The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 18

How Jiujiu got back to the kitchen is not important anymore.

However, when she stood at the door of the small kitchen yard, she didn't need to push the two doors open with her hands, the door opened automatically from the inside, and it opened straight and straight at once.She was greeted by all the members of the kitchen who she had met and who had not.Including Widow Chen, who is in charge of the kitchen.

At this time, Widow Chen didn't hold the cane in her hand, but her appearance still surprised Bai Jiujiu.Because she was sitting on the bench facing the door, holding a wooden board as long as an arm in her hand.

"Hmph, where do you think my kitchen is? You can come and go whenever you want! You even brought my old lady a cow!" Widow Chen's already shrill voice yelled in the quiet small yard in the middle of the night, and it was particularly piercing. .

"No!" Bai Jiujiu was twitched by her sudden questioning, and immediately denied it reflexively.

"No? The firewood was thrown all over the ground and no one took care of it, but you and the ox cart disappeared! How dare you say no?" Widow Chen stood up from the bench.

"I, I mean, I come and go whenever I want to." Jiujiu was stunned by Widow Chen's success again, and the key was the stick in her hand.

"Then where have you been dragging the bullock cart in the middle of the night? The big guys thought you had escaped, and they searched all over the yard. They just went to the police to arrest you!"

Widow Chen's anger is not because she has heard that Bai Jiujiu has succeeded in angering a certain girl in Chunyue Building again, but because she is very angry because her sweet dream was woken up, and the second is that Bai Jiujiu has not done anything today. It's fine to get a coolie, but he even lost a cow!The feeling of anger and pain in her heart made her wish she could destroy Jiujiu.

Seeing that the wooden board much wider than the palm was about to fall heavily on her body, Jiujiu dodged and dodged.This made Widow Chen even more angry.

"Sister, calm down, calm down!"

Bai Jiujiu knew that running away like this was not an option. After all, the other party had many people and he had only two legs, so he would be caught by them soon.So while running, he hurriedly yelled and begged for mercy.

But Widow Chen was so angry this time, even her sweet words could not quench her anger, and she chased and beat her all the way holding the wooden board.

After Jiujiu ran down the entire yard, she suddenly remembered something.

"Where is the car? Where is the car that came back with me?" I finally picked up so many branches, where did they go?

"You little girl, you took the only ox cart out of the kitchen and you're too shy to pick it up! See if I don't beat you to death!"

"No! I obviously brought the ox cart back."

In desperation, Bai Jiujiu turned around and explained.Unexpectedly, it was such a hesitation at the foot that Widow Chen chased her up.Seeing that the powerful wooden plank was about to hit Bai Jiujiu's shoulder, a strong and rough hand helped her block it.

"You are stupid, Liu San! She lost your cow and you still..." Widow Chen glared at the honest man Liu San angrily, and stopped to catch her breath.

As for Bai Jiujiu, she also hurriedly stepped aside, keeping a safe distance from Widow Chen.

But Liu San, who was hit by a board, said: "Aunt Chen, it's all my fault. I forgot to tell you. The cow is not lost. It was grazed by my cowshed."

Widow Chen looked at Liu San in disbelief: "What, when did this cow enter the yard?" Ha, she didn't know when the cow left, and she didn't even know when the cow came back.Do you think she, Widow Chen, is a vegetarian?
Seeing the suspicious eyes of Widow Chen, Liu San immediately nodded to confirm, while repeating: "The cow is in the cowshed, it is really in the cowshed. I led it there myself."

Bai Jiujiu didn't understand that Liu San was helping her now, she just felt that this cow was not important to her.What matters is that the car with which she has a direct relationship is gone.That is a car full of firewood that can be thrown directly into the stove to start a fire without chopping!

"Where is the car, where is the car dragged by the ox?"

"Unloaded, put it in a pile with firewood." Liu San answered in time this time, and blurted out before Widow Chen was angry at Jiujiu.

Regardless of the surprised eyes of the other two, Jiujiu ran over with a bang.No, the branches that she and the apprentice boy had picked up for more than an hour were neatly piled up against the wall.

"Thank you, brother Liu San is really a good man!" Jiujiu cheered happily and thanked Liu San who was still at the gate of the courtyard.

"Yo, Liu San, when did you accept her as a girl? A good guy? If there are so many people in our kitchen who are all bad guys, you, Liu San, are the only ones who are good." Widow Chen sneered, and said a bitter sentence to the honest Liu San , "Are you crazy about your daughter-in-law, and just come and help others with a little girl?"

"No, no, I'm not stupid enough to help her."

Liu San has been working under Widow Chen for not eight years, but five years. No matter how stupid or naive, she still knows a little bit about Widow Chen's temper.In this yard, hardworking and capable hands and feet are expected, and it is also possible for men and men or women and women to help each other. The taboo is that a man cannot casually help women other than her.Otherwise, it would be trivial to be ridiculed and ridiculed, and the deduction of wages in various names would be accepted.

"Is it?"

Widow Chen walked up to Liu San, poked her chest at the honest and honest man, and said in a very slow and gentle tone: "You know exactly where his cattle are and where his carts are. Could it be that, You went to bring the ox cart back?"

Liu San's chest was itchy from being poked, but he knew that Widow Chen had something to say, so he didn't dare to laugh out loud, and only replied with a smile from time to time: "Aunt Chen, you really misunderstood. Liu San is just I think it’s wrong for her not to say hello when she goes out, but the car full of firewood is worth some money.”

Seeing Widow Chen's puzzled eyes, Liu San explained to her what was on the ox cart.

Sure enough, Widow Chen's elongated face slowly revealed a smile: "So, she really saved me money?"

"Yeah, it's just that the cow has worked hard." Liu San felt sorry for the cow he raised since he was a child.

"The cow is so strong, you don't want to give up a piece of wool!" Widow Chen glared at him, "The cow will not die after going out for a run. Pulling a cart is not pulling it!"

"Hehe, that's right. Aunt Chen is smarter than me." Liu San scratched his head and smirked.
