Chapter 65 Losing the Laundry

"Elder Sister, Dad asked me to call you back to eat." Dayan's voice called out at the right time.

Xu Dayan glanced at Xia Jiu, got up and walked out.

"Did you catch the prey?" Xu Dayan asked.

"I got it." Dayan nodded and stretched out two fingers. "Two pheasants, grandma wanted to keep one, so I stewed all of them."

I went there for a whole day and came back with two pheasants. In fact... it was not bad.

It's just that Dayan glanced at his eldest sister and thought about it again. He felt that his father was useless. He ate so much for nothing, grew so big for nothing, and lost his strength for nothing.

I couldn't help but whispered to Xu Dayan: "Sister, I think if I go up the mountain too, maybe I can catch two pheasants."

Xu Dayan rubbed the wild goose's head vigorously a few times, until she was about to explode, and then said: "Don't mess around, there are many wild boars on the back mountain, if you go, it's like going to die."

In fact, although Yuwei Village has beautiful mountains and rivers, it is not suitable for human beings at all. Wild animals may come down the mountain at any time, and poisonous snakes can be seen everywhere. It is extremely dangerous to stay in the village, let alone go up the mountain.

Don't make things serious, maybe this little girl will be brave enough to go up the mountain.

"Don't press my head all the time, I know you're jealous that I'm growing fast, and I'll be taller than you soon." Dayan looks a lot like Shan Shi, who is 1.6 meters five, and if she eats well, she will definitely be taller than Shan Shi High, maybe it can be more than 1.7 meters long, after all, Xu Laosan is 1.8 meters eight.

The corner of Xu Dayan's mouth twitched a few times, and he rubbed it again before retracting his hand.

"It's good to be tall, just look at your father." Xu Dayan not only looks like Mrs. Xu, but also has a similar height. The atavistic genes are not usually strong, and they are already 16 years old. No matter what The length is not much higher.

1.6 meters is not short, Xu Dayan can only comfort himself like this.

Dayan looked serious: "That's your father too!"

Xu Dayan: ...

Well, that's her father too, there's nothing wrong with that.

I don't know if it's for showing off, or to show how tall he is as a father, Xu Laosan especially wants the eldest daughter to worship him.

"Come on big smoke, Dad went up the mountain to hunt pheasants, and I'll give you chicken to eat later." Xu Laosan's original words should be 'follow dad and have meat to eat'.

Xu Dayan glanced at Xu Laosan, the clothes on his body were torn, and he probably hadn't changed his clothes since he came back.

I don't know what happened on the mountain to make the clothes like this.

Anyway, no matter how rotten the clothes are, it's impossible to throw them away. It's estimated that Shan's arm will be healed before it can be mended.

Xu Dayan dragged the geese by the pigtails and walked over, saying: "I guess there will be a chicken head and two pairs of chicken feet."

Dayan snatched the pigtail back: "I guess there are only two pairs of chicken feet."

Xu Laosan's smile froze all of a sudden, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, subconsciously wanting to refute something.

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them unconsciously.

He was in a trance for a moment, as if he remembered something, but he couldn't remember it.

Every time there is meat to eat at home, the meal may be a little more, but the meat is not seen much.If you eat it together, you can sandwich some meat. After eating it separately, it seems that you have only eaten chicken feet, not even the chicken head.

Seeing that the two daughters were still betting, even the youngest son joined in at some point, and the bet was half a chicken head and two pairs of chicken feet.

Xu Laosan lowered his head dumbly, and wiped the ruined skirt uneasily.

Snapped!
The bet is placed.

"The one who loses does the laundry, don't think that you can renege on it at a young age!"

"It's not bad, whoever is bad is a puppy."

"Why don't you just wash your clothes? As if no one has washed them before, come on, who is afraid of whom!"

... The three siblings made a bet. The loser would have to wash clothes for seven days, and if he didn't wash clothes, he would have a catty of meat for a day. The latter must be aimed at Xu Dayan.

But for Xu Dayan, this is not a problem at all.

The three siblings turned their heads and went back to the house, leaving Xu and San alone in a mess, twitching, wanting to talk about something, but didn't know how to speak.

As soon as he gritted his teeth and made a decision, he went to get the dinner himself, and he didn't believe that he couldn't get meat.

From the beginning of boiling water to scald the pheasant feathers, Mrs. Xu stayed in the kitchen, her eyes fixed on her, to prevent anyone from hiding or eating them.

When the chicken is stewed, fill almost half of it first, and don't care how to divide the rest.

Regardless of the size of the pheasant, it is only a little over two catties after plucking its feathers and guts, and there is little meat in the house. This is not enough for three people in the house. In fact, one person can eat one .

Xu Laosan made up his mind to enter the kitchen, and let Yao Yao go away as soon as he entered the door.

"Third brother, don't be too busy. Go to the yard and pull some green onions. Put some green onions in the chicken soup." Jin Shi took a look at Shi Shi and immediately shouted.

Xu Laosan didn't think much, turned his head and went to the yard, and honestly pulled up the onion.

After the onions were brought back, everyone in the kitchen was gone, and Sanfang's meals were packed and placed there.

Open the soup can and look inside, the green onion is floating on it.I used a spoon to scoop it up again and again, but there was not even a piece of meat at all, only half a chicken head and four chicken feet.

Third Xu: ...

Hehe, my children are so smart that they all guessed about the same... But my son is the smartest, and his words are not bad at all.

Xu Laosan twitched the corners of his mouth and tried to smile a few times, but he didn't laugh out loud.

After staring at the soup can for a while, the whole person became discouraged, filled it up listlessly, and walked back to the third room with the basket in his hands.

"Come on, eat, this chicken soup is quite thick, come and have a sip." Xu Laosan laughed a few times, his expression extremely awkward.

Fortunately, I didn't boast about Haikou, otherwise I don't know where to lose face.

"You're injured, drink more tonic." He quickly served Shan a bowl, which contained half a chicken head and a chicken paw.

Immediately afterwards, three more bowls were filled, each with a chicken foot.

The soup pot suddenly bottomed out, and there was almost no meat residue in it.

Gouwa stepped on the stool and looked into the soup pot, excitedly said: "I won, I won, I won the eldest sister, you and the second sister lost, and I have to do laundry."

Dayan rolled his eyes: "Cut, isn't it just washing clothes? What's so difficult about what you do often."

When it was over, the younger sister and brother glanced at Xu Dayan, the meaning was very obvious.

Laundry is free, and a catty of meat a day is enough.

Xu Dayan smiled but said nothing, meat, it's a trivial matter, you can eat as much as you want.

Xu Laosan had a mouthful of old blood in his throat, endured and endured, and knocked Gouwa on the head with his chopsticks: "Win what to win? If you are a big fart, you know how to gamble. Didn't you keep arguing for meat? Eat it quickly, If it’s not enough for Dad to fight up the mountain, I’m sure you won’t be able to starve.”

When he said the last sentence, he looked at the siblings, which was to guarantee something.

It's just that the siblings didn't know if they didn't understand it, or they didn't expect it at all. They couldn't see any concern on their faces, let alone any excitement or admiration for him.
