Farming with medicine

Chapter 22
"I've told her thousands of times, don't gamble," Osmanthus cried anxiously, it was Anping's life-saving money, and it was all in vain if it fell into the hands of these rotten gamblers.

In the past few years, the mother-in-law of the Zhang family also used the money to gamble every year. The family has been able to make ends meet from being a wealthy family until selling almost all of their property, all because of her love of gambling.

Cardamom carefully looked at the man from head to toe, remembering the appearance of this gambler, with a horse face and five or five bodies, "Mother, how do you say the old saying, if you want to have long legs and short legs, you will be lazy, don't you?" Urgent, wait for me to get the money back later, and let those rotten gamblers spit out money."

Osmanthus wiped her tears and sighed, "Forget it, if you give me the money, it will be a disaster relief. You don't want to mess with those people, they are all bastards who are just waiting to die. We would rather not have money than provoke them. "Osmanthus fragrans urged repeatedly, forcing Dou Kou to promise not to pay for it.

This money is not only her own, but also Qi Tengmiao's, not to mention that the money will be used to redeem the tokens pawned by her mother.

Osmanthus was breastfeeding the baby, Cardamom came in from the outside, and she just rubbed against her without saying a word, Osmanthus just acted like Cardamom was acting like a baby, coaxing her gently to go outside to help Lonicera clean up the farm tools, "Come on tomorrow, let's go to the mountains Cultivate wasteland at the foot, the land at home is not allowed to be planted, and there is always no one at the foot of the mountain.”

Dou Ko secretly took the pawnshop ticket from mother's arms and ran out to help Liandong tidy up. Seeing mother and father chatting and laughing in the house, she prepared to sneak away.

Liandong also dropped the work in hand and followed.

"Go back, you'll be discovered later, and you can still tell me a lie," Cardamom looked in the direction of home as he walked, and after making sure no one came out, he began to drive Honeysuckle back, "It's useless for you to follow, instead, let me tie my hands and feet of."

"Doumeng, you are so young, I can protect you by following you," Lian Dong lowered her head and rubbed the hem of her clothes, but refused to leave, "I won't help, trust me."

She insisted on pushing people away, until Liandong took out the fire bag from behind, and Cardamom stopped talking. Liandong was really thoughtful. She was a newcomer in ancient times, and she didn't think well about many things.

"Then you have to listen to me, if I tell you to run, you run, you know?" Cardamom climbed over a mountain ridge, pointed to the village in the gentle area below the mountain ridge and declared again, "I say run, you run, understand ? Otherwise, I will not be able to save you if you are in danger."

Liandong nodded nervously, "Yeah."

Cardamom and honeysuckle went down the narrow path, shaking out a small cloth bag from their body as they walked, carefully stuffing the powder into the crevices of their nails, not missing a single one of their ten fingers.

"What are you going to do?" Lonicera was hidden behind the firewood at the corner of the street by Cardamom, still worried that such a small Cardamom would go to the gambling house by herself, "You teach me the way, I will go, in case I am found out, I will run fast."

Cardamom shook his head, "You can't get in, do you see the hole under that door, I got through just right, if it were you, it might be stuck."

After the honeysuckle was settled, the sky was getting dark, and Cardamom waited patiently for the sky to get dark and the lanterns of the casino to light up, before sneaking into the back through the hole in the door.

Liandong stirred her clothes and stared intently at the door through which Cardamom had entered, and waited and waited for an hour, but it was completely dark, and Cardamom could not be seen coming out of it.

She was at a loss hiding behind the firewood, and all the people who came in and out were stout men with bare chests and backs, or skinny smokers.

Liandong felt that something was going to happen, so she ran back along the same road when the fire was lit, and she wanted to go back and find someone to save Doukou.

Qi Tengmiao, who had made an appointment with Dou Kou to enter the county tonight, also found Dou Kou's house, just in time to see a figure stumbling into Dou Kou's house, and took a closer look at the rescued maid from the county government.

He grabbed it and quickly asked, "What happened?"

Lonicera panted heavily, "Cardamom, something happened to Cardamom, it's in the next village."

Qi Tengmiao let go of Liandong's hand and ran forward. Seeing that Liandong didn't keep up, he turned around and pulled her past, and ran towards the mountain ridge.

There is only a mountain ridge between the two villages, and Qi Tengmiao ran so fast that Lonicera could not keep up. He was anxious, picked up Lonicera, and rushed down the narrow path. Lonicera was so frightened that he covered his eyes and dared not look, as the wind whistled in his ears .

"where?"

Liandong finally realized that he was going down the mountain when he stepped on the hard ground. He quickly pointed to a casino in front of him and said, "That's it, the one with the lanterns on."

Qi Tengmiao asked Liandong to stay here, and he went in to find someone.

The gambling house was bustling and noisy. Men who had been busy for a day liked to come and play for a while. Among them were some old ladies who were as old as the Zhang family's mother-in-law and waited for the game to come back. The clerk stopped him, "Little brother, do you want two?"

Qi Tengmiao raised his hand with a cold face to block the clerk's enthusiasm. The clerk saw that something was wrong, and waved his hand, and three strong men blocked his way, "Little brother, if you want to play, go outside to bet, and then go inside, but It's not a place you should break into, don't say my brothers didn't remind you."

Cardamom was hiding behind the door behind these guys, and heard Qi Tengmiao's voice stomping her feet angrily. It would be a waste of help if she came here at this time. She just found a chance to throw laxatives into these people's food, and now she is waiting for the effect of the medicine to take effect. She can sneak away without anyone noticing after taking the silver.

Qi Tengmiao didn't know how to turn his head. After listening to Liandong's words, he thought that these people had detained Cardamom. The more they stopped him, the more he wanted to break in. Cardamom was afraid that he would make things worse, so she slipped out through the crack of the door. Pull Qi Tengmiao and run outside.

"Where is the child, go, show me if there are any more behind?"

The buddy divided into two groups, one group went to chase and the other group went to the backyard to check the situation.

Seeing that Cardamom was fine, Qi Tengmiao happily picked her up and ran away.

Cardamom was so pissed off by him, "You're still laughing, we'll be beaten if we're caught up."

Relying on his own strength, Qi Tengmiao took the honeysuckle one by one and ran up the mountain ridge together.

"Okay, okay, don't run away, the medicine is working," Cardamom looked at the two figures who were chasing up, yes, some of them got into the nearby woods and knew the power of the laxative was coming, "Let's go, take the silver go."

Qi Tengmiao couldn't hold back Cardamom, so he could only let her go.

The people in the gambling shop are all huddled together to fight for the latrines. Dou Ko swaggered and took the money that grandma gave to the bad gambler from the accountant's desk, and then slipped away with Qi Tengmiao without anyone noticing it.

Ghosts were crying and howling in the casino, "If I catch who put the laxatives, I have to kill him, hey, get out of here, it's my turn."

The three of them walked back slowly this time, and Liandong lit a torch to illuminate the group of people, and it was only then that Cardamom realized that one side of Qi Tengmiao's face was red and swollen, and there was an obvious slap mark.
