

However, according to the previous statement, it is indeed not possible.

"Yes, take it back, I didn't do anything."

An Ning backed down again, weakening what she did on the mountain, which made Jiang Xia chuckle secretly.

She is like a child who has done something wrong and keeps covering herself up.

But she obviously did something good.

"Auntie, take it. You don't know how deep the trap is. It's too dangerous. My rhubarb was injured."

"In the mountains, my voice was broken. Only An Ning came over. This is a life-saving grace. Otherwise, if I meet a brown bear or something in such a big mountain, it will be over."

Jiang Xia, who was talking, noticed that An Ning became nervous when he was talking about brown bears.

There was a faint hint of joy in his heart, but he didn't say any more.

An Ning gave Jiang Xia a half-threatening look, and simply changed her position to persuade Lin Cuihua.

"Mom, you can accept it, Jiang Xia doesn't like to owe favors."

Lin Cuihua was in a dilemma, she hadn't made a decision yet, An Sancheng came back.

She could be considered to have found the backbone, An Sancheng asked again, the same rhetoric, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not.

Anyway, what Jiang Xia sent was kept.

"Jiang Xia, have a bite here."

Lin Cuihua stayed for dinner, Jiang Xia naturally couldn't agree, excused that there was still grandpa at home, politely said goodbye to An's family, and left.
